They talked and walked out of the city. Dian Wei praised, "You do know a lot, Young Master."
At this moment, they saw a dock in the distance, where countless boats were docked. Lu Fei said, "Let's go that way. There are too many people there."
The three of them walked past the pier. Many people on the ship saw Zou Yuzhi's beauty and stared straight at her. Zou Yuzhi hid beside Lu Fei and thought to herself that she had forgotten to wear her veil when she came out. These people were really despicable, always staring at her.
Lu Fei thought that ancient women were indeed simple. If it were the twenty-first century, many women would've hated that all the men were staring at them. However, intimidated by Dian Wei's size, none of them dared to provoke him. They walked to the beach that Lu Fei pointed at, only to find that there were already a lot of people there. Most of them were young men who were swimming in the sea with their arms bared like big, agile fish.
The three of them put on their wetsuits, and Lu Fei jumped into the water first. Dian Wei shouted, "I can't swim." Lu Fei laughed and pulled him into the water. "You'll be able to swim when you get down." Dian Wei's head was still above the water although he was two meters deep. Lu Fei said, "You'll stay here and swim with both hands and feet."
At this moment, Zou Yuzhi walked carefully into the water. After a few steps, she squatted and picked up the shells in the water. "There are a lot of shells here." Lu Fei stepped forward and hugged her. He jumped into the sea and said, "Come and swim. What's so good about shells?"
Zou Yuzhi shrieked, "I don't know how to swim."
Lu Fei grabbed her waist and said, "I'll teach you. Try to swim first. Don't worry. I'll catch you."
Zou Yuzhi asked, "How do I swim?"
Lu Fei said, "With both hands and feet. Look like this." Then he let go of Zou Yuzhi and made a movement in the water for her to follow. Fortunately, the water Zou Yuzhi was in was not deep, and her feet could still stand on the beach. Seeing Lu Fei paddling away, she immediately panicked and shouted, "Wait for me." After saying that, he kicked the water with his hands and feet, but it didn't take long for him to sink into the water. He almost drank a mouthful of seawater. Dian Wei followed Lu Fei's example. He was so strong that he immediately floated after he waved his hands in the water. Dian Wei shouted, "I can swim! I can swim!" Finished speaking, he kicked the water with his hands and feet. He felt that he was much weaker than when he was on land, but he could still exert his strength. He immediately flopped in the water a few times and swam after Lu Fei.
Lu Fei swam a circle and returned to Zou Yuzhi. He said, "I'll hold you in the water. Try to swim with your hands and feet." He immediately dived into the water and lifted Zou Yuzhi from her waist. Zou Yuzhi used both her hands and feet to paddle forward. Lu Fei, on the other hand, released his hands from time to time. Whenever he saw Zou Yuzhi sinking, he would immediately lift her waist again. After a long time, when Lu Fei accidentally released his hands, Zou Yuzhi was finally able to float on her own.
Lu Fei immediately rushed ahead of her and stuck his head out of the water. Zou Yuzhi was shocked to find that she could swim a long distance. She said delightedly, "I know how to swim. That's how it works." She did not dare to stop, fearing that she would sink if she did. She could only keep swimming forward. Lu Fei followed her and said, "I'll teach you how to tread water now. If you learn how to tread water, you'll be able to stand in the water, and it won't be so tiring."
Zou Yuzhi accepted it gladly. Lu Fei taught her more tricks. At this moment, Dian Wei was already able to swim freely in the water, but there was no telling where he had gone. Lu Fei found that more and more people were swimming around. There seemed to be other young people besides the young people just now, but they were in the water far away, so Lu Fei did not think much of them.
At this moment, Dian Wei suddenly cried for help far away. "Water ghost! Water ghost!" He then sank into the water and did not rise until a while later. He shouted again, "Help!" Lu Fei knew that he was invincible on the ground, but he couldn't do it in the water. He immediately swam over and dived into the water when he was close. He vaguely saw that a few people were disappearing in the distance. Dian Wei finally stepped on the surface of the water and gasped. "I was so scared."
Lu Fei asked, "What happened?" He looked back and saw that Zou Yuzhi was swimming in the water. Lu Fei said, "Let's go over and talk about it."
Following Lu Fei, Dian Wei said, "Something seemed to have entangled my feet just now."
Lu Fei said, "Maybe it's some trash in the water …" Before he could finish his words, he saw that Zou Yuzhi's figure had disappeared, and the young man swimming in the distance had also disappeared. Lu Fei immediately knew that something was wrong. He quickly dived into the water and swam around, but he did not find Zou Yuzhi's figure. It could be seen that she did not sink into the water, but must have been captured by someone.
Thousands of thoughts flashed in Lu Fei's head. Was it Zou Yuzhi's enemy? Or was it his enemy? The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. He tried to calm himself down, thinking that one of the young men he saw had a dragon embroidered on his back. Someone must've known him since he was often in the sea.
Dian Wei also noticed that something was wrong. "Miss Zou is gone."
Lu Fei said, "Let's go to the dock and ask." Immediately, he swam ashore with Dian Wei. Lu Fei tore off his wetsuit and rushed to the dock. He stopped a boatman and gave him a few coins. "Boatman, do you know anyone who has a dragon embroidered on his back?"
Accepting Lu Fei's money, the boatman thought hard for a while and said, "No. You can ask the hotel over there. People often come and go there. Maybe someone has seen it."
Lu Fei gave him some more money and went to the hotel with Dian Wei. The waiter was busying himself attentively. Lu Fei pulled him aside and stuffed a gold ingot into his hand. "Have you ever seen a man with a dragon embroidered on his back?"
The waiter was given an ingot of gold for no apparent reason. He didn't know what was going on, but his heart was pounding. After thinking for a while, he said, "I often see a person with a dragon embroidered on his back come to eat. That person seems to be a salt trader. He often comes with a big ship. What's the flag on the ship?"
Lu Fei said, "Think carefully. If you figure it out, the gold is yours."
The waiter was surprised. "Really?"
