The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 724: The Know-It-All Golden Companion
But when everyone matched the clues...

Chu Liuxiang looked at Jin Banhua, surprised and understanding, "So you already knew everything?"

Jin Banhua thought about it and admitted, "It's all pretty obvious, isn't it?"

Hu Tiehua opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief, "But you never said anything? You just watched us running around like headless flies?"

"Why should I tell you?" Jin Banhua said indifferently, "A bunch of pirates, just die."

"But he still wants to kill us!" Hu Tiehua shouted.

"Aren't you alive?" Jin Banhua asked.

Zhang San looked at Jin Banhua strangely, then at Chu Liuxiang, "Is your friend really smart or is he too proud? All the pirates on the ship are dead, but he doesn't think about what we should do next?"

The only people who knew how to operate a ship on the scene were Chu Liuxiang and Zhang San, but the two of them could not steer such a large ship alone.

Chu Liuxiang didn't know how to evaluate Jin Banhua. Looking at Hua Zhenzhen who was walking in with Jin Lingzhi, he could only say, "Let's go to the bottom cabin and find Ding Feng first."

……

Ding Feng's body had indeed disappeared, and Captain Gou was also missing.

The emergency boat at the rear of the deck had disappeared, and although the food in the cabin was still there, all the water buckets were broken.

In the cabin, looking at the six empty coffins in front of him, Zhang San wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked at Jin Banhua, "You know everything, but have you ever thought about the current situation?"

Jin Banhua rubbed his chin, thinking that this plot was different from the original. It seemed that Ding Feng had heard his analysis and did not dare to let Gou Zichang continue to act out the self-mutilation drama, so he took him away directly.

"I thought about it." Jin Banhua nodded.

Zhang San was dumbfounded. "You thought of it?"

Jin Banhua raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Who am I? This is just a trivial matter. What does it matter? I expected this a long time ago!"

"Is this a small matter?" Zhang San glared, "Okay, okay! Then may I ask what you are going to do next? Fly back?"

Jin Banhua said as a matter of course, "Of course we are waiting for rescue. There are ships everywhere on the sea. Isn't it enough to wait for one to come?"

Zhang San: ???
Chu Liuxiang smiled and shook his head, his face calm as he looked at the words Ding Feng left in the coffin: [Chu Liuxiang, I'll give you this place!]

In addition to his name, the other coffins also had names written on them: Hu Tiehua, Jin Lingzhi, Ying Wanli, Bai Lie, and Zhang San.

Ying Wanli smiled bitterly and said, "Not only has he already allocated the coffins for us, but he has also figured out our origins long ago."

"He couldn't tell where you came from. It must have been Captain Hook who told them. Even though you were disguised, he still saw through you."

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "But there is no coffin for Brother Jin here, which shows that they are still not well prepared."

Ying Wanli sighed, "The one who dared to commit the murder in Kaifeng Prefecture must be quite capable."

Bai Lie looked grim, and he glanced at Jin Lingzhi secretly, and said angrily, "It would be fine if they wanted to kill us, but why did they want to kill Miss Jin?"

Jin Lingzhi's body was shaky and his face turned pale.

Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Of course it's because Jin Lingzhi betrayed him."

So Chu Liuxiang asked Jin Lingzhi about Bat Island. Jin Lingzhi admitted that he had been to Bat Island and learned the Qingfeng Thirteen Styles from the island. He also showed his fear of Bat Island.

As for why Jin Lingzhi gave Ding Feng's blood-stained clothes to Chu Liuxiang...

Jin Lingzhi refused to answer.

"But he finally achieved his goal." Ying Wanli sighed, "He used a trick to make us suspicious. Although he didn't kill us one by one in the end, he managed to escape and trapped us here again."

Everyone fell into silence.

"Why aren't you talking?" Jin Banhua suddenly asked. Zhang San couldn't help but ask, "We're all going to die, what else can we say?"

Jin Banhua smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that we can wait for others to save us? I can tell you don't understand me. Look at Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua. They are not worried at all because they trust me."

Zhang San looked at Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua, and indeed, they were not very worried.

Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly, "Although I don't know what other tricks Brother Jin has, since Brother Jin didn't stop Ding Feng and Gou Zichang even though he knew everything, it means he must have made some preparations."

Hu Tiehua said carelessly, "He is a young man from a wealthy family in Beijing, the owner of the White Jade Beauty, the one who killed Shi Guanyin with one sword, and the younger brother of Jellyfish Yin Ji..."

Zhang San stared at Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua in disbelief, "Because you can only wait to die, are you crazy too?"

Hua Zhenzhen couldn't help laughing. Just as she was thinking about whether to tell the truth, she saw Jin Lingzhi pointing at the corner of the cabin, "What is that?"

Everyone looked in the direction Jin Lingzhi's finger was pointing and saw the long box with the hook.

Hu Tiehua rushed over and picked up the box. "Yes, this is indeed a box with a long hook."

Zhang San was puzzled, "He valued this box more than his life, how could it have fallen here?"

Bai Lie asked, "Is the box empty?"

Hu Tiehua shook his head. "It's not empty. It's very heavy. It must be at least a hundred kilograms."

Zhang San's eyes lit up, "Could it be that the gold, silver and jewelry he stole from Kaifeng Prefecture?"

Chu Liuxiang shook his head and smiled, "If the contents of this box are truly priceless treasures, even if Captain Gou himself forgets, Ding Feng will never forget."

Zhang San was stunned when he heard this, "What's in it?"

Hu Tiehua smiled and said, "No matter what it is, we can find out by opening it and taking a look."

Bai Lie's eyes flashed, "Can I open it?"

Chu Liuxiang frowned slightly, "Brother Bai, be careful. Since he left the box here, maybe he wants to tempt us to open it. It may contain spring-loaded poison crossbows, poisonous smoke and drugs. In my opinion, it is better not to open it if you can."

But Bai Lie came here just for this case. Seeing the box that might contain stolen goods right in front of him, how could he resist looking?

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Bai Lie took the box from Hu Tiehua and pulled out a short knife with a flashing cold light.

But before he could unlock the box, he felt his wrist go numb and his elbow go light, and the box was in Chu Liuxiang's hand.

Bai Lie was startled and subconsciously wanted to take action, but Ying Wanli came to his side and said, "Xiang Shuai is always the most cautious. You will never go wrong if you listen to him."

Chu Liuxiang put the box away and stepped back with the dagger in his hand.

But just as he retreated a short distance, Jin Banhua blocked Chu Liuxiang's way again.

Chu Liuxiang asked curiously, "Brother Jin, do you have anything else to say?"

Jin Banhua nodded, "Since you know this box might be dangerous, why open it now?"

Bai Lie was quite dissatisfied with Jin Banhua at this time, "Because you didn't say anything, we are already in a desperate situation. If we don't open it now, when will we open it?"

"Of course, we should wait until we are all on the other boat, and then you can open it on this boat." Jin Banhua said, "In case there is explosives inside that will send us all to the sky."

Bai Lie snorted, "They've already trapped us at sea, why bother setting up traps?"

Jin Banhua snapped her fingers and pointed above her head, "Because they are preparing for this situation."

The next moment, a hearty voice penetrated the deck and came down, "Brother Jin, Brother Chu, we saw a small boat leaving the ship, are you in it?"
