Merchant of the Underworld

"What's the problem?" I asked a little strangely.

"If there is something, as long as you get it, you will have endless wealth and rights, which hundreds of millions of ordinary people will not be able to achieve after hundreds of lifetimes of struggle. But once you get it, you will lose the person you love most, Being separated from her forever and never being able to see her again for the rest of our lives, are you still willing to get it?" William said slowly.

"In my eyes, the person I love the most is the most precious thing. Nothing can replace it, let alone give it up." I answered without hesitation.

After listening to what I said, William was silent for a long time, then gently shook his head and said: "It's a pity that I understood it too late!"

As he said that, he wiped his face, and the tears on his face had frozen into small ice particles.

That sturgeon nightmare has troubled his family for hundreds of years. Seeing that action is imminent and the truth is about to be revealed, shouldn't he be filled with joy? Why did I suddenly feel so emotional?

What on earth did he remember?

"Vater!" At this moment, someone yelled something from behind.

I looked back and saw that it was Lina. She put on a tight-fitting diving suit, ran over with a big bag and a helmet in her hand, smiling.

William was afraid that his daughter would see his sad look just now, so he immediately changed it to a smiling face.

Lina hugged him like a little girl, William gently stroked her hair, and the two talked cordially in German.

"Okay, Lina." William patted her shoulder and said, "It's very impolite for us to speak German in front of Mr. Zhang. Go and get ready."

Then, he kissed her gently on the forehead and said, "God bless you, my child."

Lina nodded happily, and then said to me: "Mr. Zhang, come with me to change into your diving suit. Everyone else has already changed. When Assistant Li went to call you, he found that you had already come out first. .”

I responded and turned to look at William: "Sixth Master said he is not feeling well and may not come out soon."

"Okay, let him rest more." William nodded tolerantly.

As for abalone, I'm really embarrassed to say...

Following Lina off the deck, she turned a few turns and came to a long and narrow room.

Parked in the middle was a four-meter-long, oval-shaped small submarine, with several crew members wearing glasses and orange overalls doing final inspections.

Fan Chong, Jiang Dayu and the others have already changed into their diving suits. One was squatting there smoking, and the other was staring at the submarine curiously.

Liang Mingli was holding a big backpack and leaning on the submarine, dozing off in a daze. He always looked like he hadn't woken up. It's been several days, and I've never seen those little eyes. Fully opened.

Lina glanced at the diving suit thrown at his feet and whispered: "Master Liang doesn't like diving suits very much. He said wearing this... is even more awkward and he doesn't need it."

Actually, I think it's not that Liang Mingli doesn't want to wear it, but that he can't wear it.

Although this diving suit has complete numbers, it is all built according to the body types of European and American people. Fan Chong, who is tall and big, is well-dressed. Jiang Dayu wears the smallest size, which is a bit baggy. But Liang Mingli, who is less than two meters tall, if he really wants to put it on, it may not be much higher than the waistband of his pants.

The two of us waited in front of the locker room for a while, and Parker, who had changed into a diving suit, also came out. When he opened the door and saw me, his eyes were a little dodgey, and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he just revealed an extremely embarrassed expression. smile.

After changing clothes and coming out, the crew members who checked also reported to Lina in German, apparently saying that everything was normal.

After entering the cockpit, Lina arranged two extremely simple positions for Fan Chong and me, and then started the power unit.

"You girl is amazing, you can actually drive this big iron fish!" Fan Chong said with envy.

Lina smiled noncommittally, and then said to me: "Wait a little longer for Parker, he will help the support team call in some fish."

"Calling fish?"

"Yes." Lina nodded and said: "He is a zoologist. He can summon the sturgeons. Then Mrs. Shen and Wizard Hill can use these sturgeons to open the restriction! As soon as the passage is opened, we can set off .”

As she spoke, she turned on various instruments very skillfully. Various indicator lights kept flashing on and off, and the densely packed dials kept rotating.

Silk...silk...

Suddenly, there was a quick intake of breath from behind me.

I turned around and saw Liang Mingli leaning on the back seat, breathing heavily.

I saw him sucking deeply into his stomach, but he didn't even breathe out.

His belly also swelled, as if he was pregnant. Then, his whole body gained weight, his skin gradually became extraordinarily transparent, and his whole body became swollen.

The ruins are seventy or eighty meters underwater, but this guy not only doesn't wear a diving suit, he doesn't even bring an oxygen bottle. If it were an ordinary person, it would be no different from committing suicide.

But after all, Liang Mingli is a master of femininity, and his nickname is Zhenhe Taisui, so he should have some unique skills.

Look at this, he is saving oxygen in advance!

Lina kept adjusting the equipment and also asked us to test the communication equipment.

After a while, Parker opened the hatch and climbed up.

There was only one seat left next to me in the cabin. He looked at me, hesitated, and sat down, but his eyes looked a little sad and lost, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. After sitting down, he turned his head to one side, not even daring to look at me.

I suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling of guilt. Did I misunderstand him?

"Is the passage open?" Lina turned around and asked.

"It may take a while. Hill said that the passage will automatically recombine. In order to prevent the restriction from being broken and any accidents occur, it cannot be completely destroyed. After all, we have to leave an escape route for us. Therefore, the time left for us to pass is only For 30 seconds, he and Mrs. Shen are working hard to break the last seal." Pike replied while buckling his helmet.

"Attention Deep Diving One, attention Deep Diving One!"

William's voice suddenly sounded in the cabin, and his tone was extremely serious.

"There are still ten minutes until the channel opens and seven minutes until we enter the water. Please prepare in advance!"
