Chapter 161 The Messenger
"In today's era, technology is so advanced that sometimes we can't even trust people's faces. The symbol of Captain Sky is his armor. If you can't show it, how can you prove that you are not an imitator?"
Yu Rui retorted not to be outdone.
"No, you forgot that Captain Sky has another symbol."
Lu Cheng said without looking back.
"What is it?"
"rich!"
Lu Cheng curled his lips and said.
"This... but judging from your embarrassed appearance, you don't have any money?"
Yu Rui asked.
"This is easy to handle! If you lend me a mobile phone, I can attract tens of millions of sponsorships to your village with just one phone call."
Lu Cheng said.
"But why do we need sponsorship?"
someone asked.
"Of course it is to develop a tourist area! Of course, if you are not willing to open it freely, you can limit the number of places and set up a VIP travel line, with twenty places per year. In any case, airports, highways, hotels, etc. are all needed
Isn’t it money?”
Lu Cheng stretched out his finger and planned the future for everyone present.
"Hahaha, some people used to say that Mr. Lu is not only a hero who sacrifices his life for justice, but also a businessman with unique vision! I really believe it now!"
The village chief sitting at the top said with a smile.
"Mr. Lu, the signal tower on the island can only contact the main island and several other sub-islands, and the only one was destroyed in the attack just now.'
Someone said.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"Mr. Lu's idea is very good, but our current life is very good when we return to Langdao! We are all nostalgic and unwilling to make any changes."
The village chief said.
"Yeah! I can see that."
Lu Cheng glanced around. The men wearing ancient clothes and the wooden buildings looked like they were in an environment a thousand years ago.
"But apart from that, I really do have something I want to ask of you!"
As the village chief spoke, he took out a sealed paper bag from his sleeve and handed it into Lu Cheng's hand.
"What's this?"
Lu Cheng took it and said doubtfully.
"This is a handwritten letter I just wrote. I want Luo Qiu to send it to the main island so that the island owner of the main island can personally sign it."
The village chief explained.
"A handwritten letter must be very important!"
Lu Cheng thought.
"Indeed, this matter not only involves the life and death of us survivors, but also the fate of the whole world. Therefore, I hope Mr. Lu can also accompany Luo Qiu. The island owner has a very stubborn temper. Maybe if you are here
, I will listen more to the advice.”
The village chief stood up and said seriously.
"Okay! I'm worried that I won't have the chance to repay you for your life-saving grace! I'll go!"
Lu Cheng nodded.

In the early morning, when the sky just showed a hint of red clouds, a few figures boarded the boat at the northern pier of Huilang Island.
To Lu Cheng's surprise, the residents on the island seemed to be living a relatively backward life, but the boat they prepared had a serious internal combustion engine, and the whole body had a shiny metal shell, making it look very new.
There were also fishing nets, harpoons, and barbed spearguns piled in the cabin, which seemed to be mounted on a steam launcher. They were fully equipped for fishing at sea.
But this time I am just going to the main island to deliver a message, so these things are probably not going to be used.
Lu Cheng sat in the cabin and looked around.
There were four other people on board the boat together. Luo Qiu brought two young men who were practicing martial arts with swords, and the other person was Yu Rui who was holding a mace.
"The name of the main island is Chitose Island. It is located 450 nautical miles north of Huilang Island. We must get there before sunset today."
Luo Qiu explained while starting the engine.
"That's pretty rough. We seem to be traveling against the ocean current, so we probably won't be able to go any faster."
Lu Cheng said.
"You don't understand this, foreigner, the ocean currents here are not static. If you want to go fast, you have to know the nature of the water!"
Yu Rui stood in front of the guardrail of the deck, looking towards the north and muttering.
————————————————————————————————
The ship sailed all the way north along the chart, with the white waves splitting and trailing two long wakes behind the propeller.
After noon, Lu Cheng was woken up and everyone on the boat was given food and water.
"This is the most common tuna and squid slices in this sea area, and the water is mountain spring water on the highest peak of Huilang Island."
Luo Qiu explained while chewing.
"Well, it tastes good. How far are we from Chitose Island?"
Lu Cheng looked to the north and saw that the sea was still endless, with no boundaries in sight.
"There are still about one hundred and fifty nautical miles, we must speed up."
Luo Qiu finished his lunch in a few moments, then stood up and walked towards the engine room.
Lu Cheng nodded, turned his gaze inadvertently, and looked under the cabin.
His expression suddenly changed.
"Luo Qiu, what is that? Red."
Lu Cheng stood up.
"Is it a blood wave?"
He immediately thought of it.
Luo Qiu stopped, turned around and walked to the edge of the deck, lowered his head and observed.
"No, there shouldn't be blood waves here. And the blood waves are crimson, and the red here is dark red."
He analyzed.
Hearing this, Yu Rui looked at him with disdain.
"What's crimson, dark red? Is this obviously the blood of sea fish? Of course, I don't blame you if you don't know Luo Qiu. Who told you that your grandfather always raised you as a little girl, even if you were locked up on the island?
Go to sea often."
Luo Qiu's expression changed slightly, and she became a little angry.
"The blood of sea fish? There is no village in front of this place and no shop in the back. Is there a fleet fishing here?"
Lu Cheng asked.
"Normally speaking, running so far outweighs the gains and losses, but if it is an abnormal situation, it is not necessarily the case. For example..."
Yu Rui took the call.
"Such as getting lost in a shipwreck!"
Luo Qiu suddenly thought of it.
"Well, your reaction is quite smart this time."
Yu Rui took a sip of mountain spring water and tightened the bottle.
"Shipwreck...could it be..."
Lu Cheng thought about it, his heart skipping a beat.
"Luo Qiu, I want to follow these blood stains to see some of my companions last night..."
he immediately requested.
"This is not possible, we are also very tight on time, and since you are the captain of the sky, shouldn't your companions be superheroes? You can do anything in the sky, so there shouldn't be any trouble, right?"
Yu Rui said.
"But……"
Lu Cheng was speechless and looked very worried.
Luo Qiu glanced at Yu Rui and said, "I just calculated that according to the direction of the ocean current, we should be able to reach Chitose Island one and a half hours before sunset."
"so……"
Lu Cheng's eyes flashed brightly.
"I'll turn the ship around right now!'
