"Huh? Is there a boat?"

"Who?"

"Didn't I say that no one dares to walk on water during this period? Is it a monster?"

"Go and ask Master Fan Tian!"

There were obviously many people on board, and there was a lot of noise.

A man dressed as an official came to the middle-aged Taoist on the bow of the boat, respectfully saluted him.

As for the middle-aged Taoist, the moment the official arrived, he put away the sad expression on his face, replaced it with a calm expression, and turned to look at him.

"Report to Master Fan Tian that there is a ship nearby!"

"Pindao saw it."

"May I ask Master Tian if we should go and have a look?"

"Um……"

The middle-aged Taoist dragged out his voice for a long time, still facing forward, but quickly looked around with his peripheral vision. He saw that there was only this boat on the river, and there were no other people around. He thought for a while before speaking:

"Has this place already reached the place where the demon king is causing trouble?"

"Reporting to the Heavenly Master, several places were hit by disasters and capsized some time ago, but even the closest one has to be a little further ahead." The official replied respectfully.

"Where is the widest place on the river?"

"It will take half a day to walk along the current."

"Um……"

The middle-aged Taoist still drawled in a long voice, neither saying that it might be a monster nor saying that it was not a monster, but just said: "In that case, you go and have a look."

"Ah? Me?"

The officials were shocked!

During this period, no boat dared to walk on the water.

Not to mention that there are no tent boats, even the merchant ships and cargo ships coming and going have stopped, and the fishermen on both sides of the river dare not go into the water to fish. Even if they are walking on the shore, they do not dare to cross the river.

At this time, there was only a pitiful sliver of light left in the sky, but there was still a boat floating quietly on the water. With the lights on, could this be an ordinary boat?

It even sounds like scenes from some monster stories I’ve heard since childhood.

"Um?"

Fan Tianshi glanced sideways.

"I..." The official's whole body trembled suddenly, but in comparison, he was more afraid of monsters and ghosts, so he quickly lowered his head, "The villain is stupid and cannot distinguish monsters and ghosts."

"If you don't have any courage, how can you maintain your integrity in this troubled world?" Fan Tianshi's voice became a little stern, "How can I plead for the people?"

"A villain is not talented..."

The official kept his head lowered, as if he would not go to check it out no matter what.

The middle-aged Taoist named Fan Tianshi pondered for a moment, thought together, and then said: "That's fine, I'll just go and see it myself."

"call……"

The official breathed a sigh of relief immediately.

"But you have to go with Pindao."

"That's okay!" After the official said it, he felt that he had shown his cowardice a bit obviously, so he quickly added, but it was also true, "With Fan Tianshi here, even those demon kings in the north, or the corpse tiger king in Huizhou in the past

, I have absolutely no fear at all!"

"General Zeng!"

"The end is here!"

A muscular warrior behind him replied.

"Hold the sword for me!" Fan Tianshi warned again, "Don't act rashly without my order!"

"Follow your orders! The last general will put on his armor first!"

"Go quickly!"

Not long after, a melon-skin boat was lowered from the dragon boat. Three figures took the boat and slowly approached the tent boat and the lights.

"Wow..."

The Taoist priest of Xianfeng Daogu stood on the bow of the boat, behind him the general in black gold armor stood with his sword in hand, and the officials were responsible for rowing the boat.

The water was really calm, except for the sound of rowing boats.

After getting closer, the lights on the tented boat suddenly went out, and several people couldn't help being surprised. However, just the next moment, the lights came back on, revealing a little fox lying on the bow of the boat, tilting its head and using a pair of

He stared at them with confused and curious eyes.

The restless river surface, the lonely boat at night, and an unusual little white fox suddenly shocked the three of them.

The officials and generals quickly came to their senses, and when they turned to look at the middle-aged Taoist again, they saw that the Heavenly Master still had a calm look on his face, so they continued to row over.

A little closer.

I saw two young Taoists, a man and a woman, in the tented boat. There were many cloth bags and four bamboo baskets in the cabin. They were boiling water and making tea in the boat, grilling a big fish, and the smell of fragrance could be heard.

"Heavenly Master..."

The official turned back to look at Fan Tianshi.

"No rush! Say hello!"

When the middle-aged Taoist saw the two people in the boat looking at him, he stood up, saluted and said loudly:

"Pindao is a Taoist registered in Juxian Mansion. My surname is Fan and my common name is Yuchen. Everyone calls me Fan Tianshi. When I was passing by this place, I saw that the river was empty except for a Taoist friend. I came here to take a look.

Take a look and say a few words of condolences."

The fox and both looked at them.

"The poor Taoist Lin Fangjue."

"The poor Taoist Liu Fangyao."

"嘤woo~"

"It turns out they are two Taoist friends." The middle-aged Taoist Yun Danfengqing actually did not relax his vigilance, "Why are the two Taoist friends here alone late at night?"

"It got dark early when we sailed here, so we had to stop at this ferry to rest for the night."

"Why did you bring another white fox?"

"Raised since childhood." Although Lin Jue answered truthfully, he also said to him, "Since Taoist fellow Daoist dares to come here by boat, why bother asking questions?"

After hearing this, the middle-aged Taoist had not yet spoken, but the officials around him spoke first:

"Be bold!"

The official scolded, pointed at the middle-aged Taoist and said:

"Do you know that this is Master Fan from the Juxian Mansion in the capital? If you are north of Qinzhou or in the capital, just mentioning the three words Fan Tianshi can scare away the demons! I ask you, you answer, Tianshi

You have the profound meaning of the Heavenly Master, don’t speculate on it!”

"Don't be rude!" The middle-aged Taoist was frightened and quickly turned to scold him, "How can those who practice Taoism have such things when they talk to each other?"

"Yes, yes..."

The officials quickly gave in.

At this time, the middle-aged Taoist had also noticed that these two people were probably not demons, so he said, "I wonder if you can let the three poor Taoists board the boat for a while?"

Lin Jue also looked at each other.

For the moment, I couldn't tell anything about this person, I just felt that the ostentation was very grand, but no matter what, there was no reason to refuse.

It is fate to meet each other.

"Why not?" The melon boat then approached the tent boat.

The first person to board the boat was a fat and armored general. After boarding the boat, the melon boat floated upward for a while. Then he turned around and pulled the middle-aged Taoist and officials aboard.

Both seemed a little frail.

"Fellow Taoist is compassionate."

"Fellow Taoist is compassionate."

The three Taoists greeted each other.

But during this period, the middle-aged Taoist quickly took a look at the other two people in the cabin.

There were several cloth bags in the cabin, with unknown contents, and four bamboo baskets. Next to them were an unusual-looking whisk and a long sword.

Both of them wore gray-white Taoist robes, which were very simple and even a little old and white. However, Taoists have their own magnanimity, which is reflected in their faces and hair, the color of their eyebrows, their every move, every detail.

Even the fox next to him looked at me in an unusual way, as spiritual as a human being, and even showed a look of thinking in it.
