Chapter 62: A River Flowing in Reverse

After listening to the black-fur hidden ghost translating for the other two hidden ghosts, Yun Qin nodded and decided to follow the two green-fur hidden ghosts so she can send the black-fur hidden ghost back with them and ask about everything that happened in the cave.

Fortunately, hidden ghosts lived in groups. They had gentle temperaments and were not aggressive. Their abilities were predominantly for hiding and evading. Their intelligence was generally high, so they were the best way for Yun Qin to find the truth.

After waking up the greedy ghost, Yun Qin and the other ghosts were ready to set off on their journey.

From the beginning, the attractive smell that the black-fur hidden ghost smelled was not from its kind but the blue bead.

That was why Yun Qin and the others came into this strange cave by accident. The layout of the cave also complimented the terrain of Black Bear Ridge.

Just as Yun Qin was about to take off her clothes and swim back, she saw the two little hidden ghosts stop her.

The black furball translated, “Later, there’s a boat.”

Yun Qin did not understand but still waited patiently for a bit.

After a while, she heard a loud sound coming from under the water as if some mechanism was activated. After a moment, everything returned to silence.

Yun Qin was worried that another mechanism in the coffin was activated, so she turned back to look.

Just as the greedy ghost recovered its strength, it pulled Yun Qin’s sleeve and pointed at the underground river, shouting loudly.

The underground river, which originally flowed towards the pool in this cave, suddenly changed its direction and slowly flowed towards the path that Yun Qin came down on.

This river could flow in reverse?

Yun Qin was so shocked at this abnormal scene that she could not speak. However, the two little hidden ghosts were calm, as if they were very familiar with this place.

Then, Yun Qin saw hundreds of wooden boats that were docked in the pool floating back upstream in an orderly manner. Each boat still had a skeleton on it and acted as if someone was controlling them.

Seeing the boats arriving, the two little hidden ghosts immediately jumped onto the lead boat. The black furball also jumped onto the same boat. Then, they motioned for Yun Qin to jump onto the boat behind.

“Ah? Won’t the boat sink?”

Yun Qin looked at these fragile and swaying wooden boats and did not know what to do.

“In the past, there were many people.”

The black furball meant that many people sat on these boats before and boats never sank.

Yun Qin looked at the human bones in the middle of the boat and gulped. Seeing that the boat was about to drift away, she quickly tried to stand on it.

However, when Yun Qin stood on it, she accidentally crushed the bones in the middle of the boat.

Yun Qin was shocked. The boat immediately swayed a few times but did not sink. However, since Yun Qin’s center of gravity was unstable, so she had to sit down to maintain her balance.

When she sat down, she saw that she crushed the entire skeleton. Yun Qin was so frightened that she apologized repeatedly, “I didn’t pay attention. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.”

When the wooden boat fleet arrived on the other end of the bank, Yun Qin watched the wooden boat fleet quietly drift away and felt a little upset.

What happened in this place?

How many ghosts disappeared here and how many innocent lives died here.

When they walked to the narrow cave entrance, it was already dawn outside.

Seeing light outside, the two green-fur hidden ghosts became dejected.

This meant they missed the time to return, so they have to stay in this cave for another night.

Unexpectedly, Yun Qin called out, “Come in, you two.”

She placed a small incense box in front of them.

Watching the black furball disintegrate into a wisp of soul and enter the incense box, the two green-fur hidden ghosts were dumbfounded.

They were still young and did not have to travel. They only explored the area around them. So, in their consciousness, they did not know that they were “ghosts” and did not know that hidden ghosts had a physical state and a soul state.

Seeing that the two green-fur hidden ghosts did not move, the black furball came out of the box and jumped a few times anxiously.

Then it translated somewhat helplessly, “Don’t know how.”

Hidden ghosts born naturally relied on their clansmen to teach them skills. These two were still young and loved to play, so they only learned how to protect themselves.

Yun Qin rubbed her temples. If that was the case, she could not bring the two little ones away.

But soon, she looked at the greedy ghosts and thought of another way.

“I can cast a spell to bring you back. It might be a little uncomfortable, but I will return you back to normal once we get there.”

Yun Qin gestured for the black furball to translate. The black furball blinked its eyes and began to communicate with the two green-fur hidden ghosts.

The few ghosts communicated silently for a while. Then, the black furball jumped, and the two green-fur hidden ghosts timidly walked in front of Yun Qin, blinking their small eyes.
