"Move fast!" Zhuang Du kept looking behind the door of the command room, and ordered Lu Xiu impatiently. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's not my fault, the nails of the ship's board are all wooden, there is no sign of decay at all, and it is impossible to lift them with bare hands." Lu Xiu said hatefully, "If you really want me to speed up, you should at least give me one or two tools." ”

The little finger of the young man's right hand had been forcibly straightened by himself, but he was still in pain and unable to exert force. Under Lu Yingying's command, he tried to lift the deck under the command platform, but he couldn't do so with just one hand, after several attempts.

"He's right, the big ships of the sea can be dismantled empty-handed, and those crew members don't know how many times they have died in the sea." Lu Yingying had tears on her face, but she said coldly, "The nails used to connect the ship's board are special cork, which will absorb water and swell in the air. ”

"......" The young master of the Zhuang family slammed the heavy sword in his hand into the wallboard, pulled out a palm-length dagger from his waist with his backhand, and threw it in front of Lu Xiu with a loud bang, "This is the only use, don't let me hear any other excuses." ”

Zhuang Du didn't know the truth or falsehood of the girl's words, but the efficiency of exploration at the moment was more important than anything else. Besides, even if he gave Xiaolongren a weapon, it would be difficult for him to make any waves. As long as you guard against his mysterious deterrent ability, you won't be able to plant a child twice.

The trainee picked up the knife and cut it underneath the podium. The blade of the dagger was thin, and Lu Xiu easily plunged through the gap in the plank, and his uninjured left hand pried it vigorously. There was a tooth-aching creak, and the upper planks slowly broke apart, revealing the intricate tenon-jointed hull structure inside.

"What did you find?"

"What are these? Resin? The boy pried open a few planks around the perimeter. In the light of the torches, the gaps in the wooden keel are filled with layers of bizarre translucent gelatinous substance. Lu Xiu poked the tip of the knife in, and it felt like it had been inserted into a soft and glutinous cake, he scraped a small piece with the blade of the knife, and dipped it with his fingers, and the fingertips were full of a slippery and sticky feeling, which was annoying.

"Let me see." Lu Yingying looked at Zhuang Dui's eyes.

The young master of the dealer had a cloudy face, but the blade across the girl's door did not mean to let go.

"Come on, there's only one door in this room, and you're still worried that we'll run away?" Now is the time when the young man in black needs to use himself, and the little scholar's confidence gradually grows, "Or can you investigate it on your own?" ”

"Don't do anything boring, and I'll notice the moment you're lying." The black-clothed young man put down his sword, retreated to the vicinity of the door, and drove Lu Yingying to investigate with his eyes.

"It's not just ordinary pine resin, it looks like a paint made from a mixture of pine oil and wax." The girl stroked her hair, which had been messed up by the commotion. After all, it is very old, and Lu Yingying's learning focuses on history, rather than specific materials and techniques, and the girl can only vaguely judge, "It is probably a temporary filling material used during the leakage of the hull cracks." ”

"But this reserve ...... It's too much of an exaggeration. As he spoke, Lu Xiu pried open a few more planks, and a small piece of open space under the command platform was almost hollowed out. Under the reflection of the torches, the feet of the two almost turned into a huge pool of pine resin, and the thick liquid filled all the gaps between the two decks, the liquid level was as horizontal as a mirror, glowing with a beautiful amber color, and through it you could even see the ceiling below, "No matter how big the ship is, it doesn't need so much replenishment, right?" ”

"It's not to fill the cracks, it's for sealing." Lu Yingying stood up and faced Zhuang Du, "Pine resin is the cheapest and most effective sealing material that can be found in the shipbuilding process. When done correctly, the envelope can be almost completely cut off from the surrounding air and water, and can be used as an efficient fuel if necessary, destroying the contents in a single fire. ”

"I guessed right, the treasure should be sealed down here." The girl said slowly, "Now you just need to find a way to empty this layer of grease." ”

"Then empty it." Zhuang Du ordered without question.

"Are you sure you want to do that?" The little scribe's voice was raised, "I don't think it's a good idea. ”

"Any other questions?"

"I don't know what is sealed in this pool of pine oil...... "the girl pursed her lips, "the shipbuilders have gone to great lengths to isolate it, and even to carry this pine resin across the ocean is not a whim." Maybe there's something hidden in this pool that can explode when it comes into contact with air. Helping you do things is to survive, and I don't want to die in the process. ”

"There won't be any danger." The young man in black was about to reach the limit of his patience, "You just have to do what I say." ”

"You're not convincing right now." Lu Yingying spread her hands, "At this time, are you still unwilling to tell us the true face of the strange treasure?" ”

"Damn! It's not a weapon! Zhuang Du shouted, but realized that Bai Bei might return at any time, so he had to lower his voice, "The news I got is that there is a power equipment hidden here that can use the power in the 'Dragon Jade'. ”

"Why this technology?" Lu Yingying's face was suspicious, "Even if there is a way to put it into use, there won't be many dragon jades in this world to burn......

"What is Dragon Jade?" Even though he knew that it was not the right time, Lu Xiu couldn't help but whisper in the girl's ear.

"It is equivalent to the second heart of the ancient dragon species, even in the primeval period when a large number of ancient dragon species can be hunted, such materials are extremely ......" Lu Yingying's words choked up, and then her breathing became short, "You...... What do you want is the dragon jade in that device? ”

Zhuang Du was noncommittal, but his face became more agitated.

"So, what we're looking for is the most important part of an ancient dragon's corpse?" The suspicion on the scholar's face did not subside, "You don't happen to know which ancient dragon species the dragon jade embedded in the instrument belongs to, right?" ”

"I don't know much about it, but I'm pretty sure it's a relic from the body of a dragon called 'Kusharutaola'." At this point, Zhuang Du no longer hid it, "Now can you do what I say?" ”

"It's even more unlikely." Hearing the names of the obscure dragons, Lu Yingying's expression changed several times, and finally sank deeply, "Only this piece of dragon jade, I must persuade you to give up, otherwise, we will all die here." ”
