After dinner, the sun was about to set. They sat around the fire, singing and laughing. The time after dinner is often the most joyful time of their boring journey. Zhao Di always uses this time to teach her children the truth of dealing with others like a gentle mother.

Sometimes, Zhao Di will also use this time to discuss with the children about the problems in the acrobatic performance, or determine where to stop at the next stop, where to set up the stage to perform, and let them take turns to talk about the experience of the performance.

At the end of this symposium, Xu Dong played the guitar and led everyone to sing together. "Good night, Sister Zhaodi!"

"Good night, my little ones!"

After the children said goodbye to Sister Zhaodi in turn, they went back to bed and went to sleep.

The night falls silently, and the fresh smell of seaweed fills the air. The rhythmic sound of waves could be heard in the distance, and in a short time the children were lured into a wonderful dreamland.

Although Zhao Di closed her eyelids, she couldn't sleep no matter what. There are countless things that worry her, the mystery of gold coins, Meishan......

Suddenly, the one-eyed old mare neighed a few times in pain, could it be that there were too many mosquitoes and flies?

Finally, the sky dawned. Zhao Di said to Xu Dong:

"I'm going to the front of the peninsula, you're waiting for me in this place!" "I'll go too!"

"No, you can't. You are the leader of the group, and until I return, you must take full responsibility for their lives, daily life, safety, etc., and you must not let them run away. If something happens, then you shoot me, report to me, and I'll rush back. ”

As she spoke, Zhao Di handed the empty cannonball gun used for the circus performance to Xu Dong.

"I see, don't worry!" Xu Dong said.

Zhao Di entered a small inn next to the beach. It was originally a farmer's home, but when the farmer died, his widow slightly converted the inn and rented it out to tourists at a low price.

"Auntie, could you please tell me how to get to the tip of the peninsula?"

"Huh? You're going to that place too?"

The fat proprietress asked with wide eyes.

"So, does it seem like anyone else is going to that place?"

"People go there every year! I really don't know what they're going to do there? There are only big piles of rocks in there, and there is really no scenery to see. ”

Zhao Di was taken aback. In addition to myself, there are people who go to that place, and they go there once a year...... Could it be that the man also knew that the front end of the peninsula was the site of a mansion? Every year people visit that ruin, is it the same person who goes? Why did he go there? What was his purpose in going to that place?

Maybe that person also learned about the mystery of the gold coins!

If this is the case, that person should also understand the mystery of the gold coin. Also, at noon today, will he still go?

"Auntie, did that person go today?"

"Hmmm! That's natural, and it's two people who go! ”

"Did you go together?"

"No, it's going its own way, and the time is different. Those two seemed to be newcomers, so they asked me for directions, and there were two or three others who would come every year.

"They come here every year and are very familiar with the roads, so there's a good chance they'll go quietly."

So that's four to five people going there. Who are they? What's the origin? Do you know the mystery of gold coins?

Thinking of this, Zhao Di was a little more careful.

She thought to herself: "There must be one of them who is Wang Qiang, who stole my father's gold coin and found the words on it, so he came here......

So, what is the origin of the rest of them? Now that they know the mystery of the gold coin, they must have also been given a piece of gold! And by what means did they get it?"

Zhao Di felt panicked, as if a secret opponent hiding in the shadows was blocking the way. Fortunately, she is a brave and fearless girl.

"Auntie, please show me the way!"

"Are you going to go to that place too? It was terrible, there were almost no roads walked, only a narrow and steep path that was also unwalked and rarely visited. The front of the peninsula is full of rocks and cliffs, which is terrifying.

"I've never been to that place before, but my husband did. He heard rumors about the site of an old mansion there, so he went to that place to look for treasure. When he returned, he told me that the place was desolate and sparsely populated. Although the ruins of the old mansion are still there, not to mention the treasure, not even a glass ball can be found. He hadn't been there since that treasure hunt. ”

The proprietress of the inn took off the dentures in her mouth, wiped them with her cuffs, and stared at the young girl Zhaodi with a smile.

"I'm going to go anyway."

"Really? Then you have to be careful and be careful, there are almost no roads to go there. When the tide rises, the sea water rushes up to the island and floods the site of the old house, forming a new island. If you are stranded on that island, you will have to wait until the tide goes out. So, you must always remember to return before the tide rises. ”

"Thank you so much, Auntie. I'll be careful myself! ”

The innkeeper's words were true, it was a winding and bumpy path. But Zhao Di was used to walking on a tightrope, so she didn't care at all.

This narrow, slender peninsula stretches out to sea and has only one path to walk. It zigzags between the rocks and disappears, and tall trees grow on both sides of the path.

After a short while, we arrived at a relatively gentle place. The rocks are covered with thorns and bushes. When you walk there, you can see two stone pillars that have collapsed.

"Wow! This was originally the gate of the house. ”

On either side of the pillar were collapsed stone walls, covered with clumps of grass and vines, and occasionally a white stone was exposed.

The area is rich in water and grass, with interlaced branches and leaves, quiet and quiet, and so elegant that there is not even the sound of birds chirping on the branches.

The sea is also silent. The azure waves slowly surged up the sand, crashing into the cracks in the stones, making a faint noise.

Zhao Di stopped and looked around, listening attentively. The innkeeper told her that three or two people had come to the island, but there was no movement on the island, and there was no half of it in sight. Why is that? It's so weird!

Zhao Di pricked up her ears and listened. Gradually, I felt a panic creeping over me that I couldn't put into words, as if I had been left alone on an isolated island.

The man mentioned by the innkeeper may appear at any time and anywhere. Zhao Di's nerves all tensed up, and she seriously probed the situation around her, and groped forward step by step. From time to time, the branches of the dwarf tree touched her head, and her feet were full of rocks and old roots, and Zhao Di almost stumbled and fell several times.
