Chapter 694 Accident Possible

Chapter 694 Accident Possible
Unfortunately, after two days of searching on the island, nothing was found. Now even Margaret became impatient.

Not to mention that Philips is not a patient person to begin with.

Not only did he become grumpy, but Chu Qianqian also looked suspicious.

Fortunately, the four bodyguards were relatively calm. Although Norton was also very irritable and lacked confidence, he did not blame Chu Xiangqian.

Otherwise, Chu Xiangqian would not put himself in danger.

Since he deliberately brought Philip and others to the Twin Islands, Chu Xiangqian had naturally been mentally prepared and had taken precautions.

As for what Philips was thinking, Chu Xiangqian knew it clearly.

It was nothing more than suspicion that he had brought them to the Twin Islands just for show, using their words to deny the authenticity of this treasure.

Wait a few years and come back to find the treasure to yourself.

Fortunately, Margaret really and without a doubt stood by her man's side.

To be honest, Chu Qianqian was still a little moved.

We have known each other for more than ten years. Unexpectedly, this girl would stand by him without any hesitation.

After all, Philips is his brother-in-law.

If it were me, I wouldn't hide the treasure here. Just in case you go to the island out of curiosity and stumble upon a treasure. "

Margaret frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded quickly, it was indeed possible.

Even if she couldn't find her, Chu Qianqian's presence wouldn't stop her from continuing to live a luxurious life.

"Since the purpose of this island is, it is most likely a coordinate. In case the person hiding the treasure cannot find the treasure himself.

Then the location of the real treasure should not be far away. It's nothing more than searching the surrounding islands, and we should be able to find clues quickly. "

The next morning, when everyone was having breakfast together, Margaret took the initiative to explain, and Philip and others also became excited again.
-
It took another two days, first searching two desert islands, but again nothing was found.

If you really can’t find it, return early.

After hearing this, Margaret felt it made sense.

There is joy in finding treasure.

But within a few seconds, he frowned and muttered, "If it wasn't this island, where would the treasure be?"

Although Chu Xiangqian knew that Margaret had true feelings for him for a long time, he was a little surprised that this woman would do it for him, and even Philips began to doubt and be on guard.

He hugged Margaret and whispered, "Don't worry, I actually suspected from the beginning that this twin island is not the location of the treasure."

Then while resting at night, Chu Qianqian was reminded repeatedly to be careful of Philips and the others.

Margaret was stunned for a moment before hearing Chu Qianqian continue, "Although this island looks very small in the sea, it is too strange and attractive to the passing ships.

And every time she found Philip looking at Chu Qianqian with an unkind look, Margaret would glare back viciously.

Love-minded women are not all bad. At least when faced with a choice, they will stand firmly on their man's side.

Chu Xiangqian knew the result, so he could easily find a reasonable explanation by inferring the conclusion.

Therefore, Margaret didn't care what Philips thought.

Morale inevitably plummeted again, and the team's atmosphere became more subtle than before.

Chu Xiangqian knew that the patience of Philip Norton and the four bodyguards had reached the critical point.

Only then did he decide to take everyone to the island where the treasure was truly hidden.

Chu Qianqian stood next to some charts, pretending to think for half the night, and finally said that the treasure was probably on an island farther south.

And it’s certainly not too far from the Twin Islands.

Otherwise, even the island leader back then could not guarantee that he would be able to find the treasure island in a straight line after sailing for twenty or thirty hours.

This time, even if Philips and others raised objections, Chu Xiangqian forcefully sailed southward.

When he arrived near Treasure Island, Chu Xiangqian pretended to hold the telescope and inspected it for a while.

Suddenly he exclaimed, and then pointed to the sea-going ship on the island, which was covered by green plants and big trees, covering most of the hull, but the stern and mast could still be faintly seen.

Philips took the telescope from Chu Xiangqian's hand.

After looking carefully for a moment, I actually saw the mast.

Now everyone was excited, and when they calmed down, they admired Chu Xiangqian.

After successfully landing on the island, Chu Xiangqian saw Philip letting his two bodyguards take the lead. He didn't think much about it at first, just thinking that Philip just wanted to show more value.

But when the two bodyguards occasionally squatted by the grass to check, they quickly understood.

Chu Xiangqian is a hunter himself, and he is also a hunter who has received game skill bonuses.

One of these two bodyguards must also be a hunter who is proficient in wild survival and tracking.

Of course, special forces can actually learn these things, but Arthur, the ace bodyguard, is obviously not as proficient in this aspect as the other two.

Chu Xiangqian immediately realized that Philips was still doubting himself.

But it doesn't matter, it's even more beneficial for him to let the two bodyguards leave first.

The presence of these two professionals can prove that no one has landed on the island for a long time. Since the treasure is still undiscovered, it proves that Chu Xiangqian did not ask anyone to come over in advance.

When we see that there are only a few treasures, including bronzes and scattered jewelry abandoned by pirates, we can only say that there are no treasures at all.

The treasures snatched from the Celestial Empire may have been taken away by pirates more than a hundred years ago.

Hiding the sailboat on this island was just to serve as a backup ship and not to be discovered.

To avoid retaliation from the French.

Or maybe when the ship was snatched, it didn't carry a lot of treasures.

After all, this ship also went to Australia after leaving China.

Maybe by that time, most of the treasures stolen had been left in Australia.

It took more than an hour for everyone to see the full picture of the sailboat.

Not only was Chu Xiangqian amazed, how on earth could this ship with a displacement of at least 5 tons be dragged into a cave with an altitude of tens of meters.

Philips, Norton and others were also puzzled.

In the end, I really couldn't think of anything, so I could only put down my pursuit of the truth and speed up the mountain.

Needless to say, I was so excited when I boarded the ship, but I was so disappointed when I searched around and couldn't find any boxes containing a large number of treasures.

Everyone searched on the ship and in the cave for several times.

Finally, when a dozen pieces of bronze, dozens of pieces of porcelain and scattered jewelry were placed in the open space, their expressions were a little disappointed and angry.

Philips looked at his two bodyguards, and they shook their heads. One of them even took the initiative and said, "I guess someone would have found this treasure dozens or hundreds of years in advance.

Or, the pirates back then came back and took away the treasure. "

After saying that, he looked at Chu Xiangqian and saw that he was also looking at him. He couldn't help but think of Chu Xiangqian's offer to give 4% to four bodyguards including himself.

It’s better to tell Philips clearly in secret to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

"I judge this because I observed the dust on the ground when I entered the cave and the ship before. It is true that no one entered the cave and the ship months or even years earlier than me."

Talking about a few months or a few years was just because he didn't want to be too straightforward, so as to save face for Chu Xiangqian.

Philips naturally wanted to touch his bodyguard. The footprints from a few years ago could be seen, and the footprints from a few days or more than ten days ago were even more difficult to cover up.

Depressed and disappointed, he subconsciously remembered how Chu Qianqian found this island.

He quickly looked at Chu Qianqian, "Stark, what should we do now?"

Chu shrugged forward, "When Norton first came to me with information about the treasure, I felt that even if the treasure was real, there was a high probability that it would be taken away early."

Then he pointed to the sea ship, "Although we don't know how to drag this ship up a cave dozens of meters high, the only thing we can be sure of is that it will definitely require a lot of manpower.

In this case, it means that there are many people who know about this treasure. "

Everyone understood it as soon as they heard it. The fact that many people knew about it meant that even if this group of pirates encountered a naval battle afterwards, as long as one person survived, he would definitely try his best to come back and take away the treasure.

After hearing this, Philips began to curse. After venting his anger, he was still unwilling to give up and told everyone to look for it separately.
Maybe the pirate leader secretly hid a batch of treasures without letting his subordinates know.

Chu Qianqian was stunned, Philip's guess was indeed correct.

But he said, "Margaret and I won't go, so as not to encounter poisonous snakes or something."

Philips and Norton were stunned.

But on second thought, Chu Xiangqian was not short of money.

And if you act alone knowing that you are under suspicion, it may become even more unclear.

As for venomous snakes, it is now May and the weather in the Indian Ocean has become hotter, so you really need to be careful about venomous snakes and venomous insects.

Thinking of this, Philips began to worry about his life and looked at his two bodyguards.

In fact, these two people are not willing to give up. After all, this island must have been a hiding place for treasures back then, and it is indeed possible to find other hidden treasures.

As for Chu Xiangqian and Margaret returning to the yacht first, not to mention Philips and Norton, not even the four bodyguards agreed.

This is tantamount to giving her life to Chu Xiangqian, and Margaret cannot defeat Chu Xiangqian.

Even her brother-in-law began to distrust this woman because she was fascinated by Chu Xiangqian. If not, she would take the initiative to help him sail the boat away.

Soon, Philip's two bodyguards made some preparations and went out to search separately.

Chu Xiangqian paid no attention to the people looking for him in the south, because the huge log was in the woods to the west of the cave.

But after thinking about it, I still let the tit fly around from time to time to stare at the person walking south.

Just in case there is really more than just gold hidden in that log on the island.

If you think about it carefully, since the pirate leader hid the gold in the logs, it is indeed possible that there are treasures hidden in other places.

Thinking of this, Chu Qianqian couldn't help but cursed in his heart.

Fortunately, after thinking about it, if I came to the island alone, I would most likely leave directly after scouring the ship and taking away the gold hidden in the logs.

In the movie Zodiac, the plot only talks about gold and bronze, which means that there is really no way to deny whether there are other treasures on the island.
