Chapter 584 Traces of Snake Island
"Dacheng, it's been raining for two days. It doesn't mean to stop. How about we go back?" Monica looked at Li Dacheng beside her and asked softly. The two had been standing under the awning for a long time. To be precise, it was Monica who stood with Li Dacheng for a long time.

Today is the sixth day at sea, and the search is still fruitless, and the bad thunderstorm weather has also made the search of the fleet more difficult. Not only the sight is blocked, but even the navigation becomes difficult. , the hull kept shaking, and the whole person was dizzy by the shaking, feeling that the internal organs had shifted.

The reason why Monica said this is also for the good of Li Dacheng, because Li Dacheng has been vomited several times, and the whole person looks a little exhausted. The wind and waves on the ocean are not something that anyone can withstand, unless they have experience Rich old crew, otherwise the average person simply can't stand it.

"Why, do you also feel that there is no hope?" Li Dacheng said to Monica while looking at the gray sky.The sky on the sea, the baby’s face, these words are not wrong at all. One moment the sky is clear, the next moment there will be thunderstorms, and the rain will last for two days, and the weather forecast is not applicable at sea. refer to.

"No, I have always believed in you, but the weather is not good, and the day is approaching. It usually takes several months for Rossi and the others to salvage the ocean, and they may not be able to salvage anything, but you only need seven days. Time It's too little," Monica said.

"Who made the employment fee of your fleet so high?" Li Dacheng joked.

"I'm sorry." Monica said after hearing it. The other party gave her all the precious blood jade, but she couldn't help at all. She was really ashamed.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. What's more, do you think I look angry?" Li Dacheng said with a smile. In fact, this time he went to sea, Li Dacheng did not have much hope for salvaging Marko's sunken ship. The reason why he still insisted on going to sea , I mainly want to experience ocean salvage and verify some things, but there is indeed a sentence that Monica said, seven days is too little, if I stay here for another ten and a half days, maybe I can really find something What.

In fact, the most important thing is that he learned a lot from this ocean salvage.

Monica looked at Li Dacheng. Although the other party smiled, she always felt that the other party's smile was full of bitterness. After spending so much money, but ended up with nothing, no matter who put this matter on, she would feel unbalanced.

"vomit……"

Li Dacheng's chest was churning, and he vomited up again while holding his hand, because there was nothing in his stomach, so what he vomited was some sour water.

"Are you okay?" Monica asked, supporting Li Dacheng.

But Li Dacheng got rid of Monica's hand and said to the other party, "Inform Pietro, let him dock near the small island with houses that he saw earlier, and I want to land."

"What? You're going to the island?" Monica immediately became nervous.Sailing is one thing, going to an island is another, let alone on a rainy day? "Can't it be another day?"

Li Dacheng shook his head, he also wanted to change the day, but today is already the sixth day, and the thunderstorm outside has no intention of stopping, if he doesn't start today, then tomorrow is even more impossible.

Monica finally passed the word to Pietro. Pietro was also surprised at first, as if he couldn't understand why Li Dacheng would suddenly want to log in, but he didn't try to stop him, but followed Li Dacheng's instructions. According to the request, the boat sailed to a nearby small island.

Due to the shallow water near the island, the salvage ship could not approach, so in the end Li Dacheng could only land on a small speedboat.

Originally, Li Dacheng only needed a crew member familiar with the operation of speedboats to send him to the shore, but Monica insisted on going together, saying that she could not do without her as an interpreter. Once there are aborigines on the island, even communication will be a problem. Li Dacheng knew very well in his heart that Monica did not really get on the boat because of the translation, but worried that Rossi would sail away halfway and abandon him, so he went to the island with him. The younger sister control would never leave her younger sister on the island.

Thinking of how Rosie tried to persuade Monica, and Rosie's expression as if he ate a fly when he saw Monica boarding the speedboat, Li Dacheng felt that he should thank Monica, otherwise he would really be caught by Rosie. That sister-in-law was thrown on this island.

Li Dacheng and Monica boarded the island with difficulty in raincoats. This is a relatively large island nearby. From the boat, you can see that there are simple houses on the island, which means that there are people living on the island, maybe islanders, or It might be for tourism, but it doesn't matter to Li Dacheng, he just wants to find someone who is familiar with this place and ask about the situation in this area.

The moment his feet stepped on the ground, Li Dacheng felt that this landing was right. There is nothing more comfortable and reassuring than stepping on the ground firmly with both feet. He still felt his stomach churning violently. He felt better in an instant.

The house is in a relatively high place on the island. When I stood on the boat and looked at it, I felt that everything was close at hand, but when I actually came to the island, I realized that it was actually far away. I just climbed from the shore to It was a very difficult job on the hillside. When Li Dacheng and Monica finally came to the house, their whole bodies were wet, not from the rain, but from sweat.

"Dangdangdang!"

Monica knocked on the door and asked loudly in English, "Is anyone there?"

According to the map, this area is a British island, so it is correct to use English.

With a "click", the door opened soon, and the person who opened the door was an old man in his 60s and [-]s with a big beard. From the shirt and shorts on the other party's body, it was not difficult to see that the other party was not a primitive aborigine, but a real man. True modern people, the pop music coming out of the house can also prove this point.

The old man babbled, and Li Dacheng found that with his sloppy English, he was able to understand what the other party said. The other party was asking who you were just now.

"Tell him, we were going out to sea for fun, but it was raining heavily, and we saw people on this island, so we came here and wanted to ask a few things." After speaking, he took out a bottle of whiskey from his pocket and handed it over.

Monica translated his words to the old man. In fact, the old man could not move his eyes away after seeing the wine. This is the best whiskey on the salvage ship, and it is the wine that Rossi has kept privately. Li Dacheng thinks it may be I used it, so I secretly took a bottle.

The old man cheerfully took the whiskey, pointed to the inside of the room, made a gesture of invitation, and then returned to the room on his own.

Li Dacheng and Monica immediately entered the house. The space inside the house is larger than it looks from the outside. In addition to some daily necessities, there are lights and TVs. Along the wires, Li Dacheng found a small generator. Look at the model. It should be the kind that burns oil.

"He said that he used to be a crew member and lived at sea all year round. After retiring, he was not used to the atmosphere in the city, so he came to this island. He has lived on this island for six years and knows the place and its surroundings well. Just ask about things." Monica said to Li Dacheng after communicating with the old man for a while.

Lived for six years?
Li Dacheng frowned slightly, what he wanted to ask was hundreds of years ago, how would a person who has lived here for six years know?But since we’ve all come here, we can’t just go back like this. At least the other party is a crew member, so he should know the area better, so Li Dacheng said to Monica, “I want to know, is there a place called Snake Island near here?” ? Maybe it used to be called Snake Island, but it’s not called anymore, or maybe the people on the island gave the island such a name.”

According to Li Dacheng's intention, Monica translated it to the old man intact. After hearing it, the old man opened the whiskey, took a few deep breaths of the balloon, and then started chattering to Monica.

Monica's eyes lit up after listening to the old man's words, and she excitedly said to Li Dacheng, "He said that there is indeed a place called Snake Island nearby."

"Really?" Li Dacheng stood up excitedly, and said in a trembling voice, "Quickly ask him if he can take us there."

After exchanging a few words with the old man, Monica turned her head and said to Li Dacheng, "He said that it is not safe to go to sea in this weather, but he can point it out to us. He also said that Snake Island is not far from here. There is a place on the island. The cliff, just to be able to see Snake Island."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"

The old man seemed warm-hearted. After hearing what Monica said, he immediately picked up the raincoat from the hanger, put it on, opened the door and went out.

Maybe it was because he was very happy to see someone coming, the old man kept talking all the way, talking all the way, and Monica did not forget to translate for Li Dacheng while talking to the old man.

"He said that our fate is good. Now we can enter and leave this island at will. If it was before, we would have been captured by pirates long ago, because this area used to be a famous pirate den, and there are still many relics of pirates in the past, and because of this relationship, there are still many people who come to this island every year to explore..."

After a long time, Li Dacheng, led by the old man, came down to a cliff on the back of the island. The cliff was tens of meters high and went straight up and down. The sound was covered up.

"He said that the small islands in front are the Snake Islands." Monica said to Li Dacheng.

"What? How many small islands are all snake islands?" Li Dacheng was taken aback when he heard it, and looked in the direction the old man pointed, only to see a few small islands far away, but those small islands Li Dacheng has been there, and there is nothing special about it, but the distance is relatively close, and none of them are like the small island in the photo. "Are these islands called Snake Island?"

"Those islands are relatively close, and the ocean currents in the middle change complicatedly. After ordinary ships enter, they will be impacted by these undercurrents like snakes, turning around and not obeying orders, so some people collectively call that area Snake Island. , but that was a long time ago. Now that the technology is advanced and the boats are powerful, even a speedboat with an ordinary motor can easily get rid of the undercurrent, so now no one calls it Snake Island anymore. Xiao Dao, he also heard from the old captain when he was a crew member." Monica said to Li Dacheng, "He also asked, is that the place we are looking for?"

Li Dacheng shook his head when he heard it. The photos about Marco in Moments showed that Snake Island should be an island, but there are several islands connected in front of him. The two are obviously not the same place.

"Is there any other place called Snake Island nearby?" Li Dacheng asked with a little disappointment in his heart, it really wasn't that easy to find.

"He said no more," Monica said.

Standing on the cliff, Li Dacheng looked at several small islands in the distance. After a long time, he thanked the old man and walked down the cliff.

After going back and forth, several hours had passed, and by the time Li Dacheng and Monica returned to the boat, it was already dark.

"How is it? Did you find the treasure?" As soon as it was uploaded, Rossi looked at Li Dacheng with a smile and asked, his eyes full of mischief.

Li Dacheng didn't bother to pay attention to this sister-in-law, took off his raincoat and walked into the cabin. He was splashed with mud when he was climbing the mountain just now. He wanted to take a hot bath to relieve his fatigue while cleaning.

"Rosie, is it good for you if he didn't find the treasure?" Seeing Li Dacheng leaving, thinking that the other party was in a bad mood, Monica gave Rossi a hard look and said.

"Of course there is," Rossi said.

"What's the benefit?"

"At least it proves that what I said before is correct. There is an old saying in Huaxia? If you don't listen to good people, you will suffer in front of your eyes. How about it, you will suffer if you don't listen to me?" Rossi said proudly, "Monica, it's a good thing I didn't listen to you to cooperate with him, otherwise this time it would be a waste of time, haha."

After seeing Rossi's triumphant appearance, Monica gritted her teeth angrily, raised her foot and stomped on the other's foot, turned and entered the cabin.

After dinner, Li Dacheng did not go back to the room, but came to the deck, looking at the snake islands mentioned by the old man in the distance. Tomorrow will be the seventh day at sea. With Monica, he is not worried about Luo Xihui threw him on the island, but this time he didn't even find the location of the landmark, which made him feel a little depressed. Is 300 million euros in vain?Obviously you can eat roast duck until you vomit.

"Go back, it's not safe here." At some point, Monica came to Li Dacheng's side. The wind and waves were stronger at night than during the day. It is extraordinarily scary, and the lightning flashing across the sky from time to time makes people feel like the end of the world.

"It's okay." Li Dacheng said with a smile, "I'm going back tomorrow, I'll stay for a while."

"Then you have to hold on tight, don't be caught by the wind and waves..." Monica was talking, a flash of lightning flashed across the dark night sky, and the entire sky seemed to be split, illuminating the entire sea.

rumbling rumbling...

Immediately afterwards, deafening thunder sounded, and Monica was so frightened that she had to cover her ears with her hands and waited until the thunder passed before she put down her hands.

"Let's go back..." Monica just opened her mouth, but she saw Li Dacheng standing there blankly, staring straight ahead, as if she was stupid, Monica was taken aback by Li Dacheng's appearance , Was it frightened by the lightning and thunder just now? "Dacheng, Li Dacheng..."

Monica gently shook Li Dacheng, but found that although Li Dacheng didn't talk to her, his lips kept moving. She moved closer curiously, and listened carefully, only to hear the other person's mouth keep saying with...

"I found it, I found it..."
