As expected, the boat slowly came to a stop in less than 15 minutes. Lu An stood on the balcony and looked at the island in front of him. He was looking forward to it.
After all, this was the first island that he had seen. He was also curious about what was different on an island in the sea.
Lu An got off the boat while Xiao Tong followed behind him. After all, this was the rule on the boat. If Xiao Tong did not do so, she would definitely be punished.
As the crowd got off the boat, Lu An stepped on the beach. As soon as he stepped on it, Lu An felt that the sand was extremely soft. Out of curiosity, he bent down and grabbed a handful of sand. He realized that the sand had been slapped by the waves until it could not be any finer.
The sand felt very comfortable. Lu An raised his head and looked in front of him. Behind the beach was a forest. However, there was no snow here and the plants were very lush. This made Lu An feel very strange. During this season, the land had just welcomed spring. There were very few plants that could be so lush.
Those who had been on the boat before were free to move around. Those who were on the boat for the first time were waiting for the staff to explain. However, the people in the Sky Room did not need to as their maids were very clear about this.
"Young Master, the wooden houses on the left are used for resting and eating. There are many fruits that are unique to this island and the taste is not bad. " Xiao Tong said beside Lu An, "On the right are some places for entertainment. There are some landscapes in the forest in front of us. There are even many pirate ruins."
As she spoke, Xiao Tong looked at the sea behind her and said, "The shallow sea behind us can provide diving for fun. There are many sailors in there to ensure everyone's safety. Of course, if you want to go down, you still need to know how to swim."
Lu An nodded. He looked at the forest in front of him and then looked back at the sea. Both of them wanted to go. After some consideration, he decided to enter the forest first. Otherwise, if he wet his clothes, he would have to go back to the boat to change.
"Let's go to the forest." Lu An looked forward and said.
"Yes, Young Master."
There were many people who chose to enter the forest. However, Lu An was slightly faster. With Xiao Tong leading the way, the two of them entered the forest very quickly. There were already paved roads in the forest, and there were signs all around.
"There are pirate ruins in the forest and many unique sceneries. Where would you like to go first, Young Master?" Xiao Tong asked. For some reason, the two of them seemed particularly relaxed as they walked in the forest.
"Forget about the ruins." Lu An thought for a moment and said, "Is there any special place or the most representative place?"
"Especially …" Xiao Tong thought about it seriously, but she hesitated in the end and said, "There is indeed such a place, but it's very far away and a little dangerous. We usually don't bring our guests there."
"Then let's go there." Lu An smiled and said, "I want to see it."
Hearing Lu An's order, Xiao Tong was a little worried. However, he was the master after all, and she could not disobey his orders. She could only say, "Yes, Young Master."
Following that, under Xiao Tong's guidance, the two of them walked forward side by side. As they walked, Xiao Tong explained the island's situation to Lu An with all her heart.
The island was not originally a place for sightseeing. Ten years ago, it was still a rampant pirate stronghold. The pirates here posed a huge threat to many merchant ships, and also greatly affected the trade of South Sea City.
Later on, the new mayor of South Sea City led his men and captured the island in one fell swoop. The pirates on the island either died or escaped. They were basically wiped out. It was also because of this that the sea area received a lot of peace.
Later on, in order to prevent the island from being occupied again, the mayor's office sent people to station and guard the island. Over time, it became a place for ships to dock. Many ships rested here, and many people came here for sightseeing.
That was why there were so many pirate ruins here. It was said that there were many people who came here specifically to search for treasures.
"Searching for treasures in ruins is a very interesting thing." Xiao Tong continued, "However, the ruins that can be visited have already been explored and confirmed to be safe. Therefore, there is nothing valuable in there. "
Lu An nodded. He did not expect that there would be such a thing on the island. At this time, the two of them had walked far away, and there was no one around. Lu An looked at the surrounding forest and asked, "Where are we going?"
"To a very strange place … I can't describe it." Xiao Tong thought for a while and said fearfully, "I've only been there once."
Lu An looked at Xiao Tong and was slightly stunned. He said, "Don't be afraid. If it's really dangerous, I won't force it."
Hearing Lu An's words, Xiao Tong was slightly relieved. She nodded and continued to walk beside Lu An.
After walking for a full fifteen minutes, the two of them finally reached the end of the road. There was a pure forest in front of them, and there was no path to walk on. There were collapsed trees and vines everywhere, and there were faint roars of wild beasts.
"Is it here?" Lu An turned his head and asked Xiao Tong.
"No …" Xiao Tong was a little scared. She said, "We have to walk forward and cross two big rocks."
Looking at Xiao Tong, Lu An felt a little apologetic. He said, "I'll go by myself. You can wait for me here, or you can go back first."
Xiao Tong was stunned. She looked at the surrounding environment. She would be even more scared if she was left here alone. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'll go in with you."
"Okay." Lu An nodded gently and said, "I'll ensure your safety."
After saying that, Lu An looked forward. He stepped on the grass and walked forward.
Xiao Tong quickly followed behind Lu An and carefully followed behind him. Although she was older than Lu An, she only dared to follow behind Lu An at this time.
After crossing two collapsed trees, Lu An saw the first huge rock lying on the ground. There were many bloodstains on the surface of the huge rock, and it emitted a fishy smell. Seeing this, Lu An frowned slightly and went around from the side.
After crossing a few more trees, the second rock appeared. However, what made Lu An feel strange was that there were no bloodstains on the surface of the huge rock. On the contrary, it was very clean.
Although it looked very clean, Lu An thought for a while and still chose to go around it. After going around the huge rock, he took another step forward. Suddenly, his eyes opened up!
A large open space suddenly appeared in front of him. This open space was very big, and it was the size of a mansion. However, this was not a mansion. It was a very deep pit!
Lu An stood outside the pit and looked down. The deepest part of the pit was about six feet deep. The edge of the pit was broken, and the outermost part was about two feet deep. Ordinary people would not dare to jump down from such a height.
This deep pit was obviously old. However, what was strange was that there were no plants growing in this pit. Lu An looked at the surrounding dense forest and then at the unusually clean deep pit. He felt that something was wrong.
Since he felt that something was wrong, he naturally wanted to go down and take a look.
Lu An turned around and looked at Xiao Tong. He thought for a while and said, "I want to go down. However, I'm afraid that you'll be in danger, so I'll set up a barrier to protect you."
"Barrier?" Xiao Tong was stunned and did not react.
Lu An frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he said, "Whatever happens here today, you're not allowed to tell anyone. Do you understand?"
Looking at Lu An's serious look, Xiao Tong was stunned again. However, she quickly nodded and said, "Young Master, don't worry. I won't tell anyone."
"Okay." Lu An was relieved. He raised both of his hands. In an instant, four ice walls rose from the ground around the two of them without any warning!
Seeing this, Xiao Tong was shocked. Then, she felt a bone-piercing chill. She was a little scared and leaned closer to Lu An. However, she quickly realized that it was Lu An's doing.
It turned out that her master was a Heavenly Master!
After building a small ice house around them, Lu An heaved a sigh of relief. Ordinary wild beasts would definitely not be able to break through the defense of the Deep Ice. At the same time, a piece of Deep Ice appeared on the ground and released the Nine Heavens Sacred Flame.
Suddenly, a wave of heat spread. The Nine Heavens Sacred Flame burned quietly on the Deep Ice. It could not melt the Deep Ice, nor would it be extinguished by the Deep Ice.
"This flame is used to warm you up. However, remember, don't go within three feet of it, and don't touch it. If you touch it, you'll die. " Lu An frowned and said very seriously, "Don't think that I'm joking. Once you touch it, no one can save you."
Looking at Lu An's serious expression that she had never seen before, Xiao Tong was shocked. She took a deep breath and quickly nodded. Lu An was relieved to see that his words were effective. He then prepared to leave.
"I won't be gone for too long." Lu An said, "You don't have to look for me. I'll be back soon."
After explaining everything, Lu An left the igloo. Looking at the deep pit below, he frowned and leaped into it.
