This Is The Yellow River Water Ghost
" Give us a safe Yellow River Ancient Path…Yiyahey…Yiyayo…"
At this point, Su Ming found a spot without chicken blood and knelt down.
His grandfather also knelt down piously.
The two of them prayed silently towards the Yellow River for a while before getting up.
Then Su Ming took the bowl and glutinous rice from his grandfather.
He placed the bowl at the bow of the boat and poured the glutinous rice into the bowl.
After lighting the candle, he inserted it into the snow-white glutinous rice and lit the incense.
Then, he placed the chicken head in the middle of the bow.
After kowtowing to the chicken head three times, he sank the glutinous rice with the incense stick and the big red rooster into the Yellow River.
After the incense stick sank into the river, it was quickly overturned by the yellow water. The big red rooster also disappeared after spinning two rounds in the vortex on the river.
Su Ming was afraid that something had gone wrong, so he turned to look at his grandfather.
Every time they left the ship, they had to pay their respects to the Yellow River King first. Although there was still a risk of an accident, this was the rule passed down by the ancestors of the corpse fishermen.
Seeing that his grandfather was satisfied, he nodded.
Only then did he relax and enter the canopy to control the boat.
This was Su Ming's first time operating this ship.
Grandpa stood on the deck and watched.
From time to time, he would even patiently guide her.
Su Ming imitated his grandfather, holding the oar under his armpit with one hand and stepping on the end of the handle.
He extended and retracted his legs, and the oar hit the water up and down to push forward.
At the beginning, he was a little rusty, but after ten minutes of continuous operation, he gradually got used to this rhythm.
"Buzz!"
After rowing for a while, Su Ming turned on the engine.
This was a reverse upstream swipe. Not only would manual operation not last long, but it would also be especially slow.
Grandpa sat on the deck, smoking as he looked at the river in front of him.
The propeller quickly pushed the boat upstream.
The smoke that his grandfather had just spat out was blown away by the wind on the river, causing his hair and beard to move.
"Su Ming, the thing in the river has noticed you.”
Su Ming heard Susu's voice when he was looking at his grandpa.
"Eh?"
"It's fine. These things won't easily make trouble. Even if they do something, it won't be a problem for us to cooperate and take care of them.”
"As long as the biggest guy doesn't come out, it's fine.”
Su Ming walked out of the boat and looked at the rolling yellow water under the boat.
He looked at the wide river. Other than the yellow river, there were some dead trees floating on the water. There were also some branches and other household trash that had washed down from upstream.
Grandpa saw Su Ming coming out of the boat, so he knocked his pipe on the edge of the boat.
Amidst the splashing sound, the sound of unburnt tobacco falling into the water could be heard.
"Little Ming, you have to look at the water carefully. How could he see the underwater world with his naked eyes?”
Su Ming repeated his grandfather's words several times in his heart, but he still didn't understand.
"Grandpa, what do you mean by looking with your heart?”
Grandpa put away his pipe and said,"Close your eyes and listen to the sound of water first. Feel the changes in the sound of water." As long as you can hear the change, you will naturally know how to look carefully.”
Su Ming found a seat on the deck and sat down.
Then, he closed his eyes and listened carefully.
"Su Ming, the method that your grandfather said is indeed good, but if you try to enter the turtle state, you will probably be able to distinguish the changes in the sound of water.”
Hearing Marinda's sweet voice, he didn't say anything.
Closing his eyes and calming his heart, he quickly entered the state of turtle breathing according to the mental cultivation method that Marinda had taught him.
He felt the wind on the river surface, and the boat was pushing forward.
Then, he quietly listened to the change in the sound of water, from the bed breaking through the original water surface by the river to the sound of the waves hitting the boat.
And the sound of water flowing nearby.
"Feel the changes in the flow of the water surface, feel the changes in their direction, and feel the different sounds each time.”
Susu kept reminding Su Ming.
After sitting quietly for more than ten minutes.
Su Ming felt that the sounds around him were getting clearer and clearer. In the end, he even had the illusion that he could analyze the changes in the water surface of a large area nearby.
After coming out of the meditative state of the Turtle Breathing Technique, Su Ming felt as if his heart had been wiped clean and was as still as a mirror.
He sighed in his heart, This is probably Heart of Tranquil Water!”
Then, when he looked at the river again, he saw that it was still flowing with yellow water.
However, he noticed the difference between the turbulent water ripples.
He could vaguely see some black fog in some places.
"These are the filthy things?" Su Ming muttered.”
Grandpa followed Su Ming's gaze and looked at the river. He nodded slightly.
"This is the correct way to look at water," Marinda said."In the future, as you practice, you'll be able to see water more and more clearly."”
"What you need to do is to practice every day!”
After learning this way of looking at water, Su Ming kept looking at the river.
He kept analyzing the differences between the places.
He was also looking for the filthy and evil things that followed him under the water.
The waterway was relatively straight, and they soon arrived near the battlefield.
The things in the water seemed to be waiting for an opportunity, or they were afraid of the two people on the boat.
He had been hiding underwater all this time and did not make any movements.
At this moment, a large group of people surrounded the battlefield.
Some of them were wearing mourning clothes and white hats.
He even carried a coffin and placed it on the battlefield.
Su Ming saw a child holding a photo, and a woman was crying beside the child.
He could hear her crying from dozens of meters away.
"Bao 'er's father, how can you leave?”
"How is my mother going to live in the future?”
“......”
Grandpa stood on the bow of the boat and watched.
He said,"Get closer, but don't land!”
After saying that, he added.
"We can't dock until we're done! After paying our respects to the Yellow River King, we will definitely have good luck.”
This was the Yellow River Water Ghost. No matter what the road ahead was, at least he had to bring along some good luck with his words.
