In a flash of golden light, Chen Yan was already in front of Yang Zongyue.
"Lord City Lord, Wan...Gululu..." As soon as Yang Zongyue opened his mouth, bubbles started to bubble out of his mouth.
However, Chen Yan knew that he did it on purpose, because the heroic spirit was an energy body like him and would spit out hairy bubbles if he couldn't eat or drink.
So he sneered and said, "You are really capable. How did you discover this ship?"
hey-hey!
Yang Zongyue laughed, "Returning to the Lord of the City, I followed a monster to the seaside, and then the beast plunged into the sea, and I followed him into the sea. As a result, I didn't find the monster, but found this ship. Ship. No, I'm busy helping you examine it carefully."
"Help me do some research?" Chen Yan also smiled, "Tell me, what did you find out after all the research?"
Yang Zongyue handed a skull in his hand to Chen Yan, and the smile on his face had completely disappeared, "This is the skull of an evil spirit."
Chen Yan was stunned.
Because he had already seen the skull before coming here, and now that he was so close, he could see it more clearly.
Isn't this just an ordinary human skull? How could it be...
etc!
Why is this skull black?
Yes, he originally thought that the skull turned black because it had been soaked in sea water for too long, or if there was some dirt attached to it.
But now I look closely and find that the surface is extremely smooth, so it is purely the original color of the skull.
"The bones of all evil spirits are black. This is the biggest difference between them and humans." Yang Zongyue pursed his lips in a corner, "There is a skeleton over there, also black."
Chen Yan turned around and looked, and sure enough, he saw a dark skeleton sitting in the corner of the cabin, with all hands and feet, except for his head.
Well, the head is in Yang Zongyue's hands.
"I have seen the entire ship, and there is only this skeleton. But there must have been a lot of evil spirits on the ship, and it also experienced a fierce naval battle.
Because traces of being hit by cannonballs can be seen everywhere on the ship, based on my not very professional archaeological knowledge analysis, it should be solid shells. In other words, the industrial level of both sides was still very low at that time, and bows, arrows, swords and guns were the main means of trouble. Assault weapons.
The reason why this skeleton can be preserved is that it died in the cabin and then sank into the sea with the ship."
Chen Yan understood what he meant. If it hadn't sunk into the sea, it might have disappeared long ago.
But the real reason is not this.
As the city lord, Chen Yan can see through any new discoveries at a glance.
So he now knows that this was a deliberately left clue.
He didn't know who kept it.
Maybe it was the female city lord, or maybe someone else.
At this moment, his body swayed and he had reached the deck of the sunken ship. Then he waved his right hand and the ship's navigation route was revealed in the water.
But it was only a few kilometers away, and then it was gone.
Yes, no matter how far it is, it will be beyond the jurisdiction of the city lord, so the power of the city lord can no longer be extended.
But the direction is determined - north!
In a flash of golden light, Chen Yan came to the sea.
Looking to the north, nothing can be seen except the vast expanse of sea water.
In fact, this is the first time he has set foot in this sea area in sixteen years.
Because no subordinate has ever run so far before.
Of course, Yang Zongyue can only swim here, because once he goes beyond the jurisdiction of the city lord, all his abilities will be lost.
It is not possible to drown, but it is entirely possible to be washed away by ocean currents to Java.
So this guy was actually very cautious and didn't dare to continue exploring.
Uproar!
I heard the sound of water splashing in my ears, and when I lowered my head, I saw Yang Zongyue coming out.
"Where did you find the monster you were chasing before?" Chen Yan asked.
"In a river not far from the seaside, this thing was very big. It looked like a hippopotamus. I couldn't kill it with a hammer, and then it ran all the way into the sea."
"Then you keep guarding by the river. Sooner or later it will appear again. If you kill it, it will drop an atlas. Keep it carefully."
"As you command!"
Whoosh!
Chen Yan's figure flashed and he came to the door of Liuji Gaozhuang Steamed Bun Shop in Dawangcheng.
The boss was selling steamed buns when he suddenly saw the city lord arriving and hurriedly came to pay his respects. Chen Yan held him up with his hands and said with a smile: "I bought two steamed buns today. Can I... keep the account?"
"Yes!" The boss originally wanted to give it to me for free, but since he said to keep accounts, let's keep accounts. Money doesn't come with strong winds.
Yes, money does not come from the strong wind. Even the city lord has to give money honestly instead of turning two copper coins out of thin air.
Although Chen Yan can do it, he will never do it.
Because maintaining the original ecological financial system is the basic ethics of the city owner.
Don't underestimate the addition of two copper plates, they are the two wings of a butterfly and will eventually form a storm.
"Thank you very much, boss." Chen Yan said, cupping his fists.
"Lord City Lord, you are so polite. To tell you the truth, ever since I bought the steamed buns from you, the business has been booming. Now I sell more than twice as many steamed buns every day as before, so I thank you. It’s too late.”
While talking, the boss handed over two Gaozhuang steamed buns.
Chen Yan took it with both hands, thanked him again, and then disappeared.
Come to the river where you were last time, lift up the river bed and enter the ruins.
Standing in front of the third underground door of the city main hall, he placed the two steamed buns in place, and then floated in quietly.
From a distance, I could see the light of the oil lamp flickering in the secret room.
Looking a little closer, I found that the young Dong tribe guy from last time was still on duty.
It was already evening time there, so the young man seemed to be dozing off.
Chen Yan floated in front of the mirror and still didn't raise his head.
Tuk Tuk!
Chen Yan tapped the mirror twice with his hand.
The young man didn't respond.
Tuk Tuk!
Knocked twice more.
Still didn't wake up.
Chen Yan gritted his teeth and kicked his foot.
Boom!
The dull voice suddenly woke the young man up.
He looked up and immediately turned around to run, but was stopped by Chen Yan.
Well, Chen Yan shook his hand and then made a gesture to sit down.
The young man was stunned and sat back on the futon obediently.
Chen Yan looked at the Otto's teachings on the altar table, pointed with his finger, and motioned for the young man to pick it up.
The young man immediately complied.
Then, Chen Yan put his finger on his mouth and made a "reading" motion.
The young man was very smart. He opened his mouth and read loudly: "Lawful, kind, equal..."
Depend on!
This guy actually spoke Dong tribe language.
Chen Yan quickly knocked on the mirror and shook his hand.
Plop!
The young man knelt down, kowtowed repeatedly, and said: "Damn it, little one. He forgets to speak Otu when he gets nervous. Damn him, he doesn't dare to do it anymore..."
Well, this time I spoke in Otu.
Chen Yan knocked on the mirror again, and when he raised his head, he made a gesture to continue reading.
"Law, kindness, equality, fraternity..." the young man read in Otu language with a fairly steady rhythm.
This book on Otto's teachings is very thick, and it takes almost a few hours to read it all.
But Chen Yan decided to listen from beginning to end, and would listen every day until he completely mastered the language.
