Enjoying the sense of security of holding the strange money in his hand, Fang Tianling took the opportunity to ask Si Tiantian for the money to buy the clues and information.

Si Tiantian directly gave her 40 ghost notes.

Fang Tianling's eyes lit up, "Is the fourth one also included for me?"

"If you don't want it, then give it back to me?"

Si Tiantian pretended to take it back, but Fang Tianling quickly dodged and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes, yes. Of course I won't give it up. Thank you, boss, you are so generous."

Fang Tianling was so happy with 240 yuan worth of banknotes in her hand that the smile was welded on her face and could not be peeled off.

Li Huaijue watched eagerly, feeling extremely envious.

Here, Si Tiantian also noticed that Rong Xiu, who had disappeared for a while, had returned. She looked at his dirty clothes curiously and asked, "Where did you go? Why are you so dirty?"

Rong Xiu pursed her lips and subconsciously raised her hand to pat the dust off her clothes.

Tong Ziqi, who had returned behind him, grinned and chattered excitedly, "We saw too many people and couldn't squeeze in, so we wandered around. Luckily, we came across the Sea Goddess Temple that the villagers were talking about, but the gate was closed, and there were villagers guarding outside to prevent us from getting close. So we could only wander around outside, and guess what, we found a dog hole!"

Si Tiantian's curiosity was aroused. "And then you went in?"

Tong Ziqi was so excited that he nodded without hesitation. "Yes, I got in. I remember when I was little, I would sneak out through the dog hole in the school with a few classmates to buy fried sausages from the roadside stalls. The dog hole skills were so good, and the fried sausages tasted so delicious. It's not like now, where all they sell are starch sausages with not much meat, and they rely on flour to make up for it. The taste is far worse than those roadside stalls back then."

Tong Ziqi, who had no idea that the topic had gone off track, had a nostalgic and somewhat reminiscent expression on his face. Si Tiantian, the audience, was also quite supportive and joined him in reminiscing about the big fried sausages outside the school.

Unfortunately, she was so poor at that time that she couldn't even afford steamed buns, let alone sausages, which were only eaten by favored children from other families. In the end, she could only squat beside other people's stalls every day, eating steamed buns with the aroma of fried sausages.

The proprietress was also hard-hearted. She squatted there from the beginning of the school year to the end of the semester, but didn't get any benefit at all.

After feeling regretful for a few seconds, she looked at Rong Xiu again. She didn't expect that the big villain would also crawl through a dog hole. Did he practice this when he was a child?

(?2?7w?2?7)~~Stare——

Noticing her gaze, Rong Xiu's dark and deep eyes looked over at her.

Si Tiantian immediately retracted her gaze, straightened her back, and pretended to be a serious person.

"Well, what did you find after you got in?"

Tong Ziqi's happy heart thumped, but then he fell back to where he was. He said with a somewhat frustrated tone, "I didn't find anything. It was just a black fog inside. Brother Rong's ability to find the way out didn't work. I could only find a dog hole and climb out again."

Si Tiantian glanced at him and said, "There's no need to be so depressed. The presence of black fog proves that this Sea Goddess Temple is indeed extraordinary. There is black fog outside this small fishing village, but there is no black fog inside the small fishing village. Now that a place with black fog has appeared, maybe the Sea Goddess Temple is the source of the black fog."

Rong Xiu turned his head to look at her, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, just as he thought.

Tong Ziqi's eyes sparkled and widened. "That makes sense. Does that mean we can dispel the black fog by simply destroying the Sea Goddess Temple?"

Si Tiantian: "Don't worry, I just made a bold assumption. Next we have to carefully verify it. We need to explore further."

Tong Ziqi was anxious, "But we can't get in. This means we're back to square one."

Si Tiantian rubbed her chin, thinking about how to get in. Just then, a villager at the dock called out, "This batch of seafood must first be offered to the Sea Goddess. A few more people will move the things to the Sea Goddess Temple. Each trip costs 1 Guibi..."

Si Tiantian's eyes lit up, "Here comes the opportunity."

So she pulled Rong Xiu and hurried over to sign up.

Tong Ziqi and Lin Fangyi also hurriedly ran to catch up.

Li Huaijue was about to go over there, but Fang Tianling stopped him. "You're still injured and you want to move? Do you value money over your life?"

Li Huaijue was stunned for a moment. He didn't seem to feel any pain from the wound on his foot anymore. He subconsciously lifted up his trouser leg and took a look at the bloody hole bitten by the piranha. A look of surprise appeared in his eyes. "It's already scabbed over."

Then he rolled up the sleeve of his arm, and the bloody hole on it had scabbed over.

Fang Tianling came over and took a closer look, staring in surprise, "Isn't the wound healing too fast? Did you use any healing items?"

Li Huaijue's gentle face was filled with confusion. He shook his head and said, "No, I don't have such a healing item."

"That is how the matter?"

The healing speed of this wound is obviously abnormal.

The two looked at each other for a while, and finally ran over to sign up.

"Enough people, enough people, no more."

The old fisherman who had just been calling for workers waved his wrinkled hands, his sun-spotted face showing an impatient expression, "Go away, go away. Come back early next time."

Fang Tianling sighed in regret and glared at Li Huaijue. It was all this guy's fault, otherwise she could have made some more money today. One ghost note is still a ghost note!

Li Huaijue touched his nose uncomfortably, feeling a little embarrassed. He asked tentatively, "When we get out, I'll treat you to a meal?"

Fang Tianling then smiled happily and agreed immediately, "Then I want to eat at a five-star hotel. Although your background is a bit strange, you are still a rich young master. You should be able to afford a five-star hotel, right?"

Li Huaijue's mouth twitched. He had never seen such an impolite and aggressive girl. Oh, no, his newly adopted eldest niece seemed to have the same personality. No wonder the two of them got along so well.

"Okay, let's go to a five-star hotel. You and Tiantian can come with us then."

"Sure, sure. As long as we can eat, I don't care how many people are eating with us."

Li Huaijue saw her so happy, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes. When he invited Xu Miaoyi to a high-end restaurant for dinner, in order to take her pride into consideration, he never invited his friends, and the meal was so quiet...

A bitter smile appeared on his face, but it quickly disappeared. He followed Si Tiantian who was carrying a large basket of fish.

"Uncle will help you carry it over."

Si Tiantian shook her head, weighed the basket in her hand easily, and smiled, showing her small white teeth. "No need, I'm strong, and it's not difficult to carry this basket. Uncle, your injury is not healed yet, you should rest."

After she finished speaking, she rushed out at a speed that was much faster than her normal jog. In a short while, she became the most beautiful one among the porters.
