Chapter 18: The Statue of the Sea God

Vasari was the leader of Suez, and he led more than 200 pirates from the Caribbean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean in Africa, just to get their hands on the amazing treasure of the legend. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Now his subordinates have suffered heavy losses, only about forty people remain, the others were sunk in battle with the British when they landed on the sea, and several ships were sucked to the bottom of the sea by sea pythons, and now his subordinates are demoralized, and after a long trek finally arrived at the place where the treasure is hidden, the treasure map is remembered by him, if he doesn't say it, no one will know where the treasure is, this island is so big, it is difficult to find without a map.

The other five teams also have their own ghosts, all thinking that they can find the treasure and complete the task assigned by His Majesty, and obtaining this treasure will greatly enhance the national strength and dominate the world.

They came to the bottom of a mountain, this mountain has a huge statue, they are looking at this huge statue in amazement, the statue that can be seen from the sea, is carved from a solid basalt, up to a hundred meters, there is a lot of moss on the body, a lot of vines are entwined up to the neck, the crazy hair seems to be blown by the wind, the left hand is holding a huge flying fork, just the pole of the flying fork can not surround the two people, but it has been broken and fell to the ground, the statue has a high nose and deep eyes, and the demeanor is majestic, as if it is a certain ancient god, according to his costume, it is probably the god of the sea。

There is a huge square in front of the statue of the god of the sea, in front of which is an altar, there are a lot of black things in the altar, but now it has been planted, think about the past, the incense here should be very vigorous, I don't know how many people come here to worship, but in the end it was deserted, and it became a pile of ruins.

This is the Spanish leader Philip saying to Vasari, "Now you can tell where the treasure is hidden!

The leader of the Netherlands took out his long sword, "Say quickly, don't force us to do it!" Several other leaders also took out muskets and aimed at Vasari, Vasari can't, now he has become the target of public criticism, I am afraid that he will not be able to pass this level if he doesn't say it, so he has to say, "The treasure is near this statue, according to the map, there should be a big hole near here!"

The drawing says that there is a big hole nearby, I don't know how far it is, maybe two miles, maybe it's right in front of you, who knows!

Now the rest are some elites, the old fritters who have been in the sea for many years among the pirates, and the brave and good soldiers who have experienced the wind and waves in the navies of various countries, there are still about 70 pirates in the two teams, and the remaining 200 are sailors from the four great powers of the sea. Then everyone began to search the surroundings, with the statue as the center, and spread around, everyone did not let go of a suspicious place, and soon found the treasure, these people's hearts were pounding, very excited, they would definitely not be able to sleep tonight, and they would also look for it with torches.

The soldier and the pirate are now temporarily comrades-in-arms, and the goal is the treasure, and it is estimated that when the treasure appears, it will be a big battle, and who doesn't want to take more. These soldiers and pirates used their swords to chop down the vines and plants around the statue, and they saw a few lines carved on them, but none of these words were recognized, and they were probably some kind of disappearing words from ancient times.

The six leaders looked at each other, what does this mean, there is a question mark in everyone's heads, maybe this is a hint of the hiding place of the treasure, a few people want to break their heads and have nothing to do, called a few knowledgeable men to identify, but they can't understand it, and now everyone only blames themselves for not being educated, there is no way, only to continue to search.

Finding the dark of these people is also clueless, the passion for treasure hunting is dispelled by fatigue, one by one rubbing the sore arms and legs lying in front of the square, sighing, there is a pirate lying down, looking at the huge statue, his right hand is holding a broken fork, and the left index finger is pointing to a place, along the direction he indicated, on the cliff wall, there is a huge cave, usually shrouded in fog, can not be seen, but now by the sea breeze, the moonlight down, just saw the cave, the pirate can't help but snicker, he doesn't want to tell everyone about this discovery, want to wait for everyone to find helpless to go back, he will look for it again, when he has this wealth, it will be several times more than the king,

Just as he was happy, he accidentally touched a raised black stone, and hundreds of arrows suddenly shot out of the square from the ground, shooting him and dozens of people through at once, and he couldn't believe that his fate was so bad, and he was only so far away from wealth.

The others were so frightened that they stood up, and some of them stepped on the mechanism, and hundreds of arrows were shot from the ground, and dozens of people were wounded and killed, and the six leaders were so frightened that they quickly ordered everyone not to move, there was a mechanism nearby, especially not to touch the black protruding stones. Counting the casualties, more than 80 people died at once, and 30 people were shot through the arms or legs, sitting on the ground and screaming in pain. More than half of them were lost at once, and they haven't seen the shadow of the treasure yet.

Just as the mechanism was triggered, they didn't notice that an extremely long black figure crawled out of the huge cave and swam into the depths of the sea, its body was as long as four or five times the length of the sculpture, and if they saw it, they would scare them to death, even if they found the place where the treasure was hidden, they would not enter it.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, six leaders checked their men, another pirate leader only has about a dozen people left, but Vasari has the most, there are about thirty people, the Spanish leader Philip just arrived in the square when there were still about sixty people, now there are only about twenty people left, but it is not as good as Vasari, now there is no confidence to speak, others such as the British army, Portugal, the Netherlands add up to more than sixty people.

They had to evacuate the square and come to a slightly more open place, set up their tents, tired and hungry, and their limbs were weak, and they did not want to get up when they fell to the ground.

But God didn't give them a chance to breathe, just when they set up their tents, the sky was full of dark clouds, lightning and thunder, a rainstorm was coming, lightning was like thunder, turned into an electric snake in the sky, and thunder and lightning bombarded the statue, the strong light pierced their eyes, then a huge black shadow crawled towards the statue, wrapped around the statue, until it reached the top of its head, boom, a snow-white thick electric snake bombarded the sculpture, bombarded the sea python wrapped around its body, the sea python seemed to enjoy it very much, this electric shock as a good meal, every time it was electrified it spit out a layer of mist, its mouth was like a huge chimney, constantly spewing smoke, no wonder this island is shrouded in fog all year round, it turned out to be this sea python to blame, a few soldiers in the tent saw a lightning bolt crossing, and then saw the huge body that wrapped around the statue, frightened legs weak, thought it was a nightmare, pinched himself, it turned out to be true, quickly hugged each other, trembling, dare not look again.

After a while, the clouds cleared, and when I looked at the statue again, there was nothing left.
