"Wouldn't it? You're not even sure about Uncle Manjiro? Haven't you already decided that the location is on the reef and tidal flats? Why do you say that you are not even sure of 10% now? "I frowned slightly, and my worst fears had happened.
Manjiro's familiarity with this sea area is definitely above that of Lao Zhou, and it can even be said that he is the most familiar person in this sea area in the world, if even he is not sure, it will be really tricky.
"Fighting in the sea, thirty years ago, when I was only a teenager, I also went in with Zhou Sang and them, but the scale was relatively small. Over the years, I have traveled back and forth many times in search of that thing on the reefs and tidal flats, and that sea area does not look like a fight. Manjiro smashed his mouth and said after a moment of recollection.
Damn, that's not going to work, I'd better go out and find the stallions, and while it's still dark, find a high place to study the terrain and see if I can find some clues with dragon hunting.
"Uncle Manjiro, I'll go out for a while." I feel a little anxious now, and I can't completely pin my hopes of finding the entrance to the ancient tomb on the Yue family.
"Okay, the heir of the Ouyang family, remember to come back early to rest, Haidou is a completely different concept from the bucket on land, to keep it in the best condition, remember not to go out of the safe range." Manjiro said to me as he reclined down with his legs on the seat in front of Lao Zhou.
Damn, you keep me in the best shape, what do you mean by drinking so many bottles of wine? Would you like to get drunk on a rubber boat tomorrow?
Thinking about it, I nodded in response, and at the same time I gestured to Taku, who was about to get up and go with me, to sit down, and walked quickly to the door and pushed the door open.
Dajiu is tired enough to hook this time, let him take a rest, in broad daylight, within the fishing village where the Yue family is responsible for guarding, if I don't even have this self-protection ability, then I will be considered a fool during this time.
"Excuse me, have you seen those people with me?" I walked out only to find that I forgot to take the walkie-talkie, and when I was about to go back to get it, I saw two people in front of me who had seen the Yue family on the yacht in the early hours of this morning, and I didn't bother to walk back to get the walkie-talkie, so I asked directly about it.
"Back to Young Master Ouyang, we just came down from the top of the mountain, and the few people who were with you are now on it, you just need to walk along this road all the way, please remember that you must not exceed our vigilance." The two did not forget to advise.
"Okay, I know, you've worked hard, go back and rest." I said hello to them briefly and headed for the top of the mountain.
All the boathouses in Yewai Fishing Village are built on the hillside, with only a stone road winding to the top of the mountain, and the house numbers are identified by simple numbers.
It seems that this place has indeed been abandoned for a long time, only the few boat houses engraved with the mark of the Yue family are still well preserved, and the other boat houses have long been dilapidated, only the crooked door number is still faintly visible.
If you walk at the normal walking speed of an adult, it only takes about an hour to walk around the fishing village, which is not very large, and it is more of an island than a fishing village.
Therefore, I walked for another half an hour, and after several groups of two-person Yue family guards, I finally came to the top of the mountain.
I'm sure there's no road ahead, and judging from the map of the fishing village that Lao Zhou gave me when I was still in the boathouse, the gray stone-paved pavement markings disappeared where the word "mountain" was written, and only a small line was engraved on the spot where I was standing: "θ‘γζ’γΎγ", which means dead end.
Could it be that this is the so-called secret realm? I muttered inwardly, and at the same time felt inexplicably excited.
"Dean Kato, your old man has been frowning since just now, what the hell is going on?"
"Ignorance! The complexity of this sea is far beyond your imagination, and there are many places that I haven't figured out yet, how can I explain it to you in a few words? β
"Hey, how complicated is it, Kato-sensei, can't you just talk about it simply?"
As soon as I reached the top of the mountain, I heard Takashi Kato, stallions, and Nagabeak and others "discussing" fiercely.
It feels good to have a companion during the adventure, I thought as I walked through the bushes that blocked them, "Don't disturb Dean Kato's thoughts, big stallion, but tell me what you think of this place." β
Brainstorming, one of the essential qualities of a qualified tour leader.
"Haha, Ouyang, we came here to see the scenery, but specifically to create an opportunity for you to cultivate a relationship with the girl of the Yue family alone, why did you come out so quickly? Looks like you can't. What do you want to ask us think? We can only say sorry, it's not our strong point, aren't you embarrassing us. When the stallion saw me coming, he immediately laughed evilly and shouted.
"Report to Boss Ouyang! We don't have an idea here. β
"Hmm, classmate Ouyang, you're here."
"Create a chance to make a yarn, and go cool, you don't have an idea and I expected it, I heard Dean Kato say that it's complicated here? Does it refer to geographical conditions? I asked.
"If you see it, ask questions, you have to be like Ouyang, you have to make more assumptions, make more inferences, don't just know how to open your mouth to ask why, think about how to ask this why!" Takashi Kato is tireless.
"Dean Kato, what your old man said is right, then please hurry up and solve your doubts, it's almost dark this day, I didn't believe it, but after a few inverted fights, I also think Ouyang is right, I have a strange physique, it's best not to stay in a dark place, and it's the king to go back to the house as soon as possible." The stallion finally admits his mocking face.
"Hmm, classmate Ouyang, you first take a look at the terrain under this mountain." Takashi Kato said, pointing to the bottom of the mountain.
Looking at the terrain? I heard the words and looked down the mountain, this was the first time I had a bird's-eye view of the night crying fishing village.
The sun sets very fast on the seaside, and the whole night fishing village looks like a rendered and transparent watercolor painting in the reflection of the setting sun.
The continuous release of white mist between the mountains and rocks makes the fairyland-like sea background more elegant, the rows of wooden boat houses present a simple and comfortable pattern, the glazed tiles on the gable wall shine under the silver-blue sky, and the seabirds stand elegantly on the reef not far from the shore to rest.
"The scenery here is good, suitable for a yang house, but not for a yin house, so there is no need to waste energy to find the entrance to the ancient tomb with dragon hunting. But I really don't see what's complicated? I asked, confused.
"Hmm, classmate Ouyang, if I say that somewhere in this sea area, there must be the ancient tomb you are looking for, do you believe it or not?" Kato Taka is not shocking, and he is endless.
