Chapter 2859 Once a treasure hunter
"I am lawless and unscrupulous in doing things."
It can be seen that Qiao Yuanfan's face was very ugly: "Yes, we have great power, and we can also determine the life and death of many people, but this is not the reason for us to abuse our rights. Can the whole family still get away with it? And this Thomson really thinks no matter what he does, no one cares about?"
"This Thomson has always been the number one thug under the slap of Wiki." Hesra quickly replied: "In the past, he could still control it, but later on, he didn't care about anything at all. Professor Randall's affairs are definitely not an individual case. There are many people who have been harmed by Thomson, and I have a friend who was also harmed by him."
"Your friend?" Qiao Yuanfan looked at him: "You seem to be doing these things deliberately today?"
"Yes, Mr. Joe, I did it intentionally." Hesra said very calmly: "Because I want bad people to be punished, I want justice to be served, and that's the only thing I want to do."
Qiao Yuanfan was silent for a moment: "Where is your friend?"
"His name is Hofilli. He used to be a treasure hunter, and he was a specialist in search of legendary treasures." Hesla said calmly: "Just like Professor Randall, I called him here, and I am waiting for your call."
Qiao Yuanfan sighed softly: "Let him come in."
Hofil is in his fifties, and is very thin and in a very poor spirit. He doesn't look like a treasure hunter at all.
"I was seriously injured, very serious, very serious," Hofeli said frankly: "But I have lived until now because I don't want to die like this, and no one knows my story."
Qiao Yuanfan looked at him: "Then, tell me your story."
"Yes, sir, I will tell you without missing a word."
Hofeli said slowly: "At that time, I was attracted by the romance in the treasure hunt, so I embarked on the road to finding treasures. I have found some treasures, but they are all small treasures. I always fantasize about one day, I can get the whereabouts of a big treasure, and then, I can find them."
These are just Hoffili's fantasies.
Where are the clues of those legendary huge treasures that are so easy to find?
Until one day, the appearance of a person completely changed Hofeli's life.
"That man claims to be Thomson."
Thomson found Hofil in a tavern, and he asked Hofil to have a drink: "I heard you found Mario's treasure?"
Hofil didn't care about this person, nor did he hide anything. After all, this is something that treasure hunters all know: "Yes, I found Mario's treasure, but there was only one silver cup and some armor. I sold all of them, which was not enough to make up for my expenses for this treasure hunt."
"I know, I know." Thomson smiled: "In legend, Mario's treasure is amazing, and some people even say that gold coins alone contain several boxes, right?"
Hofeli smiled bitterly.
Yes, I believed this legend and went to search for treasure without hesitation.
"There are many legends of treasures, which are actually nothing, or in other words, even if there is really such a treasure, how many can it be? No one can tell it clearly."
Thomson's voice sounded very young, which did not match his deliberately hidden appearance, but his words were logical and organized:
"However, not every treasure is like this. There are still many real treasures in this world waiting for us to discover."
As a treasure hunter, I am of course full of expectations for these words.
Thomson said calmly: "Have you heard of Lohaud's treasure?"
The legendary pirate heritage of Lohode Island is in Australia, with an island called Lohode.
In the 1770s, a man named William Phipos accidentally discovered a map of the Island of Lohode, marked with the sinking ground of the Spanish merchant ship "Gold". He was ecstatic and felt that an opportunity to make a fortune had arrived.
It turned out that there was a mysterious story about the "Gold" merchant ship. It was in the 1650s and 1670s. The Spanish went on a journey of Columbus to expedition to the Americas, plundering countless gold, silver and jewelry from the Indians, and then returned home with a full cabin.
However, their actions were noticed by the pirates.
So, the pirates crazily attacked every passing merchant ship, killed crew members, and robbed a large amount of treasures. The pirates could not take them all, so they buried the remaining part on the Island of Lohaud and drew treasure maps.
The pirates made bloody vows to keep the secrets strictly and to enjoy this ill-gotten fortune forever. But the pirates were pirates after all, and there was no credit at all. Some conspirators tried to take over the treasures themselves, and for a moment, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and a fire left behind corpses. The winners carried the treasure map to mingle the world, living a life of luxury and luxury.
The legend of Zangjin Island spread wildly and became popular all over the world.
Phipos, holding this treasure map that was unknown to the truth, climbed onto the deserted island and surveyed everywhere, but he found nothing.
Just as he was wandering on the beach, he accidentally fell into the sand and touched a foreign object. After being excavated, it was a cluster of exquisite large corals. There was an exquisite wooden box hidden in the coral, filled with gold coins, silver coins and rare treasures.
Phipos was extremely ecstatic. He stayed on the island for 3 months, searching wildly. A total of 30 tons of gold, silver and jewelry filled his schooner, and he realized his dream of becoming rich.
News of Phipos making a fortune spread like a hurricane, and a wave of gold hunting swept across Lohode Island and nearby waters.
The homeless men, adventurers and even princes and nobles traveled thousands of miles to this deserted island. People believe that the treasures discovered by Phipos are only a very small part of the pirate heritage, so where are the more treasures?
For a time, many true and false "treasure maps" emerged, flooding Europe, selling them at high prices, and many wealthy men bought them at a high price, and spared no expense.
What's the result?
Many people were either buried at the bottom of the sea, died suddenly in the deserted island, or searched hard for a long time. The legacy of pirates has become a mystery full of temptation.
"Louhoud's treasure?" Hofeli was excited: "Of course I've heard of it, and I have also purchased a so-called Louhoud's treasure, but in the end it turned out that it was just a fake treasure map."
As a treasure hunter, it is normal to buy a fake treasure map.
"Look at this thing." Thomson pushed a yellowed parchment in front of Hofeli.
