Chapter 238

"Mr. Jiang, you have completely cured Xiaozhi's disease. I really don't know how to thank you!"

At the banquet, Bai Wenyuan sighed gratefully: "Originally, I wanted Xiaozhi to serve you all her life, but... Xiaozhi does not have this blessing!"

"Chairman Bai is serious. The Mercedes-Benz you gave me is Miss Bai's medical fee. After I received the medical fee, I naturally had to cure her illness. You don't have to be polite anymore." Jiang Zhonglou said calmly.

.

"In your eyes, I am just one of your patients!"

Bai Zhi pouted her mouth depressedly.

"Of course...no, we are still good friends!" Jiang Zhonglou sighed.

"Hmph! Since we are good friends, why are you avoiding me all day?" Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at Jiang Zhonglou.

"That's all, Mr. Jiang is an expert in this world, you must stop being unruly and willful, otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even be friends anymore!" Bai Wenyuan sighed.

"oh..."

Bai Zhi then ate her meal with her head down.

After dinner, Bai Zhi said: "Jiang Zhonglou, let's go to the room and play games?"

"No, I have something to ask Chairman Bai."

"What's the matter? Why didn't you say anything when we were eating just now?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.

"Because you are here."

Jiang Zhonglou glanced at Bai Zhi.

"You... have something to say that you can't let me listen to?" Bai Zhi was speechless.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, let's go for a walk in the garden to eat!"

Bai Wenyuan smiled.

"good."

Jiang Zhonglou got up and took a walk with Bai Wenyuan in the Bai family's garden.

"Mr. Jiang, what's the matter with you?" Bai Wenyuan got straight to the point.

"I met two old men from the Ye family and the Su family yesterday." Jiang Zhonglou also got straight to the point.

"This...what did they tell you?" Bai Wenyuan was stunned.

"They told me everything. They want to join forces with me to find the treasure of Insect Island..."

Jiang Zhonglou smiled calmly: "I came here today just to ask if you are interested in joining us?"

"this..."

Bai Wenyuan's forehead suddenly broke out into thin sweat.

Now that Jiang Zhonglou knows about the treasure on Chongming Island, it can be seen that Su Feng and Ye Shen really told Jiang Zhonglou everything.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, it's not that I deliberately concealed it, but the matter about the treasure of Chongming Island is very important, so I didn't tell you before..." Bai Wenyuan sighed.

"I understand this. I don't mean to blame you. I really just came to ask you if you are willing to join forces with us." Jiang Zhonglou smiled.

"Of course I do!"

Bai Wenyuan sighed: "As long as you take action, even if there is no Su family and Ye family, you will definitely be able to find the treasure of Chongming Island. Naturally, I will also take a ride!"

"Okay, then you have to be a little sincere..."

Jiang Zhonglou smiled meaningfully again.

"Natural, this is natural..."

Bai Wenyuan sighed: "I will naturally tell you the formula of our Bai family!"

"Oh? Do you, the Bai family, really have any secrets about the treasures of Chongming Island?"

Although Jiang Zhonglou hinted at Bai Wenyuan just now, he didn't hold out much hope.

Unexpectedly, Bai Wenyuan was willing to say that formula directly.

"Yes, the ancestors of our Bai family were the orderlies of the pirate leader of Chongming Island a hundred years ago. In fact, they did not have much status. They just followed the pirate leader and heard this mantra..."

Bai Wenyuan and Jiang Zhonglou sat down on a chair in the garden, and sighed again: "The mantra only has four sentences and sixteen words... I worship the barbarian, the world is flooded, and the evil spirit cannot move forward.

"

"If you worship me as a barbarian, the world will be flooded... If you pay attention to the Ming Dynasty and Jie Yu, the evil spirits will not move forward?"

After listening to the Bai family's formula, Jiang Zhonglou couldn't help but frowned and was confused: "Isn't this... the legend of two birds in mythology?"

"That's right! Mr. Jiang is indeed very knowledgeable in Chinese studies, and he actually knows the legends of the Manman Bird and the Chongming Bird!" Bai Wenyuan praised.

"Uh... I'm sorry. I just read it in the Classic of Mountains and Seas by chance. I'm not sure about the details. You'd better explain it to me."

Jiang Zhonglou said.

Naturally, he had memorized "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" by heart under the supervision of his master since he was a child.

Moreover, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" contains some magical anecdotes about strange animals, which are much more interesting than those ancient books written by "Confucius". Jiang Chonglou memorized them more familiarly than other books.

However, Jiang Chonglou always believed that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" was just a book of myths and legends, and had never connected it with reality.

It wasn't until last time that Su Ye said that the shape of the black jade lock on his neck was a pair of barbarian birds, also known as the legendary winged birds, that Jiang Zhonglou checked the information about the barbarian birds on the Internet.

As for the Chongming Bird, it is not actually recorded in the famous "Shan Hai Jing", but is recorded in other ancient books...

"It is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that there is a kind of bird on Chongwu Mountain called the Manman Bird. It has only one eye and one wing. Therefore, the female bird and the male bird must entwine their necks to fly..."

Bai Wenyuan explained: "So, they never leave each other throughout their lives, and later they became a metaphor for the love between husband and wife...

However, when "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" first recorded the barbarian birds, it did not mention the love between male and female. Instead, it said that if someone saw the barbarian birds, the world would be in flood..."

"Well, I've also read this in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". This is what it means to worship the barbarians and flood the world. But what does it mean to emphasize the Ming Dynasty and Jie Yu and not to move forward with evil spirits?" Jiang Chonglou asked.

road.

"The record about the Chongming Bird first appeared in "Shi Yi Ji". It said that the Chongming Bird is a sacred bird that came as tribute from foreign countries. It has two eyeballs in each eye, so it is called the Chongming Bird..."

Bai Wenyuan added: "It is recorded in the book that it looks like a chicken and crows like a phoenix. Sometimes it shakes off its feathers and flies in the sky with its fleshy wings...

It is very powerful and can fight tigers, leopards and monsters. It is very fierce. Therefore, people say that it can ward off evil spirits. During the Chinese New Year, it is either carved with wood or cut out of paper and pasted on the door to ward off evil spirits...

This should be the meaning of Chongming Jieyu and evil spirits will not move forward!"

"Forehead..."

Jiang Zhonglou imagined a strange scene of a Chongming bird taking off its fur and flying in the air. He couldn't help but be stunned: "Do these legends... have anything to do with Chongming Island?"

"Have you not discovered that Chongming Island is actually Chongming Island?"

"this..."

Jiang Zhonglou was stunned: "You mean, the Insect Island is not named because of the many chirping insects, but because it has some relationship with the Chongming Bird?"

"That's right! Since there is information about Chongming Bird in the secret formula passed down by the pirates, it can be seen that Chongming Island must have been called Chongming Island before. It should be called Chongming Island because of rumors passed down by later generations."

Bai Wenyuan said.

"Even if Chongming Island was originally called Chongming Island, what do these barbarian birds and Chongming birds have to do with the treasures on Chongming Island?"
