Chapter 160 Knock on the Door Gorge
In the evening of that day, the Biaolang Hu walked to a narrow and narrow water area, with towering cliffs on both sides.
The river winds by and the water flows rapidly.
Manager Li ordered people to hang strange lanterns with runes on the bow and tail of the big ship and on both sides.
After dinner, Su Yu stayed in the same room with the children, lit an oil lamp, and told them the story of the King Kong Calabash. Just when Mo and the others were listening with relish, the knock on the door rang.
"Young Master Su, I'm going to pass the Knoezhang tonight. I have to explain some things to you."
It is the voice of Manager Li.
Su Yu said: "Please come in."
After Manager Li came in, he closed the door gently, looked at the three children, and smiled and said, "Young Master Su, can you let the three children avoid it for the time being?"
Su Yu could see that the words of the person must have a deep meaning, so he sent the three children to the next room and asked Manager Li to sit down.
"Mr. Li, please tell me."
"That's right," said Li. "The waterway we walked tonight is called Shijian Gorge. Those of us who walk on the waterway are used to being called Knoemenxia. Mr. Su must have discovered that most of the ships docked at the Yecheng Wharf we passed before. In fact, as usual, the Polang Hunter will try to pass Knoemenxia during the day. The reason involved some indescribable things."
Su Yu probably understood, no wonder the lanterns on the boat would be replaced with runes in the evening. It turned out that this place was still filthy?
"Why is it unnamed? Please give Manager Li a detailed explanation."
Manager Li smiled and came closer. His face, white and beardless, looked mysterious and cautious under the reflection of the candlelight.
"Why is it called Knocking Gorge? It's strange. As long as you pass by Knocking Gorge at night, you will hear a knocking sound when you go to bed at night. If you open the door, you can't see anything, but something happens to someone the next day. You either become a crazy person or become dementia. The older generation of shipwrecks said that this is being caught, so everyone will try to avoid sailing here at night."
Su Yu suddenly frowned and said, "Since those who open the door have become demented, crazy and stupid people, how do you know that something happened because of the door that opened?"
Manager Li said: "Of course it was because someone peeked through the crack in the door? Did Mr. Su not believe me?"
Su Yu quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I just said it casually. Of course, I believe that Manager Li has good intentions."
Manager Li nodded and continued: "Before leaving, my boss told me that you are in a hurry, so we chose to pass by the Knocking Gorge at night. I used to knock on the Knocking Gorge many times before, and I could hear knocking on the door every time, but as long as I instruct the guests in advance, don't open the door no matter what, there will be no accident."
"So that's it," Su Yu bowed and thanked, "I will definitely pay attention. Thank you Manager Li for your reminder."
Manager Li hurriedly said, "It's easy to say, the children are young, and I'm afraid of scaring the children, so I asked Mr. Su to hold them back. Tonight, Mr. Su would be better off letting the three children in the same room as you, so that I can take care of them."
"This is natural, Manager Li can rest assured,"
"Then I won't bother you, Mr. Su, get off early."
After Manager Li left, Su Yu called Chu Mo and the others back to the room.
The rooms on the boat will not be large in size. After all, the Polang is a merchant ship, not a private cruise ship like Chu Yan.
There were two beds in Su Yu's room, and there was only half a meter distance between them. There was nothing else except a small square table and two stools.
Chu Mo was so excited when he heard that he would live in the same room with Su Yu tonight, he yelled to let Su Yu finish the story of the Cauldron.
After Su Yu inserted the door bolt, he sat cross-legged on the bed, took out a plate of melon seeds, a stack of fried peanuts, a plate of beef sauce, and three candied haws. The children each had one.
"Okay, then let's continue talking,"
The sound of wind and waves came in from the gap in the window, the candlelight swayed, and the three children were eating the melon seeds in their hands, listening to Su Yu's story with concentration.
No matter which evil spirit is hidden in this Knocking Gate, Su Yu made up his mind not to provoke it. Anyway, as long as the door doesn't open.
As for whether the children are afraid? The answer is no.
Needless to say, Jinglai and Ciyin are all monsters, and they can’t count the number of monsters they have seen.
Chu Mo, not afraid of heaven or earth, even a child who was not yet one year old dared to follow Ciyin to go to Xiaju Cave Heaven, and he was not afraid of seeing those charming things. This child didn't know what fear meant since he was a child.
But then again, Chu Mo has developed very quickly since he was born, and he seems to have not grown up again after he was five or six years old.
It's really strange. Su Yu has never understood what this phenomenon is like in Chu Mo? But one thing is certain, Chu Mo is not an ordinary person.
But this is good. If she is at the previous development speed, she will soon become a big girl, an aunt, and then an old lady.
This is not what Su Yu wants to see.
Before we knew it, the story was coming to an end. The seven brothers of the gourd finally gathered together and planned to find the snake to make the final accounts.
The children widened their eyes, held their breath, and were excitedly waiting for the climax part.
The lamp oil in the oil lamp had already burned out, and the room was illuminated by a night canopy fruit.
At this time,
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
A knock on the door,
The three children frowned at the same time and looked at the door. They were obviously dissatisfied with the knock on the door interrupting Su Yu's story.
Su Yu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about him, let's continue listening to the story."
"Dongdongdongdongdong", the knock on the door continued.........
Su Yu frowned and looked at the door. Through the Qi-seeking technique, his eyes passed through the wall and saw the scene in the corridor. As Manager Li said, there was indeed nothing.
So, how did this sound come out?
Unexplained supernatural phenomenon?
"Dongdongdongdongdong",
"It's so annoying. Who knocked on the door in the middle of the night?" Chu Mo covered his ears angrily and said with dissatisfaction: "Brother, will I go and send him away?"
"No," Su Yu smiled and said, "No one should open the door tonight, just let him knock and see how long he can knock."
Jinglai, who was rolling up his sleeves and planning to open the door, heard this, kicked off his shoes angrily and sat on the bed with his shoulders on his shoulders.
"But we want to listen to the prince telling stories. It's annoying to knock outside the door like this," Chu Mo pouted with anger on his face.
Su Yu raised his wrist and drew a half arc in front of him, creating a spiritual barrier around him, completely isolating the sound.
The translucent light shield is visible to the naked eye and emits a glimmer of light.
"Is this better?" Su Yu smiled.
"Okay, okay," Chu Mo clapped excitedly and said, "Brother, I also want to learn your skills. Jinglai and Ciyin have both skills, Aunt Qin has them, Ali has them, and I also want to learn them." Well? That's right... I'm sorry, I don't know how to teach, and your mother has advised you not to enter the practice of cultivation.
"Ahem, you can't learn it. This... This... Your bones are too poor and you are not suitable for learning skills. You should study hard," Su Yu really didn't know what kind of excuses to look for.
As soon as he said this, Jing Lai and Ciyin sneered at the same time, one left and one right attached to Chu Mo's ear, not knowing what he was muttering.
Chu Mo had big eyes and turned the wheels straight,
After a while,
"Brother, Jing Lai told Ciyin that my bones are better than you. Of course, I definitely don't agree with the two of them. I must be worse than Prince, but I must be better than Aunt Qin. Let me teach me?"
Chu Mo used her tricks of acting cutely, ran over and jumped onto the bed, and rubbed Su Yu's back and shoulders.
God is sorry to see, I really can't teach you, Su Yu said with a serious look on his face:
"What do they know about the two little kids? My brother is right and you can tell at a glance that you are born to study. Believe me, study hard, and wait until you grow up, the great scholars of the four major academies will definitely come and beg you to study in their academies."
"I don't believe it," Chu Mo curled his lips, "Brother is lying to me. Every time you lie, your ears will turn red."
"Is that true?" Su Yu was stunned, subconsciously touched his ear, and looked at Jing Lai Ciyin opposite him in surprise, "Is it red?"
Jinglai and Ciyin looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
Chu Mo, who was standing behind Su Yu, showed admiration at the two of them. Good thing, we three deserve to be a tacit trio.
Su Yuyu said earnestly: "Cultivation really requires talent, you are almost there,"
"Brother~~~ teach me,"
"Cultivation is very hard, and I can't eat candied haws. Do you think I usually eat candied haws? No?"
"Then I won't eat it."
"When you are older, your elder brother will consider it again,"
The two of them went back and forth, one by one, and the other said, Jing Lai and Ciyin rolled their eyes across the street. Isn’t it just to teach their children to practice? Is it that difficult?
Su Yu understands Chu Mo's personality. Once a child has a certain idea, it will definitely not be fishing for two days and three days of drying the net. He will definitely be pestering himself to force himself.
Su Yu didn't care much about Mrs. Xu's instructions back then.
As for practicing, it is a good thing. If you don’t say anything else, your skin will improve. If you get older, you can live longer than others.
He is now in the seventh realm of the sea, and his life span has reached nearly three hundred years old. He doesn't want Chu Mo to die of old age when he is only 100 years old.
So now I can only delay. When I come to Northern Xinjiang in the future, I will ask Sister Qin to ask for some basic practices in practice. If I can understand it, I will teach you myself.
If you can't understand, find a master for Chu Mo. Of course, this master must be a kind of tutor and cannot be too far away from Su Yu. He can't bear to leave the child away.
"Okay, okay, I will teach you when I arrive in northern Xinjiang. Is it OK?"
"Okay, thank you, brother," Chu Mo immediately stopped pounding his back and shoulders, ran back to the opposite bed, sandwiched between Jinglai Ciyin,
"Brother, let's continue telling stories."
