"What?!" Gu Yanran, who was in the middle of a body spa from her personal beautician, immediately sat up on the water bed. Her face was full of shock. "Who is it? How did they find that place?! "
She wasn't wearing any clothes, and her voluptuous body revealed her full curves. She was as tempting as a ripe peach.
Although her personal beautician was a woman and had seen many women's bodies, she still couldn't help blushing and her heart palpitating every time she saw Gu Yanran.
The woman on the other end of the phone laughed quietly and teased, "… Who else could it be? Your Huo Shao … "
"Hey hey hey … How can you say that? When did he become my Huo Shao? " Gu Yanran froze and quickly retorted, "Don't say that. He's already taken …"
"Haha …" The person didn't continue and only urged her, "Hurry up and go. I'm afraid you'll only be able to collect his corpse if you're late."
Gu Yanran knew how dangerous the blue hole near her island was. She gestured to the beautician to leave and said to the person on the phone, "The blue hole over there is a real blue hole. It's not a limestone cave that's a holy place for diving. The water in that blue hole doesn't circulate, and there aren't even any fish. How can they be so daring? What are they trying to do? "
"I don't know what they're trying to do, but they're definitely interested in your island." The person on the phone thought about it and said a few words to Gu Yanran, "This is a good opportunity. I won't drag you down. Be careful. I'm hanging up. "
Gu Yanran understood what she meant and pursed her lips. "Don't be too hasty. Going too far is as bad as not going far enough."
"I know. I know what I'm doing. I can't drag you down." The person hung up after saying that.
Gu Yanran called again and discovered that the number was no longer in service.
She froze and was speechless at this elusive friend of hers.
However, she was in a hurry to go out to sea. When she was changing and putting on makeup in the lounge, she had already made several calls to her newly hired butler to arrange a yacht and security personnel to go out to sea with her within ten minutes.
Money made things easier. With the Gu family's power, preparing these things was a matter of minutes.
…
Next to the blue hole in the sea near the Gu family's island, a white bullet-shaped yacht with very smooth lines was floating.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't be bothered to put on her hat. She leaned against the small table and fiddled with the intercom. Her lips were pursed tightly like a thin line, and the lines of her face were even more delicate and fragile. Like porcelain as thin as egg skin, it felt like it would shatter with a single gust of wind.
Yin Shixiong nervously sat on the deck next to her and kept rubbing his hands. "Little ancestor, don't touch it. If you break it, you won't be able to receive news from Huo Shao and the others."
"I couldn't get it in the first place," Gu Nianzhi said sullenly, her slender, fair fingers in stark contrast to the dark communicator.
"How could that be?" Yin Shixiong tried to explain to her, "When you dive into the deep sea, communication with the surface will be affected. Moreover, they went to a place like the blue hole. It's impossible for them to receive a clear signal."
"Really?" Gu Nianzhi didn't believe him and looked at him suspiciously. "Are you sure? You promise? "
"Aiyo! That's what I said. It's probability! Probability! Understand? "
"Of course I understand." Gu Nianzhi glared at Yin Shixiong. "But this communicator is indeed faulty. What if Huo Shao and the others want to talk to us but can't because of this broken communicator? Who's going to take responsibility? "
"I'll do it! I'll take responsibility! Can I? Little girl, put it down now! Put it down! " Yin Shixiong tried his best to persuade her and finally took the communicator back from Gu Nianzhi's hands. He hugged it to his chest, afraid that Gu Nianzhi would fiddle with it again.
Gu Nianzhi dusted her hands and got up to go to the cabin to wash her face. She reapplied sunscreen before putting on her sunglasses and walking out. She looked at the azure sea and sky, but she wasn't happy at all.
Hugging her legs, she sat on the deck chair and stared unblinkingly at the blue hole in the distance.
It was said that the sea was the cradle of life. The blue hole was so deep and blue, but it wasn't a place that nurtured life, but a dead end.
Because there was no water circulation in the real blue hole, marine life couldn't survive inside.
Gu Nianzhi was so nervous that she wanted to bite her nails, but as soon as she put her fingers in her mouth, she remembered the last time Huo Shaoheng cut her nails. Her heart ached even more.
…
Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze were also unable to communicate inside the blue hole.
As soon as they entered the blue hole's waters, they discovered that it was indeed different from the outside.
Everything here was still, as if even the seawater was still.
There was no light, no sound, and all they could see was a thick, dark blue that wouldn't melt.
As they snuck inside the blue hole, they felt the resistance was unusually strong.
And as soon as they entered the blue hole, they discovered that they couldn't communicate freely.
There was no visible barrier between the blue hole's seawater and normal seawater, but there was an invisible force that separated the two.
Light could pass through, and people could swim over, but sound waves and radio waves were coincidentally blocked outside the blue hole.
Huo Shaoheng marveled at the uncanny workmanship of nature and the ingenuity of the Creator. He also had a thought: Did Gu Xiangwen use this blue hole to "shield" the entire island?
The island could be seen with the naked eye, but high-tech satellites and sound waves couldn't detect it.
Like an outdated GPS, it told you there was a path and there were no obstacles, but the end of the path had already been dug out. Turning a corner didn't lead to a broad road, but to the bottom of a cliff.
Zhao Liangze was very nervous. If he hadn't seen Huo Shaoheng swimming in front of him, he would've anxiously floated up.
Although the fish that had teased him earlier had made him very angry, at this moment, he only hoped that another fish like that would come over to "tease" him. It was for no other reason than to prove that there were other living creatures here besides him and Huo Shaoheng.
But in reality, there were no other living creatures besides him and Huo Shaoheng.
This was a graveyard, a graveyard for underwater creatures.
They dove for about 200 meters, but still couldn't see the end of the seabed.
Zhao Liangze dove down and came to Huo Shaoheng's side. He grabbed his arm and wanted to pull him up.
Huo Shaoheng waved his hand at him and pointed in a direction underwater.
Zhao Liangze looked over in confusion.
Diagonally below them, in the direction of six o'clock, was a shadowy round object that did not seem to be of natural origin.
Because that thing was too round, too perfectly round.
Zhao Liangze's geographical knowledge told them that there were no naturally round objects in nature.
"Go down." Huo Shaoheng gestured to Zhao Liangze, and the two of them dove towards the round object.
…
On the surface of the sea, Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes as the sea breeze blew against her. She slowly lay down on the rattan deck chair.
The waves weren't big, and they slapped against the side of the boat. The entire yacht was like a bullet-shaped cradle.
The swaying yacht was like a cradle, and people couldn't help but feel sleepy.
It was also noon, and people always felt sleepy after eating and drinking their fill.
Gu Nianzhi originally only wanted to close her eyes to avoid being dazzled by the midday sun, but she soon fell asleep.
Although she was asleep, her body was still tense, and she was still worried about Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze's safety.
Yin Shixiong sat on the other deck chair next to her with a fishing rod in front of him.
However, his attention wasn't on the fishing rod, but on the communication device.
He had to be ready to receive messages from Huo Shaoheng and the others at any time.
…
The white Millennium Ota was very conspicuous on the azure sea, and a 10-person speedboat quickly spotted it.
"… Is this it?"
"It should be. There's only one white yacht near the blue hole."
"Let's go to the blue hole first."
The people on the speedboat put on their diving suits and swam towards the blue hole.
They carried a special device that could send messages from the blue hole.
Not long after, they entered the blue hole's range and turned on their devices to make it easier to communicate with each other.
At that moment, Gu Nianzhi, who had fallen asleep on the wicker chair on the deck, suddenly felt a very slight vibration. It was like a breeze blowing through the treetops, or like a kitten sticking out its tongue and licking her fingernails. It was extremely gentle, but it couldn't be ignored.
She thought it was the force of the waves pushing against the yacht, so she didn't pay it much attention. She turned over on the deck chair and wanted to continue sleeping.
After a while, the vibration became more obvious, and it was very rhythmic.
Once, twice, thrice, it repeatedly touched her skin.
Gu Nianzhi opened her eyes abruptly and discovered that the vibration had disappeared.
She turned her head and looked around. On the vast sea, the boundary between the sky and the sea had disappeared. Everywhere was blue. For a moment, she didn't know where the sky was and where the sea was. There was a sense of confusion in her perception of direction and location.
Gu Nianzhi rubbed her forehead and turned to see Yin Shixiong sitting next to her with his arms crossed and eyes closed. She got up and pushed him. "Brother Xiong, don't you think the waves are a bit strange?"
"Strange how?"
"They keep shaking. Don't you feel it?"
