The next morning, Lu Xuan, who had secretly taken an extra class with Shen Keyin, slept until dawn.
The girls had all gotten up by now. When Lu Xuan opened his eyes, he not only saw the girls coming and going in the cave, but also saw a blond man sitting in front of him.
"Thank you, thank you, my benefactor."
When the man saw Lu Xuan get up, he bowed to him.
Lu Xuan was already half asleep, and the sudden bow from the man in front of him almost frightened him into lying down again.
It was not until the other person raised his head that Lu Xuan saw clearly who he was. Wasn't this Aphrodite's younger brother Taylor, whom he had rescued with great difficulty last night?
"You also speak Chinese?"
Lu Xuan didn't expect that Taylor could actually speak Chinese, and his pronunciation didn't seem like he was a foreigner at all.
"Well, I went to China to study for a year. Thank you so much for risking your life to save me and taking such good care of my sister."
Taylor bowed to Lu Xuan again.
"Taylor, you don't have to be so polite. Your sister saved us before. I'm sorry that we couldn't save Jessica. Before she died, she asked us to find Aphrodite."
The three girls saw Taylor like this and came over one after another. Both sides exchanged some polite greetings.
"Taylor, does that Japanese woman's tribe really eat people?"
After all the politeness was over, Leng Mengyao started asking about serious matters.
"Yes, there's a very fat man in their tribe who eats human flesh at least once a day. He has a huge appetite. It's simply terrifying."
Obviously, Taylor was a little scared when he thought of the sumo wrestler, and his voice became a little trembling.
"Did they ring that skull bell on purpose?"
Since Taylor has fully recovered, Leng Mengyao decided to get to the bottom of the matter.
"Yes, there aren't many tribes on the island that use the Skull Bell anymore. But these two Japanese seem to think that using this method can easily attract those savages and obtain human flesh without any effort. That's why they ring the Skull Bell every once in a while."
As Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao expected, the skull bell was deliberately rung by the vicious Japanese woman in order to obtain human flesh.
"Taylor, have you ever seen the parchment scroll? Did your sister Jessica tell you about the parchment scroll and the legend? Is the legend of the ship true?"
Leng Mengyao now felt like he had found an "encyclopedia", throwing away all the questions in his mind.
"I haven't seen it, but I've heard my sister and Vivian mention that legend. Oh, and Vivian seems to have seen one of the scrolls with her own eyes, the one with English on it."
"Vivian has seen it? Aphrodite said Jessica has seen it too. Are they both seeing the same one?"
Hearing this, Lu Xuan interrupted Taylor. In his impression, Aphrodite seemed to have mentioned that her sister Jessica had also seen the parchment with text descriptions.
"Yes, it's the same one, but it's not the same one."
Lu Xuan had just praised Taylor for his excellent Chinese, but now he said this to him.
"What do you mean by the same? It's not the same. Please, I, a Chinese, can hardly understand Chinese anymore."
Yin Yichen was already confused at first, and now she was even more confused.
"I mean, Vivian saw what should be an older version, and my sister saw what should be a newer version."
"What!? There are two more versions?"
After hearing Taylor's additional explanation, everyone present became even more confused.
This set of three parchment scrolls was already quite a hassle. Lu Xuan and the others still hadn't figured out what was written on them, and now another one had appeared...
It's like you're working on your homework all night, and finally you find yourself almost done with three papers, only to find out when you reach into your bag that you've only just finished the appetizers. You still have a dozen papers in your bag...
How can this not make people collapse?
"Yes, Vivian said that the one she saw should be the original version."
"So... do you know where the parchment scroll is now?"
Leng Mengyao asked again, and everyone looked at Taylor with anticipation.
Sadly, Taylor shook his head.
However, after a moment, he added: "Vivian might know, but she should be imprisoned by Richard now..."
After hearing this, everyone took a deep breath. Now there are two pieces of news.
The good news is that the clues about the whereabouts of the parchment have not been completely cut off, and Vivian may have the latest clues.
The bad news is that after finally finding Taylor, they now have to look for Vivian. This is really one thing after another...
"So...is that legend true?"
Chen Keyin didn't think as deeply as Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao. What she cared about was more pure, that is, whether the legend was true or false.
"That... I'm not sure either, but the people from the previous period, those Japanese, they believed it wholeheartedly. They said they didn't believe it at first, but as time went on, all sorts of bizarre deaths occurred, and the number of survivors decreased, so in the end, almost everyone believed it..."
Taylor shook his head slightly. It was obvious that he was only half-believing and half-doubting the legend, but the Japanese believed it firmly.
