Chapter 127: Speculation
Tang Ming and Xiao Bai didn't stay in the cave for long, and soon returned to the bottom of the waterfall. Tang Ming scooped himself up and plunged into the water, soaking in the cold stream water and suddenly felt refreshed.
But in his heart, he was still worried about the crater on the top of the mountain, looking at Xiao Bai who kept swimming around in front of him, Tang Ming didn't know why Xiao Bai wanted to take him to see the volcano at this moment? Animals are born with some magical abilities, such as some abnormal behavior before some major natural disasters arrive.
"Could it be that Xiaobai is warning himself about something? Is a volcano about to erupt? For his own thoughts, Tang Ming gave a negative opinion. Because Xiaobai will not have any abnormal performance at all, it is still the same as before, it is still the same delicious and fun Xiaobai.
The worst idea is where to deny, but Tang Ming can't take this volcano seriously, although he doesn't know Xiaobai's true intentions yet, he should also make some preparations in advance, and it will never be wrong to have a rainy day.
Suddenly learning that there was an active volcano on the island had completely interrupted Tang Ming's plan to come here. Excitement came and went, and the bad news was several times worse than that of the pirates.
Once this volcano does erupt one day, Tang Ming believes that no matter how hard he tries to build the island, it will eventually come to naught. Full of enthusiasm but suddenly extinguished, beautiful dreams are brutally trampled on, who encounters this feeling is absolutely not in a good mood.
Shi Shiran went ashore and slowly put on his clothes, and Tang Ming and Xiaobai went down the stream one after the other. Before leaving, he couldn't help but look back at the volcano buried under the boulder.
Big Ash has become the true leader of the wolves, and the wolves send each other off with their howls as Little White leaves. In the long wolf howl, even Tang Ming could hear the strong reluctance inside.
Xiaobai didn't look back in the end, but judging from its heavy steps, it is not difficult to guess the sadness in its heart at this moment.
"Wangwang......" Xiaobai finally couldn't help but turn around and shout at the mouth of the valley, and the whimpering sound made Tang Ming behind him tremble slightly.
There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, not to mention that Xiaobai is never a wolf, and Xiaobai's cry has caused the wolves to reply with a more intense long sigh.
Konishi at the mouth of the valley didn't know what was going on, and the wolf howl frightened him a lot, along with the two horses tied to the trunk, and he was also frightened and began to feel uneasy.
No matter how much reluctance there is, it is still necessary to separate, and the longer the nostalgia, the more difficult it is to give up, Tang Ming silently walked out of the valley and jumped on horseback. Xiao Xi saw that Tang Ming was fine, and at the same time, he was even more relaxed and didn't understand why the wolves in the valley kept howling.
Fortunately, Hou Ye was fine, he untied the reins and jumped on the horse himself to wait for Tang Ming's orders.
"Xiaobai, let's go!" Tang Ming suddenly shouted at Xiao Bai, who was still at the mouth of the valley, and galloped away with his feet between the horse's belly.
Xiao Bai finally glanced at the valley, spread his four legs and followed Tang Ming closely. Xiaobai's reluctance was because of leaving the wolves or because of the volcano, Tang Ming didn't know. He was at a loss as to what he was going to do next.
Weihai Island is quiet and peaceful at night, and the biogas digester that was in full swing two days ago has all been shut down. After thinking about it, Tang Ming finally decided not to do this for now, if the volcano on the island was not investigated for a day, he had to suspend these constructions first.
Only by finding out when the volcano will erupt can he plan ahead.
Fang Xiaoru, Li Ba and Fei Xin sat in the courtyard, looking at the anxious Tang Ming inexplicably. When he returned in the evening, he ordered them to come in a hurry, saying that they had something important to discuss.
But the three of them had been here for a quarter of an hour, but Tang Ming didn't say a word and was even more anxious.
Li Ba was the first to be the one who couldn't help it, and he said softly: "Master Hou, what do you have to worry about, say it, let's all figure it out together!" In addition to blocking your heart, even us outsiders are anxious to follow you. ”
"Yes, if there is anything difficult about Master Hou, you can tell us, I believe that we here will definitely not reveal any secrets." Fei Xin said on the side.
Fang Xiaoru nodded: "Tang boy, in the morning, you thought of using a pack of wolves as a defensive force. I went for most of the day, and when I came back, I was anxious, did the situation change and the wolves could not be used to defend? ”
"Ugh......." A sigh sounded without warning, Tang Ming shook his head step by step, sat down at the stone table, picked up the wine glass that was poured on it, and tilted his head to drain the wine in the glass.
After a few moments, he spoke: "The land on which we now tread is likely to sink in the near future. Even if it doesn't sink, everything in this land will be wiped out in an instant. ”
"Where do you start?" Fang Xiaoru and the three of them stood up in unison, with a look of surprise on their faces.
Tang Ming slowly raised his hand and pointed at Xiao Bai beside him with a wry smile: "Although I'm not sure yet, this thing is true. Today I wanted to go to the wolf's den to find Xiaobai, but I was taken by Xiaobai to a hidden cave, and until I came to the end, I actually found a volcano. ”
Looking at the different expressions of the three people opposite, he continued: "And this is an active volcano, but I tried to check closely, because the temperature is too high, I turned back after walking less than halfway, as for the real situation inside, it is indeed impossible to find out at present, but judging from the heat it emits, the situation is not optimistic." ”
An active volcano, this is not much of a shock to Fang Xiaoru and Li Ba, who have lived in the Ming Dynasty all their lives. Because the two of them had never seen the terrible scene of a volcanic eruption.
At this moment, the two of them were a little at a loss about Tang Ming's guess, but Fei Xin knew a lot. After all, since he followed Zheng He, he has gone to sea countless times, and the sea around Daming can be said to have been walked by him. It is almost common knowledge that there are many small uninhabited islands in the sea with volcanic craters.
After hearing Tang Ming's words, he didn't show any shocked look, but frowned and pondered: "I don't know where the volcano that Hou Ye said is on the island?" ”
"The highest peak in the wolf's den." Tang Ming's words are concise and to the point.
"No wonder!"
Fei Xin nodded, and said suddenly: "My subordinates have been sailing around the island these days, and the number of plants and animals here is indeed rare. And most importantly, the subordinates suspect that this place must have been visited or inhabited by someone before. And it should have been a long time ago, otherwise why are there so many bison and wild horses here, everything here should have been raised by predecessors, and over time these animals became wild. ”
