Situ Nan deliberately placed the black gold dagger and the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapon Collection at the exit of the passage, just to give it to the destined person. It was clearly written on the kraft paper that he hoped that the destined person who would enter this place in the future could send the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapon Collection back to the Tang Sect.
As for the black gold dagger, I will give it to someone who is destined to hold it.
Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips: "I didn't expect that Situ Nan's wife turned out to be a member of the Tang clan..." Ma Xiaoyao reached out and grabbed the black gold dagger from the small box and looked through it: "This dagger looks very ordinary? It's really unique.
Can you cut iron like clay?" Having said this, Ma Xiaoyao then swung his black gold dagger and stabbed it towards the stone wall next to him. The scene that happened next completely shocked Ma Xiaoyao's eyes.
"Pfft!"
The black gold dagger pierced into the stone wall easily, as easy as cutting tofu.
"Uh..." Ma Xiaoyao's eyes suddenly widened, and his face twitched: "So... so sharp... This dagger is too sharp..." Ma Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows: "Such a sharp dagger, if
Wouldn't it be easy to cut the big iron gate above your head?" Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoyao immediately raised his black gold dagger and slashed at the big iron gate.
"puff!"
Just like before, the dagger penetrated the iron door easily and encountered almost no resistance.
"It's really like cutting iron like clay!" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly manipulated the dagger to start cutting the large iron door.
A few minutes later, Ma Xiaoyao used a dagger to dig out a large hole half a meter wide in the large solid iron door. A breeze blew in from the outside... At this moment, the entire passage suddenly began to shake violently.
Then stones began to fall from the top of his head. Ma Xiaoyao was startled. He hurriedly climbed out of the big iron gate, using both his front and back legs. As soon as Ma Xiaoyao passed through the big iron gate, there was a loud noise behind him.
, Ma Xiaoyao looked back and was immediately dumbfounded.
Collapse, everything collapsed! All the passages that were safe just now collapsed, and even the big iron door disappeared...
"Boom boom boom..."
Just when Ma Xiaoyao was stunned, the ground suddenly began to tremble, "crackling..." Huge cracks appeared on the ground, one of which spread directly towards Ma Xiaoyao. Ma Xiaoyao was frightened, turned around and ran away
.
I don't know how long I ran until the ground stopped shaking. Ma Xiaoyao stopped panting. When he turned around, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. The few hills that were standing in front of him just now disappeared and were replaced.
There were huge pits, and bottomless cracks intertwined together, forming a shocking picture. At this moment, surging seawater suddenly burst out of the huge cracks, and in the blink of an eye,
Within a short period of time, several large pits were filled, and it was not over yet. The water was still pouring out, and it seemed that it was threatening to submerge the entire island.
Seeing more and more seawater spreading around, Ma Xiaoyao was frightened. What the hell is going on? It was fine just now, but why did it become like this in the blink of an eye? Is it that person?
What did Situ Nan do?
It shouldn't be! Situ Nan left a suicide note, saying that he would leave all the treasures to future generations of destined people, so that future generations of destined people can use these treasures to recruit troops and overthrow the Qing Dynasty. Since this is the case, Situ Nan cannot arrange agencies to murder the destined people.
ah?
If it wasn't Situ Nan's fault, why did the collapse occur and cause sea water to pour in? Why is this? Ma Xiaoyao is puzzled!
In fact, all this was designed by Situ Nan. He installed a destruction device in the underground passage. As long as someone touches the mechanism, the destruction device will be activated, destroying the entire underground palace, and then drawing sea water to submerge the island.
The mechanism of the destruction device is located on the big iron gate at the end of the passage. Under normal circumstances, it will not be touched. However, Ma Xiaoyao used a black gold dagger to cut the large iron door randomly and hit it squarely, triggering the mechanism of the destruction device. Therefore, the entire underground palace
Destroy immediately.
In fact, Situ Nan did not expect that things would turn out like this. He deployed the destruction device purely to deal with the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers. Although this desert island was relatively far from the land, there was no 100% guarantee that it would not be discovered by the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers.
If the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty discover this place and come to attack, Situ Nan will activate the destruction device and die together with the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty!
Facts have proved that Situ Nan's idea was unnecessary. On the day of his death, the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers did not discover this desert island.
Because of Situ Nan's momentary negligence, he did not write down the matter of destroying the device in his suicide note, which led to the current situation.
In fact, the big iron door at the end of the passage has an opening mechanism. As long as you find the right mechanism, the big iron door can be opened easily. However, Ma Xiaoyao was too anxious and couldn't calm down to find the opening mechanism, so he directly used the black gold dagger.
The big iron gate was cut, so that the mechanism of the destruction device was triggered by Ma Xiaoyao. Then the entire underground palace was destroyed, and all the treasures placed in the underground palace were buried deep...
The destruction device arranged by Situ Nan was explosives. He buried a lot of explosives deep in the underground palace. As long as the mechanism was triggered, these explosives would explode immediately.
Fortunately, Ma Xiaoyao was lucky and escaped from the passage. If something unexpected happened, Ma Xiaoyao would be buried with Situ Nan.
…
On the top of the mountain.
Ma Xiaoyao's face was extremely ugly. At this moment, he wanted to cry, but he held it back in the end... There was a vast ocean all around, and the entire desert island was almost submerged. Only a small hilltop was left, which was the hilltop where Ma Xiaoyao was standing at the moment.
.
A vast desert island was submerged by the sea, and finally only a solitary mountaintop remained. Looking from a distance, it looked like a standing reef.
"God, how long do you want to torture me?" Ma Xiaoyao looked up to the sky and sighed.
…
A night of silence.
When he woke up the next day, Ma Xiaoyao found that the sea water had risen a lot. Originally, the distance between the top of the mountain and the sea was about seven or eight meters, but now it was still only four or five meters away. If this continues, it won't take long before the top of the mountain will collapse.
Completely submerged by sea water.
"I must not sit still and wait for death! I have to find a way to get out of here!" Ma Xiaoyao frowned and thought hard for a while, and then said with a wry smile: "It seems that I can only take the risk and give it a try. I hope God can take care of me."
There are some trees growing on the top of the mountain. The tallest one can be more than three meters high, and the shortest one is only one meter high. Ma Xiaoyao used a black gold dagger to chop down a small tree and cut off the curved parts at both ends, leaving only the straight middle.
Ma Xiaoyao used a black gold dagger to dig out two deep holes in the trunk of the tree to store fresh leaves. Then he made two wooden pots to hold rainwater. After preparations were completed, Ma Xiaoyao hugged the trunk and walked from the top of the mountain.
Jumped up and down.
"Plop!"
Ma Xiaoyao fell hard into the sea water, and he rose and fell several times before he stabilized his body. He hugged the tree trunk tightly with both hands, pushed hard with his legs, and the tree trunk immediately floated into the distance... Ma Xiaoyao turned his head and glanced
As the mountains get further and further away, I secretly say in my heart: Farewell, small island!
After calming down his irritable mood, Ma Xiaoyao began to float in the sea holding the tree trunk.
One day passed, and Ma Xiaoyao still did not see land or encounter any passing ships.
Three days passed, and Ma Xiaoyao still saw no land or ship.
As time goes by, the leaves and rainwater stored by Ma Xiaoyao are getting less and less, and they are about to be eaten up. If there are no leaves and rainwater, Ma Xiaoyao can only wait to starve to death or die of thirst. The sea water is salty,
You can't drink it at all. Yes, there are indeed many fish in the sea water, but Ma Xiaoyao can't catch them without tools.
It is impossible to catch fish in sea water without certain tools and techniques.
Drifting on the endless sea is a very painful thing. During the day, he is exposed to the scorching sun and at night, he is hit by the freezing cold wind. Ma Xiaoyao can endure both the exposure and the cold wind, but there is one thing he can't stand.
, that is loneliness! Boundless loneliness!
He had been drifting in the sea for several days without seeing a single person, as if he was the only one left in the world. This feeling of loneliness and helplessness almost made Ma Xiaoyao collapse.
Another day passed, and the leaves and rainwater stored by Ma Xiaoyao were finally eaten up. The land was still not found, and the ship was not seen. At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao's mood reached its peak. He knew that he was probably in danger.
Ma Xiaoyao had fantasized about death many times before, dying of illness or being killed by his enemies, but he never imagined that he would die of starvation or thirst, or die in this endless sea.
Ma Xiaoyao was lying on the tree trunk, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and he made a hoarse and unpleasant sound in his throat: "I'm so hungry... I'm so thirsty... I think I, Ma Xiaoyao, was so smart... but ended up like this in the end..."
"Rumble..."
When Ma Xiaoyao was dying, he suddenly heard a loud noise, like the sound of a moving freighter. Ma Xiaoyao's body was shaken. He tried to raise his head and saw a huge freighter driving diagonally opposite. Yes, that was it.
Freighter... Ma Xiaoyao was suddenly excited. He raised his arms and kept waving towards the freighter, calling for help in his throat...
The personnel on the freighter quickly discovered Ma Xiaoyao and immediately threw down the lifebuoy to rescue Ma Xiaoyao.
The moment he boarded the freighter, Ma Xiaoyao smiled. He knew that he was saved and that he did not have to die. At this moment, he felt that the sky was so blue and the sun was so dazzling...
Ma Xiaoyao borrowed a mobile phone from the freighter staff and tried to call Lei Dazhuang. Unexpectedly, Lei Dazhuang answered the phone quickly. Ma Xiaoyao finally felt relieved when he learned that Lei Dazhuang was safe and sound.
Ever since he was trapped in the sea, Ma Xiaoyao had been particularly worried about Lei Dazhuang, fearing that something might happen to Lei Dazhuang. Now that he was fine, Lei Dazhuang was fine, and Ma Xiaoyao could finally let go of his worries that had been hanging on him for many days.
