Chapter 229 Granddaughter

This yacht is named Sun Glider and is the private yacht of a local real estate developer.

The yacht has three floors in total, with one single room, two double rooms, and two living rooms, one of which is located on the top floor. The area is not large, but because it is only blocked by the ceiling, the view is relatively good.

Because it is a private yacht, the decoration on board is relatively more elaborate, much better than the tourist yacht Li Zhuo rented on Hailing Island in China.

There are flower arrangements and other ornaments in both living rooms, such as colorful porcelain, and there are even dolls on the bed in the bedroom.

There are a total of 4 crew members on this yacht, including the captain. After Li Zhuo and the tour guide boarded the boat, the captain came over to say hello.

The tour guide stood nearby and was responsible for translating his words.

The captain said that he had prepared enough fuel and bait, and asked if he needed anything else.

The captain has been to sea many times and has rich experience. Li Zhuo only needs to explain the situation to him and he will know what to do:

"My plan is to stay at sea for one to two days. I have to prepare all food, fuel, and drinking water. I want to go fishing in the Sulu Sea."

The captain hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Is the voyage relatively long?"

After the tour guide translated, Li Zhuo sensed the location of the locked water coffin. It was not close to here. It was estimated that it would be more than 100 nautical miles, or almost 200 kilometers.

The distance is not far, but it is certainly not close.

Li Zhuo explained to the captain how far he wanted to go.

The captain understood, so he asked several crew members to disembark and purchased more oil, drinking water, rice, vegetables and other items.

Being prepared for any danger, the captain was full of confidence after completing preparations this time.

Soon, he drove the yacht quickly away from the Zamboanga port, and then turned to the northwest, where was the Sulu Sea.

Several crew members accompanied Li Zhuo to place fishhooks on the side of the deck.

They brought up from the bilge a basket of small pond fish they bought from the fish market in the morning. Each small fish was not treated, but was hung directly on the hook and thrown down.

They threw dozens of hooks in one breath, and the fishing line was tied at the stern of the boat.

This is a trolling method that uses the speed of the power boat to make the small fish used as bait quickly change positions on the seabed, giving the big fish the feeling that the small fish are fleeing, and can easily attract ferocious predatory fish in the ocean.

This kind of trolling is much more efficient than fishing with a hand pole.

Li Zhuo was also attracted by this fishing method, and he also skewered two fish and threw them down.

Not long after, a pulling force came from a fishing hook. The crew put on leather gloves and began to pull back along the line.

More than two minutes later, a fish with a red silhouette was dragged next to the yacht.

A crew member took a long hook, hooked it down, and accurately hooked up the fish.

This is a red fish with a red body, weighing about seven or eight kilograms. It was hooked onto the deck by the crew.

Li Zhuo excitedly put this red friend into another large plastic frame.

Before I had time to take a closer look at this beautiful fish, there was a pulling force on the other fishing line. This was another fish.

Li Zhuo saw that the crew pulled back the fishing line easily, so he also asked for a pair of gloves to be ready to pull in the fish at any time.

This time the crew retracted the line much faster. After a few dozen seconds, the crew member holding the hook pulled it down and dragged a big-eyed pomfret onto the deck.

This fish is not big, about five pounds, but it was quickly dragged from the sea to the surface. Under the sudden pressure reduction, its internal organs expanded extremely, and the swim bladder was spit out directly. It was already dead and could no longer die.<

/p>

Then another fishing line was pulling, and Li Zhuo excitedly went over and started to reel in the line.

It's easy to watch the crew retract the line, but it's not so easy to do it yourself.

The pulling force coming from the fishing line was very strong, and it often changed direction. If it weren't for the drag force caused by the movement of the yacht, Li Zhuo would have found it quite difficult to catch it by hand.

Although the work was not very efficient, at least Li Zhuo was able to retract the line and drag a big white fish from the sea to the surface.

This is a big trevally fish, and it looks a bit domineering just by looking at its size. Its head is arc-shaped, shiny, and silvery. It looks like it's a headache. Li Zhuo even thought that if he hit its head with his hand, it would probably...

It makes the sound of hammering iron.

This fish is estimated to weigh about ten kilograms, which is quite big.

The crew hooked the fish with a long hook and pulled it up suddenly.

This fish is quite fierce, and it banged on the deck after it came up.

The catch was good, and Li Zhuo happily threw it into the fish box.

The weather was hot, so in order to prevent him from getting sunburned, Li Zhuo did not continue. Instead, he went to the living room on the third deck, hiding from the light, enjoying the sea breeze, and watching the crew continue fishing.

Not long after, they cheered, and Li Zhuo stood up and saw a yellow and green, large ghost-headed sword, with a metallic phantom shining on its body, being hooked onto the deck.

The fish was pretty good, and a crew member quickly carried it into the kitchen. After a while, Li Zhuo had a plate of ghost head sashimi in front of him.

The taste is not as smooth as salmon. Its muscle texture is distinct, more chewy and slightly sweet. This fish is also delicious as sashimi.

When the sun was no longer so poisonous, Li Zhuo continued to catch fish and had a great time. The harvest was two full baskets of fish, the largest of which was a sea wolf fish, nearly one and a half meters long.

After only half a day at sea, I caught more fish than I could eat in ten days.

It can only be said that the marine fish resources here in the Philippines are really abundant. As long as you set the hook, you have a chance of catching a big fish.

The captain drove at a speed of 12 knots for nearly 10 hours before approaching the sea area.

Li Zhuo knew he was close, so he went to the cab, carefully felt the position of the cigarette, and directed the captain to adjust the direction.

Finally, towards evening, the yacht came within one kilometer of the water coffin.

From this distance, both the captain and the crew saw the water coffin floating on the water.

The captain was obviously a little afraid of this thing and didn't dare to get close.

They have some legends related to water coffins, which are quite evil. For example, the locals believe that the size of the coffin should be the same as the size of the deceased. If it is too big, another person will die.

Also, don't touch the water coffins floating on the sea, otherwise it will easily disturb the undead.

Li Zhuo didn't intend to get close, and he also had some taboos.

But as long as he stays within one kilometer, he can talk to him.

So he used the excuse of taking photos and asked the captain to keep the yacht within one kilometer of it.

The captain has no problem with this.

Li Zhuo asked the crew and tour guide to prepare dinner, then climbed up to the third floor deck alone with a telescope and looked at the lonely water coffin in the distance.

Through the telescope, he could clearly see the gecko and other patterns carved on the wooden coffin.

The gecko symbolizes happiness, wealth and eternity of the soul in the Philippines.

He began to try to communicate with his spirit:

"Are you still there? Are there any unresolved wishes that will keep you from peace even after your long sleep?"

Immediately there was a faint mental wave coming over there. It was certain that it was more like an obsession, the thought of the deceased during his lifetime:

"Psychic? You can actually communicate with me, a dead person?"

This consciousness obviously comes from an old soul. This should be someone who died at an advanced age.

"No, I just came here to fulfill your long-cherished wish. Tell me, I will try my best to help you fulfill your long-cherished wish that makes your soul unable to rest peacefully."

The old voice sounded again:

"Thank you. I passed away at an old age. As for me, I have no regrets. The only thing I can't let go of is my still young granddaughter. I'm worried that she won't survive."
