Daguang was so frightened that he wet himself on the spot!
Bai Wenshui was bolder as he grabbed the plate and threw it at Lin Zhixian. However, Lin Zhixian waved his hand and smashed the plate to smithereens! With a stomp of his foot, the floor exploded!
When Bai Wenshui saw this, he obviously didn't dare force his way through. He was so frightened that he pushed open the window and jumped out!
When the others saw this, they followed suit and jumped out!
This restaurant was on the water. Half of it was on the shore, and the other half was on the river! Bai Wenshui's private room was the best one. It was surrounded by water on three sides and had great scenery. But if they jumped out of the window now, it would be a tragedy. The sound of splashing could be heard incessantly. All of them jumped into the water.
"Master, what do we do now?"
Fangzheng pressed his palms together. "Amitabha. Good will be rewarded and evil will be repaid. It's not that the time hasn't come."
Red Boy said, "Are we there now?"
"We're here." A cold glint flashed in Fangzheng's eyes. Although he could take action during the day, he could get Red Boy to change the person's memories afterward. But was it really okay to change other people's memories? At the very least, Fang Zheng didn't want to do that unless he had no other choice. From another perspective, no one would want to have their memories taken away, right?
Now that the night was dark and there were no outsiders, there was naturally nothing to worry about.
In the water, Bai Wenshui saw his surroundings pitch-black. However, he was good at swimming and quickly adapted. However, he vaguely saw something swimming in the water. It looked like a person! Although he couldn't see it clearly, Bai Wenshui shuddered when he recalled what he had just experienced. He didn't dare look as he hurriedly swam to the bank.
At that moment, a Buddhist proclamation sounded from above. "Amitabha. Patron, how much does it cost to save a person?"
Bai Wenshui and company were taken aback as they subconsciously looked up. They saw a white-robed monk standing in front of the private room's window. His head was shiny and his back was facing the light, preventing them from seeing his face. However, he exuded a peaceful and radiant feeling. The light behind him resembled Buddhist light.
Although he couldn't see Fangzheng's face, Bai Wenshui still recognized him. He imagined that Fangzheng was here to chase for his money. Therefore, Bai Wenshui shouted without a thought. "At least 100,000! Monk, it's a fair deal. We'll hand over the money and we'll hand over the corpse. What's the meaning of chasing me like this? "
"Amitabha. Since you've said so, this Penniless Monk naturally can't ask for more money. Patrons, have a safe journey. There's someone behind you. "Fangzheng smiled at them.
Bai Wenshui's heart chilled as though something was tugging at his trousers.
Bai Wenshui swam with all his might in fright. All he wanted was to reach the shore! However, he soon realized that something was wrong. The shore was right in front of him, but why couldn't he reach it no matter how hard he swam? After such a long time, he should have reached the shore by now!
"Brother Bai, something's wrong!" the mole man shouted.
Bai Wenshui also realized that something was amiss. After being roared at by Blackie and the man, he subconsciously shook his head and looked at the riverbank. It wasn't a riverbank! He swam to the center of the river!
"That's not right. We swam in the wrong direction!" Bai Wenshui shouted.
With this shout, the others also woke up. They turned their heads to look. Sure enough, they had all run to the center of the river!
Seeing this scene, all of them felt a chill run down their spines. After fishing corpses for so many years, they naturally knew how dangerous the water was! No matter how good you are at swimming, you are still not a fish. If you stay in the water for too long, there is no guarantee that you won't get into an accident! Death was often in the next moment!
"Brother Bai, what do we do? We are like ghosts running into a wall, "Ghosthead yelled.
"Swim! Swim towards the shore! Stay together. Don't split up! "Bai Wenshui's body turned cold. He felt more at ease with more people.
Everyone had similar thoughts. They did not dare split up as they followed Bai Wenshui to the riverbank. At that moment, the gloomy sky rumbled with thunder. A misty drizzle began. The group's mood turned even gloomier and colder.
At that moment, a boat floated over from afar. At the same time, the chanting of scriptures sounded. "Namo Amitabhaya Dota Jia Duo Ye …"
Everyone subconsciously looked over and saw a small boat floating over. At the bow of the boat was a white-robed monk holding an oil-paper umbrella. He had one hand placed vertically in front of his chest, and a string of Buddha beads was placed between his thumb and index finger. The monk's eyes drooped as he chanted the scriptures. His voice wasn't loud, but it lingered in their ears. It was deep and rhythmic, as though he was conversing with the dead.
Standing beside the monk was a child dressed in a red dudou. The child was fair and clean, and he held a huge bag in his hand. The bag was bulging, and it was unknown what was inside. From the looks of it, he was a child or disciple of the monk.
Sitting on the child's shoulder was a squirrel. Squirrel's paws were placed together as he opened and closed his mouth as though he was chanting the scriptures.
"A boat!" Little Ghost exclaimed in pleasant surprise.
"It's that silly monk from the day!" said Ghosthead.
"The monk shouldn't be afraid of ghosts, right?" mumbled Ghosthead.
The moment that was said, Bai Wenshui's eyes lit up. Although he found the monk a little odd, with him appearing at odd times and places, he couldn't be bothered. All he wanted was to live! Therefore, he was overjoyed as he hurriedly shouted, "Monk, over here! Save us! "
"Save us!"
"Save us!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
The shouts attracted the monk's attention, but he did not say a word as he continued chanting the scriptures. By the side, the child spoke first. "There are many vengeful souls in the river. My master is chanting the Rebirth Mantra to redeem them."
"Vengeful souls? Redeem them? "Upon hearing the words' vengeful souls', everyone could not help but shudder.
"Do any of you who have fallen into the water wish to be saved?" Red Boy turned his head and looked at them.
"Save me!" Bai Wenshui yelled.
"I can save you. A million per person. Not a cent less," said Red Boy.
"This … Where are we going to get that much money?" Ghosthead turned anxious. All of them had jumped out of windows, so who would bring money?
"No money? No saving! When you die, get your family to come over. We can still exchange them for money, "said Red Boy with a fake smile.
"You …" Upon hearing that, Bai Wenshui and company's faces flushed red and white. At that moment, they finally experienced the helplessness of waiting for death despite being saved.
"You will suffer retribution for leaving us in the lurch!" yelled Mole.
"Retribution? What do you think you will encounter? "Red Boy smiled strangely at Mole.
Bai Wenshui, Mole, Ghosthead, and company shuddered in unison.
"Brother Bai, what do we do?" asked Ghosthead.
"Let's quickly reach the shore while we still have the strength! We haven't seen those things in so long. They probably didn't follow us, "whispered Bai Wenshui. He could not waste his strength if the other party refused to save them.
