Chapter 64: Crossing the River by Boat

As soon as the three of them set foot on the Yellow Spring Road, they saw a familiar figure.

Mr. Li from the resort, Li Xiao.

At this time, Li Xiao changed his clothes and wore a training suit for outdoor survival. There were several people with him, all young handsome men and beautiful women.

Li Xiao seemed to still remember Liu Mang and the other two. He nodded and said, "Be careful," and then walked towards the Ghost Gate with his companions.

"You see, people of this status know that there is someone behind them, so why should we be anxious?" Liu Mang argued with Li Hao, meaning that our strategy would not be wrong.

Li Hao just said "oh", he still preferred to be the first to open up the wasteland.

As the last batch of spirit masters entered the Ghost Gate, the Lishui River suddenly became quiet.

But suddenly, figures emerged from the corners, at least more than three digits.

These people set foot on the Yellow Spring Road without hesitation and gathered at the Ghost Gate.

One of the old men looked up at the pass, his eyes sparkling, and he immediately gave a decisive order: "All the family heads stay and guard the pass with me. Everyone else go in, leave no one behind!"

"Got it!"

Soon, there were only six figures left at the Ghost Gate, led by Wang Ling, the current family head of the Maoshan Qingfeng Ghost Catcher Wang family, and his five loyal subordinates.

These five people are Qi Lin, the head of the Qi family who awakened the great demon Di Ting, and the four corpse kings who have escaped into Buddhism, including Qin Changfeng, the head of the Qin family, Ying Gou Luohan, Ye Zifan, the head of the Ye family, Hou Qing Luohan, Chu Liuming, the head of the Chu family, and Han Xianxian, the head of the Han family.

It is said that many spirit masters in Longguo sneered at the five thug families under the Wang family, and looked down on these people from the bottom of their hearts.

Among them, the four corpse kings were particularly unpopular.

In the final analysis, the main reason is that the origin of the four corpse kings originally belonged to the ghost clan, but it is said that they were bewitched by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and intended to kill ghosts and become Buddhas, so they were given the false title of Arhat.

But in fact, in the ghost clan, the four corpse kings are notorious and have been regarded as traitors. In the Buddha clan, no peers recognize their status at all, and the official level does not recognize the so-called Arhat status, so that now they are neither human nor ghost, neither Buddha nor Buddha.

However, it is also strange that the four corpse king families seem to be determined, just like the Di Ting clan, they must follow the Wang family to kill ghosts and hunt down ghost clan spirit masters everywhere, and they are particularly happy to do so.

The trouble is that the four corpse kings and Di Ting are all inherited at the level of orange spiritual light array, and their own corpse qi and the ghost qi of the ghost clan come from the same source of Yin qi, so they will not be affected by ghost qi, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, and their physical body is their advantage, often surpassing opponents of the same realm and level by a lot.

At the moment, Wang Ling personally stayed with the heads of the five thug families. He had only one purpose - to trap the ghost spirit masters inside, so that they could not escape, and could only be trapped in the endless pursuit of the younger generations of the family until they were destroyed. At the same time, block the reinforcements from the Senluo Underworld outside, kill one if one comes, and kill two if two come.

He knew very well that the current heads of the five ghost emperor families were being held back by the Buddhist helpers he had invited with great effort, that is, no matter who came to support, they were not the opponents of the six of them.

The situation is under control!

…

"Hey~ Why is there a river?"

After Liu Mang and the other two crossed the Ghost Gate, they had not walked far when they found that they were blocked by a turbulent river in front of them.

Strangely, the colleagues who had come in earlier disappeared one by one.

"Second Sister Meng, I suspect that the terrain in the ghost town may be constantly changing. The places experienced by each person will be different depending on the order in which they enter."

"Yes, that should be the case."

The three looked around and found that it was calm here, without even a single figure, and there was nothing else except the river.

The coward was very quiet from beginning to end and did not show any abnormality, which shows that it should be safe here.

"Forget it, let's walk along the river first."

The three chose a direction and moved forward while being alert.

As they walked, the coward began to change a little, trembling, but the amplitude was not large.

It seems that there is movement ahead.

Not long after, Liu Mang found that there was a different scene ahead. There seemed to be a ferry, and there was a small boat next to the ferry, and there seemed to be a thin figure standing on the boat.

Meng Zijing naturally noticed it, and she decisively showed the blue spiritual light array and let Meng Po stand beside her.

Liu Mang did not make a move for the time being, but approached the ferry cautiously with Meng Zijing, stood a few meters away, and shouted across the air: "Hey~"

The figure suddenly trembled when he heard someone calling him, and then turned around.

But the other party was covered with a wide robe, and even his head was covered tightly by the hood. This outfit was comparable to that of a coward.

Under the hood, a dry and unfamiliar voice came: "Call me?"

"Yes. Excuse me, where is this place? Who are you?"

"This is the Wangchuan River, I am helping ghosts cross the river... Of course, people can also."

Wangchuan River? Cross the river?

Liu Mang immediately became alert and looked around, but did not find the Naihe Bridge.

In other words, the figure in front of him was the ferryman responsible for leading ghosts to the depths of the underworld?

Liu Mang asked again: "Excuse me, is there any place to cross the river nearby? What is on the other side of the river?"

"I don't know."

The other party answered every question, but I don't know if he was unwilling to explain in detail or he really didn't know.

Liu Mang and Meng Zijing quickly discussed in a low voice, and then decided to take a boat across the river: "Boatman, can we cross the river?"

"Sure. One spirit stone per person, the same as ghosts."

In this way, including Meng Po and the coward, a total of 5 spirit stones need to be paid. I think the spirit stones the other party wants should refer to the low-grade spirit stones, right?

Liu Mang directly took out 5 from his backpack and threw them over. The boatman stretched out his hand to weigh them, nodded and said: "Get on the boat."

In fact, they could put away the coward and Meng Po to reduce the boat fee, but it was only two more low-grade spirit stones. There was no need to be so stingy. With the coward present, many dangers can be predicted in advance, so there is no need to be prepared.

As the three people and two ghosts got on the boat, the boatman pushed the bamboo pole in the water, and the boat left the shore and drifted towards the unclear opposite bank.

The coward was trembling at this time, leaning against Li Hao, not daring to move, as if he particularly wanted to be taken back into the spiritual light array.

Meng Zijing secretly bumped Liu Mang with her elbow, and then used her eyes to signal him to look in several directions.

Liu Mang looked closely and saw that the boatman's hands holding the bamboo pole were actually without flesh, just a pair of pale and pale bone palms.

At this time, because they were close, they could clearly see that the face under the boatman's hood was just a skull, and there was a ball of green fire in each of the empty eye sockets.

Looking at the dim oil lamp hanging on the mast, it seemed that the oil burning under the wick was not ordinary kerosene.

Oh my God, corpse oil lighting the lamp, the skeleton boatman ferrying... This boat is too scary!

No wonder the coward wanted to escape.
