Chapter 1588 Gold Coast
After everything was ready, everyone left the wheelhouse and came to the lower deck.
Zero glanced at the others and said calmly, "It's best for this ship to dock here. If it encounters any danger on the island, it can return to the original route and use the last bit of oil to temporarily leave the island to avoid repairs."
After hearing this proposal, Barbarossa and others nodded slightly in approval. Although they decided to go to the island, the danger on the island still cannot be ignored, and it would be best to have a way out.
"But there's a problem I have to point out." Mandy looked at August, who was dragged down and slumped next to him like a dead dog. "Now he is the only one who insists on staying on the yacht. After we get off, he will What should I do if the yacht leaves? Although there is indeed not much fuel in the tank, it is still okay to go some distance away from the island. "
"It would be nice if you took the key away." Anna said subconsciously.
"It's not safe. After the key is taken away, what should I do if he becomes angry and wreaks havoc and damages the yacht?" Mandy further raised questions. She always speculates on the dangers of people's hearts with the worst possible intentions.
The eyes of Barbarossa and Nakhimov changed when they looked at August, while August looked confused.
"Then what do you want to do?" Zero looked at Mandy.
"Tie him up and throw him on the bed. Put some food and water next to him to make sure he doesn't starve to death." Mandy put forward her own idea.
"We cannot bear this risk." Barbarossa and Nakhimov stood up and shook their heads and said, "Mr. August, you'd better go to the island with us. Who is the best person on this yacht?" No one will stay, so stop here as our only escape route.”
"You are crazy, I will never get off the boat! That island is full of man-eating monsters!" Before August, who was weak on the ground, was halfway yelling, Nakhimov and Barbarossa turned to each other. With their eyes, they went over and lifted August up.
"Now it seems that the only problem has been solved." Mandy said as she watched the three people being dragged down waist-deep water towards the beach.
"Are you two hybrids?" Anna couldn't help but ask Zero and Mandy in a low voice.
"Is it Lu Mingfei who told you about the mixed race? Don't ask too many questions that you shouldn't ask, or you might get into trouble." Mandy put the package behind her back, jumped off the deck, and waded into the water. island beach.
Zero and Anna waded to the island together, and when they reached the edge of the beach, they suddenly heard Nakhimov and Barbarossa, who were the first to land on the island, shouting with joy not far away.
After they stepped onto the beach and walked over, they saw the two men kneeling on the ground like crazy, holding the golden gravel in their hands and pointing it at the sunlight shining above their heads, letting the gravel fall from their fingers.
Before Anna could figure out what these two guys were doing, she heard someone talking to herself not far away, "So that's it, saying that there is gold everywhere in Atlantis is really not a lie."
Anna looked over and found that Mandy, who had landed on the island first, was currently bending over and groping for something on the edge of the beach with her ankles in the water. She grabbed some soft golden sand with her right hand and put it on the surface of the naturally rising and receding sea water, letting those The soft white sand is naturally washed away by the sea water, and the remaining particles in the palm of the hand continue to reflect bright light in the sun.
"These are" Anna's eyes widened, looking in disbelief at the golden particles rolling around in Mandy's hand.
Seeing this, Ling bent down and grabbed a handful of golden sand from the beach. No need for seawater filtration, the soft white sand naturally flowed down from his fingers. The number of golden particles left in the palm of his hand was so large that it was visible to the naked eye.
"The rock gold in the mountain was washed by the river, and the gold and quartz veins were separated into small particles of gold. There is no doubt that this is placer gold." Mandy clapped her hands and glanced at the entire river, which reflected a strange light in the sun. Looking at the coastline, he exclaimed in wonder, "When I saw the glittering gold on this beach before, I thought it was just an illusion caused by diffuse light reflection. After a long time, I found out that these are really gold."
The entire golden coastline is covered?
Anna stared blankly at the extremely broad Gold Coast, which stretched to the end of her sight.
Is this coastline at least several thousand meters long? The beaches along the coast are all golden. Could it be said that the coast of the entire island is composed of this content of placer gold? How much gold will there be after being panned out? There should be several thousand tons, right? As the country with the largest gold reserves, the United States only has 8,133 tons of gold reserves, but the total amount of sand and gravel on this entire coastline is more than a thousand tons?
"The legend is true." Anna was trembling all over. It was the excitement of verifying what she had been pursuing.
Not far away, Mandy walked on foot to the vicinity of the savage who had been killed by the spinyback dragon before. She found the stone spear that was thrown out. After picking it up, she wiped the tip of the spear, which was exposed under the dust and soil. Sure enough, it was the beautiful golden color as she thought. This was not a stone spear at all, but a golden spear!
"I am the emperor's golden pole and the savage's golden spear." Mandy weighed the weight of the golden spear and put aside the spear shaft. The polished spear head weighed two or three kilograms, right? If you take it back and resell it, how many years of good life can you have without worries about food and clothing?
Looking further into the distance, the Spinosaurus left in the direction and ate the savages. This would probably satisfy the monster for a while and not come back to cause trouble for them?
She turned towards Zero and Anna, and casually threw the spear to Anna, "Take it, for self-defense."
"Is this also made of gold?" Anna felt the weight of the spear was wrong as soon as she took it in her hand. She checked the tip of the spear and was shocked to the point of numbness.
"It's not just ordinary gold. I'm afraid it can be used as alchemy material without refining." Mandy said.
"All this gold has been 'killed' by alchemy." Zero said lightly.
"Well, it's enough to drive those guys who study alchemy outside crazy. It's pure natural alchemy consumables. The traditional gold price is not enough to measure these things." Mandy grabbed a handful of gold sand and threw it in the air, watching the particles shining in the sun fall to the ground. "To be honest, if it's not unrealistic, I really want to use an excavator to shovel some back and put it away, so that I won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life."
After confirming this fact, the two men not far away have begun to indulge in the carnival. Now there are three of them. August, who was originally limp, actually got up with a last breath and joined the carnival. He dug the sand and gravel on the ground like crazy just to filter out more gold.
The three men were doing the same thing, constantly digging up the sand, then filtering out the gold in the sea water and putting it in the bag. Mandy and Zero did not stop them, but just looked at them coldly, watching the three men as if they were watching a joke.
"Let's go." Mandy was tired of watching, waved her hand and walked towards the bush forest deep in the beach, "They will react in a while."
"React to what?" Anna hurriedly caught up with Mandy and Zero. She looked at Zero and Mandy who were indifferent to the golden beach and couldn't help asking, "Are you not tempted by gold at all?"
"It's a lie to say that I'm not tempted, but if they sift the gold like they do, they will be exhausted and can't sift out enough gold to buy a yacht again." Mandy put her hands on the back of her head and walked forward, "If they are smart, they will react. If gold sand can be found, there must be rock gold nearby, or even a whole gold vein. Picking up two nuggets of gold is much faster than sifting for gold sand like a fool. "
"Besides, you are not tempted, are you?" Mandy looked at Anna jokingly, "Gold is something that you have to take away with you even if you have the chance to get it." She looked up at the entrance to the vast primeval forest in front of her and sighed, "Let's complete the main purpose of this trip first."
"So what are you going to do next?" Zero asked, tightening the package behind him.
"Collect some dry leaves and wood along the way, and then climb to the highest point on the island as much as possible to light the signal smoke. If the living people on the island see the smoke, they will naturally be attracted." Mandy already had a plan.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting wild men like the ones just now?"
"Being tied up will only make things more troublesome. The longer you stay on this island, the greater the risk." Mandy didn't want to complicate things. "Find a high place, light a cigarette, and wait for half a day. If the person I'm waiting for comes, then everyone will be happy and go home together. If no one comes, then we will turn around and leave without delay."
"It seems that your friend doesn't seem to be particularly important to you." Zero looked at Mandy and said.
"We are like sisters! But if you want me to take more risks, I'm sorry, I have to pay more." Mandy shrugged.
"Is this a naked fern? Shouldn't this fern be extinct?" Anna had run to the front of Zero and Mandy not far away, squatting in front of the entrance line of the primeval forest to observe the plants, "There are also seed ferns and shovel ferns. Oh my God, is this a star-shaped royal palm? How come so many animals and plants that should have been extinct survive on this island!?"
"Sometimes I really doubt whether you are an expert in archaeology or zoology and botany. How come you know everything?" Mandy heard Anna's muttering, shook her head and looked up at her, but with this glance, her blood solidified instantly, and the temperature almost dropped to freezing point.
She and Zero jumped out almost at the same time, and both of them completed the bloodline refining at the same time. They rushed to Anna like the wind, grabbed her collar from behind, and pulled her aside!
Almost instantly, a huge dinosaur head knocked down the bushes and trees in front of Anna, biting into the place where she was squatting before, and the sharp teeth violently closed together, splashing a lot of acidic liquid that corroded the ferns on the ground and produced foul-smelling green smoke!
Mandy and Ling each grabbed Anna's collar with one hand and jumped back a long distance, finally braking on the sand, staring at the giant that shook its head and came out of the forest.
The sharp fan-like back shook off countless leaves and soil used to hide itself, proving that this big guy was the Spinosaurus that had swallowed the savage alive on the beach in front of them before!
It never left, and after eating the savage, it chose to hide cleverly, using leaves and soil to conceal itself, and only launched an attack when Mandy and others came ashore!
"What the hell." Mandy stared at the hideous head.
This also means that this dinosaur recognized what the yacht on the sea was from the beginning. Its brain, which was not known to be much bigger than a walnut, had the concept of "human creation", and it also knew that its hunting was observed by people! But from beginning to end, it showed no interest in the yacht, paralyzing everyone!
It bit into nothing, and the dark golden eyes of the Spinosaurus stared at Mandy and the other two as it swept its head. Its mouth spit out sand and broken trees, and slightly cracked. Under the horrified gaze of the three people, it actually showed a terrifying smile! ?
Watching the ancient beast that was dozens of meters long and covered with scales and armor slowly walking out of the forest, Mandy's heart was alarmed.
This guy must have a high level of intelligence! And it is definitely not an ordinary ancient beast!
