I never dare to deny that other than humans, animals don't have intelligence, it's just a difference in the height. But the intelligence of the Beastmen in front of me is obviously not ordinary, it's as if the Beastman's body contains the soul of a human!

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans have brains. Animals may have intelligence, but they definitely don't have thought. But obviously, the beastmen in front of me have thoughts!

Both I and the sea were frozen in place. Facing these intelligent orcs, I felt my scalp tingle. I can now understand why the British abandoned the ship and fled. Even if they had weapons in their hands, they were facing hundreds of intelligent orcs.

In the morning light, we could see more and more Beastmen around us, densely packed together, maintaining a distance of over ten meters away from us, all staring at us with tiger like eyes, some baring their fangs, some roaring at us, some baring their fangs at us, but they just surrounded us and did not attack!

Directly ahead, to the right, and behind us were the orcs, except for the empty jungle on the left, which was meant to drive us into the jungle on the left.

In order to test if they really let us go on purpose, I pulled back the sea that was ready to fight for our lives, and then slowly got up and slowly walked towards the jungle on the left. I didn't run, I carefully stepped forward, and every step I took I looked behind me, and I noticed that I took a step, and the beastmen also took a step forward, no need to think anymore, they wanted to drive us towards the jungle on the left!

Hai Yang's entire body tensed up, her right hand firmly grabbed onto the butt of the spear: "Sanjin, are you really going to walk like this, who knows where they are driving us to?"

I panted. "I'll say it again, take it one step at a time!"

We didn't run anymore, but slowly headed towards the left side of the jungle. This was an extremely absurd scene, the two of us carefully walked in front, and behind us, there were a dense group of Beastmen driving us away. It was just like the National Army that surrendered back then, it was very funny.

Perhaps it was because we were walking too slowly, but the beastmen behind us started to shout in a restless manner, as if they wanted to urge us to run. We sped up our pace a little, and after about an hour of walking, the sky was completely bright.

The sound of water splashing could be heard in front of us. I thought, that's not right, could it be that we have made it back to the Hu Kang Valley, and I suddenly had an absurd idea. Could it be that these Beastmen want to drive us out of Wild Mountain?

But when the sea cleared the shrubbery in front of us, I knew I was wrong. Directly in front of us was a shallow stream, probably due to the rain yesterday.

We followed the stream, and from afar, we could smell a terrible stench. It was the smell of rotting corpses, and we saw that there were many corpses lying dead by the stream. When we looked carefully, we could see that they were all beastmen's corpses, some of them had just rotted and some of them had turned into white bones.

After walking along the stream for another ten minutes, the sound of water suddenly stopped. Turning around a small hill, a murky lake of stagnant water appeared before me.

The destination of the stream was this dead water lake. It was about the size of a football field and was filled with rotten Orc bones and tree branches and leaves. It was surrounded by trees and surrounded the dead water lake in the middle.

It was very obvious that this place had once been a very beautiful lake, but for some reason, the lake had turned into stagnant water.

There were a lot of plants on the surface of the dead water. There were rotten tree trunks, reeds, weeds, and nothing like the other lakes on the highlands. There were just some moss growing on the sides of the lakes.

Of course, this lake of stagnant water alone is completely unable to attract us. The most important thing is that in the middle of the lake, a gigantic Ancient Ship is currently moored.

Half of the front part of the deck had sunk into the swamp, while the rear part of the boat was sticking up high. The ship's keel was tattered, and the railings had long rotted, and some vines wrapped around the side of the Ancient Ship s body and grew on it. From a distance, the ship looked like a giant monster crawling in the lake.

The Ancient Ship had sails, but the canvas was long gone, leaving only empty shelves. The boat was two stories high, and on the side of the keel I could even see the cannon emplacement. I could vaguely see a few rusty cannons protruding from the side, slanting towards the hill that was us.

The Ancient Ship's entire body is in a mess, the front half of it is almost submerged in stagnant water, I don't know why, but the rear end is actually tilted up high, probably because there is something like a boulder under the lake behind the Ancient Ship to stop the Ancient Ship, that's why not all of them fell, after hundreds of years, there are still boats waiting for us to excavate!

This was an ancient battleship with a capacity of over a thousand people. Furthermore, it had a cannon emplacement. Clearly, it was used for war, but it was too rotten to tell which dynasty it came from!

I really wonder, why would there be an ancient warship parked in the Wild Mountain?

Could it be that a few hundred years ago, this stream was very large, and could completely carry this boat here? But the Wild Mountain was extremely desolate, and the ship had come here for what?

It was obvious that they wanted us to jump in, not do so to kill us. Just by thinking about it, it was obvious that they wanted us to come in contact with the Ancient Warship. Could it be that there was something on the warship?

Looking at the rotten corpses in the lake, I could guess that the Beastmen had tried to get close to the Ancient Ship more than once but to no avail. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many corpses inside!

Hai Yang swallowed her saliva, stared at the Ancient Ship in the lake and said: "Sanjin, looks like we are here. These beasts are trying to force us onto the Ancient Ship."

I nodded. "Could it be that they can't swim, so they can't even get close to the Ancient Ship?"

Hai Yang laughed. "Animals are animals. Even if they are intelligent, they are but a hair's breadth away from anything. Look at all those bones in the water. They all drown in the water. Which side are you looking at …"

I instantly understood that these beastmen definitely could not swim, but they also wanted to get close to the Ancient Ship, so they tried to find a way to cross the lake. Thus, they tied a vine around the tree trunk in order to use the vine to swing onto the Ancient Ship.

However, the Ancient Ship was so far away from the shore that it was impossible to get there, so many of the Beastmen fell into the water and drowned, their bodies slowly rotting.

What exactly is on the Ancient Ship that can actually attract them, one after another, and even force us onto the Ancient Ship?

Hai Yang lit a cigarette. Ignoring the roars of the beastmen behind me, she whispered, "How is it? Do you want to go?"

I thought for a moment and said, "If we don't go, these beastmen will eat us alive. If we go, there might be a chance for us to survive, but these beastmen can't swim, so when we get onto the Ancient Ship, we'll be able to think of a way. My only worry now is what is on the Ancient Ship, will there be a monster even more vicious than the beastmen?"

Hai Yang scolded, "Who cares what the f * * k it is, we'll just have to deal with it as much as we can. No matter what, it's still better than now!"

As soon as his voice fell, the Beastmen behind us had already begun to move, many Bronze Fox Face s stared at us in a strange manner and roared continuously, as though they were hundreds of foxes, causing their scalps to go numb. They stood at the edge of the lake jumping and jumping, and there were even a few that rushed behind us, wanting to push us into the lake.

We unhurriedly took out waterproof bags from our backpacks to wrap up the important items that couldn't be splashed with water. After that, we no longer hesitated and looked into the eyes of the sea before directly jumping into the water.

In that instant, the cold water engulfed his body, along with the freezing water was the stench of rotting corpses. Such stagnant water, let alone swimming in it, would make people want to vomit even if they got close to it. Furthermore, I could feel that the water was very deep, and the disgusting green water from the dead branches and rotten leaves kept drilling into their mouths.

When the beastmen standing on the shore saw that me and the sea was floating in the water and continuously heading towards the Ancient Ship, they immediately let out a series of whizzing sounds. I clenched my teeth and held my breath, desperately swimming towards the Ancient Ship.

The sea was faster than me, and in five or six minutes he had reached the bottom of the Ancient Ship. He climbed up, and by the time I got there, he had already put the things in his backpack on the boat to dry.

Looking at the Ancient Ship from up close, they could more clearly feel the ancient aura coming from the boat, especially the rusted cannons on the side of the ship, which made them feel the atmosphere of slaughter and war.

The boat was deathly still, like a huge grave, giving off a sinister aura. The bow of the boat had already tilted into the lake, and only the stern was raised high enough for us to be able to see everything on board.

The boat was littered with decaying items. Several buildings had collapsed, and there were even some white skeletons lying on the plywood. There were even some weapons from the ancient times, but they were all rotten, giving off a feeling as if they would shatter if one were to touch them.

Just as I climbed onto the ship, a loud bang rang out, the wooden board I stepped on had a huge hole smashed through it, my feet had even sunk in, this ship is simply too rotten, after being beaten by wind and rain for hundreds of years in Wild Mountain, I started to worry, would all the wooden boards not be able to take our weight?

But fortunately, this was just an unnecessary worry. When I pulled my foot out of the hole and tried to go somewhere else, aside from a series of creaking sounds, it didn't collapse. It seemed that the boat was quite sturdy.

The beastmen on the other side of the lake started shouting at us across the lake, as if they were urging us to hurry up. But when we reached the Ancient Ship s, we would have to make our own decisions, we simply didn't care about them.

Some of them jumped into the water on impulse and choked a few times, but they were immediately pulled back by the beastmen on the shore. They were so angry that they picked up the stones from the ground and threw them at the boat.

Their strength was so great that for a moment stones rained down on them, but only a few could be thrown onto the ship, and the rest fell into the water.

We rested enough on the ship, and after eating dry rations to fill our stomachs, Hai Yang put the wet stuff back into her backpack. Only then did we start to carefully inspect the entire Ancient Ship.

There must have been a war inside the Wild Mountain back then. The cabin door was completely destroyed, and the cabin was pitch black, so we couldn't see anything clearly. It was like a giant monster with its mouth wide open, waiting for us to automatically enter!

After switching on the flashlight, a blinding light shone into the cabin. We thought that the interior was filled with mountains of things, but we were all dumbfounded. The interior of the cabin was completely empty, devoid of anything.

It's like you bought a house, but there's nothing in it but four walls, and that's how it is in front of us, empty!

Hai Yang was dumbfounded as she cursed, "What the f * ck, what's going on? Was he intercepted or something? "

I thought of something, but I wasn't sure. I followed the sea into a few cabins, but the result was the same, nothing at all, as if the ship had been built to look at, and it was so empty it made my scalp tingle.

Even if it was an empty house, there should be at least some things on the ground. However, other than the four sides of the ship, there was nothing else in the cabin.

But in the last cabin we found it filled with bones, and there were traces of burning at the edges. It was obvious that the bones had been deliberately piled together, and then someone was going to set the boat on fire, but we didn't know what had happened, so the fire was immediately put out.

Which dynasty did this Ancient Warship come from, and what kind of history does it have in the Wild Mountain?

I wanted to dig all these secrets out, but there was no clue on the ship.

Just as I was about to leave the cabin filled with bones, I saw a knife that had rusted like rotten iron at the bottom left. Picking it up, I could still see the pattern carved on the knife handle.

Hai Yang picked up the scrap iron and frowned. After that, she turned the blade over and looked at the handle. Suddenly, she sucked in a breath of cold air as her face turned pale.

I hastily asked, "How is it?" "What do you see?"

Hai Yang swallowed her saliva and stared at me: "Sanjin, this is f * cking an Embroidered Spring Blade!"

"Embroidered Spring Saber?"

I felt that this name was a little familiar, but I don't remember where I heard it before. Looking at the ocean with suspicion, he said once more, "The Embroidered Spring Sabers are sabers specially used for Imperial Guard in the Ming Dynasty!"
