After becoming a master, he was cheated by the master

As night fell, fish and meat started to be cooked on the other side. Fortunately, the three people on the boat did not have many appetites, so they chatted while eating dry food.

Li Jinxi was obviously a vindictive person, and he did not forget to come forward to make sarcastic remarks at this time. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him. They all returned to the cabin after eating. Zhang Xin set up the night driving and left directly, which made him jump in anger.

There is a living room inside the ship. When Zhang Xin passed by, he found that Shen Yao and Rong Jingsheng were inside, obviously waiting for him. He was slightly stunned and walked over, "It's dark at night, aren't you going to rest?"

"I want to ask some questions." It was Rong Jingsheng who spoke. He looked at Zhang Xin and said in a kind tone, "What happened during that trip to sea."

"Well, looking at the current situation, you will have a similar experience to that group of people." Zhang Xin sighed, and the next second Shen Yao said, "Many people come to Qiongzhou from this pier every day. Why on that day, only Your ship is in danger, it can’t just be Lingbingyu’s problem.”

Zhang Xin sighed, "Indeed. I hid things from you..."

At that time, the dock was not dominated by one big boat owner like it is now, but by many small boat owners. At that time, the boat owned by Zhang Xin's family was considered to be very famous at the dock, so that day, a group of people came up to them and asked for them to be named. Charter his boat.

"Just like you, they recognized the material of the ship." Zhang Xin smiled bitterly, "That day, they came up to me and said they were going to Qiongzhou Island, but they didn't want to go to the island. I was curious, so I eavesdropped on them. conversation……"

At that time, Zhang Xin was just a fledgling young man, and he was a little curious about this special request. When they were chatting in his courtyard, he quietly eavesdropped.

"They said they were looking for shark beads." Zhang Xin still felt curious when he thought about it. "At that time, I had been out at sea for many years, and I had only heard of the legend of the sharks. I had never heard that the sharks really existed. I always regarded them as stories. They also He realized that I was listening and didn't mind it. He called me over and said, let me tell everyone at the dock that they were not allowed to go to sea during those days. For this reason, they even spent a lot of money on all the boats, even the small boats. , so only our fleet went to sea that day.”

At that time, Zhang Xin only wanted to make these distinguished guests happy. When he saw that in the past, it was particularly difficult to catch the rare ice fish, he was just like Li Jinxi tonight. He couldn't wait to catch them, and the boat passengers did not After eating this rare fish, he cooked it by himself, but Zhang Xin didn't eat the fish that day because he felt nauseous.

"After they finished eating, they stayed on the deck drinking and chatting. I persuaded them to go in, but they refused to go in. They said they were not afraid of will-o'-the-wisps or the thick fog at night. The fog has a confusing effect, but they didn't care about my warning. They are all powerful monks. According to the content of their chat, there are even strong ones in the integration stage. Naturally, they are not afraid of will-o'-the-wisps, so I set up the boat's route that day and went to rest." Zhang Xin frowned and recalled, "Second When the weather came up, there were a few people missing. Those people said that they went crazy and jumped off the ship in the middle of the night. I thought it was the thick fog that confused them. They thought so too, so they didn’t stay on the deck that night and went in to rest on their own."

But late at night, Zhang Xin got up, opened the door, and saw someone walking toward the deck in confusion. He subconsciously wanted to hold them back, but those people seemed to be in an illusion, with smiles on their faces. They walked towards the deck, but ignored him when he called them. Some people were startled, and they had to use their spiritual power to tie them up and stop the farce. "On the morning of the third day, they returned to normal. Someone asked what happened last night. They said they heard someone singing and asking them to jump into the sea, and they couldn't resist." Zhang Xin said with fear on his face. As if the scene was still vivid in my mind, "I was scared. I told them I didn't want the money and wanted to go back, but they didn't allow it. They said they would kill me if I regretted it. I wanted to survive, so I didn't return. . I didn’t dare to go out that night, so I lay on the edge of the room and looked out through the window lattice. They were dancing. I vaguely saw a very tall shark staring at this place from a distance, as if it noticed that I was watching it. , that attack, the whole ship was shaking, I fainted directly, and it was already the next day when I woke up. My leg was broken. When I ordered people, I found that all the weak people jumped into the sea. The whole ship except me was full of people. The lunatics who could only dance and giggle. They seemed to have lost their minds. They could only giggle and giggle at the railing of the ship, saying that there were sirens in the sea. I didn’t dare to go any more and turned back immediately... But after I came back, there was a boatload of lunatics. Rumors spread, saying that I was the one who caused it maliciously, otherwise why would I be the only one sober in the whole ship? Ten years have passed and many people have died. The rumors are still there, and no one dares to rent my ship."

Zhang Xin smiled bitterly and looked at the broken leg, "This seems to be warning me..."

Shen Yao and Rong Jingsheng looked at each other. This turned out to be the truth of that year - also, the legendary sharks actually existed. Almost all the ships were destroyed, and the captain, who was of average strength, was conscious and only had one broken leg. He's back, who believes this?

"So you didn't eat the ice fish because you came back and thought about it?" Rong Jingsheng said.

"Yes. I thought about it for a long time when I came back, and realized that the only difference between me and them is this." Zhang Xin sighed, "Once bitten by a snake, I have been afraid of well ropes for ten years. Even if this is just my guess, I don't dare to eat it."

"If this is the difference, just observe it.". Shen Yao watched Zhang Xin go back to rest in despair, and greeted Rong Jingsheng, pointing to the window lattice of the room, which was facing Li Jinxi's ship. The deck was now full of singing and dancing, and it was full of people, all of whom were luxuriously dressed travelers. There was a boatman holding the wooden box, which was full of fish bone residue. It must be the remains of the ice-cold fish feast, which was being poured into the sea water.

Shen Yao looked at the sky. It was almost time to light up the fire as Zhang Xin said. Pale flames lit up on the sea, some of which rushed straight towards the people on the boat. Li Jinxi ordered the boatman to put up a protective cover. The will-o'-the-wisps kept hitting the hull, leaving light burn marks on the protective cover. Li Jinxi said loudly, "Don't panic, everyone. The will-o'-the-wisps on the sea will not burn a single bit. Don't worry, just treat it as a sight to enjoy."

So the boat started singing and dancing again, and everyone pointed at the "will-o'-the-wisp" with smiles on their faces.

Naturally, there was also a will-o'-the-wisp that hit Shen Yao's ship, but it went out as soon as it got close.

"It is indeed a spiritual tree." Shen Yao smiled and said to Rong Jingsheng, "It was destroyed before it even hit me."

"Master..." Rong Jingsheng was a little helpless. The next second, Shen Yao pointed at the increasingly deeper burn marks under the protective cover, "Look there."
