Dazi filled the glass lamp with new kerosene, and then turned the lamp head gear, and the fire immediately increased several times, and the darkness could not be hidden, and the room became bright. The old tree man had just begun to identify the treasure map, and he spread the soft parchment on the table to examine it.

Donk remained vigilant, not daring to get too close, and promised to draw his sword at any moment.

"This is a treasure map of the Cangtian, and judging from the age of the parchment, it can roughly match the year of the Cangtian's disappearance, and it is very credible. It is written in the words of the undead, and it seems that this is the answer to unravel the mystery of the disappearance of the Sky. Dazi said blandly that after thousands of years, there was nothing that could make his emotions fluctuate.

"What's written in the words of the dead?" Donk asked.

"I'll know just by listening."

"Listen?" Donk said in surprise.

"That's right, even if it's written in writing, it can only be deciphered by listening." Dazi put the treasure map to his ear, where there was a tree scar with a hole, and he closed his eyes with a serene expression.

The words of the dead on the parchment made a thin rustling sound, like weeping.

Donk's eyes widened slightly.

"I'm waiting for you on Snake Cave Island, there is a boat here, and unknown treasures, but this place is full of dangers, and the island is full of snake people. If you know the danger and insist on coming to me, come to Snake Cave Island at the beginning of the rainy month and bring the antidote of unicorn horn powder and mandrake. You have to follow the route in the map to reach the most dangerous hinterland of the island. After that you will get the ship, and I will be liberated. ”

Dazi lost his eyes and muttered a chanting.

Donk memorized each sentence by heart, and these simple words contained several important information. That ship was supposed to refer to the Sky, but what does the unknown treasure mean? Could it be that there are other good things out there?

In addition, the snake people mentioned in it should be the biggest danger of this trip.

"Why do you have to go there at the beginning of the rainy month? And what is a snake man? Where can I get that antidote? Donk asked in a snap.

Daqi replied without hesitation: "The snake people are a branch of the sea beast clan, they have fangs comparable to those of cobras, and can spit paralyzing poisonous mist, and the wooden halberds they hold can also quench poison, so they are very terrifying enemies. There are tens of thousands of snake people living on Snake Cave Island, and they will attack when they see creatures of other races, and they will not show mercy. ”

Tang Ke gasped, tens of thousands of snake people gathered together, then the matter became tricky, at best he had close to four hundred people under his hands, how could he deal with tens of thousands of troops?

"Snake people have a lot of habits and snakes are the same, they will mate and give birth at the beginning of the rainy moon every year, for a month, the treasure map allows you to go at this time, just to avoid the snake people on the island, it will be relatively safe."

Donk estimated that it was the beginning of the Christmas month, and there were still two months before the rainy moon, but Snake Cave Island was far away and time was pressing.

Dazi continued: "As for the antidote, mandrake is a common medicine and is widely cultivated, but unicorn horn powder is very rare, and all that is sold on the market is non-pure unicorn horn powder, which costs about 1,000 gold coins a pound, and can make a hundred antidotes. ”

Donk nodded in satisfaction, then asked reluctantly, "Is there anything else important?" ”

"You have to sail strictly according to the records on the treasure map, and the snake cave island is filled with poisonous fog all year round, and inhaling the air there for a long time will cause poisoning of the slow surname, and you will have to take the antidote every five days. What's more, once you alarm the snake people on the island, you will die there. Dazi admonished.

"Thanks for the reminder, is there anything else?"

"It's gone."

Donk stretched out his hand, and the other party wisely returned the treasure map to him, and he smiled and saluted, and said, "Thank you sincerely again, although I think you should be given some hardship money, but seeing that your home is so magnificent, there should be no shortage of petty profits, goodbye, old man." ”

"Goodbye, child, and I wish you a good time with those snake people." The Treant didn't like such a bad boy and replied.

Donk got the answer he wanted, stepped back, and said, "If I have any questions, I'll come to you again, and take me to apologize to your butler." ”

The Tree Man chuckled dryly, watching the bad boy escape, he didn't chase it, it was just a small episode of the night, and it would not leave any mark in his long river of human growth.

Tang Ke returned triumphantly, in a happy mood, and successfully escaped from the compound all the way, climbed over the wall and returned to the street, where he joined the one-eyed and others who were waiting outside. It was late that night, and Tang Ke didn't elaborate, but after returning to the hotel, he let everyone rest for a good night, and then think about it tomorrow. The others, though curious, were also very sleepy and did not object.

Unable to sleep, Tonk was so excited by this dangerous treasure hunt that he called up the [Sea Chart] interface and found the location of Snake Cave Island, just south of Port Sasot. He used the functions that come with the system to calculate the voyage and calculated that it would take about a month and a half to sail there.

In this way, he still has less than half a month to prepare, and then he must set sail, otherwise he will miss the beginning of the rainy moon and will have to wait for the next year to go on a treasure hunt.

He slept all night in his thoughts, and the next day he excitedly gathered everyone together, including important crew members such as One-Eye, Flower Dew, and Saiba Stephen, as well as several sailor captains.

Everyone gathered around the table, and an old treasure map was laid out on the table, which had been brought to the table for the first time.

Like a host, Tang Ke said eloquently: "This is a treasure map, I have found someone to identify it, and it is 100% true." It records the location of a ship and has an important treasure, and the location is on the island of Snake Cave. I was determined to go there and find the ship and the treasure. ”

"Snake Cave Island is dangerous." One-Eye said in unison with Wendy.

These two are natives of the other world, and they know the legend about Snake Cave Island, although it is not as notorious as the Ten Forbidden Seas, but no one dares to go there to die. Thousands of snake people are stationed there, attacking all alien creatures, their fangs chilling.

Although Hualu is also an aborigine, she is still young and grew up on Starfish Island, so she is lonely and unheard, and it is the first time she has heard about Snake Cave Island.

"I know Snake Cave Island is dangerous, but I know how to avoid them!" Tang Ke told the beginning of the rainy moon, at that time, the snake people were busy mating and giving birth, and they would gather together, as long as they avoided the snake crowd that mated, they could safely reach the location of the treasure.

The crew and sailors recruited by the system had no objections, and Cliff, who had a rough surname, was even more excited and strongly supported the treasure hunt. Saiba Stephen began to think about the recipe for the antidote he knew, and fell into deep thought.

One-Eye was a little hesitant, but the thought of finding the Sky strengthened his confidence. If you want to deal with a magic ship like the Purgatory, you must also use a magic ship, and getting the Sky is a great opportunity.

Wendy sees Donk as a benefactor, and even in dangerous places, she will abide by her duties as captain and steer the ship in.

Hua Lu is mainly looking for her sister, and she has no interest in treasures and magic ships, but her surname is weak, and she doesn't dare to express her opinion even if she doesn't want to.

The treasure hunt was unanimously approved, and Tang Ke slapped the table and said with a bang: "If you can successfully find the Cangtian, even if there is no other treasure, each sailor will get five gold coins, and the crew will share twenty gold coins!" If you find a treasure, you will be rewarded with an extra one! ”

After making this promise, the sailors' positive surnames were mobilized, and several sailors' group leaders said that they would pass on the good news.

"But keep the matter of the Cangtian secret from other sailors for the time being, so as not to attract bees and butterflies, after all, the Cangtian is also a magic ship, and other captains will also covet this ship." Tang Ke finally admonished.

After that, it entered the stage of intense preparation, and the main characters of the pirate group began to divide their labor.

Donk told the ship doctor about the two ingredients, and asked the ship doctor to buy and concoct the antidote, because the batch of drugs was too expensive, and the cost could only be controlled to less than 2,000 gold coins.

Because of the serious shortage of antidotes, Tang Ke used the system to exchange for thirty bottles of antidote, each bottle costs 20 reward points, the above introduction says that it can remove snake venom, but I don't know how effective it is to deal with snake people, and it can only be used as emergency medicine.

One-Eye and Wendy are in charge of other things to prepare for the voyage, such as buying spare sails and rigging, as well as sunscreen and sailing gloves, and inquiring about the route to Snake Cave Island, especially if there are any pirates and navies active on the route recently.

Recently, there has been really big news that the Goldenbeard Pirate Regiment is rushing to the Greenland Empire and will pass through this route. Goldbeard's trip was to collect tribute from the Greenland Empire and sign a treaty not to attack Greenland's ships for three years.

To put it bluntly, Goldbeard is going to collect protection money from the Greenland Empire.

The most important part of this trip is the antidote, after the antidote is purchased, two weeks have passed, and Tang Ke is anxious to become an ant on a hot pot, and the antidote is announced to go to sea on the day it is in hand.

Everyone rushed to the port and found the long-stayed Dragon Scroll and Black Pearl at the docks. The antidote is now regarded as a sweetheart more important than gold coins, and is divided equally between the two ships to avoid accidents. Donk went to the port and took out the slaves and the spitter frogs that were being held in the port.

Everyone boarded the ship one after another, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic.

Donk's heart fluctuated, standing on the deck of the long-lost Tornado, looking around, by chance, he found a familiar figure on a boat, it turned out to be Lawrence escorting prisoners onto the ship!
