"Quick, everyone move, lower the anchor first and reduce the speed..."
"Damn it, what does Lao Liu do for food? Why didn't you notify me earlier when there was such a heavy fog!"
The ship suddenly became chaotic, and the boatmen relied on their memories to maneuver the ship familiarly.
When the people in the cabin heard the noise outside, they also became worried.
As for the owner of the ship, Fatty Qian, not long after the bell rang, he panted into the building ship and cooperated with the ship boss to give orders.
It is unrealistic to work in such a large swimming circle, so you can only supervise others' work.
Following the actions of the boatmen, the three-gallon ship gradually slowed down after a sudden lag, and slowly approached the shore.
In this situation, it would be better to sail to the shore with the hull damaged than to go down the river.
Because the river is so fast and winding, no one knows where the next bend will be.
Those boatmen were indeed hired by Fatty Qian at a great price. Even though they could not see their fingers, they relied on their rich experience to quickly slow down the speed of the boat.
Next, as long as we dock safely, spend the night, and wait until dawn, everything will be fine.
But it happened that the house was leaking and it rained all night. The people on the boat had just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly a sad opera sound came from the thick fog.
"My heart has been devoted to you for half my life,
Just waiting for the title "Traveling in the Red World"
My heart is full of your affairs,
You have no concubine in your heart..."
On the river, which was so quiet that only the sound of waves could be heard, the sound of opera singers coming from far and near made everyone on the boat feel numb instantly and fear appeared in their eyes.
"This... this is... that... troupe... why... why... are you still practicing in the middle of the night?" Fatty Qian's legs were spinning, his lips were trembling, and his small eyes were looking at the place where the sound came from in horror.
.
Although I subconsciously guessed that I might have encountered something unclean, I didn't want to believe it in my heart.
After all, that thing was too terrifying, and the boatmen and guards on their ship couldn't do it.
On the other side, among the group of people who clashed with Hou Jiuming, the young lady among them had already dressed up and stayed with the guards.
"No, I touched something dirty."
"Everyone, please keep your spirits up and protect the young lady. You must not let her suffer any losses."
"yes!"
After the warrior named Ma finished speaking, the others immediately responded in unison.
While everyone on the boat was uneasy, Hou Jiuming turned his back on what was happening outside the window and concentrated on refining his magic power and stabilizing his own realm.
In fact, he took effect immediately on what happened outside.
Breaking through the later stage of Qi training is not just an increase in mana.
Matching it is spiritual consciousness.
I don't know if it was due to his naturally powerful soul, but his consciousness immediately reached a radius of fifteen meters as soon as he awakened.
Although it could only cover a small number of ships, the boatmen who came and went were able to get a clear picture of the situation on the ship, and they knew that because of their breakthrough, they had attracted something unclean.
However, I didn't take these wild ghosts to heart.
Because he is no longer the young man from Solid Rock City.
Not to mention that he was already at the advanced stage of Qi training, he still had the proficient-level spell "Nian Hua" and the hundreds of elementary talismans in the storage bag. As long as the ghosts that came were no more than wild ghosts, he was confident that he could take them down.
As time goes by, the realm becomes more and more stable, and the speed of absorbed spiritual energy also slows down.
In the outside world, when the sound of opera floated on the ship, it stopped abruptly, and then, on the deck, there were sudden bursts of strange moans.
To be honest, if it were not for the current situation and hearing this voice elsewhere, most people would have a look of inquiry on their faces.
But now, none of the men on the boat wanted to explore. Instead, they were all terrified.
"No, it's a ghost that's sucking the yang energy. We must stop it, otherwise, all the men on our ship will be in trouble!"
"How to stop it? It's such a heavy fog that you can't even see who's on the other side, so what's the point of stopping it?"
"If you don't stop it, are you just waiting to die like this?"
"Damn it, let's fight..."
Except for a few people on the ship, almost all of them were martial arts practitioners. In desperation, they aroused the courage to learn in their hearts. With a loud curse, they walked toward the deck with their swords in hand.
"I'm going too, isn't it just a ghost? There are so many of us, how can we still be afraid of him?"
Someone took the lead, and others couldn't help but muster the courage to follow.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once you get started, things become easier.
Almost all those with martial arts skills went to the deck.
But before they could reach the hatch, a scream suddenly came from behind.
"Ah, help, there is a ghost..."
"Go away, don't come near me..."
First there was a sudden noise, then all kinds of crying and cursing.
In just an instant, the back warehouse became chaotic.
"What's going on? Is there more than one ghost?"
"What should we do, go to the deck or to the rear?"
This question is destined to get no answer, because as soon as the back warehouse became chaotic, the temperature nearby dropped rapidly.
Not only that, waves of terrifying whimpering sounds echoed in the cabin.
"Woo~wu~wu~"
Everyone who had just made up their mind collapsed instantly under such circumstances.
"Run away, there's more than one ghost."
next moment,
The cabin was in chaos. Some people fled into the room, some rushed to the deck, and others ran to the second floor, preparing to jump into the river to escape.
Among them, many people were entangled by ghosts while fleeing.
"Don't pull me, run away!"
The man who was running away with him turned his head when he heard the sound, and then his expression suddenly changed. He quickly pulled away from him and fled in the opposite direction.
And when running away, he shouted, "I didn't pull you, it was a ghost..."
Upon hearing this, the man's face instantly turned pale, and his mouth trembled as he said, "It's over... it's over..."
There are many situations like this.
Some were pulled by ghosts, some were lying on their backs, and some were unlucky enough to be possessed.
Regardless, death began to spread rapidly at this moment.
Compared to the boatman and the group of passengers, the situation was much better.
The warrior surnamed Ma, after the ghost approached, immediately jumped out of the crowd, holding a blood-stained long knife, and slashed a lonely wild ghost away with one blow.
The other guards were not to be outdone.
Although they are not as powerful as their boss, they can still resist a ghost if they work together as a team.
However, this is only temporary. If the ghosts keep coming, they won't be able to hold on for long.
And the young lady being protected clearly understood at this moment.
After Boss Ma killed a ghost, she immediately said, "Master Ma, don't be entangled, find a way to retreat..."
"Yes, miss!"
But at this moment, a loud noise sounded from under their feet.
