Mason Lilliput and Theodore Lilliput hurriedly got on the boat after packing their belongings. The boatman steered from the outside, while the two of them quietly discussed their route and plans for entering the mountains in the cabin.
However, after half an hour of difficult navigation in the rough waves, hurried footsteps approached followed by several heavy knocks on the cabin door.
"Master, I'm sorry, but we have to turn back."
They had finally found a boatman willing to carry them, was their journey going to end before it began?
Mason lowered his voice and spoke to his nephew.
"These people probably think that now we're on board, it would be easier for them to raise the price."
Theodore was also a bit upset, "What should we do then? Maybe, we should take drastic measures…"
Theodore made a slashing motion across his neck.
Mason glared at him, "Don't be impulsive. We wouldn't be relying on them if we knew how to steer a boat."
