Chapter 20: The Jade of the Sea Soul

Legend has it that hidden beneath the sea level in the South Pacific lies a mysterious island made up of the purest sapphires, which only the bravest navigators can discover.

In the middle of winter in the 16th century, the weather was so cold that even the River Thames froze. The Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets have grown massively and sea levels have fallen. One called Keane? The pirates of Floret stumbled upon the island and landed on it. According to the pirate accomplices, Keane? Frollet removed three huge sapphires from the island, the largest of which weighed six hundred kilograms.

Keane? After his arrest, Frolley refused to give an account of the location of his treasure. Before he was hanged, he left his famous last words: "If you want my treasure, go and get it!" ”

Those three huge sapphires are the so-called Sea Soul Jade.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the eighteenth century. At that time, a grocer in England had obtained a treasure map through a trade, and according to the seller, it was Keane? Florai's treasure map. The image shows the pirate's skull emblem, as well as some mysterious symbols. The map shows a river, and the grocer travels north and south and quickly recognizes this as a section of the Thames. The river is fast, and there are boulders on both sides of the riverbank. In the middle of the river, there is a small island of less than 300 square meters. There is only one oak tree growing on the island.

According to the treasure map, dotted lines are drawn at an angle along the banks of the river, and the intersection is located somewhere on the island - where Keane is buried? Florai's treasure. The grocer had a dream of making a fortune, and he bought a sextant for sailing - this was used to draw dotted lines, which were usually used by navigators to find their routes.

In short, this one is called Levin? Hughes's grocer arrived on the island with a few of his men, and they were digging not far from the oak tree, where they had measured the hidden treasure. After digging about ten feet down, the hole that had been dug out began to flood. But they found a Spanish gold coin in the mud, as well as a sapphire shard about five millimeters in size, which was very pure in color. Now, Levenhughes believes he's hit the nail on the head, but if he wants to dig further, he'll need more investment – including pumping equipment, more manpower, and so on.

He went ashore with his men and looked around for merchants to invest in his treasure hunt. Ten days later, a company decided to fund his search for the treasure.

He returned to the island with pumping equipment, more supplies and manpower, only to find that the island, which had been so desolate that no birds lay eggs, was now bustling with people. The island is now densely populated with hundreds of excavated caves - his buddy has drunk and leaked his plans to dig for treasure, as well as some in his search for investment.

Levin? Hughes could no longer find the cave he had dug out, and he was caught up in one lawsuit after another.

The treasure digging on that island lasted about fifty years, and the money invested may have been much more than Keane? Florai's treasure is gone. None of the companies found the treasure, because all the diggers had to face the raging river as soon as they dug below the level of the river - and the appearance of the island had been changed beyond recognition by the digging for treasure, and there was no way to determine the location of the treasure even if there was a correct treasure map.

Levin? Hughes eventually died destitute, and after his death, the Spanish gold coin and sapphire fragments fell into the museum. It is said that the color of the jade of the sea soul is exactly the same as that of the sea, and when you wear a piece of the jade of the sea soul, it is like wearing a small piece of the sea.

According to the occult, all precious objects imply a curse. The Jade of the Sea Soul has caused countless people to fight endlessly, dozens of companies have gone bankrupt and collapsed, and its curse is called greed.

The French swordsman François gracefully lifted the pendant of the Sea Soul Jade, Ren Qiuling blushed, lowered her head, and let François hang the Sea Soul Jade on her neck. The pure sapphire hung lightly to her chest, reflecting the light of the sky like the sparkling sea.

"You're so beautiful." François exclaimed.

Ren Qiuling raised the Sea Soul Jade and looked at it, saying, "I believe it is beautiful, but unfortunately in my eyes, it is gray." ”

François sighed: "The loss of colour is not necessarily a bad thing – we will see you tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning." He turned and walked over to the light from the flying saucer, and his accomplices had already walked to the light waiting for him.

Villagers emerge from their classrooms.

I don't know what kind of psychology it is, Ren Qiuling put the Sea Soul Jade into the collar and let it stick to her skin. Maybe it's better not to let the villagers see the Jade of the Sea Soul, after seeing too many crimes, Ren Qiuling has little confidence in human nature.

Ren Qiuling turned her head with a smile, she wanted to say some comforting words to the villagers, but she was stunned for a moment.

On the roof of the teaching building, there stood a lonely man in a wolfskin coat. Wolf skin is extremely warm, and usually one wolf skin coat can be topped with two sheepskin coats. It's only autumn now, the weather is just slightly cool, and the guy who can't tell the difference between spring, summer, autumn and winter is naturally Zou Yan.

It turned out that the sudden change in attitude of the enemy's ability was not because of Ren Qiuling, but because Zou Yan came.

Zou Yan jumped from the roof of the building and made a "empty" sound when he landed. Ren Qiuling smiled, she knew that this Zou Yan in front of her was just a clone.

Zou Yan's doppelganger technique is extremely poor, and he can only use bamboo to create a stupid doppelganger, which is useless except for deceiving people.

But this time, it's really thanks to the bamboo clone. Ren Qiuling rushed over, hugged the bamboo clone and began to gnaw - it has done a great job.

Zou Yan's bamboo clone didn't seem to know how to react, and raised his hand blankly, as if he wanted to push Ren Qiuling away, and as if he wanted to hug Ren Qiuling. In the end, he just raised his hand and didn't move.

Finally, Ren Qiuling let go of the bamboo clone with a smile.

"I heard it all, tomorrow you have to fight a foreign swordsman." The bamboo clone said, "Go back to Kui Xinglou and start training!" ”

Ren Qiuling laughed, looked back and saw that the foreigners had already left in a flying saucer, and then said: "Foreigners are all elm heads, who wants to duel with him?" I'm delaying the war! If you can't beat it, let's run, let's take everyone out of Xinmen Village first, and then gather cultivators and supernatural people to fight these guys. I won't fight a battle if I'm not sure! Because she saw Zou Yan, she chattered non-stop.

The bamboo clone sighed and said, "I'm a smart idiot. Ren Qiuling opened her mouth wide and looked at the bamboo clone.

The bamboo clone said seriously: "This doppelganger is indeed Zou Yan's, and the spell is also performed by him. But the person who controls this doppelganger now is me. ”

Hui Idiot used the King Kong body to carry the attack of the flying saucer, and he was burned to the point that only a bald head remained. He temporarily borrowed Zou Yan's body and mana to repair his body with spells. But seeing that Ren Qiuling was captured, he also had a long conflict, if Zou Yan was allowed to regain control of his body, the spell of the transformation pool might fail, and he might die.

He is a high-ranking monk, but deep down he is also a little selfish.

After a long time, he finally came up with a method, which was to discuss with Zou Yan in advance how to save Ren Qiuling, and then let Zou Yan regain control of his body for a few seconds.

As soon as Zou Yan woke up, he immediately cast the magic of the bamboo clone, creating a clone that could be completely fake. He had dealt with the foreign terrorists and knew that they were very afraid of him. After leaving Ren Qiuling last time, he went to Siberia, where he searched for his old enemy, Moncru. Unexpectedly, he fought with the terrorists and snatched most of the Chain of Doom from them, while the adventurer he saved gave him a wolfskin coat.

Zou Yan knew that the chain of doom was very terrifying, and he didn't even dare to touch this thing with his hands, it was always wrapped in a handkerchief. So after returning to Binjiang, he found Ling Luo, the junior of the old year, and gave her the Chain of Doom.

Unexpectedly, this chain finally brought bad luck to Ren Qiuling.

"Take the wounded," said the bamboo clone, "and send them to the lotus pond on the top of the Kuixing Tower—one sheep will be herded anyway, and two sheep will be herded." Let them soak in the lotus pond, this is the only way I can heal their wounds. ”

The villagers applauded, in short, with the help of these masters, their lives can be lived longer, of course they are willing to help the masters.

"You go to the lounge on the second floor of the Kuixing Building, and I will teach you something when the time comes, so that you can prepare for tomorrow's decisive battle." The bamboo clone said to Ren Qiuling.

Ren Qiuling shouted anxiously: "Hey, the duel is fake!" I lied to foreigners! ”

The bamboo clone shook his head and said, "If you give up, I will die, Lu Ting will die, Li Mingbo will die, and Yun Zhongyue will die." The only one who can survive is Zou Yan. Allowing you to participate in a duel is to buy everyone time to heal. If you fight for one more minute, we will have a better chance of surviving. But if you want to give up, I still don't blame you. ”

Ren Qiuling always thought that the situation was very optimistic, and never expected that things would be so serious.

The wisdom idiot borrowed the spell of the Pure Land Lotus Pond, which is actually the pool view in the Sixteen Views of the Pure Sect. When the lotus pond descends on the world, it can indeed live the flesh and bones of the dead, and the healing effect is even far beyond Zou Yan's Gu technique. However, the principle of this spell is to borrow the water temperature of the Pure Land Lotus Pond to nourish the body, and the effect is extremely slow.

The door of the lounge on the second floor of Kuixing Building was closed, and the village girl who led Ren Qiuling here gently pushed the door open, and then bowed and retreated. As soon as the door opened, I heard a Sanskrit chanting, and the voice seemed to be very joyful.

Sanskrit was beating in the room, like flashing elves. It can be seen that Hui Idiot has carefully arranged this place.

Ren Qiuling's eyes were beating with Sanskrit, and for a while, her childlike heart was so big that she forgot what she was here for. She cautiously walked towards a Sanskrit, and the other Sanskrit words floated silently, but this Sanskrit floated quietly, jumping and jumping, as if a little nervous.

Ren Qiuling stretched out her finger and lightly touched the Sanskrit text. Sanskrit screamed: "Damm!" "Shattered into fluorescent light scattered all over the ground.

On the innermost wall of the lounge, a pair of eyes suddenly opened. It was the eyes of the idiot, the eyes of his anger, "Can't you—" The eyes rolled upward, as if wondering what word to use, "Lady?" His eyes glared at Ren Qiuling again, showing a righteous and awe-inspiring look.

Ren Qiuling hurriedly clasped her hands together, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" ”

Hui Idiot closed his eyes, and then the voice still came from the wall: "I will use his heart to transmit the thoughts of several people to this room." Their ontology is still maintaining the lotus pond, but they can still teach you. "He has a magical power of Buddhism, and it is said that people with this kind of magical power can see through the thoughts of others, much like mind reading. But in the hands of a master like Hui Idiot, he can actually let several people's thoughts communicate with each other like a video conference, which is really admirable.
