"What the hell!"

Hai hai slapped Hu Guangzu's head and scolded him, "What the f * ck are you talking about, Water Ghost?"

Hu Guangzu's face paled, his entire body shivered: It really is the Water Ghost, I'm not lying to you, if you don't believe me, come and see!

After saying that, I walked towards the cabin. I looked at Hai Yang and suddenly thought about the radio. I thought to myself, "Did someone else get caught by the radio and became a broadcaster?"

We hastily returned to the cabin, only to see Zhu Yingqiong squatting on the floor, looking at something.

"What's wrong?"

I walked over to ask, and Hu Guangzu said in grief, "Old Man Chuan was dragged away by the Water Ghost!"

I couldn't make sense of what I was hearing. I looked around and really didn't see Old Man Chuan at all. After getting on the ship for a while, the ship stopped. If the Old Man Chuan wasn't in the cockpit, he should be sleeping in the cabin.

I asked Hu Guangzu: "What Water Ghost?"

Hu Guangzu timidly said: "Yes, it was the Water Ghost that dragged Chen Feng away, and now it has dragged Old Man Chuan away as well. The floor is covered with the footprints left behind by the Water Ghost."

Zhu Yingqiong seemed to have discovered something as she gestured with her hand. I avoided her figure and looked at the ground, and with that single glance, my entire body was covered in goosebumps!

There was a row of water stains on the floor of the cabin, and these stains came from outside the cabin, but in the water stains, I could clearly see a row of footprints. What made me horrified was that this row of footprints was only half the size of my palm, they were the footprints of a two or three year old child, it was actually identical to the one that appeared in Fourth Uncle's house before!

My heart suddenly thumped. Could it be that this fella who didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost had chased me to the Salwin River?

Hai Yang's face paled as well. I told him about everything from before. The moment he saw the footprints, he immediately associated it with it.

"What the hell is going on?"

I swallowed my saliva, my voice hoarse as I asked. Zhu Yingqiong didn't say anything, but Hu Guangzu said in a tearful voice: "We entered the cabin and the radio started to ring again, and it was still Chen Feng's scream for help inside. I followed my big sister to look for the Old Man Chuan, but I didn't see him in the cockpit.

I asked in surprise, "Have you searched the entire ship?"

Zhu Yingqiong said in an extremely calm voice, "The boat isn't big, and you can see through it with a glance. There are also footprints in the cabin, so Chen Feng and him must have been dragged away by the Water Ghost!"

When we followed the footprints in the water out of the cabin, we could see that the footprints had extended all the way up to the plywood, which meant that the person who left the footprints was the one who climbed out from the water. Furthermore, it was a child's footprints, which was why Hu Guangzu said there's a Water Ghost!

Just as I was about to shine the flashlight into the water, Hai Yang grabbed my hand and said, "I'm sure that the person is still on the boat. If we search carefully, there's only one row of footprints, which means even if there is a Water Ghost, it hasn't left yet!"

I then looked at the floor again, there are indeed only marks of people entering the cabin, there aren't any footprints left, so we immediately went back to the cabin, and started to rummage around, but there was a living person, the cabin was very small, we could see everything around us, there was no place to hide, not to mention the Water Ghost, we did not even see a shadow of a person!

Hai Yang smacked her lips. "Damn, this is weird. Did a living person grow wings and fly into the sky?"

Hu Guangzu curled up in the corner of the boat cabin, his eyes were unfocused, and kept muttering to himself: "He must have been dragged away by Water Ghost, it must be Water Ghost!"

The first time I saw him, he appeared at the Fourth Uncle's house. I had seen his figure before, he was definitely not a child, but the footprints and the voice of a child made me unable to forget him, even if he followed me to the Salwen River, the one who had to deal with him should still be me. Why would he look for Chen Feng and the Old Man Chuan for no reason?

Could it be that both Chen Feng and the Old Man Chuan found out about him, which was why he kept his mouth shut?

Chen Feng was not dead, his cries for help even came from the radio. Moreover, if it was really that guy who took Chen Feng away, how could he explain about the radio?

We searched the entire body of the ship, but could not find any clues. We don't even know how to sail the ship, and if we don't find the Old Man Chuan, we don't even know how to return.

I immediately calmed down and said, "This way, I will go with Hai Shui to the cockpit to search around. Hu Guangzu, you and Zhu Yingqiong will go along with us to the cabin to search. The boat had stopped long ago, you guys can take a look at the water."

Hu Guangzu curled up in the corner and anxiously shouted: "I'm not going, I'll just hide inside, and if I go out, I'll be captured by the Water Ghost."

Zhu Yingqiong coldly looked at him, and directly said: "I'll look for it myself!"

After saying that, she took out a small electric baton from her backpack and walked out of the cabin. Hai Yang and I ran to the cockpit, but the cockpit of this cargo ship was extremely simple and crude, so at a glance, we could see everything except for a few places that seemed like they could hide people.

I thought it was weird. Even if that monster really caught up, it couldn't be a swimmer, right?

Hai Yang suddenly asked, "Where is the warehouse?"

I frowned and said, "Bullsh * t! This ship doesn't have any warehouses!"

Hai Yang scratched the back of her head. "What about the equipment you brought with you?"

I pointed to the left side of the boat and said, "I previously rented an inflatable rubber dinghy to prepare to board the Wild Mountain. All of my equipment is on the rubber dinghy. There are no hidden people there."

Hai Yang anxiously shouted, "I'll go take a look! If we don't get our equipment taken away, then we'll really have nowhere to go!"

I was stunned for a moment in the cockpit, but just as I was about to return to the cabin, Hai Shui suddenly rushed back. With excitement in her eyes, she pulled me and said, "Sanjin, let's go, I'll bring you to see the legendary Water Ghost, f * ck, if it wasn't for my intelligence wanting to look at the equipment, I wouldn't even have noticed it."

I thought to myself, could it be that Water Ghost is hiding on top of the inflatable rubber raft?

He then asked softly, "Did you really see Water Ghost?"

Hai Yang said in a low voice, "I was just looking for trouble. I wanted to take a night out after I finished reading, but I didn't expect to see the Water Ghost. Follow me."

After saying that, he carefully pulled me to the left side of the ship. There was an empty spot on the left side where I rented a rubber raft and swimming circles. I was wondering what kind of place it was, when I suddenly saw a figure sneakily walk over from the side of the board.

My heart tightened as I hastily squinted my eyes to take a look. I was stunned with just a glance!

I saw this figure tiptoeing to the side of the ship, then reaching out her hand to grab onto a rope. As she pulled on it, she turned her head back, causing Hai Yang and I to hurriedly lower our bodies to hide. But the moment the figure turned around, I saw her face, it was actually Zhu Yingqiong!

Why was she here? Could it be to look for Chen Feng and Old Man Chuan?

Wait, it's just looking for someone, what's the point of pulling the rope?

In my heart, I was extremely suspicious, so Hai Yang whispered into my ear, "Sanjin, I said that I am a lucky general and you do not believe that I have solved the mystery of the Water Ghost. Look carefully, the Fake Foreigner is sneaky, and she must be the person who appeared at Fourth Master Xing's house that day."

Hearing Hai Yang's words, I immediately felt that Zhu Yingqiong's back was indeed somewhat similar to the figure on that night. However, it was possible that the figure on that night was disguised as Fourth Uncle, so I wasn't too sure.

I looked at Zhu Yingqiong's feet again. They're similar to an adult woman's feet, they shouldn't be child's footprints right?

I could only watch in disbelief as Zhu Yingqiong pulled up the rope. Only then did I realize that there was a button hanging on the other end of the rope, and a big backpack was pulled out as well. It was actually my backpack.

After Zhu Yingqiong turned around to check that there was no one around, she opened my backpack and started to rummage through for something. I asked Hai Yang in bewilderment, "How did you know she was going to rummage through my things?"

Hai Yang said in a low voice, "I just saw her rummaging through my bag. After all, my bag is at the cabin door. She saw that you and I know each other, so she thought we were on the same team. So she came to check on you after she finished rummaging through my bag."

I also felt it was strange, but even if I rummaged through her bag, I could only assume that she was a thief and not that weird figure.

Just as I was feeling confused, Zhu Yingqiong didn't find anything in my backpack, and she had even used a rope to carefully put her backpack down. Just when I thought she was about to leave, suddenly, I saw something that I still couldn't forget!

Zhu Yingqiong suddenly took something out from the bag that she carried around with him. I took a closer look and discovered that it was a pair of children's shoes!

She put the shoes on the ground, put her hands in them, turned over, and stood on her head and feet. Then she walked with her hands, moving gently toward the cockpit.

I was completely dumbfounded by what I saw. After so long, the so called footprints of a child's shoe was actually caused by this!

Hai Yang said complacently: "Previously, she rummaged through my bag and left like this. She purposely created the Water Ghost's footprints just to hide herself."

But why did Zhu Yingqiong do it? What was her purpose?

Or was it because of the string of numbers Xu Jun had left on me?

She obviously recognized me, but she didn't show any signs of it. She pretended to be a passerby as she approached me. Could it be that she wanted to take something from me?

I suddenly remembered that she was Chinese and not a photographer at all. Could she be Charles's woman?

Thinking of this, I immediately rushed out to grab Zhu Yingqiong and ask what exactly she wanted to do. What happened to my grandfather while he was in Wild Mountain?

But Hai Yang pulled me back and said: "Don't alert her, this Fake Foreigner is very cunning, she must be related to Charles, since she is pretending not to know that you are near us, we will do it, let's see what she wants!"

I panted heavily, admitting that Hai Yang's words were reasonable. I was indeed impulsive a moment ago, but then I suddenly thought of something, and pulled Hai hai along to ask: "That's not right, if Zhu Yingqiong is Water Ghost, then how did she disappear? "Are they a team?"

Hai Yang shook her head. "Who knows. Anyway, the people on the ship aren't simple."

We returned to the cabin, Hu Guangzu's eyes were red and his body was trembling, seeing that we entered, he asked if we found the Old Man Chuan, I shook my head, Zhu Yingqiong had already returned to the cabin with an expressionless face, before I did not know, I thought that he was terrified because of Chen Feng's disappearance, but now it seems that this woman is the real Shadow Emperor!

We sat in the cabin without making a sound, and as time passed, no one slept. After all, before we broke off our relationship, the Water Ghost was still there.

It's already 5 in the morning. If it wasn't for Old Man Chuan's disappearance last night, I'm afraid that Hu Guangzu would have already arrived at the Mu Sis Town and we would have gotten Wild Mountain by now.

I lit a cigarette and walked out of the cabin, but when I raised my head, I was stunned. I saw that outside the cabin, it was still pitch black and there wasn't even dawn!

That's not right. It's 5 in the morning. Even if it's not bright, you should be able to see the light of dawn, right? Why was it as dark as the midnight night?

Could the weather be like this?

I shook my head and returned back to the cabin. At this moment, I saw that both Zhu Yingqiong and Hu Guangzu had fallen asleep, since they would eventually get tired after a night of refreshed energy. I asked Hai Yang, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

Hai Yang whispered, "I slept for a few hours last night. You go to sleep first, I've got my eyes on Fake Foreigner!"

I didn't refute, and because I was really sleepy, I fell asleep. This sleep of mine lasted for almost four whole hours, and I was woken up by the shaking of the ocean. When I opened my eyes, Hai Yang said to me with a pale face, "Sanjin, wake up, something big is f * cking happening!"

Just as he woke up, his mind was still in a daze. He then asked, "What happened?"

Hai Yang swallowed her saliva and then said in fear, "Damn, the sky won't light up soon!"
