No matter how difficult the road ahead is foreseen, life must go on every day after all, passing by quietly without leaving a trace, just like the water of the Ganges River.

In the blink of an eye, it is already three months later, the footsteps of spring are about to leave, and the smell of summer has been spread across the earth through the scorching sun above our heads.

These few months of sailing have made me develop an indescribable dependence on the Penglai, just like I have accepted my darkened skin after staying on this land for nearly half a year.

"This may be more manly." When I got up in the morning, after washing up, I looked at myself in the mirror. I couldn't help but smile and comfort myself, and then went to get the wine glass out of habit. After several months of sailing,

It also gave me a bad habit, which is being very dependent on alcohol.

Holding the wine glass, I walked onto the deck. The hard-working Singer was already cleaning the deck. Johnny was still fishing. Huigener glanced at me and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you started drinking without breakfast. Uh.

I don’t think it’s a good habit.”

I walked over, placed my hand on Hui Gen'er's bald head out of habit, and said, "People sometimes don't live for good habits, do they? Especially after seeing so many messy underwater creatures."

Hui Gen'er curled her lips and stopped talking. She drank a large glass of milk in one go like drinking, and sighed with satisfaction.

He knew that what I said was true. We drifted along the legend. Although sometimes we went into the water to explore and sometimes we didn't, we did see a lot of strange aquatic creatures, including fish, turtles, and the only thing in common was the water snake.

The thing is that they are extremely aggressive and contaminated creatures.

During the three months of rafting, there was actually no fixed route. Sometimes I was on a tributary, and sometimes I was on the main stream.

But now, we can no longer find the mysterious underwater murder legend. We just drifted down the river to where we are now. Johnny said that today he will sacrifice a magic weapon that my master left for him.

, final positioning.

This is not a hasty choice. In fact, three days ago, we experienced the place where the last legend happened, where Walma almost died in the water and was besieged by a group of cruel and bloodthirsty fish, one of which was that

Giant catfish, if Tao Bai, who is as strong as a mountain, did not suddenly show his strength, Walma would definitely not be able to come back from the water.

Despite this, he is still very persistent in his adventurous career and eagerly hopes to see the final existence.

But thinking of this, I took a sip of the wine in my glass and discovered that the place we were in now was a small town. According to Johnny's map, after the small town, there would be a large desolate area, and the Ganges River would go through a period of no man's land.

, Johnny judged that the final place where the existence stayed was under a section of river bank in no man's land, but is there any other deep meaning in it?

While I was thinking, Singer enthusiastically served me a breakfast, which was a very Western breakfast of fried eggs, hash browns and bacon, because it was simple and very filling.

Because I thought about this problem, I couldn't wait to ask Johnny for confirmation, so I walked to Johnny who was fishing with a plate of breakfast and potato pancakes in my mouth.

"This bacon actually tastes very good." Johnny saw me sitting down next to him, and without hesitation he grabbed a strip of bacon from my plate, put it in his mouth and started chewing it.

But I didn't mind, I just expressed my judgment in front of Johnny: "Uncle Johnny, what do you think? Is that existence wise? Why choose a deserted place to avoid something? But it is so close to a building

Small town?”

Johnny's expression was originally very cheerful. After hearing my question, his expression stiffened for a moment and he stopped chewing bacon. Then a look of pain appeared on his face. He was silent for a long time before turning to me and said

To: "Don't make specious judgments. I don't want to think of this! I don't even want to recall some things. Since I can't escape, can I make my mood lighter?"

What does this mean? I got some incomprehensible words from Uncle Johnny, and my heart felt a little heavy. Whenever I mentioned that existence, Johnny was always vague. The most reliable information we have now is that this existence is a

There is one corpse, and the rest are completely unknown.

But what kind of corpse is it? A corpse like that of the old village chief? Thinking of this, there is a painful expression on my face. If it is the old village chief, I don't want to face it a second time.

At this time, it was 7 o'clock in the morning, and everyone was getting up one after another, because the sun was already very hot at this time, making people too hot to sleep anymore.

After a night of slow sailing, the Penglai has completely escaped from the small city and officially entered the desolate no man's land. To be precise, in this remote area, except for the occasional scattered villages, almost no one can see it.

When we reach the inhabited area, if we continue forward, we will reach a truly uninhabited land that is probably hundreds of miles long.

I don't know why, but as soon as the ship sailed here, my mood became a little gloomy, and the strong summer sunshine couldn't dispel the gloom in my heart.

It’s not just me, everyone seems to have this mood to some extent, as well as some sense of crisis. Chengqing is already wiping the magic weapon repeatedly, while Brother Chengqing is arranging his bottles and jars in order.

, Lu Shan, Tao Bai and Hui Gen'er also worked harder than before on their morning exercises on the deck.

Everyone felt like they were making final preparations, except Walma and Johnny.

Walma didn't understand the definition of a dangerous situation at all. As for Johnny, he was really calm. He hadn't taken out the magic weapon passed down to him by his master, but he just felt that fishing was more serious.

I took a long breath, grabbed a stool, sat next to Johnny, and asked, "Uncle Johnny, when will you start searching for magical weapons?"

"When I harvest more." As he spoke, Uncle Johnny glanced at the fish bag next to him. Different from catching nothing along the way, there were already two or three fish in the fish bag. I lifted the fish bag to take a look.

I found these fish struggling fiercely in their pockets

Harmful, just one look at it gives people a feeling of extreme violence! One even almost bit my finger. Of course I will not ignore the faint purple traces on these fish, but I also discovered that they were almost contaminated.

They are all carnivorous fish.

"Originally, their nature was not that aggressive, except for their prey! Now every one of them will attack people. Fortunately, apart from the occasional cargo ship, there is no human habitation in this section of the river." Uncle Johnny's eyes were very worried.

, I don’t know what he is thinking, is it the past that he still refuses to talk about?

Therefore, I wisely avoided this topic and asked directly: "So what does it mean to be rich?"

"That's this kind of special bait that will attract a fish every time I put the rod down, and that's pretty much it." Johnny said lightly.

At this time, I noticed that Johnny's bait was a kind of bait with a light red color. I had never paid such attention to it before because I had not harvested anything. I twisted a little bit and put it on the end of my nose. There was a saying

The lingering smell made me long for and resist from the bottom of my soul. Finally, I couldn't help but ask: "What kind of bait is this?"

"There is a special talisman in it, and this talisman was left by your master. He did not explain it in detail. He only told me that this talisman was written with a special kind of blood. If you want to confirm it by then

You can use this to detect a large area. The contaminated creatures will definitely be sensitive to this. Then, I decided to burn it into talisman ashes and put it in the bait." Uncle Johnny took a sip of wine and explained calmly.

"What a genius idea." I couldn't help but mutter.

At the same time, Uncle Johnny's fishing rod sank, and another fish was hooked. In the distance, a general cargo ship smaller than us happened to pass by, and the crew on the ship was waving to us.

Singh drove the Penglai and got a little closer to the general cargo ship. The crew on the ship greeted us: "Are you a novice, shipping goods for the first time? Then I advise you, it is best to go around along the tributary in front.

Don't think about taking a shortcut on this section of the river. We just made a detour and returned. This section of the river is not very peaceful, and there is a river god who doesn't have a very good temper."

Johnny was translating the crew member's words for me, and Singer had already said thank you and threw a bottle of wine to the enthusiastic crew member.

The general cargo ship left, and I couldn't help but ask Uncle Johnny, why didn't Singer even ask why? Uncle Johnny closed his eyes, rubbed his brows and said, "This is actually related to the existence we are looking for.

It has nothing to do with it, it’s a very ancient legend about navigation! There are some sections of the river that boats are not allowed to go to. They are taboo places for the river god, and the uninhabited land in front of it happens to be such a place."

"Why is it in that place? Is it a coincidence? Or is there something in those river sections?" In fact, from the bottom of my heart, I don't believe it is a coincidence.

But Johnny was obviously a little irritable. He said loudly: "I don't know everything. Don't ask me about everything. The taboos have been passed down since ancient times and were not decided by me."
