Fish have light-gathering properties and are very sensitive to light, so some fishermen generally choose to go fishing at night to save trouble and effort.
Although there is this benefit, fishing at night still has certain dangers, especially in Wujiang Gorge, where the water potential is complicated.
The water in the middle of Wujiang Gorge is extremely fast, and it is not far from here, so it will be affected to some extent. In addition, there are many undercurrent reefs at the bottom of the river. If you are not very sure of your own technology, you are not very familiar with this area. Ordinary fishermen would not dare to go out at night.
Seeing that Xu Saburo's fishing boat was gradually leaving, Wang Yan did not hesitate, and flew directly to the cloud head, condescendingly, and followed closely.
This big night is a good time for demons and ghosts to worship. Xu Saburo's ghost qi has not dissipated. Even if he did not encounter the poisonous hands of the ghosts behind the scenes, he would inevitably provoke some other unclean things.
Although he has the ability to dissolve the ghost qi in his body for him, this is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Such a strong ghost qi is definitely not caused by him unintentionally, but caused by having real contact with ghosts.
If the root cause is not identified, the problem cannot be solved.
Xu Saburo supported the fishing boat and went straight to the upstream section along the calm river. Looking around, the surrounding area was very spacious. In the distance, lights could be faintly seen on the shore. It was indeed a good place to cast a net for fishing.
Xu Saburo parked the boat, anchored it, and at the same time spread the fishing net on the splint, but he was not in a hurry to throw it down, but untied the wine gourd around his waist, muttering to himself, not knowing what to say. what.
Then he pulled out the cork and sprinkled some wine on the river.
After doing this, Xu Saburo picked up the fishing net and threw it to the surface with all his might. At the same time, he sat down on the spot, picked up the gourd, and drank boldly.
After a while, he suddenly saw waves on the water surface, and there was a "swoosh" under the water. When Xu Saburo heard the sound, he put down the gourd, got up and collected the fishing net, his hand sank, and a large net of fish was immediately collected.
Drag to the deck, the fish in the net are alive and kicking, with great weight.
At the same time, the water on the river surface was surging, and then a person jumped out of the water and jumped directly onto the fishing boat, but it was a young man.
"Rokuro is here, hurry up! Brother, I have enough wine."
Xu Saburo saw the young man with a happy expression, and went forward to meet him.
"Brother Xu came early today!"
The boy clasped his fists and saluted, the two seemed to know each other very well.
"You sit first, I'll deal with the fish, and then cast a net!"
Xu Saburo invited the young man to sit on the deck, while he dragged the net of fish into the cabin, separated the net from the fish, and tidied up the net at the same time, and took it outside and threw it into the river.
Ignoring the situation of the fishing net, Xu Saburo took out a small desk from the cabin, with a porcelain cup and plate on the table, and peanuts on the plate.
Sitting opposite the boy, Xu Saburo had a smile on his face.
"Come on, let's drink two cups tonight!"
After setting the wine glass, Xu Saburo poured wine for the young man and said.
In this situation, Wang Yan, who was in mid-air, could see clearly, and as expected, that young man was not a human being, but a ghost!
The young man floated up from the river and was a water ghost in the Wujiang Gorge.
The mere water ghost, he naturally won't pay attention to it, and it can be destroyed with a flick of a finger.
However, seeing that the two of them behaved close together, the young man was in the water just now, and he had also caught fish for Xu Saburo. Now the two of them are drinking again, chatting and laughing, and they look like brothers and friends, which is strange.
The water ghost did not move for the time being, so Wang Yan simply did not rush to act, but quietly watched, wanting to hear what they had to say.
The two exchanged cups, drinking and admiring the moon, so happy.
"Rokuro! Let me tell you something. I met a Taoist priest in the city today. What did he see? Stop me and ask about the situation!"
Xu Saburo squeezed the peanuts with his hands, and while sending them to his mouth, he said vaguely to him, and at the same time he picked up the wine glass and drank it.
"Oh? That big brother is no trouble, right?"
Hearing this, the young man was stunned for a moment, and then asked.
"Trouble? What trouble can I have? I'm just a fisherman, and he can't do anything to me. He was sent away by me in a few words."
Xu Saburo said calmly, and then he complained.
"Alas! It's a pity that good luck makes people! You and I are separated by yin and yang. If not, how could it attract so much attention?"
The young man paused for a while and did not talk further on this topic.
"Let's not talk about that, it just so happens that I also have something I want to say to my eldest brother."
He looked sad, hesitated for a long time, but never opened his mouth.
"Rokuro has something to do, but it's okay to say it, big brother, listen!"
Seeing him so embarrassed, Xu Saburo couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
"Alas! I miss Wang Liulang, who drowned in Wujiang Gorge because of drunkenness. He was originally a ghost. Everyone scolded him and avoided it. Only the eldest brother never gave up. Friendship trumps fellow flesh and blood."
"Thanks to the eldest brother who did not give up and entertained the younger brother so kindly for so long, Rokuro is really unrewarded and deeply regrets it. It's just that this dinner tonight may be the last time your brother and I meet together!"
Hearing this, Xu Saburo looked surprised and asked quickly.
"What does Rokuro mean by that?"
Wang Liulang sighed helplessly, and only then did he tell the truth.
"To tell the truth, the younger brother is full of sins, and the underworld will pardon, someone will drown in the river tomorrow and become the younger brother's substitute, and I will also go to another place to reincarnate.
Burning text
After some explanation, Xu Saburo suddenly realized and understood.
Although his brother is not a human being, he is more affectionate than some people. After getting along these days, he has long been treated as a biological brother. Now that he is leaving, it is hard to let go.
Although he was very uncomfortable, he didn't show it.
Xu Saburo picked up the wine gourd, poured a full glass of wine for Wang Liulang, held the wine glass in both hands, brought it to him, and smiled heroically.
"Liu Lang, please drink this cup full, don't be too sad, you and I met once, although it is sad to be separated, but you are full of sins and miserable, this is something worth celebrating, you and I should Just be happy, this glass of wine honors you for your brother, and the right should be practiced for you!"
Looking at this scene, Wang Liulang's heart was full of mixed feelings, and a burst of sorrow.
"Thank you bro!"
He took the wine glass and bowed respectfully to Xu Saburo.
Wang Yan heard their conversation, and now he probably understands it. Although the story of the fisherman and the water ghost sounds absurd, it is quite interesting, quite touching, and quite legendary.
People are 30% afraid of ghosts, 70% of ghosts are afraid of people, people know that ghosts are scary, and ghosts know the poison of human hearts.
How many people in this world are wearing human skins, but doing ghostly things.
In this world, there are many real ghosts, although the body is dead but the spirit is immortal, as always, uphold the style of the gentleman, and keep the right path in the heart.
