after one day.
Captain Jack Sparrow sat in a skiff, holding the pot of dirt like a frightened child.
Elizabeth and Norrington sat across from him, both trying to be as serious as possible about the captain's absurdity.Pantel and Rajetti were in charge of rowing the boat to Cruise Island.
"You rowed too slowly," Rajetti replied. "We don't want to be caught by sea monsters."
When the name of the sea monster was mentioned, Jack couldn't help shivering.
"So I'm going to save some energy for it," Pantel said, "and I don't think it's called a 'sea monster,' I've always heard it called a 'black monster.'"
Jack shuddered again.
"What? Is there a long a? In the Scandinavian language it originated from, it's pronounced o." Rajetti replied, leaning on the oar.
"So 'sea monster' is closer to its original pronunciation."
Suddenly they heard a noise in the water, and the two of them paddled quickly. They could discuss this topic later.
Landing at last, Jack jumped out of the boat gratefully, took off his jacket, and patted his pockets to make sure the amnesty was still there.
He put his jacket and cans on the bow, then took a shovel: "Watch the boat, watch out for the high tide."
He ordered Pantel and Rajetti, Jack thrust the compass into Elizabeth's hand, and together they walked towards the beach.
When they came across an abandoned church, Norrington said: "I don't think anybody's coming here."
"No." Elizabeth replied.
"You know this place?" Jack asked in surprise.
"Heard it in the story," Elizabeth said as she walked, "that the church came to the island and brought salvation, sickness, and death. The story says the priest had to bury them all, one by one, In the end he was driven mad and hanged himself."
"It's better to be crazy with the world than to be sober alone," Norrington said.
Elizabeth stared at him, seeing a very different Norrington from the man she had known.
The cynical man is no longer the Commodore she used to know.
Jack interrupted her train of thought and said, "Honey, don't get close to the helper I've hired."
Elizabeth looked down at the compass with displeasure and continued on.
All of a sudden the pointer started spinning—they found the place!
Jack made a fork in the sand with the toe of his shoe and handed Norrington the shovel.
Meanwhile, the Flying Dutchman had reached an outer reef on Cruise Island, and Davy Jones saw the boat through a telescope.
"They've arrived." He stomped on the deck angrily. "I won't be able to go ashore for nearly ten years!"
"Do you trust us to do things for you?" Max asked him.
"I hope you all know what will be waiting for you if you don't do your job well!"
Jones said emphatically, "Dive!" he ordered the crew.
Max nodded and shouted: "Dive, dive."
The bow of the Flying Dutchman sank into the turquoise water, and the waves broke onto the deck.
After a while, the whole ship sank into the sea, and it was moving rapidly underwater, as if being pushed down by an invisible big hand.
The school of fish quickly swam across the water and went straight to Cruise Island to the Dutchman, and the hull stirred up layers of white foam on the water surface.
Pantel and Rajetti sat on the sand, staring blankly at the churning sea, then at each other in horror, and then they jumped up, dropped the boat, and ran off to report to the others.
......
Jack's time was running out, and he and Elizabeth stood eagerly by the hole Norrington had dug.
When the shovel hit something hard with a clang, everyone froze for a moment.
They smashed that treasure chest!
Jack jumped into the hole and helped lift the treasure chest out.
Jack quickly picked the lock of the box with the shovel.
He knelt down to open the case, which contained a memento of a lost love: a string of white pearls, a white dress, some dried flowers and a faded love letter.
Jack peeled these things apart and found a box.
He took the box out of the treasure chest.
The box was bounded by iron bars and locked tightly, but every muffled beat could still be heard from inside.
"It's true!" gasped Elizabeth.

Chapter 267 The dark side of ambition!
"It's true!" gasped Elizabeth.
Norrington said in surprise, "So you told the truth."
Jack raised his eyebrows and said, "I actually tell a lot of the truth, but people still get surprised."
"It's like I said I could use his hands to find Jones' weakness."
Although Jack failed to get the desire compass that had fallen into Chen Feng's hands, he still learned the location of Cruise Island from Chen Feng's mouth with his thick skin, and he was close to getting rid of Davy Jones' clutches completely. took a step.
Of course, what he didn't know was that all of this was within the overall situation set up by Chen Feng.
Whether it is Jack, Barbossa, Elizabeth or Will Turner, they are just a pawn in the overall situation...
"There's a reason for that," said a voice.
Everyone turned to see Will Turner, walking towards them out of breath and drenched.
Elizabeth held her breath in amazement and ran towards Will.
"Will, are you okay!" She put her arms around Will's neck.
