"A huge monster shot out from under the sea and sent the boat flying."
"Chairman, all I heard was Brother Biao's last shout… something about a 'dragon.' I was too scared, I didn't have time to think. I just swam for it. I don't know if I was just lucky, but the Sea Beast didn't chase me." On the shore, a man with a deathly pale face and a runny nose sniffled, speaking with lingering fear.
Zou Jianghe's face was devoid of expression.
He had brought a few of his trusted followers over as soon as he received the news last night.
The tide hadn't gone out yet, and with the sea being so deep, it was too dangerous.
No one dared to go into the water.
The salvage and rescue operation had to be postponed.
It wasn't until dawn, when the tide receded, that the wreckage of the boat floating on the surface washed up on the mudflats.
"Zou Jianghe, this is all your fault!" He Biao's wife shrieked, her finger nearly poking him in the face.
