But her curiosity was soon replaced by disappointment.
When she opened her eyes again, she turned into a man!
This was her first time becoming a man, which made her feel something was wrong.
And this time, she was finally not running, but she might as well be running!
Because now her hands and feet are all tied up.
She tried her best but couldn't break free.
And her head was oozing blood, and there were blood streaks along her mouth. It was obvious that she had been injured not long ago.
She was also experiencing severe pain in several places on her body.
The fishy smell hit her nose, and she carefully looked at her surroundings... At this time, she was on a small fishing boat, and the boat was floating on the sea with no shore in sight.
There were three men on the boat, sitting around her. They all looked like fishermen. And they should be from ancient times.
And on this small fishing boat, there is also a boatload of sea fish and... pearls!
The three people in front of him were staring at him with evil intentions in their eyes.
She had a gut feeling that something was wrong. What? It was because the spoils were being distributed unevenly, so she started to attack herself when she disagreed with her?
Sure enough, these three people also started discussing whether to kill her...
Damn, she hasn’t accepted the plot yet!
It only took the three of them less than ten seconds to reach a consensus, took out a fish-killing knife, and prepared to attack her.
"Wait!" The situation was urgent and Tao Ran stopped.
"Don't you want to get rich with me? I have a secret. Give me a few words and I will help you get rich. Please let me go first."
Tao Ran was not just talking nonsense.
Instead, I saw that the clothes of these three fishermen were all patched. Although they were barefoot, their worn-out shoes were carefully and neatly placed under the back seat, which showed how much they valued them.
Although their skin tanned by the sun concealed their yellow complexion, it could not hide their malnourished bones and condition.
In addition, they had piles of pearls under their seats, but there were only fish under Tao Ran's feet, which shows how much they value their property.
She doesn't believe that there are poor people who don't want to get rich.
"I have a way to make you rich overnight, and you will no longer have to worry about money. Use the glory and wealth you have in the rest of your life to buy my life!"
"You? Just you? Get rich? How are you better than us?"
Having said that, the guy holding the fish-killing knife still stopped. The three of them looked at each other and glanced at the pearl at their feet, then pointed their fingers solemnly: "Speak clearly!"
Tao Ran exhaled, put his acting skills into play, coughed out a mouthful of blood, and breathed out like a gossamer: "I can't run, please give me a few dozen breaths. I'll talk to you in detail..."
Her hands and feet were tied, and there was the sea around her. It was expected that she would not be able to turn the palm of her hand, so a few people were not in a hurry and gave her this chance.
In this way, Tao Ran gained time to receive the plot.
As soon as the plot started, Tao Ran coughed.
Finally understand the meaning of the plot of the series!
This time she turned out to be Wang Chunfang's father, Wang Gui, who had been missing for three months!
Speaking of Wang Gui's disappearance, he really encountered difficulties.
Tao Ran clicked his tongue secretly.
This story...
The first half is like "The Old Man and the Sea", the middle is like a fairy tale, and the second half ends with Mr. Dongguo's story...
Wang Gui went to sea that day and the weather was particularly good, so he felt relieved and walked farther away.
At that time, he felt that he was very lucky. Under the clear water, the fish seemed to be extraordinarily big. He quickly located a big fish and chased it for several hundred meters before finally spearing the fish.
It’s nearly five feet long!
He happily saw that there were so many fish in this water area, and started to lower the net while the iron was hot.
It's strange to say that there are so many fish, but the amount caught in one net is only one-third of the usual amount. The fish seem to be particularly active, not moving according to the usual rules, and very restless.
He judged that the strangeness was probably due to the presence of big fish nearby.
He locked the direction according to the direction of the fish and moved forward a little further.
Unexpectedly, the calm sea surface suddenly stirred up rough waves.
He encountered a storm, all the fish he caught ran away, and he even fell into the sea.
Fortunately, he has been out on the sea since he was able to run. He has rich experience and good skills. He was not swept away by the waves and got hooked on the fishing boat the whole time.
After struggling for more than an hour, he finally got on the boat. Looking at the blue sky and white clouds above his head and the calm sea, he almost suspected that what just happened was an illusion.
Until he saw the strange color of the sea water, it was the color of blood.
He himself wasn't injured, and the fish didn't have so much blood, right?
So he dived underwater again, following the direction of the blood flow, and rescued a... mermaid.
A female mermaid who is dying of pain.
Not the legendary mermaid with peerless appearance, but the kind whose appearance is not as good as that of ordinary people.
But Wang Gui is a good person. When he saw the mermaid being seriously injured, his first reaction was either fear or profit, but he simply wanted to save her.
The mermaid was taken aboard the fishing boat by him.
There were basic wound medicines on his boat, and he used them all on this mermaid...
But he soon discovered that he seemed to be blown far away by the storm. He did not recognize this part of the sea.
He wanted to go home, but the boat sailed for a day and a night, and the sea seemed to have no end. He had lived for decades, but he was strangely lost at sea.
The mermaid has been in a coma and has never woken up.
Another day passed and he saw a small island.
He had to go to the island to rest, make a fire to keep warm, and find enough water.
It took him another day.
The mermaid woke up for ten seconds and told him that he couldn't get out of here easily.
Wang Gui did not believe in evil, so he left the mermaid behind and took plenty of water to fight.
Three days later, he came back.
He clearly looked at the position of the sun, figured out the direction, and kept moving hard, but after walking for three days, he still saw the boundless sea, until he saw this small island again...
The mermaid was still in a coma, and Wang Gui took good care of her. A few days later, the mermaid woke up and told him that she could take him away after she recovered from her injuries.
The days flew by.
More than two months later, under Wang Gui's care, the mermaid finally recovered.
He also probably knew the story of the mermaid.
There was a fight within the mermaid clan, and the mermaid named Jiu Zhu became a victim. In order to escape, she used all her abilities to escape through the waves, and in one breath she escaped to the place left behind by her deceased parents.
At that time, Wang Gui happened to enter by mistake and was brought here, but he also saved her by mistake.
In order to repay his kindness, Jiuzhu cried loudly every day during the treatment, and the mermaid's tears turned into pearls. After dozens of days, he saved half a boatload of pearls for him.
Now that the two were about to say goodbye, Jiu Zhu felt that this was not enough, so he gave Wang Gui his own orb, a gold-pink pearl the size of a fist.
Wang Gui looked straight at it at that time. He was a seafood seller, how could he not know the price of pearls?
Merchants often come to collect these things. A light purple bead the size of a quail egg that Afu of Dongshan Village once obtained from the deep sea was taken away for a hundred taels of silver, making him the richest man in Dongshan Village.
The one in front of me now is so round, the skin is so smooth, and it is so much bigger than Ah Fu's one. How can it be sold for five hundred taels? Thousands of taels?
Then he can live a good life with his mother and daughter, and no longer have to risk going to sea. If his daughter can marry a good family, he can also marry a wife...
