Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

The Hailiu boat sailed on the sea for several days. Ruan Hei watched them getting closer and closer to the coral spiral, and he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Xiaohua lay on the bow of the boat, and Heixiazi followed beside her to protect her, fearing that the little ancestor would accidentally fall into the sea.

Hei Xia Zi looked at the sudden change in the sky ahead, then picked up Xiao Hua, who was still lying on his stomach and secretly looking at the sea.

Xiaohua was suddenly picked up and startled, "Hei Xiazi, what are you doing?"

Hei Xiazi held him in his arms and strode towards the cabin with a serious face, "It's dark outside, I'm afraid something bad is going to happen. You're still young, just leave these things to your little dad and the others."

Xiaohua leaned over Heixiazi's shoulder and saw that the sea, which had been cloudless just a moment ago, had suddenly become windy and rough, with waves surging up on both sides of the boat from time to time.

Ruanhei looked at the sky not far away, pulled down the speaker and shouted inside: "Boss Zhang, the weather outside has changed, please come over and take a look."

Not long after Soft Black put down the horn, Zhang Haihua and Zhang Haike came over, followed by another helmsman, Uncle Ming, and Huba and three others.

The cab was crowded with a bunch of people, and the two people who came with Uncle Ming could only stand outside the cab, jumping on tiptoe to look inside the cab.

Ruanhei looked at Zhang Haike who came to the cab and said, "Mr. Zhang, look at the sky outside. It seems that there is something in the fog."

Zhang Haike took the telescope handed to him by Zhang Haihua.

Zhang Haike: "There is something coming towards us inside, but the fog is too thick to see clearly. Let's go upstairs and turn on the searchlight first."

After Zhang Haike finished speaking, Zhang Haihua walked out of the cab, went to the roof, turned on the searchlight, and shone the searchlight into the fog.

Huba and the others were mortals and could not see clearly, but the Zhang family had been trained to see in the dark since childhood, so they could vaguely tell that it was a ship, but they could not see clearly what kind of ship it was.

Zhang Haihua held a loudspeaker on the roof and said, "Guest, go call Hei Xiazi."

Zhang Haike didn't say any more nonsense, "Soft Black, you just take the helm and don't be distracted by other things. I'll go find someone who can see clearly."

Ruanhei and Uncle Ming are both at the helm.

Hubayi, Fatty, and Yang Xueli stood aside and asked, "Boss Ruan, is there anything we can help with?"

Soft Black looked the three of them up and down and said, "Go and fold up the sails, and secure the items on the deck, so that they don't fall into the sea due to the wind and waves."

The three ran out of the cabin and came to the deck, where they saw that the male apprentice of Ruanhei was already packing up.

The two men who were brought by Uncle Ming and said they were doing odd jobs quickly retreated into the corner of the cab when they saw that everyone had left, muttering to themselves.

Soft Black looked at the two cowards huddled in the cab and said, "What are you still doing here? Go and help."

The fat one of the two cowards hugged the thin one tightly, trembling and saying, "I can't swim!"

After hearing what he said, Ruanhei relaxed his grip, and the steering wheel changed direction due to the impact of the waves. Ruanhei looked at the boat that changed direction and could only let Uncle Ming and him control the steering wheel together. "If you don't help, I will throw you overboard."

Zhang Haike and Hei Xiazi arrived and asked, "Who are you throwing down?"

Soft Black looked at the man next to Zhang Haike, who was dressed in black and wearing a pair of sunglasses, "Boss Zhang, can this man see clearly?"

Hei Xiazi knew that his appearance was unreliable in the eyes of those who didn't know him, but those who knew him knew how powerful his eyes were. "Don't worry, the darker it is, the clearer my eyes can see."

Ruanhei looked at the man with a smirk on his face, but he felt a bad feeling in his heart, as if he was entangled by something.

Black Blind Man: "What do you want me to come over to see?"

Zhang Haike: "Mr. Hei Xiazi, there is a boat in the fog, but the fog is too thick and we can't see it clearly. I would like to trouble you to help me see what kind of fishing boat it is."

Hei Xia Zi was also curious, and there were things that the Zhang family didn't recognize.

"Okay! But you know my old rules."

After saying this, Hei Xia Zi walked out of the cab and walked on the shaking deck as if it were flat ground.

The people who were busy on the deck were also surprised to see the black bear walking as if it were flat ground. After all, in their opinion, this man in black was just a blind man who might fall on land, but how come he could walk more smoothly on the sea than on land?

Hei Xiazi looked at the people who had stopped their work and said, "What are you looking at, you little brats? Don't you have to work anymore?"

Huba and his companions then realized that they still had things to do.

Black Bear stood at the turret of the whaling gun and looked into the distance.

When Hei Xiazi returned to the wheelhouse, he saw "a boat that looked like it was made of paper, covered in blood, and hung with things like prayer flags."

Uncle Ming also reacted after hearing this, "That's the blood-marking ship."

"Mark the blood ship."

Huba and his companions packed up their things on the deck and returned to the cabin. They happened to hear what Uncle Ming said. This was the first time they had heard this name.

"Marking blood boats is a custom in some seaside areas."

"What custom?"

“I heard that there is a giant sea beast called Da Yong Sha near the sea. It often stirs up storms and attacks fishing boats.

Then, the fishermen on the beach were troubled by the huge sand surge, and I don’t know where they heard this recipe from.

The Dayongsha has thick skin and flesh but no means of attack. When fishermen on the beach catch it, they tie it up, make scars on its body, and then build a boat on its back.

The ship was drifting in the sea with the big sand, but because the big sand was restricted in movement and bled, it could only be bitten by the hunters in the sea who came after smelling the blood.

I guess the big shoal saw our boat and wanted to use our boat to knock the paper boat off his back so that he could escape.”

Zhang Haike: "Dayongsha is also a creature of the sea, the strong prey on the weak."

Zhang Haike took out a golden, glowing bead from his arms and said, "Hua Zi, go put it on the bow and secure it."

When Hei Xia Zi took out the bead, he felt his blood boiling. His intuition told him that this was a good thing, but it also told him that it would be dangerous to take it.

Wang Kaixuan looked at the huge golden bead, drooling, "Mr. Zhang, what is this? Such a huge golden bead."

Huba saw the fat man who was about to take action and patted his head, "What are you doing? Why do you want to take action on everything you see? You still can't change your bad habit."

The fat man came to his senses after being slapped and looked at Zhang Haike embarrassedly.

Huddled in the corner, one fat and one thin, they stared at the glittering golden beads, their eyes turning into the shapes of money.

Zhang Haike: "This is not a gold bead, this is a dragon bead that the young prince specially took out from his private vault."

"Dragon Ball!"

Huba and his companions were stunned when they heard the word "Dragon Ball".

Zhang Haike looked at this group of ignorant people and nodded slightly. They were even worse than when he knew about it.

"That's right. Although it's not a genuine dragon ball, it is a dragon ball that has been transformed into a dragon after cultivation. It is more than enough to guard this ship now."

Zhang Haihua took the dragon ball handed over by Zhang Haike, put it in the golden wire cage, stood at the bow mast, and hung it on it with a nail.

The blood-marked ship that was heading towards them seemed to sense some danger and turned around and left not far from them.

The departure of the Marked Blood Ship also took away the violent storm, and the sky has now returned to the same state as before the Marked Blood Ship appeared.

Soft Black looked at the sky that suddenly cleared up, "Mr. Zhang, we are about to enter the Coral Spiral, and the instruments on our ship have begun to malfunction."

Zhang Haike took a look at the instruments in the cab and found that some of the pointers on the instruments had indeed deviated from their directions.

Hubayi: "Mr. Zhang, leave this to us!"
