When the two girls heard me say it was a ghost ship, they were so frightened that they had no intention of playing, and they leaned close together.The small boat floating in the river swayed with the wind, getting closer and closer to us.

"Lanzi, did you ask Mr. Tong to tell the people from his hometown to pick us up?" I asked her. I suspect that Tong Dahai must have calculated according to the time that we must arrive at night and never cross the river, so he asked the people from his hometown to pick us up and cross the river. We camped by the river.

"No, although the living conditions over there are not as harsh as before, and the electricity is connected, Mr. Tong has not been in contact with the people in his hometown by phone, that is, he occasionally sends a letter or two with pigeons. Before I came out, the pigeons were always there. In the nest."

I have already confirmed that the small boat is coming towards us. It has passed through the layer of mist on the river at night and has not crossed the night. I have even thought that the position of the bow should be the legendary zombie. At the rudder, the stench of corpses filled the boat came with the boat.

I always have a lot of confidence in my fantasies, but this time it let me down again, the black donkey hooves in the bag are still useless.The boat bumped gently against the creaking planks of the ferry and stopped in front of us.This boat is very old. To put it bluntly, it is a canoe made of an ancient pine about two meters thick and hollowed out, leaving the shell. There are two simple paddles on the left and right, and only one mast that should have sails. A solitary oil lamp, flickering with dim light, looks extraordinarily strange on the calm and dark river.

In early November, the Northeast has already entered winter. Although the temperature is not as cold as winter, the climate is no different from winter.People in the Northeast have a local saying that it is cold in winter, and it should be said that the northwest wind blows a little snow.In addition to being affected by the cold current in the direction of Lake Baikal in Russia, the wind direction of the entire three eastern provinces is mostly northwest after winter, with few exceptions.But Yebudu, where we are, is obviously on the south bank of the Songhua River, and the boat moves without sails, and it runs against the direction of the wind.

"Move out the things in the car." I had already taken a large bag out of the car and put it on me. This is the necessary equipment for some mountain adventures that Nalan Hong prepared for us.

"Brother, what are you doing? You know that something is wrong with this boat and you still dare to sit on it?" Mei Hui asked me.

"That's right, Brother Shuang, Yebudu can't leave at night, there's no one in sight, it's too scary, don't do it again..." Lan Zi tremblingly said.

I smiled, and said to the two girls: "Don't be anything anymore? You said that it was the water ghost that caused us to become ghosts for the dead? Let me tell you two, the theory of ghosts in the world is not credible at all. Even if there are ghosts, it is still in people's hearts. There are ghosts, relatively speaking, I believe in fate more. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence that this boat is sailing alone against the wind, not going anywhere else, but at night? No matter what force drives it, I believe it is God's will, God let us float to the other side with this small boat, besides, it's really not very safe to stay on the shore."

"Lanzi, do you know the way?" I didn't give the two girls time to react, and I already started throwing the bags they should carry on the boat. The boat has a strong water carrying capacity, and it shouldn't be a problem to see the water marks on the draft. .

"Ah." Lanzi replied casually, and jumped onto the boat.

I think fate once again verified that my decision was correct. The moment Meihui jumped onto the boat for the last time, the small boat swayed with the wind and slowly drifted towards the northwest of the opposite bank, which saved us a lot of energy.
