Chapter 272: Action
The Phoenix Islands are composed of 8 small islands and several coral reefs, located halfway from Hawaii to Fiji in the South Pacific. The entire archipelago covers an area of only 7.6 square kilometers. Except for the largest island, Kandun Island, which lives on more than twenty scientific researchers, the rest of the archipelago is uninhabited.
Over the past two centuries, people have tried several times to settle or immigrate in the Phoenix Islands, but all efforts ended in failure, and the last group of residents evacuated the island in 1963.
Ouyang Zhanying immediately issued an order to get the gambling ship close to the Phoenix Islands, and Qin Xuebing stood on the deck to observe the so-called fire dragon in the sea.
The fire dragon in the sea does exist, and the vision that appears here is the result of the manifestation of the fire dragon in the sea. Qin Xuebing looked at the island for a while, and it can be seen from the vegetation that droughts should often occur here due to the fire dragon in the sea.
After asking Ouyang Zhanying, he immediately found relevant information. The facts proved that Qin Xuebing's guess was completely correct. It was precisely because of the frequent drought that immigration to the Phoenix Islands failed several times and he had to evacuate.
However, this is not the whole of the fire dragons in the sea, it is only a small part, it is equivalent to Qin Xuebing's mansion, just a corner of the dragon vein.
"Qin, you are so great!" Delfina was extremely excited. Although it was a little different from oil painting, it was already 60 to 70% similar. As for the difference, it was caused by the time too long and the poor painting skills.
"Escape from here first and land on the island to hunt for treasure tomorrow!" Ouyang Zhanying made a decision immediately. It was dark soon, and it was not suitable for landing, and it was even less suitable for treasure hunting. Moreover, the Phoenix Islands are the territory of other countries. Staying here for too long may cause trouble. It is better to retreat to the high seas and wait until tomorrow to board the island by yacht.
"We plan for tens of thousands of yuan, and it is not easy to find treasures." Qin Xuebing could not use Feng Shui theory to hunt treasures on the island. After all, Blackbeard doesn't understand this, and it is only an accident that he can find this place based on Feng Shui.
The Phoenix Islands are composed of 8 small islands and several coral reefs. They are not large in area, but they are also 7.6 square kilometers. No one knows that Blackbeard will hide the treasure in that corner, or even bury the treasure in the ground.
After discussion, everyone unanimously decided to use the stupidest method, carpet-style search. Only in this way can they have the opportunity to find the treasure.
Of course, Qin Xuebing has absolute confidence that as long as the treasure is still on the island, he will definitely not be able to escape his palm. As his cultivation level continues to improve, his sensing of antiques is more acute and the range is larger. He can definitely sense clearly within a hundred meters, and 7.6 square kilometers does not take much time.
"Stopped again, the location is Phoenix Islands!"
Whenever the ship stopped, the fifth scum had a headache because she couldn't tell whether Qin Xuebing stopped the ship to hunt for treasure or wait for relaxation. Therefore, she could only use the stupidest method and continue to wait, and then take action when Qin Xuebing started to return.
The second said that the sun had just revealed its horizontal line. Except for the soldiers who were left on the ship, others landed on the islands, scattered on various islands, and launched a carpet-style search.
Qin Xuebing found a reason for himself to support himself and could move freely, with the purpose of exploring clues of the treasure as soon as possible.
Qin Xuebing climbed to the first island and walked around in a leisurely manner, not like he was hunting for treasures, but like he was sightseeing. However, the scenery on the island is indeed good, with all kinds of animals living in the animal world, and the animal world's worst can be seen everywhere.
It took an hour to travel around every corner, but the vitality did not sense. However, Qin Xuebing was not discouraged and drove a speedboat to the next small island.
Qin Xuebing felt that he was not very lucky, and there was still nothing on the second island that could sense the Yin Qi and Yuan Qi.
After thinking about it, Qin Xuebing drove a speedboat to the largest island of Kandun. There are currently more than 20 scientific researchers living there, and many people once lived there, and perhaps they can gain something.
However, the facts proved that speculation was easy to make mistakes. When the sun shone vertically on the island, there was still no harvest. Moreover, there was no harvest all day. On this day, Qin Xuebing searched six islands, leaving only two.
As night fell, everyone retreated to the ship, preparing to continue tomorrow. The fifth scum closely followed the situation here, frowned and muttered: "If you don't leave, it seems that the Phoenix Islands are the place to hide treasures. They should be looking for treasures on the island now, but they don't know if they have found it."
"If I find it, I will definitely leave."
The first scum said next to him: "I really hope they can find the treasure as soon as possible and we can complete the task as soon as possible."
"Yeah, to be honest, I've started to hate the sea!"
The second scum sighed and said, "No good wine or beauty, this day is simply not something that humans can live."
"Aren't we beautiful women?" The third scum and the fifth scum picked up the thing and smashed it over at the same time.
"I hope you are not beauties!" The second scum replied weakly, "It's right that they are scum, but the relationship between men and women is very clear. They each have their own lives and have never been messy."
Of course, it is also a pain to only watch but not practice!
They joked for a while and each rested. Qin Xuebing and others continued to land on the island as they were dawning: "There are only two small islands left, I hope I won't disappoint me."
"It must be, you must find the treasure!" Delfina murmured to herself. She had longed for the diamond that had never been born. And she hoped that this treasure hunt would end successfully, rather than a failed action.
"It's a bit regretful!" Reese muttered, contrary to bordering Delfina, he didn't want to find the treasure now.
In his fantasy, treasure hunting should be the same as Qin Xuebing's search for treasure in the desert. Not only does it have villains, but it also has all kinds of mystery, such as monsters. Now, the villain has seen a lot of experiences, but the monsters have no shadow. Xiaolong can barely be considered one, but he is from his own.
Perhaps, his resentment played a role. Qin Xuebing spent three hours walking through the last two islands, but his vitality still did not sense. This only shows that either the treasure was not on these eight islands at all, or it had been taken away by someone long ago.
Qin Xuebingbing was unwilling to give up and drove a speedboat to surf all nearby coral reefs, and even conducted an island patrol, but his vitality still did not induce it.
The treasure is not here! Perhaps the oil painting was just a chance, which was drawn by a pirate under Blackbeard during the journey, rather than when Blackbeard hides the treasure.
Qin Xuebing sat on the extinguished speedboat, and various thoughts flashed through his mind, as well as his strong unwillingness. This trip to the treasure hunt in the sea had such a huge amount of manpower and material resources, which took nearly a month. He fought with pirates, Indian destroyers, and Indian Navy Commando one after another, but in the end it was a waste.
To be precise, it cannot be considered empty. They have found a treasure and seized more than 100 yachts, which are of great value.
However, it is always unwilling to find the treasure of the target!
The sun sets, the carpet-style search has ended, and everyone is depressed and unable to lift their spirits. Delfina murmured to herself: "Treasures, diamonds, maybe just what we imagined, everything is just fantasy. No, to be precise, rumors, and we believe it."
"Delfina, don't be discouraged. At least we have a wonderful journey on our manager." Ye Zijing felt a little reluctant and comforted.
"That's right, it's worth it after experiencing these!" Delfina quickly smiled. Diamonds were nothing to her. She could compare to the sum of the world's famous diamonds as long as she took out a small amount of wealth.
The reason I was discouraged before was because I had too high expectations and too big psychological gap.
"Treasure Hunt Rat, is there really no way?" Reese wanted to slap himself a few times, and he muttered nothing now.
That's right, he yearns for a more exciting journey, hoping that treasure hunt can be continued and more magical. But now, the clues are broken and the treasure hunt is over, which is equivalent to a failed treasure hunt journey.
A treasure hunt that is not perfect is better than a failed treasure hunt?
"What can I do?" Qin Xuebing smiled bitterly. The only clues from beginning to end were the oil painting. He also successfully found the location of the oil painting, but the result was not satisfactory, and he had no choice.
"Study, I have an idea, maybe I can try it."
Ye Zijing thought for a while and said, "The oil painting presents the pattern of the fire dragon in the sea. Can we search along the dragon veins with the fire dragon in the sea as a clue?"
Qin Xuebing thought for a while, nodded and said, "I can't be sure, but there may be clues. In this way, you can set off overnight to avoid wasting your time."
"Great, my treasure hunt is not over yet!" Reese jumped up, and the magical journey in his fantasy still has hope.
No, it will definitely happen, he told himself secretly!
Qin Xuebing and others could understand this. This kid was crazy about thrilling, otherwise he would not have taken out three of the twelve beast heads, plus a famous Picasso painting.
"Yes, I believe there will be a happy ending." Delfina's heart also ignited hope, and the treasure hunt was not over.
"They set out and set out overnight. I guess they have found the treasure!" The fifth scum cheered. He had been drifting on the sea for so many days, but wasn't it today?
"If you stay on the island for two days, if you are for relaxing, you will not leave overnight. I guess you have really found it." The first scum also agreed with the fifth scum. From his own perspective, if you are just for relaxing, you have to wait until dawn before leaving.
"Check the equipment and start the action!" The first scum issued an order, and everyone started to operate efficiently and took out pieces of equipment that had not been moved on the market. Each piece of equipment here was customized to deal with this task, or even made by themselves. It is no exaggeration to say that the value of these equipment alone is enough for many people to live a safe life.
