Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 2508 Pirate flag?
Cang Qianche guessed in surprise that the blood in the jar might have something to do with the fish clan's tattoo.

Liu Ya nodded, and said: "And I also found that the blood mixed with pigments contains a small anesthetic component. This anesthetic may be diluted from the poison in my brother."

Because Liu Ya heard that Yuzu started tattooing after the child was born, but a large area of ​​tattooing will not only cause pain, but may also cause symptoms of infection.

And this kind of poison has the effect of anesthesia and certain anti-infection effect, so it has become one of the ingredients of pigments.

Another possibility is that the people living in the cave couldn't find better painkillers, so they used the poison they usually used to dilute it.If the dosage is mastered, the pain relief effect must be good.

Cang Qianche said: "Our top priority is to find the formula for that poison. From this point of view, we can only go to the sea to go to the fish family."

The sea is vast, and the wind and waves are unpredictable. Going to sea is a last resort.

But now there is another clue related to the fish clan, and it seems that the only way to find the fish clan is to go to sea.

Liu Ya said again: "The other discovery is rather strange. I don't know if it will affect our going to sea. Che, come with me."

Cang Qianche curiously followed Liu Ya back into the house, and saw a lot of things in a mess on her table.Most of them are medicine bottles and white porcelain cups, which Liu Ya temporarily used as experimental vessels.

But at a corner of the table, a piece of rags spread on the white cloth was unfolded and flattened, and instead occupied a conspicuous position.

Liu Ya went straight to the piece of cloth and said, "Look, there seems to be some pattern on it. But I dare not wash it, because the cloth is already rotten, and it might break if I use a little force."

Cang Qianche also came to the table and looked in the direction of Liu Ya's finger.

It was a piece of black cloth, which should be the one they found in the corner of the cave.

Originally, Liu Ya thought it was an ordinary furoshiki, or something like curtains.However, after unfolding it and carefully identifying it in the sunlight, it was found that there were faint golden threads and some dark patterns on the cloth.

Later, Liu Ya put a piece of white cloth on the bottom, unfolded and flattened the whole piece of "rags", and then carefully wiped off the dust on it with cotton balls.

That piece of cloth revealed a special pattern.But the pattern is embroidered with silk thread of the same color as the cloth, so it is almost indistinguishable under the sun.

And that Buri does contain fine gold threads.The gold wires were drawn thinner than hair, and the number was not large, and the weaving method was not dense, so it was not noticed immediately.

Cang Qianche first touched the texture of the cloth with his hands.Because the cloth thread in some places was quite frayed, exposing a thin layer of gold thread inside, Cang Qianche frowned after carefully looking at the gold thread.

Liu Ya said: "Do you think it's very different? A piece of black cloth that looks ordinary is actually woven with gold threads."

"This is not an ordinary cloth, it should be the flag on the ship." Cang Qianche seemed to be trying hard to search for the memory, and then said: "The sea is very windy and the waves are very strong, and ordinary flags are easily damaged and broken by the sea wind, so some A flag woven with golden silk will be hung on an elegant vessel. Of course, any vessel with such a sign will not be an ordinary fishing vessel, it will either be a regular navy flagship or a large pirate ship,"

Liu Ya was secretly startled, and said, "Is it more likely that a pirate ship is there?"

Cang Qianche nodded, and said: "Our navy in Yunqiong Kingdom also uses this kind of golden thread to weave flags, but the pattern is not like this. Most of these black flags are only used by pirate ships. But I don’t know which pirate ship used this dark pattern.”

This is even more strange. It may be a temporary foothold of the fish clan, but they found a pirate flag.

Liu Ya touched the exposed gold thread on the flag, stroked the folds of the flag, and speculated: "When we found this flag, it was randomly discarded in the corner. Could it be... Those who disappeared were also taken away suddenly?"

This can also explain why there are no traces of long-term living in that cave.Maybe those people had been taken away before they lived in winter.

As for how clean it was inside without leaving any clues, it might be that after the person was taken away, everything here was packaged up and destroyed or taken away.

Only the flag and the broken jar were thrown away.

Cang Qianche said: "In this way, it may be inferred that the two groups of people are in conflict, or they are enemies. After taking people away, this flag was thrown on the ground at random as something shameless and disdainful, and was trampled on Then stayed in the corner."

Liu Ya's eyes lit up, and she said, "Could it be that a group of pirates hid in the cave, and were later found by the navy or enemies, and then they were taken away?"

"There is such a possibility. But it is not recorded in our Yunqiong Kingdom's coastal defense book." Cang Qianche replied.

If it wasn't done by the navy of the Yunqiong Kingdom, then who would arrest them?Could these people be pirates from the fish clan?
Cang Qianche patted Liu Ya's back, smoothed the hair around her ears, and said, "Ya'er, you should take a good rest first. I'll go to the yamen and navy near the sea to ask about it. Is there any news about this? We will discuss going to sea after we come back."

Liu Ya agreed to come down, washed up and went to rest.

This sleep lasted until night, and Cang Qianche also came back.But looking at his expression is not optimistic.

Liu Ya said, "Che, do you have any news?"

"Basically there is no progress." Cang Qianche shook his head and said, "However, I asked the yamen near the sea about the village that suddenly disappeared, and I also checked the records of the villages on the coastline in the last 40 years, and found it again. The two places may be similar to the village your master mentioned."

While eating dinner, Liu Ya said, "Then shall we go and have a look tomorrow?"

"No need." Cang Qianche said: "I went directly after I found out the news. The two villages are not far away, but I didn't find anything. They are just ordinary fishermen."

After Cang Qianche finished speaking, he also dug out the map he brought back, and said: "These two places are not on the map marked by Master, but they are recorded on the coastal defense map. It's just that the fishing village is very small, and the fishermen keep their own place. , and no one has tattoos."

In this way, going to sea has become a necessary plan for the next step.Because Liu Ya and Cang Qianche couldn't find any more clues.

Jin Lan also sent people to make unannounced visits nearby, but the information they got was almost useless.
