"At that time, Yangping was a transit point for the Lanjiang river transport, and merchants from all walks of life gathered here, and things often fell into the water and died. Normally, the corpses were picked up and burned, and the ashes were transported back to the hometown. Something went wrong." The old man's voice became deeper and deeper.

He suddenly stopped smoking and looked straight at Su Che, "There was a plague that year, and there was a cargo ship from Shuangqing where the entire crew was infected with the plague. You know, the plague is a severe infection. Once the disease spread, it could not be controlled at all. They were forced to stop in the Lanjiang River, and Yangping Port did not allow them to go ashore... After only a few days, all the people on board died of the disease, and the cargo ship also died for no reason. It was scuttled, and all the corpse hunters in Yangping spent the whole night walking across the Lanjiang River to retrieve their corpses, but their corpses...their corpses are all gone."

"Then... the rumors of the ghost port began to appear. At first, some people reported that a strange ghost ship often appeared on the Lanjiang River in the dead of night. Later, some people found that there were more floating corpses near Yangping, and then Someone strayed into the ghost port." The old man shook his head and showed a bitter smile.

"Not only that, it wasn't until a few ships mysteriously disappeared while docking in Yangping that no one realized the horror brought by the ghost port. People in Yangping offered sky-high rewards, as long as the cargo ship died of the plague You can get this astronomical reward if you fish it out of Lanjiang, my father went and never came back."

"At the same time, there were several other corpse hunters who disappeared. Since then, the river transportation business in Yangping has plummeted, and they began to blame the corpse hunters and squeezed us out everywhere. I don't know how long it took before the turmoil in Ghost Harbor gradually faded away. Pause, but a few years ago, another ship mysteriously disappeared near Yangping, what was the hull number of that ship?" The old man thought for a while, "Jianghai 422, yes, it is Jianghai 422!"

"Because of the crowding out of the Yangping people, we descendants of corpse hunters have almost gone. The remaining few old guys really have no way out. They can only guard their old house and wait to die." The old man didn't care much. He smiled and said to Su Che, "Old man, I've told you everything I know. It's a crime for you to be entangled in the ghost port, young man. Let's go. The farther you can get away from this ghostly place like Yangping, the better!"

After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and quickly entered the room, locked the door with a click, and looked at Su Che through the door and window, not daring to look at the wet ticket that was almost soaked in his hand.

Su Che came back to his senses and saw that the old man had fled into the room and locked the door, looking at himself through the door and window, he was a little funny, "Anyway, thank you, old man, for telling me this, by the way, may I ask you Is the old house haunted by ghosts?"

"Haunted? Young boy, don't scare me. My old man has lived here for more than [-] years, and I have never seen what a ghost looks like!" The old man obviously didn't believe Su Che's words, and only thought he was scaring himself.

Su Che looked at the morning glory pointing straight at a certain corner of the yard, and was a little surprised. Since the old man's residence was not haunted, then the flower bud of this morning glory was pointing at a hammer indiscriminately?He looked in the direction pointed by the morning glory, and suddenly saw a boat hook in the corner, which was covered with rust.

Stepping forward to hold the boat hook, a coldness similar to coffin nails seeped into the bone marrow from the skin touching the boat hook. Su Che realized in an instant that the thing guided by the trumpet flower turned out to be this boat hook placed in the old man's yard .

"Old man, do you still want this boat hook?" The old man stood in the room in a daze with fright, he didn't see any boat hook at all in his line of sight, thinking that it might be Su Che who appeared in his eyes after being entangled by the ghost port. Hallucinating, he quickly waved to Su Che, and said bravely, "Old man, I think that boat hook is destined for you, young man, take the boat hook and go quickly, maybe it can save your life."

"Old man, are you really going to give me this boat hook?" Su Che respected the old man.

The old man's tone was impatient, "Young boy, as long as you are willing to leave, let alone the hook, you can even take the few hundred dollars you gave me just now."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Taking the boat hook and leaving the old man's house, Su Che walked towards Yangping Ancient Town, but after walking a few steps, he faintly heard the sound of someone walking on tiptoe behind him.

Glancing back, the sound of tiptoe walking stopped immediately, Su Che continued to walk, and the sound sounded again.

"Strange, at this time there are still people who are not sleeping and follow me?" Su Che pretended not to know, and continued to walk forward, but the movements of his feet continued to speed up.

A figure hiding in the dark and following Su Che appeared where Su Che passed by, closely following Su Che towards Yangping.

But as Su Che's speed became faster and faster, he gradually felt strenuous, and even couldn't keep up. He gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, "Walk so fast, are you an athlete?"

Just when he thought he was going to be unable to keep up with Su Che, Su Che's speed suddenly slowed down from a distance, and he couldn't help but feel happy, "I'm tired of following, my stamina is much longer than yours! "

Taking a few deep breaths, Su Che's back that never disappeared gave him some hope, and he chased forward bravely, until he was about to enter Yangping Ancient Town, and he completely lost Su Che's trace.

The cold wind by the river slapped his face indiscriminately. For some reason, he had a feeling of being played for a fool at this moment. He glared resentfully at the direction where Su Che's figure disappeared, and he turned around and wanted to leave.

At this time, a pig-killing knife with a cold light protruded from the dark corner, the blade as cold as water cut through the night, and it was placed on his neck.

Su Che's slightly mocking voice came into his ears, "I don't sleep at night, wandering outside, not afraid of bumping into ghosts if I walk too much at night? Tell me, why are you following me?"

"Stalking?" The man wanted to quibble, "What stalking, what's wrong with going out for a walk because I can't sleep at night, is it against the law?"

Su Che's butcher's knife around his neck approached a few minutes, the sharp blade almost cut his skin, the chill that penetrated into the heart and spleen was transmitted from the butcher's knife, and the skin around his neck moved at a speed visible to the naked eye. There was a dense layer of goosebumps.

"Since I stepped out of that old man's house, you have followed me. I am fast and you are fast, and I am slow and you are slow. Is there such a coincidence in this world?" Su Che looked at him with dangerous eyes, and his tone became more and more serious. Fashen Leng, there is a tendency to hack him to death if he doesn't tell the truth.

The person who was following Su Che didn't expect that the person he had provoked was so cruel, so he said submissively, "Hero, please forgive me. Misunderstanding, this must be a misunderstanding. I am absolutely a hero and you have absolutely no malicious intentions!"

"Follow me, do you mean there is no malice?" Su Che withdrew the butcher knife on his neck, and pinched his shoulder blade with his left hand like a pincer, causing him to yell out in pain, "Ask you one last time, why?" Follow me?"

The man reluctantly explained, "Yangping has not been peaceful recently. There are rumors in the town that it is a moth made by a corpse hunter who lives outside the town. We are sent to monitor and see if there is anything strange about old man Wei..."

"Wait." Su Che interrupted the man, frowning, "What you said is not peaceful, is it a ghost port?"

"Shhh, man, don't say these two words casually, something will happen!" The man shivered with fright and hurriedly hissed.

Su Che felt more and more strange, whether it was from the mouth of the old man or the man who was following him, they seemed to keep the word "ghost port" secret, as if as long as they talked about these two words, they would cause trouble. Generally ominous.

"Tell me, what's going on here? Also, who are you?" Su Che asked with a frown, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but increase.

"Hero, it hurts... Take it easy..."

"Shut up, you're making it sound like I'm hurting you!"

"But the hero grabbed my shoulder almost to the point of splitting, it really hurts..."

Su Che let go of his left hand holding his shoulder blade, and the man rubbed his shoulder that was about to crack with a bitter face, and explained in a low voice, "I... I am a resident of Yangping Ancient Town, and my name is Li Si. That thing, Recently, it appeared in Yangping again. Several residents in the town disappeared, but they were suppressed and not reported. The old people in the town said that it was a bad omen caused by the corpse-hunters outside the town. I don’t understand. Old man Wei, an old man half buried in the ground, is so capable, but what can I do, I am also very desperate, tonight I am on night shift, guarding outside Old Man Wei's yard at night to watch him, just bumped into you! "

"Man, can you tell your dog to stay away? I'm a little scared!" The big black dog following Su Che's eyes showed a fierce look, and his green eyes made him feel scared.

Su Che pushed the big black dog aside and asked, "When did the residents disappear in Yangping?"

"About two months ago."

Su Che calculated the time, and it basically coincided with the time when Wu Liang had an accident in Yangping, "How much do you know about Ghost Harbor? Tell me everything!"

"Hush, good man, really don't talk anymore, if something happens, you will attract that thing!" Li Si hissed again.

Su Che didn't care, "Wouldn't it be better to lure Guigang out? It would save me a lot of trouble!"

Li Si looked at Su Che in horror, thinking that he had met a lunatic, there are still people who are not afraid of ghosts these days?This is too outrageous!

"So, those of you who live in Yangping Ancient Town next to the ghost port, how much do you know about the ghost port? Is it true that the ghost port is so evil that you can't get out after entering the ghost port? Hey, don’t get dizzy, tell me how to get to Ghost Harbor! Ghost Harbor? Ghost Harbor? Ghost Harbor!”

The ghost port was mentioned many times in a row, and a strange thing happened. Just now, the two were standing at the entrance of Yangping Ancient Town, and the road paved with bluestone slabs was in front of them, but at this moment, the straight bluestone slab road disappeared. Yes, what appeared in front of Su Che was a curved mudstone road.

The lights on both sides of the road are brightly lit, and the Ming and Qing style ancient buildings that stay all night are instantly aging and decaying. A little dim candlelight shines from the wooden houses on both sides of the road and reflects on the muddy road. The empty road is suddenly crowded with dense shadows .

"Ghost...Ghost..." Li Si's eyes were wide open, his legs were limp and he fell to the ground. The horror scenes of the ghost port rumored by the older generation came to his mind, pointing to the direction of the ghost port. His hands were as soft as mud.

Su Che tightly held the butcher's knife in his hand, showing a satisfied smile, "That's right, we found Ghost Harbor!"

Li Si raised his head and looked at Su Che, wanting to cry but no tears, what kind of person is this, he can still laugh when he arrives in Guigang, isn't he afraid?

Holding Li Si by the back collar, he lifted him up to stand firm when he was lying on the ground, Su Che smiled and said to him, "Are you interested in going to Ghost Harbor with me?"

"Do I still have a choice now?" Li Si was desperate.

"No." Su Che said seriously, "It's already here, wouldn't it be a pity not to visit Ghost Harbor?"

"Did you come to Ghost Harbor for tourism?" Li Si said frantically.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"I didn't expect you to find out about my visit to Ghost Harbor!" Su Che took out Professor Yang's pointer and held it in his hand.

Li Si originally wanted to persuade Su Che not to die, but when the words came to his lips, seeing Su Che's excited expression, he obviously couldn't listen to his own words.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Li Si was a little suspicious, Su Che probably came here on purpose because he heard that there was a ghost port in Yangping Ancient Town.

Li Si's guess is very close to the truth.

At this time, the small town that appeared in front of Su Che was somewhat similar to the Yangping Ancient Town outside, but they did have completely different styles. If Yangping Ancient Town outside had a strong commercial atmosphere and was a typical tourist town, then The small town in front of Su Che's eyes is full of ghosts, and one can tell it's a dead city at a glance.

He took out his mobile phone and pointed it at the ghost port town in front of him to take a few photos. Su Che found that the signal of the mobile phone had completely disappeared, and then he took out the old-fashioned functional phone. grid.

"Be careful, follow me after entering the ghost port, don't stay too far away." Su Che called the big black dog, stroked its dog's head, pointed at Li Si and said, "You are responsible for protecting him, and you will be rewarded with a bag after you go out." Dog food!"

Wang Wang Wang!

The big black dog wagged its tail happily, walked towards Li Si seriously, and dragged him forward by his trouser legs.

Su Che always felt that the ghost port in front of him was a bit weird, which was different from the two ghost creatures he had come into contact with before, but the only thing he could confirm was that there was a red dress in the ghost port, and there might be more than one.

Looking into Ghost Harbor through the curved dirt road, the gloomy outlines of houses stand on both sides of the road, like coffins stuck upside down on the ground, giving Su Che a faint sense of palpitation.

Looking up, all the houses looked desolate and dilapidated, very similar to the houses where the corpse hunters lived outside Yangping Ancient Town, but what was strange was that there was a white paper lantern hanging at the door of each house.

Slight candles burn in white paper lanterns, illuminating the lonely road, and the reflected black shadows become more and more crowded.

"Hero, do we really want to go in?" Li Si looked at the ubiquitous black shadows in the ghost port, as well as the strange white paper lanterns, and unconsciously broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, "The old people in our town are so evil. Once you're in a ghost port, you can't get out."

A look of fear crawled all over his cheeks, what Li Si wanted to express was very clear, he didn't want to follow Su Che to die and break into the ghost port.

Su Che turned his head and looked at Li Si, "I'm definitely going to enter the ghost port. Of course, you can choose to stay outside the ghost port, but I can't guarantee any accidents."

After what Su Che said, Li Si suddenly realized that if Su Che and this fierce-looking big black dog entered the ghost port, wouldn't he be alone, and would not know if he encountered a ghost? how to die.

He said with a sad face, "I'll go in, can't I go in the ghost port? Don't leave me alone!"

Su Che led Li Si to circle around the ghost port twice. The small town in front of him was just a small corner of the ghost port.

"The ghost port is very big, follow me when you come in, don't wander around, otherwise it will be difficult for me to find you." Su Che confessed to Li Si.

He only intends to take a look at the small town of Ghost Harbor tonight, and does not intend to go deep into the port area of ​​Ghost Harbor.

Su Che and Li Si led the big black dog into the ghost port along the dirt road outside the ghost port.

The broken stone pavement is covered with weeds, the doors of the wooden houses on both sides are closed, and the bleak light of the white paper lanterns is reflected on the severely faded couplets on both sides of the door. It is pale and looks very intrusive.

"Strange, just now I saw crowded black shadows on the road outside the ghost port, why did they disappear when I came in?" Su Che stopped in front of an old house, thinking secretly.

Li Si almost hugged the big black dog, looked around anxiously and replied Su Che timidly, "Yes, it was all shadows just now, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye."

"Since they won't come out, let's go find them!" Su Che took out Professor Yang's pointer from his backpack, and then took out the paper lantern and handed it to Li Si, "Take this, ordinary ghosts won't be able to enter you." body."

The shining candlelight of the paper-made lanterns is in stark contrast to the white paper lanterns in front of the old house. The paper-made lanterns are full of warmth, while the white paper lanterns are eerie.

After Su Che's experiments, paper-made lamps are a devastating blow to ordinary ghosts. Once they are illuminated by paper-made lamp candles, they will be burned, but once the object becomes a ghost, the effect will be greatly reduced. They feel intense pain, but when it comes to Red Clothes, it will only make it feel a little uncomfortable.

The above data are kindly provided by Huang Xiaoying and Zhang Yi.

But in the ghost town in front of him, paper lanterns are enough for Li Si.

With Professor Yang's pointer in his left hand and the butcher's knife in his right, Su Che kicked the wooden door of the old house, and the white paper lantern hanging at the door of the house went out.

The lanterns were suddenly extinguished, and the whole street suddenly dimmed.

"What's wrong?" Li Si, who was holding a paper lantern, was taken aback.

The green eyes of the big black dog looked at Li Si with contempt. What kind of scene did it not see with Su Che?From Nanfeng Ghost Town to Yangping Ghost Harbor, Lord Dog, I have experienced all kinds of storms and waves!

The weak wind blows through the air, bringing a wet and cold fishy smell, and the white paper lanterns that suddenly darken the whole street sway slightly, and the swaying shadows of the lights bring an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"Hero, pay attention over there, it seems that someone is coming!" Li Si's eyes suddenly froze.

"Human? It's a ghost!" Su Che looked in the direction Li Si was looking at, and under the dim candlelight of the flickering white paper lanterns on both sides of the road, a vague shadow slowly approached.

The blurry shadow got closer and closer, and Su Che saw the other party clearly under the light of the paper lantern.

This is a short, stooped old man, wearing dark cotton clothes, he kept walking forward with his head shrugged, and stopped when he was about to bump into Su Che.

The old man had a very strange smell, like the stench of various dead bodies piled up and rotting together, which made people feel uncomfortable.

"Wei Qingting told you to come in?" The old man's voice was so soft that it could not be heard.
