Chapter 311: Strange Chest
In front of me, there is a piece of gold.
The faces of the three of them were also reflected in a golden color.
Xiao Ya frowned slightly, and said to Ye Ling: "Are you kings here so generous? If I were the king of that 'Yu' country, I would never allow the exiles to carry so much gold and silver treasure on their ships. β
Ye Ling didn't answer directly, but looked at the jewels all over the ground and shook his head unconsciously.
"This is indeed strange, when the countries were fighting, for the sake of military expenses, no one plundered everywhere, logically speaking, it is indeed impossible for Yuguo to let go of this ship. β
Speculation is just speculation, and the only way to answer doubts is to move on.
"You wait here for me, I'll go and see first. Ye Ling said, and stepped over the gold coin push and entered a cabin.
"It doesn't feel normal here......" he muttered to himself.
Garcia pursed her lips, and Miss Shen Tao looked up at her at this time.
The two shrugged and looked at each other helplessly.
In fact, Garcia is also a god, enough to stand alone.
Although Xiao Tao's cultivation is a little worse, her skills are unique in the world, and ordinary threats can't make it difficult for her at all.
But even so, in Ye Ling's eyes, they will always be the ones who need to be protected.
As long as they are by Ye Ling's side, Ye Ling will rush to the front.
"Come in, it's safe here!"
In the cabin, Ye Ling's call was heard.
The two of them strode into the cabin.
It was originally a room leading to the observation room, with a hatch at the front, on the left and right, and on the floor in the center.
The piled up of treasure pressed the hatch down, and it took a lot of effort for the three of them to "dig them out" from the pile of gold coins.
After checking the rooms in front and to the left and right, they didn't find anything special, still gold coins and precious stones.
These things alone can't make a martial artist, especially one of the richest men in the Hongyuan Empire, feel excited.
"Go down and see, the good things are hidden in the depths. Ye Ling said.
The trio pulled open the hatch.
The cabins below deck are much more spacious.
Here, there are not as many coins and jewels as there are in the upper room.
But near the wooden plank wall, these dozen large lacquered wood boxes are placed.
Ye Ling pulled out the seven-star sword, and the tip of the sword lightly slashed on the lock of the lacquered wooden box, and the metal lock was cut like soft mud.
The wrist was lifted up, and the lacquered wooden box was opened.
"Brother Ye, what's inside?" Xiao Tao asked curiously.
"Tsk. Ye Ling smacked his lips, looking very disappointed, "Jade figurines." β
To be precise, these are white mountain jade figurines.
Baishan jade is the purest jade in the world.
To put it mildly, the jade figurines in it, take out any one of them and put them in the Dragon Star Chamber of Commerce, they can be exchanged for tens of thousands of gold coins.
However, this thing still didn't have any attraction to Ye Ling.
He sped up and sliced open all the lacquered wooden boxes, and the disappointment was even greater.
Finally, when he opened the tenth box, Ye Ling saw that inside this box, a strong light burst out!
It's a box full of golden cicada yarn!
Golden cicada yarn, the name sounds like it is related to the golden cicada, in fact, this is a kind of gauze woven with spider silk.
The reason why Ye Ling thought it was precious was because the spider that could spit out this spider silk was now extinct in the world, and there was no way to make this kind of tulle again.
Its purpose is not just to make clothing, but to wrap around the hilt of a sword.
Different from ordinary fabrics, this kind of gold yarn made of spider silk not only has the effect of anti-slip, but also is the most ideal conductor of aura.
Ye Ling tore off the non-slip cloth on the hilt of the Seven Star Sword and replaced it with golden cicada yarn on the spot.
Holding the sword in his hand, he immediately had a feeling that he had never felt before!
This feeling is as if the Seven Star Sword is no longer just a sword, but a part of the arm, an extension of its own limbs.
Whether it is channeling one's own aura into the sword, or inhaling the aura on the sword into oneself, it becomes unimpeded and there is no loss at all!
"Today's people have the strengths of today's people, and the ancients also have the wisdom of the ancients, this golden cicada yarn, if we don't meet here, we won't need this kind of good thing. β
"Are those boxes also golden cicada yarn?" asked Shen Tao.
"I don't know, you check in and take a look, it probably won't be, the golden cicada yarn is very precious. β
With that, Shen Tao opened another box.
At this time, suddenly, a cold light appeared from the box!
"Be careful!" Ye Ling flew away and used the seven-star sword to block the cold ray.
Looks like there's a mechanism on this ship!
Xiao Tao was startled by the sudden threat on his back, but years of training allowed him to quickly stabilize his mind.
At this time, the scene is a little weird, this strange box, the lid of the box automatically opens and closes.
The chests were not treasures, nor gold or silver jewelry, but rows and rows of cold and fine teeth......
This box full of sharp teeth makes people shudder.
"Box...... The box has become a monster?" Momo exclaimed.
Ye Ling shook his head, "Not like that." β
He couldn't feel the breath of demons, and this box full of sharp teeth didn't look like a demonic thing.
With the newly modified Seven Star Sword, he swung his sword and rushed towards the box.
Whewββ
With a sword into the flesh, the box was immediately split in half by Ye Ling.
Click!
When the box shattered, a disgusting creature that collapsed like a snail without a shell slowly wriggled slowly on the ground.
"Parasitic Sea Worm ......"
Although its body was also split in half by Ye Ling, this creature could not be chopped in half, and as many clones as it was cut in half, it would give birth to as many clones.
Ye Ling burned it to ashes with the scorching sun before completely destroying it.
"It's not a treasure trap, it's some parasitic sea worms brought in from the sea, and this tomb is because it's so safe that it has become their sojourn. β
As he spoke, Ye Ling squatted down and touched the large lacquered wood box that had been split.
The wooden plank that was split by the Seven Star Sword revealed a layer of uneven stubble.
"Birch ......," he muttered to himself.
"What's the matter, Brother Ye, is there a problem with this wood?"
Ye Ling got up and said, "Although birch is anti-corrosion and moisture-proof, it is not a precious wood, it belongs to something that ordinary people can afford, and it is generally used to make coffins. β
"Don't you think there's a big contrast between the cost of this ship and the treasure on board?"
The three of them looked around.
Indeed, the ship, although huge, did not have much decoration, and the wood used can only be said to be average.
"Could it be that they deliberately made the ship ordinary and hid treasures inside, in an attempt to deceive the emperor of the U Kingdom?"
"No way, if the emperor was so easy to deceive, he would have been killed a long time ago. Ye Ling shook his head and said.
"Could it be that this ship originally had no treasure, and the treasure came from this small island, and they moved the treasure from the island into this ship?" said Garcia.
This time, Ye Ling finally nodded slightly and said, "It's possible that the emperors at that time had the habit of hoarding resources in secret places. β
At this moment, they only heard a muffled sound of "knock, knock" coming from the deepest cabin under their feet......
