Chapter 635 Request for Help
"Yes! Very familiar." Kabugongsang also picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking at Bai Yangfan, "I heard that you are a good doctor, can you help me take a look?"
This request was abrupt, but as a doctor, Bai Yangfan had no reason to refuse.
Without saying a word, she stretched out her hand to feel Kabugonsang's pulse. After a moment, she switched to the other hand. After feeling both hands, she basically determined the cause of the disease.
"Since you are familiar with Robert, whether it is true or not, as a doctor, I must tell you the truth. You have been poisoned by a colorless and odorless poison."
Kabugonsang wasn't surprised at all, and his eyes revealed admiration. "You're right. I just want to know when this poison was injected into my body? Why didn't I know about it?"
As they were talking, the butler came in and reported, "Master! Everything that needs to be done is done. What about the ship?"
Kabugonsang didn't even raise his head and continued drinking his tea: "Have someone clean it up."
The butler glanced at Bai Yangfan and left.
Bai Yangfan was also observing the butler carefully. When she saw him look at her, she immediately met his gaze. The butler didn't dare to look directly at her, and then lowered his head with a wink.
Why wouldn't a housekeeper dare meet her eyes? Bai Yangfan frowned slightly, but said nothing, still drinking his tea with his head down.
Lu Jingheng observed this scene and followed the butler's back with his eyes.
The butler seemed to have noticed something and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
The moment he looked up, Kabugonsang caught Lu Jingheng's expression, turned around to look at the butler, and his heart suddenly shook.
Immediately, many unclear things that were floating in my mind suddenly found answers.
He smiled bitterly and looked at Bai Yangfan: "Eighteen's eyes are sharp. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea with you, all the doubts in my heart have been solved."
"Oh!" Bai Yangfan deliberately dragged out the last word. "How do you mean?"
"If it's him, I really can't defend myself." Kabugonsang sipped his tea leisurely, his voice indifferent, "My ancestors were pirates, the pirates who lived here.
At that time, this place did not belong to any country. Whoever occupied it would own it.
Later, a very powerful woman came to the island. Her name was Lan'er."
Having said that, Kabugonsang looked up at the change in Bai Yangfan's expression. Seeing that she had no reaction as usual, he frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed.
Was he wrong? Wasn't Eighteen here for his ancestor's golden ship?
Seeing him looking at his wife, Lu Jingheng was obviously displeased and blurted out: "We all know what you said. Later, Lan'er destroyed the pirates and established her own regime, which she named the Li Dynasty.
You only tell us things we don't know. What happened to your ancestors? Did they die or escape?"
Kabugongsang nodded slightly and continued, "My ancestor died, and before he died, he entrusted his biological son to a loyal servant, who sent him off the island and back to his hometown.
He was unwilling to let his accumulated wealth go to outsiders, so he loaded a golden ship that he had built long ago and some jewels on it and sank it to the bottom of the sea.
Lest future generations lose their way, the exact address and location were marked on a parchment scroll. The scroll remained in the hands of the faithful servant until it was passed on to the master when he grew up.
It has been passed down to me. Originally, I didn't intend to salvage the golden ship, but I just wanted to know who was plotting against me.
At this point, Bai Yangfan understood: "As expected of Robert's military advisor, you used a piece of false information to lure out the people who wanted to harm you. And you killed them all in one fell swoop. Your mind and methods are not simple."
Kabugongsang could hear the sarcasm in Bai Yangfan's Chinese, but he still smiled bitterly: "There's nothing I can do. Robert and I have similar backgrounds. My grandfather had two brothers who founded their own gang together.
My grandfather was the eldest son, so naturally he held the parchment scroll. My second grandfather was not happy about it and proposed to divide the family property, and the two brothers went their separate ways.
The second grandfather was not good at business and was devoured by others. Even though his son tried hard to rise up, he still couldn't make it into the top five gangs.
After my grandfather passed away, my father took over. He was indecisive by nature and was controlled by my second grandfather and his son, who took away his power.
I was forced to seek refuge abroad, and that was when I met Robert. We hit it off immediately and felt sympathy for each other. We joined forces and established our own power.
Before he died, my father gave me the parchment scroll and told me the secret. But my cousin found out and sent people to hunt me down and take what I had.
Lu Jingheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Did your cousin send the salvage team?"
"yes!"
Bai Yangfan was speechless: "Why are you telling us this? What do you want to do?"
"Please save my life." Kabugongsang said bluntly, with a strong pleading in his eyes, "I'm still young, and I don't want to die. I've told you everything about myself, and I hope you won't doubt my sincerity. I have no other intentions, I just want to live.
Robert said your medical skills are very good. I originally planned to kill them here and leave immediately to go to China to find you. I didn't expect that I would be so lucky to meet you here.
Hearing this, Bai Yangfan was even more speechless: "You don't think we came here just to wait for you, do you?"
"Eighteen! You really know how to joke." Kabugongsang filled the teacup in front of Bai Yangfan. "I don't know why you came here, and I don't want to know. I simply think that this is God helping me.
Give me a chance to leave with you. If you need a golden ship, I can take you to find it."
Lu Jingheng was stunned: "That's something from your ancestors, are you willing to give it to others?"
Kabugonsan: "So what if it's from my ancestors? The wealth left by a pirate is all ill-gotten gains. I'm almost dead, so why would I care about gold and jewelry?"
"So you know that what was salvaged from the seabed isn't the real golden ship?" Bai Yangfan was surprised. "You went to all this trouble just to reveal the true identity of the salvage team?"
"Yes! Eighteen has very sharp observation skills, and it seems that nothing can be hidden from you." Kabugonsang pinched the teapot with his slender fingers, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it slowly.
After a moment, he gestured casually outside, and a burst of gunfire was heard.
There was still the "da da da" sound of machine gun fire, crisp and pleasant.
Kabugongsang sighed: "He has taken care of me since I was a child, but I didn't expect that he would be used as a dog by others."
Although he didn't say who that "he" was, Bai Yangfan and Lu Jingheng both knew that he was referring to his butler.
"People who are dogs usually don't have a good ending. I don't like dogs running around. It's disgusting. Robert and I have been hurt by many dogs in our lives. I don't want to see their shadow around me again."
