Huo Jin had tried to stop Huo Yin, but Huo Yin, obsessed with money, wouldn't listen to a word of advice. Instead, he complained about Huo Jin behind his back, causing Huo Jin considerable losses.
Seeing Lu Qingyan's current vulnerable state, he couldn't help but ask, "Then, are the others in your clan alright?"
Lu Qingyan shook her head: "It seems like nothing's wrong now. We rarely eat fish from the sea anymore, so there shouldn't be any more accidents like this."
Xiao Hong silently recalled the grilled fish that the three of them had eaten the night before, and sighed inwardly, "Sister Xiao Rou's story is really well-crafted."
The elder who died suddenly was because he had eaten something he shouldn't have. While the fish in the sea could be considered a reason, it was definitely not the real cause.
Huo Jin struggled to stand up, but he overestimated his current physical condition and almost fell on the beach.
Fortunately, Lu Qingyan caught him quickly and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Huo Jin gave a wry smile: "It's nothing, it's just that the injury is too severe."
Huo Yinke is truly ruthless, just like his mother. Luckily, he's safe and sound this time; he just doesn't know how his family is doing.
"Do you know how to get to Lianjiang City in Country A?" Huo Jin didn't know where this place was, so how would he know the way back?
Xiaoxiao hurriedly replied, "Of course I don't know, but you can ask the dolphins. They're very clever at finding their way around."
Huo Jin simply thought Xiaoxiao was being innocent and didn't suspect anything: "Dolphins are smart, but they might not be able to understand what you're saying."
Xiao Hong said, "We plan to build our own small boat to go out into the world. If we meet other people on the way, we can ask them for directions."
This was Lu Qingyan's original plan; they had already prepared all the materials and simply left them in the woods over there.
Huo Jin also felt that this was the only way to go, so the three mermaids' exploration journey was joined by a human.
This has both advantages and disadvantages.
The biggest advantage, however, is that the three of them won't have to exert much effort. With Huo Jin, a grown man, taking the lead in shipbuilding, things will be much easier for them. Having an acquaintance to guide them once they reach land will also be much more convenient.
The downside is that they now have to be even more careful not to let him discover their identities.
As time has passed, the mermaid's tail will never be easily revealed. No time limit or splashing water can make them show their true form.
They will never reveal their true colors unless they want others to see them.
However, they have a very high water requirement. After becoming human, they need to drink a lot of water every day, otherwise their bodies will become very dry and they will have difficulty breathing.
The boat that the four of them were about to leave on was soon completed. Actually, it was more like a raft than a boat, because it was made especially large for four people.
It must be said that the four of them were quite lucky. After drifting on the water for a day, they encountered a large ship. This ship was looking for Huo Jin, and the person on board was Chang Yixing, Huo Jin's capable henchman. Even if everyone thought Huo Jin was long dead, he would never believe it unless he saw the body.
Since the boss disappeared, Chang Yixing hasn't had a good night's sleep. He's been guarding the boss's properties, trying to find out where the boss is.
