Hearing Samuel's question, the mercury man was slightly surprised. He looked back at Samuel and said with a smile, "How do you know?"
Samuel smiled bitterly. "It's not difficult to guess."
"You've laid out such a long string, so it must have something to do with the Moon Treasure."
The mercury man shook his head and said, "We've been living here for a long time, and it's hard for you to know how annoying it is. There's suddenly a living person. What's wrong with talking a little more?"
Samuel smiled. "Then considering your first reason is reasonable. Then you can't explain the second one."
"Is there a second one?" The mercury man looked at Samuel with interest.
"Of course." Samuel nodded. "In terms of age, you are a senior and I am a junior. You can't deny this, can you?"
"Yes." The mercury man nodded.
"If this is the case, then why such a huge treasure that is able to change everyone's fate stop in your era? Or should I say that it didn't pass down to our generation?" Samuel smiled and said, "Perhaps some other legends will gradually disappear as time passes or be forgotten by others, but things related to greed will never be forgotten."
"People's greed is endless and will never be extinguished, right?"
The mercury man did not speak, but looked at Samuel with a smile.
"Therefore, the only possibility is that the highest treasure of the Spiritual Turtle Island was taken away by someone. Naturally, the Spiritual Turtle Island lost its appeal and was gradually abandoned by someone. It eventually dissipated in the river of history. This is the truth that we have never heard of before."
"I can even assure you that you were the one who took away this treasure."
After that, Samuel looked at the mercury man calmly. The mercury man obviously had a smile on his face. After a pause, he said, "Why do you think I took it away?"
