Chapter 229 Granddaughter
The yacht, named Sun Glider, is a private yacht owned by a local real estate agent.

The yacht has three floors, including one single room, two double rooms, and two living rooms, one of which is located on the top floor. The area is not large, but because it is only covered by the roof, the view is better.

Because it is a private yacht, the decoration on the boat is relatively more elaborate, much better than the tourist yacht that Li Zhuo rented in Hailing Island in China.

There are flower arrangements in the two living rooms, as well as other decorations, such as colorful porcelain, and even dolls on the bed in the bedroom.

There were 4 crew members including the captain on this yacht. After Li Zhuo and the tour guide got on the boat, the captain came to say hello.

The guide stood by and translated his words.

The captain said he had enough oil and bait ready, and asked if he needed anything else.

The captain has gone to sea many times and has rich experience. Li Zhuo only needs to explain the situation to him, and he will know what to do:
"My plan is to stay at sea for a day or two. Food, oil, and drinking water must be prepared. I want to go fishing in the Sulu Sea."

The captain hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Is the voyage farther?"

After the guide translated it, Li Zhuo sensed the location of the locked water coffin. It was not close to here. It was estimated that it would be more than 100 nautical miles, or about 200 kilometers.

This distance is not far, but it is certainly not close.

Li Zhuo explained to the captain how far he wanted to go.

The captain understood, so he let several crew members disembark and bought more oil, drinking water, rice and vegetables.

Be prepared, the captain is full of confidence after the preparations are completed this time.

Soon, he drove the yacht away from Zamboanga Port, and then turned to the northwest, where the Sulu Sea was.

Several crew members accompanied Li Zhuo to set the hook on the side of the deck.

They brought up from the bilge a basket of small pond fish bought from the fish market in the morning, and each small fish was directly hung on the hook and thrown down without any treatment.

They threw dozens of hooks down in one breath, and the fishing line was tied at the stern of the boat.

This is a trolling method, which uses the speed of the power boat to make the small fish used as bait quickly change its position on the bottom of the sea, giving the big fish the feeling that the small fish is fleeing, and it is easy to attract fierce predatory fish in the ocean.

This type of trolling is much more efficient than fishing with a hand rod.

Li Zhuo was also attracted by this fishing method, and he also got two fishes on his hands and threw them down.

It was not long before there was a pull on one of the hooks and the crew put on leather gloves and began to pull back on the line.

More than two minutes later, a fish with a red figure was dragged to the side of the yacht.

A crew member took a long hook, hooked down, and hooked up the fish accurately.

This is a red friend fish with a red body, weighing about seven or eight catties, and was hooked to the deck by the crew.

Li Zhuo excitedly put this red friend into another large plastic frame.

Before I had time to take a closer look at this beautiful fish, there was a pulling force from another fishing line, which meant that I had caught another fish.

Li Zhuo watched the crew pull back the fishing line with ease, so he also bought a pair of gloves, ready to pull the fish at any time.

This time the crew took up the line much faster. After dozens of seconds, the crew with the hook dragged it down and dragged a big-eyed pomfret onto the deck.

This fish was not too big, about five catties, but it was quickly dragged from the sea to the surface, and its internal organs were extremely swollen under the sudden drop of pressure. As a result, the swim bladder was spit out directly, and it was already dead and could not die anymore.

Then another fishing line was being pulled, and Li Zhuo went over excitedly and began to reel in the line.

It's easy to watch the crew take up the line, but not so much doing it yourself.

The pulling force from the fishing line is very strong, and the direction is often changed. If it weren't for the drag force brought by the yacht, Li Zhuo felt that it would be quite difficult to catch it by hand.

Although the work was not very quick, at least Li Zhuo took back the line and dragged a big white fish from the sea to the surface.

This is a big trevally. It looks a bit domineering when you look at its size. Its head is arc-shaped, shiny and silvery. Looking at it, Li Zhuo even thinks that if you hit its head with your hand, it will probably be a big hit. There was a banging sound.

This fish is estimated to weigh about ten catties, and it is not small in size.

The crew hooked the fish with a long hook and pulled it up abruptly.

This fish was quite vigorous, and when it came up, it slapped the deck.

This was a good catch, and Li Zhuo happily threw it into the fish box.

The weather was hot, in order to prevent sunburn, Li Zhuo did not continue, but went to the living room on the third deck, hiding from the sun, enjoying the sea breeze, and watching the crew continue to fish.

Not long after, they cheered. Li Zhuo stood up and saw a yellow and green, huge ghost knife with a metallic illusion flashing on it, and it was hooked to the deck.

This fish was not bad, a crew member quickly carried it into the kitchen, and after a while, there was a plate of ghost knife sashimi in front of Li Zhuo.

The taste is not as smooth as salmon. Its muscle texture is distinct, chewy and slightly sweet. This fish is also delicious for sashimi.

When the sun was no longer so poisonous, Li Zhuo continued to pull fish and had a great time. The harvest was two full baskets of fish, the largest one being a sea wolf fish, which was nearly 1.5 meters long.

It took half a day to go to sea, and I caught more fish than I could eat for ten days.

It can only be said that the marine fish resources in the Philippines are really rich. As long as you hook the hook, you have a chance to catch a big fish.

The captain drove for nearly 12 hours at a speed of 10 knots before approaching the sea area.

Li Zhuo knew that he was approaching, so he went to the cab, carefully perceived the position of the cigarette, and directed the captain to adjust his direction.

Finally, towards evening, the yacht came within one kilometer of the water coffin.

From this distance, neither the captain nor the crew could see the water coffin floating on the water.

The captain was obviously a little afraid of this thing and didn't dare to approach it.

They have some legends related to water coffins, which are quite evil. For example, the local people believe that the size of the coffin should be the same as the size of the deceased. If it is made bigger, it will cause another person to die.

Also, do not touch the water coffin floating in the sea, otherwise it will easily alarm the undead.

Li Zhuo didn't intend to get close either, and he was also a bit taboo.

But as long as he stays within a kilometer, he can talk to it.

So he asked the captain to keep the yacht within one kilometer on the grounds that he wanted to take pictures.

That's fine with the captain.

Li Zhuo asked the crew and the tour guide to prepare dinner, and then climbed up to the third-floor deck alone with a telescope to look at the lonely water coffin.

He could clearly see geckos and other patterns carved on the wooden coffin through a telescope.

Geckos in the Philippines symbolize happiness, wealth and eternal soul.

He began to try to communicate with it spiritually:
"Are you still there? Is there any unresolved wish that makes you restless even after a long sleep?"

Immediately, there was a faint wave of mental fluctuations, and it is certain that this is more like an obsession, which was transformed by the deceased's thoughts during his lifetime:
"Psychic? You can communicate with me, a dead person?"

This consciousness obviously came from an old soul, which should be a person who died at an advanced age.

"No, I just came here to fulfill your long-cherished wish. Tell me, I will try my best to help you fulfill that long-cherished wish that makes your soul unable to rest peacefully."

The old voice sounded again:

"Thank you. I passed away in old age. As far as I am concerned, I have no regrets. The only thing I can't let go of is my young granddaughter. I am worried that she will not survive."
