Obviously, Captain Tie Qing's face showed that Yuan Ye's words were just a mockery in his ears, so the captain didn't pay attention to her at all.

The successive setbacks cooled the passion for a windfall, and five tired men lay on the beach and meditated, but couldn't think of why. From the boat to the piloting skills, it is clear that everything is normal, but it will always return to this small island.

Chu Nanzhu came over, sat on the sand pile next to him, and slowly ate the wild fruits on the island and said, "If you grew up in the Emerald Islands when you were a child, you should have heard of the fairy tale of "Gem Island", right?" ”

Her voice was soft, but it had a thunderous effect in the hearts of the five men.

Gem Island is full of gems, but you can't take any of them with you, and you can't get back in if you leave.

The obese cook sat next to Chu Nanzhu with chicken legs and said: "You bring so many stones, if you encounter a big storm, you will definitely die, a lifetime is only a hundred years, just have meat to eat, what's the use of getting more money, don't you all have to die?" ”

She said twice in a sentence that she would die, and the five men who were holding their breath rolled their eyes at the same time, forgetting that when she was helping the cook on her boat, she was actually a dumb person.

In the face of great wealth, no one was willing to give in, and of course the five men would not give up because of their few words, and after resting on the island for one night, the five continued to sail and left with a boatload of gems.

Yuan Ye and Chu Nanzhu, together with the chef, continued to stay on the island to explore, and they found jade mines as red as blood on the sunny side of the island's highest peak, and beautiful jade as black as night in the darkest valley on the back. The quality of jade ore is uneven, and the best is comparable to mutton fat white jade.

Chu Nanzhu kept sighing that there is such a wonderful treasure mountain in the world; The cook has no interest in these beautiful jades, and spends all day trying to catch all kinds of birds, beasts, fish and insects on the island and roast them; While exploring the topographical jade mines on the island, Yuan Ye used his spiritual eye to analyze the ubiquitous psionic magnetic field, while paying attention to the captain and the others who had to turn back two or three times a day.

At sunset on the tenth day of their stay on the island, the cook was grilling fish on the beach, Chu Nanzhu was keeping accounts with a small notebook, and Yuan Ye was drawing the topography of the island with a pencil.

In ten days, they explored about one-sixth of the island, which is small compared to the Emerald Islands, but not small for human legs, and the dense vegetation and vines on the island make it time-consuming to explore. In the past ten days, the places they have gone to are also relatively safe places with simple terrain, and they have not gone to places with more complicated terrain.

The air was filled with the aroma of barbecued meat, and the cook chewed the fish steak with a mouthful of oil: "I found that the meat of birds, beasts, fish and insects here is better than the meat of other places." ”

Chu Nanzhu said: "That's because there is no food here, on the way to the Empress Dowager Cixi, she thinks that the nest is delicious, not to mention that you can still eat meat on this desert island!" ”

"No—" The cook immediately retorted, "girl, you don't understand, with my more than forty years of experience as a foodie, I can tell you with certainty that the meat here is definitely more delicious than the meat of any place, hurry up and enjoy the delicious food with my sister, don't always think about those stones, what's the use of those stones?" I can't eat, I can't get along, I crawl and sleep in a panic. Once we leave here, we will never come back, and we will never be able to eat such delicious meat again! Then the air rang out with the sound of the cook munching. (To be continued.) )
