Chapter Twenty-Four: What I Had to Face
Basically, I was tied up for a whole day, and I couldn't help but leave deep marks on my arms and legs. Fortunately, as the evening approached we were untied and had just eaten something, and there was another difficult problem in front of us.
The box that Yang Kai found out of nowhere, it was in a square shape, dark gray, wooden, maybe it had been a long time, there were some white and fluffy things growing on the box, and there were various different patterns on the four sides of the wooden box.
Before we could open our mouths to ask, Yang Kai suddenly handed the box to us, and said in a solemn tone: "I won't play any tricks for you, open the skylight and say something." I have said before that I, Yang Kai, am the descendant of the Great General, and the emperor supported by my ancestors is Dashun Li Zicheng."
Unexpectedly, the matter actually involved Li Zicheng, the leader of the peasant army in the late Ming Dynasty. While I was a little surprised, I gradually felt that things were beginning to become clearer.
Yang Kai saw the change in our faces, and said with some pride: "I think that back then, Li Zicheng took my ancestors and the six ancient Qiang generals under his command to sweep the entire Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately he was defeated by Wu Sangui and those traitors. Fortunately, Li Zicheng expected this day and prepared a treasure for a comeback. Now that the current situation has changed, it is up to me, Yang Kai, to accept this treasure and complete his unfinished business."
Six ancient Qiang generals? Six little clay figurines? Yang Kai spoke impassionedly, which made my mind flash, it was not Li Zicheng who hid the secret of the treasure among the six little clay figures. If so, what is the connection with this gray box?
Looking at Yang Kai's eyes, this gray box was very important to him. I took the box and saw rows of small people painted on it, and behind the little people there was a tall bronze door.
There was nothing peculiar about the wooden box at all, it was empty, and several of us looked at each other, indicating that it was the first time we had seen such a thing. A look of disappointment suddenly flashed in Yang Kai's eyes, and the whole person picked up the wooden box and walked to the side.
The night began to fill up. I don't know if today is a special day for this group of people, one by one gathered around the bonfire, singing and dancing. It didn't take long for Yang Kai, who had left, to walk back. I saw Yang Kai dressed in a strong suit, with a long lock pinned to his waist, full of domineering, after seeing us, he sneered, followed by a big hand wave, and dozens of people around him immediately surrounded him, "Give you poison, just in case, I, Yang Kai, am not the kind of insidious villain, as long as you help me find the treasure, I will immediately give you the antidote, if you try to escape, within three days, without my antidote, you will definitely die."
Four blood-red pills stood in front of our eyes, Zhang Yu glanced at Yang Kai, and said in a low voice: "I hope that Commander Yang will keep his promise", as he spoke, he swallowed the pills, and then we swallowed the pills one after another, "Okay!" As soon as the tide arrives, we will leave immediately" Yang Kai smiled busily, waving his hand at his hands, and our backpack suddenly returned to our hands.
In the middle of the night, the moon began to brighten up in the sky, and a chill came over the sky.
I, Zhang Yu, the fat man, the monkey, and Yang Kai stood on a river, waiting for the tide in Yang's mouth.
With the passage of time, there was no tide on the river as Yang Kai said, and there was not even a little movement, the fat man had already sat on the ground impatiently waiting, and even Yang Kai had a look of surprise on his face, and he muttered softly: "There is no reason!" Why hasn't the annual tide come yet, could it be that I have misremembered the time".
At this time, a strong wind suddenly erupted around.
The wind was raging, causing the leaves to roar.
The river in front of us suddenly became turbulent, like boiling water, like a mad madman rushing towards us, and we could not help but retreat as we leaned close to the river's edge.
A surprising scene began to take place. A dilapidated warship stands out from the river, saying that it is a warship because in the moonlight, the cannon on the ship can be clearly seen, and then look at its hull construction, it should be a Ming Dynasty warship.
The matter did not end there, the boat that stayed on the river began to shake rapidly, and invisibly formed a circular structure, and what was even more strange was that the boat was connected to the boat by ropes, and the boat at the very edge revolved around the center at a certain speed.
It's a lot like the circular motion we've learned in physics. If the circle of movement is m, then the circle of movement is n.
Some of Yang Kai's subordinates came running from a distance, and at some point there was a long hook in their hands, and a man with a strong figure stepped forward, picked up the hook, roared, and threw it at the warship in front of him.
The hook was like a fallen leaf in the wind, and it was quietly hung within the range of the nth, and a group of people pulled the hook one after another, and in an instant, the hook was pulled straight up.
I have to say that Yang Kai's subordinates still have some capable people.
The road had been cleared, Yang Kai pointed at Zhang Yu, and said with a solemn face: "These ships, which have been rumored since my ancestors, have strange things on them. Our goal is to get to the very center of the ship, where there will be a hole that sticks out. If you want to live, it's better not to fall into the range of m, you go up first."
Follow me! Zhang Yu whispered to me, and then ran to the rope in one step.
The wind was very loud, and even though the hook was pulled to look straight, when I went up, I experienced that the hook shook very much. I am like a flat boat in the sea, small and unreachable.
The thick rope with the hook on it made my hand hurt, and gradually a trace of blood began to spill out.
At this time, Zhang Yu climbed in front, less than a meter away from me, and the two of us were just within the range of the outer m, and at my feet happened to be the constantly moving warship.
According to what Yang Kai said, there is still some distance from the destination. My hands ached faintly, and I looked towards them, and my eyes couldn't easily see the board of the boat under my hands.
Woowoo............
Strange voices shouted, but the source of the strange sound could not be found.
The two pairs of feet hanging below were inexplicably caught by something. I jerked my foot down, only to find that there was nothing, and the downward trend continued.
Could it be that there are legendary ghosts? A cold sweat spilled out of my back, and finally I couldn't hold it anymore, and my whole body fell down. Zhang Yu, who was leaning on my side, suddenly stretched out his hand towards me, but the momentum of the fall did not change, we both fell, and when we approached the deck, because the speed of the fall was not very fast, I turned over suddenly, which was considered to be in danger.
Woowoo.........
The strange sound came again, this time I could hear it clearly, and my eyes could see it very clearly. At the bow of the ship, there is a monster of the same color as the plank, which may be the reason why I didn't notice it just now. The monster is similar to a koala, but the only difference is that the nose is very long.
I tried to wave my hand in a friendly way, and the koala echo standing in front of me called out, a hint of bad feeling permeating my body. Zhang Yu shouted, "Let's go", as he spoke, he pointed to the rope attached to the board of the boat on the side, the distance between the boats is not very large, if you climb through the rope, it should not be a big problem. I followed behind Zhang Yu, looked back, and at some point, batches of "koalas" suddenly poured out.
I jumped over the rope, and then I jumped into another boat within m range, and in terms of progress, we were faster than the fat men. It was as if they were in some trouble, and they could faintly hear the monkey's gunshots.
I thought the danger was over, but I realized that this was just the beginning.
