Chapter 132: The Strange Chest [Part II]
Barbossa was apparently more knowledgeable than Jack, and the Dragon, under his direction, headed for Death Island, where he had hidden his gold and silver treasures.
During the journey, no matter what the considerations, Barbossa also reached a clear cooperation agreement with Tang Bai. And in order to be able to get the black pearl back from Tang Bai earlier, Jack was also very interested in not adding any more trouble, and did something small on the navigation chart.
In the darkness of the night, the Dragon burst out of the water. After the high curtain of water splashed down, a faintly invisible island in the distance, like a hideous beast hidden in the night, came into view in the night.
"That's the Dead Island where you're hiding your treasures?" Tang Bai stood on the side of the ship, looking at the swarthy one in the distance, and only a vague outline of the island could be seen faintly in the night.
"Yes." Barbossa, who was beside Tang Bai, nodded.
"Nice place!" Tang Bai's words were not simply compliments to Barbossa, but a sincere admiration for the treasure place chosen by Barbossa.
But every famous pirate, its pirate base, or treasure land, has something to be admired in terms of using the environment of the sea. Either it is in a remote and uninhabited sea area that is almost impossible to find, or it is an island surrounded by reefs or reefs, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is extremely dangerous.
Captain Barbossa's treasure trove is an island that has gone off course and looks extremely inconspicuous.
"Thank you for the compliment." Barbossa smiled ugly. Seeing that the treasure he had accumulated over the years was now in the hands of others, Barbossa really didn't have the heart to be relieved or happy for Tang Bai's sincere praise.
As he spoke, the Dragon slowly approached the island. Looking at the island that gradually became clear in his vision, Tang Bai didn't care about the regret and depression in Barbossa's tone, waved his hand and ordered, "Come and get some people, come in with me." ”
As he spoke, Tang Bai turned around and pointed at Will and said, "Of course, Mr. Will and Captain Barbossa, you'd better both come along." ”
"What about me? Tang Dynasty? Jack flashed in front of Tang Bai's eyes and showed a big smile at him.
"No one has restrained your freedom, Jack. If you want, you can follow. Tang Bai looked at the smiling face close at hand, blinked and said helplessly.
"I'm going to follow Will!" Elizabeth's voice rang behind Jack.
Tang Bai stretched out his hand and brushed Jack's face aside, and looked at Elizabeth, who had a somewhat haggard face. Sailing at sea is boring and unbearable, especially for people like them, who have to be frightened at all times, and who are half prisoners.
Looking at that haggard and stubborn face, Tang Bai shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
After leaving the necessary manpower on the ship, Tang Bai and his party drove the boat, followed Captain Barbossa, and set foot on Death Island under his leadership.
Death Island has a naturally empty cavern with a narrow, low entrance. Only one or two small boats can be supplied at a time. Caves can not only be used to hide their own treasures, but with this natural environment, they can easily resist enemies who are many times more than themselves in a precautionary situation.
The water inside the cave is shallow and clear, so clear that one can easily see everything underneath. The torches illuminated the dark surroundings and reflected the surroundings and the water.
"Gold!"
"There's gold in the water!"
"Hahaha, we're really going to get rich this time!"
……
The excited voices of Tang Bai's pirates continued to sound, vibrate, and reverberate in this small space. Every sound made Captain Barbossa's face look ugly. This excited tone, falling in his ears, was more like an undisguised ridicule and ridicule.
After actually stepping into the hinterland of the cave and lighting the torches used for lighting in the cave, the golden light that flickered under the firelight instantly dazzled everyone's eyes with a look of intoxication.
Mountains of gold coins, gold and silver items, and gemstones of all colors are piled up in every corner. Under the reflection of the firelight, a dazzling light is reflected, firmly attracting those who step into this cave.
After tying up the boat, many pirates couldn't wait to step on the water, and rushed towards the piles of gold and silver. All the pirates had a look on their faces that was a mixture of fanaticism and intoxication. It was Angelica, the former nun beside Tang Bai, and Elizabeth, who was born wealthy, and the two daughters couldn't help but have a touch of surprise and shock in their eyes.
Unlike the pirates who were clearly in a state of frenzy, the two women still had their own sanity and self-control.
Tang Bai's eyes didn't pay attention to the piles of gold and silver, but locked his gaze tightly on a large delicate and heavy golden box placed in a high place.
"Aang!"
A loud dragon roar that sounded a little immature, but had begun to take shape, suddenly sounded in this not too big cave.
Retracting his gaze from the coffin-shaped box in front of him, Tang Bai, who came back to his senses, immediately felt the restlessness and excitement of the little dragon Norway above his head. The two cold and fleshy little hooves, as well as the round belly, kept changing directions on Tang Bai's head as its small body continued to move.
Tang Bai chuckled.
As if commanded by something, the little dragon swooped down towards the pile of gold like a tiger and leopard hunting for food. Before the many pirates could rush to the gold pile, the dragon Norway had already rushed up and captured one.
Looking at Norway happily playing happily on the pile of gold, the corners of Barbossa's and Jack's lips twitched.
"Huh?"
Tang Bai suddenly let out a startled sigh, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Ignoring the chest containing the gold Aztec coins on the platform, he turned and walked toward a corner. Angelik, Jack and the others who were following him didn't know what was going on, and they followed Tang Bai for some unknown reasons, and walked towards the corner with him.
In the corner, a wooden crate was discarded so broken that it looked like it might fall apart at any moment. Inside the wooden box, there are a few swarthy wooden round coins scattered with no original color. Tang Bai stepped forward and took a few wooden round coins in the wooden box in his hand.
It does not have the characteristic fluffy and swollen feeling of being soaked in wood water for too long, but has a metallic coldness and toughness.
