Chapter Thirty-Six: Infighting
Is Wang Ping really not curious about what treasures are in that senior monk cave?
Of course not!
His curiosity is actually not worse than anyone else, but he can control his curiosity and will not put himself in danger because of this curiosity.
For him, no matter how good the treasure on the mountain was, it was not something he could own.
Even if he wants to know what treasures are on the mountain, he can still ask Gu Feng later.
In this case, why did he risk being plotted against him and go to the mountain?
On the contrary, staying at the foot of the mountain not only allows you to avoid risks, but also obtain treasures that he can truly possess.
Wang Ping had long been thinking about the huge corpse of the five black-scaled crocodiles.
While Meng Changyou and others are now focusing on the cave of the senior monk on the mountain, he can go back and put all the corpses into the "Heaven and Earth Sheep".
In this way, even if Meng Changyou and others come back and find that the body has disappeared, he can explain that he was obsessed with the sight of the body and burned it.
As long as I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I believe that even if Meng Changyou and others want to break their heads, they would not have thought that he had such a strange thing as "Heaven and Earth Shell".
As long as the corpses of these five black-scaled crocodiles were eaten, the golden-patterned shrimps he kept in the "Heaven and Earth Shell" would probably become adults in a few months, and even those underage phantom cloud clams may have adult clam monsters.
At the same time, the pets Xiaofeng and Baiyu inside will also benefit greatly. Baiyu may even enter adulthood early and grow into giant birds that can fly manned.
In this way, Wang Ping was forced to come to Tianxin Island this time, which was truly worth it.
He acted very quickly and soon arrived at the place where the five black-scaled crocodile bodies were abandoned, and then quickly put one into the "Heaven and Earth Shell".
After that, he found a large number of branches and leaves to build a fire, which was to send a signal to Meng Changyou and others that he was in the mountains and forests, and to prepare for explanation excuses that might be needed in the future.
Time passed slowly, and soon half an hour passed.
In the past half an hour, Wang Ping had already grilled more than a dozen skewers of crocodile meat and had a mouth full of oil.
The fire that was originally lit was gradually extinguished because he did not continue to add new firewood.
Just as Wang Ping had enough food and drank, thinking about when Meng Changyou and others would come back, a sound of scolding suddenly sounded from the mountain peak not far away.
Hearing the scolding, Wang Ping was shocked and suddenly stood up from the ground.
Then he quickly climbed up a nearby tree with a look of surprise and doubt, and soon saw the situation on the mountain there.
On the mountain, Meng Changyou was besieged by Zhao Jing, Gu Feng, and Wang Jun, while Zhou Xu and Du Ming disappeared, not knowing whether it was life or death.
The shouts he heard just now were exactly what Meng Changyou said.
Seeing this situation, Wang Ping's eyes flashed with worry, and he realized that what he was worried about had happened.
In fact, after hearing Gu Feng say that this trip was to explore the cave left by a senior monk, Wang Ping was worried that everyone in the team would have internal conflicts because the benefits they discovered were too great in the end.
The benefits are touching. If the benefits found in the cave of the senior monks are too great, so great that after one person or two people are distributed, they can be worthy of the next decade and decades of demon hunting, then it will easily cause internal strife.
On the contrary, if the interests are average, no one will break up for that little benefit and take risks to fight with immortal cultivators with similar cultivation.
Now it seems that this inconspicuous senior monk cave obviously has extremely precious treasures, which has triggered internal conflicts among Meng Changyou and others.
But this kind of internal strife is not a good thing for Wang Ping.
Generally speaking, after an internal strife, in order to prevent the internal strife from spreading, those who know about it will be silenced.
Although Wang Ping was brought by Gu Feng, since he did not participate in this internal strife, in order to prevent him from leaking the secrets afterwards, Gu Feng would definitely not be rude to him.
Wang Ping knew this very well.
So although he saw Gu Feng and the other two gaining the upper hand, he had no intention of being happy, and he did not jump out to help Meng Changyou.
Fortunately, since he had long thought that there might be internal strife in the team, he naturally thought of a way to escape.
At this time, after seeing Meng Changyou and others fighting in internal conflicts, he immediately implemented his plan as planned, jumped off the treetops and rushed towards the harbor where the sea boats were docked.
There was only one sea boat. As long as he rushed over in advance and controlled the sea boat and forced the mortal boatman to raise an anchor to drive the ship out of the harbor, Meng Changyou and others could only stay on this Tianxin Island for life.
This is also considered God’s punishment for them!
However, Wang Ping thought everything very well, but when he actually arrived at the harbor where the ship was, he was stunned.
I saw that the sea ship that had broken down and docked in the harbor was no longer in the harbor, and I don’t know where I went.
What's going on?
Could it be that those mortal boatmen drove the boat away without authorization?
Wang Ping looked at the empty natural harbor and his first reaction was that the mortal boatman drove away the ship without authorization.
It’s not his fault for thinking this way. After all, such a large sea ship docked here. Even if it was attacked by monsters and the sea ship was sunk by monsters, there should be a large number of fragments of driftwood on the sea surface.
But where did the mortal boatman get the courage to drive the sea boat without authorization?
It is important to know that there are countless monsters in the sea. If there are no immortal cultivators escorting the ship, it is simply a daydream to those mortal boatmen who want to return to Jinzhu Island safely.
"Yes, this must be a backup plan for Meng Chang!"
"The sea boat is owned by Chang-Chang, and the boatman is also a servant he has used for many years. He must have advised the boatman in advance and asked the boatman to leave the harbor after we get on the island."
"In this way, no matter what happened on the island in the end, without his orders from Changyou, Meng will recall the sea boat, no one can leave this Tianxin Island!"
Wang Ping looked back at the place where he came, and soon understood the tricks in his heart.
For him, this result is not stingy with a bolt from the blue.
The situation is now very clear. As the weakest among the few teams on the island, no matter who wins the final victory, it is unlikely that he will take him away from Tianxin Island.
If everything goes on as usual, his best result will be to be thrown on the island and fend for himself.
"No, I must not let the situation develop like this. I must find a way to break the situation and find a way to board the Shanghai boat and return to Jinzhu Island!"
Wang Ping clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes gradually showed a firm look, as if he had made up some determination.
