After Lao Liutou and I fell from the edge of the ditch, we fell into the water one after another. When I poked my head out of the water, I saw the bow of the boat standing in front of me.

I didn't expect that the warlock from the water camp actually hid a warship in the middle of the village.

Old Liu Tou was also stunned: "My dear, this boat is so big!"

Later, I learned that people in Yulu Village knew that there was a warship under their ancestral hall.

That boat was the capital for Shoushuiying to settle down on the river. When Shoushuiying retired, the boat was naturally disbanded and returned to the fields with them. It became an ancestral hall in Yulu Village to enshrine the memorial tablets of Shoushuiying soldiers.

However, Yulu Village had never seen the entire warship, and in their understanding, the ship would not be very big.

I patted the water with both hands and turned around, looking towards the waterway along the bow of the boat.

This underground waterway, which is large enough for warships to pass through, does not show any trace of artificial excavation. In other words, the water guarding camp used a natural waterway to get the warships to the predetermined position.

A thought suddenly flashed through my mind: This underground waterway was originally connected to the underwater underground palace. However, it was later cut off from the middle by the water guard camp, and the fish basket village was forcibly separated.

I quickly turned around and shouted to the boat: "Zhao Zhuang, lower the rope."

Zhao Zhuang and the others hurriedly lowered the rope and hoisted me up, but I pushed away the crowd and ran to the stern of the boat: "Old Liu, how long can a wooden boat last?"

Old Liu Tou said: "If it is well maintained, it will not be a problem to use it for decades. However, I have never heard of any wooden boat that is more than a hundred years old and can still be launched into the water. Otherwise..."

What Old Liu Tou means is very clear - our boat cannot be launched into the water!

I stood on the stern of the boat and looked at the ancestral graves of the seven families in the distance and said, "You have been fooled. It's not that my boat cannot be launched into the water, but it is of great use."

I pointed in the direction of the village entrance: "I have never understood what the water channel under the village does besides leaving a way for ghosts. Now, I finally understand."

"When the Shou Shuiying occupied Yuzhu Village, they realized that one day they would have a war with the underground water ghosts on the river. They guarded the entrance to the village and left behind their warships."

"As Old Liu said, a wooden ship cannot be incorruptible for more than a hundred years. Unless it turns into a ghost ship."

After Zhao Zhuang heard this, he raised his hand and gave himself two ear scrapers.

He has already figured out that the female ghost in the water knows the secrets of Yuzhu Village better than he does. The female ghost bewitched Zhao Zhuang to deal with the ghosts in the seven ancestral graves in order to destroy the warship first.

Without the ghost soldiers and warships, she would be invincible.

Old Liu looked at me eagerly and said, "Mr. Li, can't we attack the underground palace?"

"Yes!" I said solemnly: "Select seven people and follow me to the underground palace."

My voice sank again: "Don't think about surviving these seven people. Say goodbye to your relatives in advance. Tell your relatives in advance if you have anything to say. If you can see your relatives, just look at them more. Not only will you escape death, but you may not be able to survive."

There is no chance of reincarnation, so don’t even think about returning to your soul in seven days to see your family."

"Then tell the people in Yulu Village to hide in the mountains. I'm afraid this village will cease to exist soon."

I waved my hand and said, "Everyone, go!"

Zhao Zhuang was the first to leave, and the rest also followed. Only old Liu Tou was still standing beside me. He had no one to say goodbye to, so he could only stay with me.

Farewell between life and death is a kind of sadness, but before leaving to find that you have no one to say goodbye to, it is an indescribable sadness.

Old Liu Tou smoked several bags of cigarettes, and Zhao Zhuang and the others came back again. The first seven people were all wearing shrouds, which were the only things they could take with them in the village.

Zhao Zhuang walked in front wearing a melon skin hat. A girl behind him held on to Zhao Zhuang's clothes tightly: "Dad, you must come back. You must bring your brother back."

It wasn't that Zhao Zhuang didn't want to look back, but he didn't dare to see his daughter.

Ding Yi cried and walked away: "Brother, just let me go? We brothers can't be separated."

Ding Zhong, who was walking in front, said in a cold voice: "Shut your mouth and give our mother a good life. The Ding family's incense cannot be cut off. Besides, if I follow Mr. Li, you are afraid of nothing!"

After the five people walked to the side of the boat, they straightened their clothes and stepped out together. No one looked back or stopped.

Lao Qu, who was mixed in the crowd, suddenly picked up an old hunting pole and jumped onto the boat: "Mr. Li, count me in."

"Get out!" Lao Liutou slapped him: "You are the only one left in your family, what are you doing?"

Lao Qu was leaning on an old hunting pole and holding a knife in one hand: "My old lady is gone. If I don't take revenge, am I still a man? If you don't let me go, I will swim by myself!"

The second slap Lao Liu raised his head couldn't fall down. I said in a deep voice: "Take Lao Qu and the rest of the people don't come up."

I turned around and walked towards the bow of the ship: "Bring wine, light incense, and raise white flags. I want to summon ghosts. How many ghosts you can come after you raise the flags depends on how bold you are!"
