Zhang Changgong glanced at Hai Mingzhu in the distance, lowered his voice and said, "You mean that mummy is..."

Luo Lie nodded, Zhang Changgong sighed and said, "It's best not to let your sister-in-law know about this, otherwise she won't know how sad she will be."

Everyone quickly agreed to their opinions. After the Mingzhu completed the supply, they decided to go to Mangjiao Island. First, they were to continue tracking the Black Jiao Island, and second, they did not forget that the purpose of visiting Mangjiao Island was to find a spindle-shaped copper coffin. According to the plan scheduled by Tan Ziming and others, they were to find this copper coffin to exchange for Jiang Yunxiu, the daughter of Huangpu Governor Jiang Shaoxiong.

Tan Ziming felt quite guilty about the matter of Dongshan Island. He believed that it was his arrival and brought this catastrophe to Dongshan Island. After Luo Li and his men returned, his heart was a little better. On the way to Python Jiao Island, Tan Ziming came to Luo Lie, who was thinking about him alone at the stern of the boat, and sat down.

Luo Lie glanced at him and smiled. Since returning, the two of them had no chance to speak alone.

Tan Ziming said: "Everyone is worried about you, so do I."

Luo Lie smiled and said, "I have always been lucky and I have nothing to worry about."

Tan Ziming sighed and said, "If I hadn't invited you, I might not have caused such a big trouble this time."

Luo Lie said: "Actually, you don't need to blame yourself, and no one wants such a thing to happen."

Tan Ziming said: "You don't need to comfort me. If I hadn't asked you to take this job, Zhang Changgong would not have joined this matter, and we would not have gone to Dongshan Island. If we didn't go to Dongshan Island, the Hailong Gang would not have encountered such a bad luck."

Luo Liedao: "Have you ever thought that this incident was a conspiracy from beginning to end?"

Tan Ziming didn't know what Luo Lie meant, so he looked at him in confusion.

It was only after Luo Lie who realized that the disaster on Dongshan Island should be doomed. The devastating disaster of the Hailong Gang was not brought by them. Whether they came or not, Lao An would take revenge on the Hailong Gang. However, when Chen Haodong became ill and Lao An appeared, there must be an invisible big hand to control it.

Luo Lie increasingly felt that the whole thing was a trap from the beginning. He even doubted whether there was such a coffin on Python Jiao Island. Someone was introducing them into a pre-arranged plan through Jiang Yunxiu's affairs. However, Luo Lie did not tell Tan Ziming about Lao An. First of all, this matter was long, and Tan Ziming lacked the necessary understanding of Lao An. More importantly, he promised Zhang Changgong to keep a secret in this matter and avoid Hai Mingzhu's attack after she knew it.

Tan Ziming asked, "What conspiracy did you say?"

Luo Lie said: "Don't forget that Miss Jiang's disappearance is the kidnapper leading us to this place step by step."

Tan Ziming said: "But who did he set a trap to deal with?" Tan Ziming didn't think the manipulator behind the scenes would spend so much energy on dealing with him.

Luo Lie said: "Maybe it's you, maybe it's me!"

Tan Ziming remained silent. If the manipulator behind the scenes really wanted to deal with Luo Lie, then everything that happened would become reasonable. In other words, the main responsibility for this matter might not be him. Tan Ziming changed his mind and thought, perhaps the purpose of Luo Lie deliberately said this was to make him feel less guilty. Tan Ziming nodded with deep emotion and felt a little more grateful to Luo Lie.

Luo Lie said: "Actually, many things in this world are not controlled by you and me. They happen as soon as they happen. There is no need to blame yourself, let alone be afraid. For people like us, self-blame and fear are both signs of wanting to escape." When he said this, Luo Lie turned his head and happened to see a beautiful figure reflected in the sunset on the bow of the ship.

But Tan Ziming suddenly became enlightened because of Luo Lie's words. He smiled and nodded and said, "It's right!"

When the ship came to Mangjiao Island, only when he saw Mangjiao Island in front of him could he understand why the pirates of the Sea Dragon Gang gave this place such a vulgar name. Because the sea water rises, the island, which was originally connected into one, is now only two peaks exposed on the sea surface, is oval, like two eggs.

Tsui Harding pointed to the island in the distance and said, "It's the Orange Island. In the past, the two islands were connected together, and they were like a bug. Now only part of them are exposed, most of them are flooded by the sea."

Luo Liedao: "Is this place called Python Jiao Island in the past?"

Tsui Harding said: "If you don't say it, I can hardly remember it." He is an old man from the Hailong Gang and knows everything about this area.

Shao Wei directed the Pearl to orbit along the Mangjiao Island. The current Mangjiao Island is divided into two parts: north and south. They found the Black Jiao in the bay of the North Island. The Black Jiao was parked there. I don’t know if there were anyone on the ship. For caution, they did not drive the Pearl to go directly, but put down a small boat and sent a pioneer team.

The team consists of Luo Lie, Zhang Changgong, Sparrow, Tan Ziming, Tsui Harding and two sailors. The others stayed on the Pearl and waited until they sent a signal before landing.

As dusk approaches, the sea area in this area is quite calm. They landed in the southwest corner of the bay, which has the densest grove on the North Island. Using the cover of the grove, they can avoid being discovered by the enemy to the greatest extent.

After a few people landed, Luo Lie asked the sailors to stay. This area was different from what he had originally heard from Hai Liantian's description. Hai Liantian said that the Python Jiao Island was a barren land with no grass growing on it, but the place where they landed was full of dense vegetation.

After confirming that the surroundings are safe, Luo Lie whispered: "Mr. Xu, is there a lot of vegetation here in the past?"

Tsui Harding shook his head and said, "I have never been to this island, but I have passed by here. I still remember it as a barren land. Because there is no fresh water on this island, few people will become interested in such an island."

Luo Lie nodded, and what Tsui Harding said was consistent with Hai Liantian.

Tsui Harding judged the location of the Black Dragon Docking at the bay, and everyone chose to walk through the woods and use the woods to hide their own traces to avoid premature exposure.

The sparrow walked at the front of the team. Suddenly she stopped and stretched out her arms to signal everyone to stop. Everyone was stunned. After all, no one else noticed anything abnormal. The sparrow raised the dagger in his hand and suddenly threw it out. Everyone looked at the light of the knife, but they saw that the dagger was accurately nailed to a big tree in front of them, nailing a green snake as thick as a wrist into the trunk. The dagger passed through the seven inches of the green snake and stabbed into the trunk until the last handle.

Zhang Changgong was secretly surprised. Among the people present, he knew the sparrow best. He knew the strength of the sparrow. In his impression, the sparrow did not have such strong combat power. Moreover, judging from the scene where the sparrow was aware of the dangers nearby before everyone could see the dangers nearby, this girl seemed to have undergone a complete transformation.

Luo Lie knew that the strength of the sparrows is incomparable to the past. When he was the weakest on Dongshan Island, the sparrow played a role in protecting himself. He knew that after this incident, the sparrow's physique had undergone earth-shaking changes, and its strength may increase several times or even dozens of times.

Luo Lie himself also underwent some gratifying changes. Although he lost a lot of blood and lost a lot of energy in the rescue of the sparrow, the huge energy in Luo Lie's body has never disappeared. It was just because of the time and space journey, his energy was in a sleepy state. This time, the incident successfully awakened the sleeping energy in his body, and Luo Lie's physique was also recovering quickly.

The sparrow was always paying attention to Luo Lie. Seeing Luo Lie walking at the end of the team, she took the initiative to slow down and kept moving side by side with Luo Lie, and whispered: "Can you hold on?"

Luo Lie smiled and said, "Can I hold on!"

Going up the hillside ahead, no zombies were found on the way. They came to a high place and observed the Black Dragon anchored in the bay from a high place. They pulled Black Dragon closer through the telescope and found that there was no one on the deck. Even no zombie was seen around Black Dragon.

Zhang Changgong whispered: "Strange, why aren't any of those zombies missing?"

Tsui Harding said: "Maybe they are all hiding in the cabin."

Tan Zicong said: "Look, let's talk about it!"

They waited on the spot for a while, but still did not see any movement. According to their initial plan, they were ready to understand the situation and then blow up the ship. But if there were no zombies on the Black Dragon, there would be no need to blow it up.

The sparrow said: "Why do you want to fire a shot and lure the zombies out?"

Luo Lie shook his head and rejected her suggestion. He said to Zhang Changgong: "Brother Zhang, can you shoot the sail?"

Zhang Changgong laughed. With such a big goal, not to mention him, even others would not miss it.

Luo Liedao: "The hull of Black Dragon is all wood, right?"

Zhang Changgong understood what he meant: "Burn the boat!" He took out the bow and arrow, pulled out a burst arrow from the arrow bag, aimed at the white sail on the Black Dragon, and after locking the target, the bow was like a full moon, loosened the bowstring, and shot towards the white sail like a meteor of the explosion arrow.

Zhang Changgong's arrow hit the mast, and the explosion arrow exploded and burned after it hit the mast, igniting the white sail. After the sail was ignited, the fire spread rapidly. After a while, the mast and sail of the Black Dragon began to burn.

What they could not imagine was that there was such a big noise around the Black Dragon. Judging from the current situation, the Black Dragon has been completely abandoned and there is no one on the ship.

The Mingzhu, who was patrolling the sea in the distance, saw the Black Dragon caught fire, and knew that Luo Li and his men had succeeded. Shao Wei looked at the burning Black Dragon in the distance, and he was quite puzzled. Everything went so smoothly that the Black Dragon did not even make any resistance.

Hai Mingzhu looked at the burning Black Dragon in the distance and couldn't help but shed tears. Although she was not sure whether her father was on the boat, she knew that she might never have the chance to meet her father again in her life.

The fire on the Black Dragon was getting stronger and stronger, and soon the fire spread to the ammunition depot. The flames triggered an explosion. The Black Dragon was smashed into pieces in the deafening explosion. The flames reflected the night sky red, but such a huge movement still did not attract a zombie.

Everyone decided to go to the bay where Black Dragon was located. Under the reflection of the fire, the five people came there. Black Dragon was still burning, and the beach was covered with stones of all sizes, and these oval stones were like bird eggs.

Luo Lie thought to himself that the name of this island may be related to these oval stones.

Zhang Changgong found some bloodstains nearby. These black bloodstains should be left by zombies. He sought the opinions of several other people. Everyone decided to continue following the bloodstains and had to figure out the matter clearly. Although the goals were the same, everyone's ideas were still deviated. Zhang Changgong was thinking about going to see what his father-in-law Hai Liantian had become, Tsui Harding was thinking about avenging the Hailong Gang, and Tan Ziming was thinking about the task assigned to him by the supervisor.

Only Luo Lie and Sparrow hold the purpose of exploring the truth.

After following the bloodstains for about half an hour, everyone had arrived at the top of the North Island. There was no road ahead. Below the straight cliff was a trench, which was about a hundred meters wide and opposite was the South Island.

Tan Ziming said: "Did they all go to the opposite island?"

Tsui Harding said: "Zombies are afraid of water. If they want to go to the opposite island, why don't they stop the Black Dragon directly on the opposite side? Instead, they will have to take such a big trouble and cause trouble for themselves?"

Sparrow said: "Those monsters are brainless, so it's not uncommon for any strange things to do." She was a little scared when she remembered that if Luo Lie had not saved her, she would have become a terrifying zombie now.

Luo Lie lay on the edge of the cliff and looked downward. The cliff was nearly 90 degrees and was about 300 meters away from the sea below. The ocean was pitch black at night, and the tide hit the rock wall, stirring up a snow-white wave.

The sound of the storm of the shore was sent far away with the night wind, and it sounded like a giant beast roaring for a while. Luo Lie listened for a while and said softly: "There should be a cave below. I heard the sound of the sea breeze pouring into the hollow.

Tsui Harding suggested: "It's better to let these zombies die here. Anyway, we have burned the Black Dragon, and they naturally cannot leave here without a ship."

Tan Ziming didn't want to leave like this. After all, he had not completed the task assigned by the supervisor. If he could not find the coffin, it would mean that the conditions for the robbers could not be met. It was equivalent to announcing Jiang Yunxiu's death. How could he face Jiang Shaoxiong when he went back like this? Tan Ziming also knew that he was powerless to do anything alone. The supervisor equipped him with well-equipped gunboats and well-trained soldiers. Now all this no longer exists. All he could rely on was Luo Lie. If Luo Lie gave up, he could only accept his fate. It would be impossible to go back. Perhaps from then on, he would be his destination.

Luo Lie said: "Since you are here, you have to figure out what happened!" He immediately made a decision: "I'm going to go down and take a look."

The sparrow said: "I'll go too!"

Of course, Tan Ziming refused to fall behind, and he immediately expressed his intention to walk with Luo Lie.

Luo Lie knew Tan Ziming's thoughts, and he smiled and said, "It's impossible for all five of us to go down. This is how. Brother Zhang and Sparrow and I will go down and see. Brother Tan and Mr. Xu will stay here to see us. At present, it seems that there is no danger on the North Island. We can send a signal to Shao Wei to send someone to reinforce us."

After the five people assigned the mission, Zhang Changgong took the lead in climbing along the cliff, Luo Lie and Sparrow followed. Tan Ziming saw that the three of them did not use ropes and climbed with bare hands. He immediately realized that his strength was too far from theirs. If he insisted on following them, it would only drag them down and he would not be able to help at all.

The three of them climbed along the cliff. Tan Ziming and Tsui Harding were lying on the edge of the cliff to watch. Although they did not participate in the action, they were already frightened in their eyes. Although there was sea water below, if they fell from such a height, they would probably be crushed to pieces. The cliff was almost vertical. When night fell, the sea breeze whistled. Standing by the cliff, even if they were worried that they would be blown out by the strong sea breeze.

Tsui Harding sighed in a low voice and said, "I'm old, this world belongs to young people." In fact, he didn't have such skills even when he was young.

Everything was indeed as Luo Lie expected. In the middle of the cliff, they saw a triangle hole. The hole was very regular, basically an equilateral triangle. When Zhang Changgong saw the hole, he couldn't help but remember that when they went to Pale Mountain to look for Luo Lie, the entrance to the Nine Nether Secret Realm was like this.

However, the previous entrance was obviously much smoother and there was almost no place to start. Now there is no difficulty in entering the cave entrance. Zhang Changgong was the first to enter the cave entrance, and then Luo Lie was the last one to enter.

After walking along the cave on the cliff for more than twenty meters, you can see a light blue light coming out from it. With the illumination of blue light, they no longer have to use other lighting equipment, thus avoiding exposure to light.

They continued to move forward following the blue light, and after more than a hundred steps, they suddenly realized the moment ahead. A natural cave with a diameter of about a hundred meters appeared below them. The cave was basically a circle, and more than a hundred zombies gathered in the cave.

Luo Lie made a gesture to Zhang Changgong and Sparrow. The three of them hid in the dark. They held their breath, fearing that they would be discovered by the zombies.

The center of the zombies surrounds the zombies is a square rock. On the rock is a weird man with long hair and shoulders sitting cross-legged. Because his back is facing Luo Lie and others, he can't see the person's appearance clearly.

Luo Lie found Hai Liantian from the zombies. Hai Liantian stood side by side with Chen Haodong with a machete in his hand. Their throats made a strange sound, directing the group of zombies to surround the monsters in the center.

The weird guy laughed and said, "Here you come, you are finally here!"

A hoarse voice came from the zombie team: "Yang Huaming! If you want to survive, hand over the secret."

Luo Liecheng looked in the voice and said that the person who spoke was Lao An, dressed like a mummy, and he was even more shocked that this weird man with long hair and shoulders hanging down and ragged clothes was actually Ming Huayang. Ming Huayang is one of the great enemies he will encounter in the future. These zombie viruses were improved and spread by him. In fact, after Luo Lie encountered these zombies, he felt that this zombie virus was extremely similar to those developed by Ming Huayang in the past. Now that he saw Ming Huayang appear, all his doubts were answered.

Even if Yang Huaming is not the manipulator behind the scenes, these zombies should have been created by him. It seems that it is not just himself who returned to this era. Luo Lie remembered the time and space gate created by Long Tianxin, and the Adeanna who betrayed her. Perhaps there are others who have come here through the time and space gate. The answer should be Yang Huaming.

Yang Huaming said: "If you want to kill, kill, why bother nonsense!"

Lao An Yin tested: "It's not that easy to die."

Luo Lie winked at Zhang Changgong and Sparrow. The three of them took out grenades and threw them down. The three grenades exploded in the zombie group, causing the zombies to fly in blood and flesh.

When Lao An heard the explosion, he suddenly turned around, and the zombies rushed towards Luo Li and his men's hiding place.
