“Boss, what’s the matter?” Xiao Zhan was a bit baffled.
“Don’t ask so much, stop the boat quickly.” Ye Qiu shouted anxiously.
Xiao Zhan saw that Ye Qiu’s face was not right and quickly gave the order to stop the speedboat.
At this time, the speedboat was only 40 meters away from the steamship in front.
“Old thing, have you found anything wrong?” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long-browed Real Person looked ahead and said: “It’s too quiet.”
“There are green mountains and clear waters here, and the environment is quiet and secluded, but not a single bird is seen.”
“Even the sound of mosquitoes and insects has not been heard. It’s a bit abnormal.”
Ye Qiu asked: “ Xiao Zhan , how many people are there on the steamship in front?”
Xiao Zhan replied: “There are twenty Longmen disciples on the Longchang No. 2. They came here to salvage the corpse.”
”Salvage the corpses?” asked the Long-browed True Man in confusion. “What do you mean?”
Ye Qiu explained, “A ship of the Dragon Gate sank here. There were thirty Dragon Gate disciples on it. The Longchang No. 2 came here to salvage the corpses.”
The Long-browed True Man’s eyes widened. “Didn’t you say there is a peerless great tomb here? Are you lying to me?”
”How could I lie to you.” Ye Qiu said, “A Dragon Gate disciple reported to Suzaku before the ship sank, saying that there is a peerless great tomb here.”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan secretly gave Ye Qiu a thumbs up.
The boss is so smart. He pushed the matter to the dead person. When the peerless great tomb can’t be found, even if the Long-browed True Man is angry, he can’t do anything to Ye Qiu.
After all, the dead can’t testify.
The Long-browed True Man asked Ye Qiu again, “Little bastard, tell me, is there really a peerless great tomb here?”
Ye Qiu replied, “Whether there is a great tomb or not will be known after we figure out what’s going on here.”
The Long-browed True Man was very angry. “Little bastard, let me put the ugly words first. If there is no peerless great tomb here, I’ll skin you alive.”
Skin me alive? Just you?
Hehe…
Ye Qiu sneered.
Then, looking at the Longchang No. 2 in front, he said, “Old thing, haven’t you noticed that the ship in front also seems a bit Something is wrong. ?”
The Long-browed True Man stared at the ship and observed it for a while, and said, “It’s too quiet.”
What True Man Long Eyebrow said was also the doubt in Ye Qiu’s heart.
There are twenty disciples of the Dragon Gate on the Longchang No. 2. They came here to salvage the corpses. Logically speaking, there should be a lot of movement. But now, not only is there no figure in sight, but even the sound of talking has not been heard.
It’s too quiet.
Ye Qiu ordered Xiao Zhan : “Immediately contact the disciples of the Dragon Gate on the Longchang No. 2.”
”Yes.”
Xiao Zhan responded and quickly took out his mobile phone to make a call.
After a while.
Ye Qiu asked: “How is it?”
Xiao Zhan replied: “I called the phone on the ship, but no one answered.”
Ye Qiu ordered Xiao Zhan again: “Contact Zhuque and ask about the situation.”
Xiao Zhan made another call to Zhuque. After asking, he replied to Ye Qiu, “Boss, I asked Zhuque, and she doesn’t know either.”
Ye Qiu then said: “Then did you ask Zhuque when was the last time she contacted the people on the Longchang No. 2?”
”Zhuque said that the last time they contacted was still at ten o’clock this morning, and since then, they haven’t contacted again.”
”Boss, could it be that the disciples of the Dragon Gate on the ship were too tired from salvaging the corpses and all fell asleep?”
Xiao Zhan shook his head after saying this: “This possibility should be very small.”
”When the disciples of the Dragon Gate perform tasks, they have a clear division of labor. Even if they rest, there will be someone on duty and on guard. This kind of situation will not occur.”
”I’ll make another call and try.”
Xiao Zhan made another phone call, but the result was the same. No one answered.
”Strange, why isn’t anyone answering the phone?”
Could it be that these people are not on the ship?
“It shouldn’t be. They came to salvage the corpses. If they’re not on the ship, then where could they be?”
Xiao Zhan had a confused look on his face.
“Ding!”
Suddenly, Xiao Zhan ‘s phone rang. He took it out and saw that Cao Qingcheng had sent him a form.
Xiao Zhan opened the form and saw that it recorded the names, identity information, and contact methods of the twenty Longmen disciples on the Longchang No. 2.
“Boss, Zhuque sent over the contact information of those twenty Longmen disciples. I’ll give them a call and ask.”
After Xiao Zhan finished speaking, he started to dial the first number.
“Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected…”
Xiao Zhan then dialed the second phone number.
“Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected…”
Xiao Zhan followed by dialing the third phone number.
“Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected…”
Xiao Zhan still wanted to continue making calls, but was stopped by Ye Qiu. “Forget it, don’t call anymore.”
“Boss, what should we do now?” Xiao Zhan asked.
”Let’s go and take a look at the ship in front!” Ye Qiu said worried about the danger. ” Xiao Zhan , you stay here with the old thing, and I’ll go over first.”
“Little brat, what do you mean? Do you look down on this poor Taoist?” The Long-browed True Man said dissatisfiedly: “This poor Taoist is a peerless powerhouse who has cultivated nine true qi. If no immortal cultivator comes out, who dares to contend with this poor Taoist?”
After saying that.
The Long-browed True Man rushed out in a flash. His toes stepped on the river surface a few times. In an instant, his body landed on the deck of the Longchang II.
“Showing off!”
Ye Qiu cursed in a low voice and ordered Xiao Zhan : “Start the boat!”
The speedboat continued to move forward.
The distance of forty meters was reached in a few seconds.
When Ye Qiu boarded the Longchang II, he felt a little uneasy and asked the Long-browed True Man: “Old thing, have you found anything?”
The Long-browed True Man shook his head: “Not a single ghost was seen.”
“This is impossible!” Xiao Zhan didn’t believe it and quickly got into the cabin.
Ye Qiu followed closely behind.
The two searched around and didn’t see a single person, nor did they find any abnormality on the ship.
Finally, the three gathered on the deck.
“Strange, where did the more than twenty living people go?”
“Where could they have gone?”
Xiao Zhan frowned and said: “Boss, do you think they might have encountered some sudden situation and then left here by lifeboat?”
“I just checked. The lifeboats are still there.” Ye Qiu said: “Old thing, help me do a divination.”
The Long-browed True Man took out three copper coins from the cuff of his Taoist robe, muttered incantations in his mouth, and after a while, with a flick of his right hand, suddenly, the three copper coins spun rapidly in the air.
A moment later.
The three copper coins “clinked” and fell to the ground.
The Long-browed True Man took a look, put away the copper coins, and said, “The divination shows a very auspicious omen.”
Ye Qiu’s heart tightened.
Just then, Xiao Zhan let out a exclaimed, “Boss, look quickly –”
Ye Qiu looked towards the river surface in the direction where Xiao Zhan was pointing, and a floating corpse appeared in his sight.
Immediately afterwards, a second floating corpse and a third floating corpse appeared.
The fourth…
In the blink of an eye, a total of twenty floating corpses appeared on the river surface!
