Chapter 1919: Big Seal, Bamboo Slips

Chapter 1919: Big Seal, Bamboo Slips

Indian Ocean.

In a cave on an underwater island northeast of Cocosli.

Ye Yuan had just swam past a right-angle bend.

A black shadow rushed towards him.

What is it? It actually evaded my sensory detection?

You know, before turning, Ye Yuan had already checked the situation in front of the tunnel through perception.

It is precisely because the danger was not discovered.

Only then did he dare to enter here unscrupulously.

But how come we were only a dozen meters away?

You were attacked yourself?

Isn’t this unscientific?

Although it seems like a long description.

But all this happened in a flash.

Ye Yuan didn't have time to think too much.

He faced the black shadow and punched it.

The result was what he didn't expect.

The black shadow was not repelled by the attack as he had expected.

And he himself was not affected by the black shadow.

The black shadow actually changed its shape during the attack.

Sense and look at your fist.

At this moment, Ye Yuan's fist seemed to be wrapped in a layer of transparent object.

And the stinging pain from the fist.

Let Ye Yuan know that he was in big trouble.

But he didn't panic.

Just sneered.

With a thought, the transparent object wrapped around his fist disappeared.

But what followed was a dizziness and his fist turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Poisoning?

This was the result of Ye Yuan’s first reaction.

After determining that he was poisoned.

He disappeared without hesitation.

Accompanied by Ye Yuan's disappearance.

A crystal clear stone pillar rolled into the dark cave.

The light emitted from the stone beads illuminates everything around it.

Some transparent objects hanging on the cave wall.

Illuminated by the light emitted by the stone bead.

They all retreated.

Of course, Ye Yuan was destined not to be able to see everything that happened here.

At the same time, his entire body appeared in the space.

A mechanical reminder sounded beside my ear.

An unknown toxin was found and cleared, earning 2 points.

Good guy!

Is it so easy to get two points?

Look down at your palms again.

The palm that was originally pitch black.

At this moment, the original color has been restored.

Haha! This function of space is indeed useful.

This is simply a holy detoxification device.

At the same time, Ye Yuan thought of Zhao Ximin who was suffering from the poison at the moment.

If she was sent directly into the space.

Is it still necessary for the Zhao family to work so hard to find information on detoxification?

What do you want to do with this woman?

Ye Yuan suddenly realized this.

So he shook his head and dispelled those thoughts from his mind.

The poison has been resolved.

But Ye Yuan was not in a hurry to go out.

But came to a space.

He looked at the transparent object that he had moved before.

This thing looks somewhat similar to a jellyfish.

But there is a big difference.

Jellyfish usually have a mushroom-shaped appearance.

But this thing unfolds like a piece of clear plastic.

If you don't pay special attention, you may ignore its existence.

Discovered by observing Ye Yuan.

This unknown creature often shrinks and forms a transparent sphere after being attacked.

Most of the time, they appear in front of people in a flat form.

A very interesting little thing.

Although Ye Yuan still hasn't figured out what kind of creature this is.

As for why the perception did not detect him before?

It’s not because this thing has some powerful ability to block mental power.

But because it is transparent in itself.

If it is adsorbed on the wall of the cave.

It is difficult to find without careful observation.

Therefore, it was normal to ignore Ye Yuan’s previous perception.

After figuring out what this creature was, Ye Yuan did not forget where he was.

So he dodged.

When Ye Yuan appeared again, he was already in the previous cave.

When Ye Yuan appeared, he had a dagger in his hand.

And the perception spreads forward along the wall of the cave.

Good guy, it doesn’t matter if you don’t watch it.

The stone wall in front was densely covered with these unknown transparent creatures.

If someone with trypophobia saw this, they would probably have an attack, right?

Ye Yuan was still able to overcome this visual discomfort.

Swim forward cautiously.

As Ye Yuan swam, the transparent creatures around him disappeared in large numbers.

Although the specific situation of these creatures is still unclear.

But Ye Yuan didn't want to always go back to the space to detoxify.

Then, the only way is to collect these creatures into the space.

Fortunately, the mental strength of these creatures is not very strong.

Ye Yuan received it and felt no burden.

After passing through a corridor of dozens of meters.

My eyes suddenly opened up.

This is a stone cave that is more than ten square meters in size.

There were several wooden boxes originally placed in the center of the cave.

Because it has been immersed in sea water for many years, it has lost its original function.

Some bamboo slips were scattered in the cave.

Some of the words recorded on them can still be vaguely seen.

But some of them have become unrecognizable after being soaked in sea water.

"What's happening here?"

After seeing the situation inside the cave clearly.

Ye Yuan was suspended in the sea water in a daze.

Did our ancestors go through so much trouble just to hide some bamboo slips here?

Ye Yuan was a little slow to react for a moment.

Although before coming here, he didn't think there would be any security here.

But at least there should be a bronze key, right?

At the very least, there should be some diluted treasures, or something like a token of royal power.

This is worthy of the hardship of hiding the treasure so far away.

But now the situation is very busy?

How many boxes of bamboo slips?

Is this thing really so mysterious?

Ye Yuan really didn't know how to complain about the behavior of his predecessors.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in him complaining.

Let’s not worry about whether the contents recorded on these bamboo slips are related to the bronze keys that he obtained.

Anyway, I discovered it myself.

There is no reason not to take it away.

So he waved his hand.

He collected all the bamboo slips scattered throughout the cave.

Finally, I used my perception again to scan the cave of more than ten square meters.

After making sure that nothing was left out, they turned around and returned along the original route.

On the way back, Ye Yuan summarized the gains from this trip to the sea.

First of all, those boxes of bamboo slips were the biggest gain of this treasure hunt.

Secondly, there are those unknown transparent creatures.

Other than that, nothing else.

Although it is still unclear what is recorded on the bamboo slips.

But he believed that there must be some huge secret recorded on it.

Otherwise, those people would not have traveled thousands of miles to hide these things on such a mysterious island.

As for why it is hidden under the sea?

Ye Yuan could guess a thing or two.

Based on what he saw after entering the cave.

Inferred from the wooden boxes that have not been waterproofed in any way.

When this batch of bamboo slips were buried.

That island should still be a normal island on the sea.

Just because so many years have passed.

Some of the original islands on the sea will sink.

This phenomenon is not uncommon.

The reason why this situation occurs is mainly due to two reasons.

One is external factors.

As sea levels rise, the islands are submerged.

The second is internal factors.

For example, plate movement can cause islands to sink.

Or the island itself collapses.

The bottom of the island was "eaten away" like a tooth decay.

In short, this is an island that was originally above the sea.

It is common for an island to become an underwater island after some time.

So Ye Yuan inferred that those ancient people had buried the bamboo slips before.

They probably never imagined that one day the place where they hid their treasure would sink.

Otherwise, they would not have chosen this place as the treasure hiding place.

As for the value of these bamboo slips, Ye Yuan could only go back and study them further.

There's no other way. I've already used my mental power to roughly check the contents of the bamboo slips.

Although it has been corroded by sea water for so long, some of the contents on the bamboo slips can still be vaguely seen.

It's still possible to tell them apart.

It was also because Ye Yuan could distinguish the fonts on the bamboo slips.

Only then did I feel a headache.

He had already dabbled in small seal script and official script.

Ye Yuan even studied some of the bronze inscriptions on bronze ware.

But the words on these bamboo slips.

It is neither small seal script nor bronze script.

It is not the official script that was commonly used later.

But it is an earlier large seal script.

This put Ye Yuan in a difficult position.

After all, he really didn't understand the Great Seal Script.

This doesn't mean that Ye Yuan doesn't want to learn the Great Seal Script.

It’s because the large seal script is too special.

Because there is no unified standard at all.

Before the Qin Dynasty unified China.

The main font used by various countries is Dazhuan.

Before Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, each vassal state had its own unique writing system.

These writing systems are called Dazhuan.

The Great Seal script includes many different font forms.

Such as hieroglyphics and bronze inscriptions.

Writing styles and conventions vary from country to country.

The characteristic of Large Seal Script is that it is difficult to write and its radicals often change.

Due to the complexity and diversity of the writing of Large Seal Script.

There are significant differences in the structure and strokes of the characters in different countries.

This difference not only reflects the uniqueness of each country's culture, but also increases the difficulty of information exchange.

To put it simply, it’s the same text.

It is also recorded in large seal script.

But the large seal characters he wrote in different countries were different.

Therefore, this greatly increases the difficulty for future generations to learn Large Seal Script.

This is also the main reason why Ye Yuan gave up learning the Great Seal.

Because I learned the large seal script of a country.

I don’t even dare to say that I have understood the Great Seal Script.

But what he didn't expect today was...

In this underwater cave, so many bamboo slips written in large seal script were discovered.

This discovery made Ye Yuan both excited and troubled.

What’s exciting is that there are so many large seal characters as references.

In his future research on large seal characters, he will have more research materials.

But the same thing.

There are different interpretations from different perspectives.

This is also because this batch of bamboo slips were written in large seal script.

This also means that Ye Yuan wants to unlock the contents above.

It is no longer possible to accomplish it in a short period of time.

This was not quite what he had originally imagined.

But things have already happened, and there is no point in worrying about it.

At worst, I can focus on the research of large seal characters in the future.

He still doesn't believe it.

With his current brain development capabilities.

Still can’t develop a writing system?

. . . . . .

early morning.

Ye Yuan was awakened by a knock on the door.

I looked at the time and it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

It’s not that Ye Yuan likes to sleep in.

But he returned to the hotel around five o'clock yesterday.

After washing up, lie down on the bed.

I didn't fall asleep until six o'clock.

But he never expected that someone would come to wake him up so early.

With a hint of grumpiness after waking up.

Ye Yuan opened the door.

After seeing that the person standing opposite him was Yu Hongbo.

The anger that I originally wanted to vent could only turn into a bitter smile.

"Old Yu, why are you calling me so early?"

Ye Yuan said as he walked towards the washroom.

Ren Yuhongbo followed him into the room.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Seeing Ye Yuan looking like he hadn’t woken up yet.

How could Yu Hongbo not know what happened?

"Recognize the bed!"

Ye Yuan gave a very perfunctory answer.

So I went into the open washroom to wash up.

Yu Hongbo stood at the door and asked:

"We have prepared the supplies early this morning. I came to ask when you will leave?"

Yu Hongbo didn't want to disturb Ye Yuan's sleep.

But there was nothing he could do.

Everyone waited for the whole morning, but there was no sign of the captain.

So he came here with gritted teeth.

According to the custom of the White Dolphin.

Every time we stop to resupply, it is usually not too late.

Ye Yuan's abnormal behavior this time also made Yu Hongbo feel that something was wrong.

That's why he didn't let the crew come over.

Instead, he came over to ask Ye Yuan in person.

“Let’s have fun for a day, Cocosri is a nice place.

Thank you all for your hard work during this period.

So, let's all relax on the island today and set sail again tomorrow morning!"

After hearing Yu Hongbo's question, Ye Yuan thought for a moment and said.

This time he took the boat out to sea just to relax.

And avoid unnecessary harassment.

So he has no concept of time.

That's why he gave this answer.

"Uh..."

Yu Hongbo wanted to say something else.

But I thought of the phone call from Xu Hang before I set out to sea.

So he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Others don’t know what Ye Yuan has been through.

But Yu Hongbo learned something from Xu Hang.

It is precisely knowing about Ye Yuan's affairs.

Therefore, Yu Hongbo did not object to Ye Yuan's decision to stay on the island for a day.

If it were normal times.

Yu Hongbo would definitely oppose Ye Yuan's willful behavior.

Everyone comes out to fish and make money.

I'm not here to enjoy myself.

One can think of Ye Yuan’s experience some time ago.

How could he say something so inhumane?

Besides, Ye Yuan is the captain.

When he is away from home, he, as a boatswain, is not allowed to question the captain's decisions.

I got the answer from Ye Yuan.

Yu Hongbo returned to the fishing boat.

He wanted to tell the crew the news as soon as possible.

After all, there is only one day.

Since Ye Yuan wants to relax.

As crew members, there is no need for them to stay on the ship, right?

What's more, there are still many beautiful sights here in Cocos.

Watching Yu Hongbo leave the room hesitantly.

Ye Yuan didn't think much about it.

To relax, you must look relaxed.

So after washing up, he no longer felt sleepy.

After changing into some fresh clothes, I walked towards the beach not far from the hotel.
