Chapter 39: Mysterious Treasure Trove Emerges and Saves People from Prison

I heard that a few glasses were missing, and I asked what was going on, didn't I say everything was fine last time? Xiao Fan told me about some of the things that happened after that, and I finally understood.

Glasses, Mitsui and Chiyoko also went to Evil Ghost Island immediately after we left, and sure enough, they found the underground palace where Taiji Yin Jue was hidden, as shown in the silk painting. Since the fierce beast Oni was no longer there, the three of them got the jade jue without encountering any danger.

It happened on the way back. According to the later call, I don't know why, that day, the originally calm sea, suddenly blew a huge wind and waves, so that their ship ran aground, but fortunately a large cargo ship rescued them. But after that, they lost contact with glasses.

"All three of them have special locators hidden on them, which are difficult for others to find, and the locators show that they are on an island in the South China Sea." Xiao Fan continued.

"In that case, did you send someone to find it?" I said with some puzzlement.

Xiao Fan hesitated on the phone, "This island, this island, is a little different, it seems to move." ”

"The South China Sea, the island that moves. It can't be that island, right? I heard something wrong and guessed, "Nameless 138 Island? ”

"Yes, it's the ghost island." Xiao Fan replied affirmatively.

The South China Sea, one of the three marginal seas of China, is located in the southern part of the land and is the western part of the Pacific Ocean. There are countless anecdotes about the South China Sea, the most famous of which is the "Nanhai Guiru", which is said to be the location of the legendary eye of the sea, and it is also said that it is actually a huge blue hole. And this time, we're talking about another famous trick, Ghost Island.

The story goes back to the thirties of the last century, when a French research ship discovered a small island in the South China Sea that had never been seen before, and the island mysteriously disappeared half a month later. Amazingly, the island was rediscovered three months later in the sea fifty kilometers away. Since then, many people have witnessed this spectacle, and the name of Ghost Island has spread far and wide.

"Looks like there's an article in there." I said to Xiao Fan. I looked at Beichen, who had not yet woken up, and fell into deep thought.

Xia Yufang saw my worries, "You can go back with confidence, I promise to heal him." When he wakes up, let him contact you right away. ”

I looked at Beichen Yinan again, "You are awake, you must tell me immediately." Then he turned his head and said, "I'm sorry for you." Xia Yufang smiled and nodded.

I contacted Xiaofan again and agreed to go to sea together in two days to find them with glasses, so that she could make some necessary preparations in advance, and then try to contact them with glasses to see if there was a response.

Two days later, Xiaofan and I met at the pier and went straight to sea. Xiaofan asked about Beichen's situation, and I reasoned that he had other things to do, and he would meet us later. I'm afraid that she has doubts, and she will ask about Beichen, so I directly diverted the topic and asked about their situation, "Xiaofan, what is their situation now?" ”

"According to the locator, they are still in the South China Sea, in this position." Xiao Fan pointed to the red dot on the screen and said.

I looked at the flickering points of light, "This location, is it the center of the South China Sea?" "I wondered.

"Aerial photography shows that three days ago, a small island suddenly popped up in this location, I think it was Ghost Island." Xiao Fan said affirmatively.

"Without further ado, let's get over there first." I patted the side of the boat and said, "When it's time to call me, I'll rest first, and I've been on the road for days, and I haven't slept very seriously." ”

I was closing my eyes and recuperating, when I suddenly woke up. Xiao Fan touched my hand and said with concern: "Brother Long, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine. What, arrived? I touched the sweat on my forehead and asked.

"It's here. Seeing that you are tired, I let you rest for a while. As she spoke, she pointed to a small island lined with rocks in front of her. This is a veritable small island, judging from the results taken by the drone, the island is about 300 meters long, about 100 meters wide at the widest point, and the whole is oval. The island is bare, with no vegetation or any traces of artificiality.

I was a little puzzled, and the guard of the Zhang family who was operating the drone shouted: "Master Long, eldest lady, look, there seems to be a hole here." "When we looked closely, we found that there was indeed a small hole for one person in a very hidden place, half submerged under water.

"This hole was dug later, it seems that there is something else on this island." I muttered, "Xiaofan, prepare for the water, let's go in and have a look." ”

Xiao Fan and I entered the cave in turn, swam about 50 meters, the water level dropped, and a reef appeared in front of us. What is strange is that there is a copper door about five meters high, and the copper door is rusty, apparently old.

I touched the pattern of the bronze door, looked at the giant beast on the door that looked like an enlarged version of the panda, and said, "This is really strange, how can such a long old door carve a panda on it?" ”

"Brother Long, this doesn't seem to be a panda, it's a tie." Xiao Fan looked at it carefully again, thought about it and said.

"Iron? Sanmiao's ancestor Chi You's mount Tie? I wondered. Surveyed the bronze door again, and at the top of the door, there were several ancient characters, "Xiaofan, come and see, what is this written?" ”

Xiao Fan glanced at it a few times, "This is like a hieroglyph of insects and birds in ancient times, I can't see it clearly, and I can't make it out." But I think this door must have been opened recently. ”

"Yes, there are still some traces of patina falling on the ground, and the mechanism is here." I pressed hard into one of the beast's eyes, and the bronze door "rumbled" open.

Behind the bronze gate is a large hall, the architectural style is strange, not like the general Central Plains Han palace appearance. There are copper pillars around the main hall, and the pillars are carved with ghosts and ghosts, and fierce beasts. There is a humanoid statue in front of the main hall, about three meters high, with a face like a cow's head, with two wings on its back, holding a long sword engraved with runes, and there are four stone tablets on the left and right of the statue.

"Brother Long, this is the treasure trove of the soldier master Chiyou." After looking at the portrait and the stone tablet, Xiao Fan deduced, "This is the stone statue of Chiyou, and the engravings on these four tablets should say that Chiyou was defeated by the Yellow Emperor, and his subordinates kept weapons and treasures on a moving island." ”

"The island is getting more and more interesting, and it looks like we're a little late. Judging from the marks on the ground, someone came a long time ago and took something with them, and I think it must be treasure. I replied.

"Hahahaha, not bad at all." There was a burst of laughter from behind the statue, followed by a huge iron cage falling from the sky, trapping us inside. I took out the Moyu Tianjun Knife and slashed hard, the sound of "ding bell" was accompanied by a burst of sparks, and the iron cage was unscathed, and I looked behind the stone statue in some surprise.

At this moment, a masked man wearing a traditional yellow robe with a black bull's head embroidered on the left chest of the robe came out. "There's no need to waste your efforts, this is made of a special substance inside the ancient volcano, and it is difficult to cut it even if there are divine weapons." The man in the yellow shirt said proudly.

"Who the hell are you?" I asked, staring at him.

"You don't have to know this, you just need to know that now you are my prisoners." The yellow-shirted man replied with a squint.

"And what do you want?" I asked again.

"I don't want to do anything. You've been looking for clues to the Three Kings Sword and trying to unlock the secrets, right? The man in the yellow shirt asked rhetorically.

"How do you know, who told you?" I was slightly surprised.

"I know a lot more than you think. How about it, can you talk about it? The man in the yellow shirt asked again.

I was a little angry, "It's okay to talk, let us go first, I don't have the habit of being locked in a cage and talking to people." ”

"You can't deal with it, I can't let you out for the time being. But as a sign of sincerity, I can let you meet some of your old friends. With that, the cage that held us began to sink like an elevator, and soon, we saw the glasses of them.

"You talk about the old days first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." The man in the yellow shirt turned around and left.

Seeing that they were okay with the glasses, I was relieved and hurriedly asked about the situation during this time. It turned out that the big wind and waves encountered by the glasses others were also the ghosts of these people, and the purpose was to save the glasses and others on their own boats. As soon as they got on the boat, they smelled a strange fragrance, and all three of them fainted, and when they woke up, they found that they had been imprisoned in this cage. Everything on his body, including Tai Chi Yin Jue, was gone.

I asked the glasses if I knew the origin of the man in the yellow shirt, and he said that this person was very mysterious, every time he came, he was either masked or masked, and he never showed his true face, and he failed to succeed in several clichΓ©s. However, one thing should be certain, and that is that they should have a certain connection with Chiyou.

Xiao Fan and I also agree on this, from the fact that this is the treasure hiding place of Chi You's subordinates, and the people in the yellow shirt are so familiar with this place can draw this conclusion. It's just that what is the purpose of their arrest of us, from the conversation with the yellow-shirted man just now, we can know that we know very much about our search for the Three Kings Sword, as if they are right next to us, all these things are very puzzling.

The next day, the yellow-shirted man came again, along with a blue-shirted man. "You guys had a good night, can we talk?" The man in yellow asked.

"Let's get straight, what do you want?" I stopped tempting and went straight back.

"Okay, that's what it's like to talk. We will not hinder you from finding the Three Kings Sword, please rest assured. In exchange, we need you to find what we need within a certain period of time, how, fair and reasonable. The man in the yellow shirt said the conditions.

"If I'm not mistaken, with your means, it shouldn't be difficult to find something, why do you want us to find it for you?" I hesitated.

The man in the yellow shirt sighed, "Yes, ordinary things are naturally not a problem. But these things can only be obtained by you, to be precise, only by you. No need to ask again, I can only say so much, promise or not? ”

I looked at our situation, at the moment I am a fish and a knife, and it is difficult to have a result if I don't agree, and it is the best policy to go out first. "Okay, deal. Now you can let us out. ”

"Yes. But as a sign of your sincerity, you and this girl can go out first and find the first thing for us. When found, I promise your friend to go back safely and return everything with them. The man in the yellow shirt was still a little uneasy, and threw a drawing over after speaking.

I was about to have a seizure, and my glasses and Xiaofan pulled my clothes at the same time, so I had to endure it for the time being. I picked up the drawing and saw that it was a small island with an ancient tower standing at each end of the island.

I looked up sharply, "Lonely Island Twin Towers!" ”
