Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Nine: Things That Can't Be Let Go
“Oh my God!
Old man!" When Fat Wei saw this dazzling pearl, he immediately jumped up and wanted to take it over and take a closer look.
"You have this treasure, why didn't you take it out earlier!
Let me take a look and I’ll give you an estimate!”
However, Mr. Wu immediately retracted his hand and held Mingzhu tightly in his arms as if protecting the most important thing.
"what are you doing?
This is a clean thing, how can you let you touch it casually?
Let me tell you, I have never taken out this thing in my life. During the years of natural disasters, I almost starved to death and never sold this bead.
Today I just want you to take a look. If you want to miss this bead, there is no way!
Unless I die!"
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous,..." Fat Wei immediately smiled and waved his hand,
"I just want to take a look, but I can't steal it! Look at how stingy you are, it's true!
By the way, I really want to ask.
If this shark can really shed tears and turn into pearls, then your village should have prospered long ago! Why should you be so poor!"
"What do you know?" Old Man Wu said, covering his precious pearl:
"The sharks are different from the sharks. It turns out that the sharks caught in the village are low-level sharks, just like big fish as tall as a person.
The one I caught is different, it is spiritual! It is a mermaid who has become an immortal!
That’s why her teardrops turned into pearls and she looked so beautiful!”
"Oh my god~~, you're really good at this, and you've become an immortal!" Fatty let out a cry and almost didn't spit it out.
"Can I ask you a question?" Chen Zhi suddenly looked at Old Man Wu seriously, with a solemn expression on his face.
"There's one thing that's strange to me,
Mr. Wu, you yourself said just now that you were very short of money before you got married, and you also went through many times of money shortage later on.
Then why have you never thought of selling this bead?
After all, wasn't your purpose of taking this bead just for money?
And since the shark left this bead to you and told you the secret of going to the island, it proves that she was friendly with you at that time.
Then why did we arrest you again? This is not logical!"
"This..." When Wu Ranyan said this, he seemed a little unable to continue, but he still shook his head stubbornly.
“I don’t know, how I was arrested at that time, I really can’t remember!
As for why I don’t sell this bead..., this..., this is my own business, and you don’t need to worry about it!
"Okay!" Chen Zhi continued to ask, "Then do you still remember what the shark looks like?"
"This..." After hearing this question, Old Man Wu was speechless for a moment, and then said in disgust,
"What can it look like? Anyway, it looks like that!
Things like sharks are so ugly, remember what they do.
I..., I really can't remember.
Okay, I’ve said what you want to ask, so just tell me what you want to do.
Except not letting me go into the sea late at night, anything will do..."
"...",
Chen Zhi looked at Old Man Wu silently for a while, and then said calmly:
"Looks like I'm still going to make things difficult for you!
We just need you to take us into the sea with you, and take that bead with you.
Based on what I know now, this bead should be a contract. Only with this token can we find the island! Otherwise, we can't find it even if we turn the sea over.
And maybe, this contract also includes you, which means that only if you bring that bead can you find the Shark Island."
"That's not possible..." After hearing this request, Old Man Wu immediately started to tremble involuntarily:
"You don't know how scary that shark is. After so many years, I see that scary face every time in my dreams. Although I can't remember her facial features, I still remember her smiling in the gap in the sea.
That ghostly appearance is so scary, I really don’t want to see it again..."
"Old man, aren't you inconsistent?" Fat Wei couldn't stand listening anymore.
"You just said you forgot what the shark looked like!
Now he said he was afraid of her grimace!
Do you remember it or not?"
"What I said is true..." Old man Wu didn't know what words to use to describe it at this time.
"I really forgot what he looked like!
But I just remember that her face was scary... it was really scary!"
"Okay!" Chen Zhi seemed to be no longer interested in what Old Man Wu said, and suddenly stood up:
"We will go to sea tonight!
It’s up to you to decide whether you want to go or not! I’m waiting for your news!”
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and left, never looking back at Old Man Wu again.
Fat Wei felt confused, and he kept pulling Chen Zhi's arm in two steps.
"Hey, what are you doing?
We are now begging others to do things, and if you have anything to say, please speak up!
Without him to lead the way, we would be in trouble at night."
"He will come!" Chen Zhi said softly and firmly,
"There's something there that he can't let go of!"
In the following time, Chen Zhi began to prepare to go to sea.
He first asked everyone to pack their work clothes and luggage, and then rented two more spacious and sturdy boats that could fight the wind and waves at night.
Ding Ning has been in a trance since arriving in this sea area, and started to have nightmares last night.
But this is not the terrifying face in the nightmare, but the dream of myself in a deep sea, where it is very cold and the world is chaotic.
He was very cold, but he couldn't scream.
After little Qin Yueyang arrived here, he became very strange and often babbling.
At first, Chen Zhi didn't know what she was learning, but later he discovered that she was pointing at the sea outside and kept learning some strange sounds.
The sound sounded like a woman singing, but when you listened carefully, it sounded like a man screaming.
This is not their first mission, and they are already familiar with things like exploration.
The preparations were quickly completed, and Lao Jiandou also found a set of small-sized work clothes for Ding Ning.
This work clothes is smaller in size, but functionally the same as those worn by Chen Zhi and others.
The hood is an oxygen mask. It can be used for a long time. It can automatically generate oxygen in a confined space. It has a good diving function. It is very suitable for Ding Ning to wear.
Finally, Chen Zhi confirmed the people who would go to sea together this time.
Chen Zhi, Fat Wei, Guidao, Ji Ying, Ding Ning, and Yang Wumao who was coerced and induced.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, Chen Zhi left little Qin Yueyang in the care of Lao Jiandou, and emphatically warned him to be careful not to lose her, and to try not to let others see her.
And at 7:30, that old man Wu actually appeared in front of them.
He said he was willing to take them out to Yehai together...
