Gu Nianzhi's swimming ability had been honed with the Special Forces. If it was just swimming in the sea, Yin Shixiong wouldn't be worried about any waves.
However, it wasn't just the waves, but also the people who had just jumped into the sea and might be hiding in the dark to cause trouble.
Yin Shixiong rushed to the front of the boat and waved his arms, but he didn't dare call out her name. He was worried that if someone found out, it would cause more trouble. He could only howl to vent his anger and nervousness.
It was already noon, and the sun shone brightly on the sea, making the water appear even more piercing.
Gu Nianzhi swam with all her might towards the blue hole. The sun shone brightly above her head, and the water was blue, but she wasn't in the mood to enjoy the view.
Her face was burning from the sun, but luckily she was wearing diving goggles, so her eyes weren't hurt.
She didn't dare to swim underwater because she didn't have a compass. She would lose her way if she went below the surface.
When she was on the surface, she still had to pay attention to the movements of the armed robbers on the yacht that she had knocked over.
If they didn't give up and hid somewhere at the bottom of the sea, they could come out at any time to kill her.
It didn't matter if she died, but if she died, no one would be able to save Huo Shaoheng.
And Huo Shaoheng wasn't just important to her, but to the entire Hua Xia Empire.
Gu Nianzhi's courage increased when she thought of the heavy responsibility she had.
However, she didn't act recklessly. Instead, she used all the swimming skills she had learned in the past six or seven years to try to swim to the blue hole in the shortest time possible without using up too much energy.
…
Gu Yanran stood alone at the front of the black yacht and watched the yacht ride the wind and waves towards the blue hole.
The middle-aged woman walked over from behind, her eyes sparkling as she asked her one last time, "Yanran, do you really have to go to the blue hole? Do you really have to save Huo Shaoheng? "
"Yes, I can't just watch him fall into danger," Gu Yanran said without turning her head. Her eyes were focused on the blue hole not far away.
The water there was a deeper blue than anywhere else, so blue that it was a bit creepy.
"His heart isn't with you, so what's the point of you saving him?" The middle-aged woman looked at her strangely. "Even if you save him, you won't mind seeing him with someone else in the future?"
Gu Yanran lowered her head and stared blankly for a moment before replying quietly, "If that's the case, there's nothing I can do. But as long as I save him, I can leave a scar in his heart … "
"Hehe, I didn't expect Yanran to be such an infatuated girl. I really couldn't tell before." The middle-aged woman nodded. "That's good. Our paths are different. Give me a small boat and let me down."
"Are you leaving?" Gu Yanran finally turned to look at her. Her expression was calm. "Why do you always dress like this? Besides, this is the sea. Are you sure a small boat is enough? "
There was no food and no water. If there was a storm, their boat would disappear in the vast sea.
If this continued, it would be tantamount to suicide.
The middle-aged woman snickered and waved a hand at Gu Yanran. She said lazily, "You don't have to worry about how I dress. But the person you want to save is the person who tried to capture me by all means possible. Am I supposed to just sit here and wait for death? "
"But it's also very dangerous for you to go down to the sea. You might even die." Gu Yanran walked to the middle-aged woman's side and studied her carefully. "I don't know what grudge you have with them, but can you reconcile with them for my sake?"
"Hehe? Are you sure you want to reconcile? " The middle-aged woman had a strange smile on her face. "I'm not going to talk to you anymore. Just give me a speedboat and let me go quickly. If I'm too late and those people see me with you, they'll misunderstand again. "
Gu Yanran sighed. "Looks like you still don't want to let go. Actually, why bother? Why bother? "
"It's easy for you to say. If what happened to me happened to you, I don't believe you can still act like a saint." The middle-aged woman snickered and shook her head in disdain. "Stop talking. Hurry up and give me a boat. I still have two loyal subordinates. With them protecting me, it won't be a problem to return to shore."
Gu Yanran saw that the woman wouldn't listen no matter how much she tried to persuade her. She felt that she had done her best as a friend, so she nodded. "Fine, I'll do as you say. I'll give you a lifeboat, as well as some food and water. Use it sparingly. If there are no accidents, you'll be able to return to shore in half a day."
"It's only half a day. What are you complaining about?!" The middle-aged woman grew impatient and turned to leave. "I'm leaving. This time, I'm really going back. There's no need to see me again." With that, she paused and turned back to look at Gu Yanran with a strange smile. "But are you sure you can enter the blue hole to save him? I've already activated your father's electric fence … "
"What?!" Gu Yanran was shocked. She walked quickly to stop the middle-aged woman. "How did you activate it?! How did you know about the electric fence here?! Who told you?! "
The middle-aged woman looked like she had heard the funniest joke in the world. Clutching her chest, she laughed so hard that tears streamed down her cheeks.
She used the back of her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes as she giggled. "… How would I know? Who told me? That's a good question, but I don't know either! Hahahaha … "
The middle-aged woman laughed heartily as she jumped off the yacht. She jumped into a lifeboat that had just been released from the yacht into the sea.
Her two subordinates followed suit and jumped down as well.
The lifeboat rocked twice on the surface of the sea.
The middle-aged woman's subordinates quickly steadied themselves and started the lifeboat.
Gu Yanran stood at the bow of the boat and watched as the middle-aged woman left with her two subordinates.
Not long after the three of them left, Gu Yanran's yacht arrived at the waters near the blue hole. The sky ahead was so blue that it almost blinded one's eyes.
The longer one looked at the blue hole, the more one would think that everything else was blue …
Gu Yanran raised her hand, and the housekeeper immediately placed a pair of custom-made sunglasses in her delicate palm.
Gu Yanran put on the sunglasses and looked in the direction of the blue hole. It was much clearer now.
She frowned slightly and muttered, "Why did the electric fence here activate? Didn't it run out of electricity after so many years? "
She felt very uneasy and crossed her arms as she paced back and forth at the bow of the yacht. In the end, she still didn't believe the middle-aged woman's words. She raised her chin at her housekeeper. "Get someone to take the lifeboat to the blue hole to save someone."
"Save who?" The housekeeper asked in surprise. "Do you have a photo?"
Gu Yanran's worries were all dispelled by the housekeeper. She laughed. "The blue hole is deserted all year round. Do we still need a photo to save someone? You guys go in and save anyone you see inside. "
"Yes, Miss Gu." Although the housekeeper felt that Gu Yanran's order was a bit strange, she was the employer and the person who paid them. Her words were the loudest, so they could only keep their opinions to themselves.
The housekeeper acted quickly.
Within a few minutes, he found two strong sailors to take the lifeboat to the blue hole.
Gu Yanran's black yacht was less than ten meters away from the blue hole. The situation in the sea could already be seen clearly with the naked eye. Moreover, Gu Yanran had high-definition binoculars.
She raised the binoculars and could even see Huo Shaoheng's head popping up from time to time in the blue hole.
She could see his handsome eyes, strong arms, and standard swimming style. He was gliding in the blue sky. Although he was in a dangerous place, his posture was still relaxed, as if he did not care about the danger at all.
He cruised in this azure world as if this was his territory and he was the king here!
…
Gu Nianzhi finally neared the blue hole's waters. However, before she could swim over, a black yacht sped over from another direction and also headed towards the blue hole.
The yacht created a huge wave, and the waves instantly swept Gu Nianzhi into the bottom of the sea. She spent a lot of effort to struggle to the surface.
Fortunately, the wave just now happened to block the view of the people on the yacht.
Whether it was Gu Yanran or the middle-aged woman who had just left, none of them noticed a slender figure floating near the yacht.
Gu Nianzhi floated up from the bottom of the sea and happened to miss the middle-aged woman and the others who had left in the small boat.
She shook her head and looked around. After determining her direction, she swam over to the black yacht in front of her.
She still didn't know who the people on the black yacht were, but considering the gunmen on the white yacht, Gu Nianzhi decided to be careful.
She carefully kept her figure in the yacht's blind spot so that she wouldn't be discovered by the people on the yacht.
…
"Miss, the blue hole's waters are just ahead." The housekeeper stood beside Gu Yanran and watched with her as the two subordinates in the lifeboat approached the blue hole's waters.
Gu Nianzhi swam behind a reef near the blue hole's waters. Her dark gray diving suit perfectly blended in with the surrounding reef.
She lay there motionlessly and observed her surroundings.
It turned out that the waters around the blue hole weren't spacious and flat. Instead, there were some rugged reefs entrenched there in a complicated pattern.
Therefore, the big boat definitely couldn't pass, but the small lifeboat was no problem.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened as she watched the small lifeboat sail towards the blue hole's waters.
Three meters, two meters, one meter … It went in!
Whoosh!
Just as the small lifeboat was about to enter the blue hole's waters, a bluish-purple electric arc crackled from the bottom of the small boat. This time, for some reason, the bluish-purple electric arc was even more powerful than before. It was like a bolt of lightning and instantly charred the lifeboat. The two people on the lifeboat were instantly electrocuted into two pieces of charcoal.
Gu Nianzhi was shocked.
The bluish-purple electric arc just now wasn't this powerful!
It had only been less than half an hour, right?
How could it be so powerful?!
Gu Yanran was also shocked.
She didn't expect the electric fence her father had left behind to go out of control …
