The boatman was not very old, probably in his forties, and his face was as pale as snow.
As soon as he got close, he could smell the rotting corpse on the boatman, which was even more smelly than the big yellow dog.
After all, it was Wu Xie's first time interacting with him. He couldn't stand it anymore and went to the bow of the ship with the little brother.
As the boatman had to hold the boat at the stern, sitting at the bow could avoid the stench.
However, the dog didn't board the boat with the others. It seemed to be waiting for something on the shore.
The coachman drove his cow to the small boat behind him, and the big boat pulled the small boat forward.
"Which bowl of rice did you eat?"
After the boat left the dock, the man who was rowing the boat suddenly asked.
"What meal?" Wu Xie asked in confusion.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Sansheng tugged at his clothes, signaling him not to speak nonsense.
"Which mountain are you from?" Wu Sansheng said.
This was just some slang in the martial arts world.
If he didn't know, it meant that he wasn't from the underworld.
If that was the case, it was very likely that people would remember him when he traveled in the martial world.
However, Wu Xie had already revealed some information.
Therefore, Wu Sansheng could only ask the other party a question.
"This little brother should have guessed it, right?”
The boatman smiled and asked Wu Xie.
He could already tell that Wu Xie was a rookie. It would be easy to get information from Wu Xie.
Although Wu Xie didn't understand, Wu Sansheng's question was relatively simple.
"I'm guessing you're from Xiangxi, right?”
Wu Li had mentioned this person's background before, so Wu Xie asked.
The boatman nodded and said,"Little brother's trick is very bright."”
"Friend, don't use these slang words. Times are different now. Don't use your old moves to test us.”
Pan Zi couldn't bear to listen to this anymore. What era was it now? Why were they still using such confusing slang?
"Haha! Little brother is right, I was overthinking.”The boatman smiled.
"What is slang?" Wu Xie asked, pulling Pan Zi.”
"It's just some slang in the martial arts world to find out the other party's background without letting others know.”Pan Zi explained.
Wu Xie's expression was awkward. No wonder he didn't quite understand what she was saying. It turned out that she was testing him.
"You guys aren't here to sightsee, right?”The boatman asked.
"You used to be in the martial arts world too, brother?" Wu Sansheng chuckled.”
"I couldn't make a living. I was a corpse herder since I was young. After I came here, I took root here.”The boatman said.
This person seemed to be very talkative. On the contrary, the old man driving the carriage kept looking into the distance.
The people on the boat chatted casually for a while, testing each other's background.
"No matter which gang you are from, remember, don't look into the water later and don't speak loudly.”
As the boat sailed quickly along the current, the person who was rowing the boat suddenly said to everyone.
"What's wrong? Was there anything special about this?”Wu Xie asked curiously.
"Do you see that hole in front of us? We're going through that water hole."
That is where the River God lives. If you disturb the River God and something happens, don't blame me for not reminding you.”
Hearing this, Wu Xie pulled Wu Sansheng and asked,""Is it really that mysterious?"
"Just don't act recklessly."
Wu Sansheng was also an experienced person. He naturally understood that there were some rules that could not be broken.
"Now you know why he's the only one who dares to sail a boat on this river, right? The cave was very scary.
Many people had already died inside. Corpses were everywhere. They were left behind by the disrespectful people who had been punished by the River God in anger.”
At this moment, the old coachman who had been silent before said.
"Corpses? The smell of rotting corpses? Could Third Master be a corpse cave?"
Pan Zi said as if he had recalled something terrifying.
Wu Sansheng was still thinking when Wu Xie asked,""What is a corpse cave?"
"It's a place where corpses are piled up. Corpse caves often appear during wars.
There would be something unclean inside. Only the stench of corpses could cover up the smell of living people and thus fool them.”
Wu Li explained to Wu Xie when he saw that he was not sure.
"This little brother knows a lot, but our corpse cave wasn't left behind during the war.
Most of them are corpses that flowed out from the back of the mountain. Presumably, you guys went to the back of the mountain to find a fight like those people, right?”
After the boatman heard Wu Li's words, he said to the crowd with a faint smile.
"No, no, we're just here to play.”Wu Xie hurriedly said.
How could he casually admit to this?
Fortunately, the boatman had no intention of pursuing the matter.
It was as if they were already used to outsiders coming to their place to fight.
"Brother Li? Have you ever come across such a place?" Wu Xie asked.
"I've never encountered one." Wu Li shook her head.”
"Third Master and I did meet once. It was in a mountain in Shanxi.
It was said that during the war against China, thousands of people were killed there and their corpses were thrown into that cave.”
Pan Zi explained to Wu Xie as he recalled.
"Is there really something unclean?" Wu Xie asked.
Pan Zi nodded and told Wu Xie about his experience.
Before Wu Li left the ancestral village, it was Wu Sansheng and Pan Zi who partnered up to fight with their brothers.
That time, the ancient tomb they were going to was blocked by a corpse cave.
If they took a detour, they would have to go around a huge mountain, which was a waste of time.
Therefore, Wu Sansheng wanted to use the corpse cave to block the place they were going to as soon as possible.
However, for safety reasons, Wu Sansheng and the others found two ducks and two chickens.
Then, he tied the camera to the chicken and duck, wanting to see what was inside.
After they chased the chickens and ducks inside, they found bones everywhere, as well as a lot of rotten meat.
There were even some lumps of meat stuck together. The scene looked very disgusting.
They had been fighting in reverse to begin with, and they had experienced places that were even smelly than toilets.
If it was just disgust, they could accept it.
However, as the chickens and ducks went deeper, endless wildfire began to appear.
The most terrifying thing was that these chickens and ducks had stopped at some point, as if they were stopped by something.
They couldn't advance or retreat.
Suddenly, half a face appeared in the camera.
Upon closer inspection, one side of the face was fleshy and the other was full of bones.
There were also a large number of maggots crawling on it.
Seeing this, how could they still dare to make way?
They could only obediently take a detour.
From then on, they had a certain shadow of the cave.
Perhaps it was just as Wu Li had said, the only way to pass through safely was to rely on the stench of corpses.
Or only people with a certain level of cultivation could pass.
"Tsk tsk! You're making me want to go and take a look." Wu Xie said.
He was an atheist. Every time he heard these things, he always felt that they were making things up to persuade him not to participate.
Wu Sansheng and Pan Zi shook their heads helplessly.
Who would believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes?
