Chapter 1426: Rumors from Ten Years Ago
Handing the book about Iron Heart Island in his hand to Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, Richard made a pensive look, silently opened the friend panel, found Ai Shuishui and sent a message.
"Shui Shui, is there a terminal illness in this world that can be cured with divine weapons?"
Ai Shuishui quickly replied to the message, "Divine weapons have always been murderous things, how can they cure terminal diseases?" There is nothing about this in all the medical books I have studied. Wait a minute, I'll ask my master. ”
Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun took the book and read it quickly, raised their heads and glanced at each other, Nie Feng said slowly: "In this way, the situation on Iron Heart Island is not much different from what the White Emperor said. It seems that he did not lie to us. ”
"Tie Wuji, who holds the Heavenly Sin, should be a disciple of the Iron God Sect, the current owner of Iron Heart Island, then the White Emperor should be the disciple called Tie Madness? Listening to what City Lord Ye just said, that Iron Slaughter is a man with empty eyes and ambitions. But the White Emperor is not like this at all, it's really weird. ”
A moment later, Ai Shuishui reappeared and sent a message to Richard, "Ximengua, I just asked my master." He didn't know what terminal illness could be cured with a divine weapon, so the two of us discussed it and thought it would be bloodletting therapy you were talking about? And that magic weapon is a tool for bloodletting? ”
Phlebotomy?
Richard quickly rejected this speculation after a little thought, according to Ye Gucheng's statement and the record in the book, Iron Heart Island is rich in good weapons, if it is a bloodletting therapy, any sword can be used, why must it be a peerless sword?
He thanked Ai Shuishui, closed the friend panel, looked up at Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, and asked, "What day is today?" ”
Nie Feng replied: "There are still exactly seven days before the agreement with the White Emperor, and according to the location recorded in the book map, from Feixian Island to Tiexin Island, three days is enough at most. ”
Ye Gucheng waved his hand and said, "In less than three days, I will send a clipper on the island to send you there, at most it will only take a day and a half." ”
When Nie Feng heard this, he immediately hugged his fists and thanked him, while Richard picked up the book on Iron Heart Island and asked, "Brother Gucheng, can I copy a copy of this book?" ”
Ye Gucheng smiled and said, "Why bother Brother Simon with such a trivial matter? Just ask the people in the house to do it. ”
Richard shook his head and rejected Ye Gucheng's proposal, but asked Ye Gucheng to borrow his pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and four treasures of the study, and sat behind the desk and began to transcribe the contents of the book.
The process of transcribing is also a process of re-reading, and it may be possible to discover things that you didn't notice when you first read them, and thus discover new information and clues.
When he copied the second half of the book, he suddenly stopped writing, and a sentence in the book caught his attention - a vision from the sky on Iron Heart Island, and it was rumored that a divine soldier had appeared.
He turned back to the previous pages and glanced at the year, and found that it happened to be ten years ago, which coincided with the succession time of the current owner of Tiexin Island, which Ye Gucheng said!
He couldn't wait to stand up and subconsciously asked, "Brother Lonely City, the divine soldiers on Iron Heart Island are here..."
At this time, Richard found that the study was empty, Ye Gucheng, Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng had left at some point, and the sky outside the window was also dark.
He patted his head and laughed dumbly, this copy of the book, unconsciously so long has passed, even the sky is almost dark.
"Squeak~"
The door of the study was pushed open at this time, and the old butler held a candlestick in his right hand, and closed his left hand around the flickering candle flame, and walked in cautiously.
Seeing Richard standing up, he hurriedly put down the candle flame in his hand and said apologetically: "Simon Shaoxia... The old slave thought that it was getting late, so he sent you a fire, but he didn't want to disturb you, and asked the young man to forgive him. ”
Richard shook his head with a smile, and asked softly in his heart: "Butler, do you know about the appearance of the divine soldiers on Ironcore Island ten years ago?" ”
The old housekeeper said softly: "How can you not know that this incident spread throughout the South China Sea back then, and even the three-year-old children on the streets and alleys knew that there was a divine weapon unparalleled in the world on Iron Heart Island. At that time, Ironcore Island was very lively, the island was surrounded by boats, and everyone was staring at Ironcore Island to see what the legendary divine soldier looked like. ”
But in the end, no one saw the appearance of the divine soldier, so there were rumors that there were no divine soldiers on Iron Heart Island at all, and these were just disguises made up by the people on Iron Heart Island. Later, everyone gradually forgot about it. But at that time, the old slave had heard a rumor, I don't know if it was true or not. ”
Richard hurriedly asked, "What rumors?" ”
The old butler said slowly: "At that time, there was a rumor that there was not one, but two visions on Iron Heart Island. In addition to the divine light descending from the sky, the earth in Tiexin Island cracked at that time, and magma gushed out from the ground. But no one has ever been to Ironheart Island, and I don't know if this rumor is true or not, according to the old slave, it is a lie made up by those good people. ”
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Hearing the old butler's words, and then linking the content of the book and his own guess just now, Richard had a flash of inspiration in his mind, as if he had grasped something, but it seemed to be the last layer of light veil away from the truth of the matter, and he couldn't see it in a hazy way.
"Butler, do you know where Brother Gucheng, Brother Nie, and Brother Bu are now?"
The old housekeeper replied: "The city lord took the two young heroes of Fengyun to the back mountain of Feixian Island, saying that he wanted to take guests to watch the tide of Feixian Island. ”
Richard thanked him, hurriedly walked out of the study, and left the City Lord's Mansion and headed straight for the back mountain. When I came to the top of the back mountain, I saw that there were only Ye Gucheng and Bu Jingyun on the top of the mountain, and Nie Feng was nowhere to be seen.
He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, and approached and was about to ask, but Bu Jingyun made a silent gesture towards him, and snorted forward.
Richard looked forward, his pupils shrinking slightly. I saw Nie Feng standing on the most central stone pillar below, his eyes closed, and his waist straight, like a spear!
Under the dim sky, a huge wave rose on the sea level in the distance, and it came quickly towards the cliff behind the mountain. The speed of the huge wave is extremely fast, the next moment it is still at the end of the sea level, and the next moment it appears less than a hundred feet away, this wave is extremely high, even much higher than the cliff, the momentum is terrifying.
As the huge waves gradually approached, Richard even felt the ground trembling slightly under his feet, and the stone pillar below continued to shake at an amplitude visible to the naked eye, while Nie Feng, who was standing on the stone pillar, seemed to be rooted in the stone pillar, and his body was motionless.
Richard suddenly thought of something, swallowed his saliva and muttered in a low voice, "Epiphany? Damn, no. ”
