Sun Jian did not agree or object. Instead, he looked at the Wash Bay in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Looking at the Wash Bay in front of him, Sun Jian suddenly thought of a legend. It was the legend of ying John's treasure.

After the death of Richard I in 1199, his younger brother John succeeded to the throne. It was said that John's greatest specialty was appreciating jewelry. He had collected countless jewelry through plundering the people. According to historical records, on October 12th, 1216, King John, who had signed the Great Constitution of the Ying Nation, was about to lead his subordinates across the Wash Bay. His luggage was loaded with a large amount of medieval treasures. However, just as they were moving forward, the tide suddenly rose, and the entire luggage cart and the jewelry loaded on it were swallowed into the sand. When the tide receded, they never found the lost treasure. For the next 700 years, the royal treasures were forgotten in the swamp.

If the historical records were correct, King John's treasure should still be in the Wash Bay in front of Sun Jian.

Thinking of this, Sun Jian rubbed his chin. Perhaps he could come over tonight.

" Mister... Mister Sun..." Sun Jian was awakened from his deep thoughts.

"Uh, what is it?" Sun Jian looked at the real estate agent in front of him and said.

" Mr. Sun, what do you think of this manor? Although it's a little shabby, it has a long history. Even in England, it's considered a high-ranking manor. Moreover, it's not expensive. It only costs 15 million pounds. This 700-year-old, 63,000-square-foot manor belongs to you. What do you think?"”The real estate agent said obsequiously.

Sun Jian rubbed his chin and thought for a moment before saying,"700 years of history, 63,000 square feet of manor for only 15 million pounds is indeed not expensive, but this place is too dilapidated. I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?”

The real estate agent was disappointed when he heard Sun Jian say that he wanted to consider it. He had thought that Sun Jian was easy to fool and that he would be able to sell the manor that he had smashed in his hands today. He did not expect to receive such a reply. This business was probably going to fall through.

Although he was very disappointed, the real estate agent still had a smile on his face and said,"Okay, okay, no problem. Call me when you've thought it through.”

"Thank you. I'll call you after I've thought about it.”Sun Jian nodded.

After feeling that there was nothing else to see, Sun Jian suggested that they go back. The group of people quickly walked out of the manor. When they reached the entrance of the manor, Sun Jian could clearly hear the people around him let out a long sigh. This made Sun Jian unable to help but feel amused. He did not expect these top-notch special forces of the Ying country to be so afraid of ghosts. He had thought that these people would not be afraid of anything, but now that they were like this, it was a little subversive of his imagination.

The car drove steadily and soon arrived at Hill Manor.

After Sun Jian and the butler got out of the car, they walked in.

At the entrance of the castle, Earl Hill stood there waiting for them with a serious expression.

"How is it? Are you alright?" Seeing Sun Jian and the others, Earl Hill spoke first.

"Hehe, don't worry, Mr. Hill. It's nothing. I'm just a little disappointed after seeing that manor.”Sun Jian shook his head and said with a smile.

" It's good that you're fine. Since you don't think that manor is good, don't buy it. I think you can lower your requirements. I think Brock can help you find a manor that you like. If you really like a manor with a long history, I'll ask Brock to help you keep an eye out. If someone sells it, I'll call you."”Earl Hill heaved a sigh of relief and suggested to Sun Jian.

He didn't want anything to happen to his friends and nephews while they were here as guests.

"Alright, Earl Hill. I will seriously consider your suggestion.”Sun Jian smiled and nodded.

…An uneventful day…

England, midnight.

In Hill Manor, other than the guards who patrolled at night, everyone else was asleep.

Although Yang Mi planned to ignore Sun Jian for two days, she couldn't help but chat with Sun Jian after he sent her a message the next day. She said she didn't want it, but she still couldn't control herself.

After Sun Jian finished chatting with Reba and Yang Mi, he didn't go to sleep. Because he was still thinking about King John's treasure.

At 12:30 at night, Sun Jian stood up in the guest room of Hill Manor, fully armed.

With a thought, Sun Jian used Earth Evasion. In an instant, Sun Jian turned into a yellow shadow and disappeared into the ground. Under the effect of Earth Evasion, even the hard cement floor and the city wall were like ordinary soil. It did not affect Sun Jian much. However, Earth Evasion was a necessary skill for killing and arson.

Sun Jian walked freely underground.

Sun Jian could feel the existence of the soil. He could feel the slight pressure of the soil on his body. It was just like the pressure of water.

In Sun Jian's eyes, the soil and sand in his vision had turned illusory.

The artifacts buried in the soil were very eye-catching after the soil and sand turned illusory.

Sun Jian could also teleport underground, just like how he could do it underwater. The only difference was that the distance was much shorter.

After moving quickly, Sun Jian finally arrived at Wash Bay.

Wash Bay was a swamp, which was very suitable for using the Earth Escape. Moreover, it was much more convenient to find things in the soil than in the water. There was no need for metal detectors at all.

With his experience in treasure hunting, Sun Jian was quite familiar with treasure hunting.

According to the historical records that he had found tonight, Sun Jian began a detailed search of the route King John took to transport the treasure.

Time slowly passed as Sun Jian searched.

After searching through all the routes in the records, he could not find a trace of the treasure.

"F * ck!" Sun Jian cursed in his heart. According to the historical records, King John's treasure story might have been a scheme that John himself had fabricated to prevent the greedy nobles of the Ying Country from coveting his treasures.

If it was true, then the legend of King John's treasure that had been circulating in the Ying Country for so long would be a huge pit.

After a round of searching, Sun Jian found a jade box 50 meters below the center of Wash Bay.

The jade box was simple and simple. It was as big as a laptop and about 20cm tall. There was also a complicated and mysterious pattern on it.

Sun Jian tried to open it, but he found that the jade box couldn't be opened at all. Even if he used the Earth Escape Technique, he couldn't take out the things inside. This jade box seemed to be able to block spells, which made Sun Jian interested.

Sun Jian took the jade box and examined it carefully. He found that the jade box was very tight and there was no gap at all. He only found a keyhole on the front.

(The results are a little bad. There doesn't seem to be many people watching!)!!)
