Chapter 1270 The Ferryman
The little ancestor looked at the ferryman standing at the bow and paddling a wooden oar, sighed softly and said to us: "This ferryman was a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty before his life. Living a life that thousands of people envy. Unexpectedly, one time when he went out, he encountered a bandit. Both the ferryman and his wife died in the wilderness, and his wife was defiled by the bandit. After the two died, they died. Going back to the underworld, I walked to the Naihe Bridge, and because of the deep love between the two of them, they agreed not to drink that Meng Po's ecstasy soup, and they agreed to jump down the Wangchuan River together... But then guess what?"

"My little ancestor, please don't be foolish, tell me quickly." Huang Shisan asked, and the few of us, including the aloof Hua Yangxiao, couldn't help but be attracted by the story of the ferryman.

The little ancestor continued to say softly: "Oh, what a pity. After the ferryman jumped off the Naihe Bridge, he was immediately caught by the evil spirits in the river, and his whole body was entangled with poisonous snakes and covered with poisonous insects. His wife saw her Seeing her husband's miserable appearance, he couldn't help but start to fear the evil spirits and poisonous snakes and insects in the river, so he didn't dare to turn over and jump into the river. In the end, under the desperate gaze of the ferryman, the little lady violated her oath and ran to the end of Naihe Head, and chose to drink Meng Po. Tang was reincarnated and reincarnated. The originally powerless scholar gradually turned into a powerful ferryman, and the originally handsome scholar in white gradually turned into this monster wearing a black cloak... "

"But I heard that as long as the ghost survives the thousand-year torture on the Wangchuan River, if the ghost still retains the memory and humanity of the previous life, can't it be reincarnated with the memory of the previous life? The ferryman is a poet of the Tang Dynasty. It should be more than 1000 years now, why is he still punting here? Started a business of helping people smuggle across the Wangchuan River?" Huang Shisan asked suspiciously, and I was also very puzzled.

The little ancestor said softly: "This is because the ferryman wants to save enough money to find out the news of his wife's reincarnation from the purple-robed ghost official. At the same time, he also wants to find out where the bandits who killed them were reincarnated. Alas, thousands of years have passed, but the ferryman has never let go of his hatred, let alone his feelings for his wife. No matter how many lives his wife and bandits have reincarnated, he will find them..."

"Then this has become the demon of the ferryman..." I said with a sigh, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit of sympathy and regret for the ferryman. I looked at the strange ship we were on and then asked: "What about that?" Little ancestor, what happened to this bone ship?"

"This ship is extraordinary, but I don't know the exact origin, old man. I only know that it was passed down from generation to generation by the ferrymen. I heard that when the Wangchuan River was first formed, there were such boats within a few hundred years. A ship of white bones. You must also find that the poisonous insects, snakes, and evil spirits in this river dare not approach this ship." The little ancestor said.

I nodded, we have been traveling on the bone ship for so long, and nothing has happened so far, and the evil spirits around us even avoided us.

I looked at the tall figure of the ferryman at the bow, and the wooden oar in his hand also looked like a powerful weapon.Since this ferryman survived the millennium torment of the Wangchuan River and finally retained his mind and memory, he must be a ruthless character.

"Little ancestor, since this ferryman and this boat are so powerful, you have always passed the Wangchuan River safely every time, but why have you been frowning from the beginning?" I asked curiously.

And the little ancestor snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, of course I don't have to worry when I come here alone, but you guys have such a strong breath of life, how can I feel at ease, old man! I'm afraid that you will enter the underworld by yourself. At that time, they were targeted by them..."

"By whom? Could it be that..." Huang Shisan had just finished speaking, when suddenly we were shocked to find that the bone boat we were riding in stopped motionless in the Wangchuan River!

All of us were very puzzled and surprised. There were no visions around, and there were no evil spirits haunting the bottom of the water. Why did the ship stop?

The ferryman at the bow of the boat seemed very frightened at this moment, holding the wooden oars tightly with two big hands and paddling desperately, but the bone boat was still motionless!The evil spirits and poisonous insects and snakes around also fled further away at this moment, as if they were avoiding some disaster!
