Chapter 686 A land outside the law
"That's right. Time is running out. Ruan Hei's problem can only be solved on the way." Chen Ziyan nodded and added, "But there's no need to worry too much. Ruan Hei's problem is probably not difficult to solve."

"Master Chen, what do you mean?" Hu Bayi suddenly became interested and asked curiously.

"Think about it, if Ruan Hei's problem is really serious, is it still our turn to solve it?" Chen Ziyan said lightly.

Although he didn't know what problem Ruan Hei had, he was sure of one thing, that is, this problem would not be life-threatening.

Judging from the original plot, if there had not been an accident, Ruan Hei would probably have lived for a long time.

If it was an imminent crisis, Ruan Hei wouldn't be able to wait for them.

"Mr. Chen, how do you know that Ruan Hei's problem is not serious? What if he just got into trouble recently?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

"I don't know. What I said just now was just my guess." Chen Ziyan said nonchalantly, "But I think if Ruan Hei's problem is really serious, he wouldn't consider going out to sea with us."

Of course, the plot cannot be discussed, so Chen Ziyan could only find a random excuse.

Although this statement was a bit far-fetched, no one present would delve into it. It was probably because Wang Kaixuan was not used to using his brain, otherwise this question would not even arise.

After hearing what he said, Wang Kaixuan wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he was stopped by Hu Bayi next to him.

I wasn't paying attention just now and let this idiot ask. I can't make the same mistake again.

Although Hu Bayi knew that Chen Ziyan would not care about these things, no matter how close they were, it was better to avoid such things.

Shirley Yang quickly changed the subject: "Let's go talk to Ruan Hei later and see if we can get anything out of him."

"Okay, it's better to settle things in advance." Chen Ziyan nodded in agreement.

After dinner, Chen Ziyan and his group went to Ruan Hei's home.

Not far from the beach, in front of a shabby-looking house, Chen Ziyan met Ruan Hei's family.

Because of working at sea all year round, the skin color of the three members of this family is very dark. Gu Chai and Duo Ling are relatively better, but their skin color is a darker bronze.

As the head of the family, Ruan Hei really lives up to his name. His skin has been tanned into a dark brown, and from a distance, it looks no different from black.

"Boss, you're looking for me?"

After seeing Chen Ziyan and the others, Ruan Hei, who was weaving a fishing net, put down what he was doing, stood up and asked.

Because he had met Shirley Yang and others, he knew why Chen Ziyan and others came.

"That's right, I would like to ask the master to go out to sea with me." Chen Ziyan did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

After seeing Ruan Hei with his own eyes, he also understood Hu Bayi's concerns. The things on the old fisherman in front of him were too conspicuous, and anyone with a little ability would be able to feel it.

However, he could sense that the thing on Ruan Hei's body was not that fierce, at least it did not cause any harm to Ruan Hei. Otherwise, with such a strong thing, Ruan Hei would have been half dead long ago.

"Still according to the price we agreed on last time?" Ruan Hei asked.

However, although he was asking Chen Ziyan, his eyes were on Shirley Yang.

Apparently, the two sides had already discussed the price during their last meeting. "Let's stick to the price we agreed on last time. If we find what we want, there will be a bonus afterwards." Seeing Ruan Hei looking at her, Shirley Yang said without hesitation.

Although Chen Ziyan was present, according to the rules she shouldn't reply, but given her relationship with Chen Ziyan, she didn't mind it at all.

"Okay, we'll go with you." Hearing this, Ruan He nodded, but also made a request: "But you have to pay half of the deposit in advance. If we can't come back, this is our life-saving money."

"No problem." Chen Ziyan agreed readily.

The place they were going to was so dangerous, so it was normal for them to have concerns. After all, Ruan Hei's family were just ordinary fishermen, not people in their line of work.

No one else had any objection to this and they all tacitly agreed to this request.

After agreeing on the time to go out to sea, Chen Ziyan gave Ruan Hei an extra sum of money and asked him to prepare whatever he thought he would need.

After his recent experience of going to sea, he knew that these people who have been at sea for many years knew a lot of relevant secrets, some of which he could not think of, so it would be better to pay the other party to do it for him.

After leaving Ruan Hei's house, Hu Bayi said, "It seems that Ruan Hei doesn't plan to take the girl with him this time."

This is easy to analyze. If the whole family goes, there is no need for him to ask for resettlement money in advance.

But he could also understand it. After all, this trip to the sea was so dangerous, it was normal that people didn't want their daughter to take the risk with them.

"No, he will take the girl with him." Chen Ziyan shook his head, and then said, "He wants resettlement money because he is afraid that no one will pay him."

Although going out to sea is dangerous, with Gu Cai as the dragon household, safety can be guaranteed as long as you don't act recklessly.

But if they leave a young girl here alone and they are gone for a long time, that would be real danger.

Although there is not much description of this island in the original book, its location is destined to be a gathering place for all kinds of people. It is no exaggeration to say that there are all kinds of people here.

There has never been any order in places like this. People like Ruan Hei have seen too much darkness, and he would not feel comfortable letting Duoling stay on the island alone.

Chen Ziyan just noticed that the scars on Ruan Hei and Gu Cai were not only caused by fish and beasts in the sea, but more by human weapons.

"Hey, this old guy still looks down on men!" Wang Kaixuan immediately shouted.

He hadn't looked down on Ruan Hei yet, but he didn't expect that he would be looked down upon by the other party first.

"It's normal that they look down on us. After all, we don't have much experience."

Hu Bayi was not angry, because their image was there and the old sea wolf could tell at a glance that they were not people who made a living on the water.

He was more concerned about another question now: "Master Chen, is this island really that chaotic?"

Hu Bayi immediately heard the hidden meaning behind Chen Ziyan's words.

However, they had been here for a while and did not notice how chaotic it was here, so they were a little confused as to how Chen Ziyan came to this conclusion.

"Chaos? This place is completely lawless!" Chen Ziyan said without hesitation, and pointed out the problem: "You don't feel anything because you are the sponsors. You are here to give money to the people here, so naturally you need to treat them well."
