Half a month later...

"Red, red seas!"

After a three-and-a-half-month voyage.

this day.

It was just dawn.

I heard someone on the deck shouting, "Found it, found the Red Sea." ”

Jiang Xuan hurriedly pushed the window to look.

into the eyes.

When the sun shines on the sea, the surface of the sea is not dark blue or abyss-colored, but reflects pale red ripples, as if there is a gem hidden at the bottom of the sea.

"yes, this is it."

Lin Zhennan took the nautical chart, came to Jiang Xuan's side excitedly, and showed him the nautical chart: "The reason why the sea area here is pale red is because the seabed is covered with a kind of red shell, Jiang Gongzi, we have arrived near the relict island." ”

didn't wait for Jiang Xuan to answer.

The lookout on the mast waved again: "Ahead, there is an island ahead!" ”

Hear this.

Jiang Xuan boarded the mast in two steps, looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw the trace of a small island.

"Lord Lin Meng..."

Compared to the excited crowd.

Jiang Xuan thought more, and said to Lin Zhennan, who also came to the mast: "It is said that Wangshan runs a dead horse, how can this small island that appears on the sea level in front of you be twenty or thirty miles away from us, right?" ”

"More than that."

Lin Zhennan replied: "This island is actually very large, although you can see the island vaguely now, but in fact, it is at least a hundred miles away from the island. ”

Hundreds of miles!

Jiang Xuan was talking about this distance, and couldn't help but glance at the pale red sea around him: "You said before that the reason why this sea area is pale red is because the bottom of the sea is covered with red shells. ”

said.

Jiang Xuan looked up at Lin Zhennan: "When you came last time, did you send someone into the water?" ”

"Yes."

Lin Zhennan didn't hide it: "The old man didn't let us land on the island, but we were idle at sea, so we wondered why this sea area was red, so we sent a few people with good water to dive down, and finally found a lot of red shells." ”

Hear this.

Jiang Xuan thought it was incredible, you must know that there are still hundreds of miles away from the relict island, but the red shells have already extended to this side, and if it is the same in other directions around the island, this is the red shells covering a radius of hundreds of miles.

"Is there something in the shell?"

"Nope."

"All of them?"

"None of them, we fished a lot of places, but no matter where we fished from, all we caught were empty shells, and there was nothing in them."

Lin Zhennan said bluntly: "This is like a cemetery of red shells, I heard some old people at sea say that some turtles have turtle cemeteries, as long as they feel that their life is about to end, they will return to the cemetery to wait for death, I think these red shells may also have this nature, otherwise it can't be explained, why there are hundreds of miles of red shell cemeteries here." ”

Can't explain it?

Not necessarily.

Jiang Xuan looked at the red sea in front of him, although this place is located in the depths of the ocean, it should be inaccessible.

But if it was as he thought, this was the site of an ancient immortal gate, and these red shells could not be artificially thrown here.

After all.

These shells, which turn the sea red, are beautiful at first sight, but they are also delicious.

The people of the Ancient Immortal Sect raised red shells in captivity here, then ate them and threw the shells into the sea.

Day after day, year after year.

The result is a spectacle of the Red Sea.

Of course.

This is just his personal conjecture, and it is difficult to say what is going on.

"Dock."

Look at the mountains, the jungle, and the sandy beach in front of you.

Jiang Xuan instructed: "Don't go to the island without my order to avoid unnecessary trouble, understand?" ”

"Understood."

Lin Zhennan nodded again and again.

See he understood.

Jiang Xuan suddenly said again: "Lord Lin Meng, haven't you really been to the island?" ”

Lin Zhennan was stunned.

Jiang Xuan continued: "You have been the leader of the Nanwu Alliance for six or seven years, you have taken great pains to write down the route, haven't you ever wondered what is on the island?" ”

Lin Zhennan immediately shook his head.

"Don't worry, I'm just talking about it." Jiang Xuan said very easily: "If it were me, a mysterious old man made my boat and boarded a mysterious island, after I wrote down the navigation chart, I would definitely take the time to come over and take a look, otherwise I would not be able to sleep at night, as for you, I am not a gentleman, I don't know how you will choose." ”

Hear this.

Lin Zhennan smiled bitterly: "Jiang Gongzi, I really haven't been on this island. ”

"Perhaps."

Jiang Xuan didn't say anything more, but looked at the island in front of him.

The island is actually very large.

Estimate it.

It must be hundreds of square kilometers.

In other words, Macao's territorial area is 32.9 square kilometers, and the island in front of it is at least three or four times larger than Macao.

Other than that.

The island is mountainous and densely wooded.

The only regret is that there is only a green forest, but there is no trace of flying birds, which makes this small island a little more dead and silent.

Of course.

I can understand it.

The relict island is located above the deep sea, and there is no continent on the left and right.

With the flight ability of birds, it is not enough to cross such a long distance, and only on islands within 3500 miles of the continental shelf, it is possible for birds to inhabit.

"Stop..."

When there are still four or five hundred meters away from the island.

Jiang Xuan directly ordered the ship to stop, and let the Maple Leaf stop on the sea.

"Everyone stays on board, and it's forbidden to go to the island without my orders."

said.

Jiang Xuan stepped on the deck and shot towards the shore like an arrow from a string.

Stomp Tread...

Treading water all the way.

Although Jiang Xuan doesn't know how to cross the river with a reed, his Baishou Zongyun skill is not bad, especially after arriving at the Grandmaster Realm, the true qi gathers at his feet, as if he is stepping on a big net, and a few dragonflies stand on the beach of the relict island.

"Huh?"

As soon as Jiang Xuan came ashore, he had a sense of being targeted.

Delusion?

Jiang Xuan looked at the jungle on the island.

into the eyes.

There are so many shrubs in the forest that you can't see what's inside.

"Interesting!"

Jiang Xuan is also a master of art and bold.

After noticing the peeping, not only did he not flinch, but he became more and more yearning for the next trip.

"Sure enough, something is eyeing me."

Jiang Xuan strode into the jungle.

As soon as I entered, I heard the sound of trampling dead leaves in the depths of the jungle, and the feeling of being watched became more and more obvious.

But look left and right.

The East XZ that peeked at him was very secretive, and there was nothing when he looked around, but he found a stone tablet.

"Yuan Ling..."

Jiang Xuan recognized the handwriting on the stone tablet, because it was too old, the handwriting on it was already very blurry, and it took a while to determine that the third one was a shell character.

"Yuan Lingbei..."

Shell what?

The fourth word was really unrecognizable, and Jiang Xuan could only guess and read: "Beichang?" ”

Hiss!

If it's Yuanling Shell Field.

It shows that this relic island is not the site of the Ancient Immortal Sect, at best it is just a resource point.

Look behind the stele again.

There are also two words on the back, which are combined to read: "Kong Ming!! ”

What do you mean?

Empty Ming Sect?

Yuanling shell field?

That's what it means.

Jiang Xuan looked nearby again, but there were no other stone tablets.

"Huh?"

Jiang Xuan was about to continue searching.

Suddenly, a black figure resembling an ape flashed over the tree in the northeast corner.
