    There was an official named Yang on the west bank of the Dalu River. He had a stupid son who slipped and fell into the Dalu River and drowned.  The current of the Dalu River is so fast that people who fish for corpses are discouraged. Nearly two hundred miles downstream, there is an open place called Ghost Beach. The current is gentle. People who fish for corpses often go there to intercept people who have fallen into the water upstream.  After you catch it, ask the corpse collector to take it home with you.

    Chen Lu had always had a question, and he just asked for advice at this time: "My father-in-law, let me interrupt. There is one thing that I have never understood. Since the person has passed away, the body can be pulled by a cart, carried by a horse, or carried by people. It can be done by any means.  Why do we have to use corpse chasers to bring it back?"

    Tian Weng said: "It's different. Mr. Chen doesn't know something. Only the body returned is the combination of spirit and flesh. Otherwise, the soul cannot return to his hometown and say goodbye to his family, and he becomes a lonely ghost."

    "No wonder they have to pay a lot of money to drive the corpse back to their hometown. I understand, father-in-law, please continue."

    The Yang family is very powerful in the Shuixi area. They found the person who retrieved the corpse, and the person who retrieved the corpse found Tian Weng and paid a lot of money to rush back.

    Tian Weng said: "Master Chen may not believe what happens next. It is evil and weird and cannot be heard by adults."

    Chen Lu said: "My father-in-law, I have traveled thousands of miles from the capital to get here, and I have experienced some of these things."

    Tian Weng continued: This section of the river is called Ghost Beach.  Tian Weng also knew that corpses from more than a thousand miles away from the Dalu River had to be salvaged here. He also knew that this was a good place to collect corpses and also to attract business here.

    "At that time, the corpse fishermen fished out the body of Yang Fool, and Tian Weng contacted several more people, six in total.  He brought these corpses back, but before he could go five miles away, a group of people, or more specifically, some corpses blocked the way. A tall red-haired corpse driver said to Tian Weng:  "We have prepared a car for you in front of us. You are just like other corpse drivers. We will not delay your business, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

    He woke up with excitement, it seemed real but not real, it seemed like a dream but not a dream.  After taking a look, he saw that there was really a carriage next to him. He was so frightened that he really wanted to run away.

    He stopped the corpses and calmed down. He was already over seventy years old at that time, and many people had threatened him in his life. He would be responsible for the consequences. Just be conceited. It was nothing special.  His family in Sizhou had no land or tea gardens. They farmed on rent and could not even afford the rent.  He thought that his family was waiting for food, waiting for his money to buy rice for cooking.

    He didn¡¯t want to lie, and besides, he didn¡¯t dare to lie to Yuan Yuan, so he simply ignored it, rang the bell and shouted slogans and continued to lead the body forward.  Before he had gone half a mile, a flood came out of nowhere and washed him and the corpses into the Dalu River.

    While walking to Ghost Beach, he heard the voice of the red-haired corpse exorcist: "If you don't listen, your charms, antidotes, and soul summoning bags will be confiscated by the Narcissus King. From now on, you are not allowed to do this business again."  , if you persist in your persistence, your life will be worse than death."

    After saying that, they rushed Tian Weng to the river bank again. He returned home and did not dare to go to Yuan Yuan's house to discuss countermeasures with his servant.  Unexpectedly, that night, the servant secretly went to Yang's house and reported the truth of the matter, saying that he had done everything by himself and that he would accept the punishment.

    ??Yang Yuanwai was furious and ordered him to be beaten. In his final rage, he cut out his tongue and ordered that he was not allowed to do this business again in the future.  Tian Weng found out later that it was his servant who stepped on him and he escaped.

    Tian Weng himself knew that he had offended both parties, lost his servants, was disheartened, and officially quit the business.

    After hearing this, Chen Lu didn¡¯t quite understand, so he asked: ¡°My father-in-law, I have something to puzzle over. Why aren¡¯t they allowed to drive away corpses when they go to Ghost Beach?¡±

    Tian Weng said: "I couldn't understand it at first, but then I thought about it carefully. It's okay to be a fake corpse chaser, but not really. I understand, it should be the Narcissus King who doesn't want the soul to leave the water realm."

    Tian Weng saw Chen Lu nodding his head repeatedly, and did not show any surprise or fear. His expression was almost as usual, and he understood that Chen Lu was very knowledgeable and was already used to it.

    Chen Lu said: "So, even the water ghosts within a thousand miles radius can't return to their hometown, so they should be reborn as soon as possible."

    Tian Weng said: "That's exactly it."

    Chen Lu thought, someone is controlling the river world.  There is no legendary Dragon King in the river. This has been confirmed by Chen Lu. It is possible that monsters are causing trouble.  The purpose of his coming here is to get the antidote, and the antidote for my father-in-law is to go to Ghost Beach.  Go to Ghost Beach and go down the river to get the antidote. It would be better if you can find it back. If you can't find it, let Tian Weng get another one. This is a man with real ability, Chen Lu's intuition told him.

    Chen Lu said to Tian Weng: "Old man, I'm going to go to the ghost beach."

    ? ?The old man was taken aback. Seeing Chen Lu's firm expression, he immediately said, "Little old man, go with the adults."

    Chen Lu saw that his expression was sincere and couldn't bear to refuse. He didn't want the world to know too many of his secrets, so he said, "My father-in-law just tells me how far it is from here to go to Ghost Beach and how to take the shortest road."

    Tian Weng said: "Mr. Chen, you said that you need the antidote from the little old man. You can't tell which one is mine. I am willing to accompany Mr. Chen. The little old man will live to be eighty years old this year, and he will do his best for our great heaven."  Do something and you will die without regrets.¡±

    This is the feeling of family and country. Chen Lu sighed in his heart, why is he not like this?  Although Tian Weng is over eighty years old, his life is still an unknown, and he is calculating his days every day, so he should be fearless.

    It¡¯s funny when Chen Lu thinks about it. He has put himself on the same level as an old man. This can be regarded as a kind of sympathy.  He stopped being verbose and said, "My husband, get ready. We will set off at noon."

    The servant Mute prepared some food, and the two of them ate and set off.  The two left the foot of the mountain and walked onto the official road. Chen Lu asked Tian Weng to mount the horse. After muttering a few words with the dog, Chen Lu also got on the horse. The big green horse soared into the air.

    Just as Tian Weng was about to scream, he was so frightened that he fainted and did not wake up until he stopped.  He looked at Chen Lu with awe and said, "This is it."

    Chen Lu took a look, and they came to a river valley. They stood on a path beside the river valley, with endless mountains on both sides, and there was already a light green on the mountains.  The river widens here, and the water of the Dalu River slows down here, but it is still bottomless, and the east and west banks are more than two hundred feet wide.

    The blue and green water reflects the blue sky and white clouds, and the light green peaks on both sides.  There are cliffs on the other side, only this side of the river.  There were many people on this shore. Tian Weng said that some were family members of the deceased, some were collecting corpses, and some were driving away corpses.

    Chen Lu pulled Tian Weng down the embankment and said, "Old man, you can shout."

    Tian Weng hesitated for a moment and shouted: "Give me my things and give me my whip." After shouting three times, the people on the shore were dumbfounded. Some people knew Tian Weng and thought that the old man had gone crazy after not seeing him for several years.

    But all they heard were waves of echoes.  Chen Lu motioned him to walk towards the river.  Tian Weng tried it and then shrank back.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
