Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After drinking the dicine, Yu Niaoniao was a little sleepy.
Xiao Juan picked her up and placed her on the bed, covering her with a blanket. Yu Niaoniao closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.
Xiao Juan looked at her quietly and wanted to ask what surprise she had prepared. If she was short of money, he could give it to her.
But in the end, he resisted asking.
Because he knew that once he asked, Niaoniao would definitely be unhappy. Xiao Juan reached out and gently pushed the loose hair away from her forehead.
“You went to so much trouble to prepare a surprise for , which proves that you actually have in your heart, right?”
Yu Niaoniao was already asleep, so she naturally would not give any response.
The rchant ship left the ford and moved gently along the river.
It was peaceful for five days.
On the sixth day, it suddenly rained, and the river rose.
Wang Yue reminded everyone that there was a dangerous beach ahead and told them to be more careful.
The river ahead narrowed, and the rchant ship slowed.
But after the rchant ship turned a corner, the river suddenly beca rapid. The boat swayed violently with the river.
The wheelchair Yu Niaoniao was sitting in slid out. Fortunately, Xiao Juan quickly grabbed the wheelchair and prevented her from falling with it.
Xiao Juan asked, “Are you okay?”
Yu Niaoniao gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, still in shock.
“I’m fine”.
She looked out the porthole. Both sides of the river were covered in rocky cliffs.
Wind and rain poured in through the window.
Chun Feng and Ye Yu hurriedly closed the window.
The waves hit the boat with a violent sound.
The boatn shouted in unison as they paddled desperately. The captain gripped the steering wheel tightly and tried his best to control the direction of the rchant ship, careful to avoid the hidden reefs hidden under the river.
The rchant ship rocked harder.
Wang Yue gripped the rope tightly and swayed along the ship.
The rain soaked him, but he didn’t even have ti to wipe his face.
Because he realized that the rchant ship was moving away from its predetermined route. If he followed this direction, the hull would definitely hit the rock wall on the shore.
He cried out in fear.
“We’re going to hit it. Turn around!”
The captain spun the wheel hard, but it was useless.
He roared into the wind and rain.
“The wind is too strong today. The boat is out of control!”
Xiao Juan realized that sothing was wrong and said to Yu Niaoniao.
“Stay in the room. I’ll take a look outside.”
“Yeah.”
Xiao Juan left in a hurry.
Chun Feng and Ye Yu gripped the wheelchair under Yu Niaoniao tightly to prevent her from sliding out again.
When Xiao Juan ran to the deck, he realized that Wei Liao, Yan Nanguan, and Lo Pingsha were also there.
The wind and rain hit them in the face, wetting their clothes.
But no one cared about that now.
They focused all their attention ahead.
There was a rock wall ahead. If the rchant ship continued forward, it would quickly bump into it.
In that case, the entire ship would be finished!
The captain roared at the top of his lungs, urging the boatn to work harder.
However, even though the boatn tried their best, there was still little effect.
Xiao Juan made a prompt decision and ordered the Eagle Guards to join the rowers and help them row the boat.
At this critical mont, Wei Liao did not say anything else. He asked the Sky Wolf Guards to help.
With the help of so many people, the rchant ship finally slowed down.
However, at this mont, the wind and rain suddenly beca stronger.
The river kicked up huge waves with the wind. The water hit the deck, and the ship shook violently. The people on the deck were almost thrown out. The captain shouted, “Put down all the sails!”
After asking for the location of the sail, Xiao Juan imdiately used his Qinggong and flew up the pole.
He gripped the long pole with one hand and untied the rope with the other.
Whoosh!
The sail suddenly fell.
Lo Pingsha and Yan Nanguan caught the rope below and tied it firmly to the earth hook.
At the sa ti, Wei Liao used his Qinggong to fly to another pole and lower the sail.
After all the sails were lowered, the ship finally stabilized.
The rain was still falling. and the wind had not stopped-
However, after everyone worked together, the rchant ship had changed direction and returned to its predetermined route. Seeing this, Wang Yue heaved a long sigh of relief.
He had finally escaped death.
He had never been so glad before. Fortunately, he had invited Duke Lang and the others to board the ship. Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to escape today.
However, before Wang Yue could relax for long, he suddenly heard soone shout.
“Look, there’s a ship ahead!”
Wang Yue was shocked.
The only ships that would appear here at a ti like this were those pirates. “Don’t tell the pirates are here to rob us?”
He raised his hand to wipe the water off his face and looked ahead with wide eyes.
Through the wind and rain, he saw a small ship floating ahead.
From the size of the ship, even if there were really pirates on it, there were definitely not many people. There was nothing to fear.
There were still so many Eagle Guards and Sky Wolf Guards behind Wang Yue.
He imdiately felt confident and turned to ask Xiao Juan.
“Your Highness, what do you think we should do?”
Xiao Juan also saw the small ship and casually replied, “Let’s lean over and take a look.”
If they were really pirates, he did not mind getting rid of them for the people.
The rchant ship slowly approached the small ship. Coincidentally, the wind and rain were much lighter now.
Without the impedint of the rain, not only did the rchant ship stabilize, but everyone’s vision beca much clearer.
Wang Yue craned his neck to look over, but there was no one on the small ship. He was surprised. “Why isn’t there anyone?”
The ship often went back and forth along this river. He rembered the rumors he had heard and his expression changed.
“This can’t be a ghost ship, right?”
Wang Yue was shocked. “Don’t talk nonsense. How can there be ghosts in broad daylight?!”
The captain’s face turned pale. “I heard that the ghost ship appears in storms like this. Anyone who sees it will suffer.”
Hearing his vivid description, Wang Yue was even more afraid.
Wang Yue trembled as he said to Xiao Juan.
“Your Highness, why don’t we leave that ship alone?”
Even if there were many Eagle Guards and Heavenly Wolf Guards on their ship, it was impossible for them to defeat ghosts!
Xiao Juan did not believe that there were ghosts in this world.
He asked Yan Nanguan to take a few people to see what was going on with that small ship.
Yan Nanguan imdiately accepted the order and left.
There was a spare small boat in the storage area under the rchant ship.
Yan Nanguan left in a small boat with a few Eagle Guards.
The captain reached into his pocket and took out the amulet. He pressed it tightly to his heart and kept muttering Amitabha, praying for Buddha’s blessing.
Wang Yue was scared to death, but he could not help but look at the small ship. The more he looked at it, the stranger he found it.
Perhaps it was really the ghost ship that was rumored to bring misfortune to people!
Not long after, Yan Nanguan returned with the Eagle Guards.
He was holding a blood-stained arrow.
“There’s indeed no one on that ship, but there’s a lot of blood. I brought this arrow back from that ship..”
