Of course, having a boat does not mean that you can hit the road to Lijiacun immediately.
They also need a boatman.
Unfortunately, there are no boatmen left.
These days, rivers are becoming more and more dangerous, and fewer people are willing to go near rivers, let alone drive boats on rivers.
Lu Bai searched many homes, but no one was willing to get on the boat.
Until an old guy was sitting at the door drinking. In the concierge, one could hear the scolding of the young daughter-in-law and the low-pitched persuasion of the son.
Hearing Lu Bai's request, he made a money sign.
After taking the money, he threw it into the room, took the wine bottle and got on the boat with Lu Bai.
He pulled the sail rope and stretched it skillfully, blowing the wind on the river. At this moment, he looked a little younger.
Lu Bai also chatted with the old man for a few words after that, and learned a few things about controlling the sail and using the oar by hand, and said no more.
Let the old guy enjoy the pleasure of his last attempt on the ship.
The three major hardships in life are boating, forging iron, and grinding tofu.
For some people, suffering lasts a lifetime, but the suffering in this life is worth recalling.
The voyage on the river went smoothly at first, but in the middle of the journey, things started to become haunted.
Something always bumps into the boat, causing it to shake violently.
And at some point, some fishy-smelling algae appeared on the boat.
Although the ship is still sailing, everyone knows that the ship will sink sooner or later.
Li Bodhisattva looked calm, but in fact his legs were weak.
The fat little red-skinned guy on the other side, Chi DaGang, performed even worse. If he hadn't lost some of his functions, he might have peed out.
The old guy was very calm, took a sip of wine, and continued sailing.
Lu Bai chuckled and didn't care about the strange things on the boat, staring at the wandering black figures in the river.
Very good, in this world, although there are many abilities on the mental side, they are not all.
Even if some evil spirits are transformed from spiritual desires, for various reasons, most of their abilities are physical.
As long as it's the physical side, that's fine.
Lu Bai pulled the hemp rope.
Chi Gan, who was holding his head and squatting in defense, didn't react before he flew out with a 'Ah~~' sound, and then fell into the river with a 'plop' sound, landing next to the black shadow, and then shaking rapidly
stand up.

Then the black shadow was not interested in the little red-skinned fat man at all, but had a strong interest in Lu Bai and his ship.
In response, Lu Bai didn't panic, pulled Chi Gan out, and threw him out again.
This time, the red-skinned fat man hit the black figure directly.

You may not care about the apple falling from the tree, but when it hits your head, you will definitely eat it.
The black shadow thought so too, so the fish took the bait.
The big black shadow bit the fat man, and in the next moment, he felt a terrifying force pulling at the rope on the fat man's body.
The hemp rope tightened instantly, and the thing hidden under the river gradually revealed itself.
Li Bodhisattva instantly collapsed to the ground and vomited.
"Human crocodile!" Lu Bai looked at the thing and commented.
It's not a crocodile that looks like a human, but a human being made to look like a crocodile.
His feet come together to form the crocodile's tail.
Starting from both sides of the mouth, there was a crack that spread to the neck and lower part of the chest.
The everted ribs became the teeth next to the ‘big mouth’.
The human body was swollen by the foam and looked extremely huge.
At this time, Chi Gan was being bitten in the stomach by this humanoid crocodile, and the rancid gastric juice was constantly corroding his red skin.
Seeing this opportunity, Lu Bai loosened the hemp rope in his hand slightly and continued to pull. The rope might break.
He turned over, jumped out of the boat, and kicked the human crocodile directly.
The kick that contained the internal force directly kicked off several pieces of skin and flesh of the humanoid crocodile, and even broke several bones underneath.
Lu Bai is not good at Qinggong, but his water-based skills are okay.
But after seeing the human-shaped crocodile, he no longer had the urge to take a dip.
With a strong effort in his hand, the hemp rope tightened again, and Chi Gan successfully escaped from Xie Sui's belly.
It flew towards the ship's mast and was tied to it.
Lu Bai pulled the hemp rope, stepped on the side of the boat, and returned to the boat.
Then he turned around and looked down at the human-shaped crocodile. The detached skin, flesh and bones from his body were rushing towards him against the river.
It seemed like a baby swallow had thrown itself into the forest and quickly returned to the body of a human-shaped crocodile.
"Because he died because of a tear, were all his desires before death focused on repairing himself?"
After the humanoid crocodile was kicked, it stopped looking for trouble with the boat, turned around and swam deeper.
Back then, he received a knife that fell from the sky, just like a pig, and was almost cut in half with one knife.
From then on, he never wanted to be separated from his flesh and blood again.
The man didn't dare to go near the river, so after he escaped by chance, he stayed in the river.
It usually preys on all kinds of flesh and blood, as well as everything that comes close to the river from the shore.
However, even though his brain was in trouble, he still knew who was not to be trifled with and would not persist in looking for trouble.
And on that guy's boat, another guy was already on board.
"How long will it take?" Lu Bai asked.
"It will take another three hours." The old guy looked at the position, and then immediately said with certainty: "Of course, the premise is that this kind of thing will never happen again."
"I can't guarantee this. You can sail the boat with peace of mind." Lu Bai glanced at the algae at his feet and scanned the sailboat, which was not too big.
Obviously, besides the humanoid crocodile, there were other evil beings eyeing the ship.
And it is obvious that this evil is not as simple as the physical side.
But the opponent didn't take action immediately, which shows that this guy's ability is not too strong. As long as he doesn't get hit directly, there is a high probability that he can still solve it.
The rest of the voyage was much more boring.
It's just that there are more and more algae on the boat. I don't know why.
The whole ship is not like a ship that can walk on the river, but more like a sunken ship that has sunk to the bottom of the water for an unknown period of time.
Gradually, the whole boat became slower and slower, until it finally stopped in the center of the river.
"I can't walk any further," the old guy said as he drank another mouthful of wine.
"Can we still bring the boat closer?" Lu Bai asked.
"The whole ship can't move anymore."
"It's not far from Lijiacun here, right?" Lu Bai looked towards the shore and saw the somewhat familiar forest.
"I'm not sure, but it's almost the same." The old guy said, "I haven't been here for so long that these places have become strange."
"Let's go, swim over." Lu Bai glanced at the growing number of algae, mentioned Li Bodhisattva, and then looked at the old man.
"I won't go. I'm too old to go ashore."
When Lu Bai climbed ashore, he looked back and saw that the entire boat had been dragged into the water by a large amount of algae.
Green algae reflects the water surface into green.
The old man saw a large number of people hugging him among the algae.
"Come to the bottom of the river with us!"
"That's where we belong."
After a while, a pair of eyes opened from the algae and looked towards the distant forest.
