【492】 Mian Island(1/2)
"That's it..."
Yesula was a little disappointed.
"Don't be upset, he is Chinese, but you are the first foreign chess piece I have set up. Speaking of which, you two are really destined to..."
"Why? What's the fate between me and that person?"
Ye Sula pouted.
"You guys all have a treasure map..."
Long Hao was fascinated by leisurely and sighed at the coincidence.
The food in the Qingyu Dragon Boat was not infinite, so after just a while, Long Hao and Ye Sula took a boat to leave the treasure island and headed straight to Eurasia with that considerable treasure.
With the bug of the Qingyu Dragon Boat, all coastlines in East Asia are unprepared. Long Hao can log in wherever he wants.
Long Hao was not too prodigal and did not drive to Southeast Asia. After all, the power of the Qingyu Dragon Boat also consumes energy... He chose the nearby Lushun Port, landed on the Liaodong Peninsula, and placed Ye Sula down.
With money, all obstacles were paper tigers. Ye Sula showed her identity as a foreigner, so she successfully bought a Western villa in Lushunkou and lived in it.
It took some time to arrange the security work before Long Hao left Lushun alone and returned to the waters of Sakhalin Island.
As for the treasure, part of it was left for Yesula to keep.
Although this huge treasure from the Genghis Khan era is considerable, Long Hao didn't take it seriously. After all, he was a man who salvaged the treasure of the shipwreck of the Age of Discovery!
Was it once a terrible sea of water...
Of course, it is not that 50 tons of gold is not expensive. But in comparison, Long Hao is more looking forward to another treasure map.
Needless to say, another treasure map was handed over by Zhang Yuehu. Long Hao summoned the Qingyu Dragon Boat this time and brought the treasure map over.
The treasure map is a fishy parchment paper with carbon scars and a half key is included.
The key material is neither gold nor iron, which is very special. Long Hao has studied it before. This is made of a metal fossil suspected to be deep in the earth's crust and cannot be forged.
If it weren't for the sake of this half key, Long Hao might have thrown away this ancestral treasure map long ago!
Since he accidentally came to Sakhalin Island from the Arctic Ocean, Long Hao simply did not stop and decided to take out the treasure.
The conditions are just right now. Because several big figures died, Sakhalin Island was in chaos. The army could not be dispatched, and the navy cruised became a decoration, which just gave Long Hao a chance to sneak in alone.
As for missing half of the key... Long Hao doesn't care much about this. He is not an ordinary person. With his alchemy methods, does he have a treasure trove door that cannot be opened?
Long Hao is full of confidence.
The industry of alchemists is a high-risk, lonely, and risky business after the era of great destruction.
High risks bring high returns, and the alchemist is actually very similar to the pirates in the early days of the Age of Discovery.
Some of them were sent to gallows, while others saved a fortune for their descendants.
Since Long Hao is an alchemist, he naturally has the risk factor in his bones and has the temperament of a lone hero.
Originally, he was not strong enough and had insufficient time, but now he has a group of alchemy weapons such as the Qingyu Dragon Boat to help him get the foundation. He has another half a year of "internship".
If this treasure is missed, even if Long Hao absorbs more gold, he will definitely not be able to explore the peak of alchemy in the future: because his actions are contrary to his original intention, his thoughts cannot be understood, and his cultivation will stagnate.
As the end of 1892 approached, Long Hao did not have the time to consider Christmas, but drove a green jade dragon boat alone and quietly arrived at a sea area in the northern part of Sakhalin Island.
This sea area is closer to the Jugjur Mountains in Russia, on the side of the Chantal Islands, the inner edge of the Okhotsk Sea.
The Chantal Islands belonged to China before 1858. It, along with Sakhal Island and the northeast, were all land ceded by the Qing court.
Shame should be remembered.
Long Hao found this place and felt even more at ease: This was once the territory of China. Although it was once the place where the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty lived, since the Qing Dynasty dared to enter the pass, I came here to take away the treasure, which would be considered a reward for the return.
Report.
Having said that, how did Long Hao determine this treasure trove?
In other words, it also has some mystery.
The treasure map given by Zhang Yuehu was filled with meaningless carbon black, but Long Hao was inspired by the exoteric liquid and made a reagent exactly the same as in Yesula's small bottle.
This reagent has complex ingredients. If it weren't for Long Hao, others would definitely not be able to copy it. It was precisely because of this reason that Long Hao was surprised and thought of using this exogenous liquid to try to use the "unexplained" treasure map to try it on
Try it.
This test is really true, the carbon black treasure map really shows the pattern!!
The treasure map is written in Chinese, and Long Hao is quite pleased: NND, the language I learned can finally come in handy.
It seems that the text on the picture has been around for a while. Long Hao called this sea area: Mian Island Sea Area according to the text on the treasure map.
You will understand by listening to the name. The treasure land is the Miao Island!
Today is December 24, 1892. Long Hao stood in the control room of the Qingyu Dragon Boat, eating deep-sea urchin shells while talking to himself: Mian Island, it’s really... a scam!
Deep-sea urchin is a soft creature living 1,500 meters under the sea. It is cool in nature, delicious in taste, and non-toxic. Long Hao then went to Hokkaido to get some mustard. With soy sauce, the raw meat softened into the throat. No, let alone the taste of the raw meat.
It's right.
"Mian Island, as the name suggests, is it an island... Is there anything sunk under the sea? Humph, can the sunken land still be called an island?"
Long Hao murmured to himself angrily, put a big mouthful and chewed the hot raw meat into his stomach.
It turns out that the reason why Mian Island cheated is because Long Hao didn’t even see the “island hair” within a radius of ten kilometers after confirming his latitude and longitude!
If the Qingyu Dragon Boat had not been able to penetrate the sea and open a transparent wall and window, Long Hao would have thought he had been fooled by the treasure map and had a vain trip.
After inspecting the sea water, Long Hao discovered that the so-called Mian Island was actually sunk below sea level and soaked in water. The depth reached as much as twenty meters!
In other words, even if a ship passes by, you can't find that there will be a different world at the bottom of the ship.
From the distance from the seabed, Mian Island is like a huge irregular stone, with a volume of about tens of billions of cubic meters, like a sleeping iceberg, quietly lurking on the seabed.
Looks awe-inspiringly.
After Long Hao confirmed that the big guy who 'slept' at the bottom of the sea was undoubtedly the Miao Island, he was surprised and also understood: No wonder the treasure map says that Miao Island will take a hundred years to see it once. According to the current situation, it is only a hundred years.
?It is basically a matter of not knowing how long it takes. Perhaps it will take several epochs, and this small island will resurface after the changes of sea and land!
Long Hao was indeed a little disappointed at first and was about to leave, but an accidental discovery made him change his mind and stay.
Because, he found that there was an erupting tidal stream under the Mian Island!
This tide current seems to come from a submarine volcano. The continuous eruption is enough to push this land into Shanghai!
Long Hao was surprised and estimated that according to the continuous increase in the tidal current, in about 30 hours, this huge force will make Mian Island see the light of the sky again!
I counted on my fingers. Wasn’t it December 25, the traditional Christmas for Westerners?
It is really commemorative to choose such a special day to witness the rise of Mian Island once a century, and it is also a coincidence that it is no longer a coincidence.
Long Hao had also been puzzled, saying that it would be seen in a hundred years. In other words, this strange and powerful Xiliu only appears once every hundred years. Is it because his character exploded and he was about to come to search for treasure, but he was 'talking'
Appeared out by itself?
Is this the protagonist's halo?
Or is it a fate with me in this treasure of the island?
Long Hao doesn't believe in gods very much. He has 30 hours to wait anyway, so he simply spent more energy from the golden source and carefully investigated the surroundings of the "big stone" under the sea.
Don’t forget that although I have spent the midterm exam, I still have half a year left... Long Hao is still in the internship period of "doing his best to make a fortune".
He naturally wouldn't mind if he could consume more energy.
After investigation, Long Hao felt relieved. This thirty stream was very interesting. As long as he controlled the Qingyu Dragon Boat to get close, its gushing force would become very large. If he waited until he left it ten kilometers, his strength would gradually weaken.
.
The Xiliu is as spiritual as it can recognize the approach of the treasure map. Once it gets closer, the Xiliu will increase, as if it is eager to "sell" the Mian Island.
The century mentioned in the Carbon Black Treasure Map is actually just a rough quantifier. As long as it is within the approximate age range, if anyone holding the Treasure Map comes near Mian Island, Xiliu will accelerate the push of it in Shanghai.
noodle.
After exploring, just wait.
30 hours passed in a flash, and it was five or six o'clock in the evening. The sky on Mian Island was still very bright, and the day was everywhere, and it was impossible to see that it was about dusk.
The Qingyu Dragon Boat floated out of the sea near Mian Island. It was still some distance from the mainland. There was nothing around except floating ice cubes.
It’s so scary that it’s so heart-wrenching!
Finally, with a tremor, the upper part of the Miao Island began to emerge. It was a little black stone. On the endless ocean where blue and white meet, it seemed to have a "click" and pierced a hole!
If the sea water is like a solid color fabric, the black dot is like a tailor's scissor. With a gap, the hole behind it will grow bigger and bigger, and the momentum will not be stopped.
The sky darkened in accordance with the rules at this time, and the sky was as gloomy as a prelude to thunder. Long Hao witnessed a miracle through the walls and windows.
In just ten minutes, the sea water boiled, and the island of Mian rose up vigorously like a sea god on a patrol.
Like the miracle of the Creator!
When the sea water is completely calm, the spray of water will no longer splash, and the foam will dissipate, and a green island that seems to be a paradise will appear in front of Long Hao.
The appearance of this island is incompatible with the surrounding areas.
The cold Sea of Okhotsk is surrounded by the cold, but this island is full of spring. Eighty percent of the area above is covered with lush and hurrying trees, which makes people feel refreshed and feel the nameless joy of the earth rejuvenating.
