947, burning strange money

 An old wooden boat quietly followed the current to the ferry in the middle of the night.

And with the appearance of the ships, a layer of mist permeated the river, which persisted and gradually became thicker. It looked a bit like ghost mist, but in fact it was not.

The real ghost mist is much more serious than this supernatural phenomenon.

Su Yuan frowned as he looked at the empty wooden boat floating down the river.

"Aren't those guys here yet?"

After the words fell, a red light seemed to flash behind him, and then the figures of Yang Jian and Liu San appeared. Yang Jian's face was expressionless, while Liu San's was obviously unwilling.

"Damn it, if only you had given me some more time. I have found traces. He is here. He has never left this ancestral hall. I am sure that everything is just hidden."

Yang Jian glanced at him coldly: "Taiping Ancient Town has been here for so many years. Even if it doesn't last for an hour and a half, the people guarding this ancestral hall will not be able to leave. You are too impatient. At present, dealing with the ghost lake is more important. , once the ghost lake is dealt with, there will be plenty of time waiting for you to investigate."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Su Yuan said calmly: "Where is Shen Lin? Isn't that guy late?"

"I don't know either. I'm not his father. I can't control when he comes. These captains are all mysterious. No one knows their details."

"It's almost time. Forget it. Since Shen Lin hasn't come yet, we won't wait for him."

As he finished speaking, Shen Lin suddenly appeared hungry again, just as he had appeared at the beginning, strangely appearing in front of the three of them.

"Sorry, I was delayed by some things. You shouldn't be late, right?"

Su Yuan glanced at him: "Not early, not late, just right. If you are an employee of the company, you must be the one who respects time the most."

Shen Lin smiled when he heard this, and did not wonder whether it was a compliment or a ridicule. Instead, he looked at the unmanned wooden boat and said, "We should be able to enter the ghost lake through this boat, right? But there will be some obstacles on the way. Abnormal and possibly dangerous."

"Where did this boat come from?" Liu San was curious and wanted to find out the source.

"It's just like the supernatural bus, no one knows." Yang Jian said, and then said: "It's exactly twelve o'clock, get on the boat, let's go to Ghost Lake."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked directly onto the wooden boat. For such a big man to get on the boat, the boat was actually very stable and did not shake at all.

Then Liu San and Shen Lin both boarded the boat, and only Su Yuan stood there motionless.

"Why don't you come up?"

Yang Jian looked at Su Yuan strangely, and Su Yuan said calmly: "You guys can get on the boat first. You can get on this boat, but I can't."

Isn't it?

The number of supernatural beings that a boat can carry is limited. It is conceivable that with the evil ghosts in Su Yuan's control and the terrifying level of the ghosts, once on the boat, as soon as they enter the real ghost lake, both the people and the boat will be paralyzed in an instant. sink.

Su Yuan didn't want to capsize the boat directly in the ditch, not to mention that there would be other evil ghosts uploading while the boat was moving.

This will undoubtedly increase the risk of capsizing the ship.

Hearing Su Yuan's words, the three of them had strange expressions on their faces.

This explanation will undoubtedly make them have other thoughts. For example, Su Yuan saw something wrong with the ship, or the other party planned to use this opportunity to target him. The most thoughtful one among them should be Liu San. Already.

However, Liu San has always been mysterious. Even now, it is difficult to tell whether the person coming is a paper man or the real person.

"Then how do you plan to enter Ghost Lake?"

"Of course I have my own way!"

Isn't it just to enter the ghost lake? Once you find the entrance, there are no more ways to get there.

"That's up to you."

Yang Jian didn't think much about it, out of trust, and then said, but after a few people got on the boat, the boat still leaned against the ferry, did not move, and did not float downstream. It still docked in place.

"What's going on? Why doesn't this boat leave?"

Shen Lin asked strangely: "Is it because of the lack of oars?"

"I'm overthinking it. Where can I find a paddle?"

Su Yuan said, and then, others discovered that he was taking out red balloons one after another from the shadow and tying them to his body. His whole body slowly floated up, suspended in mid-air, looking down at him. How many people are there.

Is there such a rough way to do it?

Looking at the three people looking up at him, Su Yuan slowly said: "This ship does not need to be controlled by humans. It will move along a certain route, but you need to pay to take the ship. Without money, this ship is It won’t work.”

"I see, payment? It shouldn't be money in the traditional sense." Shen Lin squinted his eyes and said, "Some kind of specific supernatural thing?"

"That's right." Su Yuan affirmed: "Without that kind of special money, this boat wouldn't be able to take you to Ghost Lake."

"Special money?"

Yang Jian looked a little strange, then he took out a colorful banknote and showed it to others.

"You should be talking about this money."

In the eyes of several people, this was obviously a fake seven-yuan note. It was obviously meant for people to spend, but to burn for ghosts.

"How do you have such money?" Liu San was surprised: "And it's a seven-yuan note with a large denomination."

"If you encounter a lot of weird things, you will naturally have some weird things in your hands. There is nothing to be surprised about." Yang Jian said: "Do you have research on paper money?"

"I know a little bit about it, but I don't know where this kind of banknote came from. I only know that paper money has some special uses, and the larger the denomination, the rarer it is. Generally speaking, banknotes are divided into three yuan, four yuan, seven yuan, and three yuan. Seven yuan is already the largest denomination, and there are very few of them left in the world now," Liu San said.

"Su Yuan is right. Under certain circumstances, you must have this kind of money. If you don't have it, this ship will not be able to carry us to Ghost Lake as it is now. You can borrow the money I'll give it a try."

As he said this, Liu San took the paper money from Yang Jian and immediately put it on the oil lamp on the bow of the boat to light it.

The paper money immediately burned.

The paper ashes flew away, and a cold wind blew around them. The wind condensed and formed a vortex that rolled up the paper ashes.

The air was filled with the smell of paper ash, but it quickly dispersed. All the paper ash dissipated and was blown to nowhere.

The old black wooden boat began to ripple slowly at this moment, leaving the ferry and drifting slowly downstream.

"It actually works. So this is the real purpose of paper money?"
