Chapter 217: The Age of Discovery (40)
Adam and the others were locked up in the cave, in addition to them, the crews of other trading ships were also inside, Adam didn't know how Ye Qing bought the guards to sneak in, he hurried to tell her what had happened before.
Unfortunately, Adam didn't know who the man who took Rong Sheng was.
"The man looked twenty-seven or eighteen years old, not very tall, medium build, brown curly hair, blue eyes, he should have a higher position than Alpha, and he didn't seem to care when I mentioned that Alpha took Rhodes away."
"I'll know who he is." Ye Qing wrote down the description of the man and continued: "Only Juan and I are at the hotel, everyone else is separated, you stay here for the time being, and it is not safe on Crown Island." Here are some gold coins, where they should be used, they are all used, and there is no one, and the money is useless. ”
Adam accepted the cloth bag that Ye Qing gave him: "Okay, you pay more attention to safety." ”
"Adam, at most the day after tomorrow, we can get out of here."
Ye Qing walked out of the cave and carried a soldier in charge of guarding.
From the soldiers, she learned about the Morales family.
Duke Morales was seventy-nine years old, and his first wife had long since died, leaving behind a daughter, Princess Rollai, who later married Farona, the daughter of the Luna family, and gave birth to a son, Seth.
And the man who took Rong Sheng was called Nigu, who was the illegitimate son of the duke.
In addition, Ye Qing also learned that the prison was a place for death row criminals, and before the prisoners were executed, they all needed to be tried by the duke.
Before leaving the island, Ye Qing knocked the questioning soldier unconscious and cast a small spell, and he would be unconscious for at least three days.
The prison was outside Crown Town, and Ye Qing went to the prison before going to the castle.
The port of Crown Island leads directly to Crown Town, and a wide dirt road winds to the Morales family castle, which is the Morales family estate to the east and the stone prison to the west and south.
Ye Qing didn't go back from the port, she went directly to the stone prison.
The prison is made of stone, at the top of an open hillside, surrounded by no woods, and on one side is a steep cliff with a reef and the sea below.
Outside the prison there was a hut where the soldiers guarding the prisoners lived.
There were two people in the room, one at the gate of the prison, and one in the cell at the end of the prison, who was dozing off in a chair.
Will there be jailers dozing off in prison?
Ye Qing flashed in, followed Hu Yingfeng's scent, came to a cell, and in a flash, she entered the cell.
It was dark in the cell, but she still saw them.
Hu Yingfeng and Rhodes fell asleep by the wall.
With just one glance, Ye left the prison lightly.
Because the two of them were not in prison at all, they were just phantoms inside, just like Ye Qingbu was in the hotel.
Whether it was Golden Beach or Stone Prison, Ye Qing pounced.
She had to go to the castle first, Nigu took Rongsheng back to the castle, Shi Yin and Leon also returned to the castle with Princess Luolai, and she went to the castle to find the three of them.

Also half an hour earlier, Hu Yingfeng and Rhodes had left the prison.
"Hu, you and I are really fated, we went to prison twice together."
"What kind of fate is this?"
"Okay." Rhodes laughed a little embarrassed, and he said about today's events: "We still shouldn't come to Crown Island, you've seen Duke Morales's domineering, right?" ”
"Overbearing? It is more appropriate to use shamelessness. ”
"There are about twenty of us in all, what can we do to resist in the face of their soldiers in armor and long swords? The front is at the dock, and if we resist, we will not only lose the ship and its contents, but also put everyone inside! ”
Hu Yingfeng slowed down half a step and turned his head to look at him: "Why would anyone still come to Crown Island?" ”
"Crown Island produces gold, and it is much more cost-effective to exchange materials for gold here than in other places, in fact, Duke Morales has not always acted so absurdly, doing it every few years, and other times they are normal."
More than ten minutes later, the two stopped in front of a fork in the road.
Hu Yingfeng said: "Before dawn tomorrow, we will see you here?" ”
"No problem." Rod looked at his back: "Stay safe!" ”
Hu Yingfeng didn't look back, took a piece of grass in his mouth and left.
The two decided to go their separate ways, Hu Yingfeng went to Jintan and Rhodes went to the town to contact supplies, because they couldn't leave immediately, they needed to prepare the ship, crew, and supplies properly, and then discuss leaving, so they had to return to the prison the next day to avoid some other accidents.
Rhodes had been to Crown Island before, although he had never been to the prison, according to Hu Yingfeng's direction, he still returned to Crown Town smoothly.
Crown Town is the only town on the island, like a tree, the main road in the middle is the trunk of a large tree, the trunk of the tree has many branches, is a small road, on both sides are the huts of the people, there are more than 20,000 permanent residents on Crown Island.
It was already dark, but the town was brightly lit.
Rhodes found a tavern and went to a middleman, Stewart, who he had heard many times about how he could sell maps of the Morales family's gold mines if he was willing to spend money.
Explaining his intentions, the owner of the tavern told Rhodes to wait for a while.
Rhodes glanced around, there were a few soldiers drinking in the tavern, and one of them was the one who sent Rhodes to the inn in the afternoon.
He sat down in the corner and buried his head.
The inn in the town was not far from the tavern, but he had to implement the supplies first, and then inform Ye Qing and Juan in the inn.
Rhodes didn't know what was going on on over there at Golden Beach, and he thought that as long as they got the supplies, they could find a way to leave as soon as possible.
Time passed, and Rod waited more and more anxiously, and he glanced at the door from time to time.
Just as Rod turned his head frequently, the man in the other corner stared at him for a long time.
The man picked up an axe that had been placed on the table and walked into a room in the tavern.
The man knocked on the door, got no reply, and pushed the door open.
There were two men sitting in the room, one of whom had a cross scar on his forehead.
Roger rebuked, "What's going on? Didn't know I was talking to Mr. Stewart! ”
"I'm sorry, Captain. I have something important. ”
Roger glanced at him and followed the man out of the room.
"How?"
The man pulled Roger to the outside, and through the crack in the door, he could see outside.
He pointed at Rhodes and whispered, "Commander, that man, like someone who attacked our vanguard ship!" I hadn't seen the man with my own eyes, but I thought it looked too much like the person in the portrait! ”
Roger looked at it intently and said, "Fetch Bull and let him see." ”
Bull is Roger's nephew, the boy on the lead ship.
Roger has always been worried about the attack on the vanguard, but fortunately his nephew is fine, as long as Bull is there, he will be able to recognize the person who attacked their vanguard.
"Boole is on board."
"Fool, then arrest him and wait for Bull to come out of the boat and admit him!"
