"The sky is the earth, and the earth is the sky. So that's what it means." Caesar nodded and said, "From the perspective of the crew on the 'yamal', the mirage is another world, the sky is the dark sea, reflecting the aurora in the real sky, and the earth is those white islands. Because it is a projected illusion, there is no concept of time at all. The scene described by Vincent is exactly the same as the one depicted in the 'Isle of Death'. He accidentally got a coffin, so he naturally thought that the painting and the scene he saw were all real."
But the appearance of the coffin is still puzzling. The life rope is clearly put on a sailor, but when it is pulled up, it becomes a black coffin of unknown material, exactly the same as the one recorded in the painting... If Vincent and Sasha did not lie, they may have really approached the strange legendary island.
"Vincent believed that the appearance of the coffin was related to the heroic spirit of Xi Te Li, so he used the coffin to place Xi Te Li's body." Chu Tianjiao said, "An even more magical thing happened. The body of Xi Te Li placed in the coffin actually stopped decaying."
"After telling these things, Vincent was very depressed. He said that was the moment he was closest to the 'Land of Eternal Life' so far. Over the years, he has never seen the 'Hem of God', the magical iceberg, or the island in the iceberg. He regretted that he missed the opportunity. That might be the only chance in his life to resurrect their leader, but he didn't grasp it." Chu Tianjiao said, "He has been staying in the Arctic Circle for these years. Even if he has spent all his money, gone bankrupt, and is about to die of old age, he still prays to God to give him a second chance, and the heroic spirit of the leader to guide him again, even if it costs him his life or any price."
Sometimes faith can save a life, and sometimes faith can kill a person, like Vincent.
When the Neizu Empire was declining, he was still a young man, an insignificant little person beside the great Fuhrer. A young man in his twenties had not even formed a complete worldview. He only knew that the Fuhrer was right, great, and omnipotent, just like every brainwashed idiot... Later, Neizu was destroyed, Xite fled, and his outlook on life suffered a huge blow.
So Vincent did everything he could to find Xiteli's base camp in Antarctica, and was determined to resurrect his leader. For most people in this world, the Nei Zun is a symbol of the devil, but for Vincent, the Nei Zun is his lifelong belief. His life is composed of countless dense swastikas. He is seriously ill. Anyone can say that he is a lunatic, but medicine will not define him as a mental patient because he has his own logic. So he insisted on wearing a military uniform in his room even though he was too old to walk. He also saluted and bowed when he saw the corpse of the leader. He lived his whole life in the echoes and glorious memories of the past wars. Even if he was old and dying, he did not need any medicine or treatment. His faith was his best medicine.
This kind of person lives for faith and can die for faith.
"You haven't finished your story yet, right?" Nuonuo suddenly looked at Chu Tianjiao and said, "You only told the part that Vincent and Sasha told you. Their part is complete, but you haven't told your part yet."
"My part?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Nuonuo, with a barely detectable smile on his face, "How can you be so sure that I must have encountered something on the 'Yamal'?"
"Because of your personality, you are definitely not someone who will easily trust others just because you heard a story from them, no matter how sincere his emotions are, or how logical he is. No matter how self-righteous you are, you even have some kind of evidence. "Nono looked at Chu Tianjiao, shook her head slowly and said, "If you only heard these things from Vincent and Sasha, you would not tell us with such a firm tone, even if they have the rare corpse, the painting, and the black coffin. You are undoubtedly a smart person. I have seen many smart people. All smart people are extremely self-centered. The only thing that can make them believe 100% is what they see with their own eyes. "
"So you are also this kind of smart person, right?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Nono and asked back, smiling.
"Yes." Nono nodded without hesitation, looking calm and generous, and didn't care whether such an answer would make her look narcissistic or even conceited.
"You are right. If it were before, I would totally agree with you, but now I want to correct one thing." Chu Tianjiao said, "Really smart people, even if they see it with their own eyes, will not believe it 100%. Extremely smart people live in a cycle of self-justification. They are tired of thinking all their lives and never completely believe anything."
Nono thought about it and nodded: "That makes sense."
"Well, Uncle Chu, I have a question too." Lu Mingfei suddenly interrupted when he saw that Nono and Chu Tianjiao had finished chatting.
Chu Tianjiao and others looked at Lu Mingfei.
"I wonder if the 'Island of Death' that Vincent and the people on the 'Yamal' saw at the beginning was not a mirage." Lu Mingfei paused and said slowly, "Could the so-called 'Island of Death' have originally been an island that existed underwater?"
An island that exists underwater, this sounds so far-fetched, everyone subconsciously thinks that this idea is too far-fetched... But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible. There are too many things in the world of dragons that humans find incredible. There is a bronze city underwater, there are endless maze-like roads in the subway, and there is a dragon eating potato chips and watching TV. For example, there is an illusory iceberg in the Arctic Circle, and there is an underwater island hidden in the iceberg. What's so strange about it?
They are hybrids themselves, which are beyond human cognition. It is not surprising that the world of dragons, let alone things related to the Dragon King, would be difficult for them to understand.
"Senior sister, you have thought of this a long time ago, right?" Lu Mingfei looked at Nuonuo and asked.
When Lu Mingfei proposed this conjecture just now, everyone's expression changed, except Nuonuo, who was calm.
"Well... if that iceberg is a mirage, and the island under the sea is also a mirage, then the Dragon King of the Arctic Circle is too incompetent." Nono nodded and said, "An island originally hidden under the water will appear with a huge and illusory iceberg, causing a rare natural wonder like 'God's Skirt'. This is reasonable. The sky is the earth, the earth is the sky, and the sky and the earth are reversed. Isn't this the underwater world?"
Nono's words are only incredible, but if you think about it seriously, it is completely logical. If the legendary "Island of Death" is really a Nibelung, then it should have such a style. Now even human technology can create some natural wonders, not to mention the power of the Dragon King?
And the world in the reflection under the sea... Indeed, that is the real upside-down world. It is not a mirage, but a real substance.
If there is such a mysterious place in the world, it must be a Nibelung.
"So the crew of the Yamal really salvaged a coffin from the sea." Caesar showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "That is the coffin of the Island of Death. The island originally existed under the sea, so the coffin appeared from underwater."
Everyone understood. Although no one knew why the crew member who fell into the water inexplicably turned into a coffin, Caesar's analysis just proved the view that "the Island of Death existed underwater."
"You are the most talented young people I have ever seen." Chu Tianjiao looked at the juniors in the room, not hiding the admiration in his eyes.
"So can you tell us what happened after that?" Nono asked Chu Tianjiao.
"What an impatient girl." Chu Tianjiao looked at Nono and said, "But to be honest, I actually admire girls with your personality."
So that's it, Chu Zihang glanced at Chu Tianjiao and thought silently, because his mother is also impatient in many things.
"Hey, young man, help me go to the wine cabinet and hand me the bottle of wine at the bottom of the second row." Chu Tianjiao waved to Finger.
"That bottle of antique rum from Iceland?" Finger's eyes lit up. He had walked around Chu Tianjiao's tavern several times and had memorized all the expensive wines in it.
The bottle Chu Tianjiao mentioned was called "Fugetskul", the best among rums. It was found in the aging room by a drinker. It was placed for two hundred years before it was brewed. It is a rare treasure worth six figures!
"I knew you were greedy for my wine." Chu Tianjiao laughed and scolded, "Take a few more cups. No matter how expensive the wine is, it is for drinking. This is the first time I welcome guests to this room. What's more, you are all my son's friends and our lifesavers. No matter how expensive the wine is, I can treat you. There is nothing I can't tell you about those things back then."
Finger took out a few cups from the cabinet very familiarly, and drooled while pouring wine. It seemed that he had been greedy for this wine for a long time... Others pricked up their ears, waiting for Chu Tianjiao to tell him what happened next.
"After that, Vincent invited me to drink. Before I could refuse, Sasha came over with boxes of rum. Before I could say anything, Sasha stuffed two bottles of wine into Vincent's and my hands and clinked glasses with us without saying anything." Chu Tianjiao said, "The old guy seemed to have changed when he picked up the bottle. His face was ruddy and his words were sharp. Can you believe that an old man who was about to die would drink high-proof rum from the bottle?"
Everyone imagined the scene. It was really scary. An old man with a haggard face and skinny like a skeleton suddenly blew rum from the bottle with full energy. The incongruity of this picture was no different from a dragon standing on two legs and dancing in front of you.
"The old guy and Sasha took turns clinking glasses with me. Every time they clinked glasses, the old guy called me the 'son of destiny'. This title made me inexplicably irritated. I told the old guy impatiently that I was not the 'son of destiny', but just a mortal. The old guy said that he had just witnessed my 'divine power' with his own eyes. How could someone with 'divine power' be a mortal?" Chu Tianjiao took a sip of wine and said, "I said that it was not a 'divine power'. You can understand it as some kind of 'special ability'. There are a lot of people with 'special abilities' in the world. I am not a special character, but the old guy was unbearably stubborn. He said that since there are so many such people in the world, why only I appeared on the 'Yamal', only I appeared in front of him, and he would see me today. This is the guidance of the Führer's heroic spirit."
"This old thing is really clingy." Fingel took a big sip of wine, "It's like brown sugar."
"I also felt annoyed at the time, what a 'son of destiny', what a 'head of state', this old guy was basically brainwashed by Xite Jin, and now he wants to wash my brain again, I looked at him coldly, I I just came here for what I care about. Once the matter is cleared up, I have no reason to stay on this boat. I know that the old guy with a billion dollars will definitely not be able to pay it out, but I got the information from him, and I also The person who killed him, for the sake of his sincerity, canceled the money he owed me." Chu Tianjiao said, "The old guy was so anxious that he knelt down in front of me and refused to let me go. When I left, he said that he had missed one opportunity and could not miss the second one. If I left like this, I don’t know when he would be able to resurrect the Führer. He didn’t have a few years left to live. I would probably be him. Last chance."
"But you still rejected him, right?" Chu Zihang asked Chu Tianjiao. In this aspect, he and Chu Tianjiao have the same personality. When treating his own people, he is caring like a grandma, and when he treats strangers, he is cold and cold. lump of pig iron.
"Yes, I said it has nothing to do with me whether your head of state is resurrected. It is a good thing if he does not resurrect. The world will be peaceful. If he is resurrected, the world will be in chaos." Chu Tianjiao nodded and said, "Actually, what I was thinking Vincent has already told me the information about the Nibelung. He happened to encounter it just once more than ten years ago, and I won’t gain anything by staying on the ship.”
"Vincent and I are not the same person. Now that he has lost his use value, there is no need for me to continue to waste time on him. I am quite interested in his coffin, but it is too big and very difficult to use." It’s difficult to take away, and if I take away the vessel containing the head of state, the old guy will kill me, so I finished my drink and prepared to leave.” Chu Tianjiao said in a cold tone, “Vincent is still here. To persuade me, he said that the Führer actually has many treasures in the world, and he knows a few clues. If I am willing to help him find a way to resurrect the Führer, he will definitely share those clues with me, and it will only take up one year of my time. "
