Chapter 13 The Secret of the Treasure
"It seems you have to choose." Yi Xiao shrugged and expressed helplessness to the seafarers behind him.
"You are a devil, you lured us here!" James was angry and shouted at Yi Xiao, "We are going to leave here and let you and your treasure go to hell."
"Yes, it's time to leave here." Yi Xiao nodded seriously, "But I'm afraid we think of leaving differently. Also, who knows what this is? Don't take out the gun captain." Yi Xiao was always paying attention to James' actions. Seeing James reach out to find the gun, he directly knocked the pistol into the sea with his mental power.
"Okay, I'm the biggest here now." Yi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and the last problem with a positive threat was solved. "Let's not waste time, okay?" Yi Xiao took two steps forward and clapped his hands, "Villian, please explain."
"It's time for me to come, you've made a mess." Vilian gave him a blank look, and Yi Xiao smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
"You all know that we are looking for the treasure on this treasure map, which is left by Merlin." Verian said truthfully, and several seamen were surprised when they heard Merlin's name. "As native British people, you should know better than me who Merlin is. And judging from the current situation, I'm afraid this treasure map is real, but we also have a wizard." Yi Xiao grinned at James.
"So as long as we cooperate, we will definitely find treasures. I only need things related to magic, as long as she has archaeological value, gold and silver can be given to you." Yi Xiao said in a tone full of **, luring them to cooperate step by step.
Several people were all moved, and a seaman swallowed, "How do we know you won't kill us after you get the treasure?"
"Ha!" Yi Xiao smiled, "You have watched too many movies. We have recorded it in the customs before we went to sea."
James nodded to the few people, "We need to discuss it."
"No problem." Yi Xiao had a smile on his face.
"Do you have clues about what to do next?" While James and the others were discussing, Verian asked Yi Xiao.
"Not yet." Yi Xiao shook his head, "We are in trouble now." He found that the red algae had surrounded the ship and were slowly gathering layer by layer.
"Have you finished researching it? We will be broken down into microorganisms after a while."
"Okay, OK," James said quickly, "We can help you on the adventure, but you must ensure our safety and not deliberately let us explore the way and die."
"There are specialties." A seaman looked at Yi Xiao's expressionless face and said.
"No problem." Yi Xiao agreed to these conditions easily. "So, who can tell me, are these red algae? Why so many?"
"It should be." James wasn't sure, he recalled the large red spot he saw on the scanner. "The scanning has infrared rays, but this red algae should not be able to measure the heat unless...
"Unless it's something." Verian asked quickly.
"Unless they are another creature."
...
While speaking, the red algae that were closer to the stern of the yacht had already touched the ship and began to climb slowly.
"Is another creature?" Yi Xiao raised his eyebrows. Soon the hull was tilted violently, and a large amount of red algae had accumulated at the tail, causing the hull to begin to tilt.
Several people surrounded and looked at these strange plants at close range. The red blood-like colors were as crystal as crystal or coral, and they were not as desolate and wet as usual. They were like a craft work of nature, as if they were constantly seducing people's souls.
A seaman couldn't help but pull down a cluster. Vilian didn't come and stopped him, while Yi Xiao was quietly observing the changes.
"It's nothing." The seaman looked at it for a while, "it's just a little heavy."
"Then clean them up quickly. If they grow too fast, our ship will sink!" James said quickly.
"No." Yi Xiao looked at the cluster of red algae. Several people saw that it began to undergo some unknown changes. They each raised their spirits. The seaman quickly threw it on the ground, "Do you believe in religion?" Yi Xiao asked suddenly.
"Ah, yes." The seaman was stunned for a moment.
"Then you'd better pray that God can bless you." As soon as Yi Xiao finished speaking, the red algae began to twitch like he was suffering from rabies, and then began to swell. Then the next scene scared everyone, and it turned into a hunched and charred dry hand.
It bounced hard on the ground to the seaman's face, and the seaman let out a shrill scream. At this moment, all the red algae quickly deformed as if they had received a signal. A large number of scorched broken wrists rushed towards Yi Xiao and the others like spiders.
"Be careful!!" Verian shouted, pulling out the whip hanging around his waist with his backhand, aiming at the broken hands that rushed to the front, and twitching them in many numbers, but they are very fragile. After being thrust by Verian's whip, it cracked in half, fell to the ground and twitched for two times, then stopped moving.
Yi Xiao frowned, and his mental power gushed out, knocking away a large number of broken hands in the air, but soon they climbed back tirelessly, so Yi Xiao could only use the flames to start ignite them.
The other people were not idle either. Several people pulled the dry hands off the unlucky seaman's face, but the seaman's face was already bloody and bloody, and even the eyes and nose could not be found. Only five holes were still emitting white smoke.
"It's corrosive." Yi Xiao reminded indifferently, "but they are very crisp, so you'd better find some blunt tools to use."
James and others picked up the lounge chairs scattered on the deck, removed the steel pipes a few times and began to wave them.
"This won't work! They are too many." Verian shouted at Yi Xiao. "We want to find our leader."
Yi Xiao rolled his eyes helplessly, "I don't think they have a leader." There were more and more broken hands around him, and the remaining directions were also covered with such things. The originally tilted ship had been flattened back, but everyone clearly felt the severe decline of the ship.
"Let's go down!" Yi Xiao yelled all over. The others quickly bent down when they heard this.
Yi Xiao ignited a beam of flame with his hands and condensed it into a gust of wind with his mental power. He put his hand beside his mouth and blew it around him with force. The flame gushed out, like life, and instantly burned around the ship, like a tornado formed by flames.
Soon after the flames passed, nothing was left on the deck, and even the table and the sun umbrella were burned.
"Wow, cool enough." Vilian whistled.
"What should I do now?" James noticed that the red algae did not give up. A large number of red algae floated towards the hull under the flow of sea water. In all directions, the hull was surrounded. Some broken hands began to climb to the deck again, and several people quickly knocked.
"I'm not a heretic." Yi Xiao suddenly said.
"What?" James was surprised.
"Heaven?" Vilian was very keen and immediately thought of the riddle on the treasure map. "Do you have a way?" she said in surprise.
"Some ideas." Yi Xiao looked at the large area of red algae on the sea surface indifferently, "but it may not be guaranteed to succeed." He turned his head and said truthfully.
"Try it."
"Grow quickly!" Yi Xiao used growth techniques directly at the red algae on the sea. He immediately large patches of red algae grew wildly, almost instantly covering the entire deck.
"You're crazy!" James lost his strength to be angry, "Do you think we didn't die fast enough?"
"What should I do now?" Verian also shouted. She was squeezed by the red algae and could not move, so she could only hope for Yi Xiao.
"There is no next step." Yi Xiao pondered for a moment and gave this sentence.
"What?!"
"The seaman is a famous church, so he is a heretic, because the wizard is not a churchman, but I am not, but my flame cannot stop the spread of red algae. Then using magic to make it grow to prove my identity is also a good way." Yi Xiao explained.
At this time, everyone discovered that the red algae did not turn into a broken wrist again, and they didn’t know where the broken wrists were before.
"Then let's go, we can't move." James didn't know which corner he was, and there was a red patch around him. There was a hole between the red algae and the red algae so that people would not suffocate to death.
"Just wait. If the inference is not wrong, the river of the sea should refer to the river of red algae composed of red algae, although common sense inference should be undercurrents."
"What's wrong inference?" Vilian couldn't help asking.
"Then pray for Merlin to bless you." Yi Xiao couldn't help but joke, and he muttered silently, "Anyway, they don't believe in God."
...
When time is silent, it will become particularly slow, especially for humans who have lost their sense of space. I don’t know how long it took, but James only remembered that he asked for questions forty-three times, and the damn wizard answered and asked him to wait for another forty-three times. Fortunately, these red algae were soft and comfortable.
Perhaps he would have been here before he died. He couldn't help but think about it, pity Xiao Al. He thought of the seaman who was scratched with his face with a broken arm, he must have died of too much blood. He was thinking about it, and the red algae around him seemed to have moved.
Because the surroundings were quiet, James obviously noticed this. Before he could ask, he heard Vilian shouting, "The red algae has retreated! The red algae has retreated!" James remembered that Vilian was close to the bow of the ship. It seemed that the red algae was retreating. Then Vilian exclaimed, "Oh! Oh my God!!" Her voice stopped suddenly.
Soon the red algae receded like a tide, James "pulled" to the ground, followed by two more plops, mixed with the oh-shots of the two seamen.
