Chapter 459 is just too tragic.
Lin Xiao quickly flattered her: "Thank you for your advice, Grandma! You are really amazing! You can actually come up with an excuse like the gold mine!"
“It wasn’t my idea,” Xie Ying said quietly. “There is indeed a gold mine hidden on the island.”
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment: "There is a gold mine hidden on that island?
Could it be that they discovered the gold mine there, so they secretly moved up there and dug for gold?"
Xie Ying spoke again quietly: "They didn't find out."
Lin Xiao's pupils instantly trembled: "!!!"
After a long while, he finally found his voice: "So, what you mean is that those people have lived on the Golden Mountain for so long and have never discovered it?"
"Yeah, do you think they are unlucky?"
Xie Ying glanced at Lin Xiao's stunned face and continued, "Let me tell you another piece of news. The island owner is named Chen Shao, and he is Chen Shou's biological brother!
They look very similar, but neither of them is the son of Duke Cheng'en. Instead, they are the children of his wife and Jia Rui.
Lord Cheng'en, unaware of the inside story, even found Jia Rui to be Chen Shao's tutor, entrusted Chen Shao to Jia Rui's care, and sent Jia Rui a generous thank-you gift every year.
Lin Xiao: "..."
What kind of super-unlucky green turtle is this?
Duke Cheng'en is so miserable!
Wait! He remembered that the Chen family once owned a mountain called Linshan, which was later bought by Xie Xiu, and coal was dug up underneath!
Now, a gold mine has been discovered on the island occupied by the Chen brothers...
What kind of luck do the Chen brothers have?
Say they are unlucky, they have owned a mountain of treasures continuously.
They are lucky because they have owned a treasure mountain for many years but they didn’t know there was treasure in the mountain!
Lin Xiao suddenly felt some sympathy for the Chen brothers!
He had no doubt that when the two men were caught and learned that there was a gold mine hidden on the island, their expressions would be very interesting!
If you are not in good health, you might even die of anger!
Suddenly, he looked at Xie Ying with a strange expression: "Grandma, are you going to tell the court about the gold mine?"
That's a gold mine!
Xie Ying rolled her eyes at him again: "What else? Do you want me to mine myself?"
Lin Xiao: "..."
Xie Ying continued, "The imperial court has been looking for Chen Shou, and Chen Shao is a pirate. If you report the news about them, you will definitely be rewarded handsomely!
Add to that the merit of discovering the gold mine and reporting it to the court, and you'll be promoted to a military officer. From now on, not only will you be able to live an upright life, you'll also be able to become a military officer.
Do you still think I deliberately tricked you?"
Lin Xiao was overjoyed and quickly complimented, "How could that be? Grandma, you are my second parent! Don't worry, even if I really become a military officer, I will only obey you in the future!"
"If you tell me to go west, I won't go east! Just give me a call and I'll appear before you! I'll serve you till my death!"
Xie Ying snorted softly: "As long as you can remember it."
After the boat continued sailing for another hour, Xie Ying asked Xiangxiang to release the other boats, leaving only the small fishing boat they came on and the boat that Chen Shao had hidden.
Xie Ying asked Lin Xiao to take the boy onto Chen Shao's lifeboat, while she herself took the small fishing boat and parted ways with the two.
Lin Xiao felt a little regretful: without the whales to help pull the boat, he would have to row back on his own. He just had to avoid any storms, or he and the young man would be eaten by fish.
Xie Ying, however, did not have the same regrets and concerns as him.
The group of killer whales obviously knew that she had something good here, so they all surrounded her and pulled her small fishing boat away very fast!
Because the number of killer whales had doubled, and there was no heavy man like Lin Xiao on the boat, the small fishing boat was almost flying on the water.
Lin Xiao felt that in the blink of an eye, Xie Ying and the small fishing boat turned into small black dots on the horizon.
Seeing the other party walking further and further away, he could only sigh depressedly, took off his nightgown and threw it into the sea, then resignedly picked up the oars and rowed.
Fortunately, the boy woke up not long after he rowed.
Xie Ying had specially left food and fresh water on the boat. Seeing that he had woken up, Lin Xiao threw him a rice ball and said, "Eat it. It'll fill your stomach."
The boy looked at him in horror: "Who are you? Where is this? Why am I on a boat?"
Lin Xiao said in a vicious tone: "If you're not on the boat, where else do you want to be? Do you want to stay there and be deflowered? If you don't want to die, then hurry up and eat something and row with me!"
The boy had been hungry for three days and was already very hungry. Upon hearing this, he quickly picked up the rice ball and started eating.
The rice balls had already cooled down, and now they were cold and tasted just average.
The boy didn't show any disgust and quickly stuffed the entire rice ball into his mouth.
As a result, I ate too fast and choked on the food.
Seeing that he was choking, Lin Xiao reminded him, "There's water in the jar, drink some quickly."
When the boy heard this, he quickly lowered his head to find the jar, picked it up, opened the cork, and took a big gulp.
But after swallowing the rice ball, he still felt very hungry, so he looked at Lin Xiao pitifully: "Is there anything else to eat? They starved me for three days, and I am starving now."
Lin Xiao threw him another rice ball and said, "If you want to eat the rest, come and help me row the boat. If you dare not behave, I will throw you overboard to feed the fish!"
The boy shivered with fear, but he still quickly ate the second rice ball, drank a few big gulps of water, and swallowed the rice ball.
Then he asked, "Where are we going?"
"Back to shore, of course. Where else do you want to go? Back to that island?"
When the boy heard the word "island", he turned pale with fright.
He shook his head violently: "No, no, no, I won't go back even if I die!"
After saying that, he obediently grabbed the oar and rowed the boat like Lin Xiao.
Unfortunately, he didn't know how to row, and he rowed very badly at the beginning. If it weren't for Lin Xiao holding him back, he would have capsized the boat!
It was only after Lin Xiao's guidance that he gradually got the hang of it.
The two rowed hard, following the guidance of the compass and approaching the coast.
The compass was given to Xie Ying, but her compass came from Situ Yuan. It was something Situ Yuan had someone make, and it has not yet been officially launched on the market.
This thing is more useful than Si Nan. When Lin Xiao saw it for the first time, he was amazed.
Just as the two were rowing hard, Tu Jiaojiao, Luo Zheng, Feng Xinyi, Song Xingzhou and others were on their way.
The expressions of the four people were very ugly, especially Tu Jiaojiao. She was obviously just a woman, but at this moment she was full of murderous aura and was as fierce as a god of death!
When she and Xie Xiu woke up in the morning, they saw the note left by Xie Ying. They were so angry that they wanted to catch Xie Ying and beat her up immediately!
This girl doesn't even realize how old she is, yet she wants to go out to sea to save people!
With her tiny body, she can be blown away by any sea breeze!
