Chapter 289 Sailing Diary(1/2)
Luo Songyuan disappeared quietly, briefly and suddenly...
But it leaves us with countless questions.
He only mentioned two words.
Mountain top and bugs.
There is no doubt that these two words he struggled to say on the verge of losing his mind must be the key, which made me think a lot.
Could it be that the weirdness shown by Qi Houhou and the others is related to the bugs Luo Songyuan mentioned?
What kind of insect is this?
There is a Gu King among us, the nemesis of all poisons and insects in the world. Since receiving my master's guidance, the relationship between Lao Bai and that Gu King has entered the honeymoon period. The two often communicate in private.
If there really were any bugs on this boat, King Gu would have warned him long ago!
What kind of insect is this that can lurk under the nose of Gu King without being discovered?!
However, the world is full of wonders. Compared with it, we people are too small. If there is something beyond our understanding, it is not a big deal. Being in this industry, we are very aware of the magic of this world.
The term "insect" is acceptable, but the word "mountain top" mentioned by Luo Songyuan is a bit sensational.
As far as I know, there is only one mountain in this place, and this mountain is on the so-called fairy island, and it is right in the center!!
Could it be that Luo Songyuan had set foot there before?
Qi Houhou said that the central area of the fairy island is a restricted area. As long as you set foot in it, it is basically impossible to come out alive.
If Luo Songyuan really entered there, is the cause of their death related to this?
I thought over and over again and thought it was really possible!
According to Old Man Li, only the armor worn by those who were born extraordinary can form Yinshan Wen after their death. The world is very big, but most people are ordinary, and they are born with outstanding characters.
After all, it is a rare existence in the vast sea of people. The Yinshan text is destined to be very rare. It has appeared only a handful of times in the thousands of years of civilization. Otherwise, it is impossible that only Old Man Li among us has heard of it.
But how many pop up here all at once?
More than twenty pieces!!
Apart from the mysterious and unknown land in the center of the island, where else could so many Yinshan texts appear all at once?
Too many questions...
After a short silence, I stood up and sighed softly: "Anyway, I finally got a little hint. Somehow, these Yinshan texts reminded me of that song sung by the sharks."
It mentions a dusty ancient country, and these armors should be used by the soldiers of this ancient country. What kind of country is this, and why are there so many people in the army who have had visions during their lives?"
"Who knows?"
Lao Bai shrugged: "Eighty percent of it is an ancient country with not much historical data. At most, there are only a few words recorded in some epics, or there is simply nothing left."
My master held the broken bones of Luo Songyuan in his hand, and sighed softly with reluctance. He handed the bones to Shunzi, who was crying. He patted the other person's shoulder and asked the old one-eye to clean up the body of the wilted child.
, after all, if you are traveling with us, you can't just expose your body here.
The old one-eyed man looked back in confusion, and the corners of his eyes twitched fiercely.
This is indeed a difficult task.
The corpse was no longer human, it would be more appropriate to say it was a ball of rotten flesh. The big wilted head was smashed into a rotten watermelon by Yin Shanwen's fist, and the body was lying on the spot. It was a chaotic time and no one could care about it.
His body was left lying on the ground and was trampled back and forth countless times by more than twenty armors. His bones and flesh were flying everywhere, which was shocking. Even though I was used to seeing death, I was still reeling from the blood. In order to avoid having nightmares, I directly
Ignoring the old one-eyed look for help, I turned around and followed my master to return to the cabin to rest.
"etc!!"
Suddenly, Zhang Xinya shouted and stopped my master. Like a mad scientist who suddenly got inspiration, she jumped up from the ground, pointed to a cabin at the end of the corridor and said: "The clues Luo Songyuan left us may not be the truth."
It’s not just these two short words, there are more important clues. If you carefully review the scene before his soul died, he was always looking at Shunzi until the last moment, when his head moved slightly. At that time
His facial features are blurred, but judging from the direction he is facing, he should be looking at the cabin. Maybe he knows that he has no time, so he is simply using this method to guide us to find clues!!"
To be honest, if she hadn't mentioned it, none of us would have paid attention to such details, but looking back carefully, it seems that this is really the case.
The cabin Zhang Xinya was talking about is just to the left of the steel door that seals the entrance to the cabin. It is the first cabin here.
Shunzi was originally confused by the ups and downs, but when he heard the words Luo Songyuan, he suddenly came back to his senses. As if he was having a flashback, he slapped his head hard: "Oh, why don't I have a brain like this?"
What do you think of this? That cabin was my father’s cabin, and he and I lived there for a long time!”
"Is this reliable?"
Lao Bai hesitated and said: "Luo Songyuan has been dead for ten years. During this period, the boss on this ship was Qi Hou. When Qi Hou took office, how could he not go there and search? Let me tell you, even if there is something,
I’m afraid I’ll let Monkey Qi take it early!”
"How would you know if you don't look for it?"
Brother Yaozi walked and said with a smile: "We are already trapped here anyway, are we still afraid of wasting a little time?"
While he was talking, he was already standing at the door of the cabin. He turned the handle and found that the door was locked. Sure enough, there were some doorways. There were many cabins here, but this one was locked. Fortunately, it was not reinforced with steel plates.
Brother Yao Zi took a few steps back and kicked the door open with a "clang" sound.
The captain's cabin is indeed extraordinary. The layout is completely different from other cabins. Although the area is similar, it is not so crowded. There is only a desk and a single bed, so it is obviously a single room.
We started working together and searched inside and out several times, but found nothing.
As Lao Bai expected, Qi Houhou had been here a long time ago. As the place where Luo Songyuan slept and worked, there should be many documents. In fact, we didn't find even a piece of paper.
"That doesn't make sense!"
Zhang Xinya couldn't help but mutter to herself: "Since Luo Songyuan has been looking at this place, the reminder is already obvious. This is unreasonable!"
I glanced at Shunzi, who was sitting on the single bed in despair. He must have been moved by the scene. He had been sleepwalking since he entered this place, so I stepped forward and patted his shoulder gently. I originally wanted to say that he was dead.
, The living are working hard. You, I, are already very cold, but we are still warm. Let’s first think about whether we can survive. We are also worried that this kid will go crazy and jump up to beat me, so I have to express it tactfully. I have been driving for a long time.
circle.
After hearing this, Shunzi lay back on the bed, looking straight at the roof of the cabin. Looking at that, he fell into memories again. I hated him so much that I almost wanted to punch him in the face.
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, he was so angry that he tossed his sleeves and was about to leave, but Shunzi suddenly sat up straight again and said: "I remembered, there is still a place you are not looking for!"
Lao Bai quickly asked where it was.
Shunzi got off the bed and asked us to move the bed to one side. Then he tapped lightly on the bulkhead blocked by the bed. After a moment, he picked at the gap in the bulkhead and pulled gently. With a "click", a piece of four-four
The square board was actually removed, revealing a hidden pavilion behind it.
Shunzi smiled and said that this was his father's safe. Any important things would be hidden here in the past.
Lao Bai pulled him aside and took out a Type 54 pistol and a few rounds of bullets from the secret cabinet. However, it was very worn and corroded, so no one would dare to use it. Once this thing was fired, who knew it was going to hit the enemy?
I'd better call myself, in addition, there is a thick book with four words "nautical diary" written on it!
"What a good thing. With this, everything Luo Songyuan has experienced is clear!"
Lao Bai was overjoyed and raised the sailing diary in his hand. A dark object fell out of the diary and made a crisp "ding-dong" sound when it hit the ground.
My master let out a light sigh and bent down to pick up the object. Only then did I see clearly that it was a round piece of metal as big as a palm. There were some strange words on it, which should also be a kind of structural characters. They were densely packed and circled.
Big circle.
"Look at these words..."
Lao Bai hesitated for a moment and said softly: "This seems to be a shark's writing. Although I can't understand it, but if you count the numbers, it seems to be the shark's song that Shunzi sang when he was sick!"
"The rust is also interesting!"
Zhang Xinya took the metal piece from my master's hand, rubbed it in his hand, and said: "Look, the rust in the middle of this metal piece is reddish brown. This is iron oxide, showing a texture similar to that of leaves.
The shape shows that the material of this area is iron. However, other areas show a gray color, which seems to be basic magnesium carbonate, the oxide of magnesium. In other words, the material of other areas is magnesium!!
A piece of metal with two metals on it, what is it for?"
"Never mind it!"
Lao Bai opened the sailing diary: "There must be an answer in this!!"
This diary is very thick. The earliest entry can be traced back to nineteen years ago, nine years before Luo Songyuan entered District 17. All of Luo Songyuan's adventures should be recorded in it.
There was too much content, and we didn’t have time to read anything else, so we turned directly to the records left by Luo Songyuan after he entered District 17 ten years ago.
What happened in the earliest days is pretty much what we know.
They were drawn into the whirlpool. Luo Songyuan thought they were certain to die, so he took the opportunity to push Shunzi out. The only difference was that the process of entering here through the cracks on the seabed was not as tragic as Qi Hou said. Luo Songyuan was very strong.
The crew members on this giant ship are all the elites of the sea gang. They are not comparable to Old One-Eye and others. The crew members all know some mysterious methods and are even equipped with a lot of firearms. No matter how powerful the sharks are, they are still made of flesh and blood.
, the shuttle was smashed into sieves in the past. When encountering the sharks, they had the upper hand. The record above is clear. After the sharks boarded the ship, the battle was short and extremely intense. They lost seven people.
Individually, he killed more than 200 sharks.
After entering here, they were not as embarrassed as we were. The damage to the hull was very small. After a simple repair, they started sailing directly. The journey was smooth and the island was quickly found!!
The situation on the island was true. At least, when he first landed, Luo Songyuan felt that it was like a paradise. Former sea gang members and the missing people involved in the whirlpool in District 17 were almost all there.
On the island, there was even an oil tanker that was accidentally involved, which had a lot of fuel reserves. In short, everything was available. The survivors on the island welcomed them very much, and even held a bonfire party.
However, on the day of the party, half of Luo Songyuan's crew members disappeared, including Qi Houhou.
