Chapter Twenty-Three: Ancestral Treasures
After careful identification, Jack found that the pirate treasure drawn on the map was located on this island, so he asked Rousi to lead his men to find the treasure according to the map. After arranging, when I looked back and saw this scene, I couldn't help but sneer:
"Hmph, Zhang Baozai, you fool, you can't imagine it, the treasure map you have been looking for for decades is hidden in this woman who has been sleeping with you for more than ten years. Do you often dream that you get the treasure map first? You're a failure. ”
Zhang Baozai was silent.
Jack said to the two men on the ground:
"Legend has it that Kidd, a great pirate nicknamed Moby Dick, gave his most important treasure to an island. Before going to sea for the last time, he gave a treasure map to his most faithful bodyguards for safekeeping. After that voyage, Moby Dick's pirate fleet never returned. I always thought it was a rumor, and I didn't believe it, but now it seems that this legend is true. ”
Jack looked at the two of them, with a strange expression on his face, and finally said:
"I can't imagine that there is really a person in this world. It's a pity that the descendants of such a person broke this promise for the sake of a woman. I don't know if he's a good guy or a fool. ”
Xia Mingzhu has been wearing this necklace for more than twenty years, but she didn't know until today that there was such a huge secret and wealth hidden in it, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she heard it, and looked at the two men, Zhang Baozai's face was cloudy, and Lin Laoshi had a bloodstained face.
Lin honestly said frankly:
"Whether it's a good man or a fool, it's all a label put by someone else, and it has nothing to do with me. …… What I did, I knew for myself, I didn't go against my family motto, I didn't go against my heart, and that's enough. She doesn't know anything about the treasure and the map, so just ask me. ”
Jack shrugged and said:
It can be seen that if she knew, Zhang Baozai would not have worked so hard. Bao Zai, what are you still doing in a daze? Take your woman aside. ”
When Jack said "your woman", he deliberately bit the accent and said it word by word.
Zhang Baozai had a complicated heart, but his face pretended to be calm, he stepped forward and hugged Xia Mingzhu, and whispered a word, wanting to take her aside, but unexpectedly Xia Mingzhu pushed him away and said coldly:
"I'm not leaving, you're going to go by yourself."
Xia Mingzhu's strength is not great, but this push seems to have caused Zhang Baozai to receive a critical blow, plus the words "If you want to go, you go by yourself" seem to have the effect of soul attack, Zhang Baozai staggered to the side, and was a little soulless.
Jack casually moved a stool over and sat down, and said:
"Boss Lin, tell me the story of Moby Dick Kidd and your family's family motto, I'm quite interested."
Lin honestly coughed twice and said:
"Ahem, yes,...... Little beads, help me to sit by the wall...... Well, so be it. Xiaozhuzi, you go and pour me a bowl of bean sprout soup, and go to the cabinet in Xiaoxia's room and take out the glass bottle with beans. ”
Lin Laoshi sat down against the wall, and after letting Xia Mingzhu go to get something, he said slowly while reminiscing:
"The legend you just said is wrong, and the truth is that Kidd gave the treasure map to the bodyguards instead of the crew. The reason why Moby Dick Kidd is so famous among pirates is because he has a lot of good rules, one of which is that the crew who has been with him for more than 10 years can get a treasure when they want to wash their hands - one is randomly drawn from the map where the treasure was buried before. The maps are in a glass bottle in Kidd's captain's quarters. The value of this treasure is entirely up to luck. ”
Lin honestly said this, took a breath, and at this time, Xia Mingzhu came out with a bowl in one hand and a bottle in the other. Lin Laoshi picked up the glass bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle, poured out a bean, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, and swallowed the bean seedling soup in the bowl.
Jack watched Lin honestly finish drinking the soup, and then said slowly:
"Boss Lin, I heard that your soup bean sprouts have the effect of quickly relieving fatigue and restoring physical strength?"
Lin Laoshi's state was "much better" and replied:
"yes. Everyone on the island knows it. Small beads, give ...... Give this gentleman a bowl and try it. ”
The Lin family's reputation is the soup bean sprouts, and Lin Laoshi uses the bean sprout soup to cover up the role of fairy beans. In fact, after eating the fairy bean, Lin Laoshi's injury had already healed, but he didn't dare to show the magic of the fairy bean, so he could only pretend to look a little better.
Jack refused Lin's honest invitation to drink soup and eat pacman, and gestured to continue.
Lin was unimpressed and continued:
"In fact, before you can draw a treasure map, you need to draw a number of years to open the treasure. Because the pirates who washed their hands in the golden basin had lived a life of licking blood on the cusp of the waves, had no concept of financial management, and basically did not have any savings, in order to prevent them from squandering the treasure soon after getting it, Kidd felt that he had to add a lock to this treasure, and this lock was the interval between openings. Time from 1 to 10, the unit is not a year, but a generation, for example, draw to 1, that means that the next generation of this person can open the treasure, which is good, most of them can still be seen in their lifetime, if the draw is 10 people, then don't think about it, 10 generations after the descendants can open the treasure. ”
Jack had been listening very carefully, and when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing:
"Hahahaha, interesting! Beluga is really interesting! I'm willing to bet that if you don't draw 10, even if it's a number above 3, the person who draws it will immediately discourage the idea of retiring and continue to work as a pirate. ”
Lin Laoshi said:
"You're wrong! Most people do. But the map you just got, the person who drew him will be drawn for 10 years! ”
Jack couldn't help but be stunned!
Lin honestly sighed and said:
"I'm in the 9th generation, and I wanted to wait for my son to tell him about it when he is an adult and pass on the map to him. It's a pity that he doesn't have the life of the rich second generation. ”
As soon as Jack remembered that he hadn't heard his subordinates report the whereabouts of Lin Laoshi's son, he heard heavy footsteps outside the door, and after a while, Rousi came in with two big men.
"Jack, I'm glad I didn't lose my life!"
After that, he opened the capsule in his hand and threw it on the ground, the capsule turned into a big box and put it on the ground, and the two big men stepped forward to open the lid, revealing a box of gold and silver jewelry, and the original simple restaurant instantly shone with jewels!
The moment the box was opened, all the people in the restaurant were attracted by the jewelry, and their eyes were full of various colors, and there were greed, joy, surprise, frustration, and surprise in the light......
It was Xia Mingzhu who was surprised; Frustrated is Zhang Baozai; And it was Lin Laoshi who was surprised.
Lin Laoshi just deliberately said that Lin Xia did not have the life of the rich second generation, in fact, he was covering for his son, in his heart, the treasure had already been packed and moved away by Lin Xia, who knew that the meat silk actually brought back this box of jewels with the ancestral treasure map of the Lin family, which made Lin Laoshi surprised in his heart:
Isn't the treasure that Lin Xia said that day the ancestral treasure of the Lin family? If not, whose treasure is it?
In fact, the treasure that was discovered by the cultivation bead, opened by Lin Xia and packed away, is the biggest treasure left by the legendary great pirate beluga. What the meat ribbon man opened was the treasure that the ancestors of the Lin family drew back then. The value of the two treasures is hugely different, but the treasure room is only a few meters apart.
After Lin Xia entered the treasure room of the white whale, because he found the fragments of the cultivation beads, he was surprised, and one person and one bead did not check the treasure too carefully, so the treasure drawn by the ancestors of the Lin family was preserved to this day.
Hundreds of years have passed since the excavation of the treasure room and the storage of the treasure, and the opening of the two treasures has its own story, so no one can fully understand the twists and turns in between.
