Chapter 453

Led by Locke, Jiang Lede went to the dark basement of his house.

This place can be described by two simple words, and it is filled with a musty smell. Obviously, no one has taken care of this place for a long time.

There were many boxes beside the wall of the basement. Locke pointed to the boxes and said, "I put all the things my grandfather left me in it."

Jiang Le went to open a box. The visible dust couldn't stop flowing from the crack of the box to the ground. He saw that there were many old objects and some worthless utensils in the box.

In order not to miss clues, Jiang Le checked the past one by one, looking extra cautious.

After opening three large boxes in a row, an exquisite animal skin manual caught his attention. When Jiang Le picked it up and read it, Locke immediately came over.

"Sir, can you give me that money now?"

"Yes, as long as I confirm the relevant steps, I will transfer the money directly to you on site." Jiang Le said indifferently.

As long as you can get useful clues from Locke, Jiang Le won't lose even if he spends 200000 dollars. If you don't find any clues, you can still reimburse count Bilson at that time. In short, Jiang Le won't lose anyway.

What is recorded in this animal skin book is some daily diaries of Locke's great great grandfather. It is a little trivial and boring. Locke must have read them completely. Jiang Le quickly looked through them. Finally, after half the pages, he saw some unusual records.

[on June 18, today, I followed Mr. Bilson to the coast of Spain. It seems that Mr. Bilson found a clue about that thing]

[on July 11, we found an ancient temple that only emerged from the sea at low tide. A man walking with Mr. Bilson accidentally touched the statue at the entrance of the temple and was electrocuted by a thunder. I began to feel that this place is not as simple as I thought]

[on July 14, Mr. Bilson found an underground cavity with a curse. In order to survive, I left one of my arms]

…

The handwriting of this follow-up diary began to become very scribbled. Sometimes it was difficult for people to understand. Even the later diary was written after weeks or even months. It can be seen that this person had a great blow to him after losing an arm.

[mean Bilson!]

Jiang Le turned a few more pages, and the diary changed from the first text into a picture similar to a map. On the last page, such a paragraph suddenly appeared in Jiang Le's eyes.

Looking at the handwriting, there is no doubt that it was written by the ancestor Locke. His previous respect for the ancestor Bilson was turned into contempt and hatred on this page. Jiang Le could feel the resentment through his handwriting.

"Something must have happened." Jiang Le said secretly.

This animal skin manual account is very investigable, especially the hand-painted maps on those pages. Jiang Le's intuition makes him feel that he must take this manual account away from Locke, which may be useful in the future.

"Mr. Locke, I have confirmed your identity. There is no problem. Now the 200000 US dollars belong to you. In addition, I need to take some evidence back. Can I keep this account for a while?" Jiang Le takes out a $200000 check already prepared from his arms and pretends to be indifferent.

Locke's mind at the moment was all attracted by the check. Where did he have the leisure to take care of a hand account that he had left in the basement for many years? Let alone keep it for the time being. Even if Jiang Le wanted it, Locke didn't mind giving it directly to him.

"OK, OK, no problem." After receiving the check, Locke's mind was no longer on Jiang Le.

"Then I'll leave first. Have a nice day, Mr. Locke." Jiang Le left this sentence and left Locke's house immediately.

As an ordinary man, Locke never thought that he might be rich enough to buy half of the treasures of the Western Roman Empire in Spain in exchange for $200000.

Three days later.

"If so, this is the most complete chart." Jiang Le, sitting in front of the table, looked at the map on the table and said excitedly.

The chart given by count Bilson to Jiang Le, together with the charts drawn by hand in Roger's diary, when the two overlap, many previously neglected places on the sea near the Atlantic Ocean expose the hidden secrets one by one.

On the sea surface of the Atlantic Ocean, there is an island called "Sun Island". In Roger's account, this island is the only island marked with red lines, which is enough to represent that this island is very special.

In the sea map given by count Bilson, there is also Sun Island, but there is no key mark, which is easy to ignore the past.

The difference between the two immediately made Jiang Le interested in it. Maybe he should go to the island to have a look and explore whether there are any clues.
