Chapter 1662 Thirteen Ghost Eyes

I nodded, knowing the language of birds and beasts sounds absurd, but it is possible.Qin Wuyu, the bird king back then, was such a number one figure.If you think about it boldly, maybe this Qin Wuyu is still Boyi's descendant.

Jiu Ye continued to tell that with the changes of the times, the products of nature such as mountains and rivers have undergone great changes.For example, the Yangtze River at that time was much more turbulent than it is now, and the water was very strong, and the degree of harm was no less than that of the Yellow River.However, Boyi was ordered to go to the Yangtze River, just as the water of the Yangtze River was soaring.

So Boyi used Dayu's Dinghaishenzhen to drill thirteen wells under the Yangtze River, and the flooded Yangtze River water was poured in, which eliminated the flood.At that time, the place where Boyi drilled the well was at Nanguandu.

After the flood was relieved, the thirteen wells remained. Later, due to the movement of the earth's crust, the things Boyi used to block the water holes were destroyed, thus forming the thirteen vortices on the Yangtze River. There is a kind of suction, and things that drift to the vicinity will be sucked in, so this is also called the Thirteen Ghost Eyes.

People say that the thirteen wells drilled by Boyi were deep, and the thirteen ghost eyes left behind went straight to the underworld.Each ghost eye leads to a layer of hell, and each of the thirteen ghost eyes leads to a thirteen layers of hell.

That is to say, among the eighteen levels of hell, thirteen levels are connected to the ghost eye at the bottom of the Yangtze River.

After I heard this, I smiled and said, "Jiuye, I think this sounds more like a rumor. The legend is very heavy, and the color of myth is too strong. Is this a bit too exaggerated?"

He Sijiu shook his head, and said that if what I just said is a legend to you, then what I will say next is actually what happened...

Speaking of it, it was still during the Qing Dynasty, a group of water bandits came from nowhere, they traveled by boat, the boat was very good, and the water quality was very high, they traveled along the river of the Yangtze River, and when they reached a village, they disembarked and looted. When they were done, they boarded the boat and withdrew, and murders and murders happened from time to time.Because their whereabouts are uncertain and they are very familiar with the geographical waters of the Yangtze River, they often disappear suddenly on the water when the officers and soldiers are chasing them, and no one knows where they went.Therefore, the officers and soldiers were powerless about this, and several encirclement and suppression campaigns failed.There is nothing the government can do even if they post a list to arrest him.

Until this group of water bandits came to the vicinity of Nanguandu, they also ransacked the nearby villages and killed more than a dozen people.

And when they withdrew from the waterway, they happened to pass through thirteen ghost eyes.

As a result, when they got close to the ghost eye, the boat seemed to be frozen, and they couldn't move forward no matter what.No matter how they paddled the boat, the boat would just circle in place.Later they had to send people into the water to see, but none of those who got into the water came up again.

You must know that these water bandits are all first-class in water quality. They have been on the water for many years and know the water conditions well. They have walked this river before and have never encountered such a situation.

At that time, apart from the few people who went into the water, there were sixteen water bandits left on board.

These sixteen water bandits persisted until midnight on several boats, and the boats remained stationary and could not move.

After midnight, no one knows what happened at Nanguandu.Someone on the shore heard the sound of howling ghosts and howling wolves from the river at Nanguandu. They could see the people on the boat wielding weapons and fighting hard, but they couldn't see the enemy.

Later, at Nanguandu, a black mist rose up, and after the black mist enveloped the boat, there was no more sound.

A few days later, someone found the clothes of the gang of water bandits and the property they robbed downstream, but none of the bodies floated down.

People say that these thirteen ghost eyes, whether it is a person or a corpse, can only go in and out.When the water bandits came here, they offended Jianglong King because of the heavy killing and bloody smell, so they were sent to the underworld through ghost eyes, and sent to hell.

I have to say, I was still a little touched by what Master Jiu said later.Looking at the dark water in front of me, I also felt a little worried.

As soon as Master Jiu finished speaking, there was a shrill cry from the black mist in front of him.

The sound was extremely sharp, not like a human being, but more like a bird's song.

At the same time, Baye, who had been squatting quietly on the boat canopy, soared into the air, flew into the air, and uttered a cry.

After the sound that came out of the black mist, there were several more sounds.

Master Jiu stopped talking and stood up from the boat, feeling extremely nervous.Reminiscent of what he said just now, the sound was really like a ghost cry.

"The time has come. Yangzi, hold on tight..." He Si said a few words, pulled up the bamboo wormwood standing in the water, tapped it on the water surface a few times, the boat flickered, and went straight The black mist not far ahead pierced through.

It happened too suddenly. Just now we were sitting on the boat drinking and chatting, but we didn’t expect to enter the ghost eye near Nanguandu.

Out of fear of the unknown, I couldn't help holding my breath, holding the side of the boat, and watching closely ahead.

At this time, it seemed that there was a suction force from the depths of the black mist, and the nearby water was flowing in that direction.The water splashed and rolled, making a gurgling sound.

And Jiu Ye used the bamboo wormwood to control the direction, and the boat was also extremely fast, rushing towards the dark river.

The black mist shrouded the river like a barrier.

The coffin boat we were on had the wind lantern tied to a pole at the bow.

Although the light is not bright, it is the brightest point in this water area.

Like a sharp sword, the light of the wind lantern pierced through the dark curtain.Our boat also made it through the fog without a hitch.

After passing through the dark scene, the temperature here seemed to be much lower, and I couldn't help but fight several cold wars in a row.At the same time, I also smelled a strong smell of water, which has always been there, but it seems to be stronger here, and there is a rancid smell in it, which is very offensive.

"Master Jiu, lamp." I reminded He Sijiu loudly.Because the wind lamp we hung on the bow, after passing through the black fog, its brightness was much lower than before, and it seemed to be suppressed by the black fog.

The black fog is getting heavier and heavier, and the smell of water is getting stronger and stronger, but the lights that represent the light are getting darker and darker. It seems that the darkness is about to swallow the whole world.

An invisible pressure pressed down like a mountain, and I was a little out of breath, so I had to take a few breaths to relieve the discomfort in my body.

swoosh...

Two bright lights suddenly appeared on the bow of the ship, and two new lanterns were lit.

This was done by Lord Jiu. The new wind lantern seems to be more suitable for this black fog, and its brightness is much stronger than the original one.

Chapter 1663

With the lighting of the two wind lanterns, within the small area of ​​the coffin boat, the light regained the initiative in the contest with the darkness, which made my hanging heart calm down a little.

However, I soon noticed that in the direction where the bow of the ship extended, two eddies had appeared on the water surface.The thick black mist above the two vortexes, as if being sucked into the water, also formed two small eddies in the air, like a tornado, moving up and down with the water eddies in the river , complement each other.

"Master Jiu, is that ghost eye?" I shouted loudly.

At this time, as the speed of the water flow increased, there was a sound of rumbling water coming from the opposite side of the vortex, like the roar of a wild beast.The conversation between Master Jiu and I can only be resolved by shouting or even shouting in order to let the other party hear.

Master Jiu obviously heard my shout.But he didn't answer me. Instead, he quickly got into the cabin and got out again. There was something extra in his hand, and he quickly put that thing on the bow.

There should have been a reserved position at the bow of the ship, for example, the two wind lanterns were supported by two poles.This time Master Jiu erected a slender pole again, which was much higher than the two lanterns.

Under the illumination of the light, I could see clearly that there was a small flag hanging on the pole.

At this time, the ship was still spinning in place, as if there was a whirlpool moving under the water.

The color of the flag is a rare black, which looks a little gloomy.On the black flag, there are many white symbols drawn, and those symbols are also like runes, painted very vividly.

To put it bluntly, runes are a kind of spiritual medium for communication between humans and gods, and between humans and gods and ghosts.I am more and more aware that every special profession that can communicate with ghosts and gods has its own special runes.Just like in the history of mankind, there have been many words.

Presumably, the little black flag is a rune that is well used by a profession like Yama Wanggou.So I have never seen this kind of rune, and I don't know what the function of this rune is.

"Woo... ho... woo..."

After the flag was erected, Master Jiu opened his mouth and let out a strange sound.The sound didn't seem to come from his throat, but a kind of resonance in Master Jiu's chest, which should be able to travel far on the surface of the water.

The voice continued without any pause in the middle, and the voice was cadenced, as if singing a strange song.This sound continued for 2 minutes without any interruption.

If Master Jiu didn't take a breath, then it can be seen that Master Jiu's lung capacity must be different from ordinary people.

And the boat we were in had been spinning in place, but with the strange call of Master Jiu, the frequency of spinning became slower and slower. After 2 minutes, the boat finally stopped again, with the bow facing the Two vortexes.

"Yangzi, get the grains ready, and when you pass by the two whirlpools, grab a handful of each and throw them down." Master Jiu shouted loudly.

"Don't worry, Master Jiu." I also responded loudly, trying to maintain my momentum.

Since Lord Jiu took me out of the river, I can't lose my place here.

Master Jiu was very satisfied with my performance, and shouted again: "Let's go."

My side quickly moved a jar out of the cabin, and I sat down with my legs crossed over the jar.

But Jiu Ye stood at the bow of the boat, under the strange black flag, waved the bamboo wormwood in his hand, and splashed the water, and the coffin boat rushed towards the middle of the two huge whirlpools.

The closer you get to the vortex, the louder the sound of the rumbling water, which is deafening.Moreover, the current near the two whirlpools was very fast, and the boat we were in was squeezed from left to right by those currents.The hull of the boat began to shake violently, as if it was about to be shaken apart.

Thanks to the fact that I was already prepared to sit down and firmly grasped the side of the boat with my hands, I was able to barely maintain my balance.

But Jiu Ye stood on the bow of the boat, but it seemed to be fixed there like a nail with a heavy weight.

I finally saw Master Jiu's ability. Just this ability to sail a boat is enough to shock the world.

And I basically figured out Master Jiu's intentions.

There is a distance between the two vortices, and there is a suction force on both sides that sucks the boat.And Master Jiu just wanted to use the interaction force between them, so that the boat could just pass through the middle.

This is his long-term accumulated experience on the river.

Soon, the boat rushed to the middle of the two whirlpools, and the hull also turned left and right.But every time the hull goes to the left, there is a force on the right that pulls it back.vice versa.

"Yangzi." Master Jiu yelled against the wind.

"Here we come." I responded, reached out and grabbed a handful of grains from the jar, and threw them towards the whirlpool on the left.

Then, I quickly grabbed another handful and flung it towards the vortex on the right.

Two handfuls of grain fell into the water one after another, rustling.

Under the light of those two wind lanterns, I found that as the two handfuls of grains fell into the water, two dark shadows seemed to emerge from under the two whirlpools, sneaking like a dragon, and counting the two handfuls of grains I threw out. swallowed it.

And those two strange shadows also disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, it seemed that the suction of the vortex also dropped sharply.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Master Jiu quickly slapped the water surface a few times with the bamboo wormwood, and the coffin boat passed through the middle of the two whirlpools like an arrow.

After the coffin boat passed the two whirlpools, I heard the sound of the water behind me, and the sound was overwhelming.

I quickly turned around and found that from the place of the two vortexes, two big waves suddenly rose flat, the waves were several feet high, and the momentum was shaking.

"what……"

I have never seen such a formation before, I leaned on the cabin with a crooked body.

Fortunately, the wave just rose on the spot, except that a lot of water splashed on our boat, and there was no wave of water hitting it.

Seeing all this, my eyes should be overwhelmed by what I see, and the most direct reaction is to feel cold sweat protruding from my body.

Obviously, if our boat had been slower just now, this small coffin boat would have been swept inside by those two huge waves.

After the two huge waves fell, the water surface suddenly subsided.

The two whirlpools that looked like ghost eyes disappeared unknowingly.

The coffin boat continued to move forward. Although the river was still turbulent, it was much calmer than before.

I realized that we should have passed the first hurdle.

I found that Master Jiu was still standing on the bow of the boat, just like an ancient pine tree.

"Master Jiu, are you alright?" I asked loudly.

Chapter 1664 Thirteen Lucky Numbers

Master Jiu was shocked, and wiped his face with his hand.I don't know whether it is sweat or water on my face.

"It's nothing. It's been more than ten years. I didn't expect these thirteen ghost eyes to be so fierce. I haven't set sail for more than ten years, and my skills are really unfamiliar. I just got stuck in it just now."

"Jiu Ye, these two whirlpools are two ghost eyes. So, there are still eleven more ahead? How far away?" more tense than on land.

Just now I was holding on, but this time I finally passed a test, and my heart was a little more stable.

As a result, Master Jiu's answer made me nervous again.

Master Jiu replied: "I don't know how far it is, and I have never been here before."

I was dumbfounded when I heard it: "Master Jiu, you haven't been here either?"

The famous Yan Wanggou of the Three Dou and One Gate of the Yangtze River has never been to the Thirteen Ghost Eyes?

Master Jiu nodded: "Thirteen Ghost Eyes has a complicated waterway. After going down from the upper reaches, ordinary corpses are sucked into the first and second vortexes, which are near the two vortexes we just passed. So Even if I'm picking up corpses in Thirteen Ghost Eyes, I can basically work around here. And I haven't missed it. Ahead..."

Saying that, Master Jiu stood at the bow of the boat, with his hands on Bamboo Artemisia, and his eyes were complicated.

After thinking for a while, he continued: "The front is the forbidden area here, not to mention me, other people from the Three Fighters and One School have never been there in our generation."

Forbidden land, what is forbidden land.Naturally, it is a place that cannot be entered. Once entered, the consequences are unpredictable.

I naturally understand this.What worries me even more is that Master Jiu has never been to the other eleven ghost eyes.So, what will happen next, even Master Jiu doesn't know.We both have to face it together.

I originally thought that this trip out of the river would be very dangerous, but with Master Jiu around, there would be no problem.Third Uncle also said, Ninth Master will definitely not put me in danger.Jiuye himself has said a lot of cruel words without shame, and he is more confident in his ability.

I didn't expect that this old man is also an unreliable person. You have never been here before, so how can you be so confident in yourself?

Maybe because he saw the uneasiness in my heart, Lord Jiu smiled lightly and said, "Yangzi, are you worried about me?"

I shook my head hastily: "No, no."

"Hehe, since I dare to bring you here, I will bring you back safely. Let's wait a little longer, when the current in the water changes, then we can take the boat to the seventh ghost eye and start working I guess, the person we are looking for is right there."

I understand that the person Jiu Ye wants to find is the corpse that Sheng Yu asked him to fish.It's just that here, there may be many taboos, so he called the corpse a human being.

In fact, it is right to say that it is a person, and a corpse is also a person, a dead person.

"The seventh ghost eye? Jiuye, didn't you just say that the corpse would be sucked in by the first and second? How come the person we are looking for is in the seventh?"

Master Jiu said in a deep voice: "What Sheng Yu is looking for is a thousand-year-old corpse. How can it be compared with ordinary corpses? Sheng Yu said that over the years, this ancient corpse has slowly dived from the first ghost eye It's near the seventh ghost eye. It took a full thousand years, think about how difficult it is."

"Then...Master Jiu, you have never been here before, can you find where the seventh ghost eye is?"
