After putting away her things, she immediately turned around and ran to Mu Li, but Mu Li's brows suddenly frowned.
"I got the stuff..."
"Shh..." Mu Li gestured to her, then pulled her to the end of her bed and picked up a wooden board there, where she could see the situation on the second floor.
Below Qiao Qiao's room is Qiao Yun's room...
"Dad..." Qiaoqiao was about to speak, but was blocked by Mu Li.
The two of them breathed nervously and looked at the situation downstairs. In addition to Qiao Yun, there were two other people inside, one was Dr. Wei and a strange man.
The strange man waved his hand, and Dr. Wei immediately walked over, took out a knife and stabbed Qiao Yun hard in the abdomen...
The moment it happened, Mu Li hugged Qiaoqiao tightly and pressed her head into his arms to prevent her from seeing this cruel scene!
He tremblingly put the board back into place, took Qiaoqiao's hand and said, "Let's go."
"Mo Xiaoli, did something happen to my father?"
Mu Li saw a kind of desperate pain in Qiaoqiao's eyes...
His heart was instantly stung...
"Qiaoqiao, don't forget your father's wish!" Mu Li firmly held her hand and was about to leave.
There were chaotic footsteps outside the door, and Mu Li was startled. Oh no, these people came too fast and they couldn't leave.
Just as he was thinking of a countermeasure, Qiaoqiao suddenly squeezed his little hand and said, "There is a tunnel under my bed that leads directly to the bottom of the boat."
Mu Li was overjoyed and immediately took her hand and crawled under her bed. Qiao Qiao reached out and touched a switch. The board immediately tilted down and the two of them slid down at the same time...
This is a slide-like escape passage. Perhaps Qiao Yun had long expected that such a day would come, so he built a way of life for his daughter.
The two of them slid to the bottom of the cabin, where there was a small submarine. Mu Li quickly pulled Qiaoqiao over and took Qiaoqiao into the submarine.
It was the first time for Mu Li to pick up a submarine, but he only looked at it for about ten seconds and had thoroughly studied its production principles. He pressed the switch with familiarity, and the submarine started and dived directly into the sea...
As soon as the submarine left the hull, there was a loud "boom", and a big explosion suddenly occurred on the big ship. In an instant, the sea was filled with flames. The submarine was also affected, and was knocked far away by the shock wave generated by the explosion...
The bodies of Mu Li and Qiao Qiao sitting inside were shaking violently and collided with the wall of the submarine so hard that the two little guys fainted at the same time.
When Mu Li woke up, the submarine was completely damaged. The explosion was too powerful. The submarine was considered strong if it was not directly blown up. He quickly went to check on Qiao Qiao and made sure that she had just fainted.
Only then did I feel relieved.
He patted her cheek gently, "Qiaoqiao, wake up... Qiaoqiao... wake up."
Qiao Qiao slowly opened her eyes, looked at the dark surroundings, and shouted in fear, "Mo Xiaoli, Mo Xiaoli..."
"Qiaoqiao, I'm here..." Mu Li responded to her immediately.
"Qiaoqiao, don't be afraid, as long as I'm here, I will always be with you." Mu Li patted her back comfortingly.
"Mo Xiaoli, why is there no electricity here? It's so dark." Qiao Qiao asked sobbing, still not daring to let him go. She was most afraid of the dark.
"Qiaoqiao, listen to me, this submarine is broken down and we have to get out from here. When we came in, I saw two sets of life jackets. Let's put them on and go out together." Mu Li said firmly.
"No, Mo Xiaoli, let's just stay here, okay? I'm afraid of sharks and I can't swim." Qiao Qiao cried.
"No, don't worry. Sharks usually don't attack people. If they can't swim, I'll hold your hand and take you up." Mu Li comforted her.
"But, I'm still afraid..." Qiaoqiao was really afraid of sharks. The thought of that huge and fierce creature made her tremble with fear.
"..." Mu Li didn't expect that her unintentional joke would leave a psychological shadow on her.
"Qiaoqiao, we have to get out of here. The submarine is too heavy and will keep sinking. The oxygen in it will soon be insufficient. If we continue to stay here, we will be suffocated to death." Mu Li told her.
He talked about the seriousness of the matter.
Qiao Qiao tried her best to calm down. She was not a weak girl to begin with. She and her father had been assassinated countless times at Qiao's house. But for some reason, she couldn't help but become weak in front of Mu Li.
.
"Then you promise me, never let go of my hand no matter what." Qiao Qiao hugged him tightly and demanded.
"I promise you, I will never let you go." Mu Li's voice was very firm.
Only then did Qiao Qiao let him go. Mu Li quickly took the two life jackets and put them on, inflated them again, hesitated, and found another rope.
"What are you doing?" Qiao Qiao asked puzzled.
"Tie the two of us together so that we won't be separated." Mu Li smiled and tied the two of them tightly together with the rope.
After everything was done, Mu Li helped Qiao Qiao stand up and came to the entrance of the submarine. In the darkness, he stared deeply into her eyes and asked, "Are you ready? I will open the cover in a while, and you
Just hold your breath and I will carry you upstream."
Although Qiao Qiao was scared, she still nodded firmly.
Mu Li smiled slightly, moved his hand to the cover, and counted, "One, two, three!"
He opened the lid at once, and seawater poured in crazily. Mu Li immediately hugged Qiaoqiao and swam upward quickly. Seawater poured in from all directions and poured into Qiaoqiao's ears and nose. She felt extremely uncomfortable.
She coughed several times unbearably, and the salty sea water poured crazily into her mouth, making her extremely uncomfortable...
Mu Li was shocked. This girl was not familiar with water at all. If she continued like this, she would be dead in less than half a minute.
Without any hesitation, he found her lips and held them, adding only a little oxygen into her mouth.
Qiao Qiao was really uncomfortable to death. This bit of air became her life-saving straw. She sucked desperately, and Mu Li felt uncomfortable in his chest. He did not dare to neglect and quickly swam to the sea. Fortunately, they dived at the same time.
Not too deep, we soon reached the surface of the sea...
※※※※※※
Leng Chen was just a step late. When he arrived at the Qiao family's merchant ship, the place was already in flames. Fortunately, there was a heavy rain, and the exploding fire was quickly extinguished by the rain.
Leng Chen immediately sent people on board to search for Mu Li's whereabouts, but after searching the entire ship, he was nowhere to be seen.
He didn't know whether this situation was good or bad. The good thing was that not finding Mu Li meant that he had escaped and was still alive. The bad thing was that now he had lost Mu Li's whereabouts again.
Leng Chen blamed himself so much that he really wished he could slap himself twice. If he had come a few hours earlier, he might have been able to find him.
"Master Leng, there are three ships ahead with pirate flags on them. I guess the explosion of this ship must have something to do with them!" His subordinates came over to report.
Leng Chen looked at the ship that had been bombed into darkness, with countless crew members who died in vain, and angrily ordered, "Hit me, I'll beat you hard!"
The task of finding Mu Li was very arduous, but Long Shiqing asked him to bring the Dragon Emperor's elite troops here because he was afraid that something might happen on the way. There were no less than dozens of fighter jets and more than a dozen warships.
With this order from him, the three 'pirate' ships were in bad luck. Within ten minutes, all three ships were sunk. Many people escaped in small boats with white flags flying on them.
These people were still puzzled. They had obviously been deployed in advance and had already communicated with the Thousand Islands, the International Coast Guard, and the Anti-Terrorism Group. Why did they suddenly come out with such strong firepower to attack them?
Not to mention their three ships, even thirty ships are no match for them.
There was too much movement here. Half an hour later, the Thousand Islands Navy, Coast Guard, and anti-terrorism personnel all arrived, but no one dared to open fire first, for fear that if things got serious, none of them would be able to bear the consequences.
Leng Chen wasn't stupid either. He didn't kill them all. When the fight was almost done, he asked people to stop the fire. Dozens of heavy fighter jets hovered in the sky, scaring these people to death.
After several people asked about the situation, someone in charge came over to see Leng Chen.
"It turns out we are brothers from the Dragon Empire. The flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and my family no longer recognizes my own family." The person who came was the head of the anti-terrorism unit.
Leng Chen always hated anti-terrorism people the most. He sneered twice and said, "Who is my family member like you?"
The other party had a look on his face, but still smiled and said, "I wonder what the hell you are doing here? How can you open fire so easily?"
"Okay, let me ask you today, who blew up this Qiao merchant ship?" Leng Chen looked at the other party coldly and asked.
"Well...Qiao Yun has offended someone, and someone wants his life!" the man replied.
"who?"
"It's not convenient to say!"
"Okay, it's inconvenient to say it. Today I will tell you clearly that our young master, Long Muli, is on this merchant ship. Long Muli is our old man's heart. If you can't give the Long family a
Satisfactory reply, the old man must demolish these temples of yours! You can decide what to do yourself!"
The anti-terrorists were shocked when they heard this. They never dreamed that the Long family's precious grandson was on this boat.
I quickly made a calculation in my mind. Although money is important, life is more important.
Having money but no life to spend is the worst thing in the world.
"Brother, we really don't know about this matter. The explosion of the ship was entirely caused by the internal strife of the Qiao family. The second son of the Qiao family just left by plane, and it wasn't even half an hour before he left."
"Okay, you are telling the truth, but I will report this matter to the old man. Whether he can spare you depends on your fate." Leng Chen knew that it would be useless to talk to these people anymore, so he might as well continue.
Looking for Muri.
So with an order, more than a dozen warships and fighter jets left directly.
Seeing this, the anti-terrorists sneered disdainfully, "What's so great about the Long family? Sooner or later they will destroy you!"
