Seeing the burly man running out of the waterfall, Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin temporarily put Yin Yichen's "gift-giving matter" behind their minds.
But this guy named William ran really fast. He looked around at the mouth of the waterfall, and then chose the north for some reason. Then he rushed all the way and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing the other party disappear from their sight, Lu Xuan and others were a little confused.
"Lu Xuan, are you sure this person is following us?"
Shen Keyin frowned and looked at Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan scratched his head as well. This person was following someone as if he was going to kill someone. He was making such a big fuss because he was afraid that the other person wouldn't know he was coming?
"Ahem...it seems like this guy isn't very smart, which is a good thing for us."
"It seems so. I think he is indeed a bit silly. Just like what people say online, he is the kind of person who only has muscles but no brains."
Shen Keyin agreed and pointed to the basket of vegetables in her arms.
Leng Mengyao and Yin Yichen also nodded in agreement immediately. After all, even without looking at anything else, the bowl full of vegetables in Shen Keyin's arms was enough to show that this strong man's brain was indeed not working very well.
"Lu Xuan, I asked Aphrodite. She refused to leave the tribe because her brother was imprisoned by Richard. There's a cellar behind the big tent, and her brother was imprisoned down there... As for Jessica, the blonde who died in our cave was indeed her sister. Persecuted by Richard, she chose to flee the tribe and later encountered a hostile tribe..."
Seeing that the crisis was over, Leng Mengyao told everyone the news he had obtained from the Charlie tribe after taking the risk.
"Then everything makes sense. Is there any other useful information? For example, how did this Richard gain the trust of the Savage Tribe? And what did the blonde woman mean by a safe place?"
Lu Xuan and Yin Yichen bought so much time for Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin, so naturally these two girls did not disappoint them.
Chen Keyin almost plucked all the other party's vegetables, and also brought back more valuable vegetable seeds.
As for Leng Mengyao, he was constantly gathering intelligence and checking the internal situation of the Charlie tribe.
"Aphrodite wasn't very clear about how Richard gained the trust of the barbarian tribe. I suspect the girl has been subjected to long-term coercion and threats from Richard, and she does have some mental issues... She only mentioned that Richard seemed to be able to perform magic in the past, and I suspect he used that to trick the tribal leader. As for the safe place, Aphrodite said her sister once saw a record on an ancient tribal parchment scroll, which stated that there were five sacred and inviolable places in this area..."
"It's getting late, let's talk while we walk..."
It seemed that Leng Mengyao had indeed obtained a lot of information. Lu Xuan looked up at the position of the sun and decided that the four of them would rush back while listening to Leng Mengyao's narration. After all, the big fool had already gone north, and there was no need for their group to stay here.
The four of them stood up and started to return the same way. Leng Mengyao, who was walking in the middle of the crowd, continued to share her information.
"These five places are the Sacred Mountain, the Holy Spring, the Dragon's Cave, the Phoenix's Nest, and one called Bright Fire... The savages believe these five places are protected by the gods. However, the parchment scroll was torn into pieces during the first conflict between the tribes and was divided into three parts. The one Jessica saw was a written record in a foreign language, and the other two were maps, but they are no longer available..."
"etc……"
After hearing this, Lu Xuan interrupted Leng Mengyao. After all, Leng Mengyao's words alone gave too much information.
"You said there are five places protected by gods? You also said the one Jessica saw was written in a foreign language... Doesn't that mean the contents of this parchment scroll couldn't possibly have been passed down by the Savage Tribe itself? Also, you said the other two were maps? Could the parchment scroll we found on the yacht be one of them?"
Lu Xuan immediately asked his own questions based on the information provided by Leng Mengyao.
"You're right. When I heard this information, I had the same idea as you. The parchment map on our yacht is most likely one of the two lost maps, and the parchment with the text Jessica saw is the third explanatory document... As for the foreign records you mentioned, my opinion is similar to yours. I believe that these three parchments are not the property of the savage tribe, but documents left by explorers who landed on the deserted island in the early days. As for why the savages regard the contents of these documents as a sanctuary for the gods, I guess it's similar to the method Richard used to deceive the savages..."
"What you said made me dizzy..."
Yin Yichen was already confused at this time and kept patting her head.
It is obvious that this girl lives on her looks and her eloquence, and she has limited acceptance of things that require the consumption of brain cells.
On the contrary, Shen Keyin listened with great interest and even interrupted.
"Meng Yao, Lu Xuan, do you think that if we collect these three maps, we can actually find some treasure?"
Apparently, this girl has dreamed of finding treasure quite often. After all... who hasn't been a teenager once...
"Aphrodite said her sister told her that the words on the parchment have become very blurred due to the passage of time. However, Jessica did see fragments of the English word 'treasure' on the parchment..."
Speaking of English, Leng Mengyao glanced at Lu Xuan and translated it for him.
"Is there really a treasure? Is it just like the rumors say, with countless gold, silver, and jewelry, the kind that seems to sparkle as if at a glance..."
At the mention of the word "treasure," Yin Yichen's eyes lit up, as if an invisible force had instantly ignited her passion. Her expression clearly indicated she had already envisioned a grand and magnificent treasure hunt.
I guess I'm just lying in the treasure chest and counting money...
"Ahem... let's not get off topic. This isn't even close to happening. So, according to you, the savages should know these five locations?"
Although Lu Xuan's expectations for the treasure were far less exaggerated than Yin Yichen's, he remembered that those savages had once knelt in front of his cave. According to Leng Mengyao, the savages on the island should know the locations of the five shelters.
Unfortunately, Leng Mengyao shrugged at him...
Now Lu Xuan was a little confused...
