Capítulo 963: Chapter 388: Fog Day (Part 3)
He held her tight all the way, hurrying towards the inn.
Although he didn’t know how his benefactor from the past two days could save his sister.
But these are not people to be fathomed by him, and at this crucial moment, he dared not think too much, a slight mistake could cost his sister’s life.
Having lost his parents already, how could he bear to lose his only close kin again?
After saying this much, he had roughly explained the cause and effect of the situation.
Xiao Ning’s words were somewhat clumsy, occasionally failing to convey his meaning, but he barely managed to make himself clear.
Su Mo was somewhat surprised.
He wasn’t surprised that Third Uncle knew they had come.
Their high-profile arrival would be quite mysterious if this person knew nothing about it.
But he hadn’t expected Third Uncle to cause trouble for that sick young master for Ling Yuanke.
And that the sick young master called this old man Elder Du, which was also quite surprising.
These two words are not something ordinary people can use lightly.
As he pondered, a knock was heard, and Wei Ziyi stepped in, softly exhaling:
“Little Situ has administered the acupuncture, that child won’t die.
“However, Little Situ said the poison in her is extraordinary.
“It’s not easy to completely cure it.
“At least two or three days are needed for a full recovery.
“During these days, the child cannot leave Little Situ.”
Wei Ziyi frowned:
“But she’s just a child, who would do such a harmful act to her?”
Su Mo tilted his mouth, glancing at Xiao Ning.
Yang Xiaoyun then explained the situation like this.
Wei Ziyi’s face darkened:
“It’s outrageous, you’re a child who doesn’t know martial arts, why meddle in these affairs?
“Ordinary people avoid such problems, yet you had to get involved, are you seeking death?”
Xiao Ning quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak.
Wei Ziyi glanced at Su Mo:
“So it seems, last night, it truly was the sick young master who killed Ling Yuanke.”
“Hmm.”
Su Mo nodded lightly: “However, since there is that old man pulling the strings, this sick young master probably has no time to spare for other matters for the time being. It’s just that I don’t know what the old man’s intentions are…”
On Chi Yan Island, lives were taken for the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture, many tragically lost their lives on that rooftop.
Now, again, causing trouble with the sick young master over an ordinary Jianghu guest.
His actions seem driven by a singular thought in his mind.
However, Su Mo didn’t dwell too much on this matter.
Today, he learned from Xiao Ning’s words that in two days, it would be Fog Day.
Now that Xiao Ning’s sister is temporarily safe, there’s no need to worry about extra matters.
That night, Su Mo let Xiao Ning and his sister both rest in the inn.
In the following two days, the entire Gupiao Island was calm and peaceful.
The clues that had vaguely emerged quickly retracted back in the blink of an eye.
But Fu Han Yuan by the shore informed Su Mo.
In these few days, there have been more people arriving on the island.
However, most of them did not dock at the official pier but sneaked onto the island from other places.
Fu Han Yuan, observing from the watchtower, spied a few more with the Thousand mile Sight.
And on the so-called Fog Day, a thick fog indeed descended.
Everything beyond two zhang was indistinct and unclear.
In such a situation, no matter how exceptional one’s martial arts are, or how extraordinary their eyesight, piercing through this thick fog is impossible.
Before dawn, Su Mo already had everyone aboard the ship.
Besides their group, only Xiao Ning and his sister joined.
Xiao Ning’s sister still required another day’s acupuncture for recovery.
Naturally, Xiao Ning couldn’t leave his sister, so he decided to take both along.
“On Fog Day, north of Gupiao Island, head east at Wu hour, stop at Shen hour…
“Before sunset, head west for two hours, and when night falls, clouds part and fog clears, Dragon Wood Island can be seen!”
Su Mo murmured these words as the big ship quietly left the shore, heading north of Gupiao Island.
These days, Song Yuanlong had repeatedly observed this route several times.
Aiming to reach the destination even with eyes closed.
Spending half a day in stillness here, calculating time, the ship began to set sail at Wu hour.
The speed was neither fast nor slow.
Song Yuanlong, standing on the deck steering, frowned as he looked at the dense mist ahead.
Su Mo stood beside Song Yuanlong, facing the overwhelming fog, and asked:
“Old Song, is this kind of heavy mist normal?”
Song Yuanlong remained silent for a moment, then said:
“Actually, it’s not normal…
“But maritime conditions are unpredictable, and thick fog engulfing the sea is not unheard of. If encountered with calm wind, it can indeed temporarily conceal actions.
“Sailing in this weather is extremely dangerous.
“On normal days, running into reefs or similar obstacles is hard to prevent if unfamiliar with the terrain.
“Let alone in this thick fog.
“If there’s a mountain ahead, we might only realize it when we’ve already crashed into it.”
Su Mo nodded gently, about to speak, when suddenly a cracking sound was heard.
He looked at Song Yuanlong in surprise.
This man had just mentioned crashing into a mountain, and now they had indeed hit something.
His words seemed rather prophetic.
Song Yuanlong was also taken aback, approaching Wei Ziyi by the side of the ship, he looked down and then said:
“It’s a small skiff, but there’s no one on it…”
Su Mo nodded, but then suddenly heard the sound of something breaking through the water from the other side.
He then heard a slapping sound coming from the ship’s hull.
At this moment, everyone gathered on the deck, and Zhen Xiaoxiao felt a bit panicked hearing this commotion:
“Master, could it be a water ghost?”
“Perhaps you should try tasting if water ghosts are good?”
Su Mo smiled, “But don’t worry, it’s a person…”
Just as he finished speaking, a pair of hands grabbed the ship’s side, and a figure, soaked wet, laboriously climbed up and rolled onto the deck.
He let out a long breath, turning to look, and was taken aback:
“Is it you guys?”
“Is it you?”
Su Mo and the others were quite surprised as well.
The one who boarded was someone they had just met a couple of days ago.
It was the girl from the Shattered Star Sect.
