Mount Koch is not too close to the royal city of Hurghada.

Xia Zuoyi followed Samuel with Judith and others.

Finally, Xia Zuoyi asked Walker to tie him up after he stepped into Koch Mountain.

It was just in the evening, and the burning clouds in the sky spread across the entire mountain, and the forest seemed to be covered with a thin layer of veil, ethereal and gorgeous.

Xia Zuoyi sat casually on a boulder by the stream.

One of his legs is stretched forward, the other is bent, his right hand wearing a leather glove rests on his knee, exposing a section of his fair wrist, which attracts the attention of others especially against the background of overlapping dark colors.

But at this moment, no one will look at it, and no one dares to look at it.

When poor Samuel was worrying about what to have for dinner, he was captured by two servants disguised as soldiers who suddenly appeared and brought him to Xia Zuoyi.

Samuel was extremely depressed.

His skills are also very good, otherwise he would not dare to venture into the mountains alone.

But he didn't expect that after two rounds, he would be beaten to the ground, and then his hands were tied. At this time, he was kneeling in front of this obviously noble young master...

Samuel couldn't help being a little nervous, not knowing exactly how he offended the other party.

Xia Zuoyi said lightly, "Samuel Fern."

Samuel looked up in surprise.

How did this noble young master know his name? !

Xia Zuoyi: "Don't you remember, we met on the ship, Dream."

As soon as he reminded.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Samuel's face, and then he suddenly looked at him: "You, you are..."

Although Samuel's mind was on Duke Bill and the Dream at that time, he only glanced at other people or objects.

But I still think of the little boy who passed him by on the deck, but...

Samuel glanced at Xia Zuoyi, and then looked at Judit who stood behind him, who was clearly a subordinate, and instantly understood that the appearance they made on the Dream was just a relationship pretended to be seen by outsiders.

In fact, the leader has always been the young boy sitting in the center.

But Samuel didn't understand that he was an honest and responsible person who only wanted to go sailing, how did he provoke this noble young master?

So he humbly asked for advice.

Xia Zuoyi thought to himself that he was indeed an interesting person. He hadn't looked flustered since he was tied up, and he was very calm and trying to escape. He was indeed a man who had experienced storms at sea.

He said: "Why did you come to Koch Mountain, we are why."

Samuel: "Are you also here for Duke Bill?!"

Xia Zuoyi: "That's right."

"Now let's talk about the reason why you came to Koch Mountain. We can have a good talk, Walker, and untie him first."

Valk nodded yes, and ordered the soldiers to loosen the rope for Samuel.

Samuel rubbed his reddened wrist and grinned. After weighing the pros and cons, he knew that he was not qualified to bargain now.

He simply said: "You are definitely not from Hulkada, but even if you are from Hulkada, you must not know as clearly as I do."

"what do you know?"

"Mount Koch is a place of special significance to Duke Bill," Samuel said.

Xia Zuoyi was a little surprised.

Because neither Rodney's notes nor the information they heard mentioned Mount Koch.

Not to mention knowing what makes Kochshan special to Duke Bill.

It's like he's playing a guessing game.

Although I got the answer directly, there are still hidden clues in the middle that I don't understand.

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help thinking to herself—could Duke Bill bury the treasure here because of the particularity of Kehe Mountain?

Samuel said: "Duke Bill never married or had children in his whole life."

"People say that he gave everything for the sea, but in fact he had a very loving lover, and the place where they met was at Koch Mountain."

Xia Zuoyi: "How did you know?"

Neither Kochshan nor Duke Bill had ever had a lover, and no one mentioned it, and naturally there was no news that he sent people to find out.

Obviously this is a hidden "easter egg", a story that Duke Bill deliberately hid.

Samuel: "I've been chasing Duke Bill for so long, and it's a normal trend to find some clues that others have missed."

"And Duke Bill is an extremely smart person, and he blatantly left some directional traces under the noses of countless people."

"Ordinary people can't find it, only I found it."

Walker couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Are you turning a corner and praising yourself as an extremely smart person?"

Samuel grinned with his unshaven mouth and said, "I am indeed."

"And I have never doubted that only if I can do what Duke Bill did, I will definitely do better than him!"

Xia Zuoyi: "Go to sea to explore new continents?"

"That's right!"

Samuel's eyes were shining with a light that could not be ignored.

"But you've already failed once."

"That was just a trial on my part."

Samuel didn't care and said, "If you don't succeed once, you can do it a second time, a third time...until you meet my death."

Samuel Fern's face was as bright as talking about dreams.

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help hitting him and said, "If you just die in Kehe Mountain, how will you realize your dream?"

"If I kill you now, will you be very unwilling?"

Samuel: "I am powerless against you."

"It is indeed very easy for you to kill me. Although I will not be reconciled that my dream has not been realized, I will still open my heart and go to the embrace of the Creator God. May the Creator God bless me!"

He sat on the ground in a casual posture, looked at Xia Zuoyi and suddenly grabbed his messy hair and laughed: "And I always feel that you won't kill me."

"Isn't it okay for me to answer the question honestly?"

"I just want to explore Duke Bill's past. I don't know what you want or have plans, but it will definitely not hinder you! I will definitely not say it later..."

"Why don't you spare my life..."

Xia Zuoyi did not give a clear statement.

He said, "How did you discover the clues left by Duke Bill?"

Samuel changed his posture and sat down: "I guess, I followed Duke Bill's way of thinking, if he wants to say something that is important in his life, it must be the Dream."

"He gave up so much to build this ship, including the girl he fell in love with."

"You can't take a woman with you when you go to sea."

"Because at sea, a woman means disaster. Duke Bill will not give up his dream of going to sea, so he reluctantly let go of his beloved lover."

"But he must regret this relationship, otherwise he wouldn't have never been married."

Samuel muttered: "Oh, if you want me to say that marrying a wife and having children is actually not in conflict with going to sea, it's a pity that I haven't met the woman I want to marry now..."

Xia Zuoyi: "I don't care about this."

"...Yes, yes, I will continue."

Samuel tugged at the front of his shirt impatiently: "I don't know if you have ever been in the cabin of the Dream?"

"No."

"If you have ever been inside, you will definitely see words and patterns engraved on ship boards or tables. There are many, many. Duke Bill likes to burn any information on his things."

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help but look at Judith and Walker.

The two nodded.

Judith said: "Indeed, but they are all daily, without any important news..."

Samuel shook his finger: "That's why I said that Duke Bill is an extremely smart and very bold person."

"Since he loves his Dream so much, how could he not take another look at her and stroke her graceful hull before leaving Hurghada."

"So I boldly guess that Duke Bill must have sneaked back to the ship afterwards."

"Also, he left some traces in conspicuous places on the ship, and it was these traces that guided me to pursue his past love and decipher the clues that he actually hid in the end!"

"That clue is Mount Koch!"

Samuel: "I'm a shipbuilder."

"I am very familiar with the structure of the ship's hull, and I also know how the ship's hull or the things on the ship will undergo changes after experiencing the waves of the sea. I can see the differences in the traces in the cabin."

It's just that Duke Bill is a burning maniac.

He left too many traces, and Samuel hadn't screened out the important information until now.

**

Xia Zuoyi let Samuel go forward according to his own ideas.

They found an abandoned cabin deep in the forest.

This was a resting place for hunters in the forest, but it was obviously useless now, but Samuel went in and found special symbols hidden under the floor and in the corners.

Xia Zuoyi recognized it as the symbol marked on the treasure map.

"You know what that means?" he asked.

Samuel: "Yes, these are the symbols that Duke Bill will mark after identifying the direction at sea, representing east, southeast, southwest..."

"He's got burnt under the table in the cabin."

Xia Zuoyi: "..."

No wonder this man would rather spend fifty silver coins to board the ship frequently.

Samuel was a little excited: "We just go in the direction suggested, and we don't know what we will find in the end."

He suddenly said to Xia Zuoyi: "You must know, right?"

Xia Zuoyi raised her eyebrows, noncommittal.

He didn't deliberately make any appearance to hide it from Samuel: "Yes, I know, and I can tell you now."

"No, no, don't say that!"

Samuel waved his hands in panic: "Please let me enjoy the joy of deciphering."

Xia Zuoyi made a gesture of invitation.

Samuel heaved a sigh of relief and led the way ahead.

They finally followed the indicated direction to a cliff edge.

Xia Zuoyi glanced at the detailed map produced by the system, and the end point marked on it was in a hidden cave under the cliff.

Seeing Xia Zuoyi's eagerness to try, Judit couldn't help asking: "Do you want to go down in person?"

Xia Zuoyi nodded: "Don't worry about me, Judit."

"You take someone to wait on it, and Valk will take me down."

"Okay, you pay attention to safety."

Although Judith was worried, he would not stop Xia Zuoyi against his wishes. The young eagles would always grow up, and it was the best choice for him to let the lord try and fly before that.

Of course, the premise of letting go is that the front is safe enough.

With the help of Walker, Xia Zuoyi slowly reached the bottom of the cliff.

After searching carefully, they found the hidden cave in the lush grass, but there was nothing in it.

"How come..." Samuel scratched his head in confusion.

Xia Zuoyi inadvertently hit the dagger on a part of the mountain wall, making an empty sound.

Walker looked over instantly: "There is a problem with the mountain wall."

There is indeed a problem.

Because the mountain wall was hollowed out by Duke Bill, and it contained the treasure he brought back from the continent he explored...

Xia Zuoyi saw ancient lithographs of abstract figures wearing eagle feather crowns, unique written descriptions, and pieces of gold the size of a palm...

He found a well-sealed piece of old parchment in an inconspicuous box.

098 popped up on the system interface: [Host, this is the sea route map, is it included in the system? 】

"Yes."

[The system is collecting... Bug repairing, please wait... The repair is complete, the sea route is updated, the host is welcome to explore at any time. 】

After 098’s voice fell, the system interface was instantly refreshed and changed—the fog around the western continent dissipated, revealing the blue sea. block.

Xia Zuoyi: "..."

Could it be that my future journey will be a sea of ​​stars? !

He couldn't help turning his eyes to Samuel.

At this moment, Samuel turned a blind eye to the gold and gemstones all over the floor, but was obsessed with touching the manuscript left by Duke Bill.

He noticed Xia Zuoyi's meaningful eyes, and couldn't help but turn pale. Are you going to be killed?

Is he really going to run into the arms of the Creator God? !

Samuel couldn't help but despair.

After all, he really didn't expect that what Duke Bill left here turned out to be a coveted treasure, and such a big secret was known to him...

This noble young master will definitely not let him go no matter what.

The flame of ecstasy at the discovery of the manuscript was instantly extinguished.

Xia Zuoyi: "Let's go."

"Please forgive me...Eh? Go, where?" Samuel couldn't help being stunned.
