I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 586 Wooden Boat
They seemed to come here with some ulterior motives, but the master seemed to know them.
After that, the master flew to the flying house and discussed something with them.
We didn't know anything about the content of their discussion. We only knew that the master discussed with them for a long time.
After that, the flying house took the master along and dived into the sea.
During that night, we were unable to fall asleep, so we could only look after the corpse of the goddess.
The nine of us took turns guarding the goddess until past midnight.
However, at this time, something suddenly occurred. Something that changed my entire life.
Because the goddess came back alive!
She actually appeared in front of the nine of us.
Her face was very pale and she glared at us coldly.
She asked us where we were bringing her, and we told her the truth.
She looked very angry. I remembered vividly that she said, 'Even now you're planning to bring trouble to me! Luckily I woke up!'
Then she threw a fit and started attacking us.
S-She was very terrifying!
She killed six people at once, in just her first attack.
I wanted to run, but she threw her long sleeves around me and strangled my neck. Then, I was thrown high up in the sky. When I fell, I would definitely be crushed to a pulp!
But luckily, I was supported by a tree branch for a while. I only broke my leg when I fell and sank into a half-coma.
At that time I started thinking in panic-everything didn't make sense. The goddess was still in the coffin. Who was the mad, beautiful woman?
I had no idea what happened to my mates back there.
They were probably all murdered by her.
Fortunately, the bronze house rose from the sea like a big explosion.
Due to the intense vibrations, I fainted.
When I woke up, I was already at a kind-hearted fisherman's house. I then knew that there were eight deaths in total last night. The rest of the people were rescued by the master, and I'm the sole survivor. It was because of this incident, I suffered some disabilities-I couldn't stand the sea breeze. I then stayed permanently at Mo Island. However, the master left a lot of money behind.
The epitaph then talked about how the survivor took the money to start a business and got rich in just a few years. He then became one of the novelties on the island.
His descendants carved this story on his epitaph.
"People from the olden days were like this, especially those who were successful. They like to add some abnormal stories on their tombstone, such as the story of how Liu Bang started Dynasty Han by killing a snake. However, I was rather impressed by their imaginations back then. The flying bronze house that he mentioned-could it be a spaceship from sci-fi movies? Ha-ha!" Yang Tianhua laughed.
"Yeah, the story is indeed absurd, but this highlights its uniqueness!" Gu Yuxiao said.
Chen Hao, however, kept quiet.
After chatting with Yang Tianhua for a while, Chen Hao asked his men to send him back after he understood most of the story.
"I'm going back to my room first. Remember to rest early too. We're planning to set sail tomorrow," Chen Hao said matter-of-factly.
Gu Yuxiao stopped Chen Hao. "Wait. Why were you quiet just now? You didn't express your opinions either. Is something up?" Gu Yuxiao asked. She was actually a very caring and attentive girl. "When Mr. Yang was talking about the flying house, I noticed your eyelids twitch. You must have felt something!"
"You're quite smart. If I told you that everything the survivor described might not be a folklore-it might be true. Would you believe me?" Chen Hao asked.
"For real?" Gu Yuxiao was stunned.
"Yes, it's very real. And things seemed to be more troublesome than what I imagined!" After finishing his sentence, Chen Hao went back to his room. Gu Yuxiao, however, stood rooted to the ground.
In the middle of the night, while listening to the howling of the sea, Chen Hao was meditating on his bed, thinking of the new discoveries that night. According to the survivor, an extremely skilled woman appeared and killed the eight people out of rage.
Who could she be? What was she talking about when she mentioned about 'waking up'?
From her tone, her resentment seemed to be very strong.
Apart from that, the screams and howls in the flying house left a deep impression in this man's mind. Could it be possible that the people who were caught by the League of the Sun were within the house? Could Tongxin and Uncle Yuxing be in there too? Chen Hao was appalled.
As for the lady in white, she should be subdued by the mysterious old beggar in the end.
Chen Hao knew the rest of the story after that-the old beggar and his group went on their journey smoothly. After killing a huge, wounded dragon, they buried it along with the goddess and returned back safely.
"The Sea Palace!" Chen Hao muttered these three words with a blazing look of determination in his eyes.
The sea had stopped howling, but the wind was still very strong.
Looking out to the horizon, huge waves crashed one after another. The vast ocean with no borders sent chills down one's spine.
It was the second day that Chen Hao took the Chen Family's crew out to the sea.
Two days ago, Chen Hao specially sent bodyguards to escort Fang Jiannan and the rest to Sea City so that they could replace Yang Wei to contact someone from the Fang Family to pick them up. Chen Hao was completely reassured after seeing that Fang Jiannan and the others were safe.
Initially, Fang Jiannan wanted to follow Chen Hao, but it was too dangerous.
This wasn't an expedition, nor a travel tour. Moreover, there were even more unknowns and dangers now. After leaving, even Chen Hao, with such strength, could not ensure that everyone would be safe. "Mr. Chen, the estimated distance to the Sea Castle is not far away!"
It was already midday. Just then, Tie Cheng came to the deck and stood behind Chen Hao before informing him in a respectful tone.
"Noted. Back then, the spot where you rowed the boat and drifted there should be somewhere near here too," Chen Hao said.
"That's right. At that time, I followed the direction of the wind, so the boat was going quite fast. I then drifted for around ten days, but my dry provisions only lasted for three days. I almost starved to death for the remaining seven days! According to the sea calculations, the spot should be around here." Tie Cheng looked around and estimated.
"After putting together all the clues and information that we found yesterday, I suspect the goddess whom you saw might be the person we're looking for. Do you think so?" Chen Hao was quietly forming a plan in his mind.
"I think when we enter the Sea Palace, you'll be able to get the answer that you desire!" Tie Cheng said.
"Yeah, I hope so!" Chen Hao looked into the distance.
They were trying to replace their location according to the map of the Sea Palace.
"Hmph? Mr. Chen, what's that? It looks like... a boat?" Just then, Tie Cheng pointed to a certain direction.
Chen Hao raised his head and looked in the direction he was pointing. Indeed, there was a boat. Not just that, it was a big, wooden boat, and the paddles of the boat seemed to be still.
However, the boat was traveling against the current, speeding up toward Chen Hao.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yuxiao also walked out to the deck and asked.
When she saw the incoming boat, she was stunned for a second.
"Inner Energy?" Chen Hao looked at the boat, distinguishing the power reflected by the boat.
He froze and said coldly, "Turn our boat away from it. I'm going to their boat to have a look."
