Hearing Taylor's words, Lu Xuan and Yin Yichen both turned their eyes to the huge ship.
At this moment, the boat they were riding in was close to the hull, so close that he could almost count the mottled rust on the hull and take in every detail. Naturally, the door cleverly hidden in the side of the ship and difficult to detect did not escape Taylor's sharp eagle eyes.
"Brother Lu Xuan, you are so amazing. You guessed this?"
Taylor turned his head and looked at Lu Xuan with almost worshipful eyes.
"Wow, there really is a door, handsome boy! I seriously suspect that you designed these two ships. Otherwise, how could you find such a secret door? But... this one seems a bit high. How do we get up there?"
Yin Yichen even began to suspect that Lu Xuan was the hull designer of the two ships, otherwise how could Lu Xuan guess the location of such a secret door.
"Uh...you should stop guessing. Let's go up first and talk about it."
Lu Xuan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. He was nothing more than a blind cat that caught a dead mouse. How could he be called a designer? It was a good thing that this girl could come up with that idea. If he had that ability, would he need to come to Leng Mengyao's small company and listen to Shen Keyin's orders?
"Handsome boy, how can we get up there when it's so high? How about you hold me so I can see clearly?"
Yin Yichen's imagination was truly out of control. She'd even considered having Lu Xuan hold her in the boat and let her reach the door! Putting aside the possibility of the boat capsizing, the height alone wasn't high enough. Even if two Yin Yichens were stacked on top of each other, they wouldn't be able to reach it. And even if they did, what would happen? Could the door even be opened? Were they still expecting someone to just rip it open? This was a complete joke...
"Just sit tight, Taylor. We'll keep going. You and Yichen will go to the inner cabin and look carefully. Since there's a door outside, there might be a secret door inside that we can enter from the inside."
"Handsome boy, what are you going to do? Are you going to be lazy again? You just order us around, huh!"
Miss Yin heard that she was exiled by Lu Xuan again, but Lu Xuan himself seemed to have nothing to do, so Yin Yichen put her hands on her hips and glared at Lu Xuan angrily.
"Miss, when have you seen me slacking off? Go ahead and search the cabin. I'll drop a rope over the side and see if I can pry it open from the outside."
Lu Xuan was speechless. It seemed that his image in Miss Yin's heart had collapsed quite badly.
After getting ashore, Lu Xuan tied the boat and climbed onto the yacht first with an axe on his back.
"Brother Lu Xuan, do you want me to help you? It will be safer this way?"
Taylor was still a little worried when he saw Lu Xuan was going to swing down alone.
"It's okay. This isn't my first time doing this. Practice makes perfect. You two have good eyesight, so go and take a good look. If you can find the secret door, it won't save me from breaking it down from the outside."
Lu Xuan was very good at this kind of physical work, so naturally he didn't need someone to watch over him. He always carried the hemp rope with him.
"Well, if you need any help, just shout out and I'll come to your rescue right away."
Yin Yichen acted like a big sister and even patted her chest before parting. Lu Xuan was speechless again. He really didn't know where this girl got her confidence from.
"Then Brother Lu Xuan, we will come to you after we finish searching."
After saying hello to Lu Xuan, Taylor took Yin Yichen into the cabin to look for a possible hidden door.
Lu Xuan walked to the outer side of the ship alone, then began to look with his head down, searching for the door below.
After confirming the location, Lu Xuan tied one end of the hemp rope in his hand to the side of the boat, calculated the distance, left a certain length of rope, and tied the other end around himself.
After completing the safety measures, Lu Xuan began to move slowly downwards.
Lu Xuan had already mastered this high-altitude descent to perfection. In less than five minutes, he easily reached the target location. Lu Xuan fumbled around the door, trying to find a switch or a groove where he could put his hand. However, after some twists and turns, his palm was covered with dust, and he still couldn't touch any place where he could apply force.
"Hey, who designed this weird thing?"
Lu Xuan struggled for about ten minutes, his buttocks aching from the tight hemp rope, but he still had no luck. In desperation, he took the heavy axe from his back and prepared to take more direct measures.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Lu Xuan gritted his teeth, swung the heavy axe, and with a force that should not be underestimated, he struck the iron door with a series of swift and decisive blows. However, the unexpected tenacity of the axe made his heart sink. His hands were numb from the reaction, as if an electric current had passed through them. And the door, though a few tiny cracks barely appeared on its surface, still stubbornly stood firm, as if mocking his futility.
"Ouch! Sure!"
Lu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned. He had never expected that he would encounter such a tricky situation today.
First, Plan A was blocked, and then Plan B also failed. Lu Xuan had no choice but to resort to the final Plan C, and simply turned the axe blade into a crowbar.
However, the connection between the door and the hull was surprisingly seamless, leaving no room for maneuver. Lu Xuan circled the door frame, using his axe as a pry, and carefully explored it, but he couldn't find a single gap to apply force.
At this moment, the situation was indeed a bit tricky. The three plans ABC failed one after another. Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. If he returned to the deck in a mess, he would probably be laughed at to death by Miss Yin if she knew about it.
However, hanging here all the time is not a solution. Even if you don't operate the axe, just hanging here is extremely physically demanding. Lu Xuan not only has a sore butt, but his hands are also covered with red blood marks. If he doesn't get up now, he is afraid that even if he wants to go up, he won't have the strength to do so.
While he still had some strength, Lu Xuan climbed back onto the deck along the rope. However, he looked really disheveled. His hands were red, his buttocks were sore, and he couldn't even straighten his arms.
"Handsome boy, handsome boy, here we are. Guess what we found. Hahahaha... Hey, why did you become like this?"
This is really like not being able to talk about people during the day and not being able to talk about ghosts at night. Lu Xuan was still tossing himself around, and then Miss Yin suddenly appeared out of nowhere...
