Chapter 272 Is it fair?(2/2)

The boatman shook his head repeatedly: "Then you can find someone else to go to. My boat will not go to the north shore."

Bai said slowly: "If you don't go to the north bank, what are you doing at this ferry?"

The boatman said: "Their boats may all go to the north shore, but my boat cannot."

Bai Sheng said slowly: "I will give you five times the silver and you will take me across the river."

The boatman shook his head: "Not to mention five times, even ten times can't take you to the north bank."

Bai Shengman's expression changed. He looked around and saw that there was almost no one around, so he began to have murderous intentions.

If there is a boat here, what does it matter if there is no boatman?

He got off the horse and walked to the riverside: "I am an official of the imperial court. I have important matters to go to the north bank. If you don't take me across the river, I will deal with you according to the rules."

The boatman sighed: "My boat really doesn't go to the north shore."

Bai Shengman quickly flashed and landed on the boat: "You don't have to go to the North Shore, but your boat must go to the North Shore."

The boatman said: "No one else can handle my boat except me, because the water is so strong, but I am the only one doing business."

Bai Sheng slowly: "Then don't blame me."

How could a strong man in the Wuyue Realm care about an ordinary person punting a boat? How could a commander of Yu Ling Guard care about a human life?

The boat was too small to accommodate the two horses. Anyway, Bai Shenghuan didn't care. It was not difficult to find horses when we arrived in the north of the Yangtze River.

He pushed outward with the force of his palms, and the boat left the shore and sailed straight forward through the waves.

The boatman sighed.

He stopped talking, didn't speak in vain, just stood there in a daze.

This Changshui is a big river. Where it is suitable for ferry crossings, the water flow will inevitably slow down, and places where the water flow slows down will inevitably be wider.

Approaching the middle of the river, Bai Sheng slowly looked around. The nearest ship was at least several miles away, and he immediately smiled.

"Do you know that this world is actually unfair?"

he asks.

The boatman nodded: "I know."

Bai Shengman said: "Then tell me, how is it unfair?"

The boatman said: "For example, in this constant water, many people drown every year. Some of them are men and women, some are overworked and some are young. From this point of view, it is not really unfair."

Bai Sheng smiled slowly and said, "If you say that, it's not unfair."

The boatman said: "But the locals don't think so. They think that the water god doesn't want to harm the local people, but the water god needs sacrifices."

"So, they thought, as long as they bring sacrifices to the water god every year, it doesn't matter where he is from, as long as he is not a local."

He looked at Bai Shengman: "So on certain days every year, there are fewer boats on the river."

Bai Sheng frowned slowly, he already roughly understood what the boatman meant.

The boatman asked him: "Some lone travelers from other places were sacrificed, and they died in confusion. Is this fair to them?"

Bai Sheng smiled slowly: "You mean, I am a sacrifice?"

The boatman said: "I told you, in this section, my boat is the only one doing different business. I am the only one not going to the north shore, so you have to get on the boat."

Bai Sheng smiled slowly again: "You just said that it is just a sacrifice anyway, anyone from anywhere can do it, anyone can do it."

The boatman nodded: "Yes."

Bai said slowly: "Can you do it?"

The boatman also laughed: "Guess."

Two breaths later, a white light shone on the boat, and on the river, a line of horses broke through the water and went straight.

One sword cut through ten feet of water.

After two more breaths, the two pieces of white sound were slowly thrown into the river.
