Calm returned to the shore.
A slender figure jumped into the water silently, causing only tiny and weak waves.
As soon as the figure entered the water, the dark-colored shorts were soaked in the water and stuck to her body. Her figure was slim, and she could vaguely see that she was a young girl.
The young girl is extremely dexterous in the water. The water of the Ghost River is turbid, especially under the surface. Although there are no aquatic plants or other things to block it, there are many underwater reefs and rapid undercurrents, making it even more difficult for the eyes to see.
But this girl was extremely familiar with the underwater situation. She quickly swam to the water where the sack was dropped and found the slowly sinking sack.
The man in the sack seemed to be exhausted, and his struggles became smaller and smaller.
The young girl's expression changed, and she quickly rushed forward, grabbed the mouth of the sack, pulled out her dagger and cut the hemp rope tightly tied to the sack.
The pressure on the body of the rope suddenly relaxed, and the person in the sack seemed to be reborn, twisting and struggling again.
The young girl quickly took off the sack with difficulty.
The young man in the sack looked up and saw the girl's face, his eyes widened in shock.
"Guluululu" a string of bubbles spit out from his mouth.
His face suddenly turned red.
The girl raised her head without hesitation, put her mouth on the young man's mouth, and took a breath.
The young man's eyes widened in horror, and a faint blush spread on his cheeks.
The girl didn't have any charming thoughts at all. After she was out of breath, she grabbed the young man by the collar and dragged him to swim to the shore, not forgetting to stuff the sack into his hand.
When he left, he swam slower than when he came, and the young girl stopped to give him another breath.
The young man was almost breathless, not from suffocation but from fear.
She molested him, not once was enough, she molested him twice!
He seriously suspected that this female gangster was here to take advantage of him!
The young girl climbed onto the shore first, and then dragged the young man ashore with difficulty.
The two men lay twisted in the mud, their wet clothes covered with mud.
A gust of wind came, and the clothes soaked by the river water stuck to my body, making me feel wet and cold.
The young man shuddered, coughed twice, and vomited several mouthfuls of fishy-smelling river water before he truly believed that he had regained his life.
He lived, survived.
He was overjoyed and suddenly turned over and hugged the young girl next to him.
"Ouch! How dare you kick me!" As soon as he hugged the girl, his knee was kicked hard and he screamed in pain.
His knees are going to shatter!
The most poisonous woman’s heart!
The young girl took the opportunity to stand up and said expressionlessly: "Take off your clothes!"
"What!" The young man firmly grasped the hem of his clothes and replied shyly: "Here? Even if I look like a human being, you can't be hungry here, right?"
He can now be sure that this female gangster is either here to save him or to take advantage of him!
The young girl glanced at the young man with an indifferent expression: "Do you want to take it off?"
"Take it off? Take it off!" The young man took off his wet belt. It was already soaked and uncomfortable to wear, so he might as well take it off and let it dry, so that he can feel more comfortable when he wears it later.
He was thinking this in his heart, but the words he spoke were clearly out of control: "We've already kissed each other, so seeing each other shirtless is nothing. I can't bear it! I won't let you be responsible for me anymore!"
The young girl curled her lips in disdain and made a vomiting motion. She took a gray dagger from behind the stone and threw it in front of the shirtless young man. Without even looking at him, she said, "Put it on."
The young man shook the clothes and said they were gray shorts, but the colorful patches on them were piled one on top, which was really hard to see.
The clothes still exuded a sour smell, which made him breathless.
He grinned, with a look of disgust on his face: "How do you wear this?" He patted his fair skin: "Is it worthy of my precious body?
? "
"Wear it if you like!" The young girl sneered coldly, and without saying anything else, she snatched the wet clothes that the young man had taken off.
"You!" The young man was speechless and had to put his clothes on reluctantly.
The young girl curled her lips and dragged out a naked man from behind the stone.
To be precise, it should be a corpse. There were no wounds on the whole body, but there was no breath at all. It was already dead.
The young man had just changed his trousers and was tying the sweat towel around his waist. When he raised his eyes and saw this scene, he screamed and jumped eight feet away: "This, this, what is this?"
"Dead person? Have you never seen a dead person?" The young girl slowly put the wet clothes he took off on the body.
The corners of the young man's mouth twitched slightly: "Who has never seen a dead person! But I have never seen a naked dead person!" As he said, he suddenly realized, frowned and asked: "He, you stripped him naked? You're a pervert?" !」
The young girl raised her eyebrows: "Yes, aren't you still wearing the clothes you took off?"
The young man was stunned, and unconsciously let go of his hand holding the sweat towel. After a while, he waved his hand wildly, as if he had been bitten by the sweat towel, and the corners of his lips trembled: "You, me, you, you are alive." The person who picked it up is still dead!"
The young girl looked at the young man as if he were a fool: "Isn't it a hooligan to steal him alive? Of course he is a gangster if he is dead."
Hearing this, the young man almost cried. He wanted to take off the clothes of the dead man, but when he saw that the girl had already put her clothes on the dead man, he was about to cry without tears.
This is really letting the dead wear the clothes of the living and leaving the living with nothing to wear! .
After packing up the body, the young girl stuffed him into a sack and tied it up again. She called the young man to come over for help and threw the sack into the river again, causing waves.
"Okay, at least we can delay it for a while, let's go." The young girl looked up and down at the young man, feeling a little awkward.
The young man tugged at the hem of his clothes and smiled as if he was crying: "My clothes are a bit short."
The young girl shook her head: "No, my face is a little white." She grabbed a handful of mud and applied it hard on the young man's face and neck.
The young man couldn't escape the clutches of the young girl. He jumped on his feet and muttered: "Tap it gently, tap it gently, it hurts, it hurts."
"It hurts like hell!" The young girl slapped the young man on the forehead: "I'm almost dead, and you're still saying it hurts!"
"My life has been saved!" The young man smiled shyly: "If I count with my fingers, you will come to save me."
"You are good at calculation, but have you calculated that you will wear the clothes of the dead?"
"..." The young man was speechless and choked: "Where are we going?"
"Going to the city? Are you still planning to celebrate the New Year in the ghost market?"
"I won't go. If I look like this, in a moment, I will be the biggest laughing stock in Chang'an City from now on!"
"You think you weren't before?"
"..." The young man clicked the wrong tooth and suddenly smiled: "You just despised me, you have to be responsible for me."
The young girl raised her foot and put her foot on the young man's leg. She kicked him so hard that he staggered: "Get back to the river!"
"Don't, if you didn't save me just now, you would be refusing to save me. If you kick me now, you would be murdering your own husband!" The young man's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and his words continued like a torrent of water.
The young girl regretted taking the piece of dog skin plaster out of the river. She should have let him soak in the ghost river until it turned white and swollen to see if he still had the energy to talk nonsense.
There are only a few people in the ghost market at this time, mostly people rushing out in a hurry. There are no boats on the ghost river. People who want to cross the river look at the river and sigh. It seems that they can only leave after dark.
The young girl and the young man stood by the river, with the surging water covering the soles of their shoes.
"Here, how can we go without a boat?" The young man frowned slightly.
"Swim over."
"What? Swim over?" The young man opened his mouth wide.
: "Are you crazy!" He moved his hands and feet: "I was just fed by those people and I can't swim across." He glanced at the young girl cautiously: "How about there is a boat after dark? Leave again?」
"No!" The young girl categorically refused: "The nights are long and the dreams are many, so we must leave here as soon as possible."
"Then, how about you carry me?" the young man asked tentatively.
The young girl glanced at the young man and said, "Can I have a little face?"
"..." The young man chuckled twice.
The young girl sighed helplessly.
Save people to the end, and send Buddha to the West.
Who makes this person be her biggest supporter in the future?
She thought for a while, then walked around behind the boulder, and there was a rustling sound. After a moment, she came out holding an ocher-colored oilcloth dress, puffing her cheeks and blowing air into it.
The young man was dumbfounded and shocked.
He watched helplessly as the oilcloth clothes bulged up, and then he saw that it was a strange waist-length short armor.
The young girl sealed the place where the air was blown and handed the Bijia to the young man: "Put it on."
The young man was stunned: "Why are you wearing this? What is this for?"
The young girl was a little impatient, so she put Bijia on the young man, tied the strings on both sides tightly, and stuffed a reed rod into his mouth.
She took a step back, took a closer look at the stunned young man, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you can go into the water."
The young man had forgotten to resist and allowed the young girl to drag him into the water.
The cold river water soaked his body, and the young man shuddered, and then he sank into the water. The fear of approaching death once again seized his mind.
He flopped around a few times and found that he did not sink into the water, but remained floating on the water.
He patted the water twice with his hands and feet, and said curiously: "Hey, that's strange, why can't it sink? Is this what Bijia is for? How did you do it?"
The young girl led the way and swam straight to the other side without looking back: "Shut up, do you think you have too much strength to use?"
The young man shrank his neck.
The girl is so fierce and he is so scared!
The Ghost River looks very spacious, and it is indeed very spacious and extremely strenuous to swim.
When the two swam to the other side, they were panting heavily and exhausted.
The two of them lay paralyzed on the shore like two dead fish.
The young girl only lay down for a moment. After her breathing stabilized, she jumped up like a carp and kicked the young man: "Get up."
The young man groaned: "Take a rest, take a rest, your legs are weak."
The young girl's ears moved slightly and her face darkened: "Get up quickly, a ship is coming."
The young man suddenly jumped up from the ground and looked towards the foggy water.
There was a layer of gray-blue mist covering the water, and the ship's lights were not on at this time. Standing on the shore, you couldn't see the situation on the other side at all, and you couldn't even see clearly on the water.
But in the silence, the rhythmic sound of rushing water was particularly clear.
The young man who had just escaped death was so frightened that he took a few steps back and said with a splitting heart, "No, are you here to catch me?"
The young girl pursed her lips and said nothing, and walked away calmly. Her feet stepped in the mud, making no sound, but leaving very deep footprints.
Seeing this, the young man suddenly understood and walked away, leaving a series of footprints in the opposite direction to the direction he left.
Shortly after the two left, a large boat stopped at the place where the two had just stayed. Several big men in black jumped ashore and examined the footprints on the ground. One of the big men turned around and said: "Mu Sheng Envoy, there are two people. , the footprints are of a man and a woman. But the strange thing is that there are only the footprints of coming, not the leaving footprints."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the boat canopy said softly "Huh", and the boat's hull shook slightly. A thin man with a slender appearance bent down and walked out of the boat canopy and came ashore.
bow
A dim yellow lamp swayed, illuminating the man's face.
This person is Li Sheng, who has rarely been seen since he entered Beijing. It's just that I don't know what he went through to become so thin that he looks like neither a human nor a ghost now, and he also lives in a shady place like a ghost market.
Li Shenglian stood in front of the two lines of footprints, looked down, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
"Where do these two people's footprints lead to?" Li Sheng asked calmly.
One of the big men in black whispered: "The footprints suddenly disappeared when they reached the main street."
"Go and have a look." Li Sheng said calmly.
The big man in black hurriedly led the way.
The footprints extend from the shore to the end of the mud. The main street is paved with irregular bluestones, and not a single footprint is left on these bluestones.
Sure enough, as the big man in black said just now, the footprints of these two people seemed to be suddenly cut off, ending abruptly at the edge of the mud.
Li Sheng lowered his head and looked for a moment, then slowly raised his head and saw several piles of stones piled up beside the road.
His eyes wandered along the piles of stones to see the houses not far away.
There were no footprints left on the stone or the house, but a piece of gray tile fell off the edge of the house next to the entrance of the cave, and the traces were still fresh.
He pursed his lips and smiled coldly: "Did they throw the person down with their own hands?"
"Yes, you must have died after seeing someone sink to the bottom before leaving." The man in black said.
The smile on Li Sheng's face became even colder: "Really?"
The big man in black murmured at the corners of his lips. He was sure that throwing a person into the Ghost River and drowning him could not do such a simple thing. Those three people were not stupid!
But now looking at Li Sheng's smiling face, he shuddered and was not sure again.
He opened his mouth and finally swallowed the words on his lips.
Li Sheng squinted and looked into the distance. With such strange behavior, a girl with a strange smile suddenly appeared in his mind.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw the footprints of two people, a man and a woman. If the woman was really the girl whose behavior was erratic and indistinguishable, both good and evil, if they were to chase her now, they would be in vain.
He was quiet for a moment, and finally waved his hand without knowing what he was planning: "Withdraw."
The big man in black was stunned for a moment, then quickly recovered, and the group reboarded the boat and crossed the Ghost River in the mist.
The river bank became quiet, and the mud on the river beach was filled with footprints, covering the footprints left by the two people just now.
Bright sunlight poured down from the hole, shining on the roof that was missing a gray tile.
A pile of dry firewood at the back of the house moved, and the young girl crawled out of it on her hands and knees.
She stretched out her hand and pulled the young man out.
The two sat down on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately they didn't search carefully, otherwise we would have been thrown into the river again right now." The young man was so frightened that he patted his heart and said.
The young girl rolled her eyes sharply: "If you hadn't stepped on a tile, we would have run out right now!"
The young man chuckled: "It's too high, I'm scared!"
"..." The young girl was speechless, rolled her eyes towards the sky, stood up and dusted off the dust and sawdust on her body: "Let's go."
The young man followed him: "Where are you going?"
The young girl looked at the young man like a fool: "I have to ask you, do you want to go back home or go to Yuhua Mountain?"
The young man thought for a moment and looked bleakly at the bright sunshine at the entrance of the cave: "Going back home is throwing yourself into a trap. There must already be a me on Yuhua Mountain. If I suddenly appear now, the real thing has become fake. "
The young girl smiled deeply: "You can see clearly."
"..." The young man shook his head mockingly: "I am a playboy, not a fool!"
He thought for a moment and finally made up his mind: "Even if it's a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, I'm going to try it."
young girl
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Just in time, let's see what Li Gui is like on Yuhua Mountain."
"You must not be as good-looking as me!"
"Yes, it must be uglier than you!"
