The Little Ancestor Teaches You How To Live-Chapter 853: The Death of Chu Heng (6)

Chu Heng cursed angrily, "You old bastard, you damn dog, come back here! Did you hear me? Are you deaf?"

The old fisherman ignored Chu Heng’s curses and kept rowing on his own.

Before long, the old fisherman and his lifeboat had disappeared without a trace.

Chu Heng turned back to Chu Yanxi and asked, "What do we do now? The old fool is gone, who’s going to take us to the island? The Sea Ganoderma is right in front of us! That’s our bargaining chip with the Lu Family!"

"You go drive!" Chu Yanxi commanded.

"I don’t know how to steer a boat!"

"You don’t know, but you will drive! Do you expect me in my condition to do it? I can’t even reach the helm!" Chu Yanxi yelled at Chu Heng.

Chu Heng, having no choice, walked over and tried to control the boat.

After much difficulty, he had just managed to grasp some notion of how to navigate when he noticed a large amount of water gushing from underneath the boat.

Chu Yanxi saw it too, but she was stubborn and still wanted to try moving the boat a little further.

"Can’t we move it a bit more? Only fifty or sixty meters left! We are almost there!"

"It’s no use, the boat’s sinking! We need to leave!" Chu Heng gave up completely.

As he spoke, he rummaged for life jackets in the corner.

Chu Yanxi, unwilling to give up, stamped her foot then ran over and picked up a life jacket to put on.

Father and daughter both jumped into the water together.

Both could swim and with life jackets on, the island was within reach.

In their view, swimming there was not too big of an issue.

As Chu Yanxi was swimming, she suddenly heard Chu Heng’s cries for help from behind.

"Help! It feels like something has got hold of my foot."

Chu Yanxi turned around to see Chu Heng floundering in the water, struggling to keep his head above the surface.

"Xiaoxi, save me! Hurry and save me!" Chu Heng cried out to Chu Yanxi for help.

Chu Yanxi stared at Chu Heng blankly.

After a long while, instead of moving forward to help, she turned around and swam away faster.

The Qin family of three, the two members of the Lu Family’s elder generation, and Butler Zhang and He Beimu shared a joyful coconut feast.

Afterward, Old Master Lu and the two elder members of the Qin family lay on beach chairs, resting and chatting leisurely.

The two children went further down the beach with their two bodyguards to pick up seashells.

Susu ran barefoot ahead, with Lu Zhanyu following behind her. Occasionally, when the wheels got stuck in the sand or they encountered an impassable spot, Butler Zhang would come over to help.

Suddenly, Susu stopped.

"What’s wrong?" Lu Zhanyu asked with confusion.

"There are so many lights over there." Susu pointed towards the sea in the distance.

Lu Zhanyu looked over and indeed saw many lights.

Upon careful observation, he realized they were ship lights.

"Butler Zhang, is it normal for people to go out to sea this late?" Lu Zhanyu inquired.

"This..." Butler Zhang stared at the sea for a moment and guessed, "Perhaps they are fishermen out for a night catch, but it could also be some kind of accident."

"Have someone go and ask," Lu Zhanyu said.

"Certainly," Butler Zhang promptly instructed his men to find out more.

They soon came back with information.

"They say a father and daughter took a fishing boat to YaShark Bay late at night. YaShark Bay is known in this area for its hidden reefs. It’s unclear why they went there at night, but it’s rumored they might be looking for Sea Ganoderma."

Recently, due to the Lu Family’s reward offer, indeed quite a few seekers of medicine have come to the Southern Sea in search of Sea Ganoderma.
