470.Underwater Tomb (4)
Blue sharks are a bit of a strange fish, and they are known for their long migrations, such as swimming all the way from New England to South America, which is comparable to tuna.
But the tuna usually swims very fast, and the blue shark is generally sluggish, Ao Muyang knows this, so he was a little nervous after seeing this blue shark, but he was not very afraid.
He knew that the blue shark was not swimming fast, so he estimated that when he reversed Jin Dan's accelerated swimming, the other party should not be able to catch up with him.
As a result, shortly after he spotted the blue shark, the big shark was dispatched!
Its body was attached to the bottom of the sea, and then the fins slammed back, and its huge body was like a giant fish, breaking through the barrier of the sea water and rushing out!
It's fast, it's thunderous, it's fierce!
The big blue shark shook its fins and tail, and almost within a second, it rushed out of the bottom of the sea for more than ten meters, only to see its half-moon-shaped mouth open wide, and several squid swimming in front of it were all swallowed by it, and there was no chance to escape!
Seeing this scene, Ao Muyang's eyes were almost straight: This speed is too fast!
He had to wonder if the information he had read had misremembered the information about the blue shark at the time, or had the compiler made it up?
In short, he knew that he had to run for his life now, this blue shark was four and a half meters long, and if the tiger was here, it would definitely be able to arrange it clearly and obediently.
But this tiger is not there, he relies on his own ability to survive, then the best choice is to run......
The sea water has washed the reef and the land base for thousands of years, and washed out a big cave under the land, the light of the cave ** is very poor, Ao Muyang can maintain his vision without light in the water, but the fish cannot.
So he swam towards the depths of the water hole, and Jin Dan quickly reversed, swimming very fast.
His plan succeeded, the big blue shark didn't come to chase him, and I don't know if it was the deliciousness of the squid cuttlefish behind it that made it have no time to take care of Ao Muyang, or Ao Muyang's size was too big for it to be afraid of, or it was indeed because the light in the depths of the water cave was very poor that it didn't find Ao Muyang.
Anyway, Ao Muyang was glad that he got rid of this underwater killer.
However, he had to face another dilemma, the entrance and exit of the water hole was blocked by the blue shark, and he was now trapped in the water hole, although the water pressure and oxygen were not enough to become an obstacle to his survival, but he could not let Aro find out and leave the floating house, he had to get out quickly.
So he wandered around the water hole, looking for another entrance.
The water cave is very large, and there are many caves created by the impact of the water current, like a labyrinth, and the direction of the current may change over the years, and the direction of the cave is different, some of the cave openings are facing downward, like an upside-down hanging bell, and some of the cave openings are upward, layer by layer.
Ao Muyang shuttled between the big and small water holes, and he couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature while watching.
Water holes can be large and small, with small openings as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and such caves often have octopus squid hiding in them as a habitat.
Ao Muyang swam through the water, bringing up ripples, and a mollusk that I don't know if it was a squid or some kind of frightened mollusk swam out of the cave, and at the same time brought out a bottle.
The bottle floated leisurely in the water, and Ao Muyang subconsciously took it in his hand.
This bottle is about 30 centimeters high, it should be blue-gray, the reason why I say this is because the bottle has been soaked in water for I don't know how many years, and there are some snails and shellfish growing on it, and these aquatic organisms secrete a lot of impurities distributed on it, which greatly conceals its true appearance.
Ao Muyang doesn't understand antique cultural relics, but he can feel the heavy historical atmosphere in this bottle, this bottle is old, it is an antique!
Having obtained the antique bottle, he became interested in the small cave here, and forgot to find the way for a moment, but swam to the nearest cave to check it out.
The cave also inhabited the squid, and when he approached, the frightened squid abandoned the nest and fled, and something was dangling in the hole, much like a ball bottle.
Ao Muyang carefully took out the contents of the contents, and then was startled: What kind of ball bottle is this, this is a skull!
The skull is also old, the skin and flesh on it are all rotted and clean, the white bones have turned blue-gray, and the appearance of the porcelain vase is also full of small snails and small shelllets.
Subconsciously, Ao Muyang thought that he might have entered an amazing place.
He continued to search the cave, and in a slightly larger cavern he found a chest that was supposed to be made of fine iron when it was intact, but had been in the water for too long and had completely turned into rust.
Ao Muyang pulled the lid with his hand, and the small box suddenly fell apart, and more than a dozen sturdy black metal blocks fell out and fell straight down in the water, and finally sank under his feet.
Picking up a piece of metal, he found that this thing was very heavy, although it was only the size of his palm, but it was heavy in his hand, you must know that it still has buoyancy acting on it!
What is this? Iron? No, the iron box has rotted, and there is not a trace of decay in this metal, it is certainly not iron, but it is grayish-black, what is it?
Ao Muyang wondered in his heart, he picked up these metal pieces and put them back in the cave, and then looked for them in other caves.
Many of the surrounding caves have been found, some of them are clay pots and porcelain vases, some of which are small chests, and the bottles and jars are almost all overgrown with aquatic organisms, and the boxes are rotten.
He opened the boxes, which were mostly silver-gray pieces of metal like the ones he had found earlier, and some of them were mixed with large and small pieces of metal, either pale yellow or white-yellow.
The yellow metal block is heavier, and the density is very large at a glance, so Ao Muyang has a guess: I'm afraid this is a gold nugget, right?!
After making such a guess, he looked up sharply.
There is no abnormality above the big water cave, it is the top of an ordinary stone cave, but Ao Muyang is not looking at this, he continues to look up through the stone layer: above the ground, this should be Liuzhu Temple!
He remembered Assistant Liu's introduction when he visited the ancient temple yesterday, there are tombs of eunuchs who have supervised Pearl City in the past dynasties under the temple, and there is a local legend that the eunuchs looted local treasures in the caves under the tombs, but there has been no relevant discovery......
Looking at the gold nuggets he found, Ao Muyang faintly understood in his heart that he might have found the treasure place of the eunuchs!
This suspicion is not difficult to confirm, and when he continued to search, he came across a large stone cave, which was neat and tidy, apparently carefully repaired by hand.
The opening of the stone cave went up, and Ao Muyang looked inside, and there was a stone coffin inside!
In the dark and closed underwater cave, the temperature is cold, the strange rocks are craggy, and all kinds of mollusks are wriggling and swimming, and it is really shocking to see a stone coffin at this time.
Fortunately, Ao Muyang was prepared, and when he realized that he might have entered the cemetery that supervised the eunuchs in Pearl City, he knew that he would find their coffins sooner or later.
