The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 725: Jin Banhua always has a backup plan
When Chu Liuxiang saw Li Yuhan, Liu Wumei, Yidianhong and Qu Wurong standing on the deck together, he was extremely surprised.

"Why are you all here?" Hu Tiehua asked with a big laugh.

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "Brother Jin planned and asked us to follow behind, saying that if we see any unexpected situation with the ship, we will come and pick you up as soon as possible."

Liu Wumei continued, "So when we saw your ship suddenly stop, we sped over to check, and saw a small boat leaving and heading east."

Yidianhong asked, "But what happened?"

Qu Wurong looked around and saw that everyone was fine, so he nodded and smiled, "It seems that everyone is fine."

Ying Wanli also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and looked at Jin Banhua and said, "Brother Jin is so good at planning, I admire you very much!"

"It's a small matter!" Jin Banhua raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Now we can open the box. Even if it is explosives, we can still enjoy a rare shipwreck show."

So Chu Liuxiang put the box on the deck, stepped back twenty steps, and threw a flying knife...

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the box exploded.

The surrounding deck parapets were all shattered, and even the masts not far away began to tilt.

Everyone was shocked and hurriedly jumped back onto the boat driven by Li Yuhan.

……

"You knew it a long time ago?" Bai Lie looked at Jin Banhua with shock and a little anger, "Why didn't you say it?"

"I don't know." Jin Banhua denied decisively.

"But you guessed it!" Bai Lie said angrily.

Jin Banhua nodded, "That's easy to guess!"

Hu Tiehua shouted, "This is not easy to guess, okay? How did you guess it?"

You know, he was the first one to get this box. If Bai Lie hadn't wanted to open it, he might have opened it himself.

Jin Banhua said as a matter of course, "We are already trapped at sea. Logically, there is no hope for rescue, but they still left a trap. Of course, they are worried that something might happen if they are late. We waited for rescue, right?"

Hu Tiehua nodded decisively, "Yes!"

"In that case, the box must contain something that can kill us instantly. But whether it's a spring-loaded poison crossbow or a poisonous smoke drug, it can't kill all of us, right?" Jin Banhua continued to ask.

Hu Tiehua thought about it and continued to nod, "Yes..."

"So, this thing must be something that can destroy the ship. In addition to explosives, is there anything else?"

Jin Banhua spread her hands, "Think about it again, they only dared to leave the things behind, but didn't dare to open them before leaving. Isn't it obvious what's in this box?"

Hu Tiehua looked confused and said hesitantly, "Right?"

Ying Wanli was simply astonished. He used to think that Jin Banhua was a playboy, but he didn't expect that the other party's mind was so meticulous.

"Let's go!"

Jin Banhua pulled Li Yuhan towards the bow, "Where did that boat go? Can we catch up with it?"

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "The boatmen have already identified their direction. Our boat is big and fast, so it won't be a problem to catch up with them."

Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up. "Ding Feng dared to leave us here and escape on a small boat. There must be some boats nearby to pick him up. If we chase them, we might be able to find the boat to Bat Island."

Hu Tiehua slapped the parapet and said angrily, "I still consider that Chief Gou a friend. Let's catch up with him. I want to teach him a lesson!"

So everyone stayed on the deck and watched the old sailors steer the ship and chase eastward. …

Hai Kuotian disappeared last night and everyone spent another whole night dealing with the case, but Ding Feng escaped in the morning.

Ying Wanli said, "He must escape during the day. If he leaves at night, the sea will be windy and rough in the middle of the night. What if he misses the ship that is supposed to pick him up?"

Zhang San looked up at the sky and said, "There are clouds in the sky and it will be windy at night."

Jin Lingzhi looked ahead and saw a small black dot on the sea level in the distance. Looking closely, he could see that the small black dot was a small boat with two people paddling hard on the boat.

Hu Tiehua laughed loudly, "They probably never thought in their dreams that we could catch up with them so quickly!"

Zhang San smiled and said, "We should catch up with them in a big boat!"

Ying Wanli and Bai Lie looked at the boat getting closer and closer. They could almost see Ding Feng and Captain Gou Zi on the boat. There was also a large wooden box next to them. They couldn't help but smile.

Bai Lie whispered to Ying Wanli, "Chu Liuxiang is indeed worthy of his reputation, but that Jin Banhua is even more difficult to figure out. Is he really a playboy from the capital?"

Ying Wanli sighed, "If all the dandies in the capital were like this, I should have retired long ago."

Bai Lie thought for a moment and said, "Great wisdom appears foolish, pretending to be stupid is not crazy?"

Ying Wanli pondered and said, "The waters in the capital are deep. The Jin family is a wealthy family in the capital, and his grandfather is a high-ranking official in the court. We really need to pay attention."

The two looked at each other and nodded in understanding.

At this time, Chu Liuxiang also shared his situation with Li Yuhan and others.

Li Yuhan looked at Jin Banhua helplessly. He remembered how he felt when Jin Banhua teased him and pressed his acupoints, leaving him unable to do anything but sit there stiffly.

"Brother Jin looked at us the same way that day at Yongcui Villa, right?" Li Yuhan said with a wry smile.

"Of course not!" Jin Banhua put her arm around Li Yuhan's shoulders. "You were only targeting Chu Liuxiang at the time. Your goal is the same as mine. We are on the same path!"

Liu Wumei smiled and said, "Hasn't Marshal Xiang found Brother Jin's white jade beauty yet?"

Jin Banhua said seriously, "I suspect he did it on purpose, so that he could legitimately send Miss Su and the others to me, and then be with Hu Tiehua openly."

Everyone immediately thought of what Jin Banhua said when they left Shenshui Palace, and they all couldn't help laughing.

Li Yuhan smiled and said, "No one in the martial arts world would disbelieve the news coming out of Shenshui Palace."

Qu Wurong added quietly, "The love between Longyang and Yang has been a refined thing since ancient times."

Chu Liuxiang was embarrassed and touched his nose to remind him, "Bat Island is mysterious and unpredictable. We still have to be more careful."

At this moment, they were about to catch up with the small boat, and a large ship appeared not far from the small boat.

Of course Ding Feng and Captain Gou saw the big ship behind them. They also saw Hu Tiehua and others who were standing at the bow and looking at them with smiles. Their faces changed drastically.

"Run! Keep running!" Hu Tiehua laughed, "We were not killed by the explosion. Are you surprised?"

Ying Wanli had already taken off his disguise and shouted to Gou Zichang, "You can't run away. Hand over the stolen goods and come back with me to confess your crime!"

Jin Banhua waved at Ding Feng, "I arranged this boat to follow us. I was thinking of changing to another boat when we got bored of living on Hai Gang Leader's boat, but I didn't expect it would be useful."

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Our boat is big and fast. Brother Ding and Brother Gou, would you like to get on board and have a chat?"

Ding Feng and Gou Zichang, "..."
