Chapter 503: Chaos in the Sea
High seas.
Above the ocean, on a remote island.
The dragon has been here for an unknown amount of time.
It's isolated, with no outside information and no modern equipment to connect everything on land.
The only thing the dragon can feel is the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.
Until he didn't know what day it was.
On this huge island, except for the lush trees and the beasts hidden in the corners, he was the only one left.
When the dragon knew that the island under his feet might be the legendary ocean tomb, his whole person ignited his fighting spirit.
It took him two months to recover from his injuries, but he still had a long way to go.
As the repair deepened, the hidden dragon realized that the injuries caused to him by the star's arrows were huge.
The sequelae have always been with him, and if he can't recover the strength of the Nine Grades, this sequelae will follow him for the rest of his life.
At the same time, the Hidden Dragon is constantly searching the island.
In the end, however, all he had to do was find the bare tombstone, the first one he saw.
Other than that, he couldn't find any evidence that the site was a cemetery.
It stands to reason that if this is a cemetery, there should always be an entrance to the tomb.
But in the past six months, the dragon has searched the whole island, looking for all the corners, and he has turned over the entire land of the island!
However, he was completely at a loss and could not find a place to go to the grave.
He even wondered for a moment whether this island was really the marine tomb he had guessed.
Just when Qianlong thought that the matter was interrupted and it was difficult to continue to move forward.
He was amazed to find the island under his feet.
It's starting to tremble!
It all goes back thousands of miles to another island in the ocean.
The old man in the coffin had plundered slaves to the island, so he had a special person to calculate the time.
Half a year has passed since he left land.
In the past six months, he took this group of slaves to establish a small ecological environment on the island.
At least it can provide for the survival of this group of people.
However, once again, by chance, the old man in the coffin discovered that there was something special about this island.
Because the slaves had brought him something unusual on this island.
It is a square stone tablet with traces of writing on it, but the handwriting is blurred.
The old man guarding the coffin used the same method as the hidden dragon, but instead of using human blood, he used burned black dust to spread on it, and suddenly the words became much clearer.
If it had been before, the old man guarding the coffin might not have hesitated to kill a slave.
But now the situation is different, slave resources are scarce, and it is difficult to replenish new slaves if you kill one.
Therefore, the old people guarding the coffin are trying to prevent these slaves from dying due to various diseases due to water and soil.
On the stele, there is a total of one word written.
It's still an ancient text.
It so happened that among the slaves was a scholar who was a university teacher who studied history.
When he stayed on the island for three months, he knew that he would not be able to return to mainland China for the rest of his life.
He quickly accepted reality and planned to live a fulfilling life here.
However, under the management of the old man guarding the coffin, all slaves kept a strict distance from each other.
However, this scholar is at a young age, especially in a place where the bird does not, and nothing can divert his attention and kill his desires.
He targeted the other female slaves, but the person he feared more was the old man guarding the coffin.
When this stele appeared, the scholar sensed that the opportunity had come!
Maybe he can take advantage of this opportunity to curry favor with the old man guarding the coffin, and then improve his status here.
Not to mention too much, at least become the leader of the management of this group of slaves.
In this way, there is a way for his various selfish desires to be released.
"Master, I was a scholar of history when I was on land, maybe I have a way to decipher the text on it!"
Hearing the words of a slave volunteering, the old man guarding the coffin raised his head slightly, looked at the slave in front of him and nodded slowly.
"Crack it out, there's a reward!"
When the scholar slave heard this, he couldn't suppress the excitement on his face.
He carefully took the stele and found that there was a word on it.
The most important thing is that this character is not a font for any kind of script in history!
If you don't set a premise for it, the font must be a font that can be used and understood.
Then the scholar slave would probably assert that this thing is a ghost drawing, and that someone may have carved it twice at random.
However, the scholar slave naturally cannot speak the words of his heart.
Then he gave a slightly troubled look.
"Master, if you want to decipher this kind of text, if you follow it before, I need a lot of books for me to read and reference. But in a place like this, I'm afraid I can only spend a huge amount of time. ”
"However, I have a way to speed up the cracking process."
The old man guarding the coffin listened to the words of the scholar slave and raised his brows slightly.
"What's the solution?"
The scholar slave pretended to have a serious expression according to the excitement in his heart.
"I need two, oh no, three female slaves to help me crack this stele! And, no one can bother with the cracking process! ”
Hear here.
The old man guarding the coffin looked at the stele, and he had an intuition that the words on the stele would play a great role!
"Yes, you can choose these slaves at will, I only have one request, to decipher the text content on it as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
When the scholar slave heard this, he hurriedly walked up to the female slave, his eyes swept wantonly, and then picked out the three female slaves with the most beautiful and best figures.
"That room on the high slope is for you temporarily."
"Yes!"
The scholar slave then dragged the three female slaves to a room on a high slope.
This is a room that only the old man who guards the coffin is qualified to live in.
All the slaves lived on land, and that was the place where the pigsty lived.
A week passed.
The old man guarding the coffin was a little impatient, and this scholar slave shirked every time and was about to study it, so he had to give a little more patience.
Finally, the scholar slave walked out of the room refreshed, holding a stone tablet in his hand, and a happy look on his face.
"Master, I've already researched it!"
"What's the content?"
"The words written on this, if I guess correctly, should be sea characters!"
"Guessed?"
Hearing this, the old man guarding the coffin's eyes narrowed slightly.
After so much time studying, he didn't want to hear the three words that he finally guessed.
Only then did the scholar slave understand that he had leaked his mouth, and he hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, it's not a guess, this is the result of my research!" ”
The old man guarding the coffin sneered: "Really? ”
"You've drained what trust I have in you."
The voice fell.
The scholar slave's eyes widened and he fell to the ground unwillingly, a cut on his neck.
The coffin next to it trembled, and instantly swallowed the scholar slave inside.
In front of everyone, they saw the miserable death of the scholar slave, and they immediately trembled with fright, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to move.
The old man in the coffin glanced back at the slaves.
"I'm keeping you to work, not to enjoy here! If there is anyone like him who enjoys himself by the means of work, then everyone will end up like him! ”
After speaking, the old man guarding the coffin picked up the stele again.
"The sea, the sea of the ocean?"
The old man guarding the coffin muttered to himself, as if he had thought of something.
"The Ocean Tomb?"
"Could it be that the land under my feet is the legendary sea tomb?"
"However, in all this time on this island, I have never found any entrance to the cave, and since it is a tomb, there must be a door to enter and exit."
"So, where is this door?"
So far.
Two parts of the Ocean Tomb have been found by the Hidden Dragon and the Old Man of the Coffin, respectively.
The hidden dragon is found when it enters the island.
The old man guarding the coffin was found three months after entering the island.
The third place, the "foreign" word tablet, is the last key left!
Above the ocean, thousands of miles away.
Somewhere on an island.
An ocean expedition from the Sakura Country is landing on a brand new island.
They are formed by the samurai alliance in the Sakura Country, and the members of this expedition are all strong, and the lowest strength is the seventh rank.
When they set foot on this strange island and lifted the "foreign" monument from the ground.
That's what happened.
Six months after the Shangjing Rebellion.
Chaos in the seas is coming.
