Chapter 45: The Black Lighthouse and the Old Man
The Cayman Islands are hidden in fog all day long, and the lighthouses on the south coast are a reassuring medicine for those who visit.
Legend has it that this black lighthouse has existed for two centuries, and out of reverence for the sea, everyone subconsciously stayed away from the lighthouse despite the constant wars in the area.
The reason is simple, the black lighthouse is a lifesaver for everyone, and if you destroy the straw, it is equivalent to declaring war with the entire Cayman Islands. No one can afford such a price.
The land around the Black Lighthouse is lush and green, and although it stands in the center of the city, there are no buildings in a radius of several hundred meters. When Chen Yan walked there, there were a few people chatting in front of the lighthouse.
"The lighthouse is the way to the road, but how do we go back?"
"Fool, we have committed such a big sin in France, what are we going to do when we go back"
"But...... My wife and children are still in my hometown, and I want to go back and see them. ”
"Haha, old Mofa, you have been in the Cayman Islands for a few years, five years or ten years, my wife and children are afraid that they have already run away with others"
"You bastard"
"Wait" the voice of the third person came: "Who's that?"
Chen Yan's figure swept past the sight of the three of them, and he held his hands behind his shoulders and looked up at the top of the black lighthouse, his gaze calm.
Chen Yan didn't seem to notice them, and walked straight into the lighthouse.
"Oh my God, who is he, he dares to enter the black lighthouse"
"Look at his dress, he shouldn't be crazy, no, I need to inform Mr. Chris quickly"
"yes, Mr. Chris, maybe there's something to be done......"
The three of them muttered for a while and walked away quickly.
Chen Yan watched the three of them leave in the shadows, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't chase them out. Whether it was deliberately provoking the meteorite at the roadside stall or being exposed to the vision of the three of them, it was actually within Chen Yan's plan.
Come on, if it's you, you should be able to receive the message from me
Chen Yan's face completely disappeared into the darkness, and his feet stepped on the spiral staircase of the lighthouse and began to climb step by step.
The lighthouse is not very high, a total of only a dozen meters, the spiral staircase is covered with moss and rodent droppings, and there is a pile of snow-white bones in the corner, I don't know if this is an animal or a human.
Chen Yan climbed the stairs and walked to the top floor in a short time.
After entering the stone gate, he was greeted by a huge semi-arc bronze mirror, Chen Yan walked closer, saw his distorted shadow reflected on it, and frowned.
Although he found this place by himself according to many clues, the ear chamber of the lighthouse is not a place to store treasures. Looks like something must have been overlooked.
If you think about it, there will inevitably be a hint when you open the treasure.
Chen Yan took a deep breath and leaned down to carefully search for clues here. But after looking for a long time, there are no too suitable clues.
He frowned, and when he stood up, he saw that something was not quite right with himself in front of the bronze mirror.
Chen Yan's heart moved, he leaned over and carefully wiped the oil stain on it. After wiping it a few times, a circular groove appeared in front of him.
Chen Yan put the two-in-one jade pendant in his hand and looked at it for a while, he tried to press the jade pendant into the groove, but he didn't expect that the two would fit together perfectly.
Click.
The jade pendant was embedded in the groove, and then a ray of light separated from the bronze mirror, passed straight through Chen Yan, and shot into the distance.
The latter turned around and saw the light of the lighthouse fall on a hill not far away, and he was stunned, and then showed a look of ecstasy.
I didn't expect to come to the lighthouse just to confirm the location, and sure enough, there was a royal treasure
Chen Yan buckled the jade pendant down, and immediately rushed down the spiral staircase. After he walked out of the door, he suddenly saw a large group of people outside the door, and the person at the head turned out to be Chen Yan's old acquaintance.
"Chris" was puzzled: "Why are you here?"
"It's you, Chen. We meet again. After Chris saw Chen Yan, he showed a luster that was incomprehensible, and he said: "I didn't expect the East Coast to say goodbye, and we met here." It looks like your life is big. ”
Chen Yan felt that Chris was talking strangely, he took a step back and frowned: "What do you mean by that." ”
"Let me ask you, did you cause that light earlier," Chris walked towards Chen Yan.
Chen Yan said: "I don't understand what you're saying. ”
"Do you really not understand" Chris smiled slightly, and he said, "You know exactly what I'm talking about." ”
This time, Chen Yan confirmed that Chris was really wrong. He put the jade pendant back in his clothes, pulled out the Inviting Moon Sword from his waist, and said coldly: "Get out of the way, don't get in the way." ”
"Don't do it. Chris raised his hands in surrender, and he smiled: "We are friends, how can friends swing knives against each other?"
"Friend, I can't see it," Chen Yan said coldly: "What flashed in your eyes just now was not a friendly gaze. ”
Chris waved his hand: "Chen, you misunderstood me. The Cayman Islands are very chaotic, I was afraid that you would have something to do to approach you like this, you tell me what the light is, I will take you home safely, how"
Chen Yan shook his head, rejected his kindness, and asked, "Who are you?"
"Who else could it be, of course I'm Chris. Chris laughs.
Chen Yan's voice cooled down: "I don't have time to chat with you, get out of the way, don't force me to make a move"
With that, he leaned over and rushed towards Chris.
The latter folded his hands, still smiling.
Chen Yan was about to make a move, but hesitated. He took back the Inviting Moon Sword and used the back of his hand to slash instead. Unexpectedly, a cold light flashed in Chris's eyes, and he immediately stretched out his left hand, grabbed Chen Yan's cheek with a slap, and immediately pressed him to the ground.
rumble
Chen Yan was smashed into a big hole on the ground, his whole body was extremely sore, and his mind was in deep shock.
I didn't even see how fast he was shooting
Chen Yan swung his sword and swept away, but Chris lightly caught it with two fingers, and in the latter's incredulous gaze, a punch slammed into his lower abdomen.
"Wow" Chen Yan's pupils were dilated by this punch, and he spat blood and fell to the ground.
Click, click.
Footsteps rang in his ears, and Chris crouched down and said word by word.
"Seven Star Heavenly Power, tell me the location of the royal treasure, my time is precious, don't force me. ”
