The more Zhao Ximin talked, the angrier he became.
Later, directly facing Ye Yuan's direction, his voice became louder.
"Little girl, has it escalated to the point of discriminating against women?
It seems that your grandpa is right. You have really learned a lot of bad things outside these years, and it’s time to come back and sharpen your temper! "
Qiao Na touched Zhao Ximin's hair and joked like the big sister next door.
"Aunt Qiao. We are the best in the family, why are you talking to outsiders? I am leading Ren this time..."
Before Zhao Ximin finished speaking, Qiao Na motioned her with her eyes not to continue.
Then he looked in the direction of Ye Yuan and whispered in her ear:
"Other than you, I am the only one who knows what happened this time. You little girl, don't talk nonsense.
Remember, neither Xu Hang nor Ye Yuan can leak this matter, you know? "
While saying this, Qiaona used her mental power to put a protective shield on the two of them.
This ensures that the sound does not leak out.
But even so, Qiao Na didn't know if Ye Yuan would hear what she said.
But there is no way, who makes this little girl be too willful?
So even if she risked being found out by Ye Yuan, she still had to warn her once.
It can be said that in Qiaona's heart, Ye Yuan's ability has been magnified countless times by her.
Although her own mental power is unable to hear sounds from a distance.
But who knows if Ye Yuan’s BT can do it?
So she was worried that Ye Yuan heard what the two said.
Even if it adds a layer of mental protection.
She still stared at Ye Yuan with her eyes.
See if the other person notices your side.
Fortunately, Ye Yuan didn't notice them at all.
But I didn't know what to say with Mu Qiang over there.
When the morning sun shines into the cabin through the glass windows.
Ye Yuan just finished his morning exercise for the day.
When she stood on the deck, she felt particularly relaxed.
This is already the fifth day since they left Yuwan Island.
During these five days, Ye Yuan didn't need to pay attention to things on the ship.
Except for the funny guy Mu Qiang who occasionally harasses him.
The others were quietly doing their own thing.
Since being ignored in front of Ye Yuan that day, Zhao Ximin has not caused trouble to him again.
Instead, he stayed in his room and played with the instruments that Ye Yuan couldn't understand at all.
I don’t know if this girl is sick.
What is the use of so many testing instruments for a good salvage operation?
But these are not what Ye Yuan should consider.
If he hadn't suspected that the He family's salvage boat was far away in Sanya, he wouldn't have even planned to drive out on the Yushui.
Just when Ye Yuan was standing on the deck enjoying a facial massage from the sea breeze.
Ding Yi's voice sounded from the intercom at his waist.
"This is the cockpit. This is the cockpit. Captain, please answer. Captain, please answer!"
"I am Ye Yuan!"
Ye Yuan picked up the intercom, not sure why Ding Yi was calling him at this time.
"Please come to the cockpit quickly! An unknown ship was found here!"
Ding Yi's words echoed throughout the entire deck through the intercom.
Also heard was Xu Hang, who was sitting aside doing morning exercises.
The two people glanced at each other, and then rushed towards the cockpit in unison.
"what's the situation?"
Ye Yuan, who entered the cockpit, asked directly.
"Not far from us, there is a ship approaching us quickly."
Ding Yi pointed at the red dot on the display and said.
As someone who has followed Ye Yuan to sea countless times, he can of course easily analyze the purpose of nearby ships through radar.
Hearing Ding Yi's warning, Ye Yuan's perception quickly spread.
Ye Yuan now senses that the detection distance in the sea has reached a terrifying distance.
Perception quickly caught the suspicious ship in Din's mouth.
From the outside, there is nothing suspicious about this cargo ship running at full speed.
But when Ye Yuan's perception reached the other side of the cargo ship, he really made a discovery.
This is a perfect pirate ship.
On the other side of the cargo ship, there were more than a dozen small speedboats hanging on the hull.
On each speedboat were pirates armed with RPGs and AKs.
The pirates were talking and laughing while smoking unknown powdery objects.
Looking at them, they didn't look like they were here to rob, more like they were here for vacation.
Ye Yuan frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
The sea area where the Royal Water is sailing at this moment is the vast sea area between Saipan and the Hawaiian Islands.
Logically speaking, there has been no news of pirate activities here.
How could such a group of people appear out of thin air?
Even without thinking about it, he knew that these pirates were coming towards him.
There is no way, because there is only one fishing boat like Ye Yuan in the sea area of hundreds of nautical miles.
If these pirates were passing by, Ye Yuan would not believe it even to death.
Ye Yuan made an estimate in his mind.
At the current speed of the Waterbender.
That pirate mothership disguised as a cargo ship.
It only takes an hour to catch up with yourself.
If we don't take countermeasures in advance now, the next thing will be a little difficult to handle.
If Ye Yuan was the only one on the boat, he would have countless ways to deal with these guys who don't know the heights of the world.
Unfortunately, there are so many outsiders on the ship.
Ye Yuan would not reveal his trump card unless absolutely necessary.
He glanced at Xu Hang, who was still frowning and staring at the monitor.
Ye Yuan rolled his eyes:
"Do you see anything?"
"According to the radar, this ship is most likely coming towards us."
Xu Hang's words were a little gloomy.
"You mean we met pirates?"
Ye Yuan asked deliberately pretending to be surprised.
"Are you pretending to be confused here?
I don't believe that based on your experience, you can't tell what the other party's purpose is. "
Xu Hang rolled his eyes at Ye Yuan and said angrily.
"I'm not a god, so I can't know everything. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be pirates in this sea area!"
Ye Yuan curled his lips, feeling slightly bored.
But throughout the entire conversation between the two of them, no one showed any concern.
"The ones coming for us must be pirates? Your thinking is enough.
Don’t forget what we came out to do this time, it’s normal to be stared at, right?”
Xu Hang's words made Ye Yuan raise his eyebrows.
"In other words, these people are here for you? Then you can just take care of the rest!"
Ye Yuan said easily.
It seems that these people are not taken seriously at all.
"I think most of these people's goals are Zhao Ximin or you, and they should have nothing to do with me."
The corners of Xu Hang's mouth turned up and he said playfully.
"What? What did you say?"
Ye Yuan's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
"It's very simple. If it's because of the stone pillar, then they can wait until we salvage it before showing up. If they show up so early, it's obvious that they are not coming for the stone pillar!"
Having said this, Xu Hang spread his hands.
Looking at that expression, it was obviously telling Ye Yuan, can't you think of such a simple question?
"Then you can't say you came for me, right?
I am just a fisherman, and I have no grudge against these pirates.
You can't say that they are interested in my fishing boat, right? "
Ye Yuan did not follow Xu Hang's logic, but pretended to be confused here.
"That's not necessarily the case. If their ultimate goal is to have the stone pillar to themselves, then it's really possible that they are coming after you.
Think about it, you are the main force in salvaging the stone pillar this time. If they get you, will they be able to find the stone pillar? "
Xu Hang was still speculating based on his own logical thinking.
"I'll go! How did they know this? Are your families too unreliable? Did you leak the news so quickly?"
Ye Yuan said speechlessly. He had already roughly guessed the reason for the sudden appearance of this group of pirates.
"After all, people talk a lot, and it is inevitable that some information will be leaked. Otherwise, how could the Mu family find you?
Since the Mu family can know this, it's not surprising that others know, right?
These people do not dare to attack us at home, so it is understandable that they arrange to attack us here.
After all, we are completely helpless here. If I were in command, I would choose to take action in this sea area.
It’s just that I can’t figure out why they didn’t wait for us to return before taking action. Wouldn’t that be safer? "
Xu Hang frowned, thinking about something he couldn't figure out.
"It makes sense. If you choose me now and help them salvage it, or if you wait for us to salvage it and rob it directly, the one who chooses the thicker one will be chosen.
Are they not afraid that I will use water to escape?
How could someone with accurate knowledge of our whereabouts not understand my abilities in the water?
This thing is indeed a bit weird~! "
When Ye Yuan said this, Liu revealed a half-smiling look deep in his eyes, staring straight at Xu Hang.
Because just now, when he raised his doubts, he noticed a flash of unnaturalness on Xu Hang's face.
From this point, Ye Yuan can be sure that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
But he still doesn't know what role Xu Hang plays in it.
If Xu Hang wants to harm himself.
Ye Yuan would not believe it.
If the Xu family really wanted to do that, they wouldn't be stupid enough to do it at sea.
Others don't know, Xu Hang still doesn't know what he is capable of in the sea?
Not to mention one pirate ship, even if there are dozens or hundreds of pirate ships, if you want to keep yourself, you can't do it, okay?
If it was really the Xu family, then Ye Yuan could only say that they were kicked in the head by a donkey before they came up with such a stupid method.
But since it wasn't their handiwork, why did Xu Hang flash that expression?
This is something Ye Yuan can't understand.
Unless it was information about those stone pillars, both Xu Hang and Mu Qiang had hidden something from themselves.
Think again of Zhao Ximin's sudden illogical behavior.
Ye Yuan is 80% sure that the stone pillars in his own space are not as simple as Xu Hang and the others said.
How can these families pay so much attention to just a simple deed?
It can also attract unknown forces that are willing to offend multiple families and attack his group.
This is getting more and more interesting.
Ye Yuan secretly made a decision in his heart.
That means no matter who sent this group of pirates, or whether it has anything to do with the stone pillars to be salvaged.
In short, he will definitely not take out all the remaining eight stone pillars this time.
Not only that, he also wanted to use this time on the road to take a closer look at those stone pillars.
Is there something important that I missed before?
But before that, we still have to deal with the pirates on the opposite side.
As for not being able to take action?
Aren't Xu Hang and Qiao Na here?
I didn't look at Xu Hang from beginning to end, except for his somewhat serious expression.
Didn't you show any concern?
If this guy had no backup plan, he wouldn't believe it even if he beat Ye Yuan to death.
I just don't know if these pirates have the ability to force out Xu Hang's backhand.
He didn't believe that Xu Hang was not prepared for such an important salvage this time.
"Brother Yuan! Brother Hang! Are there pirates?"
Just when there was a short period of silence in the cockpit.
But Mu Qiang pushed the door open and ran in.
"Who told you there were pirates?"
Ye Yuan asked curiously when he saw this guy.
"Uh... I heard it through the intercom you put in the entertainment cabin. Didn't Ding Yi say that an unknown ship was approaching?"
Mu Qiang blinked his big confused eyes and said.
"Who told you that an unknown ship must be a pirate ship?"
Ye Yuan looked at Mu Qiang and asked curiously.
"Uh. Isn't it a pirate ship? Is it a ghost ship?"
Mu Qiang's eyes lit up even more.
But his words left Ye Yuan completely speechless.
What kind of brain circuit is this?
He really didn't know what to say about this guy.
"Okay, you guys can talk, I'm going back to rest.
We agreed that I would be responsible for salvaging and searching.
The rest is up to you.
Now that we have encountered an unknown ship, you should be responsible for it! "
After saying that, Ye Yuan left the cockpit without giving Xu Hang a chance to speak.
The purpose of his doing this was to see what Xu Hang and the others were going to do.
At the same time, his perception centered on the Waterbender and quickly spread to the surroundings.
In his opinion, since the Zhao family dared to let a girl named Zhao Ximin come out with their fishing boat.
That's how much Mr. Zhao dotes on this girl.
There is no way someone without security is following.
Thinking back to Xu Hang's expression just now, apart from his somewhat unsightly expression, he didn't show any worry at all.
There is only one answer.
That is, when they go out to sea this time, there are not just two or three small fish on the boat.
Maybe there were more security personnel following him somewhere that he didn't notice.
It's just that I haven't thought about it these days, so I haven't noticed it.
As for why the radar on the fishing boat didn’t detect it?
Just kidding, if these people want to hide themselves, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake to crack a civilian fishing boat radar?
Even Ye Yuan suspected that Xu Hang had built some kind of positioning system on his fishing boat.
Otherwise, with your own perception, even if you don't search carefully, you won't get anything.
Unless those who follow keep a certain distance from their own fishing boats. (End of chapter)
