Before transmigrating, Su Mu guarded the reservoir, holding five insurances and one housing fund, fishing every day, and living a life of lying down, but during a wild fishing trip, he touched a hi...
Chapter 280: The underworld, the reincarnation bridge, and practicing reincarnation!
"Senior, come up."
The skinny old man jumped onto a black wooden boat docked on the river bank.
The ship is three meters long and is pitch black with a faint purple hue. If you look closely, you can see that the hull is inlaid with black crystals. It looks very luxurious, yet restrained and low-key.
After Su Mu jumped onto the boat, he touched the black wood of the boat and asked, "Your boat is quite impressive."
Hearing this, the skinny old man smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Excuse me, senior. I just use it as a means of transportation on weekdays."
"What is this black wood made of?" Su Mu discovered that the black wood used to make the hull was very extraordinary. Although it was not as good as his own golden nanmu, its grade was not low either. It should be a very rare wood.
"This wood is just an ordinary one, called 'Yincao Wood', it's just so-so."
"This boat is our common property. When we go out to do business, we usually use this kind of boat."
The skinny old man explained.
Hearing this, Su Mu also understood.
It turns out that this old man comes from a fairly powerful force. To put it simply, this black wooden boat is a "public bus", which is the company's public bus.
Since this kind of material can be used to build a ship, it seems that the scale of the ship must be quite large.
"Lead the way then." Su Mu said slowly.
"Senior, sit tight!"
After he finished speaking, the skinny old man patted the black wooden boat, and the next second, the black wooden boat automatically sailed in a certain direction.
Moreover, the speed is not slow and it is fully automatic.
Su Mu's spiritual sense began to look around the wooden boat and discovered that the power system of the wooden boat relied on the rotation of two spirals at the bottom of the boat to propel it forward.
This is normal, most power boats are in this mode.
However, what puzzled Su Mu was that this ship did not have any inlaid micro-array formations, nor any other energy input. So how did this propeller work?
Su Mu asked out of curiosity.
Hearing this, the skinny old man came to the back of the deck and opened a wooden cover on the deck.
After opening the lid, there was a space underneath, similar to a power compartment, with about a hundred strange-looking creatures staring at the wheels, forcing the propeller to rise up.
These creatures are very small, with the largest one being less than 50 centimeters long. Their shapes are also very strange. Some look like dogs, but have the heads of pigs, and some have the bodies of pigs, but the heads of monkeys.
But the only thing in common is that there is no trace of life in these creatures, as if they were dead. This is why Su Mu did not notice at first that there were a hundred strange creatures under the boat.
"Senior, as you can see, these are the driving forces."
The skinny old man smiled, and his dark teeth reflected a little light.
"Are these all your spiritual pets?" Su Mu asked.
"They can't really be considered spiritual pets. To be precise, they are working to pay off debts." The skinny old man replied with a smile.
After listening, Su Mu finally understood.
I didn't ask any further questions. This might be the legendary "oxen and horses" who work hard. I can't believe that this old man is actually a contractor?
There is so much free labor at hand.
He thought that the power source of this ship might be an advanced micro-array, or an exquisite mechanical power, but he did not expect that it was the most traditional manpower!
"I'm sorry to embarrass you, senior." The skinny old man said as he closed the wooden board on the deck.
While on the way, Su Mu also asked the other party's name.
He said he was the tenth child in the family, and asked Su Mu to just call him "Tenth Child".
"It seems that you are a family force?" Su Mu asked curiously.
Hearing this, Lao Shi gave a bitter smile and replied, "Well, not really. The situation at home is complicated. There has been too much chaos outside these years, and the family is also a mess. All kinds of troubles have piled up at the same time."
"Fortunately, you are in charge, otherwise it would have been a mess."
After saying this, Su Mu was also confused. No, what does this have to do with me? ?
"I'm just an ordinary river keeper. How can I affect the struggle of your family?"
The old man also smiled slightly: "Senior is the strongest and most humble person I have ever met."
"Our power depends on this river, Senior. Senior, you have managed the order, which is of course a great help to us."
Su Mu was also stunned when he heard this sudden compliment. It seems that there is a saying that also applies to this fantasy world: "Live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the river, eat by the river."
But it must be said that this river is indeed very large and long. Su Mu has been guarding this river for almost five years and has never seen the end of it.
"How far is it?" Su Mu asked.
"It's probably still two or three days' journey, and this is already the fastest speed," the old man replied.
Hearing this, Su Mu was speechless.
Two or three days.
What a waste of time.
"You show me the way, I'll start speeding up."
After saying this, the skinny old man was stunned, a little confused.
The next second, Su Mu waved his hand and used his water control ability to directly change the direction of the water flow and start flowing in the opposite direction.
Because their original direction was to go against the current, towards the upstream river, but now, they have turned to go with the current, and with the push of the water flow, their speed has directly increased to a higher level!
Not only that, Su Mu still thought it was too slow, so he not only changed the direction of the water flow, but even increased the flow rate ten times!
Seeing this scene, the skinny old man was also frightened.
With a wave of his hand, the water in the long river of time began to retreat. That was not the end yet, the retreat even accelerated!
The skinny old man was afraid that something bad might happen, so he quickly tried to persuade him, "Senior, senior!"
"You can't do that! You can't do that!"
In order to speed up his journey, he directly made time go backwards. This incredible feat could only be accomplished by this man!
If the long river of time moves backwards, it means that the time of all the worlds included in this journey will all begin to move backwards!
What a huge cause and effect this will cause!
"What's wrong?"
Su Mu was shocked to see the old man, with a look of confusion on his face.
"Senior, is it really okay for you to do this?" The skinny old man asked tentatively, "Will it really not cause any trouble?"
"What's the matter?"
“I do this all the time.”
Su Mu spread his hands.
"You seem very scared?" Su Mu frowned.
After seeing this look, the skinny old man waved his hand and said, "No, no, senior, you should be sensible when doing things. I was a little too nosy."
The skinny old man kept silent and began to give directions obediently.
If you say you are not afraid, that would definitely be a lie.
My senior can definitely take responsibility for this cause and effect, but I am not sure about that!
As the saying goes, a snowflake that falls from a giant becomes a heavy Mount Tai on a small man.
In front of this senior, the senior is a giant, and he himself is a villain!
