Chapter 151: The History of Two Families I found his conclusion utterly absurd, so I repeated his words back to him. "You're saying that what's under our boat isn't a tomb, but a graveyard, right?" "Exactly!" He Yu slapped the table with conviction. I gave a disdainful smile and turned back to fiddle with my silk threads. "Listen to yourself and tell me if that makes any sense. Everyone knows that undersea graveyards are formed by the influence of wind, tides, and ocean currents. This isn't some…-

Chapter 150: Shipwreck Graveyard And so, I stayed up until the middle of the night on the bed, clutching the casket. I eventually drifted off to sleep while the thread was still inside the box, the paper still in my arms. The moment I closed my eyes, exhaustion swept over me like a tidal wave. It seemed noisy outside, but I was dead to the world and heard nothing at all. The only time I regained a flicker of consciousness was in the morning when Lu A'yao pulled the casket from my arms. I startled…

Chapter 149: The Locksmith I went over and kicked He Yu a couple of times. He just rolled over, mumbled something in his sleep, and kept on sleeping. Unable to wake him, I could only turn around and signal Lu A'yao to help me carry him into the cabin. But when I turned, what met my eyes was Fourth Brother's extremely grim face. Fourth Brother's expression startled me. I quickly set the beer He Yu had given me down on the ship's railing. It took me a moment to remember that I'm an adult now; having a…

Chapter 148: Hidden Secrets I caught a useful bit of information, so I tossed away the skin of my second persimmon and looked at White Immortal. "Why? Why sew his face? Since you were the one who sewed the porcelain shards onto him, you should know what those charms mean, right?" White Immortal gave a mysterious smile. "This isn't the kind of thing a kid should hear. These are hidden secrets. If you want to know, you'll have to give me something in return." He reached out and rubbed two fingers…

Chapter 147: Meeting the White Immortal Again The White Immortal was not as disheveled as he had been when we first met. He was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, his hair had been cut much shorter, and his stubble was shaved quite clean. He looked like a completely different person, or at least like an intellectual, appearing quite young and refreshed. But even if his face, once cleaned up, was enough to charm thousands, I didn't actually want to deal with him. I especially didn't want to see him…

Chapter 146: The Pier By the same logic, if Liu Sanshui's body wasn't inside the tomb, there was a high probability that he had survived or been swept away by the sea. Many things could happen in the ocean, so I didn't dare to make any arbitrary guesses on that point. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Fourth Brother starting to walk back toward the car. I quickly gave He Yu a hard kick, telling him to pack up. "Hurry up! Don't let Fourth Brother see these things. If he catches you, he'll…

Chapter 145: Overlapping Areas I caught his underlying meaning: "You think my Fourth Brother is connected to the boss who had Liang Zicheng send me the message?" Before Lu A'yao could answer, I looked at him and denied it: "Impossible. My Fourth Brother isn't that kind of person. He would never drag innocent people into his affairs, let alone commit murder to silence someone." "Then how do you explain such a coincidence?" Lu A'yao suddenly smiled and stood up straight. I instinctively took half a…

Chapter 144: A Part of the Truth? I grew interested, but from a different perspective, so I continued to press him. "Your Lu family has an ancestral hall? Is it in Nanjing too? A hall should have a family tree, right? I've never seen one of those in my life. Why haven't you ever mentioned this before?" Lu A'yao didn't answer, so Fourth Brother spoke up sternly. "No matter how close you are to him, you've only known him for six months. Why are you always prying into these random things? We aren't…
