Chapter 269

Tan Yi shook his head.

Although Lisa said that it may be because of some kind of resentment or evil spirit permeating it, causing the river to appear black.But Tan Yi thinks it's better to pretend that he doesn't know anything now.

The boatman chuckled: "Then do you know why this river is named Wangchuan?"

The corner of Tan Yi's mouth twitched, and he secretly grabbed Lisa's sleeve.

Lisa was about to speak when she felt Tan Yi's tugging, her heart moved, and she immediately shut up.

Tan Yi coughed lightly, followed the boatman's direction with his eyes, but also did not answer.

The boatman's question was based on his knowledge that Tan Yi and Lisa already knew the name of the river.

Tan Yi didn't know whether he should admit that the two of them had been pointed out by the old man before, knew Jiang's name, and they were here to wait for him.

Or, the boatman was here to pick them up.

But judging from what the boatman said earlier, it didn't seem like he had accepted any orders or commissions, but more like meeting them by coincidence.

Therefore, Tan Yi should not answer the boatman's question.

After all, he still remembered the old man's last words, suggesting to them that there was still danger here.

In any case, the old man's last words should be believed.Even if the old man doesn't say anything, Tan Yi and Lisa, who have already experienced many battles, will not let down their vigilance.

The boatman didn't seem to expect much from the two of them, and said to himself: "This river is called Wangchuan. It is because it can make people forget all worries, troubles, desires, pains, fears...forget all negative things. emotions and memory.

"People sink their misfortunes into the River of Forgetfulness, and all their negative emotions and bad memories blend into the river, making the river look as black as ink."

Tan Yi's eyes gradually narrowed: "You said 'people'... which 'people'?"

The boatman snorted again: "Which other 'people'? It's you!"

"Us?" Tan Yi was a little confused.

The boatman said, "Yes, it's you, you from the Rift World."

"Oh... I seem to vaguely understand..." Tan Yi said tentatively, "You mean, the negative emotions and memories here all come from the world outside the Bloody Tower?"

The boatman sat down on the boat, spoke in the same tone as the gently rippling boat, and slowly started: "That's right. The cracked world, so many dangers, so many struggles, so many deaths, and so many violations." The punishment of human nature. With so many unreasonable things, have you ever seen that the people there have resisted?"

"Isn't it because the three bosses and the rift master Sha Wuzun are too powerful, so no one dares to resist?" Tan Yi blurted out.

The boatman shook his head again and again: "It is true that people dormant because of fear, but they can also explode because of fear.

"The peace of the Rift World is actually due to the existence of the River of Forgetfulness. All negative emotions and bad memories flow away with the water of the River of Forgetfulness.

"So, the people in the rift are only living in an artificially created illusion. In their lives, there is no unbearable pain, no unspeakable sorrow, and no past that is ashamed to talk about.

"They may have some small thoughts, small troubles, but those are not enough to reveal the truth to them.

"They can go back and forth for a small task and get paid just for lunch.

"They can accept their own poverty and their neighbor's abundance and be indifferent, even taken for granted.

"They accepted the penalty of being sent to battle for breaking one of Pieta's vases, and did not consider it too severe.

"They are mercenary, they are content with the status quo, they are unrestrained, and they are not afraid of life and death-most of them have never thought that there is anything wrong!"

The boatman talked excitedly, while Tan Yi and Lisa listened in a daze.

Finally, when the boatman stopped talking, the two of them looked at each other, feeling that the boatman was not so much explaining about Wangchuan to the two of them as venting their grievances.

Tan Yi had already guessed that this boatman was probably trapped here like the old man before, and after many years, he became a part of the seventh-floor world of the bloody tower.

However, he is not interested in the past of the boatman, nor even in the order of the Rift World under Sha Wuzun's rule.

His purpose is only to find the eternal life.

In order to prevent the boatman from continuing to drag the topic away, Tan Yi resolutely took advantage of the gap between the other party's silence and interjected: "Well, the purpose of our visit this time is to find the legendary 'eternal person'. I have heard that, Those people are on the opposite side of the river, but I'm not sure if the news is true or not. I think, you might know something."

The boatman didn't feel any displeasure because Tan Yi interrupted his speech, and quickly replied: "Eternal people? Of course I know. But what do you want them for?"

Tan Yi's eyes suddenly glowed brightly, and he could hardly restrain his excitement. He took several deep breaths before suppressing it.Even so, the voice was still a little trembling: "Then... do you know where they are?"

"City of Ashes." The boatman blurted out.

City of Ashes... Isn't this the place where the old man told the two to go?

"The City of Ashes... what kind of place is it? How far is it from here?" Tan Yi asked.

The boatman pointed to the river in the sky and said, "It takes half a day to go down the river. You can only take a boat, otherwise you will never get there."

Tan Yi was a little skeptical about the boatman's claim that he would never arrive if he didn't take a boat.

Normally, this statement is pure bullshit.

But here, in this weird world on the seventh floor of the Bloody Tower, Tan Yi felt that some things that were unreasonable outside might not be possible here.

"Sit?" Lisa asked Tan Yi for advice.

"Sit!" Tan Yi gave an affirmative answer.

Both he and Lisa can swim, so if something happens in the boat, there is no need to worry too much.

Most importantly, he still has a directional teleportation scroll in his hand. As long as the boatman moves the boat aside, his and Lisa's safety will be guaranteed.

"Now that you have decided," the boatman grabbed the bamboo pole and stood up, "then get on the boat."

The boat carried the three of them, and went away slowly between the boundless world, as if in people's memory, the self who pursued dreams when he was young disappeared at the end of the gloomy and ruthless world.

"Boatman, are there many people in the City of Ashes?" Tan Yi asked.

After sailing, the boatman, who had been a bit talkative before, suddenly quieted down. I don't know if he didn't feel that he had anything to say, or because he had to work hard on the boat and didn't want to be distracted.
