Chapter Thirty-Nine: Someone Comes
Since Fang Zhongjin went to Elephant Island, he has ignored a question that has always existed. There are so many dead bodies floating outside Elephanta Island, it must have been a great battle.
Even if Jiang Dai's warm incense cake can confuse people, unless the fragrant cake can make people kill each other, it is impossible to kill so many people by relying on her and her own servants alone.
Now he followed Jiang Dai to this mysterious cave, while Ji Changan and Zheng He still stayed on the beach with the dozen or so warriors. What happened on this island, even if she pressed Jiang Dai, she wouldn't know more. Fang Zhongjin had to ask Jiang Dai to immediately point out the fastest way back to the beach.
Jiang Dai listened to Fang Zhongjin's words, and also knew that things might still be variable. She rarely showed a serious look on her face, and said with a frown: "Swimming back from the undersea tunnel is the fastest." But there were too many forks in the road, and I was desperate to take this desperate path when I was running for my life just now. And the signs along the way are just from the outside in. Now if you want to go from the inside to the outside, you have to explore slowly. If you are not good at water, I advise you not to take this path. Maybe you'll die in this underwater cave. ”
When Fang Zhongjin heard this, he didn't hesitate and walked directly towards the other end of the cave. In fact, this cave is low in the north and high in the south, and the gap between the two ends is huge. One end leads to the bottom of the sea, while the other ends open on the cliffs at the southern end of the island.
The southern wall of the mountain is as straight and steep as a wall, and the entrance to the cave is twenty feet above the sea. Jiang Dai saw that Fang Zhongjin's movements did not look like he was about to climb down, and his pupils shrank suddenly, and said urgently: "Are you crazy! If you want to jump into the sea from here, you will be crippled if you don't die!"
In fact, not only the cave, but also the entire elephant island is low in the north and high in the south. When Fang Zhongjin and they landed on the island, they walked on the beach in the north. And the place where Jiang Dai jumped into the sea is only less than two feet from the sea. But the cave went higher and higher all the way to the south, and when it reached the other side, the entrance of the cave was about twenty feet above the sea. Jumping into the sea from such a high place does have the potential to kill you.
Don't look at water as the softest thing in the world. But as the saying goes, softness can overcome rigidity. If you jump into the sea from a height of 20 feet, then the surface of the sea becomes the most powerful and fierce thing. The consequences of jumping are the same as jumping from a tall building to the ground.
Jiang Dai saw that Fang Zhongjin ignored him, and shouted at his back: "You are not from the coast, you don't know how powerful you are to jump into the sea." If you jump like this, let alone save people, you will die here!"
Fang Zhongjin actually glanced back at Jiang Dai and said, "Who told you that I am not from the coast." You can find a way to swim out slowly. If you come out, I will bring you back to Ryukyu. ”
When he had said this, he threw himself into the sea. Jiang Dai hurriedly ran to the edge of the cave and looked down. A white wave was rolling up on the sea, and Fang Zhongjin really jumped straight into the sea like this. Jiang Dai's heart suddenly seemed to be grabbed in his hands and pulled hard. When he looked closely, Fang Zhongjin had already poked his head out of the sea and was swimming in the direction of landing.
Jiang Dai's legs seemed to be out of strength, and he sat down on the ground. She was stunned for a long time, and only said to herself: "This person really likes to pretend." ”
Fang Zhongjin is not a reckless man who doesn't know life and death. But he was sure that his internal strength was strong and strong, far beyond ordinary people, enough to protect his heart. While he jumped into the sea, he had already transported his internal strength to his whole body. Rao is like this, the moment he jumped into the sea, Fang Zhongjin still felt a sharp pain all over his body, and his internal organs seemed to be disturbed by someone with a stick.
He fell to the bottom of the sea at once, hurriedly slid his hands and feet to adjust his body, and swam out desperately. The place where he fell into the water was not far from the shore, and Fang Zhongjin didn't swim far before he could set foot on the ground.
He adjusted his breath as he made his way north along the narrow strip of sand. The sand was soft and difficult to walk, and Fang Zhongjin walked forward with one foot high and one foot on the bottom. He never believed in any ghosts and gods, and he even secretly prayed in his heart at this moment, hoping that Ji Changan and the others would never have anything happen during this time.
But the closer he got to the place, the more his heart sank. Because Fang Zhongjin had already heard the noise coming from ahead. With just the dozen or so people, there would never be such a loud noise. And the voice was boiling, and it sounded like there were seventy or eighty people arguing. As I walked further, I saw several large ships parked on the floating corpses.
It was only at this moment that Fang Zhongjin breathed a sigh of relief again. It seems that this noise seems to have come from those who have just arrived on the island. However, since they had just landed on the island, most of the hundreds of floating corpses were not killed by them.
Fang Zhongjin didn't care so much, and ran forward with his breath. Finally, he saw the beach in front of him full of people. The open sand suddenly became crowded.
These people are obviously mixed up with various gangs. They were dressed in different colors, but their expressions were extremely excited, and they were so noisy that no one could hear who was talking.
And what this group of people surrounded was Ji Chang'an, who was standing on a big rock. Zheng He was also standing by his side at the moment. It's a pity that a person like him with eight faces, in the face of a group of martial artists who don't listen to you at all, it is difficult to perform after all.
I saw that Ji Chang'an's face still looked like he was looking at all beings, and he looked at everyone with his arms folded and disdainful. No matter how others shouted at him, Ji Changan couldn't get a response.
Fang Zhongjin was secretly amused when he saw this. You Ji Changan didn't bring any of your subordinates, but you put some score here. Do you know that many people are deliberately provoking when they see your disgusting appearance?
Ji Changan was also sharp-eyed, and saw Fang Zhongjin rushing towards him from a distance, but there was no demon girl who was being chased by him on the side. Only then did he yell at everyone: "I don't know who killed your brother, but that stinky boy knows." You go ask him!" He pointed at Fang Zhongjin as he spoke.
Everyone was originally arguing around him, but when Ji Changan suddenly said this, they all turned their heads and looked in the direction he was pointing. Sure enough, they saw a young man running towards them.
Immediately, a few leading figures commanded his subordinates: "Don't let go of this kid around him." Then he pushed aside everyone and walked out, all the way to Fang Zhongjin.
At the head of the pack was a middle-aged man. He looked tall and majestic, and his long face was beautifully groomed. Dressed up, he can be regarded as energetic among those who practice martial arts. When the others saw him come out, the noise gradually subsided, and it was clear that he was speaking with a lot of weight in this group.
The man came up and bowed his hand to Fang Zhongjin and asked, "This friend." Under is the Fu Long Gang's home Boming. Today, we have eighteen sects along the coast gathered here. Not for anything else, just because their respective brothers came to this island one after another, but they never returned.
Now our major gangs have exchanged messages and joined forces, only to find that these brothers have all died on the island a long time ago. Now there are only a dozen alive left, and all of them have only half a life left. Since my friend also happens to be on this island, do you know that the brothers of these many gangs along our coast have lost their lives?"
He saw that Fang Zhongjin was just a young man, and even with Ji Chang'an, it was impossible to kill so many people. Ju Boming only asked him if he knew the ins and outs, and did not think that he was a murderer.
This Ju Boming was originally the leader of the largest gang along the coast, and his kung fu was the first among the leaders of the gangs. He is a well-known figure in the coastal realm. Because of this, it is very polite for Ju Boming to say such a thing to a young man who doesn't know whether he is a friend or foe.
Fang Zhongjin was asked by Ju Boming like this, and he did not show a sincere and frightened appearance as everyone expected. Instead, he arched his hand and said to Ju Boming with a smile: "I happen to know it in the next." ”
