Half an hour later.
The room was empty again.
Only Zhou Mu was left.
Wu Xie went back to his residence to pack his luggage and book another plane ticket.
Pan Zi went to arrange things.
The Wu family was extremely powerful.
There were hundreds of people working under him.
Among these people, a portion of them floated in the open and were in charge of the sales of the stalls.
The other group of people hid underwater and specialized in cleaning the sand.
Apart from that.
There were also countless people who ate with the Wu family.
They formed one hall after another.
Such as Wang Baqiu, small cobbler and the like.
The servants at home were easy to deal with, but the people in the hall were extremely difficult to deal with.
They were all ruthless people who had been in the martial world for many years. They killed without blinking. Each of them had at least eight to ten lives on their hands.
These people were wolves and dogs.
When Wu Sansheng was around, they were like dogs wagging their tails and begging for mercy.
However, once they found out that something had happened to Wu Sansheng, they would turn hostile and turn into ferocious wolves. They would bare their fangs and bite off pieces of flesh from the Wu family's bodies with all their might, devouring them until not even a scrap was left.
Everyone knew.
He was the number one general under Third Master.
At this moment.
Only he would personally appear, otherwise, no one would be able to suppress those people.
Zhou Mu didn't know what he would do.
However, after so many years, Pan Zi must have been able to deal with this kind of thing like a fish in water.
After all.
Wu Sansheng was just missing.
He didn't die.
If news of his death really spread…
Only then would those people truly shed all pretenses of cordiality.
At most, there would be some trouble.
If he couldn't even handle such a small matter, he wouldn't be Pan Zi.
He stood by the window sill.
Zhou Mu looked at the scenery in the courtyard calmly.
In his mind, he was recalling the situation at the shipwreck tomb.
Suddenly.
A clear notification sounded in his mind.
It pulled him back from his daze.
"Ding, quest triggered: Acquire the Meteorite Jade!”
Meteorite Jade?
Zhou Mu frowned.
He had just combed through the seabed tomb.
However, from the beginning to the end, there didn't seem to be any Meteorite Jade.
One of the few places that was involved was in the Snake Marsh Ghost Domain Tomb of the Queen Mother of the West.
"Could it be Wang Zanghai's corpse?"
He suddenly thought of a possibility.
The shipwreck tomb was actually the place where Wang Zanghai tried to live forever.
He passed away.
They were waiting for the descendants to enter.
After that, he would carry out the possession.
He copied all his memories.
From there, he could obtain immortality in another sense.
It had to be said that this person was indeed a genius. After observing King Wan Nu's appearance after he transformed into a demon, he actually found a completely different path.
Since ancient times, not many people had been able to do it.
……
In the afternoon.
It was just past 1:30.
Wu Xie and Pan Zi returned to Mountain Wu House.
The three of them casually ate something.
Then, they got on the road to the airport.
The person in charge of driving was an old buddy who had been in the Wu family for many years.
Very reliable.
At critical times, he could not afford to miss out on any information.
Wu Xie took out a map. It was a tourist map of Xisha.
Although the accuracy was a little lacking, it was enough for the three of them who had never been to Xisha.
"According to the phone call."
"Since Third Uncle is going out to sea by boat, then there are only these few places.”
Wu Xie picked up a pen and quickly drew a few circles on the map.
Those were the few docks that one had to pass through when sailing.
Then, he drew a few more lines.
Finally, looking at the intersecting red lines, there was a central point.
"Yongxing Island."
Pan Zi lowered his head to look and couldn't help but mutter.
"Little Third Master, do you mean that we have to go to Everlasting Island first?”
"That's right."
Wu Xie nodded.
"On the way here, I checked on the way. Yongxing Island is a transit station for ships to resupply midway.”
"A storm that can topple a ship can only happen in the depths of the sea.”
"So, let's go here first. We'll definitely be able to find out more about Third Uncle.”
Listening to his systematic analysis.
Pan Zi opened his mouth wide.
His eyes were filled with amazement.
Third Master dreamed of letting him take over the Wu family.
He did not expect that after going to the Warring States Tomb, Little Third Master would have such a shocking change after returning.
She had matured a lot.
Unfortunately…he couldn't see it now.
"Alright, Little Third Master, I'll listen to you."
Pan Zi nodded calmly.
Seeing this scene.
Wu Xie suddenly had a feeling.
He seemed to see the figure standing beside his third uncle.
It was not Pan Zi, who was playing with him.
Perhaps…
In his heart, she was no longer that little brat who did not know anything.
Thinking of this…
Wu Xie shook his head.
However, he didn't say anything and just kept the map.
Third Uncle's life and death were unknown.
He did not know what the outcome of this trip to the Western Sand was.
Everything was unknown.
He had complicated thoughts.
After arriving at the airport, the three of them boarded the plane smoothly.
They finally arrived at Xisha when it was dark.
However…
When they went to buy tickets to Yongxing Island, they were told that there would be a strong storm and bad weather on the sea in the next few days. All the ships on shift were ordered to return to the port, and all the shifts were cancelled.
Wu Xie did not give up.
He had to ask when the next shift was.
In the end…he received an answer.
At least ten days.
Ten days.
At that time, it would be too late.
Hearing this news.
It was no different from giving the three of them a sharp warning.
Even Zhou Mu did not expect this.
Before he took the opportunity, he felt that Wu Xie's analysis had indeed improved.
However, they did not expect that a sudden storm would trap the three of them in Western Sand.
This place was at least dozens of nautical miles away from Yongxing Island.
Even if they swam with all their might.
It was also unrealistic.
"What should we do now?"
Although Wu Xie had matured a lot, he had never encountered such a situation.
He subconsciously looked at Zhou Mu and Pan Zi.
"How about this, Little Third Master, let's find a hotel to stay in first. I'll ask someone later if there are any fishermen like that. Anyway, they're just throwing money. There must be some who dare to risk their lives and go out to sea in the storm.”
Pan Zi pondered.
He gave a suggestion.
He pondered for a moment.
Zhou Mu also felt that this was the most reliable method at present.
"Then I'll listen to you, Pan Zi."
Wu Xie had no choice.
They could only settle down temporarily.
The three of them found a hotel and put down their backpacks.
He had been worried about Wu Sansheng's safety all the way from Hangzhou to here, so his body had been tense.
He didn't feel anything when he was on the plane.
But now that he had relaxed.
He felt his stomach rumbling with hunger, and he was so hungry that he felt dizzy.
The three of them could only leave their residence and find a seafood barbecue shop on the street to eat something to fill their stomachs.
However…
Pan Zi was indeed a veteran who had followed Wu Sansheng for many years.
In the time it took for a cigarette.
He actually found out that there was really an old fisherman who dared to carry people out to sea on Paracel Island.
All these years, he had been secretly smuggling people.
He was not afraid of anything.
As long as he had money, he would dare to leave even in the worst weather, let alone a storm.
Hearing this clue.
How could they hold it in?
After eating something in a hurry, he asked the boss for the address of the person and hailed a taxi to rush over.
"If we can leave tonight, we should be able to avoid the storm.”
Wu Xie took out his phone and checked.
The news said that the storm would probably pass through Xisha tomorrow.
One night.
It should be enough.
Thinking of this, his eyes were filled with anticipation.
Although Pan Zi didn't say anything and was smoking silently, from the way his brows gradually relaxed, he should be thinking the same thing.
Half an hour later.
The three of them finally arrived at the address the shop owner had given them.
When he arrived, he took a look.
They reacted immediately.
The shack was built in a valley near the sea. The boat was placed in the water and could move at any time.
However…
When they were unable to suppress their excitement.
They entered the shed area.
Only then did he realize that there were already many people gathered at the beach.
There was a very old iron fishing boat parked by the sea. It was obvious that it had been on board for many years.
A group of people were constantly moving things onto the ship.
Seeing this scene.
Wu Xie was dumbfounded.
Pan Zi also put out his cigarette with a gloomy face.
It was obvious that someone had found the captain before them and was going to set sail overnight.
The strangest thing was…
Under the light of the shed area.
They realized that the person who was negotiating with the captain was actually a woman.
Although they were quite far away.
However, the beautiful aura on her body still hit him in the face.
The woman seemed to have sensed that someone was there.
He turned around.
The corners of his mouth suddenly curled into a smile.
He beckoned a young man over and pointed in the direction of Zhou Mu and the other two, saying something.
The young man nodded repeatedly.
After that.
He even walked straight towards them.
"Excuse me, are you Mister Wu Xie?"
"It's me."
Wu Xie was surprised.
"That's right. We've already arranged a boat. We'll set sail now!”
