Infinite Two-dimensional Chaos

Chapter 524: Treasure Hunt

Li Tianyu didn't dare to imagine what it would be like after being pulled down to the surface of the sea, he was reluctant to try anyway. After the attack passed, the crew on the ship was still a little frightened, but everyone seemed to have no passion for this trip to sea. Everyone retired and wanted to give up the journey ashore.

Although everyone didn't say that at the time, Li Tianyu could already tell from their expressions.

Of course, he will not take care of these crew members. For him, the crew members are just NPCs. His sense of substitution is weak. Sometimes, although his sense of experience becomes worse, it sometimes allows him to look at it independently from the entire framework. problem.

Judging from the current situation, they are afraid that they will go through the legends on the sea, but as long as it is not natural disasters such as tsunamis and storms, Li Tianyu is basically not particularly worried. Any monster in the legend is terrible at first glance. Yes, but in fact, it is easier to deal with in terms of the player's ability.

Thinking about it now, the immediate requirement of the mission should be to protect this ship.

Slowly, everyone recovered from the attack, driving the boat to move on, but some people were still immersed in the attack just now. After all, for ordinary people, a monster like Kraken is really hard to imagine.

Li Tianyu also felt that such a huge monster was terrible. He felt a little hairy when he thought of that kind of thing in the waters under his feet, but calmed down and thought about it. In fact, they only saw Kraken’s tentacles, not the whole picture. , It's okay to think so. It's just that, now the key is not his thoughts, but the crew's thoughts.

"George," Li Tianyu came to George and lowered his voice: "I know that this attack may make everyone a little uneasy, but I believe you have also seen our abilities. The four of us have mastered the mysterious magic and must protect this. The safety of the ship is completely okay, so everyone does not have to worry about it. However, just in case..."

As he said, Li Tianyu took out a bag of gold coins: "There are two hundred gold coins here, which is considered an extra cost. If the crew members are too dissatisfied, use these two hundred gold coins to appease their emotions. Count the ones that I promised you. Five hundred gold coins, a total of seven hundred gold coins. At this price, I think it is worth it even if there is a certain risk, right?"

George was silent for a moment, but still took the bag of gold coins, and sighed: "Oh, I should have thought of it. The large number of fish shows that something is driving them in the deep ocean. According to legend, if the accordion music is too cheerful, It turns out that it will attract sea monsters... Don't worry, it's already here. We will definitely continue this journey."

With the extra reward of two hundred gold coins, the crew's will became firmer and the journey continued.

But in spite of this, this was only the second day they went to sea. They encountered islands, storms and sea monsters. After that, did they have to? I'm afraid that there will be no peaceful days on this sea.

And Li Tianyu felt that the most difficult place might not have arrived yet.

But after the visit of Kraken today, there was nothing else for the whole day, and the appearance of Kraken was also beneficial. There were so many fish on the sea, and it was easy to catch a few very large tuna.

However, the mood of the crew is still not particularly high, and Li Tianyu can't blame them.

"It would be great if it could be used to make minced tuna bibimbap." Zheng Nanxing sighed as he tasted the tuna sashimi. "All you need is a little white rice, a little cooked tuna meat and a little mayonnaise. It will be delicious."

"That's too wasteful, this is fresh freshly caught tuna!" Liu Zihao said solemnly, "Sashimi is the best way to taste such fresh fish! Some soy sauce and wasabi... ...Tsk tusk tusk."

"Tianyu, which way do you prefer?" Shen Yan turned to Li Tianyu and asked. Li Tianyu raised his eyebrows and then smiled: "Of course it's tuna sandwiches. Eggs, lettuce, tuna fish, Thousand Island sauce, it must be very great."

"I'm good at making sandwiches. I'll make them for you later." Shen Yan said with a smile. Li Tianyu nodded with a smile. The four of them were not affected by Kraken's attack at all. Instead, they were immersed in the delicious tuna. Cooking.

The second day at sea can be considered as spent, these two days are really not peaceful, so the crew on board are also panic. But it cannot be denied that the weather on the second day was very good. They still went a long way, so when the third day dawned, after they went forward for a while, another island appeared in front of them. The area of ​​this island is quite large.

Li Tianyu used his heart net to perceive that the diameter of the island is about five kilometers, and the ecology on the island is relatively complicated. Some animals such as seabirds and wild goats can be seen, and there are even traces of humans.

"Look." George pointed to the weathered bonfire in front of him. It seemed to have been extinguished for several years. If George hadn't pointed it out, Li Tianyu would have thought it was a stone with a strange pattern. George explained: "There should have been humans here, and there are traces of human life in that cave."

"Captain! Look!" At this time, a crew member raised his half-rusted scimitar and said excitedly.

"Oh?! It looks like the visitors on this island used to be pirates." George smiled with interest.

Li Tianyu originally thought George was joking and casually said, but then they searched in the cave, and they actually found a dry bone. The clothes on the dry bone had been very badly weathered, and it should have been dead for decades.

"Did you see it? There is a cut mark on the bone here." George observed the dry bone carefully and pointed to the position of his chest. "The knife pierced in from here and then pierced out from behind. It didn't hurt the vitals, but the thorn He broke his lungs. I don’t think he died immediately, but he lingered on this island for a few days before he died. He was still holding this stuff before he died..."

With that said, George broke open a wine bottle in the hand of the withered bone, and there was a note in it.

"Oh! It's a treasure map!" Liu Zihao opened the bottle cap and looked at the note with an excited smile, and then read: "Follow the footsteps of the sun, move one hundred and seventy-eight steps, and look for the dead bones of the fool. There are instructions for the next step under your feet."

"The footsteps of the sun! Walk around!" At that time, the crew became excited and rushed towards the sun. Li Tianyu rolled his eyes suddenly, and he didn't know if these crew members were stupid because they were NPCs or were they really so stupid.

"It's definitely impossible for the sun's footsteps to follow the sun. The sun is constantly moving." Liu Zihao frowned, "It should be east, you idiots."

"You're a **** pig too." Li Tianyu said out of breath, "What is the footsteps of the sun? The east rises and the west falls, from east to west, so follow the sun's footsteps to go west!"

"I know, I'm testing you!" Liu Zihao said solemnly. Li Tianyu confessed that he was too lazy to argue, and led everyone to the west. They counted as they walked, and walked one hundred and seventy-eight steps, but after arriving at the place Nothing.

"It's one hundred and seventy-eight steps, shouldn't you count it wrong halfway?" Li Tianyu frowned.

At this time Zheng Nanxing spoke: "I think there is a mystery here, right?"

"Don't talk about the machine." Li Tianyu pinched her little cheek, but Zheng Nanxing didn't care, and continued: "Then we know that it is actually one hundred and seventy-eight'feet'. Feet can be used for Refers to the number of steps, which can also be used to refer to the unit of feet. Because the living conditions of people in ancient times were not as good as those of today's people, and the average height was relatively short, so modern people's steps are much larger than the previous people. Take one. The distance of one hundred and seventy-eight steps is much farther than the previous people."

With that, Zheng Nanxing approached Li Tianyu and looked at the map: "Besides, there is no starting point mentioned in this prompt, but it should not be where the corpse is located. I think the real starting point should be the easternmost part of the island. "

"So follow the footsteps of the sun? It makes sense." Li Tianyu nodded, "Go, go on!"

"Oh!" everyone replied, eagerly rushing to the far east of the island. Li Tianyu found that these crew members were now swept away, and those who were looking for the treasures had no idea how hard they could be, and suddenly had an idea. But now he didn't say, but first silently led the crew to the easternmost side of the island, and then began to move forward at a length of about 30 centimeters.

After one hundred and seventy-eight steps, they came to the tropical forest in the middle of the island. There happened to be a clearing in the forest. On the clearing were three incomplete wooden skeletons, each of which had a different defect. The postures were also different, but everyone dug a reminder note in the ground under the feet of the three skeletons to guide them to different places.

"Of the three notes, only one is true, and the other two may be fatal traps." George frowned.

Everyone was silent for a while. Li Tianyu looked at the three skeletons. In fact, it was a bit bewildering. The first skeleton was missing ribs and sat cross-legged on the ground; the second skeleton was missing his right hand, lying on the ground on his side; the third skeleton was missing. He was sitting on the ground with his left leg curled up with his legs in both hands. From the surface, I don't know which one is the "Fool" at all.

"Which one is the fool?" "The one lying on the side? It's stupid to look at the posture." "The one holding the legs with both hands is also stupid." The crew whispered, but to be honest, Li Tianyu didn't know which one. It's a fool, is there any symbolic meaning in the postures of these skeletons and what they lack? Is it related to some ancient religions?

But at this time, Shen Yan stepped forward and knocked on the head of the first skeleton, and there was a "dong dong" sound, which was obviously solid inside, and then Shen Yan knocked on the head of the second skeleton again. But this time there was a crisp "clang clang" sound.

"That's it, my head is empty, I must be a fool." Shen Yan patted the skull's head and said, Li Tianyu was suddenly a little curious: "Baby, how did you think of it?"

"Sometimes I also think that some men's brains are empty." Shen Yan said with a smile, and then added, "Of course it's not about you, my family Tianyu is one of the few men who don't get rid of their brains."

"It's hard to say..." Li Tianyu thought to himself with a dry smile, and then opened the note at the foot of the second skeleton.

The second clue reads "Avoid the darkness, hold a ceremony where the light is most abundant, jump in the direction of escape from the darkness, and hope is waiting in front." Compared with the first clue, this clue is more vague, without telling the direction and distance to go. Li Tianyu looked at this message and fell into deep thought: "The brightest place..."

Everyone looked at the top, the highest point of the island.

"Let's go." Li Tianyu said, looking at the highest part of the mountain behind him.

The island is not big, so the highest point is actually the top of a rock that is fifty to sixty meters high.

On the cliff, they found a peculiar "Magic Circle", with many different symbols painted on it, with a rusty sword standing in the middle. Somehow, Li Tianyu felt that this place looked a bit like an ancient Chinese sundial. Reminiscing about the previous message, "The place where the light is most prosperous, the direction to escape from the darkness", Li Tianyu suddenly understood.

"When the light is at its peak, should it be twelve o'clock noon?" Li Tianyu replied, turning to Liu Zihao.

Liu Zihao understood, he raised his watch and pointed it at the sun in the sky and compared it: "It is four o'clock in the afternoon. According to the hands of the watch, the sun should be in that direction at twelve o'clock..."

After determining the direction, Liu Zihao stood in that direction and raised his hand to the magic circle, emitting a strong light.

However, the reflection of the pointer at this time points to the cliff ahead. Seeing this situation, everyone hesitated~lightnovelpub.net~Zheng Nanxing muttered: "Does this clue really refer to this direction? Isn't it making people jump into a cliff and commit suicide?"

"Who knows? Try it." Li Tianyu said with a shrug, then came to the front of the cliff and jumped.

He didn't care, anyway, even if he fell to the ground, he couldn't die at a height of fifty or sixty meters.

But then he "cocked" in his heart and touched the ground much earlier than expected, so that he staggered a step as if stepping on the empty ladder, and sat down on the ground.

Only then did he discover that there was a raised cliff face under the cliff, because the texture on the surface of the strange rock was quite special, it looked like it was one piece, and there was no such thing as a raised piece. To put it bluntly, A visual scam.

"It's okay, there is a ladder below." Li Tianyu shouted to the top, and then looked at the front, a dark cave with faint light gleaming inside. He strode forward and turned on the thunder armor to illuminate the thunder armor's light. A treasure chest appeared in front of him. From the gap of the treasure chest, a large number of glittering gold coins and various gems could be vaguely seen.

Obviously, this is the "treasure" of pirates.
