I looked towards where Zhao Hu was pointing. On the hillside of a mountain on the island, there was a simple wooden house. The wooden house was covered with a large white cloth, which looked like a sail or something.
Old Shark said: "It might be a sail, or it might be a plastic sheet used to cover the cargo on the freighter. It's too far away to see clearly."
The pigtail said: "It shouldn't be canvas. How old is this? There are still people using sailboats like that for ocean-going activities."
The old shark sighed and said: "That's not necessarily true. There are still many sailing ships sailing, but they are different from the sailing ships in ancient times. Maybe the ship ran aground here and sank here, or maybe they snatched it from the ship. It’s used as an awning.”
"Is there such a possibility?" Zhao Hu's eyes were bright at this time: "Whether it is ancient or modern, many ships sank in this area, and then these savages salvaged all the treasures from the sunken ships and hid them in In a cave or something?”
The old shark gave Zhao Hu a thumbs up: "The situation you mentioned does exist, and there are quite a lot of it. In the Angel Eye Sea, there are many islands with indigenous people. There was an indigenous person back then because he was from a A lot of exquisite jewelry was salvaged from the sunken ship, which was later discovered by a French expedition team. The expedition teamed up with the French military to loot the island and killed many natives. But now is the new era, so we can’t Killing innocent people indiscriminately like before will be condemned internationally, so this kind of thing will no longer happen."
"Then let's go to the island to find some treasures?" Zhao Hu asked tentatively.
"Then are you going to look for it or rob it? If you want to rob it, I still suggest not to do it like this. Although they are savages, they are still human beings. This is unethical and will definitely bleed to death. If you go to a desert island Just pick it up, that’s no problem.”
"The problem is, there won't be these treasures on a desert island. At most, they are floating on the sea and then blown to the island. How can these treasures, which are worth serious money and silver, float on the sea? It either sank in the water or was fished out.”
"Yeah, so this won't work."
At this time, the pigtail curled his lips and said to Zhao Hu: "That's right, don't use this crooked idea. The savages are already poor enough. If you still want to take advantage of others, you are still not a human being."
Zhao Hu glanced at the braid and said, "As long as you are kind and kind, okay?"
The old shark smiled, took a puff of his cigarette and said, "However, we can make deals with the savages and exchange or buy treasures from them."
"Making a deal? How can we still make a deal with them?"
"Well, the savages on some islands are not savages in the complete sense. They are influenced by the outside world and will also do business with people on passing ships, using their local products in exchange for needed supplies and so on."
"Social products, are there any local products here?"
"Of course, such as dried fish, shark teeth, etc."
"Then let's go back and find an opportunity to find an island with savages to pick up some leaks?" Zhao Hu asked.
The old shark shook his head: "I don't recommend doing this. First of all, this is the high seas, and you are not legally responsible for killing people. Secondly, in the world of these savages, there are no restrictions such as law and order. Doing transactions with them is risky. Yes, maybe they will suddenly attack you during the transaction. Since we can salvage the sunken ship, why should we be greedy for this thing."
I nodded and said that was indeed the case. The pigtail even tried to trick Zhao Hu, saying that Zhao Hu’s situation was small and so on. Zhao Hu pinched the pigtail and said that he simply thought it would be more fun and interesting to go to the island and deal with the savages. , not just to covet that little treasure.
It is said that after our ship anchored and stopped, it was almost three hundred meters away from the nearest coast of the island. Not long after we stopped, we could see several savages moving on the opposite shore. They seemed to be observing our ship, and Later, there were more and more savages, and one of them pushed the raft into the water from the shore, probably trying to take advantage of us.
For the sake of safety, Old Shark asked us to shoot into the sky with our guns. As soon as the gunshot rang out, these savages understood that we had weapons in our hands, and later they dispersed and went back to the mountains behind.
Next, we should use this place as our base and check whether there are any sunken ships on the nearby seabed.
Just when we were putting on our equipment and preparing to go into the water, Black Loach suddenly came over to report that it had spotted a ship approaching in the distance. It seemed to be the ship that had been following us before.
When I heard what he said, my heart skipped a beat:
Could it be that Yang Dawei and the others are following them again?
I immediately went up to the lookout with Zhao Hu and looked with the binoculars at the place pointed by Black Loach. Sure enough, to our north, there was a small fishing boat heading here, and I seemed to see a person. Standing on the bow of the boat, he looked towards us. Judging from his clothes and other things, he must be Yang Dawei.
"Holy shit, this idiot actually found us, how is this possible?" Zhao Hu said with some annoyance: "We have abandoned them for ten days, why did they still find us?"
"Is it possible that we were lucky enough to meet us?" I said.
Zhao Hu shook his head: "It shouldn't be possible. This is the sea. A ship is like a leaf on the sea. It is too small. How can it be so easy to encounter?"
"Then what you mean is that they found it based on navigation. Could it be that Yang Dawei left something on our ship that can be used for navigation?"
"It's possible, let's go to his house to check." Zhao Hu said, and asked Black Loach to take a good look at the ship behind him, and then walked towards the bottom of the observation deck. Naturally, I also Follow him down quickly.
In fact, just after Yang Dawei jumped into the sea, we already went to check his room. We didn't find anything at that time, but we didn't think much about it at the time and the inspection wasn't very careful, so now it's necessary to check it carefully.
Zhao Hu and I went to his room and searched for almost ten minutes, but found nothing unusual.
Liu Xuanxuan later came over to give her advice. She said, "Why don't you go and check in my room? I think that for such a cunning person, if he really hid something, it would definitely not be in his own room. It should be I’ll hide it in my room.”
I thought what Liu Xuanxuan said made sense, and then Zhao Hu and I went to Liu Xuanxuan's room to check. Sure enough, we found a wooden box under Liu Xuanxuan's bed.
This wooden box was glued to the bottom of Liu Xuanxuan's bed board with strong glue, and there was a hole about three or four centimeters in diameter on the wooden box. If you shine a flashlight into it, you will see that there are some grass and feathers inside. It feels like a It was like a bird's nest. Just when I was about to tear the wooden box off by force, a black bird suddenly jumped out from inside, and then flew outside.
Zhao Hu yelled at that time and slapped the bird. He probably wanted to take a picture of the bird, but this guy was small and agile, so Zhao Hu couldn't take the picture at all. We chased him for a while. , but in the end the bird was allowed to fly out of the cabin, and finally ran outside, flying towards Yang Dawei's ship to the north.
Standing on the deck and looking at the ship behind him, Zhao Hu cursed angrily: "Damn it, Yang Dawei must have arranged this bird and pigeon a long time ago, so it's not us who got rid of them in the past ten days, but them. It is deliberately far away from us to let us relax our vigilance."
"That's not what happened. I was careless. After Yang Dawei jumped into the sea, we should have looked for him carefully."
At this time, Ma Miao and Gouzi also ran over to ask about the situation. After learning that the bird and pigeon were found under Liu Xuanxuan's bed, Ma Miao pointed at Liu Xuanxuan and said, "I think there is something wrong with her. Why is this bird My son is not under someone else’s bed, but he is under her bed?”
