Young hero, please stay! !

Chapter 37 Hundreds of ghosts board the ship!

In the middle of the night, the three-story ferry was still going down the Guanghan River. The boss of the boat was sitting on the bow and smoking a dry pipe. The tobacco in the pot gave off a little light. He looked down at the increasingly violent turbulence of the river under his feet and frowned. Know what to think.

Seeing that his daughter had brought a piece of clothing to keep out the cold, a smile appeared on the boat boss's face: "You girl, you don't listen to me when I tell you to stay at home. You insist on coming to the river with me to endure this hardship. Every time Your mother will nag me hard when I get home."

The girl named Xu Baimei smiled mischievously and snatched the cigarette pouch from the boat boss's hand: "Mom said she won't let you smoke, but don't you always hide and smoke in secret?"

The boss of the ship smiled honestly and scolded: "You are the only girl who has been taking care of me all day long, so that no one listens to what I say on this ship."

The girl smiled, walked gently behind her father, and began to rub his shoulders: "Dad, are you staying up so late because you are worried about the strange things that happened during this time?"

The boat boss nodded: "It's not easy to do business on the water recently. The Shuilong Gang and the Haihe Gang are famous around Xiangyang, but didn't they all die on the river overnight? I heard they were from within the river. The unjust ghost came and claimed his life, and he said it was an enemy seeking revenge, which made all those who were struggling to make a living on the river panic."

"Dad, don't worry. We have been on the river for many years. Have we ever encountered any ghosts?"

"Girl, don't talk nonsense. We who rely on water to make a living would rather believe it than believe it. If you talk nonsense, girl, be careful of getting into trouble!"

The girl said 'oh' and said coquettishly to her father: "Dad, when you get home, remember to buy that jade bracelet for your mother."

The boss of the ship patted his daughter's hand kindly and said dotingly: "I know, little housekeeper!"

At the moment when a father is kind and a son is filial, the ferry boat under his feet seemed to have hit a rock. The boat boss hurriedly got up and looked at the dark river water under his feet, his face turned pale!

"Escape! Escape!"

In the cabin, Meng You and the little Taoist priest were also awakened by the violent shaking. Adao and Xie Gou were sleeping soundly. They also hurriedly ran out of the cabin and saw that the guards on the boat had begun to resist the attack of the water ghost!

The surface of the river beneath your feet is like thousands of carps passing by, and they are all densely packed with water ghosts exuding ghostly aura!They're trying to board the ship!

The other passengers had never seen such a scene before. They were so frightened that they hid in the cabin. One by one, they knelt on the ground and prayed to gods and Buddhas, praying that they could successfully escape this disaster!
Most of the guards raised by the Zhou family were warriors from the third and fourth floors. On weekdays, it was enough to protect the ferry from being plundered, but suddenly faced with countless evil spirits boarding the ship, they now seemed a little stretched.

Although the little Taoist priest is usually kind to everyone, and I don't see him blushing with anyone, but whenever he encounters troubles caused by demons, he is always the first to rush forward.

But this was the first time the little Taoist saw such a scene. Sweat was dripping from his forehead. He quickly opened the storage bag given to him by the Confucian gentleman before and sharpened his gun before the battle to see how he could save the lives of the people in the boat.

Naturally, Meng You would not sit idly by. Although he had to suppress the death energy in his body during these days, he was overqualified to deal with these unconscious ghosts.

But there was one person who had been standing on the deck early. It was the knight from the rivers and lakes before. He was holding an ordinary long knife worth several taels of silver in both hands, standing on the bow of the ship, and waving it constantly!

Seeing that the friend he had just met before turned out to be very powerful, the Jianghu Ranger was happy and said happily: "Brother, your skills are good. I thought I would have to face these ghosts alone tonight, so I was ready to jump off the ship." Get ready to escape!"

Meng You used his fist to fight off the ghost. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Remember to call me when you run away. I don't want to die here."

"It's easy to talk about. I don't think my brother is planning to run away."

"Each each other."

The ranger swung his sword to repel several ghosts that were about to jump onto the deck, and sighed: "This is not a solution. If we don't find a solution, we will be killed sooner or later? I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to go home." When something like this happens, do you think my life is too hard?"

The ranger kept talking and moving his hands naturally. It was a bit fanciful to have more than a dozen people trying to guard this huge three-story ferry.

The figures of Meng You and the Jianghu Ranger kept flashing, but when the east and west walls were demolished, the water ghosts leaked. They tried their best, but they couldn't completely stop the water ghosts.

Meng You said anxiously: "I can't think of a way! I can't stand it anymore! We won't be able to survive even if we jump off the ship by then!"

The little Taoist priest sat on the deck, took out a few pieces of yellow paper from the book box, bit his fingers, and drew symbols on the yellow paper with blood that were difficult for ordinary people to understand.

"Tape them all around the ferry!" The little Taoist priest stood up in a hurry, handed the four talismans to Meng You and the Jianghu Rangers, and then quickly climbed to the top of the ferry by himself, and carefully took out a talisman from his arms. Some old talismans!

"Master! It's okay to trick the disciples on weekdays, but now it's urgent. Master, please protect and protect the disciples!" The little Taoist priest muttered, gritted his teeth, and tore the worn-out talisman in half!
The moment the talisman was broken, a golden light shot into the sky, like a small sun in the dark night. Four identical golden rays came from around the ferry and connected to the golden talisman!
boom!
A bright and upright aura burst out, and the dense group of water ghosts like tarsal maggots were scattered. A golden light curtain emitted from the golden talisman, tightly wrapping the ferry!
The little Taoist priest slumped down on the ferry, sweating profusely, with a smile on his pale face. It seemed that the master really didn't lie to him this time.

In the past sixty years in Longhu Mountain, only two people have been expelled from the Tianshi Mansion.

It just so happened that they were a master and apprentice pair.

Meng You and the knight jumped onto the roof of the boat and stood beside the little Taoist priest.

The Jianghu Ranger looked at the little Taoist priest with some surprise, and said: "The way of talismans? I didn't expect that this brother is also a Qi practitioner. He can achieve such achievements in the talismans at such a young age. He will definitely be a master in the future. !”

The little Taoist priest waved his hands a little shyly, but before he could explain anything, the Jianghu Ranger put his arm around his shoulders and said mysteriously: "Brother, do you have any more talismans? Give me two, and wait for me to go home." If you do, stick it at the door of the courtyard to ensure that no ghosts can enter!"

The little Taoist priest shook his head. The four talismans just now were painted with his essence and blood, and now he really couldn't squeeze out a drop.

The Jianghu Ranger didn't feel any pity at all, he just looked around: "Brother, those water ghosts are still watching eagerly from the side."

Hearing this, the three of them looked down and saw that the densely packed water ghosts were looking around the ferry with their heads exposed.

The little Taoist priest also frowned: "It stands to reason that these talismans should be inherently capable of restraining evil spirits, and evil spirits cannot avoid them. However, although these water ghosts are afraid of talismans, they still have the courage to follow around the ferry."

Meng You knew what the little Taoist meant and said softly: "You mean, there is something on this ferry that is attracting these water ghosts."

"In other words, someone is controlling these water ghosts," the ranger added while clasping his hands.Meng You and the ranger looked at each other, and they both saw a sense of sympathy in each other's eyes.

Now that the three of them had discovered the clue, they hurriedly ran to the first floor. The boss of the ship was currently sitting on the deck with a pale face, his eyes dull.

"Uncle Xu, are there any suspicious people or objects on the ship this time?"

After asking three times in a row, the ship boss was indifferent.

The ranger was helpless, and just about to continue asking, he saw Xu Baimei walking out of the cabin with a pale face, obviously also very frightened.

"I remember an old woman holding a little baby when we boarded the ship. She didn't cry or make a fuss. She said it was her grandson. I didn't take it seriously at the time. Now that I think about it, maybe she is the person you are looking for."

The ranger looked at Xu Baimei's pale face and said with some distress: "Bai Mei, are you okay?"

Xu Baimei shook her head and took half a step back: "Mr. Zhou, please respect yourself."

The ranger's body suddenly froze, and he looked at the woman who was deliberately keeping a distance from him, with a look of distress on his face.

There is a reason for everything in the world, but there is no reason for love.

Xu Baimei nodded towards Meng You and the little Taoist priest, and said gratefully: "Two more of you can help, otherwise the lives of the more than a thousand people on the ship today may be lost."

"Girl, you're welcome. We brothers are in the world, so naturally we won't ignore it."

Xu Baimei nodded, glanced secretly at the sad Jianghu Ranger beside him, and asked subconsciously: "Zhou Baikang, when you get to Xiangyang, remember to buy more oranges."

The Jianghu Ranger surnamed Zhou was stunned, and then nodded quickly: "Buy it, I will definitely buy it!"

Xu Baimei seemed to feel that she was a little shameless like this, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the cabin. The wanderer named Zhou followed her with his eyes disappearing.

When you walk into the cabin, you can hear children crying everywhere. After all, how can ordinary people not be afraid of the scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night just now?

The four of them walked towards the depths of the cabin, and there was a room at the end. The door was closed, and not even a trace of light could be seen.

Although the ranger was a bit cynical, he was as sensitive to Qi as a little Taoist priest. He noticed a strong ghost Qi emanating from the cabin. He subconsciously held Xu Baimei behind him, fully alert. Stare at the door.

As he approached the door, the death energy in Meng You's body surged uncontrollably. Meng You squinted at the door and whispered: "Ghost energy."

The ranger nodded: "And his moral practice is not shallow."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the room opened without any wind, and an old woman could be vaguely seen sitting cross-legged on the bed.

Beside her, a livid baby was lying quietly in its swaddling clothes. It had obviously been dead for many days.

The old woman slowly raised her head, and with the light in the bed cabin, she could vaguely see her face like a dead wood.

"Jiejie, you little kids are really sharp. After hiding for many days, you were discovered by you."

The old woman's voice was extremely hoarse, like a trumpet with a hole in it, making it extremely uncomfortable to listen to.

Meng You smiled and said softly: "The ghosts outside are the work of seniors?"

The old woman shook her head and grinned: "You are a very honest young man and you are not polite. You actually asked my old lady such a direct question."

"If the matter is urgent, we must get straight to the point." Meng You stared at the old woman, "Then if it is not the hand of the senior, please ask the senior to help."

"Help me? Do you think my old lady looks like the kind of person with a bodhisattva heart?"

"In that case, please forgive me, senior."

"Why, you want to fight with me, an old woman?" The old woman smiled ghostly, "A pure martial artist from the fifth floor has a well-trained body; a little Taoist priest who has never even started, even if he can draw talismans to drive away those ghosts, he can't. Can you really do anything to my old lady? The last soldier's boy is okay, the sixth floor is barely enough to see, but the soul soldiers in his body are being warmed and nourished, do you think he is willing to fight for my old lady?"

The old woman's words pointed out the origins of several people, and her understatement made people inevitably wary.

Seeing the ranger surnamed Zhou blocking the pretty-faced woman behind him, the old woman actually felt a trace of anger: "What a scene of love between husband and concubine, you and me, Zhou Mubai's blood is flowing in her body." Blood, as expected, was born to be a disciple!"

The ranger was a little surprised and said: "Senior, do you know my ancestor of the Zhou family?"

"Know?" The old woman smiled sadly, "Barely, I can't wait to drink his blood and eat his flesh!"

Zhou Baikang was stunned for a moment, blaming himself for being too talkative. It seemed that this old woman had an irreconcilable feud with the Zhou family!
The old woman smiled indifferently and said to herself: "Damn stinky bald donkey, the ghost is still there!"

The next moment, the Buddha's light shone everywhere, and an old voice resounded in everyone's ears!

"Amitabha, I am longing for water. I hope Bai Gu will come out and see you!"
