When he returned to the surface, Xia Lei not only brought back the contents of the treasure spot, but also retrieved the weapons and equipment that had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Seeing Xia Lei surface, Long Bing said excitedly: "You are finally back, if you don't come back, I will come down to find you." ”

When she saw Xia Lei, she didn't care about the contents of the treasure spot, but Xia Lei.

Charlei climbed onto the yacht, but failed to stand on his feet, and stumbled and fell on the deck. He relied on the mysterious energy in his body to support himself until now, and when he returned to the yacht, the pressure of survival disappeared at once, and this relaxation was like a bone that had been torn off, and he could no longer support it.

"Are you alright?" Long Bing hurriedly came to help.

Xia Lei hurriedly said, "Don't come here!"

"You ......" Long Bing didn't know why Xia Lei was like this.

Xia Lei said: "The twenty-two pieces of ancient alloy found this time are very large, don't get close to me, it's very dangerous." ”

Only then did Long Bing understand why Xia Lei didn't let her go, and at the same time, he was stunned by Xia Lei's statement.

"How long did it take me?" asked Charleigh.

"An hour. Long Bing said.

Xia Lei subconsciously looked at the sea, and suddenly remembered something, "Hurry up and start the boat, we have to get out of here." ”

"But you ......" Long Bing looked at Xia Lei worriedly.

Xia Lei said: "I'm fine, I'll recover after a rest." ”

"Alright then, I'll go sail. Long Bing walked towards the cockpit.

Xia Lei suddenly stopped her, "By the way, where are you going?"

Long Bing said: "It's not far from Diaoyu Island, and our fuel reserves allow us to sail to that area. As soon as we cross that area, we will be able to contact our navy and escort us back. ”

"Then go according to your plan. Xia Lei breathed a sigh of relief, and then lay motionless on the deck, waiting for the moment when his strength and spirit were restored.

A minute later, Long Bing started the yacht and sailed in the direction of Diaoyu Island under the guidance of the navigation equipment. There are ships, there are fuel reserves, and there is no longer a need for her and Xia Lei to return to Okinawa.

As time passed, Xia Lei's physical strength and spirit also recovered little by little. Half an hour later, he climbed up from the deck. The night sky moved slowly in his field of vision, and the stars were distant but not losing their brilliance and dazzling. The salty sea breeze brushed his cheeks and took away his thoughts.

"The last time Princess Nagami wanted to hit me with the idea of an AE capsule in the basement of the Reima Arsenal, this time, she wanted to attack me. But she said she couldn't hurt me because I was the only one. So, is her attack on me fake, and she actually wants to snatch my AE capsule?" What happened in the shipwreck under the sea surfaced in Xia Lei's mind little by little, and it also aroused his vigilance.

At the time, releasing Princess Yongmi was indeed a reckless decision without careful consideration.

However, this did not affect Xia Lei's desire to release her and have a good talk. He already had twenty-nine pieces of ancient alloy in his hands, and the whole box was only one piece of ancient alloy. This is equivalent to the fact that he already has a box in his hand that is only missing one part, and in this case, if Princess Yongmei is released, how complete will she be?

It's hard to know for sure, but it's certain that she's almost complete, just like the box!

A princess Nagami who tends to be complete, she must know a lot of secrets about AE!

Such a thought made Xia Lei excited, and he even had the urge to put together the box right away to release Princess Yongmei again. Eventually, however, he gave up on the tempting idea. The reason for him to give up was Long Bing. Princess Yongmei can't hurt him, but she can hurt Long Bing. If Princess Yongmei vented the resentment in her heart on Long Bing's body, it would be terrible.

"Lei, are you better?" Long Bing's voice came.

Xia Lei put away his thoughts at this time, and he responded, "I'm much better, don't worry, I'll hide my things and come back to you." ”

Long Bing watched Xia Lei enter the cabin, and only after half a sound did he murmur a sentence, "You have a secret hidden in your body, and you don't tell me, is it because you have something unspeakable?" or...... Even you don't know? You're looking for answers?"

A woman's mind and intuition are sometimes very accurate.

Xia Lei returned to the cockpit more than ten minutes later, carrying a large bag of things in his hand.

"What is it?" Long Bing asked after taking a look.

Xia Lei opened the bag, revealing the contents of the package. Those were the jewelry, porcelain, and bronze mirror of Princess Yongmei that he had gotten from the cabin.

Xia Lei said: "I found these things from the treasure spot, you can take whatever you like." ”

Long Bing just glanced at it, "You just take it, I don't want it." ”

"Why not?" said Xia Lei with a smile: "You don't, how can I be embarrassed to ask for them? Do you want me to give them to the state? If you want me to do this, I will do it." ”

Long Bing said: "You know I don't like these things, I, I...... I also have my principles. Really, you just have it, I don't want it. ”

"Then I'll hand it over to the state. ”

"Don't. Long Bing said again: "You spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for this operation, so much money, Shi Lao will never repay you." According to his style, we probably won't have a budget of more than 300,000 yuan for our operation, and it's still Chinese dollars. Treat these things as your account. Besides, you take it, if I am short of money in the future, I will just ask you for it. ”

Xia Lei smiled, "Then I'll take it, I'll buy you a good car when I go back, and add some high-end appliances to your home or something, well, don't you like that kind of big bathtub with surfing function? Buy one, redecorate it, and install a big bathroom." ”

Long Bing stared at Xia Lei, "Do you want to buy me a car?" and decorate my house, buy high-end electrical appliances and buy a large bathtub...... Are you trying to keep me?"

Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, yes, is he going to support the section chief of the family? In fact, he definitely doesn't have such a mind in his heart, judging from his handwriting, what is the difference between this and those rich people who keep their lovers?

"Forget it, is there any difference between those who are supported and those who are not raised? I don't want to take Shentu Tianyin's place. If you want to decorate my home, decorate it, install a large bathtub or something, and use it anyway. But let me tell you, once the house is furnished, you'll have to come and stay one night a week. ”

Charleigh, "......"

Is this shooting yourself in the foot?

"That ......" Long Bing also seemed to be embarrassed, and then changed the topic, "By the way, did you find a new pointer this time?"

Xia Lei's mind also returned to business, "Yes, I'll replace it and see where the next treasure spot is." ”

Charley removed the old hands from the compass and replaced them with new ones found in the shipwreck.

As soon as the hands were set, they suddenly turned around and returned to their original position.

"What's going on?" Xia Lei stared at the compass dumbfounded.

Long Bing also looked over and stared at the compass tightly.

Both thought that the compass would soon have a new movement, pointing in a certain direction and then fluttering. However, a full minute passed, and the compass did not move at all.

"Could it be broken?" Long Bing couldn't help the doubts in his heart and broke the silence.

"I don't know. Xia Lei said. In addition to confusion, his heart was more depressed. In this case, he couldn't find the next treasure spot. If he couldn't find the next treasure spot, he wouldn't be able to find the best ancient alloy parts, and he wouldn't be able to put together all the parts to make a complete box.

If he can't piece together the complete box, how can he unlock the ultimate secret?

has paid so much and experienced so much, if he can't solve the final mystery, he will not be happy in his life.

But just when Xia Lei was depressed, wondering if the compass had been damaged by the huge pressure in the deep sea, the pointer on the compass suddenly trembled, and then brushed up and pointed in the direction of the sky.

What's even more bizarre is that Xia Lei originally mounted the pointer on the compass, but at this time it was detached from the compass and suspended on the connecting rod that fixed the pointer without gravity.

Xia Lei and Long Bing were stunned, and their eyes slowly moved up from the pointer, staring at the ceiling above them with blank expressions.

The next treasure spot in the sky?

This is undoubtedly a huge joke.

With the current level of science and technology of mankind, although it is possible to land on the moon or something, it can only be done with the strength of one country, and it can only land at a predetermined landing site, and the scope of activities that can be carried out is very small. A very simple example is that the Americans once landed on the moon, but only planted a Star-Spangled Banner on it. The Chinese also landed on the moon, but the range of astronauts' activities was definitely more exposed than two football fields. Today's technology can only reach this level, imagine what kind of conditions must be in place to go to the sky to find the next treasure spot?

In fact, even if Hua Guo had the ability to send Xia Lei to the moon, the sky above his head was more than a moon? If it was not on the moon, how could he dig up treasures?

"Hahaha......" Xia Lei couldn't help but laugh, laughing inexplicably.

Long Bing was silent for a while, and comforted: "Don't worry, maybe there is something wrong with the compass." If it's somewhere deep in the sky and you can't go up, that's fine. You have done your best, and the country will not forget your contribution. ”

Xia Lei couldn't laugh because only he knew that he was not just studying the secrets of AE for the country, but also himself. He has a relationship with this matter like a bone and a heart, how can he let it go?

But at this moment, the pointer suspended above the compass link fell and returned to its original position impartially. Its return, as if it had been precisely measured, is extremely accurate.

The compass was still again, and there was no new movement.

What's going on here?

Xia Lei stared at the pointer in a daze, his mind full of holes but to no avail.

A minute later, the hands were erected again, pointing to the sky. After a while, it returned to its original position again.

"It's like it's building up energy, and then when it reaches a certain point, it points the way. What kind of energy is it? Is it the energy of the compass itself? or something else?" Xia Lei thought in his heart.

The yacht cuts through the waves, carrying a boatload of questions, sneaking in the dark.

Dawn will come, but until then, the darkness will remain and will not be able to dispel it.
