The atmosphere on the high stage looked awkward.

Little Brother Li stammered and asked, "You, how did you get up here?"

"My mother sent me up here, Woody, why are you so sad, can you tell me why?"

Li Mu was embarrassed, "Take, later, let's get out of here first."

With one last look at Hope, he hugged Shen Xingyue with both hands and jumped off the high platform.

Third Auntie looked at him with a smirk, looking at Little Brother Li with no place to go.

This is finished, kissing someone else's girl in front of their old lady, this is good, jumping into the Yellow River can't be washed away.

Shen Xingyue hurriedly relieved him, taking the third aunt's arm and dragging her towards the shore.

Li Mu pulled out that bone knife, and with a roar, the treasure cave was closed once again.

He looked up at the stone statue for a long time before he let out a long sigh and left the cave with heavy steps.

The removal of the treasure needs no further description; two hundred and forty chests were piled up on the Fontainebleau, and a seal was put on each one.

The ten family heads agreed that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and that they would discuss how to distribute the wealth when they returned to the South Seas.

With little time left before the island sank, the four ships turned around and sailed at full speed to get out of harm's way.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Li Mu stood on the deck and looked at the mysterious island for a long time.

Someone shouted, "The magnetic field is back to normal."

Many raised their binoculars, and as the crowd watched, Mystery Island disappeared into the sea level with the last locks of daylight.

Li Mu mumbled in his mind, "Farewell, Hope, farewell, Fantine!"

Lin Wan held her husband's hand and comforted him, "I'm not sure what happened, but I can feel your pain, and so can Hope, it should have already forgiven you, you don't have to keep feeling guilty about it!"

Reimu patted her hand and forced a smile, "I'm fine, I just think that I could have done better, if I had been braver, she wouldn't have died!"

"Can you tell me about it?"

"I'm sorry, I'm not going to recall that memory for a while, I want to forget her!"

Lin Wan hugged him and said softly, "Since memories are painful, forget it, I won't ask again."

At this moment, on the next deck, several martial artists were discussing, their voices getting louder and louder, and in the end, it even developed into an argument.

Lin Wan frowned and looked down, asking, "What are you guys arguing about?"

A martial artist replied, "Missy, I saw a sailboat, they all didn't believe me and said I was cheating, I wasn't convinced so I argued."

"A sailboat?" Lin Wan was surprised, "Where did you see it?"

"Just over by the Mysterious Island, the sailboat appeared the moment the island sank, and then disappeared."

Lin Wan asked in a small voice, "Hubby, did you see that?"

"No, but I believe he's telling the truth!"

Lin Wan froze for a moment and instructed those martial artists, "All of you disperse, no more arguing over this matter, everyone raise your guard, the more this moment comes, the more we can't relax!"

"Yes, Missy!"

After the martial artists had all dispersed, Lin Wan pulled her husband back to the cabin and closed the door before she asked him, "Husband, why did you say that kind of thing just now."

"Because there are burglars!"

Lin Wan was shocked, her eyes instantly rounded.

"A burglar?"

"Yes, someone went there first and stole a lot of wealth, and the treasure we see is actually what people have left."

"Oh my God, who would have that kind of skill, and how did they get in?"

"There was a secret passage, a hidden passage that no one knew about, and from there they entered the cache and stole part of the treasure."

Li Mu's words surprised Lin Wan.

Such a secretive place, such a trap-heavy treasure cache, that thieves had appeared, that someone had entered the treasure trove before them.

"Honey, how did you know about this?"

Li Mu paled and whispered, "Did Hope tell me?"

"Is that the guardian beast?"

Liamu nodded.

"Did it leave because of this?"

Reimu shook his head and his eyes drifted to the window.

"No, she was killed by me!"

Lin Wan hurriedly hugged him, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked this question, don't worry, I'll never ask again."

"It's okay, we're a couple, I'm willing to share all my secrets with you, Hope is a woman!"

Lin Wan froze and looked at him, her expression starting to become complicated.

"You... You cried so much because of a woman... I... I..."

"I can tell you the full story of that experience!"

Lin Niangniang took a deep breath and said in a calm tone, "Okay, go ahead and say it, I'll listen carefully."

......

Lin Wan leaned into her husband's arms, her eyes red, not knowing how to comfort him.

The couple sat in silence for a long time before Lin Wan opened her mouth and asked, "Do you like her?"

"Love it!"

"And do you love her?"

"I don't know!"

"If one day I die in your arms, will you cry for me?"

"No, I will always die before you."

Lin Wan raised her head and lightly tapped her husband on the lips.

"Crow's mouth, don't you dare say such nonsense again."

Li Mu hesitated for a moment and decided that it would be better to tell the truth so that his wife could be mentally prepared in advance.

"Xiaowan, I'm afraid I can't accompany you for the rest of your life."

Lin Wan's heart thumped, she knew that her husband wasn't joking, if he could say such things, he must have his reasons.

"You, what are you babbling about?"

"It was Hope who told me that after the bone replacement, my body was tainted with death, and I wouldn't live past 40."

Lin Wan looked at him in horror, already too surprised to speak.

Li Mu hugged her and whispered in her ear, "She can save me, the precondition is to take her as my wife, I don't want to be sorry for you, so, I didn't promise her."

Lin Wan cried out and tugged him outside.

"We'll go back to her, and I'll quit and let her have you if it'll save you!"

Reimu pulled her back and embraced her in his arms once more.

"Don't be ridiculous, if that happens I'd rather die right now, there's no way I'll ever leave you again for any reason, even if I die, I'll die by your side."

Lin Wan cried bitterly, Li Mu stroked her long hair and softly comforted her, "Don't cry, there's still some time before we turn 40, we can slowly think of a solution."

"We'll go to her, I'll kowtow to her, I'll beg her to save you!"

"It's no use, the Mysterious Island has sunk and Hope is dead, she couldn't save me, we'll just have to think of another way."

"Honey, it's my fault, I shouldn't have pissed you off!"

Lin Wan was remorseful, if it was not for her capriciousness, her husband would not have left home, and would not have suffered the experience of changing his bones; in the end, it was she who had harmed him.

Li Mu helped her to sit on the sofa and said to her, "I can only listen to this kind of words once, if you dare to think like this in the future, I will spank you. Wife, God's will is like this, it's not man's fault, God is the fairest of them all, there are gains and losses to show the balance of heaven."

"Honey, we don't want the frakking bones, I'll beg my godmother to help you get back to normal bones."

Li Mu shook his head and laughed bitterly, "It's too late!"

Lin Wan was at a loss for words and didn't know what to do.

Li Mu patted her shoulder and said to her, "Call both Godmother and Xingyue over, this matter is also related to Xingyue, they should be mentally prepared."

"Yes, I'll call them all over, we'll discuss the countermeasures together, husband, don't worry, I'm sure I can find a way, if I can't save you, I'll accompany you."

Without saying anything else, Liamu smiled and nodded.

After all, it is more than ten years later, now there is no need to be too serious, wait until they have a child, Li Mu believes that his wife will naturally make a sensible choice.

"This matter should not be told to the Cheng family, much less let other families be informed, remember!"

Lin Wan nodded and got up to leave.

......

Third Auntie's eyes were red and swollen as she sat on the chair, and the Slabbed Taoist held her hand tightly, his face grave and pensive.

Shen Xingyue's expression was normal, sitting by her mother's side and comforting her from time to time.

Second Grandpa smoked another dry cigarette, the flavor was choking and spicy enough to keep your eyes open.

Li Mu pushed open the porthole and said to the crowd, "You guys shouldn't be too upset, Star Moon and I may not not live past 40, there's still plenty of time, we can take our time and figure it out."

"Brother Mu is right!" Second Grandpa agreed, "We'll take our time to figure it out, and..."

Fourth Grandpa heard something in his second brother's words and hurriedly asked, "Second brother, don't swallow your words, just say what you have to say."

Third Auntie also urged, "Second Brother, why don't you stop talking halfway through the sentence, do you have a way to break this calamity?"

Second Grandpa put the tobacco pot by his side and said to Li Mu, "Come here, Brother Mu, Second Uncle will feel your bones again!"

Li Mu obediently walked over to the second grandfather with a pair of old hands, touched him from head to tail a few times, and at the end, froze without making a sound.

"Second brother, how's it going?" Third Auntie asked anxiously.

"Strange, the result of my bone touching, how come it's different from what my ancestor said, third sister, why don't you touch it too!"

"Okay, son come here, Mother will touch your bones!"

The same technique, the third aunt also touched one place without pulling over and over again, touching the little brother Li strange embarrassed.

Then, Grandpa Four moved his hand once, touching little Li from head to toe a few times, and showing the same expression as his brother and sister.

"What is your conclusion, Fourth Brother?" The third aunt asked.

Fourth Grandfather pondered for half a day before he hesitantly said, "Ancestor, is Ancestor lying to Brother Mu?"

Third Auntie immediately nodded her head, she also had the same idea, thinking that Shen Fangting was lying, what life expectancy was not more than 40 years old, it was just nonsense.

In her eyes, her son's life expectancy is long, it is a good life with many blessings and many grandchildren, how can he die at the age of 40.

"The ancestors didn't lie!" Second Grandfather said suddenly.

"Second brother, what are you talking about?" Third Auntie immediately asked.

"I mean, ancestors don't lie, her old man had no reason to lie."

"Could it be that in order to keep Moo behind, so, she told a lie?"
