The first thousand two hundred and twenty-four chapters sea poisoning miasma
"Chen... why are you on this ship?" When he saw Chen Fan for the first time, Meng Tian's smile on his face faded a lot. As if he had seen a ghost, he took several steps back.
.
In addition, he saw Black Shark who was tied up with a rope net, and he was even more surprised. He shouted with a trembling face, "Black Shark, you..."
Black Shark may have felt shameless, so he kept a sullen face and said nothing, but Chen Fan took the initiative and chuckled, "We are basically all old friends on the boat, why should President Meng Tian be so surprised?"
"Yes, yes..." Meng Tian was sweating. He didn't dare to look at Chen Fan. He lowered his head and said, "I just didn't expect that you would be on the same ship."
Chen Fan said jokingly, "I'm afraid President Mengtian's biggest doubt is why I didn't just stay on that island and wait for your reply, but entered the ghost sea on my own, right?"
Mengtian's face turned red and he said nonchalantly, "There is some misunderstanding about this matter. Please allow me to explain in detail."
Chen Fan looked at Meng Tian motionless, with the half-smiling expression on his face, as if to say, hurry up and make it up, I'm waiting for your reasons.
After compiling it up again and again, Meng Tian couldn't find a reasonable explanation. He had no choice but to laugh, looked away and said, "Our ship encountered a shipwreck, and the losses are very serious now. I don't know if I can borrow your ship to go with us."
?”
Meng Tian kept his posture very low, but Chen Fan felt like a mirror in his heart. It seemed that the reason why the old guy boarded the ship in person was just to find out the details of the ship. If the person on the ship was not him, but
If it were an ordinary sailing ship, this old guy would probably want to rob the ship right away.
However, Chen Fan didn't pay much attention. He pretended to think for a moment, then nodded and said, "Your people can get on the ship if they want, but my ship is very expensive."
Hearing this, Mengtian suddenly had a bad premonition. He twitched the corner of his mouth and said bravely, "I was joking. I don't know how much the rent of this ship is. You can tell me."
Chen Fan smiled half-heartedly and said, "That's true, your Aohai Chamber of Commerce is rich and powerful, and it's natural that you can't reach President Meng Tian with just a small sum of money.
At this point, Chen Fan changed the subject and said with a playful expression, "A few days ago, you took a lot of sea minerals from me. Now I want you to return them all to me. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"
?”
"You..." Upon hearing this, President Meng Tian suddenly felt pain in his face, and almost had an angina attack.
The value of that batch of sea mines, let alone leasing the ship, there would be a lot of surplus even if the whole thing was bought. Chen Fan brought up this kind of attention purely to disgust him.
But the situation is stronger than the people. Now that the matter has come to this, he can only bargain patiently and say, "The price is too expensive. I don't know if there is room for negotiation..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Fan had already lowered his face and said, "If President Meng Tian feels inconvenient, you can disembark and wait for other ships to pass by."
Meng Tian's old face sank, and a look of anger burst out of his eyes, but before he could get angry, he forcefully swallowed it.
At this time, Chen Fan is no longer what he used to be. In this situation, let alone forcing him to return the things he got from Chen Fan a few days ago, even if he is asked to pay more "interest", it is natural.
matter.
Although Mengtian himself is not afraid of being homeless here, what should he do with the group of men on the ship?
After much thought, Meng Tian could only nod his head and agreed, gritting his teeth and said, "Okay, after this matter is over, I will return the batch of sea mines intact."
Chen Fan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Then let all your people board the ship. We are about to enter the ghost sea, and we can't afford to waste time."
Mengtian swallowed his anger and turned around to greet the people under the boat. Soon after, at least a team of hundreds of people boarded the big ship at one time, which immediately made the entire bow of the ship lively. However, Mengtian's face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't help himself.
He walked to a less crowded place at the edge of the deck, his face as heavy as a stone.
At this time, Hei Shark, who had "the same problem" as him, quickly moved over and said with a wry smile to President Meng Tian, "You have to admit that you got on this kid's pirate ship. This ship was originally mine.
Do you see what I said?"
Meng Tian gave him a neutral look, "How did you do it?"
Black Shark said something that was hard to say, and squatted on the other side of the deck without saying a word. The relationship between the two was not very harmonious at first, but after they boarded the ship at the same time, they felt a bit sympathetic to each other. Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh.
Soon after, the fully loaded ship continued to sail towards the ghost sea area. After sailing forward for about half an hour, Chen Fan discovered that the end of his field of vision had been shrouded by a hazy white gauze curtain, with a large amount of miasma.
It was as if the sky and the earth were overwhelming, forming a "white line" directly in the sky. In an instant, the entire sea area was completely covered.
At this time, Black Shark's expression also became extremely solemn. He stood up and said to the people on the boat, "Quick, anyone below the third level of combat power should hide under the cabin immediately. These fogs are poisonous. People who are not evolved enough will be poisoned by inhaling one breath."
Quite troublesome.”
Regarding Black Shark's reminder, Chen Fan did not refute, and quickly signaled the Jade Dragon to do as he said. Soon after, the ship had sailed into the deepest part of the dense fog. In this dense area, almost everyone
There was nothing in sight, and the whole ship was like a headless fly. It could only run wildly in the thick fog. It was confusing, but at the same time, a slight sense of uneasiness emerged in the heart.
Chen Fan walked towards Black Shark and said, "Why is the poisonous miasma in this sea area so severe? If we continue sailing like this, aren't we afraid of hitting the rocks?"
When he came here, Black Shark's expression became much more solemn. He temporarily put aside his grudge with Chen Fan and said calmly, "These poisonous miasma are the natural barriers outside the ghost sea area. Don't worry, there is no possibility of hitting the rocks for the time being. As long as you pass through
After passing through this area blocked by thick fog, you can reach the real ghost sea area, but you must be careful where you step, because there are many monsters deep in this sea area..."
Bang!
Before Black Shark finished speaking, a dull crashing sound came from under everyone's feet. Along with the shaking of the ship, an overwhelming "squeaking" sound came from the deck. Apparently, the lowest cabin suffered some kind of damage.
A strong impact.
Aoyue's expression changed and he scolded sternly, "Didn't you say there is no danger of running aground here?"
Black Shark smiled bitterly and said, "It is true that there will be no rocks here, but it does not mean that there are no other dangers under the sea. We are unlucky. I am afraid that we have been targeted by the underwater beasts."
