Mo Qiong was shocked. He didn't need to breathe? He could only hold his breath for four minutes at most. He had been soaking for five minutes, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
He opened his eyes and looked at the bottom of the water, but he didn't find any bubbles.
He exhaled slowly, and bubbles floated to the surface.
Then, he took another breath …
"Cough cough cough …" Mo Qiong choked on two mouthfuls of water, but he didn't feel suffocated.
He felt like he drank water and breathed it into his lungs.
He rushed out of the bathtub, and his chest felt even worse. He coughed a few times.
He coughed until his face turned red, and he vomited the water. He only regained his senses after coughing it out.
"What's going on …"
Mo Qiong was a little confused. He dived into the water again, but this time, he didn't drink water. He just needed to hold his breath.
Sure enough, he waited for more than ten minutes, and his expression was normal.
"How is this possible? I don't need to breathe? "
Mo Qiong was shocked. He rushed out of the bathtub and looked at himself in the mirror for a long time to see if he had mutated.
However, he didn't. His body was normal, and there were no extra organs.
"Is this related to my ability? No, no matter what I shot away, I still need to breathe. "
There was no such thing in the past, and he didn't have to hold his breath for a long time.
However, when he thought about it, when he and Zhang He went out to sea, there was no such thing. He still needed to breathe.
"Especially when we were looking for the treasure, the water was very shallow. I didn't even bring an air bottle, and when I couldn't hold it anymore, I floated up to take a breath."
"At that time, I still needed to breathe normally."
Mo Qiong tried to hold his breath again, but this time, he wasn't in the water, but in front of the mirror.
However, it was very uncomfortable to hold it for a minute, and he couldn't hold it for two to three minutes.
He obviously felt suffocated, and hurriedly took a few breaths.
"Eh? Could it be that I know how to breathe underwater? "
Mo Qiong thought, but quickly shook his head. He had to pant to breathe underwater, and he didn't see any bubbles coming out of his body.
He tried again, and this time, he felt it carefully.
After a few minutes, he felt that he wasn't breathing underwater, and there wasn't any air entering his body to provide oxygen, but … he didn't need to breathe.
As long as he was in the water, he could hold it for as long as he wanted, as if the human body didn't need oxygen.
The human body needed oxygen to help produce energy. If he held it for a long time, he would go into shock.
But he didn't. His body wouldn't feel weak because of the lack of oxygen.
"How is this possible …"
Mo Qiong stood in front of the mirror in a daze, deep in thought. Suddenly, he remembered that nightmare.
In the nightmare of drowning in the deep sea, no matter how much he suffocated or how much he was tortured by the water pressure, he would not die. He would only suffer the pain and continue to sink.
Putting aside the pain, in that dream, he didn't need to breathe and wouldn't die from drowning.
"Is it related to that dream?"
"Now that I think about it, that dream was very strange. I had to interrupt it nine times before I could completely shake it off."
"It's the same dream. When I dreamt of Che Yun, it didn't happen. Now that it's interrupted, it can't be continued."
The more Mo Qiong thought about it, the clearer his train of thought became. He did not feel anything when he had the nightmare, but now that he suddenly had an extra ability, he instantly felt that something was wrong.
At the same time, he remembered that the actress was lying on the bed with a pained expression on her face. She seemed to be having a nightmare.
However, it was a dream after all. She didn't take it seriously when she woke up.
At that time, Mo Qiong didn't know either, so he didn't ask.
Now that he thought about it, it was clear that they had encountered the same situation as him.
"I'm like this, he's like this too. This isn't my problem. There must be an external cause …"
Mo Qiong's train of thought became clearer. He thought about the information he got from Che Yun: there were some supernatural things in the world …
"F * ck! That wooden carving. "
Mo Qiong suddenly understood. If there was anything he and the actress had in common, it would be that they had both touched the wooden carving and even slept with it.
This was a pirate's amulet, stored in a separate box. In the eyes of the pirate king, it was more valuable than the so-called crown.
But it wasn't valuable. This was a supernatural item. Perhaps the pirates worshipped it as a statue.
Pulling someone into a dream, causing them to suffer an extremely painful nightmare, and then this person would have the ability to not need to breathe in the water?
"Maybe there's also water pressure. After all, even water pressure couldn't kill me in the dream."
Mo Qiong was shocked. "Is it so easy to find a supernatural item? I just randomly picked up a wooden carving? "
Actually, it wasn't randomly picked up. Mo Qiong thought about it again. This was the most precious item of the Windcloud Pirate King, who had dominated the seas hundreds of years ago. If he hadn't used his ability to lock onto it, this treasure would have been buried for many years.
"No, I have to get the wooden carving back."
Mo Qiong was speechless. He had just casually given this wooden carving away.
He changed his clothes and hurriedly called the actress.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one picked up.
He continued to call. He called four times in a row, but no one picked up.
"It's muted … or she's bathing and can't hear it?"
Mo Qiong frowned. He didn't realize it earlier.
He just had a few nightmares. He really didn't expect it.
Especially this wooden carving. He had observed it many times and really didn't have any abnormalities. Throwing away the worthless artistic image, it was just a damp rotten wood.
Mo Qiong took his phone and went out to search again. He didn't need to ask anyone about the actress's residence. He just threw a strand of hair and followed her.
Soon, he arrived at the fifth floor. This was a luxurious viewing room. It couldn't be the actress's residence.
"This …" Mo Qiong was speechless. He had obviously entered another guest's room.
After thinking for a while, he returned to his room.
Early the next morning, he waited for the actress to come out of the small restaurant on the fifth floor.
However, it wasn't until noon that the actress came out with a man.
Although she had put on makeup, Mo Qiong could still tell that she didn't sleep well last night.
Mo Qiong knew that man. Zhang He had introduced him to him before. His family was in the shipping business and was close to Lin Ran in the industry.
He took out a silver phone and said a few words to the actress. Then, he went to the public balcony to make a call.
The actress went downstairs tiredly. She seemed to want to go back to her room.
Mo Qiong followed her and patted her from behind. "Hi."
"Eh? Hello, boss. "The actress smiled.
"You didn't sleep well last night?" Mo Qiong asked.
"Yeah, I had a scary nightmare." The actress was a little embarrassed.
Mo Qiong smiled. "The wooden carving I gave you last night …"
"Ah! That wooden carving is really valuable. I'm really touched that you gave me something so valuable … "The actress said.
Mo Qiong was stunned. "Valuable?"
The actress said, "It's worth two million. Young Master Yuan liked it a lot and bought it."
"You sold it?" Mo Qiong's face stiffened.
The actress saw Mo Qiong's expression and said softly, "Didn't you give it to me …"
"Why did he buy it for two million?" Mo Qiong asked.
The actress said, "Did he sell it for too little? I saw that he liked it and kept asking about its origins. I told him that it was a family heirloom from the Ming Dynasty. He offered two million. "
"Boss … I hope you don't mind. You were the one who said that you would give it to me. You shouldn't mind the two million, right? At most, I won't film the movie. Please don't tell Young Master Yuan.
Please don't tell him. "She didn't dare to lie. After all, she knew this group of rich people.
If Mo Qiong wanted to take it back, she couldn't do anything. In the end, she would have to obediently return the money or give it to Mo Qiong.
Young Master Yuan liked it. In order to get a high price, she said that it was a family heirloom to prove that it was from the Ming Dynasty.
She didn't expect Young Master Yuan to buy it and give her two million.
She was afraid that Mo Qiong would look for Young Master Yuan. If that happened, she might lose the two million.
However, Mo Qiong said that he wanted to invest in a movie and spend a few million. And she wouldn't get much money from the movie. In comparison, the two million was real. Hence, she would rather Mo Qiong not invest in the movie and hope that Mo Qiong wouldn't expose her.
Mo Qiong took a deep breath and suddenly smiled. "Yeah, that wooden carving was yours. You deserve the two million."
