Chapter 688: Isle of the Dead

"No, there really isn't a ......" On the boat, the private tour guide Han Dewang said to Zhao Yu, "I have checked, and I have asked friends, there is no martial arts hall on the island!"

"No? hmm......" Zhao Yu was suddenly disappointed, according to his understanding of Miao Ying, the local martial arts hall, especially the distinctive martial arts hall, must be attractive to Miao Ying. But alas, there is no one on the island.

"Hmm...... I don't know, did Mr. Zhao check the information before he came?" Han Dewang was really a competent tour guide, and his mouth turned to his profession, "Do you know what Landing Island used to do?"

"I know, I know...... Su Jinmei raised her hand and said, "I have checked the information, Landing Island used to be an indigenous gathering place, and there was a war in the 19th century! Later, because the island is rich in a kind of propolis, so a breeding garden was established, and there are many bee farms on the island, well, that kind of bee is called...... Hmmm......"

"Manuka," Han Dewang smiled slightly, and said, "As I expected, in fact, the information you found on the Internet was added by the local government later!

"Since the 90s, the local government has been actively working to develop the island and transform it into a tourist destination.

"So, they made some changes and adjustments to the history of the island, and renovated it, and later arranged recommendations in various tourism commodities in Auckland, and through years of hard work, this is what it is today!" Speaking of this, Han Dewang suddenly changed the conversation and said mysteriously, "However, you don't know that in fact, Landing Island is not an indigenous gathering place at all, nor is it a propolis homeland, its origin is full of darkness!"

"The Maori performances on the island are all troupes from all over the world. Apiaries are also gimmicks, mainly to sell honey and propolis......!

"Hehe, let me tell you, more than 100 years ago, Landing was the largest prison in all of New Zealand! At least half of the convicts in the North Island will be sent here, and most of them will be felons!

"The island's unique location makes it an ideal place to hold prisoners, and it is said that there has not been a single escape under the conditions of detention in those days!"

"Wow!" Su Jinmei couldn't help but be speechless, "It's actually for prisoners! It sounds so good! Director Han, I don't quite understand, if the government is under the banner of Prisoner Island, like "Brave Death Island", wouldn't it be more gimmicky? More attractive?"

"That's true, but ......," Han Dewang smiled and said, "Landing Island is not only a prison, but also a famous execution ground! Death row prisoners were killed here! In the past 100 years, the locals have called this place the Island of the Dead! Think about it, such an unfortunate gimmick, the government would not dare to gamble on it!"

"In contrast, it will be more sunny and more secure to engage in cultural performances and sell local specialties according to our Chinese tourism model!"

"Dead Man's Island, my God!" Su Jinmei frowned, "This name is really unlucky! I don't even want to go!"

Zhao Yu also felt the same way, thinking of the purpose of going to Landing Island, he always felt a little unlucky.

"Hehe, rest assured, rest assured!" Han Dewang hurriedly said, "It's not the same now! The former prison, the execution ground and so on have long been gone! There is no problem with the security on the island, there are more than 3,000 locals living on the island, and every year in this season, there will be more than 20,000 tourists on the island to travel, in addition to watching performances and shopping things, there are also scuba diving, speedboats and other amusement methods, no one goes back to recall that dark and terrifying history!

"Oh, by the way......" Speaking of his business, Han Dewang's eyebrows fluttered, "The latest shooting range on the island has been built, and New Zealand does not ban guns, so you can live a gun addiction ......"

Later, Zhao Yu and Su Jinmei didn't listen carefully, they came here to find someone, where are they in the mood to have fun and play?

By the time the boat arrived at the Landing Island Pier, it was already past 9 p.m. The Grand Hotel in Poland, which Zhao Yu booked, is the largest and most luxurious hotel on the island, and they even sent a special bus to greet tourists staying at the hotel.

Since this is the last boat, there are not many tourists on board, and most of them are locals. On the bus, there are also people Zhuo Zhuo, except for Zhao Yu and the others, the others are basically hotel staff.

The water quality, when they arrived at the hotel and was ready to check in, there was a slight accident.

Before that, Zhao Yu didn't know that Su Jinmei would come, so he only booked a room in this hotel. Later, when they had just arrived in Auckland, Zhao Yu asked Han Dewang to contact the hotel to book another room for Su Jinmei.

However, at that time, the hotel obviously agreed, but now after arriving at the hotel, they suddenly told them that there was no extra room!

It turned out that there was a stranded incident for a European tour group, so the room could not be arranged.

Alas!

Hearing the news, Zhao Yu couldn't help but sigh.

Providence makes people, and things are impermanent! Zhao Yu knew in his heart that this might be today's "Kan" hexagram exerting its power!

Once upon a time, how much did he wish to meet this kind of beautiful thing of traveling with a beautiful woman and then only having one room left in the hotel? However, now looking at the big-eyed and cute Su Jinmei, he didn't have any meaning of rejoicing in the stinky beauty.

"End...... Su Jinmei said nervously to Zhao Yu, "Master, have you said that as long as I am obedient, you will take care of me! It's so late, can't you let me sleep on the streets?"

"Hmm......" Zhao Yu glanced at Han Dewang as if asking for help, and asked, "Tour guide, where are you staying tonight?"

"Oh...... Of course, I can't afford to live in such a luxurious hotel! I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning, and if you have breakfast, you can just go straight to the restaurant......" Han Dewang said.

"I'm asking where you live?" Zhao Yu asked again.

"Oh...... That's right, the guide fee you gave includes my accommodation, but the standard is naturally different from you!" Han Dewang said sincerely, "Originally, I could have booked a room in a small hotel nearby, but I happen to have a friend here, and I will stay at their house today." This money will naturally be left by me!"

"That ......"

Seeing Zhao Yu's hesitation, Su Jinmei hurriedly said, "Master, you don't want me to go with him, do you? I'm a girl! You can't be so ruthless!"

"Hmm...... Ahem......" Han Dewang coughed awkwardly and said, "Don't worry, New Zealand's policy is very relaxed, men and women stay in hotels, and don't look at marriage certificates!"

"I'll you, um......" Zhao Yu wanted to scold the street, but felt that it was out of place, so he complained angrily, "I don't need it in China!"

"Yes, yes," Han Dewang immediately nodded and said, "That's ...... If the language barrier is not clear, their hotel has a dedicated Chinese manager. It's getting late, you two should rest early! Rest early!"

After saying that, he smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away......

"Oh......" Su Jinmei said to Zhao Yu with a sigh of relief, "Master, don't worry, I won't trouble you, you sleep on the bed, I'll just sleep on the ground......!
