And Mai Lao gradually discovered a secret. If this immortal person wants to stay young forever, he must drink blood. Otherwise, he will gradually age with age. In addition, he also
I found that once the blood of a living person is sucked, it will come faster than the blood of animals, and his power will be much stronger than before. It seems that my guess is correct, it is indeed the power of blood.
I interrupted him again, "But we have been at sea for such a long time, what do you rely on to sustain yourself?"
Mai Lao sneered, "Of course I have my own methods, and...someone also prepared good blood for me, which saves me a lot of trouble."
"How do you say this?" I didn't understand a bit.
Mai Lao suddenly looked at Jiao Ba and asked instead, "Jiao Ba, am I right?"
Jiao Ba's face suddenly turned ugly, but he was stunned and didn't say a word. I knew there must be something going on here, "Jiao Ba has something to do with this?"
"You have to ask him now, but what I can tell you is that Jiao Ba...he has always been the other man in black you are looking for." He looked at me with cold eyes, as if to tell me,
You are such an idiot, people have been playing tricks on you.
"Jiao Ba, is what Mr. Mai said the truth?" I suddenly felt an evil fire in my heart. This grandson still wants to hide it from me. When we were outside the tomb, I asked him intentionally, but he still pretended to be stupid with me.
I thought about it over and over in my mind, and it seemed that my original judgment was correct.
Jiao Ba stared at Mai Lao with cold eyes. After a few seconds, he smiled to himself, "Mai Lao is really powerful. I admit that the hermit man in black is me."
"Jiao Ba, don't think that your Taoism is very profound. Every move you make is under my control. I didn't kill you at the beginning because I thought you were still useful. Otherwise, I would just rely on you.
You want to stop me too? Haha..." Mai Lao said with a meaningful smile, obviously mocking Jiao Ba's overestimation of his abilities.
"Even if I can't beat you, I will still do this." Jiao Ba said stubbornly.
Mai Lao smiled sarcastically and did not answer, but I felt a little angry inside, "Is this what you told me?" I looked sideways at Jiao Ba and asked in the calmest tone possible, but
I know that my heart is not at peace at all.
"I will explain this matter to you, but I really don't mean any harm." Jiao Ba looked at me sincerely, then his eyes fell on Mai Lao again, and he said fiercely, "You are so cruel."
Mai Lao laughed twice, "I said, I know everything you do, including that big beard. He was also a show you deliberately arranged, right?" He looked at Jiao Ba and said suddenly
He said something that shocked us all.
At that moment, I was not the only one who was surprised. Li Xin and Jenny were also shocked. "What did you say? Did Jiao Ba arrange that big beard?" Li Xin asked with a confused look on his face.
Jiao Ba's face looked like shit, and the muscles on his face were even twitching. He didn't say a word. He didn't dare to refute at all. I know that Mr. Mai didn't tell lies, and
There is no need for him to lie anymore at this time, now is the time to make everything clear.
"Mr. Mai, I have to admire you. You can even find out this?" Jiao Ba gritted his teeth and was so angry that his whole body trembled. "Haha... I thought I did it perfectly, but I didn't expect it.
You discovered it and I really underestimated you."
"Why do you do this?" I looked at Jiao Ba and asked calmly. The anger before had disappeared. Many times, people need to be calm rather than angry.
"It's nothing, don't ask, just think I'm sorry for you." Jiao Ba's eyes were dim, like a loser.
Mai Lao smiled evilly, "Since he refused to tell me, let me tell you. He deliberately arranged such a ship robbery in order to monopolize the secret of this navigation chart. He thought he could rely on his big beard to
and his men to control everything on the ship. Unfortunately, everything was miscalculated. If I didn't escape, maybe you and Shunzi would have died long ago..."
"Shut up, there's no need to stir up trouble anymore." Jiao Ba suddenly interrupted Mai Lao, and it seemed that his teeth were itching with hatred, "Although I arranged Big Beard, I will not kill Yi Ge and Shun Zi.
, let alone hurt other people, I just wanted to control Jenny’s ship. As for you, I didn’t take you seriously at all at that time.”
Now I fully understood why Jiao Ba and I met the Big Beard and others when we first met Jenny at the bar. The Big Beard even threatened her to bring out the navigation chart, but Jenny didn’t recognize him at all.
It turned out that all this was planned by Jiao Ba early. When we went to sea later, Bearded Man could find us on the vast sea, which aroused my suspicion even more.
I knew at that time that someone must have betrayed us, but Jiao Ba performed the scene really well. At that time, we all thought that the bastard named Feiyu had betrayed us. He was also shot to death by Big Beard. We thought
This was an internal conflict between them, but now it seems that he was just a scapegoat, and Jiao Ba used his death to perfectly hide his identity.
Later, things became clearer. Big Beard and others asked us to lead a team to search for treasures in sunken ships in the Qing Dynasty. This idea was brought up by Jiao Ba. I must have arranged it intentionally, but I admire this big man very much.
Beard, the acting skills of him and Jiao Ba are perfect.
If I were to stay in the entertainment industry, I would be able to become a movie star, but there are no flaws at all. The two of them even staged a life-and-death fight. This may be the legendary bitter flesh trick, or it may be that I am too shallow.
, if there is really no flaw, how did Mr. Mai know? It seems that this person who has lived for hundreds of years is much stronger than ordinary people like us.
Jiao Ba was not lying at all. He must not have known the details of Mr. Mai at the beginning. At that time, Mr. Mai was very low-key and was just an old professor who knew how to navigate. How could he treat a middle-aged man with white hair?
The young man took it seriously, but because of Mr. Mai, his plan completely failed.
At the most critical moment, Mai Lao ran away. There were so many people at that time, but no one knew when Mai Lao left. From that time on, Mai Lao gradually showed his amazing side, but on the other hand, Jiao Ba
He really didn’t want to kill Shunzi and me. If he had done it at that time, Shunzi and I might not have been able to escape. After all, I had no defense against him at the time.
"Hahahaha... Why are you so excited? What? Did I say it to your heart?" Mai Lao smiled evilly, his eyes full of contempt, "Do you think I don't know? When I escaped from the sunken ship,
The bearded men chased me out in a boat. They wanted to kill me, but unfortunately... they couldn't see enough. It only took me half a minute to kill them all." Mai Lao said at this time, his eyes
It became extremely cold.
"So the bearded men were killed by you?" I wasn't too shocked, I was relatively calm.
After thinking about it carefully, I found that their bodies were hidden in the freezer of the fishing boat at that time, and there was no blood on the bodies. They were all killed by one blow. Only Mai Lao had that terrifying ability, killing almost all of them instantly.
people.
Moreover, when the bearded men died, the blood on their bodies was drained. It was obvious that Mai Lao sucked their blood and then hid the bodies in the freezer. This also echoed what Mai Lao said,
'Someone has prepared good blood for me...' It seems that it is the bearded subordinate.
Then he took a boat to look for us, and the time difference was just right. If Jiao Ba hadn't accidentally discovered the body in the end, he would have basically been unaware of it. After a long time of trouble, it turned out that it was Mr. Mai who ruined his plan.
So he had to pretend to be the Hermit Man in Black and use someone else's identity to implement another plan, but unfortunately everything failed.
But I admire Jiao Ba very much. He was the first person to discover the body at that time, but he didn't have any special emotions. Everything seemed so calm, as if these people had nothing to do with him. It can be seen from this point.
, Jiao Ba and Big Beard are definitely not friends. Jiao Ba is engaged in antique business and has contact with everyone from all walks of life. The relationship between them should be just a layer of interest. As for Big Beard's subordinates, it is even less likely that he knows them.
Jiao Ba stared at Mai Lao with a pair of blazing eyes. His eyes wanted to tear Mai Lao into pieces. He clenched his fists tightly and his body was trembling slightly. He must have beaten Mai if he could.
Lao, I have already drawn a knife to kill him. I don’t know what his expression means? Is it because he is embarrassed by being exposed by Mai Lao in front of his face, or because he hates Mai Lao for ruining his plan. His eyes are a bit complicated. I feel sorry for him.
This seemingly familiar man feels more and more strange.
"It's useless for you to stare at me. You will never be able to avenge this revenge." Mai Lao said casually. He didn't take Jiao Ba seriously at all. "By the way, I forgot to tell you, it's yours."
An accomplice told me everything when he was dying, otherwise... I wouldn't have known. I originally promised to let him live, but... I'm not that kind, hahahaha..." He looked at Jiao Ba with an evil smile.
, as if to mock him again.
Jiao Ba didn't say a word. Jenny, Li Xin and others also looked at him with very unfriendly eyes, especially Jenny. She looked at Jiao Ba as if she was the enemy who killed her father. No wonder,
Jiao Ba's plan was indeed a bit disappointing to everyone. Even the big man who was always generous and kind and did not care about things mocked him a few words, "I didn't expect that Jiao Ba, you are such a villain. It's so embarrassing."
We are disappointed."
What else could Jiao Ba say? At this moment, he must be very angry. Not only did the plan fail, but he was stabbed by Mai Lao. Everything he had done for everyone before was now wiped out.
Even if he had risked his life to save Martin or others, just because of this incident, all his previous efforts were in vain. Jenny and the others would think this was part of his plan. Although I know that Jiao Ba is sincere in saving people,
