Liaozhai Great Sage

Seeing this, Zhu Yu couldn't help feeling a little elated: "Ashamed, ashamed, some clumsy works are not worthy of your praise. By the way, this is the first time Brother Li has met, and I don't know how talented Brother Li is. Why don't you use the scenery to express your feelings and write some poems?" Wen also let me wait for the tasting."

"I'm not good at writing poetry, I'm not as good as you guys, I'll make you laugh at me." Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said.

"How could it be? Brother Li is still a boy, why can't he write poems? You must be humble, Brother Li." The scholar next to him laughed.

"Extremely so."

There are also scholars who agree, wanting Li Xiuyuan to leave some poetry appreciation, and see how his literary talent compares with his own.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, and was about to say a few perfunctory words, when the sudden river wind blew, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Wait, did you smell something coming from the river?"

"No, it doesn't taste like much, Brother Li, what's the matter? Could it be that you can't write poetry and use this as an excuse." Wang Ping laughed.

Zhu Yu, Zhong Qingxu and other scholars also looked at him with a bit of sneer.

It seems that Li Xiuyuan's talent and learning are really not very good, and he doesn't even dare to echo in poetry.

"You haven't smelled such a strong smell?" Li Xiuyuan said.

He clearly smelled a stench wafting from the surface of the river. This smell was a little familiar, and he subconsciously became vigilant.

Zhu Yu said with a smile: "There is only the fragrance of ink on this painting boat, and the sound of singing, there is no strange smell. Brother Li must have smelled it wrong."

"Is it……"

Li Xiuyuan wanted to say something, but just as the words came to his lips, the painting boat suddenly shook, followed by a loud crash of falling into the water.

Everyone patrolled subconsciously, but saw a boatman who was paddling fell into the river, accompanied by a huge splash, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Someone fell into the water?" Seeing this scene, everyone was startled and hurriedly looked over.

Seeing the boatman next to him fall into the water, the boatman hurriedly took the oar to catch him, but when he fell into the river, he sank like a stone and disappeared immediately.

Not only did the man disappear, but the oars of the boatman who plunged into the river water seemed to be caught by something. The force was extremely powerful, and he was dragged directly to the river surface, and half of his body fell directly into the river water.

Immediately, the boatman felt a cold hand tightly grabbing his neck and dragging him into the river.

He wanted to call for help, but when he opened his mouth, river water poured in, making him unable to speak.

"What's wrong with the boatman? Why don't you save people when they fall into the water?" Scholar Zhu Yu said aside.

"That's right. If you don't rush to save people, you will die if you are too late." The scholar next to him also said anxiously.

Although three or five scholars saw someone falling into the water, they all stood aside and talked, but no one was willing to help save people.

The boatman was pulled by the strange underwater force. Although he struggled hard, he couldn't hold it without help. He immediately lost his balance and fell into the river.

"Watch out."

At this time, Li Xiuyuan rushed over, grabbed the boatman's foot, and stretched out his hand to pull it.

With the sound of splashing water, the boatman was directly pulled onto the painting boat by Li Xiuyuan.

"Guru~!"

A bubble appeared under the water, as if something had slipped into the river and escaped.

Chapter 1 Arrogant Noise

Li Xiuyuan was only slightly relieved when he pulled the boatman out of the water into the hand of painting the boat.

Finally arrived in time, if it was later, I am afraid that the boatman would also fall into the river.

But when Li Xiuyuan looked towards the river, he found that the other boatman had disappeared, and there was no one in sight.

"Young Master." The two guards hurried over.

Li Xiuyuan waved his hands intently: "Don't go near the river, there are foreign objects in the water."

In the blink of an eye, a boatman was pulled into the water, and there was no sign of struggling. This is definitely not a normal fall into the water. There must be something evil in the river.

"Ahem~!" The boatman coughed violently, spitting out several mouthfuls of river water.

"Boater, are you okay?" Li Xiuyuan helped him up, patted his back, and helped him breathe.

The boatman's face was pale, as if he had been frightened by something: "I, I saw a man under the water, and he held my oar with his hand... Then he grabbed my neck, trying to drag me into the river, saying What, the king is traveling ahead, our boats must not block the way of the king."

"Zibuyu is strange, boatman, you must be confused. How could someone pull you underwater? It may be that the oars got entangled in aquatic plants when you were rowing, so you accidentally slipped and fell into the water." Zhu Yu laughed.

"No, absolutely not. There must be water ghosts in the river. Xiao Wu was dragged into the river just now by the water ghosts. We can't move on, we have to turn back." The boatman said in panic.

"In broad daylight, there are no water ghosts. It's just a rural rumor." Zhu Yu shook his head and said, but he didn't believe it, and neither did the other scholars.

Scholars do not believe in ghosts and gods, and they have never encountered ghosts and gods.

But Li Xiuyuan frowned, neither believing nor disbelieving.

Water ghosts are unlikely, because the sky is not dark, and water ghosts can't show up. After all, ghosts are afraid of the sun.

Of course, some ghosts with high morality still have the ability to haunt for half a day.

"I believe what the boatman said about the water ghost." Wang Ping said righteously at this time.

"Oh, brother Wang, you really believe in ghosts and gods?" Zhu Yu asked in surprise.

Wang Ping smiled and said, "Recently, I have been reading a lot of books about ghosts and ghosts, but I believe that ghosts and ghosts really exist. Boatman, don't panic. If you encounter water ghosts, I have a way to cure them."

"Could it be that Brother Wang also has the ability to exorcise ghosts and catch demons? Today we have to see and see." One named Zhong Qing smiled.

"How difficult is it?" Wang Ping cupped his hands and signaled, "I only need a copybook, and I can make the water ghosts disperse."

Li Xiuyuan next to him looked at him suspiciously. This Wang Ping has changed a lot in a while, and he actually knows how to subdue water ghosts. It seems that the incident of painting skin last time stimulated him a lot. There is still time to watch Strange Stories.

"Please make room for me." Wang Ping smiled at the moment, walked to the table, spread out the paper, and rubbed the ink and brush.

"This is the method I read from a book. The book says that this method is the most effective when encountering water ghosts."

Wang Ping wrote with ink, and wrote: "This water ghost is actually not scary, but it also has weaknesses. What the water ghost fears the most is the word 'Xiao'. As long as I write this word and throw it into the water, the water ghost will run away immediately. Ying, so we can keep us safe, everyone, take care."

"Oh, it's so miraculous?" A few scholars next to him approached and asked.

Li Xiuyuan also asked curiously: "I don't know which word is it? If it is useful, I will learn it too."

"Brother Li, you are arrogant." Wang Ping said.

Soon a big word was written, he blew the ink dry, and then confidently took the copybook and threw it down towards the river.

"Hoo~!"
