Chapter 962: They're Waiting for Me

Gu Xiaobai didn't expect that he would encounter this kind of thing.

Because there was no direct flight from Dongcheng to Vietnam, Gu Xiaobai flew from Dongcheng to Nanhai Island, arrived at the local port, and was picked up by Zhong Jun.

This is the fastest way to reach Vietnam from Dong Thanh.

At the same time, he also heard that this underwater archaeological ship, which was previously affiliated with the relevant departments, was anchored in the port of Nanhai Island.

This ship is currently the only marine exploration ship under the name of "Baisheng Maritime Survey", and if "Baisheng Maritime Survey" wants to operate, it must give full play to the role of this ship.

After all, the two ships Zhong Jun and the Dragon Palace on the Sea, one belongs to the Baisheng Center and the other belongs to the "Blue Sea Whale Riding Performing Arts Company", neither of which is under the banner of "Baisheng Haikan", and the responsibilities of the two are also different.

"Baisheng Maritime Survey" is not an enterprise under Gu Xiaobai's own name, but three joint venture companies, so if you want these three ships to work together, strictly speaking, "Baisheng Maritime Survey" needs to hire Zhong Jun and the Dragon Palace on the sea to operate.

And at the price of Zhongjun and the Dragon Palace on the Sea...... "Baisheng Haikan" can't afford to hire it now, after all, Baisheng Haikan hasn't opened yet.

Gu Xiaobai came this time to learn about the current operation of this ship, so that it could get on the right track as soon as possible.

However, as soon as he arrived at the port, he met this strange fisherman's uncle.

Hearing the crew say that this is Vietnam's territorial waters, the fisherman's uncle became irritable:

"No, you're not right, they're there! they're there! they're waiting for me! that's the boat they've been on! they're there! why don't you always believe me, why!"

He rushed to one of them, and unfolded a piece of paper in his hand, crumpled and seemingly torn from a nautical book, on which a few words were written crookedly.

"They're here, they're here, they're waiting for me, they've been waiting for me, they've been waiting for me for over a hundred years, I've finally found them, I'm going to take them home......"

Seeing the others duck backwards in fear, the fisherman clutched his head in pain: "I'm not crazy, I must find them, you believe me......"

One of the crew members was helpless and said: "It's not that we don't believe you, the place you said is indeed the territorial waters of the Vietnamese, and we can't dig into it......"

"Yes, if we go, the warships of the Vietnamese will come to drive people......"

The fisherman looked at several people in disappointment, as if he was unwilling to accept this reality, and after a long time, he suddenly scratched his unkempt head, turned around and left: "You don't go, I'll go by myself!"

Several crew members looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Uncle, wait a minute......" Gu Xiaobai stopped the fisherman's uncle.

He also thought that this uncle might have mental problems.

But when I heard the fisherman's uncle say, "They have been waiting for me for more than a hundred years", I don't know why I suddenly felt a twitch in my heart, and I felt some inexplicable emotion.

This kind of words, if they sound to others, are absolutely crazy, but for Gu Xiaobai, there is an inexplicable feeling of sympathy.

He lowered his voice and said, "Uncle, what do you mean when you just said that they have been waiting for you for more than a hundred years?"

Next to him, a crew member dragged him and said, "Little brother, you ...... Be careful, don't talk to him......"

The worry is palpable.

Gu Xiaobai nodded, but still looked at the fisherman uncle seriously.

The fisherman's uncle smiled bitterly: "Young man, do you think I'm crazy?"

In fact, looking at the fisherman's unkempt hair and red eyes, it is estimated that many people will stay away from him.

But Gu Xiaobai has seen the down-and-out blind uncle, the mad Huayan, and many things that others can't imagine.

So he just shook his head.

Seeing Gu Xiaobai shaking his head, the fisherman uncle smiled bitterly: "Actually, sometimes I feel that I am simply crazy, but I just can't let go of ......"

He looked at the crew member next to him and said, "Can you give me a cigarette?"

Taking the cigarette handed over by the crew, the fisherman uncle took a puff, saw Gu Xiaobai frowning and took a step back, smiled helplessly, and extinguished the cigarette.

He leaned on a stone pier behind him, looked at the vast sea in front of him, and said, "I've been dreaming since I was a child. ”

"In my dream, there was a woman holding a child, standing on a sinking ship, and kept saying to me: 'We are waiting for you here, you must take us home......"

He covered his eyes, shook his head and said, "Sometimes when I close my eyes, it's just this picture, and I can't forget it......"

Beside them, several crew members looked at each other.

All of this, you still don't think you're crazy?

Big brother, you better go to the hospital and see a doctor.

On this kind of day, ordinary people go crazy in two days, how did you get over the past forty or fifty years?

After a while, the fisherman's mood calmed down, and his speech became more organized.

Compared to just now, it's like a different person.

"Over the years, I have searched all the libraries and village chronicles, and asked all the people who can ask, and finally know that more than 100 years ago, there was a merchant ship returning from Southeast Asia, which ran aground and sank on the way back, carrying more than 300 returnees, and only three ...... were rescued in the end."

"Since then, I've been looking for the ship, looking for it. ”

"I inquired everywhere, along the seaside, village by village, but it has been too long, more than a hundred years ago, only some long-lived old people, once heard the elders of the family talk about it......"

"One of the old men, show me this ......" The fisherman carefully took out his wallet from his bosom and took out a picture from it.

This photograph is obviously a retaken from another photo, but apparently this photo is also old.

It was a black-and-white photo, and because it had been so old, the color had faded a lot, and I could vaguely see a family of three standing in front of a boat.

On the ship, a flag was faintly hung.

Gu Xiaobai squinted his eyes and carefully identified: "Hai...... Thai?"

"Is this the Haitai? To be honest, I asked many people to help me see this photo, but they couldn't recognize the words on it......" The fisherman's uncle was a little pleased, and kept repeating: "Haitai, Haitai......"

The text on it is too blurry, and the reason why Gu Xiaobai can recognize it is actually because of his unique "photographic memory" and "MV system", which is equivalent to scanning it in the brain and then magnifying it.

This is probably stronger than all current image recognition engines.

"Haitai?" next to him, an archaeologist's face changed, "You found the Haitai?"

I can't calm down now......
