Chapter 071: Paper Boat Crossing the River

 “Dong”

While Liu Rumei was asking for help, a crisp sound of a pipa sounded, and a phantom of a string came from outside the courtyard, pointing directly at Liu Rumei.

"Buzz!"

The Bagua red rope array that blocked the courtyard gate lit up, and the space seemed to be frozen in a ten-meter range around it. The aggressive phantom of the strings seemed to be trapped in a quagmire, and the speed of progress not only decreased sharply, but also tended to retreat.

The Bagua Red Rope Array is indeed useful!

Fu Shiyi's eyes lit up.

"Hmph, a trick."

Suddenly, a cold sound sounded in the void. Then the sound of the pipa hit the banana leaves and became rapid like rain. Then two, three, and countless phantoms of strings hit like waves.

The word "闭" in the Bagua Red Rope Array only persisted for a breath and then scattered.

The remnant force of the strings did not diminish and flew directly towards Liu Rumei's heart!

"Oops!"

This series of actions happened too quickly.

When Fu Shiyi realized, the strings had reached Liu Rumei.

At this time, Liu Rumei's eyes suddenly opened.

I saw her pointing at the sword, and the phantom of the strings in front of her melted and disappeared like snowflakes.

A four-stringed and twelve pillars floated outside the courtyard next to the blue lantern in the air, a simple pipa with four strings and twelve pillars appeared, and a cold sound came from the pipa:

"I thought it was a god, but I didn't expect it to be a clay sculpture that didn't even have sacrificial tribute. It's hard to protect itself. It's hard to meddle in other people's business, it's simply a matter of seeking death!"

Before he finished speaking, a solid string flew from the pipa.

Fu Shiyi was worried that the god Liu Rumei invited could withstand this wave of attack, but the next scene surprised her.

I saw that the statue of the god in the round halo behind Liu Rumei disappeared without any warning!

Is this the rhythm of running if you can't beat it?

This...this is too unreliable.

Not only was Fu Shiyi surprised, but even the fierce and powerful string was stunned. A contempt sound came from the pipa: "Hmph, I came out to cheat food and drink without fear of cause and effect!"

The flying real string shot backwards.

Liu Rumei, who was sitting on the platform, groaned in pain. It was obvious that the method of opening the altar just now had great harm to her.

Fu Shiyi and Brother Sixteen looked at each other, stepped forward and blocked Liu Rumei behind him.

Brother Sixteen looked at the pipa floating in the air outside. He couldn't beat them. It seemed that he could only find another way. Brother Sixteen was brave, coughed lightly, and walked forward halfway:

"Miss, look, there is no resentment or grudge between us, why bother fighting and killing to hurt the harmony? If you lack the money or the maid you call me, just say yes, we will burn it to you now!"

Brother Sixteen said, signaling Fu Shiyi to get the paper man’s paper money.

"You guy is interesting. It's true that I lack maids, but that's all for those paper."

The pipa seemed to say to Fu Shiyi. The sixteenth brother was shocked and quickly said, "Oh, what are the uses of those maids? If...If you really lack people to run errands, I...I can do it. My sister has been weak since childhood and can only help. If you want to take people away, just take me. I will eat less and work so much more to support me!"

Fu Shiyi suddenly felt funny and heartwarming.

The other party seemed to be coming from something in her sea of ​​consciousness. At this point, Fu Shiyi could only bite the bullet and said:

"I'll just follow you."

"I'm a sensible person."

After a sound came from the pipa, it disappeared. Only the blue lantern floating in the air slowly floated up to the slope. Obviously, the other party was sure that Fu Shiyi would follow.

"Eleventh, I...I'll go with you."

Brother Sixteen knew that things were not to be violated, so he followed Fu Shiyi step by step, but was kept by Fu Shiyi. I don’t know how dangerous it is, so how could Fu Shiyi pull someone into the water again?

"Miss Fu, wait."

As soon as Fu Shiyi stepped out of the door, Liu Rumei had two burning incense pillars in her hand. He stood inside the door and asked Brother Sixteen to hand one of them to Fu Shiyi:

"Miss Fu, before the incense is burned, you must return to this yard. I will remind you that you remember to pay attention."

The white smoke from the incense pillar condensed but did not dissipate, and the fragrance was abnormal. After careful smelling it, Fu Shiyi realized that the ginseng was mixed with raw rhinoceros. The ancients said: "If you dare not burn raw rhinoceros, you will have a strange fragrance when burned. If you touch your clothes, you will be able to communicate with ghosts."

Fu Shiyi felt awe-inspiring in his heart.

Liu Rumei was even more unsatisfied, but now she had no time to think about this. Fu Shiyi held the incense and accelerated his pace to follow the blue lantern.

After less than half a quarter of an hour, Fu Shiyi found that the white mist surrounding the village had dissipated, replaced by endless darkness. Even the sound of wind and footsteps disappeared, as if he had fallen into another world composed of darkness.

There was only a light left in front of me.

Fu Shiyi was a little nervous at first, and didn't know how far he had walked forward. Suddenly, he felt like he had bumped into an invisible membrane wall. After ripples flashed, his eyes suddenly became brighter.

A pier appeared in front of her.

A blue lantern was hanging alone on both sides of the pier, and an old woman was plastering paper boats. The other party's face was blurred, as if it was a layer of gauze. Fu Shiyi glanced at him, and for some reason he felt a creepy feeling, and his soul was swaying, as if he was about to fly out of his body.

"Dong!"

At the critical moment, a red figure appeared from the pipa, blocking the silent attack.

The old woman who was tying a paper boat looked up at Hongying, as if she was afraid. She glanced at Fu Shiyi again and lowered her head. Hongying walked to the dock with a blue lantern, and took out two gold coins from her arms and handed them to the old woman who was buried in her head and pasted them on the paper. She said in a gentle voice:

"Mother-in-law, we want to cross the river."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small boat sailed from the riverside far away. In less than half a cup of tea, he arrived at the pier. The small boat had no sails, only a blue lantern was hung on the mast on the bow, and a man in black wearing a hat stood under the lantern.

Fu Shiyi thought he was a boatman, but he could not see the oars in his hand. As soon as the boat arrived by the river, the man in black jumped and disappeared. It turned out that he was also a passenger on the boat.

I don't know if it's a human or a ghost.

Fu Shiyi was worried and followed Hongying to board the small boat. The bow of the boat was uncontrollable and turned automatically. The boat was leisurely and very stable, drifting towards the foggy river center.

......

"Eleventh, wake up, wake up!"

When Fu Shiyi opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to the Liu family courtyard. But she couldn't remember what happened after crossing the river.

After listening to Fu Shiyi's story, the Sixteenth Brother looked a little strange: "Eleven, after Miss Liu called you back, he entered the room. I saw that you had not woken up for a long time, so I went to look for her, but no one responded to the door that had knocked on for a long time. When I went in, I saw that the room was empty, and there was no such thing as Miss Liu. There was a pair of small embroidered shoes in front of the bed."

Miss Liu disappeared?!

What's going on?

Fu Shiyi looked at the open hall, and felt an impulse in his heart. He wanted to remove the red cloth covering the spiritual plaque on the table. Perhaps the truth would be revealed. However, after thinking about it, he finally gave up.

"On the 11th, we only set out from Guyaju after Lantern Festival, but Miss Liu said that today is the first lunar month of Yinyang Village, which is too strange."

It seems that this Yin-Yang Village really can’t continue to stay!

Fu Shiyi and Brother Sixteen packed up their bags, left a note, and said goodbye and left, leaving the big locust tree at the entrance of the village. When Fu Shiyi looked back, he saw a deserted mountain, and rows of crows were standing on the branches and creaking and screaming non-stop.

When they returned to the fir forest yesterday, at the same time, Mr. Liu's familiar cry of pain came from the hillside ahead. The paper man overturned the car, Mr. Liu was overwhelmed on the road, and the same scene appeared in front of them, Fu Shiyi suddenly felt cold all over.

What exactly did they encounter?!

"Oh, thank you two. I live in Yinyang Village not far ahead. It's late at night. If you don't dislike our place, you can stay for one night."

"Uncle Liu, you... don't you remember me?"

"Hey, brother, you're joking. Although the old man is blind, he has a very good memory. This is the first time I have heard your voice in my life, so how can I recognize it?"

The sixteenth brother almost trembled, so naturally they didn't dare to enter Yinyang Village again. After saying goodbye to Mr. Liu, they rushed to Beiliang Mountain overnight.
