Mysterious resurgence

Four captains plus A Hong, a total of five people, stood on the black boat, floating along the road.

Mist appeared on the river, covering the surrounding area, making it difficult to see the scene on the river bank.

But everyone discovered that this place was no longer in Taiping Ancient Town, nor on the river leading to Zhongzhou City, but had unknowingly drifted to an unknown supernatural place.

The ferry in Taiping Ancient Town is just a connecting point.

The ship will dock at a specific time and place. Once the time and place are missed, no one can find the ship. And if there is no specific paper money, even ordinary people will get on the ship by mistake. To no avail.

What seems like a simple condition is actually very difficult to achieve.

But a group of five people inexplicably met all the requirements.

Shen Lin knew the right time and the right place, Yang Jian had the seven-yuan paper money, and Liu San knew how to use the paper money.

It has to be said that several captains can indeed settle a lot of things together. Their intelligence capabilities and some supernatural items in their hands are so rich that they can deal with things that happen in various situations.

"Based on time and distance, we should be almost at Zhongzhou City now, but if you look around, there is no trace of reality at all. There is no doubt that we took this ferry and entered a supernatural place. It’s the same as the supernatural bus back then.”

Yang Jian stood on the bow of the boat, peeping with ghostly eyes.

Mist is not fog, it is a supernatural phenomenon, and the surrounding things are distorted, much like the path leading to the ghost post office.

"As long as there is no danger, no matter what the situation is, I just hope that I can reach my destination smoothly."

Li Jun didn't care about these mysterious things. He only saw tasks and goals.

A Hong sat on the wooden boat, staring at the river.

I don’t know if it’s because there’s no light, or if it’s just something special here.

The river was pitch black, and it was impossible to see what was under the water. Only the oil lamp on the bow of the boat flickered, adding a faint light to the originally dark river surface.

She was very curious, so she stretched out her hand and lightly traced her fingers across the river.

But when Ah Hong retracted her fingers, she found that her fingers were not wet at all, and there were no water stains at all. She only felt an extraordinarily cold feeling.

It was like a mass of solid cold air passing through.

"Not river water."

Ah Hong felt a chill in her heart and said casually: "Did you think of anything in this scene? The black ferry, the river leading to a supernatural place, and the special ferry fare."

"What do you want to say?" Liu Sandao.

Shen Lin stood at the stern of the boat and said, "You want to talk about folklore? This scene is indeed like a story. Legend has it that there is a river leading to the underworld of hell, called the Wangchuan River. Under the Wangchuan River are all lonely souls and wild ghosts. , it is difficult for a living person to cross, but there is a legend that there is a small boat on the Wangchuan River, which is specially designed to transport lonely ghosts who cannot cross the river to the other side of the river."

"And the person driving the boat is the ferryman. Some people say that the Biangan flower grows on the banks of the Forgotten River. It is as red as blood, so beautiful that it can make people sink."

"The legend may be exaggerated and beautified, but there may also be comparisons. It is impossible to fabricate it out of thin air." A Hong said.

"maybe."

Shen Lin said: "If there is a hell, maybe the world we live in is a hell. There are supernatural beings reviving and evil ghosts running rampant. What else is this if not hell? The ghost masters are dying one by one, and the captains are struggling to survive. The lives of ordinary people are fragile. Just like ants, and we don’t know when this thing will end.”

"No matter how cruel it is, we can't give up hope."

Li Jun shouted, interrupting the conversation between the two people to avoid affecting morale.

When Yang Jian heard what A Hong and Shen Lin said, he couldn't help but think of what Sister Hong had said to him before.

Ghost stories may be more than just stories.

Then the legend is not just a legend.

My heart suddenly shuddered.

Now that I think about it, what Sister Hong said is right. A few years later, when the supernatural incidents subside and the story of how she dealt with the supernatural incidents continues to spread, will there be another beautified version?

Most likely.

The cruel truth needs to be buried, and the story that justice must prevail needs to be spread.

Only by living in ignorance can we feel the beauty of hypocrisy.

Understand the truth and shatter the illusion, and people will only live in pain.

The headquarters has been concealing supernatural events, which means it is not building this illusory beauty.

After all, for most ordinary people, knowing the truth is not a good thing, but a bad thing. Illusive happiness is also happiness for them, which is better than worrying and being suspicious all day long.

"Wait a minute, something's wrong, the boat is heading to the shore." Liu San noticed the clue and said immediately.

now.

The boat changed its direction. Instead of drifting in the middle of the river, it went against common sense and gradually moved closer to the shore.

The lights on the bow flickered and the mist dispersed.

There is a ferry on the shore.

The ferry was made of wood and was very dilapidated. On the other end of the ferry was a small road that extended to the dark end. It was impossible to know what was on the other side.

"The second ferry? Is it possible that it has stops just like the supernatural bus?" Yang Jian frowned.

"Maybe someone else will take the boat." Liu San said.

Shen Lin added: "Maybe the people on the boat are not necessarily people."

But discussion is discussion.

The boat finally docked.

The river was rippling with ripples, but there was no one around the ferry.

"Can Yang Jian see what's going on over there?"

Li Jun asked, but his will-o'-the-wisp was burning and could not light the way ahead.

Yang Jian said: "I can clearly see a dirt road that stretches to the end of the darkness. There is no one on the road, but I seem to see a few old graves on the roadside. There seems to be a village in the distance, but it is too far away to see clearly. .”

His ghostly vision was not disturbed too much.

At the end of the line of sight is an abandoned village.

Dead and empty.

This ferry is for that village.

"It should only dock temporarily. As long as no one is on board, the ship will continue to move." Shen Lin said.

"It seems things are not that simple anymore."

Liu San suddenly frowned and picked up a piece of unburned paper money from the corner of the bow.

The paper money was still glowing with fire.

Unable to be extinguished, the remaining flames quickly burned away the last corner.

There was a smell of paper dust in the air.

"Someone has already boarded the boat and paid. This is not the paper money we burned before, it just appeared."

"You can't joke around at this time. There are only five of us traveling with us. There are no other people. And if someone gets on the boat, can we not see it?" Li Jun said seriously.

He kept staring around.

Even if he is blind, there is no reason that the other four people are also blind.

"I don't know. I can't understand this. I'm sure that someone must have boarded the boat, but I didn't see anyone." Liu San said, "Paper money is the best proof."

Yang Jian's ghost eyes opened several times again.

He stared at every corner of the ship.

However, nothing was found and no one boarded the ship.

But the piece of unburned paper money that Liu San saw just now came unexpectedly and strangely.

"You can tell from the corner of the paper money just now that what was burned was a three-yuan note, which means that at most three people got on the boat and traveled with us just now." Yang Jian said.

"But I didn't see anyone at all." A Hong said.

Shen Lin smiled slightly and said, "The boat we saw and the boat seen by the people on the ferry may not be the same one. We encountered two different boats at the same location. This can explain why someone got on the boat. We don’t know anymore.”

"But the lamp is the same lamp." Yang Jian looked at the oil lamp and said.

"It seems that our group is in danger. I hope we don't have too many interactions with that group of people." Shen Lin said.

Li Jun said: "The action cannot be delayed. Even if the ghost dares to show up on the ship, we must kill it without mercy. If we work together, there is nothing we can't resolve."

"Yes, if the captains join forces, nothing can be settled." Shen Lin smiled, liking Li Jun's confidence.

It’s just that people who have experienced despair are not so optimistic.

He caught a glimpse of Yang Jian and Liu San frowning.

The ship continued to move.

They sailed away from the second ferry silently and continued drifting downstream.

Yet on the water under the boat.

Among the reflections of Yang Jian, Li Jun and others, three strange figures were caught in the middle. Each figure was so lifeless, old and cold, and out of place.

The boat was rocking slightly now, as if it couldn't bear the new weight.
