Chapter 4411 [Hidden Treasure]

Xiang Nan dealt with the former deputy sheriff, wiped out the big pirate Red Eye Sharlock, and returned the seized goods to the merchant ship...

His name spread all over the Caribbean. Citizens, merchant ships, and pirates all knew that a great sheriff had come to Port Royal.

Merchant ships rushed to Port Royal to do business, and the pirate ships that used to patrol near Port Royal immediately fled without a trace, for fear of accidentally running into Xiang Nan's gun.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about the public security in Port Royal in the short term.

Xiang Nan then secretly began his main business, which was to look for treasures, and for this he began to crack the secret of the "Mao Kun Picture".

According to the records in the "Pirates of the Caribbean Setting Collection", the "Mao Kun Map" was created by four unknown adventurers based on the "Zheng He Navigation Map" from the early Ming Dynasty, and they added information from other nautical charts.

It records information about almost all the seas, routes, treasures and lost cities in the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

But to interpret it, one must be proficient in the languages ​​of various countries, the divination techniques of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the Six Yaos, and the Eight Trigrams, as well as a wealth of navigation knowledge.

So even Xiao Feng, Barbossa, and Jack Sparrow were unable to fully unlock the secret of this nautical chart because they all lacked certain knowledge.

However, this nautical chart no longer has any secrets in front of Xiang Nan.

Not only did he inherit the secret agent skills of Jason Bourne, James Bond and others, but he also learned languages ​​from all over the world. He also inherited the tomb-robbing skills of Partridge Whistle, as well as the Qimen Dunjia of Huang Yaoshi, Xiaoyao Sect and Wuhen Gongzi.

Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the Six Yaos, the Eight Trigrams, these subjects seem confusing to outsiders, but to him, they are as simple as reading a book on the palm of your hand. Therefore, Xiang Nan quickly deciphered the "Mao Kun Diagram".

The information contained in "Mao Kun Tu" really opened Xiang Nan's eyes.

……

This nautical chart not only has routes to various parts of the world, but also routes to other worlds, such as the route to Davy Jones's prison, the route to the other side of the dead, and so on.

In the Age of Exploration, an undeveloped hidden route would bring considerable profits, because this trade route was completely monopolized by itself, and monopoly would inevitably generate huge profits.

Just based on these routes, the Mao Kun Map is priceless.

What's more, it also contains a lot of information about treasures, such as the treasure of Alexander the Great, the treasure of the Knights Templar, the treasure of King Arthur, the treasure of the Inca Golden City, Solomon's treasure, the treasure of the Mayan Kingdom, and so on.

In addition, there are some lost underwater cities, such as Troy, Amazon Island, Atlantis, etc.

These places were once prominent, possessing extremely high status, power and wealth, but then disappeared in the long river of history and are nowhere to be found. The "Mao Kun Map" can just guide Xiang Nan to find these hidden places.

At that time, Xiang Nan will not only be able to obtain huge amounts of wealth, but more importantly, he will gain more secret knowledge.

You know, there are real gods in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, not the "God of Death" in the world of Harry Potter, who only exists in legends, nor the ancient gods in the world of Ghost Blows Out the Light that are hard to find.

Therefore, in the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean", although the strength of the protagonists is very average and not much beyond that of ordinary people, the height of this world is far above "Harry Potter", Jin Yong martial arts, Gu Long martial arts, Wen Ruian martial arts, and Huang Yi martial arts (drama version).

And those hidden treasures and lost cities are often related to "God".

For example, the treasure of Alexander the Great. Legend has it that he was the son of Zeus and was born with thunder and lightning. And his mother was a witch with extraordinary powers.

Therefore, after Alexander the Great inherited the throne at the age of 20, he was able to sweep away all powerful enemies and establish a vast empire spanning Europe, Asia and Africa.

After his death, his empire collapsed. It is said that he hid all the looted wealth in a secret place. People have been searching for it for more than a thousand years, but they just can't find it. However, the Mao Kun Tu records the information of his treasure.

Another example is the ancient city of Atlantis, which was first recorded in the Greek philosopher Plato's work "Dialogues". Legend has it that the ancient city of Atlantis was founded by the sea god Poseidon, and it not only had huge wealth, but also had a developed civilization.

According to the Dialogues, in the city of Atlantis stood a temple dedicated to Poseidon, his wife and children, and the temple was decorated with gold, silver, ivory and other materials.

The energy supply of the whole city comes from a kind of "magnetite". It is said that this gem can convert sunlight into energy, which is very strange.

In addition, the weapons made by the Atlanteans are also very powerful. The Triton Sword used by Edward Teach, the Blackbeard, to control the ship in Pirates of the Caribbean 4 comes from the lost city-state of Atlantis.

But in the end, the Atlanteans were too extravagant and decadent, which incurred the dislike of Zeus, who punished them. Eventually, the entire city was submerged by floods, earthquakes occurred, and the city sank to the bottom of the sea and disappeared without a trace.

Countless people have tried to find the whereabouts of Atlantis throughout history, but to no avail. The location of Atlantis is recorded in the Mao Kun Tu.

……

Xiang Nan was very excited after cracking the "Mao Kun Map". He didn't expect that there would be so many hidden treasures. It really made him salivate and he wished he could go there immediately and take out all the treasures.

However, Xiang Nan knew that there were real gods in the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

For example, Quetzalcoatl who cursed the Aztec gold coins, Colypusso who was sealed by the nine pirate kings, and Poseidon who left his trident... In the official novel "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Price of Freedom", the lion god also appeared in Africa.

The abilities of these gods are often very strange. They may not appear and attack directly, but their curses are very evil.

The Quetzalcoatl god worshipped by the Incas did not show up to fight with the Spanish colonist Hernán Cortés when their country was conquered, but instead cursed him on the gold coins, cursing him to be immortal.

In the official novel "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Siren's Voice", Quetzalcoatl also cursed an unlucky man named Torrance, making him surrounded by storms wherever he went.
Calypso cursed Davy Jones to turn into seafood and lose his human appearance; the lion god can also curse that anyone who takes his treasure will die.

Therefore, Xiang Nan was not afraid of anything else, but was afraid of being cursed by God without knowing it, which would be a big trouble. So he planned to take some security measures for himself first.
