Chapter 465 The Seven Deadly Sins
Li Canghai nodded, and said: "I heard that there are seven original sins in the world, adultery, gluttony, greed, laziness, rage, jealousy, and arrogance. I always thought that these were just teaching people to be kind in Buddhist scriptures. However, I did not expect the story to be fully reflected in this small shrine. Hong Tianxu is lustful, the fat guards are gluttonous, the skinny guards are lazy, the sixth prince is furious, Ling Ji is jealous, and the dead princess is arrogant. The seven sins seem to be unrelated, but they actually have internal causes and effects. These seemingly ordinary crimes exist in everyone's heart, but if they are not controlled, they will eventually go to hell like what happened in this shrine. A road of no return."

When everyone heard the words, they nodded one after another, full of emotion.

Li Yu sighed for a long time, he shook his head, and said: "Since this matter has been found out, don't bring it up again, let's talk about other things. Sir, we clearly saw that you were attacked by a shark, hurry up Tell me how you escaped?"

"That's right, Cang Hai, tell me quickly, how did you escape?" Di Qing asked expectantly, blinking her eyes.

Li Canghai smiled, and then told everyone that he was rescued by the blue whale.

After everyone listened, they were amazed.

Li Jinsheng admired him even more. He looked at Di Qing and said, "Master Li, you don't know how worried the princess was when she found out that you were surrounded by sharks. The princess wanted to jump into the sea to find you. Later, it was Steward Qi who made the move to stop the princess!"

Qi Yunhe bowed his hands to Li Canghai and said, "Yunhe knocked the princess unconscious with his attack, and today I'm here to plead guilty to my lord, please punish me."

Li Canghai smiled slightly, and said gratefully: "Why does Steward Qi do this? I know Qing'er, if it wasn't for your help, she would definitely jump into the sea desperately, and it would be difficult for me to meet Qing'er again. Speaking of which, I should be the one to thank you." You are."

"Yunhe dare not." Qi Yunhe hurriedly bowed his head and replied.

Li Yu laughed, and said: "Okay, okay, we are all from our own family, so you don't have to be polite! But, sir! Only now did I know that Miss Qing really has a deep affection for you! You have to be good Just wait for her!"

Li Canghai gently held Di Qing's hand, and Di Qing's face instantly turned red.

"Qing'er, don't worry. In this life, I will never let go of your hand again." Li Canghai said tenderly.

Di Qing bit her lip lightly, she looked at Li Canghai, two lines of tears flowed involuntarily from her eyes.

"Why did it take you so long to come here?" Li Canghai asked Di Qing as he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Li Yu sighed, and said: "Then, after encountering a storm, he changed his course, but lost his way on the vast sea, sailed aimlessly on the sea for two days, and only found an island yesterday. After resting, everyone calculated the route together, and finally found the direction of 'Devil's Island'."

Li Canghai nodded, and said, "I'm relieved that you are here, and I will arrange guards to protect the three artifacts as soon as possible, and leave for Yangzhou tomorrow!"

"Don't worry, my lord! I will guard the three artifacts every step of the way and never let accidents happen!" Li Jinsheng said solemnly.

Li Canghai thought for a while and said, "However, before I leave, I still have one matter to settle."

"What's the matter?" Li Yu asked.

Li Canghai told him about Xu Liang and said, "No matter what, I will fulfill my promise. My lord, I will leave this place to you. If the sixth prince and others ask about it, just say that I have something important to do." , meet at the beach tomorrow."

Li Yu stood up and said, "Leave the matters of the shrine to me. However, this island is full of dangers. I think it's better to let Jianning Tiewei follow you."

Li Canghai pondered for a while, nodded and said: "That's fine, it's not too late, I'll set off now, try to resolve this matter as soon as possible, and meet you."

"Canghai, I want to go too!" Di Qing hurriedly said, fearing that Li Canghai would leave her behind.

Li Canghai smiled, stretched out his fingers and scratched the bridge of her nose, and said, "Don't worry, I won't abandon you again."

After tidying up a bit, Li Canghai left the shrine with Di Qing, Wanyu, and five Jianning iron guards.

A group of people came to the short hill near the beach and found the previous camp.

Walking into the camp, I suddenly found that the camp was unusually quiet, not even guards.

Li Canghai's heart tightened, thinking that something had happened, he hurriedly rushed into the tent where Xu Liang was.

In the tent, Xu Liang sat on the spot, with blood dripping from his mouth, motionless.

Zhang Da and Shangguan Mao stood on both sides, their faces were full of sadness.

"Brother Zhang, Shangguan, what's wrong with Brother Xu?" Li Canghai hurriedly asked when he saw the difference in their expressions.

"Are you...?" Shangguan Mao looked at him suspiciously.

The Li Canghai they saw before was a disguised appearance, and the two of them had never seen Li Canghai's real appearance, so they couldn't help but feel a little puzzled at this moment.

"I'm Li Canghai."

"Brother Li? Where did you go? We thought you were in danger!" Zhang Da said with a sad face.

Li Canghai said: "I went to deal with some matters, but it's a long story. Brother Xu, what's going on?"

"Brother Li, Dr. Xu... he's gone!" After Zhang Da finished speaking, tears flowed from his tiger eyes.

"What?" Li Canghai was stunned for a moment, he hurried over, put his finger in front of Xu Liang's nose to test it, his heart suddenly went cold.

Xu Liang was indeed dead, and had been dead for several hours.

"How did this happen? What's going on here?" Li Canghai only felt a bit of bitterness, and asked in a low voice.

Shangguanmao sighed: "This morning, I brought back the earth dragon vine and the fish gull, and Dr. Xu locked himself in the tent to test the medicine himself. But...but I didn't expect... alas."

"Could it be that the medicine made by the ground dragon vine and fish gull is poisonous?" Li Canghai asked with a frown.

Shangguanmao shook his head and said: "I don't know, according to my guess, it may be because the medicine is too strong, and Dr. Xu's body was too weak to withstand the impact of the medicine before, which killed Dr. Xu."

Li Canghai felt complicated for a while, he and Xu Liang didn't get along very long, it could even be said that they met each other once.

But he respects Xu Liang very much. No matter his medical skills or his persistence, they are all admirable from the bottom of his heart.

In his eyes, Xu Liang is the real healer, the real chivalrous man!
However, Li Canghai couldn't accept that such a knight died on such an island because of saving these pirates.

"Do you have any last words before Dr. Xu died?" Li Canghai clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were wet, and he tried his best to control his emotions, and asked in a low voice.

Shangguan Mao took out a piece of cloth from his sleeve and said, "Before Dr. Xu died, he was still thinking about finding an antidote for me. He left this picture and said that he had found a way to help us." , It’s just that the book he used to record the antidote fell in Yatsushirohara, so I have to find it no matter what.”
