Chapter 186 25. Arrival at W-07 and the past of the people in the West Factory [Enter the dungeon]

Early in the morning, Jinhuai Road, Fu'en City.

There was a thin morning mist on the street, the dark clouds were gloomy, and the street lights cast a warm yellow soft light, casting mottled light and shadows through the old locust leaves, illuminating the pawnshop and the small truck at the door.

Zheng Yun and Ji Dao walked out of the store with their things. A cold air mixed with a strong smell of rain hit them in the face, causing Zheng Yun to tighten his jacket and quickly walk to the front of the car.

It's autumn in a flash.

It will probably be late autumn when we come back.

"Master Xian, when can we get a new car? I saw a new energy car on my phone, which is economical and powerful."

Ji Dao smacked his lips and followed him out of the store, also wrapped in a black jacket, carrying a small suitcase, and walked around the weathered small truck, muttering softly.

This car is really a bit too simple.

Who would have thought that this is the bus of the Immortal Supervision Division? And it is the only one, besides it there are buses and subways.

If it was two or three hundred years ago, when the Immortal Supervisory Division walked out of the Duzhishisi Mansion on Jinhuai Ancient Street in Xianen City, there must be a high-quality carriage in front of the door, and the leading horse must have the blood of immortal horses.

But now, when they go out to deal with gods and ghosts, they ride a small truck with a pawnshop phone number on it.

To put it bluntly.

They look like they are buying and selling vegetables.

"It seems that you are not sleepy at all." Zheng Yun glanced at Ji Dao lightly, opened the car door, sat in the main driver's seat and started the engine, and continued: "Can you equip your Tiangong with some new energy?"

"That would be good, Tiangong can lay solar panels, and ancient books record that Tiangong has petroleum, isn't it just lacquer and kerosene." Ji Dao sat in the co-pilot and smiled.

"You can try digging." Zheng Yun took out a piece of cloth and wiped the front windshield, turned his head to look at the pawnshop, Zhang Ergou pulled down the roller shutter, and walked towards the truck with a box.

"Then I want an excavator."

Ji Dao rubbed his hands and said something shocking.

He said this out of the blue, which really made people confused for a while. It was hard to judge his idea.

Zheng Yun couldn't help laughing.

What level of magic weapon is the excavator?

"Master Xian, the excavator is good. It can do anything with accessories. Those bird droppings and horse manure should have been shoveled long ago." Zhang Ergou sat in the back seat and talked. This matter was related to his interests.

Zheng Yun didn't answer, but started the small truck and drove towards the seaside port. Along the way, he listened to Ji Dao and Zhang Ergou thinking about the excavator, and even wanted cranes and cranes.

Ten minutes later.

The small truck stopped at the port parking lot.

The three got off the car and went in two directions. They lined up with the crowd to board the cruise ship. Zheng Yun and Ji Dao bought a suite ticket with a large bathtub that could open the fairy door.

At nine o'clock in the morning.

The cruise ship set sail from the port.

This ship has a fast speed and goes directly to Kate Port south of W-07. It only stops at two islands on the way. It takes more than nine days in total. It is another boring sailing journey.

Five days passed in a flash.

The cruise ship was sailing in the sea of ​​W-05. There was a storm on the sea. The window was dark and stormy, which made people recall the past in the Qianzhou Strait.

From here to W-08, they were all familiar with the route, but compared with the entire continent and the vast sea along the way, the places they explored were just a drop in the bucket.

Zheng Yun led Ji Dao to eat a buffet on the ship, and then took out the files given by Xu Lao to analyze them together.

It was almost the fixed time.

He asked Ji Dao to watch the door in the room, and he went into the bathroom to put down the black jade pillow, opened the fairy door to go to the W-07 Museum, and contacted Kadester deep underground.

Zheng Yun would come here every day.

In the past few days, the exploration of the people in the West Factory has not made much progress, and there have been constant twists and turns, and it has stagnated near the transit island.

According to the clues, they can be sure that the salvage expedition team of Jia Si Ai Lin has stopped at this transit island, and some members even died on this island.

There are two directions of investigation here.

One is where did Jia Si Ai Lin and others go after the island transfer, and the other is what was the cause of death of those members.

But now both directions are broken.

Kadester tracked the yacht before, but the follow-up was very incredible. The yacht only stayed at the transfer island for two hours, and then hurriedly sailed east.

Li Xiya and others investigated the surrounding islands. Most people were very secretive. They tried every means to get information, but got some weird rumors that there were ghosts in the abandoned manor.

From the surface, their investigation results just corresponded to the two investigation directions, but they didn't quite match.

I don't know what the result will be today.

Zheng Yun walked out of the immortal gate, picked up the mobile phone from the jade table in the ground hall and turned it on. This mobile phone has been left here.

Kadester sent some videos.

They landed on the transfer island again this morning, walked around the beach, and found some clothes and shoes left by explorers in a forest on the edge.

Judging from the traces at the scene, these things seemed to be relics left by the victims, but no bodies were found nearby. It seemed that someone had deliberately cleaned up the place, leaving only hidden fragments.

Afterwards, the people from the West Factory went deeper again, circled the island's central ring line with weapons, found a hilltop that overlooked the entire abandoned manor, and continued to observe for a long time.

There were signs of human activity in the abandoned manor.

And the environment inside the manor was still okay.

But they monitored for about six hours and saw nothing unusual. They returned to the shore when it got dark, and met the dark-colored local fishermen at this time.

The fishing boats of these fishermen were docked next to their speedboats. Several dark-colored fishermen were standing on the shore, their dark skin almost blending into the night, staring directly at them.

Kedester spoke to the other party.

But these dark-colored people didn't say a word, as if they didn't know English, and they didn't make any movement. They just stood there and watched them pass by and board the speedboat to leave.

Licia has some guesses.

These dark fishermen were probably slaves.

It is possible that slavery still existed in this place, and these people may have been slaves kept by the owners of the manor.

In addition, Licia said that when they investigated the surrounding islands before, the number of dark-colored people was very large. Almost every ten people had six to seven dark-colored people.

This clue makes people even more confused.

The abandoned manor was built in the 19th century, when slavery did exist. Even today, there are still some slaves in many inaccessible places.

But why are there still slaves in an abandoned manor? If the owner of the manor dies unexpectedly, isn't the most important thing these slaves should do is to search for things and escape?

Zheng Yun wrote back to Kedester, asking them to wait until he went over to talk. They had been out at sea for a long time and needed to return for supplies. The two sides could meet at the surrounding large islands.

Leave your phone turned off.

Zheng Yun returned to the secret realm and closed the Xianmen mechanism. When he returned to the cruise ship, he glanced at the Yin soldiers and saw that the Yin soldiers were having breakfast. The Taoist priests and the deaf girl were distributing food, and they were eating seafood porridge.

It was a good meal.

It will be up to them to take action in two days.

Another four days passed.

The cruise ship arrived at the target port. Zheng Yun and Ji Dao walked onto the deck with their backpacks, only to see that the sky and sea were covered with clouds, and the port buildings were all in the old style of the last century.

Use a telescope to look into the distance.

Most of this port city is made of stone buildings, with skyscrapers built in the last century in the center, but at the edge of the city, there are still wooden houses that have survived to this day.

Coming here is like coming to the West in the 20th century or even the 19th century. The entire port has a strong smell of gold mining, even more gold mining than the town of La Maine.

A layer of industrial smog hangs over the city.

The gold rush boom led to the development of the local metallurgical and mining industry. Many ores were processed locally and then shipped away, but all the profits were plundered by capital, resulting in no development at all in the local area, and it was forever fixed in the 20th century.

W-07, Kate Harbor.

For Zheng Yun, this is another new environment waiting to be explored, and everything within his field of vision is very novel.

"Master Immortal, our journey has not been smooth. It has been cloudy from beginning to end, and this place smells like burning."

Kidou wrinkled his nose and muttered.

As a descendant of the ancient East, he broke into this last century style and could not understand the unique charm of this city.

Zheng Yun read the guide on the boat.

In fact, Kate Harbor is barely considered a tourist attraction, and many people come here to travel. It is the largest city in the southeastern sea, and it still belongs to the United Kingdom until this moment.

However, the surrounding situation is complicated.

Kate Port is located southeast of the opening of the W-07Λ-shaped foggy sea. There are more than 80 large and small countries and independent forces in the many islands on the periphery and deep in the mainland.

The Dusi Ruins Museum they go to every day is not here, but on the continent southwest of the Λ-shaped Sea of ​​Mist. That continent is far away from the opening of the Sea of ​​Mist, but it is larger in area.

The East has a lot of influence here, that continent belongs to the East at the moment, and there are many Chinese in Kate Harbor.

There are many historical issues here.

But it has nothing to do with their trip to sea this time.

As the cruise ship docked and entered the port, Zheng Yun led Ji Dao down the gangway and transferred to a small cruise ship at the same port.

Zheng Yun bought some gadgets for Jiang Meng in the souvenir shop at the port, and also bought some for others.

W-07 is very rich in minerals, including various gemstones, especially tourmalines and red sapphires. They are everywhere on the streets, and the price of buying raw stones directly is very cheap.

Waited two hours at the port.

The cruise ship set sail again to another island, where Kedester and everyone in Xichang were already waiting for him.

Zheng Yun originally wanted Ji Dao to go to the Dusi Museum to take a look first, but out of fear of the abandoned manor, he decided to take Ji Dao with him first and then go to the museum to catch ghosts in two days.

After another voyage.

At 7pm local time.

Zheng Yun and Ji Dao got off the boat again and really stepped on hard ground. Ji Dao rarely took boats and lived in Tiangong all year round, so he developed some symptoms of seasickness.

Walk out of the port with your backpack on your back.

As soon as they walked onto the main street, three off-road vehicles drove up to the left and stopped directly in front of the two of them. As the windows slowly rolled down, several familiar faces were revealed in the car.

"Chief, is this going well?"

Licia opened the door and jumped out of the car with a smile on her face. She was wearing crisp adventure equipment, long boots covering her slender calves, and her snow-white skin was slightly tanned.

She is a Nordic with black hair and black eyes.

Now I look more or less like an Oriental.

The mysterious temperament of a Western fortune teller has also transformed into another flavor, becoming much more cheerful.

"Well enough."

Zheng Yun nodded.

Li Xiya is also an old acquaintance. When she suddenly appeared in the Hades Pavilion and wanted to ask for the Queen's Seal from me, I felt as if I was facing a great enemy and was extremely defensive. But now, she gave me a sense of security.

Bang, bang, bang, the sound of doors closing on the left side came one after another.

Kadester and the others all got off the car. There were eleven people in the West Factory, and all of them were here at this moment, even the rich second-generation Oliphia who had no adventure ability.

Everyone had a smile on their face, and it seemed that they were enjoying it. This spirit of adventure was admirable.

However, just looking at this scene was still quite strange. A dozen Westerners wearing professional adventure equipment came to pick up two casual Orientals, as if they were doing something illegal.

"Let's talk about it in another place."

Zheng Yun carried a backpack and took Ji Dao to the car.

Although the West Factory was called the West Factory, only Kadester and Li Xiya could speak Chinese. The others were in the learning stage and could only communicate with Zheng Yun in English for the time being.

On the way, Kadester gave a general introduction to the situation.

Zheng Yun already knew most of the information. Kadester and Li Xiya only talked about the internal situation of the West Factory.

In the box that Kadester took out from the safe, there were cash and gold that he had saved a long time ago. The way an explorer like him saves money is almost the same as hiding treasure.

He took out more than 700,000 pounds.

700,000 pounds 20 years ago...

This money is meaningless to him. He left some for his daughter and used the rest to track down Garth Aileen.

There are also richer gold diggers Monoto and second-generation rich Oliphia. The former's gold digger family started from W-07, and the latter's family has a hotel business locally.

They provided millions of exploration funds for the West Factory, but this money is just pocket money for them. Even if they don't join the West Factory, they will probably use it to explore the unknown.

Zheng Yun was speechless.

The West Factory is richer than the Immortal Supervisor.

Because their unit is pounds.

Before going out to sea, Ji Dao said that he wanted an excavator, and he didn't say a word. In comparison, the West Factory is really too rich.

But you can't say that.

If Ji Dao sold a few antiques from the Heavenly Palace, it would not be a problem for him to buy a hundred excavators. It would be a piece of cake to sell tens of millions, and the unit is also pounds.

But it didn't work that way.

Whether it was the Immortal Cave or this time, their goal was to snatch the Triton heritage from the British Museum and Western explorers, but they turned around and sold the antiques for money?

In addition to money.

There are other things in the West Factory. They all have some pasts, and some of the problems need to be dealt with.

As the eldest sister of La Maine Town, Li Xiya mentioned a few things on the way. Oliphia, Monoto and even herself hope to get help from Triton.

Her mystic family has an ancestral enemy.

Oliphia wants to fight for the family property.

Monoto has an enemy who is harmful to the destruction of his family.

In addition to Kadester's action to find Garth Irene this time, all the people in the West Factory have some side quests.

There were no such things originally.

Zheng Yun seduced them.

Oliphia is playful and adventurous, so she is not qualified to inherit the family property; Monoto is already 70 years old and has let go of the past; Kadester has been trapped for 20 years and has no power to find anyone.

Only Lixia has some hope. At the beginning, she was only one kilometres away from cracking the Hades Pavilion. If she could find the real ghost seal, she might be able to fulfill her wish with her own ability.

No one else has that ability.

But after becoming a member of the West Factory, everything is completely different. They have the support of the Sea Guard Immortal Supervisor, and the wishes in their hearts are no longer wishes, and they can all try.

Ming Dynasty Sea Guard.

God and Ghost Supervisor Immortal Supervisor.

This hidden force.

Represents strange and unpredictable abilities and power.

The West Factory provides them with an opportunity to take out the thoughts that have been suppressed in their hearts and turn them over again.

Especially Monoto.

He played guitar in La Maine for more than ten years. Every day, he played and sang those old songs from the gold rush era by the campfire in front of the bar. Did he let go of those past events?

Is he really relieved?

Or was he forced to let go?

Zheng Yun glanced through the rearview mirror. The people in the two cars behind were still talking and laughing with each other with smiles on their faces. Monoto insisted on continuing the adventure here at an old age.

So that's it.

No wonder they were laughing.

No wonder they spent a lot of money.

This is really not forced by themselves.

This matter has nothing to do with Wang Xi at all, and it has nothing to do with their identity as ghost soldiers. They and the West Factory are running in both directions. If there is a chance, they will also achieve success in both directions.

Thinking of this.

Zheng Yun was also relieved a little.

Originally, he was really embarrassed to spend the money of the West Factory. Now he is more or less embarrassed and relieved.

It is equivalent to an internal commission.

He took several million pounds.

Things can also be done for them.

As long as they can survive this mission, there will be opportunities for everything, and there is no need for the Immortal Supervision Department to take action. The people in the West Factory can help each other to complete it.

Except for Oliphia, this little girl is reckless and she is indeed not qualified to inherit the family inheritance. Don't waste her family. Let's talk about it after she is more mature and stable.
