Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 185 Everyone mobilizes
Shi Xia was unaware of what was happening in China at the moment; she was busy wrapping up the work.

At the auction held by Joss, the amulet was sold for a high price by him and Mark, while those who were invited didn't even get a glimpse of it.

Fortunately, they were somewhat skeptical of this Master Xia, but they still participated in other items at the auction, so their trip wasn't entirely in vain.

After the auction, Joss gave all the proceeds to Master Xia. With Mark's help, the money was converted into gold and sent over.

Shi Xia glanced at it and nodded in satisfaction.

"You did a great job."

In short, Joss and Mark were overjoyed; they had finally secured a powerful patron, Master Xia.

That evening, both Little Eagle and Little Gold came over.

The two creatures worked perfectly with Shi Xia, taking away the treasures that Shi Xia ostensibly used for magic, which she actually kept for herself, and taking them to the beach.

And recently, under the pretext of recuperation, she secretly stole refined nickel.

As for the remaining batch of gold, Shi Xia planned to take it away openly and honestly.

The next morning, Master Xia was leaving.

Joss and Mark, who hadn't left yet, rushed over and tried their best to persuade him to stay.

"You two need not do this. I am a wanderer of the world. If you need anything, contact Jin Kaiwen. Jin Kaiwen knows how to find me."

Joss and Mark dared not offend Master Xia, but fortunately, Master Xia had left his contact information, which was better than losing contact altogether.

The two expressed their utmost admiration and respect, and personally sent a car to escort Master Xia away.

The car drove on, and the two men personally escorted Master Xia onto the ship.

Master Xia sailed the boat alone, and the boat sailed out of the dock.

Neither Joss nor Mark had the guts to send anyone to follow them.

The two turned to look at Jin Kaiwen, their attitudes improving considerably.

"Jin Kaiwen, we must keep in touch from now on."

"Yes, yes, yes, come visit me anytime. I'll definitely welcome you with open arms."

Jin Kaiwen spent more than ten days with Master Xia, which broadened his horizons. He was able to calmly deal with the two powerful figures without appearing arrogant.

The three chatted happily and then left the shore.

Upon boarding the ship, the first thing Shi Xia did was inspect the entire vessel.

She brought the seawater up and used her water powers to thoroughly inspect the ship inside and out.

Fortunately, no one did anything wrong.

After Shi Xia made up her mind, she finally took off her mask. If she hadn't rarely gone out, her entire face would probably have been tanned beyond recognition.

Shi Xia steered the boat towards the waters off China.

In the waters off China, at the hidden cave of the sea turtle Lao Liu, Shi Xi disembarks to hide gold and treasures.

This time, she wanted to take some nickel back with her, but she would gladly keep the rest of the treasures.

In a few rounds, Shi Xia had hidden all the treasures and gold. Using her supernatural abilities, she created a protective shield and swam upstream back to the ship.

She caught a bucket of fish and threw them into the air one by one. Little Eagle and Little Gold took turns flying down and snatching them away.

Later, the two stopped flying altogether and came down to ride the boat with Shi Xia.

These past few days, thanks to the two of them, Shi Xia has been well-fed with her supernatural abilities. Looking at the two, she said, "They've gotten heavier again. Will they still be able to fly if they get any heavier?"

Two birds, one black and one gold, looked at Shi Xia from the left and right, then turned their heads, flapped their wings, and flew away.

It seems to be saying: Look, look, look! Who can't fly!

Shi Xia laughed heartily, in a good mood.

The boat sailed back, and halfway there, Xia caught some fish, including a few large lobsters and grouper.

On the boat, Shi Xia wore a dried seaweed hat she had woven herself. There was a makeshift stone barbecue grill on the deck, where she grilled grouper, oysters, lobsters, and sweet sea urchins—basically anything that tasted good. On the way back, Shi Xia didn't encounter any patrol ships, so she simply returned to Hai San Island first.

Everyone was sure to welcome her again. Shi Xia had already stood up, raised her hand, and was ready to wave to everyone.

As a result, when her large ship approached Hai San Island, not a single person came to pick her up.

What about people?

With a wave of her hand, Shi Xia sent Little Eagle and Little Gold into flight. She jumped off the high boat and ran towards the village.

nobody!
Still no one!
Where are the people from the three islands?

Just as Shi Xia was getting worried, she finally saw people.

"Uncle Three!"

Upon hearing the name "Third Uncle," the village's third uncle looked up abruptly.

"Tokika!"

"Shi Xia, you're finally back!"

Uncle San was in tears, extremely anxious, with an expression of having found his pillar of support. Shi Xia's heart skipped a beat; something had happened.

"Third Uncle, speak slowly and explain clearly."

"Hey!"

Uncle wiped away his tears and organized his thoughts.

“Your Uncle Wen and Aunt Wen have been taken away. They said they were taken away for investigation, but we don’t know what they’re investigating. All we know is that they haven’t come back after two days. Village Chief Cao was worried, so he took the villagers to the army. We don’t have any special skills, but we thought that since we have a lot of people, we could make them listen to us.”

Shi Xia understood.

She couldn't fathom why anyone would want to investigate Uncle Wen and his aunt.

"On Haiming Island?"

"Correct!"

"I understand, Uncle. You take good care of the house, and I will definitely bring them back!"

A resolute glint flashed in Shi Xia's eyes. If she couldn't bring it back, she would cause a huge uproar!

Shi Xia left, and Uncle San was terrified. He called out anxiously, "Be careful!"

Shi Xia raised her hand, and then quickly disappeared.

Little Eagle and Little Gold followed behind her. Shi Xia jumped onto the boat and used her superpower to propel it forward. A buzzing sound rang out, and waves surged, just like her anger.

Haiming Island.

Behind Uncle Cao were all the elders and villagers of Hai San Island, except for those guarding the islands, from his 98-year-old great-grandfather to the babies still a few months old in his arms.

Not for any other reason than Shi Xia, who always stood in front of them.

This time, it's their turn to protect Shi Xia!
“Fellow villagers, you can’t solve any problems here, and I can’t tell you what happened. Go back, the organization will investigate and will definitely not wrong an innocent person.”

Uncle Cao took the lead. Although he hadn't seen much of the world, he would never wrong an innocent person. That statement is utter nonsense!

Throughout history, countless loyal ministers and generals have been wronged. They all knew they were being wronged, but what was the final outcome?
It didn't even lead to the destruction of their families and the loss of their loved ones.

"Battalion Commander Cheng, we're not leaving! We won't leave until we see them today!"

Battalion Commander Cheng was helpless. He was helping Wen Cheng'an, but with discipline and rules in mind, he still kept a stern face.

"Village Chief Cao, do you still want to be the village chief? What you're doing is only making things more difficult. Please trust me, we will guarantee fairness and impartiality!"

Those were soldiers he had personally trained! He cherished them more than anyone else.

Village Chief Cao said completely unconcerned, "Whatever, even if you strip me, I'll still stand here. I'm standing here simply because I'm a member of Hai San Island!"

"Yes, we are from Hai San Island!"

"Give us back our people from the three islands!"
