Chapter 297 Ehuang (4.4k)
"Cao Jinxing's injury is healed..."

On Peach Blossom Island, Huang Baiyuan, head of the Huang family, looked at the letter in his hand in disbelief: "How could it be so fast?!"

It's only three or four days, what can the Qin family dig up?
If you don't have any valuable treasures, and you throw them away as soon as an enemy comes, then tell the Fang family at this time, isn't it a free gift?

But if we don't say it now, with Cao Jinxing's participation, there is no guarantee that he won't see anything. How do we manage this time?

Huang Baiyuan had a headache for a while, and Gui Yihou and Qian Yusou couldn't think of a good solution, especially after reading the news above, Cao Jinxing destroyed so many weapons of the Gongshu family in front of the Fang family, even the helpless Xuan Tie of the Fang family. All the organs and beasts are still useless!

With such strength, even if you tell them, will they still attack the Qin family as expected?

Huang Baiyuan turned back and forth anxiously.

Once the Qin family gains power, it will inevitably squeeze the living space of the Huang family. This is a major event related to the survival of the family.

Qin Zhaonan was in seclusion, and it was when the Qin family was weak that Cao Jinxing, who was even more difficult to deal with, came along...

Could it be that they just watched them salvage the sunken ship?Unique treasure?
Wouldn't it be a waste of money to expedite the redemption of Siyuan's promise to them that the lion would open his mouth?

"The owner doesn't have to worry."

Qianyusou comforted: "The salvage of the Qin family is not going well. There are many traps on the sunken ship. According to the information obtained by the spies, they have already killed more than a dozen good hands. They have gold mountains but can't take a catty or two. They It will only be more worrying than us."

"Yes, Patriarch."

Gui Yihou said: "There are no masters in Donghai who are good at mechanics. Even if there were, the Qin family would not dare to invite them rashly. It is hard to guarantee that the person will not have a wrong heart. Now Cao Jinxing has provoked the public loser again, and he will die. For the shipwreck, the Qin family may have to kill how many lives, we can wait until there is a real treasure in the world before revealing it, Cao Jinxing will not live in the East China Sea for a long time, and the Qin family may not be able to defend it."

"..."

Huang Baiyuan pondered for a moment, his words were indeed justified.

Trick skills cannot be learned overnight, if the Qin family can't invite capable people, they will have to spend their lives to fill them.

The better the shipwreck treasure and the more complicated the mechanism, the more people will lose their lives!

No family can resist such a death. The Qin family is betting that the treasures in the boat are enough to pay such a high price.

"Send more people to keep an eye on Cangming Island."

"Yes."

……

Qin Xuanque was really worried.

Four more people died because of mining the Yuzhang building ship, and this has not yet reached the main cabin designed for Emperor Wu's travel, it is just an auxiliary cabin for the entourage, and they don't know what's in it, just entered the door, and they are already dead Thirteen people!
lost heavily.

These people's funeral affairs and pensions have to be done to stabilize other people, but even so, the enthusiasm for mining Yuzhang is still getting worse day by day.

Gradually, it has reached the point where everyone is talking about the ship, and no one will dare to enter the ship unless someone who can crack the mechanism is invited.

Qin Xuanque sighed deeply.

"Miss."

A servant walked quickly into the lobby of the Qin family, and said to Qin Xuanque and Shi Yi: "Missy, the second island owner, and the fourth island owner sent back a message: 'Mu Langjun' is in Nanyang, so he can't come..."

"understood."

Qin Xuanque sighed again: "Go down."

"Yes."

The servant bent over and walked slowly out of the lobby.

"Are there any other mechanics?"

Qin Xuanque put his hands on his temples, and said: "'Little Zhuge' and 'Guan Toutuo' are far away in the northwest of the Central Plains, and 'Mu Langjun' is in Nanyang...It's a coincidence that Donghai can be trusted and has a good knowledge of mechanism techniques All the people here are gone, so what should we do? It will be the end of the month soon, and the 'underworld vortex' will rise on Cangming Island. At that time, it may be difficult to even go into the sea, let alone crack the mechanism technique, alas..."

Qin Xuanque's heart was anxious.

Shi Yi smiled wryly, and took out a letter: "Look at this again..."

Qin Xuanque took the paper and glanced at it briefly. While surprised, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Cao Jinxing's injury has been healed earlier, which is a great thing, but it has provoked the public loser, which..."

She shook her head again and again, public losers have a great say in the circle of mechanism engineers, just a few words of advice and throwing out two mechanisms can benefit other mechanism engineers a lot.

The residence of the Gongshu family is to the mechanism division, just like the Imperial College is to the students, it is simply a holy place in their minds!

There is no need for public losers to explain it specifically. Once they know about it, it will be even more difficult for other mechanism divisions to avoid suspicion.

"Can I just give up?"

Qin Xuanque was full of unwillingness.

"I'm afraid it won't be long..."

Shi Yi shook his head and said: "Last time, people from the Huang family pretended to be pirates and snatched a bottle of [Real Life Pill] with the old Siqiang. It was clear that it was premeditated. Maybe they have heard some rumors during this time, don't be fooled. Look at [Seven Colored Koi]; besides, Cangming Island is not monolithic, and it is almost the end of the month, and there are internal and external troubles, I am afraid, I really have to stop..."

"Then..."

Qin Xuanque made a decisive decision. He was about to rest for a while, and wait until the end of the month to talk about it, so he could use this time to hurry up and invite a reliable mechanism engineer... Before he could finish speaking, a voice came from the courtyard outside the lobby:
"No need."

As the words fell, Cao Jinxing and Qin Xuanji jumped down first, followed by Xuanyuan Shishi, Bi Fang, Xiang Jun, and the numb Gong Shuyi in Xiang Jun's hand.

Qin Xuanque and Shi Yi looked out the door.

The group walked into the lobby.

Cao Jinxing said with a smile, "I have someone who can help." His mind moved, and Lord Xiang raised his hand to push Gong Shuyi in.

Gong Shuyi's face was numb and indifferent.

Shi Yi took a closer look and said in surprise, "The young master of the public loser? This...how did he..."

"Borrowed from a public loser."

Cao Jinxing said casually: "I'm afraid that he will be dishonest, so use the mind-stimulating technique to control him first, and you can let him crack the mechanism. He is a rare genius among public losers. He must know his own mechanism very well, so he should be able to help.

Don't worry about him leaking the secret, this person is not good enough to defeat my mind control technique.Without my permission, even Gong Shulun don't want him to reveal a single word! "

"..."

This is not a loan, it is clearly a robbery.

But, grab it well!

Qin Xuanque and Shi Yi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. How could Donghai's mechanism master compare to the successor of the public loser, and he was the most talented one among the successors. With him, there is nothing wrong with it!
Unexpectedly, Cao Jinxing was able to capture even the young master who was regarded as a treasure by the public loser...

"Thank you, Mr. Cao."

Shi Yi solemnly clasped his fists and saluted.

Qin Xuanque followed Fushen to salute, and said: "It's not too late, Cangming Island's 'Underwater Whirlpool' is about to rise, Second Uncle, I will trouble you to go there, take this young master Gongshu over, and get the things in the core cabin as soon as possible." Bring it back..." After a pause, she continued: "For the salvaged items, please ask Mr. Cao to choose ten items at will."

"it is good."

Without any hesitation, Shi Yi saluted Cao Jinxing and walked towards Gongshuyi.

Cao Jinxing added another psychological hint to Gong Shuyi, asking him to obey Shi Yi's order, watch the two leave, then look back at Qin Xuanque, and said, "You don't need anything, it's easy to do. However, I have a question, What is this 'underworld vortex'?"

"It's a natural phenomenon of Cangming Island."

Qin Xuanji interjected: "The tides of the islands in the East China Sea have always been very regular. During the new moon or full moon, that is, at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, there will be high tides; The tidal changes are particularly large. Every two days at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, when the tide rises, an undercurrent gushes out from under the island, forming a huge vortex on the sea surface! The water in the vortex is so heavy that it is impossible to sail a boat, and sailing in the vortex , like thousands of water ghosts dragging down the bottom of the boat, so the islanders call this undercurrent 'Underwater', and the vortex it forms becomes 'Underwater Whirlpool'..."

"Yes."

Qin Xuanque added: "The ship in Yuzhang probably sank because of the dark water. In the past few days, a lot of domineering mechanism weapons of public losers have been mined. Although they are not as good as the Vulcan cannon, they are also the leading killer weapons in Han Dynasty. Sea beasts It must be impossible to resist. The reason for sinking the fully armed Yuzhang building ship can only be caused by Mingshui..."

"Or, it's a divine beast..."

Cao Jinxing murmured and said, "Didn't you find out the source of that undercurrent?"

Qin Xuanque shook his head: "The underworld water is extremely heavy. Where the vortex forms, ships cannot sail, and people cannot touch it. Once caught in the vortex, at least it will be dragged into the depths of the sea by the undercurrent, drowning, and at worst, it will be on the spot. He was strangled and dismembered, with no place to bury him!"

"..."

Cao Jinxing frowned and pondered, the tide...undercurrent...

It sounds like there are traces to follow, but I always feel that something is going on here...

Forget it.

Cao Jinxing didn't bother to delve into it. Anyway, the tool man had already arrived, and he got a lot of favorability. He left directly and was about to go back to the Tunyuntulou Tower to consolidate his realm. Qin Xuanque said, "Wait a minute", took out a letter from his sleeve, Handed it to him: "This is a secret letter sent by the Central Plains Chamber of Commerce yesterday. Although it came through the news channel of Wuliu Island, it is for you."

"For me?"

Cao Jinxing raised his eyebrows, took a look at the letter, and found that it was really "Passed by Cao Jinxing himself".

It looks a bit like my brother's handwriting.

Qin Xuanque said: "I haven't read this letter. I wanted to order someone to send it to Wojiao Island yesterday and hand it over to you, but I was worried that our people going to the island would leak the news and reveal your identities, so... ..."

"It's okay."

Cao Jinxing tore open the envelope, pulled out the letter, and read it.

It's really a letter from my brother.

The letter was very long, with five or six pages. Cao Jinxing confirmed that it was written by Liu Zhenyuan, so he was going to go back to Tunyuntuwulou to read slowly, and said goodbye.

Qin Xuanji walked together with his arms around him naturally, the corners of Qin Xuanque's eyes twitched, but he didn't stop him...

Go back to the Swallowing Cloud Building.

Qin Xuanji ordered his servants to prepare food and drinks, Cao Jinxing sat on the futon, took out the letter and read it.

Xuanyuan Fourteen was lying beside him, Bi Fang was standing on his shoulders, and Jun Xiang was guarding the door like a door god...

Qin Xuanji took the futon and sat next to him, peeking at the letter paper from time to time, afraid of being discovered, with an appearance of sitting upright.

Cao Jinxing couldn't help laughing, and hugged her: "Look at it if you want, what are you afraid of."

Qin Xuanji leaned on his chest, blushed a little, and whispered: "Is Master Liu urging you to go back?"

"Ah."

Cao Jinxing nodded and said: "But there is no rush. Except for some major events that happened in the capital recently, I was asked to go back as soon as possible after recuperating. Firstly, for the reward of the Taizhou battle, secondly... there are some things I want to discuss with me."

"thing?"

Qin Xuanji was taken aback: "What's the matter?"

"It wasn't mentioned in the letter, so it's probably not a big deal."

Cao Jinxing said: "When I write a letter to send Yinghuo to the capital, ask carefully."

"Um……"

Qin Xuanji nodded.

If it's really a big deal, it won't go through the channel of Wuliu Island and go through the hands of many people.

There are many more secretive and efficient methods for the Zhen Fusi to deliver the letter.

Qin Xuanji hesitated: "Then... when will you go back?"

Cao Jinxing said: "I have to see your father anyway, and tell us about our affairs, otherwise I won't be at ease when I go back... What if they beat the mandarin ducks? If I leave, what if you can't stand it?"

Cao Jinxing couldn't help laughing.

"I can."

Qin Xuanji sat up straight, looked at him seriously and said, "I can definitely do it!"

——The unbearable subtext is to be forced to marry someone else, Qin Xuanji has never considered this issue.

"..."

Seeing that flawless pretty face and her resolute look, Cao Jinxing felt a hot flash in his heart, and stretched out his hand to embrace her in his arms.

"I know you can, but you don't have to push it. I'll do it."

……

late at night.

The crescent moon hangs high and the sea breeze blows.

There are many foreign merchant ships on Cangming Island, with masts in groups, and they are all cleaned up!
Cangming Island is located in the southeast of the East China Sea Islands, with a large overall area, second only to Penglai, Taohua and Wuliu Islands in the East China Sea.

However, because of the high mountains on the island, there are no special products, and the geographical location is relatively remote, it has been ignored until the sunken ship was excavated this time.

On the bottom of Cangming Island, the Yuzhanglou ship was still quietly inserted in the bottomless trench, surrounded by black holes, giving off a sense of horror and gloom.

The captain is sixty feet long, fifteen feet high, and has four floors, which is extremely magnificent!
At this moment, outside the building boat, there are experts around, and inside the building boat, the atmosphere is dignified—the three island owners, including Si Yi, are following Gong Shuyi and slowly swimming up to the second floor through the big hole opened up. , came to the auxiliary cabin which is second only to the main cabin in luxury.

Yang Jingchen, the owner of the three islands, clenched his spear tightly.

Mao Jiahe, the owner of the four islands, put on his gloves.

——This cabin looks luxurious, but in fact it can eat people without spit out bones, so we must be prepared for it.

Shi Yi entered the ship for the first time, even with his experience, he couldn't help being surprised when he saw the glowing night pearls inside and outside the cabin on the second floor.

What a luxurious cabin!

Is this level only the auxiliary cabin?What kind of regulations should the main cabin be?
The three stopped at the cabin door.

Gongshuyi swam straight in.

After all, he is the direct descendant of the Gongshu family, and he is familiar with all kinds of traps set up by his family. Facing the old layout from more than 1000 years ago, Gongshuyi seems very relaxed and capable.

Throwing a stone here, knocking down a wooden board there...just a simple test, all kinds of hidden mechanisms in the cabin are activated, poisonous arrows, ground spikes, traps, flying needles...the sound of various mechanisms starting one after another, click Kaka, murderous aura overflowing!
"..."

The three island owners watched with horror from behind!
If you try this one by one, I am afraid that hundreds of people will die...

After a while, the entire cabin was filled with all kinds of messy sharp weapons. Looking around, up and down, swords, swords and shadows, it was very cold.

When Gong Shuyi was almost done with it, Shi Yi led the way, and the three of them carefully circumvented various traps and swam to the innermost part of the cabin.

Then, they saw an ice coffin.

The heart of the three twitched!
A coffin suddenly appeared in the gloomy and green cabin illuminated by the night pearl, which added a bit of weirdness.

No wonder the sea water is so gloomy and cold, there is actually an ice coffin made of thousands of years of black ice here!

After Shi Yi asked Gong Shuyi and confirmed that there were no traps inside and outside the coffin, he, together with Yang Jingchen and Mao Jiahe, pushed open the coffin lid.

In the coffin lies a woman.

The skin is snow-white, the facial features are picturesque, glamorous and moving.

The three were stunned.

Suddenly, after the sea water poured into the ice coffin and covered the woman's body, the woman's legs turned into fish tails by themselves - she is a mermaid!

The originally closed eyes suddenly opened, releasing a cold blue light!

Bang, bang, bang...

The heart that had been silent for thousands of years began to beat faster and faster. The woman rolled her eyes and looked at the four of them with a sudden burst of killing intent.

The faces of the four of them changed drastically!

"Not good! Hurry up!"

 The relatives are here (real relatives, the kind of relatives of the seven aunts and the eight aunts, who eat, play, and chat with me. I am a man, why am I still drawing the bottom line?)... This chapter is late.
