Gu Yun carefully reached out to pick up the little object, feeling that it was very well crafted, and he feared that he could break it if he used too much force: "If Shen Yi could see this thing, it would be enough for him to use his body to repay you."

Ge Pang Xiao pulled out a wrinkled up leather map - no one knew where he was able to obtain one, his plump and round finger danced around for a while then stopped at a certain point.

"With our current course, Master Liao Ran and I predicted that we will soon arrive at this place."

It was a map of various small islands in the Eastern Sea. But the image was very unclear, appearing like droplets of ink that were scattered on the page.

Gu Yun held the layout of the entire Great Liang in his heart, but he didn't remember such a place existed. There was no decent steam lamp on the merchant ship, the indoor oil lamp was dim, even if he put on the liuli glass, it was still challenging to see. He wrinkled his brows and tried to brighten the oil lamp.

Ge Pang Xiao: "This is a map that Master Liao Ran gave me. I saw that there is no such place on the map of the Ministry of War. They are generally small islands that are unlivable. The surroundings are nothing but ridges of jagged rocks and turbulent streams. There are also many ghostly and haunted legends coming from it, even the locals did not know that there is an island here."

This place was far from land. It could only be reached by air travel, if not by ships.

But 'Kites' were slow and relied heavily on the compass. If there was too much turbulence near the island, they simply could not approach - let alone the fact that the place to the east was basically the territory of the Dong Ying people, if 'Kite's' and 'Dragon's' from Great Liang continued to circle this area for no reason, it would seem quite provocative.

The maintenance of an 'Eagle' was also very demanding for the mechanics' division; it was not easy to uphold for long. The Eastern Sea was generally used to peace and was not equipped with this type of military force.

Chang Geng couldn't help but ask: "If even the map from the Ministry of War doesn't have this area, then where was Master Liao Ran able to find this?"

Ge Pang Xiao seriously replied: "He said that a rotten emperor from the previous dynasties loved pearls of the Eastern Sea, as the fishermen became powerless with the demanding yearly tribute, they set up a team of life-risking divers to go find them. On their travels, they accidentally hit this place, and made a map for it ."

Chang Geng: "..."

The monk's made-up story could only fool silly children.
