Chapter 326 [Vanishing Pirate Capital]

(Ask for a commuter pass!)

"Maybe there's something big going on here......"

After crossing the path, they entered a stone chamber of considerable size, which also collapsed in half. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but a stone slab is carved with a concept drawing of the building, and there is a part of the architectural model on the stone table next to it, which is silent in the dust.

It looks like a European town, or some pirate theme park. The design is based on the island environment hundreds of years ago, and both the watchtower and the attic are remarkable.

"Wow...... It's beautiful. Xia Meng blew lightly, and the dust spread out with teeth and claws.

"Ahem~"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Xia Meng was also covered by dust, "Okay, my fault." You say, if Barbossa hadn't been seriously ill, would they have been able to build a pirate park?"

"Who knows? These people, I can't say for sure. ”

Zhang Zhengyang suddenly picked up a statue, wiped the dust, and showed gold, "Is this gold, the workmanship is quite good." The statue depicts Barbossa, dressed in the gown of a European nobleman, but with a pirate tricorn hat on his head and a pirate scimitar at his waist. …… It seems to be a miniature of a collapsed statue outside.

Chen Ergou took it and looked at it, and said with certainty: "That's right, it's gold." ”

Both of them had happy faces on their faces, and they looked around even harder.

There is a drone floating overhead, and the red light is flashing, indicating that it has been recording everything here. Chen Ergou took control of the camera, controlled the camera, and made a comprehensive detailed shot of the model of this utopian pirate park.

Zhang Zhengyang was curious, "There is no live broadcast, why are you filming this? and the content of the last treasure hunt in Congo was not broadcast on TV." ”

Chen Ergou nodded, "The materials are not wasted, but there are still some missing." ”

Xia Meng explained to him and said, "It's a documentary project, if the final result is perfect and the material is sufficient." It is not impossible to make a documentary, and the studio's plan is to try to make it on the big screen as much as possible. It can also be regarded as a summary of this season's "Wilderness Food". ”

Zhang Zhengyang suddenly realized, "So, we are all likely to appear on the camera?"

Xia Meng nodded, "The boss only told me about the plan." Because the treasure hunt is not over and there is no follow-up content, it has not been made public. Now I want to tell you that I want you to cooperate. If the plan goes well, we'll all be on camera. ”

In the headphones, Su Qiqi couldn't hold back her excitement, "yes, I'm going to be on the big screen too." Sister Mengmeng, how should we cooperate. Oops, didn't the shot of my failed dive just now also be filmed. ”

Chen Ergou smiled and said while continuing to shoot: "Aren't you already doing it." Don't behave deliberately, just do what you have to do, that's just a plan after all. ”

"The third uncle continues to monitor, and tell me if there is a situation. ”

"Here, everybody, help me wipe this wall clean. ”

The walls were covered with mud washed down by the rain from the roof of the cave, and now covered with moss, which was no small project. Fortunately, there are many people and great strength, and everyone works together to finally reveal their true faces.

These are all pirate carved stone tablets, which have been hidden for many years, and have finally been unearthed from the earth again today.

Some of them depict the pirates' usual behavior, some of them are images of the pirates going on their expeditions, and some of them are depicting the pirates having fun and laughing on the island.

Xia Meng's eyes widened and said, "Boss, these wall carvings seem to be of the same type as Barbossa's Greek psalm carvings, could it be that they were made by the same person." ”

"yes. ”

"It looks like it's emulating the famous 'pirate capital' of the 17th century, Port Royal. ”

Xia Meng was puzzled: "Port Royal, why do you say that Pirate Paradise is emulating the pirate capital?"

Chen Ergou explained: "Port Royal is also located on the island of Jamaica. ”

In 1655, the English occupied Jamaica and set aside Harbour Royal, on the southeast coast of Jamaica Island, as a base for pirates, and the Port of Royal became the largest concentration of pirate fleets in history. The pirates sold the spoils of war looted from the Spaniards in broad daylight, and the locals and merchants were happy to come here to buy pirate goods because of the low prices. At the same time, Jamaica also became one of the markets for the black slave trade in Britain. While the pirates were frantically looting for wealth, they were also frantically capturing captives and selling them in the slave markets here. ”

"What's even more terrifying is that Port Royal is openly the capital of Jamaica, but unofficially the capital of pirates, where the gold, silver and jewels looted by the pirates are piled up, and sometimes the boatloads of gold are not unloaded, but only parked in the harbor and waiting. ”

"There is no doubt that in the 17th century it was the most evil city in the history of mankind, and the most depraved city. Although only a few tens of thousands of people lived there and a third were pirates, the city's extravagance far surpassed that of London and Paris at the time. ”

"The whole city does not have any industry, but can enjoy the most luxurious material life. Chinese silk, Indonesian spices, and British industrial products are all available. Of course, the most abundant are gold bars, silver bars and jewelry. ”

Driven by wealth, all kinds of people came there with the intention of making a fortune.

Dutch, British, French, German, Nordic, Spanish, Portuguese, Irish, African, mulatto, all sorted. They opened hotels, inns, restaurants, inns, and brothels to satisfy the pirates' lavish fortunes.

He's introducing, and he's recording a video.

After hearing this, Xia Meng became even more curious and asked, "Then why haven't we heard of this place in Jamaica?"

Chen Ergou said: "It's gone......"

"Gone?!" everyone in the team channel also exclaimed.

"Yes, gone. Maybe there is really such a thing as retribution, and even God can't see it. The capital of the criminal pirates, disappeared into history in a short period of time. Chen Ergou's fingers stroked these reliefs, as if he was reminiscing about the era when he was in the heyday of piracy, and slowly opened his mouth to uncover a little-known story.

On June 7, 1692, the port of Royale was still bustling as usual, with a noisy tavern, a crowded market full of customers, ships of all kinds coming in and out of the port, English ships laden with industrial goods unloading their goods at the docks, and transit ships from the American continent repairing sails and adding water. The pirate ship is in the middle of it, and it is difficult for the average person to distinguish it. But this sin city is destined for God's punishment.

At noon, the earth shook suddenly, followed by a violent shaking.

Huge cracks appeared in the ground and buildings collapsed. The earth was undulating like a wave, and hundreds of cracks appeared in the ground at the same time, opening and closing. The sea was like a boiling pot, and the raging waves shattered all the ships in the harbor.

People dressed in gold and silver ran frantically under the pressure of collapsed houses, cracked ground, and tsunamis, trying to find a place to take refuge. At about 11:47 p.m., after the most violent shaking of the island, two-thirds of the city was submerged under the sea, and the remaining buildings on land were washed away by the waves.

The port of Royal disappeared into the sea, and it was not until 1835 that the traces of the city under the sea could be faintly seen on a calm day - some shipwrecks and houses were faintly recognizable. Later, the sediment and garbage were covered in layers, and the port of Royal was annihilated in people's memory.
