White-haired Drought Demon?
Hearing Lin Chuan utter these words.
It wasn't just A Ning who was surprised, the rest of them also felt a shiver down their spines.
“The Drought Demon rages, scorching like flames.”
“Some say it can even trigger a great drought across the land.”
“Could it be that thing that shoved Fatty just now?”
Wang Fatty felt a pang of guilt.
He thought to himself, he just called it a little darling, hopefully it doesn't take it seriously.
A Ning gritted her teeth, as if she had made a decision, she asked: "Lin Chuan, why do I feel like you're always targeting me?"
Lin Chuan turned to look at her: "You and your boss, don't think I don't know what's on your minds."
“Besides, that old geezer, Qiu De Kao, made me lose a lot of money at the auction.”
“Why would I give you a good look?”
A Ning finally understood the reason, her expression turned unpleasant: "My boss said he knew you were short of medicinal herbs, he originally wanted to bid for you, as a reward for this operation, but he didn't expect the things that happened later."
Lin Chuan scoffed at this explanation: "I understand now, you're sometimes even more naive than Wu Xie."
Wu Xie was taken aback, thinking, what does this have to do with me?
Wang Fatty, upon hearing this, was even more startled: "So that old man is your boss! Damn! Extra money!"
“Definitely extra money!”
Lin Chuan said: "Fatty, you're on the wrong path, the right thing to do is not to capture that little thing, and then find a small dark room, tie A Ning up and throw her in?"
“When Qiu De Kao pays up, then you can let A Ning out.”
At this point, he turned to look at A Ning and said: "Your boss doesn't always say that you are his most precious treasure? Do you think your boss will pay to redeem your precious treasure?"
Wu Xie said: “Can we even contact the outside here?”
Lin Chuan replied: "She carries a high-tech computer in her bag, she can even connect to the internet down here."
Wang Fatty gave a thumbs-up: "High! Really high!”
From Lin Chuan’s tone, he didn't seem to be joking.
A Ning's heart completely panicked.
For a moment, she wanted to leave immediately, instinctively retreating to the edge of the pool.
Lin Chuan's smile grew even brighter: "Go ahead and jump, the Black-Scaled Merfolk down there are much crueler than the White-haired Drought Demon."
“Their mouths can even chew bone to dust.”
Seeing this, Yang Yi felt a pang of sympathy and said: "Fatty, Lin Ge, don't scare her.”
Lin Chuan shook his head: "Girl, you need to know that the hardest thing to guard against is not the traps in the tomb, but..."
“Human hearts."
With that, Lin Chuan's figure flashed, a bag already appeared in his hand.
A Ning was shocked and stunned: "You!"
The bag on her back was already in Lin Chuan’s hands.
“Fatty, take her down.”
“Got it!”
“Fatty, I'll do it!"
Wang Fatty was about to take action, but unexpectedly, Yang Yi was the first to move.
“Lin Chuan, give me back my bag!”
She may be scared and helpless in the face of ghosts and demons, but facing someone like her, A Ning is naturally unafraid.
The two women immediately clashed in the antechamber.
Wu Xie exclaimed: “Fatty, your sister is better than A Ning in combat!”
He had witnessed A Ning’s fighting skills.
But he didn’t expect that A Ning would be easily outmatched against Yang Yi.
On the other side.
Lin Chuan opened A Ning's bag.
He indeed found a computer inside.
Seeing this, Wang Fatty was surprised: "Lin Zi, you're a god! Honestly, did you peek at the little girl?"
Lin Chuan turned on the computer and said nonchalantly: "Big Bro, almost thirty, still a little girl?"
Wu Xie was amazed when he saw the computer successfully connecting to the internet: "How much does this computer cost? I really want to get one."
Lin Chuan didn't say anything.
When he saw this on TV, he also thought it was strange.
But after thinking about it carefully.
If the fishing boat on the surface could act as a signal relay, it wouldn’t be difficult.
Soon, Lin Chuan found a way to contact Qiu De Kao, it seemed to be a contact software developed internally by their company.
Listening to the noise from the field, Lin Chuan said: "Girl, keep her quiet for a while, but don't knock her out.”
“Understood."
Yang Yi who was fighting fiercely in the field.
Suddenly, she grabbed something from her own bag, then took advantage of A Ning’s unpreparedness and sprinkled it on her face.
It was an instant.
A Ning's whole body went limp and she collapsed on the ground.
Wang Fatty was taken aback and immediately said with a mischievous smile: "Sister, this thing of yours is useful! When can you get some for your brother?"
Yang Yi shrugged, looking innocent: "Soft Tendon Powder, I don't carry much when I go out, just this little bit, I sprinkled it all."
“Lin Ge, don't worry, she's conscious."
“Just for an hour, she'll be weak and unable to move.”
Even Lin Chuan was amazed by this move.
“Good, that's the effect I want.”
At this moment, A Ning was lying on the ground, unable to move, no matter how she struggled.
Even her eyelids were too heavy to lift.
She had no idea what was happening outside, she could only hear.
Lin Chuan!!
If you put me and that little ghost together!
I will never forgive you!
A Ning screamed in her heart.
Thinking of the White-haired Drought Demon in that spot.
She was terrified.
A strong sense of injustice welled up in her heart.
Her eyes gradually became moist, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
“Beep...beep...beep...”
Lin Chuan dialed Qiu De Kao's video call and motioned for the people on both sides to disperse.
Soon, the screen.
Showed Qiu De Kao lying on a sofa.
When he saw Lin Chuan's face.
Qiu De Kao's expression.
Clearly, he was also surprised for a moment.
Qiu De Kao asked: "Mr. Lin, why are you here? Where's A Ning?"
Lin Chuan sneered: "A Ning deliberately triggered the mechanism, trying to kill me, was that your arrangement?"
“Unfortunately, she didn't kill me, but she killed herself."
Lin Chuan pointed the camera at A Ning, who was lying motionless on the ground.
Seeing this, Qiu De Kao's face clearly changed.
“NO! NO! NO!”
“I never ordered her to do this, it was all her own doing."
A Ning in the corner of the wall heard these words.
She didn't know where she got the strength, her entire body convulsed several times.
“Mr. Lin, I admire you, maybe we can cooperate."
Lin Chuan said with a cold smile: "Cooperate? I have no liking for you right now.”
Qiu De Kao quickly distanced himself, explaining: "Really, I didn't know anything about what A Ning did.”
Seeing this, Lin Chuan's expression softened, and he said: "Tell me about your cooperation.”
Qiu De Kao said: "There's a Snake-Brow Copper Fish in the main tomb of this sunken ship, I desperately need it, if you can find it, I can pay you five million in reward.”
However, Lin Chuan was not moved, he smiled: "There are quite a few Ming blue-and-white porcelain pieces in this antechamber, you can sell them and get more than that.”
Qiu De Kao thought for a moment and asked: "Then, Mr. Lin, what do you want?"
Lin Chuan thought, this old geezer is on the hook, so he said: "Fifty million, after the money arrives, I will take the Snake-Brow Copper Fish out, and I can even help you decipher its secrets, you know, I have the ability."
Qiu De Kao pondered for a while and said: "Mr. Lin, that's not according to the rules, shouldn't it be a deal for a deal?”
Lin Chuan didn't hesitate, he was about to close the computer.
“Wait!”
Sure enough, Qiu De Kao was the first one to lose control.
“Twenty million!”
“I can transfer twenty million to you now, and the rest will be paid after the deal is done.”
Wang Fatty next to him heard this and his mouth was almost split to his ears.
Wu Xie also didn't expect this.
He thought, so money really can be earned just by talking.
This business is much better than running an antique shop.
Quickly.
Lin Chuan saw that the money arrived in the account number he gave.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan finally smiled.
“Mr. Qiu De Kao, pleasant cooperation."
“Mr. Lin, pleasant cooperation, I’ll wait for your good news in Beijing."
Thus, the two ended their conversation.
Wang Fatty praised: "Lin Zi, you're awesome!"
Yang Yi, however, said innocently: "Lin Ge, so our goal this time is to find the Snake-Brow Copper Fish?”
Lin Chuan was in a good mood, he tapped Yang Yi's forehead: "Figure it out yourself."
Wu Xie, however, picked up on something.
“Do you mean everything just now was to trick Qiu De Kao?”
“You don’t actually plan on helping him find it?”
Lin Chuan nodded.
“There were two main reasons for contacting him this time."
“First, for the twenty million."
“Second..."
At this point, Lin Chuan stopped talking, he walked over to A Ning and squatted down.
“Second, to let you see your boss’s true face.”
“Now do you understand, the most precious treasure?”
