Facing the old mayor’s questioning, I continued to maintain an angry expression.
I have talked about the situation all over the place, plus the red-faced man's body is indeed wearing our diving suit, but the old mayor doesn't believe it!
In the end, the night rush to the burial chamber was revealed by us without any risk!
Most of the residents in the small town are tired of the outside world and avoid the upright people here.
After learning the truth of the matter, he was extremely contemptuous of the red-faced man. A few people who were a bit grumpy, got the old mayor's answer, and directly dug a pit and buried him on the spot!
Burial is the most severe punishment on the Tibetan side! They believe that when a person is buried in the soil after death, the soul will be imprisoned in the ground for eternity and cannot be superborn!
Afterwards, the old mayor invited us to his tent and found the doctor in the town to check on Meng Gantang and relieved us a few words.
After that, he asked Lapp to ask me: "Little boss, the mayor asked you what happened in the funeral? Where did Lao Saren's body go? How did Amo die?"
When I was in trouble for a while, I asked Wen Fang to take out the spirit-devouring jellyfish from the fishing net and tell him the truth of what happened in the burial chamber intact.
It's just that the identity of the Spirit Devouring Jellyfish is really inconvenient to say!
So, I made up a lie and told him: This thing is an evil thing that ran out of the devil's cave of hell, and the celestial burial master who came to live here is actually a devil!
He put this evil thing in that **** and asked you to carry the dead in, just to use this evil thing to bring the soul of the deceased into the devil country and make him a demon soldier! You were deceived by him!
After that, he secretly reminded Lapp to tell him the identity of the old bandit that had been given to Meng Gantang.
Lapui did so.
After listening to the old mayor, his expression changed, and he solemnly apologized to us.
Afterwards, the two sides talked for more than half an hour, and he issued a eviction order, presumably he wanted to tell others about it.
After tossing all night, I was very tired.
As a result, he resigned the old mayor and returned to the passenger ship with Meng Gantang and everyone on his back.
No words for a night.
At noon the next day, everyone woke up one after another!
I got up late and found a lot of things on the deck, probably mainly food.
The old bandits were holding a roast leg of lamb and chewing happily. When they saw me coming out, they waved and shouted: "Smelly boy, wake up!"
"Come here, damn it, the craftsmanship of dumping meat here is just good, the leg of lamb is about to catch up with the leg of the dragon!"
My stomach was groaning as well. I took two bites in the past, and actively ignored Meng Gantang's bitter eyes, and asked casually, where did these things come from
The old bandit grinned his teeth and said, "Who else can it be? That old mayor sent someone here early in the morning and said it was compensation for us!"
As he said, the old guy rubbed his feet, and said, "Smelly boy, my little niece told us everything! I said, your boy is good enough, and you know the trick of scheming and catching the thief!"
"But, what do you kid do next?"
I wiped my mouth, knowing what he was asking.
Immediately after thinking for a moment, he said, "Actually, the best way is to follow the soulless corpse last night and touch it all the way!"
"I guess, that thing, in all likelihood, go to the underwater building in the mouth of the dakini!"
"It's just that this method is useless right now!"
"I think our breakthrough should be on the spirit devouring jellyfish!"
After hearing this, everyone looked to me strangely, not understanding what I meant.
I didn’t bother to spend more time talking, and simply said: “My idea is that we will make a positioning thing for that thing and throw it into the water!”
"This thing has suffered a lot before! After entering the water, it is very likely to escape to its lair. We will follow all the way and always find a place! What do you think?"
"Hey! This is a good way!"
The old bandit immediately clapped his hands, and said weirdly: "Boy, my damn feels more and more that you are a little bit hurt! However, this matter is to my appetite, so just do it!"
With a plan, everyone immediately started to get busy.
Under Rapp's painful expression, I smiled and took down the water tracker in his cabin, let the others stay away, and slowly untied the fishing net carefully.
Taking advantage of the body of the Spirit Devouring Jellyfish, the opportunity to slowly return to its normal body shape, with a saber on its'canopy', a deep cut was made, and the tracker was forcibly stuffed in!
Then, without me calling, Wen Fang threw the prepared needle and fishing line over.
I awkwardly squeezed the needle and squeezed the wound indiscriminately. I took a sigh of relief and dragged the Spirit Devouring Jellyfish to the side of the ship. I pulled out the saber and cut the fishing net without looking at it.
"Go your mother!"
After that, without waiting for the thing to break through the net, he kicked off the boat.
At this moment, other people leaned over when they saw the situation, leaning on the bow of the boat to observe the surface of the water. Within a few seconds, a series of splashes spurted up from the surface of the water.
Then, the spirit devouring jellyfish finally rushed out of the fishing net completely, and turned into a flexible water snake in the water. The red umbrella cover bulged and swelled, and it rushed forward seven or eight meters!
"Damn, so fast!"
Yu Mingjie straightened his eyes, and hurriedly yelled at Rapp: "What are you doing in a daze? Quickly chase after her!"
Rapp stayed for a while.
Immediately, he reacted with an'oh', and hurried to the cabin to start the passenger ship. In the roar of the steam turbine, the passenger ship turned into a sharp arrow, galloping away on the water...
After the passenger ship set sail, it was speeding on the water for about two days. The town had already been thrown far behind by us, and it had reached the upper reaches of the Maquan River.
However, the Spirit Devouring Jellyfish still galloped in the water.
For two days, this monster showed an incredible physical strength. Since falling into the water, it hasn't stopped for almost a second, and it has moved straight forward tirelessly.
On this day, I took Rapp’s class, holding the rudder in the cabin, Wen Fang lowered his head and carefully compared the map, trying to recognize where we are currently.
Meng Gantang grabbed my ears boringly and played with me.
The deck underneath is quite lively. Uncle Huang and the three of you come and play playing cards, yelling at us from time to time.
While speaking, a big ice waterfall appeared in front of him.
Rapp quickly threw down the card in his hand and beckoned me to stop the boat!
Then, he ran up, took the rudder from my hand, and said that the river bottom around the ice waterfall would have some reefs left by prehistoric glaciers, buried deep in the water, and integrated with the river water.
Even some old boatmen who run boats all year round dare not easily cross the terrain. Let us go to the deck and prepare for the worst at any time.
I can also see that the momentum here is extraordinary.
The passenger ship is surrounded by a piece of floating ice in the east and a piece of floating ice on the water in the west, especially the ice waterfall in front, like a silver curtain hanging upside down from the sky, with sharp cone-like icicles hanging three or four meters high on the river surface. Above it is a snowy mountain full of snow, but depending on the quantity, it is estimated that there are hundreds of thousands of tons of snow on it.
Under the ice waterfall, there is a long ice valley tunnel. When Ma Quanhe reaches that place, there are signs of diversion. Two winding tributaries, zigzag and zigzag, rubbing the snow-capped mountains to the left and right ends.
In the middle, there are two natural rivers sandwiched by glaciers, leading straight to that ice valley tunnel.
The three descended to the deck.
Wen Fang looked up at the ice waterfall that was getting closer and closer, and said to us: "According to the map, after passing this ice valley tunnel, you will see the vast Ali Glacier area! It is rarely inhabited by people, and it is the most remote area in Tibet. And the most sinister part, this conflicts with our previous route plan..."
Under this natural majesty, the old bandit's voice couldn't help lowering seven or eight degrees, covering his mouth for fear of causing an avalanche, and whispered: "Conflict, conflict, anyway, the general direction is right! Why didn’t the Spirit Devouring Jelly stop? Damn, is the bug playing us?” (End of this chapter)
