Chapter 1766

At first sight, I can't stop drinking.

I'm not afraid that they will make trouble for me, but I'm really in a good mood in the face of these cheerful Cao Gang men.

I took a gulp from the wine world, but I almost choked and puked. I frowned so hard that I swallowed it!

This wine is not only of high degree, but also extremely spicy. Once in the throat, it's like swallowing molten steel magma. All the viscera are burning.

"Good!" Cried the old man admiringly.

"Come on!" "All the men around holding the wine jar are reaching forward and shouting.

This is the second wine ceremony, called Tongxin wine.

Just so-called: not concentric with the ship, into the water eight thousand jin!

That is to say, if people on the same boat don't work together, once they fall into the water, they will be like a big iron ball with a weight of 8000 Jin tied to them, and they deserve to drown.

It was originally a vow when we sailed, but later it was also changed into a toast, which was inevitable!

I forced myself to endure the heat of the moment and took another sip.

"The wind, the waves and the heart, you and I have all the wine!" While they were drinking, they took turns to line up. Everyone took a swig.

This is the last toast.

I wish all the way to the boat with the wind and no waves.

It is said that when the Cao Gang was in vogue, whoever dared not drink this wine would throw you into the river to feed the fish.

Now, of course, it's just a blessing.

They are all people who live in the water, so naturally they don't touch the mold.

Since I've had two drinks, I'll have to drink the last one even if I'm drunk and I'm unconscious!

After this drink, everyone laughs and cheers!

After passing these three levels, they also regard me as their own person, no more.

But these three drinks also make me toss. It's really hot!

Fortunately, after that, depending on the amount of alcohol you drink, no one will force you to drink.

I sat down in front of the old man and asked them where they came from?

The rule of Cao Gang is that they can only ask where they come from, not where they go.

Because in the early days, there were many bandits. Once you know your destination, you will kill the property on the way, and where you came from is not so important. On the contrary, they can ask each other about past accidents.

The old man took a drink and sighed: "we come from the North River. We have been walking on and off. The river is not peaceful. We haven't done business for a long time..."

He said that the North River refers to the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal, and the canal Gang also started on the canal. Even many times, the canal transport single refers to the area around the Beijing Hangzhou canal.

Cao Gang has no business to do, which is very understandable.

Nowadays, social science and technology are more and more developed. Let alone railways and airlines, they are much faster than boats. Even the same water transportation, which is also a steamboat and yacht. What business does the most primitive people do with wooden boats? I'm afraid these people are not only the only Cao Gang left in the present age, but also the last group.

But it's hard to understand if the river is not peaceful. Now the social security is much better than before. How many times are there any water bandits? Where do we start from.

The old man took a sip of wine and shook his head gently: "someone robbed the water. The water is bad. If the bad water is not removed, the river will not go!"

"You mean there's a way out of the ghost?" I asked.

Human robbery refers to the exploitation of water bandits and officers, while water evil refers to the dangerous or unclean things. Commonly known as water ghost, or water demon.

If you are an ordinary water guest, no matter which one you meet, it's not good.

But Cao Gang has passed on for a hundred years. No matter in the Jianghu or in the official circles, no one will deliberately create difficulties. Moreover, they have extraordinary skills, and ordinary robbers dare not move the boats of Cao Gang. There is nothing terrible for them to rob people.

They often walk on the Beijing Hangzhou river. They know where the waves are in a hurry and where the beach is dangerous. This is nothing to worry about for them.

When the Cao Gang set sail, they would take some exorcisms with them. Once they heard that someone died in a certain section of the river, they would also offer sacrifices for the first time.

So the general water ghost and water demon are not difficult to transport by water.

What they are most afraid of is to meet a ghost.

Li, in the five elements, refers to fire.

But what Cao Gang said about leaving the ghost is not the fire ghost, but the meaning that the ghost can't stand and doesn't eat hard or soft.

This is also the most worrying thing of Cao Gang!

The old man's eyes brightened as soon as he heard that I said the word "away from the ghost". He looked at me again, arched his hands and said, "I dare to ask you, young man, but the master of rice?"

When offering sacrifices to the water devil, we should invite a Taoist to sprinkle glutinous rice on both sides of the ship's side and recite the Requiem charm at the same time. Therefore, they all called the man who presided over the ghost of the Sammi sacrifice the master. After all, the name "Li Gui" is the secret language between the rice masters. Even ordinary disciples of Cao Gang have never heard of it. I am not a disciple of Cao Gang, but also can say the word "Li Gui". Naturally, the old man regarded me as the master of rice."I'm only half a clay pot, but I'd like to go and get rid of the ghost." I said, bending my hand.

"It's a life teacher! What a faux pas! " The old man immediately stood up and knelt down at me.

Earth pot and life teacher are all slang of Cao Gang.

Earthen pot refers to the mage who does not walk in the waterway. Half earthen pot is naturally modest.

Master MI is a teacher who can save people's lives. At that time, when the Cao Gang was rising, there could only be one celestial master for each sect, which was not called casually. Therefore, no matter how powerful the power was, other people could only call the life master.

All the people around, hearing that the old man kowtowed to me and called him life teacher, were all stunned and even forgot to drink.

"What are you still doing? I haven't come to see the life master! " The old man said.

They hurriedly stood up and wiped their hands on their chests to show respect and salute: "I have seen the life master!"

Boating on the road, the most afraid to encounter dirty things, so they always have a special respect for people who know magic.

I also hurriedly stood up to salute.

We each other in this set of modern people look very strange hand salute, so that other tourists on the pier are looking at, that look almost like a group of neuropathy.

But I've been used to it!

Since stepping into the business of Yin merchants, such eyes are not uncommon.

Don't believe it. No matter where you are, tell an ordinary person that you are a Yin merchant and see how others see you?

But these Cao Gang men still maintain such ancient etiquette and habits until now. I'm afraid that they have received all kinds of strange eyes. It's no wonder that they have seen strange things for a long time.

After we saluted each other, we lost our seats completely regardless of what the tourists thought.

Now that I have received the ceremony, according to the rules, I have to report myself to my family. Then I use the three words of Zhang Jiulin, which seems a bit out of the ordinary.

Although the people of Cao Gang respect the life master very much, they have always been on guard!

In ancient times, many people pretended to be life masters. After they boarded the boat of Cao Gang, they went all the way by boat. They didn't need to eat and drink for nothing. They needed money and food when they left. After all, there are not many Aquarians. As long as they don't touch dirty things, they won't show up.

The people of Cao Gang can't afford to offend, but they don't want to suffer from this dark loss.

Since then, a rule has been formed.

Order the master to get on the boat and report to his family!

This is not only a way for Cao Gang to guard against, but also a way to protect the reputation of the real life master, which immediately got the approval of the real life master.

For example, just now, those who speak in a dark way, that is, the life master and the Cao Gang can understand. Other charlatans who know five elements and gossip can no longer muddle through.
