After returning to the fishing boat safely, Wu Xie said worriedly,""Are you guys alright? What happened to Ah Ning?"
"We're fine. She seemed to be possessed, so I had to knock her unconscious.”Chen Hao said.
At this moment, the captain walked over. He called the crew to leave this godforsaken place while checking on Ah Ning's injuries.
She lifted up Ah Ning's hair and saw that the human-faced cockroach was curled up in her hair. The huge suction cups on its face were firmly sucking the back of her head.
When the captain saw this, his expression became solemn. He then walked to the cabin and took out a bag of something that looked like cow hair and scattered it on the human-faced cockroaches.
The little face immediately let out a shrill scream. It sounded like a baby crying!
Then, the captain quickly took out a knife and quickly stabbed it into the gap between the tumor and the scalp. He picked up the human-faced cockroach and threw it into the furnace at the side.
As soon as the thing was thrown into the furnace, it immediately burned. Not long after, it turned into a pile of charcoal, emitting a pungent smell.
"What is this?" Wu Xie asked with a face full of lingering fear.”
The captain was obviously very dissatisfied with this business. He explained impatiently,"This is a human-faced cockroach. Legend has it that it's something transformed from a wraith.”
After this matter was settled, the captain called the crew to start the ship and continue to set off for the next stop.
Everyone settled Ah Ning down and treated her wounds before returning to their rooms to rest.
More than ten hours later, they arrived at Yongxing Island, near a white beach, because they had to go ashore to pick up a few people.
At this moment, Chen Hao, Baldy Zhang, and Wu Xie were sitting at the dining table, drinking tea and chatting.
Ah Ning walked out of the cabin. After a few hours of recovery, her complexion had improved a lot. However, a large piece of gauze wrapped around her head made her look a little haggard.
Looking at her sickly appearance, Chen Hao felt that Ah Ning looked different at this moment.。。
Wu Xie quickly poured him a cup of hot tea and asked,""Miss Ning, are you okay? Who are we picking up?"
Ning shook his head and pointed to the beach not far away. There were a few people carrying travel bags and said,"It's them. A few divers and a technical consultant like you. I'm sure you know him.”
When Chen Hao heard the term " technical consultant," he immediately thought of Fatty. Fatty was the technical consultant they had met at the King Lu's Palace previously. He gave Chen Hao the impression that he was too unreliable.
"Could it be this damn fatty again this time?”Chen Hao muttered to himself.
Soon, the ship approached the shore. Everyone got off the ship and saw the few people carrying travel bags. One of them was a fatty who looked very familiar. It was indeed Fatty Wang!
When Chen Hao saw that the so-called technical consultant was indeed this fatty, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. He secretly sighed that this was fate.
Fatty Wang also saw them. As he ran towards them, he scolded,"I say, little comrade, macho man, do you guys have any fucking sense of time? I've been enjoying the sea breeze here for more than an hour!”
Then he looked at Ah Ning and said,""I say, Miss Ning, you're really influential. You even invited Heavenly Official Qiu over. It's definitely not because of the price. Did you seduce him?”
"Get lost! Damn fatty, why is your mind so dirty?”Chen Hao kicked Fatty's butt and scolded him.
Hearing Fatty's teasing, Ah Ning's pretty face didn't change at all. It was obvious that her mental fortitude was still very strong.
When Wu Xie saw that he was going to join hands with Fatty again, he could not help but feel a headache. The reason was that this damned Fatty gave him a feeling that he was too unreliable. They had just met and he was already talking about this and that.
Everyone quickly returned to the ship. Fatty threw his luggage on the deck and said,"I say, Miss Ning, you guys are rushing me too much. I almost fainted from the chase. Have you found Third Master and the others?"
"I didn't find him." Ning shook his head. The next stop is the last point. I think it should be there…"
"Then let me say this first. I don't know anything about Xunlong Dianxue or locating by sound." Don't blame me if you can't find the place. I'll still take the money. According to the rules of the martial world, you southern barbarians have to do as the others do.”
Ah Ning sighed and said,""I know you won't. I've already made arrangements. Mr. Chen will be in charge of the search and rescue operation this time!”
After saying that, Ah Ning looked at Chen Hao meaningfully, waiting for his answer.
This time, she had only asked Wu Xie to come over to help. She hadn't expected that even an expert like Chen Hao would come along. This was truly beyond her expectations.
He had originally planned to let Fatty take charge of the search and rescue operation. Now that there was a better candidate, Chen Hao was naturally in charge. Ah Ning knew Chen Hao's ability very well.
When Chen Hao heard her words, he was stunned for a moment. How did she become the person-in-charge for no apparent reason?
It wasn't that he couldn't do it, but how could he do something that didn't have any benefits for nothing? He wasn't someone who was overflowing with love!
Thinking of this, Chen Hao said," Miss Ah Ning, I can be in charge of this search and rescue operation, but my price is three times higher than theirs!"”
His tone was very firm and there was no room for negotiation. It was as if he would quit immediately if he was short of a penny.
Hearing his words, Ah Ning smiled bitterly and said,""No problem!"
"Ha, being handsome is an advantage. No wonder the most popular people in the entertainment industry are all pretty boys.”Fatty said indignantly.
The fishing boat continued to set off. Everyone sat together and took out a map to check the route.
Although this was an underwater tomb, it was very different from the ancient tombs on land. It was indeed difficult to find the true location of the ancient tomb with ordinary means.
However, all of this was a piece of cake for Chen Hao because he had mastered the Hair Hill Secret Technique.
The surface of the sea was different from the ground. He could not use the Dragon Seeking Art through the terrain, but he could compare it with the sun, moon, and stars in the sky, as well as determine the location by listening to the sound. There were many methods to lock onto the exact location of the ancient tomb.
"How is it, Mr. Chen? Are you confident in finding the location of the underwater tomb?”Ah Ning asked Chen Hao.
Chen Hao nodded confidently. Seeing his expression, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"That's good!" Fatty said casually. It's not easy for us to come to Xisha. Shouldn't we try the local specialties? Rest up and work in the tomb!"
After saying that, Fatty found the captain and asked him if there was any seafood on the boat to cook for him.
This was a fishing boat to begin with, so there was naturally no lack of seafood such as groupers, lobsters, mackerels, and so on.
Under the captain's murderous gaze, Fatty grabbed a big mackerel that weighed four to five pounds from the water tank and ordered a fish head hotpot from the waiter. He threw down a few hundred yuan bills and brought it to the dining table to cook.
