As soon as Li Yang stepped onto the deck, the Ghost Willow Ship rocked or trembled more violently, almost making it difficult for the others to stand.

Li Yang stomped his foot on the Ghost Willow Boat in annoyance and said impatiently, "What are you shaking for? Be quiet!"
moment.
The Ghost Willow Boat, which had been shaking violently, calmed down and remained motionless, just as stable as the wooden crates on the dock!
Bai Wu was shocked once again, feeling that his worldview was on the verge of collapse.

The group then arrived at the locked secret compartment door, where Li Yang flicked his finger on the large padlock.
His fingertips were covered in Armament Haki, which shattered the lock into several pieces, which fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Bai Wu was completely dumbfounded.
My Goddess Mazu, how much strength does that take?
The hatch opens.
moment.
A wisp of yin energy, resembling black mist and fully materialized, roared out from the cabin.
The black mist also echoed with the howls of vengeful ghosts.
The eerie sound filled my ears and chilled me to the bone!
Bai Wu was completely stunned.
But suddenly they discovered that after the black mist rushed out of the cabin, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier when it approached Li Yang!
Li Yang seemed to be surrounded by a flowing heat, and the cold yin energy that approached him was instantly melted away.

Once the black mist has mostly dissipated.
Then they heard a sound coming from inside the cabin. Listening carefully, it sounded like someone was chanting "Amitabha Buddha"!
Bai Wu's expression changed again, and the others also looked somewhat shocked.
Fatty Wang asked bluntly, "Did you hear someone chanting Amitabha Buddha inside?"
Lei Xianming nodded. People on Hong Kong Island believe in this the most and are somewhat afraid of the cabin.
Although he had heard from Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang how powerful Li Yang was, he had never seen it with his own eyes. The bizarre scene before him made him have some doubts about Li Yang's strength.
.... .. ...
Seeing his cowardly appearance, Li Yang explained with a smile:
"Don't worry, there aren't that many scary things in this secret compartment!"
"The so-called sea ghost is actually a special kind of sea stone flower, which can specifically absorb the yin energy emitted by the ghost willow!"
"The yin energy contained in the thousand-year-old sea willow is too heavy, so once a ship made of sea willow is on the sea, the yin energy in the sea will surge to every corner of the ship through the flow of seawater!"
"If a person stays in a place with abundant yin energy for a long time, not only will their body be unable to withstand it, but they will also suffer from inexplicable illnesses!"
"These yin energies can also attract unclean things at sea, causing accidents to the crew!"
"But the sea stone flower can absorb the yin energy emanating from the ghost willow, weakening its influence on the crew and preventing them from falling seriously ill or dying."
Hearing Li Yang's explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Fatty Wang asked curiously, "Then who was chanting 'Amitabha' just now?"
Li Yang explained again: "There is a magical creature in the sea called 'Sea Monk'. It looks like a fish and a shrimp. This fish is an amphibian that can survive out of water. It feeds on the black water that is formed after the sea stone flower absorbs yin energy!"
"When the monk Hai is captured, he will kowtow and beg for mercy, making gurgling sounds, as if he is chanting Amitabha!"
“These creatures are intelligent enough to know I’m here, so they kowtow and beg for mercy, hoping to save their lives!”
Li Yang's words sounded incredibly profound.
When everyone entered the cabin, they saw a patch of black water several centimeters high on the ground, and a dozen strange creatures, half fish and half shrimp, lined up and kowtowing towards the cabin door!
As Li Yang changed direction, the monks, like sunflowers following the sun, also changed their position and continued to kowtow.
Everyone was amazed.

...
Then, the group discovered a huge, bizarre shell in the cabin, which resembled a blooming begonia flower.
This is a special sea stone flower that can absorb yin energy!
Beside the seaweed flowers, there were more than a dozen mummies, which had not decomposed because they had been soaked in the heavy yin energy here.
at this time.
A dozen or so mummies, along with the sea stone flowers, were trembling. As Li Yang approached, their trembling intensified!
Bai Wu immediately recognized the mummies and exclaimed, "My God, they're the same group of Englishmen from back then! How come they're still on the ship?"
Li Yang smiled and said, "Naturally, someone has trapped them here, because only in this way can the sea stone flowers be nourished to continue growing!"
"The black water that the sea stone flower expels after absorbing yin energy can spread to every corner of the ship, just like a bulletproof coating, making the ship more sturdy!"
Li Yang stared at the mummies and whispered, "You can take this ship with you and sail out to sea with us. Once we've gotten what we want, I'll send you away!"
Bai Wu paused for a moment, then quietly approached Fatty Wang and asked, "Fatty, what's going on with the handsome boss?"
Fatty Wang, with a smug expression, said proudly, "Brother Li is ordering the vengeful ghosts here to work for us!"
Bai Wu was stunned, looking at Li Yang as if he were a god!

Chapter 108 Ghost Blood Ship! A berserk dragon sucks up water! A single punch flattens the sea!
Seaweed can absorb the yin energy from the ghost willow, forming a special yin magnetic field that traps the souls on the ship like a cage.
But it is precisely because of these souls that the Ghost Willow Ship can sail through towering waves as if on flat ground!
A spell similar to the Five Ghosts Moving Money!
Li Yang promised that as long as the souls of these Englishmen could help them complete their mission to the Coral Spiral, they would be sent to the underworld upon their return.
For these ghosts, Li Yang's promise as a ferryman of souls was like golden advice, so they naturally agreed happily.
As for the mummified British man in the cabin, Li Yang instructed Bai Wu to have his men clean it up and bury it somewhere on the island, so that it could be considered a proper burial.
Bai Wu revered Li Yang like a god, and obediently carried out Li Yang's instructions to complete the task. He also helped Li Yang and his group buy the Ghost Willow Ship at a very fair price.
Hu Bayi leaned close to Li Yang and whispered, "Uncle Ming is a desperate criminal, an old swindler, and a gambling addict. He's full of opportunistic ideas. As long as he can make money, there's no deed he wouldn't dare to do!"
"So we can't rely on him to lead us to Coral Spiral. It would be best to hire a few people locally, especially a reliable helmsman!"
Li Yang has no problem with it.
Bai Wu patted his chest and guaranteed that he would definitely find the most suitable helmsman for Li Yang!
then.
The three characters appear in the story: Ruan Hei and his two disciples, a man and a woman. The man is named Gu Cai, and the woman is named Duo Ling.
Li Yang knew Gu Cai's true identity: a descendant of the Kingdom of Hatred, a true Tanka person with a special physique who could hold his breath underwater for a long time and swim as nimbly as a fish.
As for Doreen, she is a little girl with big eyes and French blood.
After signing the employment contract, Ruan Hei saw Hu Bayi and the others tidying up the cabin and offered to help.
then.
He took a package and went straight to the secret compartment at the bottom of the ship.
Upon seeing that the secret chamber, originally used to worship the sea demon, was wide open, Ruan Hei screamed in fright, dropping the package on the ground to reveal the incense burner, paper money, and offerings for the "July 23rd" festival inside.
Then he ran up to the deck in a panic.
Hearing his shouts, the others went down into the cabin and immediately understood what was going on.
Ruan Heina's face, which was often tanned by the wind and rain at sea, turned pale with fright and lost all color.
Upon seeing Bai Wu, he strongly demanded that the commission be refunded and the employment relationship terminated.
Bai Wu pulled Ruan Hei aside, and the two whispered to each other in their local dialect, glancing at Li Yang from time to time.
Ruan Hei looked at Li Yang with eyes full of shock!
[Happiness percentage +1%]
Then he approached the door of the secret compartment with trembling steps and cautiously peeked inside.
Apart from the flamboyant sea stone flowers and the layer of black water on the floor, there seemed to be nothing unusual.
It's just a bit chilly at most!
Ruan Hei calmed down, and his eyes shone brightly!
He had just heard about Li Yang's amazing abilities from Bai Wu. With such a capable person protecting him, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to go to the Coral Spiral Sea to collect pearls?
His pearl-diving skills finally found a purpose!
Later on, Ruan Hei became extremely respectful to Li Yang, even making Gu Cai and Duo Ling kowtow to Li Yang, begging him to take better care of the two children.
Everything is ready.
The next morning, the sky was bright and clear.
Lei Xianming volunteered to be the captain and steered the "Trident" salvage vessel towards the sea.
Trident was the name Shirley Yang gave to the Ghost Willow Ship.
For two days in a row, there was no movement on the sea, the wind was calm and the waves were still, and occasionally you could see deep-sea fishing vessels operating at sea.
on the deck.
Hu Bayi moved closer to Li Yang.
“Yesterday evening, I looked out to sea and saw dark clouds looming over the eastern sea fog. Something big seemed to be brewing within the clouds; this was the condensation of sea vapor!”
"I'm worried that the weather at sea will change soon!"
As Hu Bayi was speaking, a white mist suddenly rose from the sea.
At first there was only a thin, hazy mist, but later it suddenly turned into a thick fog!
This fog is strange; it hangs above the sea, only a dozen meters high. When you look out from the ship, the sea fog and the sky are clearly distinct!
Worried that something was wrong, Hu Bayi hurriedly ran into the cabin to ask Lei Xianming what was going on.
Lei Xianming, as expected of an old sea wolf, was already showing signs of drunkenness, with a bottle of baijiu beside him while he was steering the ship.
Seeing Hu Bayi's worried expression, Lei Xianming burst into laughter.
"There's nothing to be alarmed about. It's just advection fog at sea. Although the visibility is a bit low, we're the only ship on the entire sea, so there's no need to worry about any accidents!"
"The fog will clear up by tomorrow morning at the latest, I know that!"
Seeing that he was drunk and dazed, Hu Bayi simply had Peter Huang help Lei Xianming to the cabin to rest, and let Ruan Hei take the helm.
Ruan Hei hurriedly ran up from the cabin and happened to see Li Yang standing at the door of the bridge, looking out at the sea.
He respectfully greeted him as "Mr. Li".
Li Yang nodded and said, "Keep a firm grip on the helm and don't panic no matter what happens!"
Ruan Hei was startled and wanted to ask Li Yang if he had foreseen any danger, but when he remembered what Bai Wu had told him about Mr. Li's miraculous abilities, he dared not ask any more questions. He subconsciously bowed as a sign of respect and hurriedly climbed into the cockpit to take over the helm from Lei Xianming!
at this time.
