endless route.

Chapter 182 21.W-07 Eight Cave Abyss

Kedester sent many messages. The situation is probably that Kedester used some special methods to obtain the detailed itinerary information of Jiasi Aileen through her daughter.

It seems that it is a rule of inheritance tax. Kedester's daughter wanted to inherit the inheritance and went to find someone through the tax department.

In short, the clues they got were:

Jias Eileen went to W-07 last year. According to the information found so far, there were only two people traveling with her. One of them should be a famous explorer, and the other's name is female. It is not sure if there are other teammates.

Their ship goes directly to W-07, an island in the East China Sea.

The special thing about W-07 is that it is a planet with no seasons, maintains livable temperatures all year round, and is very rich in mines. It is one of the few metal-rich planets on the endless route and was discovered as early as the colonial era.

In other words, this planet is the real home of gold diggers. Its existence greatly promoted the gold rush era, and the passage of a large number of ships also ignited the piracy craze.

There are many pirate treasures in the extreme cold glacier of W-08, and most of those treasures were stolen from W-07.

Because of its rich mines, this planet is ahead of other planets in terms of development, but the situation is also extremely complicated.

Jias Eileen's destination is in a sea area called the East China Sea, near the secondary route of W-07.

Following this clue, Kedester chased him all the way to the target island. After local investigation, he learned that after landing on the island, Jiasi Irene and others carried diving equipment out to sea more than a dozen times within six months. Apparently, they were on the island. Search for shipwrecks.

W-07 has a special environment. The number and density of sunken ships on the seabed are relatively high, and many explorers will salvage sunken ships.

Especially after the mines were controlled by the state and the early gold mining families, salvaging sunken ships became a new age gold rush.

Gold is always valuable, and if you are lucky enough to find an early gold-mining bank ship, you will make a fortune.

So it's not surprising.

Rich people can also have fun.

According to Kedester's investigation, the number of people and team members involved in the dozen or so voyages that Garth Erin went to sea has been changing. The highest number was more than 30 people, and the lowest number was only six or seven people.

Except for the five more fixed names, the rest may be fellow explorers found locally.

Add up a total of more than 90 people.

There's a lot of detail to dig into on this list.

But when Kedester tried to find these team members to investigate the situation, he found that all of them were missing.

Including Jiasi Irene herself, she also disappeared after going to sea on the 13th time and completely disappeared from the list of sea voyages.

But after that, the team also went to sea No. 14 and No. 15. It was not until the last sea voyage that all ninety people on the list were heard from.

They disappear into society.

Completely missing in every aspect.

The only clues that Kedester could find were the number of people and their names who went to sea, but not the list of names when they returned.

Therefore, Kedester could not determine whether the location of these people's disappearance was at sea or on an island, and he was also unable to determine whether the reason for their disappearance was because they were shipwrecked at sea.

There are several guesses here.

One is that they died during salvage.

The second is that they died due to some kind of internal fighting.

There are many speculations in other directions.

If he had to choose the cause of death, Zheng Yun preferred the first one, because there was something strange about the shipwreck. However, Kedester firmly believed that Jia Si Aileen was a bitch and she might kill her teammates, so he believed that Jia Si Aileen was a bitch. Silein killed people.

But no matter what.

Jiasi Irene has disappeared, and everyone else on the list has also disappeared. Everyone in the West Factory investigated separately on the island, but could not find any clues to prove that they were still alive.

Therefore, Kedester believes that Garth Irene may have died. The logical basis is that No. 14 and No. 15 went to sea. If Garth Irene was alive, she would not be missing from the list.

When talking about this, Li Xiya intervened in the topic and expressed her speculation to Zheng Yun, which came from another angle.

She wasn't sure if the men died.

But she was basically certain that the ninety people on the list had never left W-07, or even the sea. At most, they had gone to an island.

"You sent me the location of the island. By the way, do you think it is possible for a fairy gate to exist in this sea area?"

Zheng Yun asked after thinking for a while.

Ninety people went out to sea a total of fifteen times, and the team members disappeared one by one. Summing up these clues, Zheng Yun's first reaction was, did they leave from the Immortal Sect?
This question should have been asked to himself, but Tiangong didn't even know the door to the Immortal Sacrifice Cave. If there was a special door under the sea in this place, he probably wouldn't be able to find the answer.

In addition, this incident happened last year, when the adoptive father was seriously ill, and it was impossible for the adoptive father to leave any clues.

Fortunately, he also has a picture of the Immortal Mansion.

You can take a look at the Immortal Mansion Map.

At present, Kedster has not yet determined which sea area the Garth Irene team went to after going to sea, and they have not found their location. They will find it after they determine the area.

After asking this question, Zheng Yun put down his cell phone and looked up outside the pawn shop. It was already evening, and the shops along Jinhuai Road had all their advertising lights on.

The gentle wind blows through the old street.

The locust tree sounded the sound of salsa.

The smell of smoke rises from the barbecue restaurant across the street, and the aroma of various snacks lingers. Pedestrians stroll leisurely on the street, their figures illuminated by light signs. The pace of life is slow and peaceful.

Stared at it for a long time.

Zheng Yun lay on the wicker chair and sighed softly, turning his head to look beside him. Li Huawan was chewing a piece of corn and watching a TV series.

She was quite comfortable.

It's purely a mascot.

"Master Xian, Ergou came over just now and said that Fatty Ji wanted to eat barbecue. I asked Master Xian if you would buy it for him?"

Li Huawan asked in a gentle voice.

"..." Zheng Yun was stunned for a moment, why were they all careless, as if he wouldn't let him eat, and he had to perform meritorious service before he could claim the reward, and what he wanted was a crappy barbecue.

What's so delicious about this thing?

Can't you bake it yourself in Tiangong?

After sighing again, Zheng Yun handed her his mobile phone: "Eat whatever you want. Just use your phone to order. If you want to eat, you can also order some yourself."

when speaking.

Zheng Yun also glanced at her.

Li Huawan's voice is quite pleasant, with a kind of ancient elegance, but her phrase "Er Gou" still makes people complain.

Zhang Ergou is in her forties after all, but Li Huawan calls her an Ergou, and she doesn't respect Ji Dao very much, so she usually calls him Fatty Ji.

Ji Dao is never annoyed.

Just a little aggrieved occasionally.

"I don't want to eat. I only eat vegetables now." Li Huawan shook her head, picked up Zheng Yun's phone and started ordering.

Zheng Yun glanced at her. Her figure was almost the same as when she first came out. He vaguely remembered that in the beginning she ate Malatang every day and used hot pot ingredients to cook on her phone. Now she only eats vegetables. She doesn't know why.

It doesn't matter.

Now just wait for Kedester's reply.

Everyone in the West Factory is at W-07 at the moment. To communicate with each other, they must use signal ships to physically send messages through the foggy sea. It will take at least ten hours to send the message back to W-02.

In other words, the information sent back by Kedester was actually sent by him ten hours ago, and it would take ten hours to send his question.

If you wait for Kedester to reply, it will be twenty hours later. Even if you pay to expedite it, it will take ten hours.

So Zheng Yun is not in a hurry.

Even if you are anxious, you have to wait.

There is a quick way. He can take his mobile phone and go through the fairy gate of the secret realm, go to the Dusi Relics Museum in W-07, squat in the exhibition cabinet, and communicate with Kedster.

It will be much faster.

But that image was outrageous.Who would venture into a museum display case just to send a text message?Who would believe this reason?The police would just look at him quietly and let him continue making up his story.

Moreover, a casual search on my mobile phone revealed that it is daytime at W-07 and the museum should not be closed yet. If I go there now, it will be exhibited together with the cultural relics.

Still too outrageous.

There is no need to do this for the time being. Let's consider it when the situation becomes urgent. The clues there are just strange, but they are not very important and there is no need to take risks.

"It's ready."

Li Huawan returned the phone.

Zheng Yun glanced at it casually. She only ordered a few skewers for Ji Dao, and the total cost was 20 yuan.

She's quite nice.

Know how to save yourself money.

But where should the Master of the Immortal Supervisor put his face? This 20-yuan string had to go through the hands of Zhang Ergou, who was sent as an interstellar delivery boy from the pawn shop to the Tiangong Alchemy Pavilion.

Everyone can see it along the way.

Their Lord Ji, who rules the Heavenly Palace, wants to eat barbecue, so Master Xian buys him a few sticks across the endless starry sky.

This is indeed a bit excessive.

A rough calculation shows that the Jianxian Division has spent all its cash. In addition to the treatment fee for Jiang Meng, there is still about three million in the account, all of which are dirty money from Qianxian Dojo.

Money does go a little fast.

Everything costs money.

After spending these 300 million, we will have no money. We have to find a way to go out and make some money back so that Jianxian Division can continue to develop.

"Ugh."

Zheng Yun sighed again. Although he was under great financial pressure, he still had to order what he had to order, so he picked up his phone and ordered a barbecue worth several thousand yuan. At least everyone could have a taste.

Ji Dao this guy.

Hope his Dan is worth the barbecue.

After ordering, Zheng Yun lay on the wicker chair, quietly watching the bustling streets outside, the sound of fireworks in the city mixed with the sound of the TV series in Li Huawan's hand, which made people feel relaxed.

The pawn shop is out of business.

No lights on the facade were turned on.

Even the lights were not turned on in the store, and the street lights cast a warm yellow color, which had a very obvious sleep-promoting effect.

Sitting here, it seems that I have returned to a night ten years ago, when I finished my homework and showed my adoptive father to the pawn shop. Jiang Meng sat on a small stool and watched cartoons, carefree...

Lie down.

Zheng Yun slowly fell asleep.

I don’t know how much time passed, but a sound of calling came to my ears. When I opened my eyes, I saw it was Li Huawan:

"Master Xian, I received a text message from my phone."

Zheng Yun rubbed his forehead and picked up his phone and took a look. It was already past one o'clock. Only convenience stores, fast food restaurants and barbecue restaurants were still open on Jinhuai Road, and there were fewer passers-by on the street.

Turn on your phone and look.

Kedester wrote back.

Only six hours have passed, this message is not a reply to their own question, but they have discovered something.

Take a rough look.

Kedester said they found another clue. At the beginning of this year, someone landed on an island while out at sea, and there were traces of life left by the salvage team on the island.

Several bodies were also found.

The deceased was a teammate of Jiasi Erin.

Based on this clue, they could determine that this island was a transit island for the salvage team, and they could narrow down the scope of activities of Jiasi Irene and others and have a specific direction.

At present, they have gone to sea and plan to visit this island. At the same time, they also sent the location of the island.

Zheng Yun clicked on the map and took a look.

Note down the general shape of the continental shelf.

Then exit the map and open the photo of the Immortal Palace map, and look for similar continental terrain in the W-07 area.

This job is hard to do.

When he was near the town of La Maine, he searched for several hours before he found it. Because the Immortal Palace Map was very old and the survey methods of ancient and modern times were completely different, the shape of the continental coast depicted was slightly different from the current one.

In addition, there is too much content on the fairy mansion map. There are gods, gods, monsters and everything. The heaven, materials, earth treasures, gods and ghosts are all covered with large small characters, crowded into a small blank area.

Especially W-07.

Gu Dongfang also knew that this place was rich in mines, and Zheng Yun saw that there were dense records and annotations at a glance.

Find it slowly.

I guess it will take some time to find.

After a while, Zhang Ergou came from behind, he came to close the shop, saw Zheng Yun busy at his desk, and Li Huawan didn't intend to go back to Tiangong, so he quietly retreated.

Finally around two o'clock.

Zheng Yun roughly found several similar places. The Immortal Mansion Map did not depict these small islands. He locked on a sea the size of a fingernail purely through blind guessing of proportions.

There is only one legend here.

There is a place in the center of this sea area called Bakuyuan. There are eight interconnected underwater caves on the seabed. According to legend, in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, when a boat master passed by here, he was sucked in by the sea cave, and the entire boat crew disappeared without a trace. .

Later, the matter was reported back to Triton, who sent people to investigate. When they went there for the first time, they found eight caves on the seabed. When they went there for the second time, only six of the eight caves remained.

The depth of the sea is only about a hundred feet, but these seabed caves are like an undersea maze, entangled and surrounded by each other. In the deepest place, a rope tied to a boulder can penetrate [-] feet.

That's it.

Two very simple paragraphs.

Zheng Yun did a rough calculation. In the Ming Dynasty, one foot was 32 centimeters, and 500 feet was [-] meters.

In other words, the average water depth in this place is more than 30 meters, but there are several caves as deep as 6000 meters.

In fact, this record is not the usual dangerous place of ghosts and ghosts. It is just a geographical record. Because a boatman disappeared and sank here, it was recorded by the sea guards.

In one's own perspective.

The Ming Dynasty's fleet sank every day.

It either sinks here or there.

But objectively speaking, the sinking of the entire fleet was considered a big event in the Ming Dynasty. In fact, this situation rarely happened, and even if it was bad, one or two ships would escape.

The last time I heard the word "sunken" was when I was diving into the strait. Thick fog covered the sky, endless sea monsters sneak attacks, the sound of "Xun" was heard all over the sea, and the sea guards fought the sea monsters at night.

The sinking of the captain was a big deal, but this time it was just because of a few holes, and Triton didn't seem to find the reason.

This matter cannot be underestimated.

Triton often hides his secrets, and the Immortal Mansion Map cannot remember what happened after it was completed.

This was the case in Jihanxianzhou before.

The Immortal Mansion Map does record the Hanxian Cave and the Earthly Aperture, which are just records like the underwater cave this time, but the Immortal Mansion Map does not record subsequent events for some reason.

No one thought of it.

Haiwei actually used the Hanxian Cave and the Earthly Aperture to create a Immortal Sacrifice Cave to control the Hanxian, and it worked.

After learning from the past, Zheng Yun is still not sure whether the Bakuyuan has also been transformed by Haiwei?
