Chapter 598: The Red Planet
On the six sides of the bronze box, there is a relief of the Buddha in each, although Li Mu does not know much about Buddhism, but he can also see that this is indeed a Buddhist statue is not wrong.
The Buddha above, Li Mu doesn't know what Buddha it is, but it is often seen on TV, there are standing, lying, and sitting cross-legged, and the Buddha patterns on the six faces are different.
But Li Mu knows very well that there are no Buddhism and Taoism in the universe, how can there be a statue of the Buddha without Buddhism, could this thing come from the earth, Li Mu had all kinds of doubts in his heart, but he got any answer.
There is no text on the bronze box, just six Buddha statues, and there are no other clues other than that, Li Mu looked at it for a while, because he really didn't know much about Buddhism, only knew that the sitting Buddha among them should be the most common Buddha statue.
Of course, it is only Li Mu's own speculation, just because it is the same as on TV, whether it is really like this, Li Mu is not sure, as for the other five Buddha statues with different postures, Li Mu is even more unrecognizable.
"What's in it? If you know what's inside, you might be able to know if the box has anything to do with the earth. Li Mu was so curious that he couldn't open the bronze box immediately to see what was inside.
But this is only a virtual image, not a real thing, and it is impossible to open it, and this thing is still in the hands of the pirates.
"It's really the right time to go this time, maybe I have a chance to see what's inside." Li Mu was secretly glad that he had promised Calos, otherwise he would never have known the origin of this box.
It's just that the Kaluojia values the contents of the bronze box so much. Even if he took it back, Kalos might not tell him what was in the box.
"It's a bit of a problem." Li Mu frowned slightly. We can only take one step at a time, and it is still unknown whether we can get the bronze box back from the pirates. It's useless to think too much.
That life scroll, Li Mu needs to feed a drop of blood every day, otherwise there will be a sense of disgust in his heart, as the feeding time increases, Li Mu more and more senses the connection between the real dragon pattern in the life scroll and him, but Li Mu is not sure, what is the use of this.
A drop of blood every day is nothing, but the unknown purpose of this life scroll makes him hesitate a little. I don't know if it's time to continue.
After Li Mu and Carlos left the Tarot system in a spaceship, they drove the prepared flying machine towards the planet designated by the pirates.
"It's really just the two of us who have passed, and you people who are stuck in the house are very relieved of you, and you are not afraid that the pirates will kill us directly." Li Mu smiled at Carros while driving the flying machine.
"If I can exchange my life for that batch of goods, I think the elders in the family should be happy." Cartos said lightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Then why are you going? Do you think this thing is more important than your life? "Li Mu doesn't understand Karos a little.
"Of course, this thing is not more important than my life, but as long as I can get this batch back. In the future, my position in the family will be stable, and several elders in the family have promised me that as long as I can get the goods back, I will now manage the family business. Some of them will go directly to my name, and I don't have to hand over the profits to them. ”
"Do you want to exchange your life for value?" Li Mu asked with a light sigh.
"With these properties, I don't have to be at the mercy of my family anymore. Even if I die, these inheritances can be inherited by my sister. Unlike now, where all industries are family-owned. No matter how good I do, they can take it back at any time. Carlos said indifferently.
Li Mu didn't speak again, Carlos had his difficulties, Li Mu was not in his position, it was difficult to understand his feelings, and it was not appropriate to say anything more.
"Moreover, I have confidence in you, with your skills, you should be able to easily shake off the pursuit of those pirates, right?" Calos said with a smile.
"Don't say that my skills are just average, even if I am really strong, it will be difficult to survive the pursuit of the fleet, right?" LI MU IS NOT A KEN AFTER ALL, ALTHOUGH HE HAS LEARNED SOME DRIVING SKILLS FROM A KEN, BUT HE HAS NOT YET HAD THE ABILITY TO ESCAPE FROM THE ARMY.
"If you have the chance, I'm sure you can." Kalos had a relaxed expression, as if he was just out for a trip, and took a bottle of drink to Li Mu, leaning back on the chair, enjoying the delicious taste of the high-end drink.
"What the hell is that shipment? Is it worth the price your family has to pay? Li Mu asked seemingly casually.
"I don't know, in fact, I'm pretty much the same as you know, I've only seen the virtual image of that thing, it's a bronze box, I don't know anything else, several elders in the family value this thing very much, but they don't want to tell me what is inside, they just say it's okay to take the bronze box back." Carros said.
"Aren't they afraid that the pirates have already taken the contents or repackaged them?" Li Mu said.
"I must not be afraid, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to tell me what was inside." Carros shook his head helplessly, he was actually just a tool in the family.
Li Mu couldn't ask anything from Calos, but the spaceship had quickly arrived at the designated planet, which was an uninhabitable planet, all of which were cold rocks, Li Mu and the two turned on the radar to scan the vicinity, but they didn't scan anything, in fact, they didn't need to scan, there was nothing bare on the planet, and they could see the edge at a glance.
Suddenly, a communication request was displayed on the screen of the aircraft, Li Mu and Carros glanced at each other, but after they were connected, it was a person wearing star armor and covered all over his body, and he didn't know what race it was.
"Which one of you is Calos?" The man asked directly in the lingua franca of the universe.
"Mine, what do you call it?" Kalos asked, looking at the man.
"Red Seven." To Li Mu and Carlos's surprise, the man actually answered Kalos, but this one didn't sound like a real name.
It's just that after Carlos and Li Mu heard the name, they were a little discolored. There is a group of pirate gangs near Tarot Star who call themselves Red Pirates, each pirate's name is from the beginning of the red to the back, the red one is the boss of the red pirates, the legend is that the red pirates are ranked by strength, the higher the ranking of the name, the stronger the strength, the legend is that the red one is a nine-level powerhouse in the universe, but no one has really seen it, it's just a legend.
However, one thing is certain, among the pirate gangs near the Tarot system, the Red Pirates are one of the best pirate groups, and have even robbed large armed fleets, which is by no means comparable to ordinary small pirates.
"What's the matter, didn't you say that the pirates who robbed that shipment were a group of pirates from Ranma Beach? How did you become a Red Pirate? Li Mu looked at Karos.
"You don't have to doubt it, we Red Pirates have always liked to do things unexpectedly, and when we contacted you, we asked others to do a small favor for fear of making trouble, after all, it is really a bit troublesome to ransom this kind of thing, if it weren't for the fact that you have a very good value of cardholding, we can't take the risk to do this kind of thing." Red Seven said.
Kalos nodded in understanding: "I brought all the star energy you wanted, what about our family's goods?" ”
"You don't have to worry, of course we can't trade with you in this kind of place, follow our flying machine." After Hong Qi finished speaking, he directly cut off the communication.
Li Mu saw that a moving object appeared on the radar at some point, but it was a flying machine that flew out of a crack in the rock.
Karos wanted to say something, but the other party didn't give him a chance to speak, seeing that the flying machine was gradually moving away from them, if he didn't keep up, he would probably lose his sight.
"Come along." Kalos said helplessly, the other party didn't give him a chance to bargain at all, although it was dangerous to be led by the nose like this, but there was no other way.
The opponent's aircraft quickly entered a meteorite belt, and Li Mu and the others also followed, although they knew that this complex terrain was too suitable for ambushes, if the other party intended to kill them, they only needed to hide some combat aircraft on those meteorites, and after introducing them into the encirclement, it was too easy to get rid of them.
It's just that now Li Mu and Karos have no other choice but to fly inside, Li Mu admires Karos a little, he is sure that he can escape, so he is not very afraid, but Karos also has a relaxed look, as if he doesn't see these dangers at all, which has to be admired.
This meteorite belt is very wide, like a vast ocean with no edge in sight, and they follow the aircraft in front of them around, and soon get lost in the meteorite belt, and there is no way to distinguish the path of the comeder.
There are all kinds of meteorites floating here, there is no fixed channel at all, even if the road is recorded, it is useless, those meteorites are always moving and changing, and from time to time there are meteorites colliding together and splitting into smaller meteorites, and it is impossible to remember the way.
Up to now, Li Mu could only follow the aircraft forward, and after driving for more than ten hours in a row, the aircraft in front of him stopped and asked for communication again.
Li Mu thought he had arrived at the trading place, but he didn't expect that the other party just told them to take a break, and after resting for half an hour, the aircraft took off again, and Li Mu followed.
The flight time was far longer than Li Mu thought, and after flying for more than eighty hours in a row, the front suddenly became empty, and the strange-shaped meteorite disappeared, only to see a red planet appear in front of Li Mu and Kalos. (To be continued......)
