Chapter 190 Betrayal
"A miracle! What a miracle!"
"Is this the legendary Golden Island? It's so beautiful."
Countless compliments came from all around, and everyone was attracted by the shocking beauty in front of them.
As the ship approaches, the appearance of [Golden Island] gradually emerges in front of our eyes.
A hundred meters away from the sea is a small island that exudes golden light. Different from the darkness around it, this small island seems to be a bright light in the dark night.
Surrounded by curls of light smoke, elegant fairy birds fly, which is beautiful.
The ship is docked on a floating platform, and a white jade staircase leads up to the floating island like a road to the sky, which is shocking.
It's a pity that these are the beautiful scenery in other people's eyes, and Xu Jiang is destined not to be lucky enough to enjoy this grand occasion.
‘Qianji, turn on lone wolf mode.’
"Received! Lone wolf mode started successfully."
The Thousand Body is a mecha with very comprehensive functions. This [Lone Wolf] mode is just right for the situation at hand.
Black Shark and others are not well-intentioned and want to plot against Xu Jiang. Of course, Xu Jiang will not share the aura of the mecha.
When the [Lone Wolf] mode is turned on, it means that Xu Jiang has no teammates, and the aura only works on him alone.
No matter how glamorous the world is seen by the people around him, in Xu Jiang's view, it is a hideous and terrifying demon's lair.
The staircase to the sky is made of a pile of bones, and the golden island shines like a giant skull.
Looking at the green smoke birds around, they are just three-eyed crows singing lowly in the red blood.
"Let's go in, too."
Although he knew that the front was dangerous, Xu Jiang was an expert in art and was brave. He had seen all the big demons before, so naturally this small devil island could not scare him.
I stepped on the stairs of bones and walked all the way up.
The novices, who were dazzled by the wealth, have forgotten what the ghost captain just told them: it is very dangerous here.
In their view, this is a welfare island.
As soon as I set foot on the flying island, I faced a huge treasure pool, which was slowly filled with gold, exotic crystals, purple equipment, legendary accessories, etc.
Just take some out and it will be an unparalleled wealth.
Some people couldn't help it on the spot, jumped down, hugged these treasures and laughed.
But don’t think about it, are there such good things in the world?
The armor you are hugging now is a skeleton! You even kissed its head, ugh! You have such a strong taste.
There are also some people who are lucky enough to pick up some treasures and want to take them back, but they are all snakes, insects, rats, ants, skeletons and carrion.
It exudes a bloody aura all the time, interfering with human consciousness, and these people are afraid that they will become useless.
Turning his head, he asked Black Shark: "Where are we going now?"
"Go north, go all the way and open a hidden ruins." Black Shark took out the map and looked at it, quickly confirming the direction.
"But what to do with those people?" Xu Jiang glanced around.
People who are backed by powerful forces basically know the taboos of this golden island. Things here cannot be taken casually.
As for Black Shark and the others, each of them carries a big head of a catfish monster on their backs. They can tell at a glance that this is a hidden mission. Naturally, some people want to follow them quietly and get some benefits.
Black Shark shook the scars on his face and said disdainfully: "Don't worry about them. The ruins are very dangerous and there is no use for them to keep up."
Xu Jiang shrugged noncommittally and followed the three of them.
It can be seen that the map in Black Shark's hand has a very thorough research on Alcatraz Island.
Entering the big forest, passing through the entrances of two canyons, and then passing through a big tree hole, the scenery suddenly opened up.
It is not a very grand small mausoleum, but it is built of white stone and gold sculptures. There are eternal fires burning in all directions, and a jade door reveals the majestic and vicissitudes of life.
Before Xu Jiang could say anything, the passers-by following behind him had already rushed forward like crazy. Their scrambling posture was comparable to that of a tomb robber.
Unfortunately, there are restrictions in the mausoleum temple, and before the door has been pried open, the surrounding fire has suddenly attacked, forming a fire dragon, burning all these thieves to ashes.
The terrifying power scared everyone and ran back.
They were obviously in a state of embarrassment, but they still wanted to stay. One or two of them just looked at Xu Jiang and the others, eagerly waiting for a piece of the pie.
Seeing that the restriction was still strong, Black Shark nodded with satisfaction and said to Xu Jiang: "Mr. Xu, wait a moment, I will open the door of the ruins right now."
After saying that, the three men from Black Shark carried the monster's head to the small square of the ruins and placed it in front of a relief.
The ghost fire whirled and attacked, but it did not attack the person. Instead, it melted the head into blood and slowly seeped into the ground.
After doing this, Black Shark and another minion walked to the jade gate and pushed it inward hard.
This time, after the tribute was presented, the door opened smoothly, but through the crack of the door, all that could be seen was the dark environment inside.
On the other side, Gong Zi also took advantage of Black Shark's departure and walked to Xu Jiang's side, reminding him in a low voice:
"We'll go in later, Xu Jiang, you have to be careful. Keep the treasure in your own hands first, and be careful of them crossing the river and destroying the bridge."
Gong Zi still faced Xu Jiang, hoping that Xu Jiang would not suffer a loss in the ruins this time.
Soon, Black Shark came back. He was still smiling, and it seemed that everything was going very smoothly.
With a gesture of his hand, he made way for Xu Jiang: "Mr. Xu, this is the ruins we mentioned. There are a lot of guards inside, and we can't clear them out. Please help, sir."
Hearing this, some onlookers who were not afraid of death rushed in without saying a word.
Some of them learned from their experience and stayed where they were, waiting as if they wanted to see Xu Jiang's actions.
Xu Jiang, on the other hand, did not take a step now. He stood on the same spot, glanced at the black shark leisurely, and asked: "Is this the trap you set for me?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three people changed drastically.
Black Shark tried his best to apologize: "How could it be possible? We are in a cooperative relationship. There are definitely dangers, but where do we start talking about traps?"
"It was Gong Zi who told me that your boss wanted to burn bridges across the river."
"Xu Jiang, you!!" Gong Zi was stunned on the spot.
He never expected that Xu Jiang would confess him at this time. Was he about to fall out directly?
When Hei Shark heard this, his face instantly darkened, he silently grasped the hilt of his sword, and looked at Gong Zi with a serious look.
"The boss has taken you very seriously, but you actually said bad things about the boss behind his back? Are you slandering us?"
"I, I didn't..." Gong Zi didn't know how to explain, so he could only lean towards Xu Jiang.
If there is a conflict later, Xu Jiang can still save him.
Unexpectedly, Xu Jiang did something even more extraordinary. He actually took a few more steps to the side, leaving the empty space for the three of them, while muttering:
"Even though he said it, I can't stand this betrayal. Come on, chop him to death. I'll wait."
Xu Jiang's indifference shocked the onlookers.
Isn’t it promised that Xu Jiang has a good character and is known as one of the “Top Ten Civilized Youths of Yong’an”? Why did he even sell his brother? He’s here to help you!
But then, they realized something was wrong.
Because Black Shark didn't take action, but looked at Xu Jiang in shock.
As for the good brother Gong Zi, he was sweating profusely and his eyes were erratic with fear.
"You, you saw it?" Gong Zi asked tremblingly.
Xu Jiang put his hands on his chest and rolled his eyes with disdain: "I've seen it a long time ago! It's such a pity that money can change you as a person, but it can't change your acting skills."
