Chapter 125 Leave a name(1/2)

Seeing this small boat, Wei Yi naturally did not refuse.

He took a step forward.

Then he said to the store owner who was wearing a hat:

"Boatman, go to the middle of the river next to it."

"Although it's not snowing heavily now, there is something wonderful about being in the middle of the river at this time of year."

Two people were sitting casually on a boat.

Immediately afterwards, the small awning boat slowly made clear waves under the rowing of the boatman, and headed towards the center of the river.

"Two guests, please take your seats."

"Little old man, let's speed up~"

After reminding the two of them, the boatman's sound of paddling on the water became even louder.

The speed of the boat is also faster.

Lying on this awning boat, looking at the bluer sky in the distance, it is really unique and mysterious.

While rowing the boat, several people chatted leisurely. Of course, the most important thing was the boatman who said:

"The two guests have never been on a boat, have they?"

"Little old man, I've been here on the river for decades, and I remember every customer I've ever had."

"You two must have only come here in the past two years, right?"

Upon hearing the boatman's question, Wei Yi naturally nodded.

There is nothing unspeakable about this.

"I just came here some time ago."

"In general, it's really not even a year."

"And I asked the store owner to confirm that Pindao rarely takes a boat ride."

"Especially on a slow boat like this. It's my first time to ride on it, so it's hard to avoid feeling a little strange."

"It made the store laugh."

Hearing this, the boatman also smiled kindly, and then said with a smile:

"There's nothing funny about it."

"Small boats like this on the river are just for food."

"How can two Taoist priests be so free?"

"If we can have a full stomach, most of the boatmen on this river will not be willing to come fishing."

"In the end, it's all about supporting the family."

Seeing the two people chatting happily, Chen Dongxing gave Wei Yi a different look.

Immediately afterwards.

Chen Dongxing asked:

“May I ask the boatman how much is the appropriate price for this trip?”

"We two brothers may have to travel for a while, so we have to ask the boatman to stay with us for a while."

I heard Chen Dongxing's inquiry.

The shopkeeper smiled, then shook his head and said:

"How much money does this distance cost?"

"What's more, having these two Taoist masters on board is even more of a fate for me."

"Being able to listen to the teachings of the two of you is a fate that I have cultivated for hundreds of years. How can I ask for money from the two Taoist priests?"

"Besides, the little old man has no children and has been wandering on this river all his life. Eating the wind and drinking the dew is just a habit."

"It's not too much trouble."

"If I can have two Taoist priests with me in the evening, I will be really happy."

Both of them are human beings, so they can naturally tell the truth of what the boatman said.

"Then it will trouble the boatman~"

"..."

It was at this moment that Wei Yi seemed to see the scratches on the small shed on the awning boat.

Look carefully.

I only saw a small round shed on top, with densely written words engraved on it.

They all seem to be like people's names.

Some are so vulgar that even the strokes are not correct.

Some of them are very elegant. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are scholars who are proficient in writing. They can be said to be full of wonderful pens.

Seeing this, Wei Yi seemed to find it very interesting:

"Seller, why are there so many names engraved on the middle roof of your boat?"

“It looks quite historical.”

When talking about this, Wei Yi pointed to one of the older places:

"These names must be at least forty or fifty years old, right?"

"Even the way it is written is different from what it was later. Shopkeeper, your little boat is a piece of living history."

I heard Wei Yi praise him so much.

The boatman also seemed very happy:

"No, no, it's just that we have been ferrying by the river for a long time."

"Little Laoer's ferry boat is always free of charge, and these names are engraved on it one after another by the guests."

"It is indeed quite old."

When talking about this, the boatman also said to these two people:

"If the two Taoist priests don't dislike it, can they also leave some writing when they get off the boat?"

"In this case, the little old man can be considered to have had an experience on the boat, and this trip is not in vain."

Wei Yi smiled, then looked at the boat and touched the wood on the boat.

Then he spoke:

"It's just pen and ink. I'm in a good mood right now, so why not leave a few words?"

“I’m afraid the store won’t like it~”

When he said this, Wei Yi seemed to be interested.

Looking at the sun setting in the distance.

Then he smiled and said:

"We happen to be on this river. Why don't we tell some stories about ghosts and ghosts?"

"This is quite suitable for the occasion, and it can be regarded as adjusting the atmosphere."

Seeing that Wei Yi was so interested, it was natural that Chen Dongxing would not be able to cause trouble.

What's more, he was also very curious about the story Wei Yi told, so he slowly sat up straight.

Just lean on the boat and listen.

The same was true for the shopkeeper. Although he was paddling on the boat, it did not affect his listening to the story at all.

and.

Ever since Wei Yi said he wanted to tell a story, the sound of rowing boats in this store has become quieter and quieter.

It was almost inaudible by the end.

However, the boat still moved forward perfectly on the river. It must be said that the old boatman's skills were superb.

"Little old man, I'm listening here."

When he got here, Wei Yi cleared his throat, and then finally started to speak:

"Once upon a time, there was a pair of close friends, a fisherman and a drowned man..."

"Every time the fisherman sprinkles wine in the river before fishing, this can be regarded as a tacit understanding between the two of them."

"It only took a moment or three until the drinks were all gone, and all the big fish were caught in the net, and they were able to catch more fish than those who worked hard..."

"Day after day, year after year, until that day a child fell..."
To be continued...
