Dazzi filled the glass lamp with new kerosene, and then turned the lamp head gear. The flame immediately increased a few times, the darkness was invisible, and the room became bright. The old tree man began to identify the treasure map. He spread the soft parchment on the table and examined it carefully.

Tangke maintained his vigilance, did not dare to get too close, and ensured that he could draw his sword at any time.

"This is the treasure map about the Cangtian. Judging from the oldness of the parchment, it can roughly match the year when the Cangtian disappeared, and it is very reliable. It is written in the language of the dead. The answer to the mystery of the disappearance of the Sky." Dazzi said flatly, after thousands of years, nothing could make his mood fluctuate.

"What is written in the language of the dead?" Tangke asked.

"I'll know as soon as I hear it."

"Listen?" Tangke said in surprise.

"Yes, even the written language of the dead can only be deciphered by listening." Dazzi put the treasure map to his ear, where there was a tree scar with a hole, he closed his eyes, expression serene.

The undead language on the parchment made a rustling sound, like crying.

Tangke opened his eyes slightly.

"I am waiting for you on Snake Cave Island. There is a boat and unknown treasures here, but it is full of danger, and the island is full of snake people. If you know the danger and insist on coming to me, just Come to Snake Cave Island at the beginning of the rainy moon, and take the antidote made of unicorn horn powder and mandrake grass. You have to follow the route in the picture to reach the most dangerous hinterland of the island. After that, you will get This ship, and I will be freed."

Dazzi lost his eyes and muttered.

Tangke memorized every sentence carefully. These simple words contained several important information. That ship should be the Sky, but what does Unknown Treasure mean? Is there any other good stuff out there?

In addition, the snake people mentioned in it should be the biggest danger in this trip.

"Why do you have to go there at the beginning of the rainy moon? What is the snake man? Where can I get that antidote?"

Daqi replied without hesitation: "Snake people are a branch of the sea orcs. They have poisonous fangs comparable to cobras, and can breathe out paralyzing poisonous mist. The wooden halberds they hold are also poisonous, and they are very terrifying enemies. There are tens of thousands of snake people living on Snake Cave Island, and when they see creatures of other races, they will attack and show no mercy."

Tangke sucked in a breath of cold air. The number of tens of thousands of snake people gathered together, and the matter became difficult. At best, he had only close to 400 people. How could he deal with the army of tens of thousands?

"Snake people have the same habits as snakes. They mate and give birth every year at the beginning of the rainy moon for a month. The treasure map lets you go at this time, just to avoid the island. The snake people will be relatively safe."

Tangke estimated that it was the beginning of the Christmas month, and there were still two months before the rainy moon, but Snake Cave Island was far away and the time was urgent.

Daqi continued: "As for the antidote, mandrake is a common drug and is widely grown, but unicorn horn powder is very rare, and the market is full of impure unicorn horn powder, the price is about For a thousand gold coins a pound can make a hundred antidote."

Tangke nodded with satisfaction, then asked reluctantly, "Is there any other important thing?"

"You have to sail strictly according to the records on the treasure map. In addition, there is a poisonous mist floating around Snake Cave Island all year round. Long-term inhalation of the air there will lead to chronic poisoning. At that time, you should take an antidote every five days. , once you alert the snake people on the island, you will be buried there." Daqi warned.

"Thank you for reminding me, is there anything else?"

"Gone."

Tangke stretched out his hand, and the other party wisely returned the treasure map to him, he smiled and saluted, and said, "Thank you again sincerely for your confession, although I think I should give you some hard work, but it depends on your The family is so splendid, there should be no shortage of petty profits, goodbye, old gentleman."

"Goodbye, child, I wish you a happy time with those snake people." The tree people didn't like such bad boys, and replied back.

Tangke got the answer he wanted, stepped back step by step, and said, "If I have any questions, I will come to you, and take me to apologize to your housekeeper."

The tree man laughed bitterly, watching the bad boy escape, he didn't chase it, it was just a small episode at night, and he would not leave any marks in the long river of human growth.

Tang Ke returned triumphantly and was very excited. He successfully escaped from the compound all the way, climbed the wall and returned to the street, where he joined the one-eyed and others who were waiting outside. The night was already deep, and Tangke didn't elaborate. After returning to the hotel, he let everyone rest for a good night, and then he would care about it tomorrow. The others, though curious, were sleepy and had no objection.

Tang Ke was unable to sleep, and was inexplicably excited by this dangerous treasure hunt. He called up the [Navigation Chart] interface and found the location of Snake Cave Island, just south of Port Sasot. He calculated the voyage using the functions attached to the system, and concluded that it would take about a month and a half to sail there.

In this way, he still has less than half a month to prepare, and then he has to set sail, otherwise he will miss the beginning of the rainy moon, and he will have to wait for the next year to go to the treasure hunt.

He slept all night in his thoughts, and excitedly called everyone together the next day, including one-eyed, Hualu, Stephen Saiba and other important crew members, as well as several sailor team leaders.

Everyone gathered around, and there was an old treasure map on the table. It was the first time this thing was put on the table.

Tangke, like a host, talked eloquently: "This is a treasure map. I have found someone to identify it, and it is 100% true. It records the location of a ship, and there is an important treasure, the location is just On Snake Cave Island. I'm determined to find the ship and the treasure there."

"Snake Cave Island is very dangerous." One Eye and Wendy said in unison.

These two are aboriginal people from other worlds, and they know the legend about Snake Cave Island. Although it is not as infamous as the Ten Forbidden Seas, no one dares to go there to die. Thousands of serpent people stood there, attacking all foreign creatures, and their fangs made people shudder.

Although Hualu is also an aborigines, she is still young and grew up on Haixing Island.

"I know Snake Cave Island is very dangerous, but I know how to avoid them!" Tangke told about the beginning of the rainy moon, when the snake people were busy mating and giving birth, and they would gather together. * With the matching snake crowd, you can safely reach the treasure location.

The crew recruited by the system had no objection to the sailors, such as Cliff, who was even more excited, and strongly supported the treasure hunt. Stephen Saiba began to think about the known antidote formula and fell into deep thought.

One-Eyed was a little hesitant, but when he thought of finding the Cangtian, he also strengthened his confidence. If you want to deal with a magic ship like the Purgatory, you must use a magic ship, and getting the Sky is a great opportunity.

Wendy regards Tangke as her benefactor. Even if it is a dangerous place, she will abide by the captain's duty and drive the boat into it.

Hua revealed that she was mainly looking for her sister, and she had no interest in treasure and magic boats, but she was weak, and even if she didn't want to, she didn't dare to express her opinion.

The treasure hunt was unanimously approved, Tang Ke slammed the table, and said with an aura: "If we can successfully find the Sky, even if there are no other treasures, each sailor will receive five gold coins, and the crew will receive twenty gold coins! If you find the treasure, you will get an extra bonus at that time!"

After making this promise, the sailors' enthusiasm was mobilized, and several sailor team leaders expressed that they would convey the good news.

"But for the time being, keep the Cangtian a secret from other sailors, so as not to attract bees and butterflies. After all, the Cangtian is also a magic ship, and other captains will covet this ship." Tang Ke finally warned.

After that, it entered the stage of intense preparations, and the main characters of the pirate group began to divide their work.

Tangke told the ship doctor about the two main ingredients and asked the ship doctor to buy and prepare the antidote, because this batch of drugs is too expensive~lightnovelpub.net~ The cost can only be controlled within 2,000 gold coins.

Because of the serious shortage of antidote, Tang Ke exchanged 30 bottles of antidote with the system, each bottle cost 20 reward points. The above introduction said that it can remove snake venom, but I don't know how effective it is to deal with snake venom, so it can only be used as emergency medicine. .

One-eyed and Wendy are in charge of other things to prepare for going to sea, such as buying spare sails and rigging, as well as sunscreen and sailing gloves and other supplies, and inquired about the news of the route to Snake Cave Island, especially if there is any activity on the route recently. Pirates and Navy.

There is really big news recently, that is, the Golden Beard Pirates are rushing to the Greenland Empire and will pass this route. Goldenbeard's trip is to collect tribute from the Greenland Empire and sign a treaty not to attack Greenland ships for three years.

To put it bluntly, Golden Beard is going to collect protection fees from the Greenland Empire.

The most important part of the trip is the antidote. Two weeks have passed since the antidote was purchased, and Tang Ke became an ant on a hot pot. The day the antidote was available, it was announced to go to sea.

Everyone rushed to the port and went to the dock to find the Tornado and Black Pearl, which had been staying for a long time. Antidote is now considered more important than gold coins, and in order to avoid accidents, it is divided equally between the two ships. Tangke went to go through the departure procedures, and brought out the slaves and spit frogs that were imprisoned on behalf of the port.

Everyone boarded the boat one after another, and the atmosphere was lively.

Tangke's heart was up and down. Standing on the deck of the long-lost Tornado, he looked around. By chance, he found a familiar figure on a boat. It turned out that Lawrence was escorting the prisoners onto the boat!
