After the old man left, Chu Yu, who was tied to the cross, looked at the palace in the distance, with thousands of sorrows filling his heart. He didn't expect that he had just escaped from the wolf's den, and now he was in the tiger's mouth again, and the situation on the island was worse than before.
The situation he had expected was much more complicated.
In the next three days, Chu Yu was tied to the cross. When it was time to eat, someone naturally brought food to Chu Yu. At noon on the third day, Nan Batian came to Chu Yu again. At this time
Chu Yu was already exhausted. Looking at the dark circles under Chu Yu's eyes, Nan Batian asked with a smile: "How is it? Have you thought clearly?"
Chu Yu nodded: "I've thought about it clearly."
"Really? Then tell me." Nan Batian was obviously not at ease with Chu Yu and asked with a hint of vigilance.
"I'll settle down when I'm here." Chu Yu said for a moment: "When I was in the Federation, I heard a saying that good birds choose trees to roost in. Now that I'm here, I naturally have to abide by the rules of the island."
"As long as I can survive, it doesn't matter if I stay on this island for the rest of my life."
"Okay, you, I didn't expect to connect so quickly." Nan Batian said with a smile: "It doesn't matter even if you lie to me, sooner or later you will give up." Nan Batian said, pointing to the sea area behind him: "
Do you know how long the sea around this island is?"
"If you travel by boat, it will take at least two days to see other islands."
"In the years after you stay on the island, you will have no chance of encountering a ship. I know you are a practitioner. You may recall that you used a piece of driftwood or something to float away from here."
"I'm telling you, if you have this idea, it's best to get rid of it immediately. You have to know that there are many man-eating whales in this area. As long as they smell the smell of humans, they will swarm here."
Seeing that Chu Yu remained silent, Nan Batian continued: "Anyway, I just want to remind you that you will follow me in the next period of time. If something happens to you, I may also be implicated."
"If you want to escape, I will definitely try my best to kill you before they punish me." After saying this, Nan Batian flashed the dagger in his hand and removed the rope tied to Chu Yu's hands and feet.
Cut it off, allowing Chu Yu to regain his freedom - those ropes couldn't trap him at all
Chu Yu, Chu Yu knows this, and so does Nan Batian. The reason why Chu Yu allowed himself to be tied up by the rope was because he knew that someone must be watching him secretly. In this strange place, Chu Yu could not take the risk of trying.
If you make a mistake, the consequences can be fatal.
After getting off the cross, Chu Yu moved his wrist, looked at Nan Batian and asked, "What should I do next?"
"Come with me." Nan Batian said and took Chu Yu to a tall building in the distance. When he arrived at the tall building, Nan Batian took Chu Yu into a secret room and picked up some bottles and jars.
He dug out a medicine jar and poured out a black pill. Nan Batian handed the pill to Chu Yu and asked Chu Yu to drink it.
"What is this?" Looking at the black pills, Chu Yu frowned and asked.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just eat it if you are told."
Seeing Nan Batian's resolute attitude, Chu Yu didn't say anything. He raised his head and swallowed the pill. After taking the pill, Chu Yu realized in the next period of time that the function of the pill was to limit the practitioner's abilities.
, but because Chu Yu had taken the Tianming Pill, this pill had little effect on Chu Yu, but Chu Yu still pretended to be weak.
After leaving the secret room, Nan Batian found a place for Chu Yu to live in. The place was in a simple shed with simple furniture. At the same time, Nan Batian also told Chu Yu what to do next - Chu Yu had to move things every day.
Stone builds house.
From here on, Chu Yu became a construction worker on the island. Chu Yu was not the only one. There were ten or twenty other people with Chu Yu. Some of these people were the original residents of the island, and some
They were latecomers, but the reason why they did such manual labor was because they made mistakes, and the reason why Chu Yu was asked to do this was because Chu Yu had just come here.
A month passed unknowingly. During this month, Chu Yu's daily life went according to plan without any surprises. He got up at six in the morning, went to carry stones at seven, had a meal at noon and rested for an hour, and got off work at five.
After work, Chu Yu would stay in his room and often
After this month, Chu Yu had a general understanding of the island. There were nearly two thousand residents on the island. The island was quite large. The young and strong labor force would grow food on the island or go fishing in the sea.
Women weave fishing nets or make clothes. Life on the island is basically self-sufficient.
During this period, Chu Yu discovered that the people on the island were basically practitioners, but their level of cultivation was relatively low. There were also people with supernatural powers who could control water and fire, but they were not powerful. During this period, Chu Yu and the original advice
I have chatted with that old man of mine several times. His name is
Wan Jinfei, because he is old and not a practitioner, the island is responsible for his three meals a day and ordinary expenses, so he does not have to worry about starving to death, but not many people care about him because he has no relatives or friends here.
After death, he will probably be burned into ashes and thrown into the sea.
From what Wan Jinfei said, Chu Yu knew that this island seemed to be very harmonious, but in fact it was divided into three, six or nine levels. The lowest level were outsiders like him and Chu Yu, then the original residents of the island, and the highest level.
They are people who live in a palace at the highest point on the island. For that palace
Chu Yu was already extremely familiar with the palace. He even wanted to get close to the palace when he was secretly checking the island in the middle of the night. However, before he got close, he felt the dangerous aura. That feeling made Chu Yu shudder.
Yu also gave up the idea of approaching the palace.
In addition to these, Chu Yu also learned two things from Wan Jinfei's mouth. The first thing was that twenty years ago, a man in the palace slaughtered an evil dragon in the sea. In Wan Jinfei's words,
, that evil dragon was twenty feet long and extremely powerful. It came to the island to cause trouble. A man flew out of the palace and fought with the evil dragon on the sea. This battle changed the color of the world and resulted in a massacre in the palace.
The evil dragon.
If he hadn't learned it from Wan Jinfei's mouth, Chu Yu would have thought that such a story was just a legend or a myth. He knew that Wan Jinfei would not lie. After hearing this story, he had to re-evaluate the strength of the people in the palace.
. He had secretly observed Nan Batian's hand. According to the alliance's practice level metaphor, Nan Batian should be a master of the Concentration Realm. However, according to Wan Jinfei, Nan Batian was just a peripheral member of the palace, so
This made Chu Yu full of worries about leaving the island.
Since arriving on the isolated island, Chu Yu has worked peacefully on the surface and has not made any unexpected moves. He only did this to paralyze Nan Batian, and his purpose of doing this has only one purpose, which is to leave this isolated island. However,
This road looks extremely difficult.
In addition to the frightening masters living in this palace, Chu Yu also discovered a secret on the island, that is, he felt that the island was moving.
Every day when the sun rises, Chu Yu will always look towards the rising sun in the east. In this month, he will do this every day. Half a month ago, he discovered that the rising sun appears at different times on the sea level, so he will look longer.
Thought it was already May,
However, there is not much difference between the sunset and sunrise times every day. However, there is a difference of at least ten seconds from the time he recorded the sun rising half a month ago. This gave Chu Yu a bold idea.
It is this island that moves on the sea.
When this idea came out of Chu Yu's mind, Chu Yu was startled. After all, this island is surrounded by the sea, and it is impossible to feel anything even when moving. He asked Wan Jin about this in a sideways way.
Flying, Wan Jinfei is not worth the fact that the island will move.
Wan Jinfei didn't know, and Chu Yu didn't ask any more questions. That day, after dinner, he returned to his room, and then quietly sat on the wooden bed and ran his own skills. When Nan Batian let him
Chu Yu had already forced the effects of the black pills he had taken out of his body and finished running the exercises.
After eating, Chu Yu waited quietly. After eight o'clock, Chu Yu got up from the bed and left the house - he learned from Wan Jinfei's mouth that at this time of every month, Nan Batian and some palaces
The peripheral personnel inside will go to the palace. At this time, the island's defense is relatively weak.
After leaving the house, Chu Yu came to the beach at night. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him. He turned over and jumped into the sea. The reason why he jumped into the sea was not to leave directly, but to verify this.
The idea of whether the island will move.
After entering the sea, Chu Yu took a breath and began to dive towards the island. After diving for a while, Chu Yu paused and quietly grabbed the convex rock under the island. He waited like this for two days.
For three seconds, Chu Yu clearly felt that the sea water was flowing slowly, but his body was close to the island.
Under the rocks, he didn’t know whether the island was moving, but Chu Yu could be sure that this island was not simple. Thinking of this, Chu Yu continued to dive down, nearly 200 meters down, Chu Yu felt
His chest could no longer withstand the pressure at the bottom of the water, so he quickly rowed toward the surface.
When he came to the surface of the water, Chu Yu took two breaths of oxygen before he felt more comfortable. During the dive just now, Chu Yu did not reach the bottom of the island. He didn't know whether the rocks under the island were connected to the seabed. If not,
The island was moving in a certain direction, and Chu Yu had no doubt about it. Returning to his room, Chu Yu decided to find another opportunity to go take a look.
After changing his clothes, Chu Yu decided to go out again to explore if there were any other secret places on the island. As soon as he came to the door, Chu Yu suddenly heard footsteps coming from the distance. He glanced outside through the crack in the door.
After a moment's hesitation, he turned back to the wooden bed and pretended to sleep.
When he came to the door of Chu Yu's room, the visitor did not stop. He opened the door and walked in. After entering the house, the visitor paused and looked at the room quietly. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, he
Walked towards Chu Yu's bedside.
The person who came was Nan Batian who was supposed to go to the palace. Nan Batian came to Chu Yu's bedside. Seeing that Chu Yu was sleeping soundly, he shouted to Chu Yu: "Chu Yu, get up."
Hearing Nan Batian's voice, Chu Yu pretended to have just woken up. After asking who it was, he turned on the bedside lamp. When he saw it was Nan Batian, he said to Nan Batian with a smile on his face:
"Brother Tian, why are you here?"
"Put on your clothes and follow me. Someone wants to see you." Nan Batian said, looking at the wet clothes under Chu Yu's bed, and frowned: "What's going on with these clothes?"
