The blue sea, the waves rippling, the sea breeze wrinkled the fine ripples, and under the sunlight, it shone like a golden scale.

Su Xinyuan stood on the deck, the slightly damp sea breeze blowing, the slightly fishy breath was refreshing, and the sea breeze blew his hair, cheeks, and bare skin...... As far as the eye can see, the slowly rising arc on the horizon where the sea and the sky meet, shimmering with the glazed luster of the ancient wilderness, makes people's whole mind become broad.

The prospect and salvage ship has a very interesting name, the Watchman, and the captain, Mr. William, is a bearded captain with an extremely beautiful beard, which is very suitable for playing the role of a pirate captain if he wears a blindfold.

There are 38 staff members on the ship, and there are 15 Blue Shield security guards led by Bai Wei, including Su Xinyuan's little sister Tang Xin, who appeared unexpectedly, Lixiang seems to be very interested in this little girl, which makes Su Xinyuan a little surprised, there are not many things that can arouse Lixiang's interest.

Shen Lao, Wang Fatzi and Wu Yunyun all went to sea with the ship, this is the first and most important trip to sea for the Fishman Company, if it fails, then all the previous investments are basically lost.

Su Xinyuan's mood is also very nervous, this time to go to sea is very important to him, he wants to be strong, of course, it is impossible to rely only on physical strength, only with enough strength can he fight against the huge shadow that has been oppressing in his heart.

"Look, there's a whale following our boat!" From the side of the ship came the shouts of surprise from the sailors.

Su Xinyuan and the others followed the reputation, and sure enough, on the left side of the boat, a humpback whale about ten meters long was following the side of the boat, constantly flapping its fins and raising its head out of the water, making a strange humming sound.

"What's the situation?" Su Xinyuan also saw such a big guy for the first time, it was really shocking.

"It seems to be in some trouble......," said William, who stepped forward on the boat, "and you see that it is covered with the threads of fishing nets, and that something seems to be blocking its mouth, and it must have run into the fishing nets of the fishing boat, and it is not yet mature and a child." ”

Su Xinyuan looked carefully, and sure enough, the humpback whale's body was densely wrapped with messy fishing nets.

"Is it asking us for help?" Su Xinyuan asked incredulously.

"Yes, the whale is one of the most intelligent creatures in the sea, its IQ is not low, and it knows that humans can help it, so it will ask us for help." William said on board.

"It's amazing, I've never heard of anything like this!" Wu Yunyun's eyes were almost shining with stars, and she looked at the still minored humpback whale with great sympathy and said, "Let's help it!" ”

Su Xinyuan looked at the big guy with some embarrassment, it was really not easy to help it.

"Captain, is there anything you can do?" Su Xinyuan asked.

"The side of the boat is too high, so I can only let the boat go down, but I don't know if this guy will cooperate, and these nets are too messy and tight, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get rid of." William also said with some embarrassment on the ship.

"It's all asking us for help, it's so pathetic, can't you just ignore it? Man is the spirit of all things, how can he not be saved when he dies?! Wu Yunyun's love was completely bursting, pestering Captain William and said.

"You're the boss, you have the final say." Captain William had no choice but to ask Su Xinyuan.

"On the premise of ensuring safety, let's see if we can help it......" Su Xinyuan said helplessly, nature is really a magical place, and the creatures in the sea may be more intelligent than we imagined!

The salvage boat stopped moving, and the two dinghys were lowered, and a couple of daring sailors carried long poles, with which iron hooks were tied to the other end, with which they were ready to remove the nets from the whales.

The whale really understood that these people were here to help him, and floated quietly on the surface of the water like a well-behaved child.

"It's amazing...... Is this a good sign? Shen Lao said with a sigh.

A few sailors also became bolder, and they pulled these messy nets with long hooks, but the progress was very slow, because the net lines were so messy that they were wrapped around the whale's body, and several sailors hurriedly pulled for a long time, but they did not pull open.

Lixiang looked at it coldly for a while and suddenly said, "It's useless, I'll come." ”

She jumped onto the railing of the ship's side and jumped like a seabird.

"Oh God!" Captain William was frightened by this scene and drew a cross on his chest.

Lixiang landed steadily on the dinghy, pulled out the Tang knife, and swung the blade at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye, cutting off the fishing net on the whale's head, but without hurting its flesh and skin in the slightest.

"What are you doing? Do it. Reika said coldly as she looked at the stunned sailors next to her.

The sailors reacted and stretched out their long poles and used anchor hooks to pull the nets off the whale's body and remove them.

The whale dived into the water, and after a while it came up again, opening its huge mouth, which frightened the sailors, although they knew that the humpback whale was a creature with a gentle temperament and only ate small fish and shrimp, but they were also frightened by the huge fish mouth.

"I'm here to help!" Tang Xin suddenly jumped off the boat and landed on the dinghy as well.

Captain William's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself, "God, do all Oriental women fly?" ”

Tang Xin took the long pole from the sailor beside him, and with a flick of his wrist, like a dragon going out to sea, it sank into the whale's mouth like lightning, and then let out a shout, bringing out a huge black shadow.

Su Xinyuan looked carefully, only to find that it was a large ball of broken fishing nets entangled and stuck in the whale's mouth, making it impossible for it to eat, so he asked for help in pain.

After these two big troubles were resolved, the humpback whale was so excited that it began to let out a high-pitched cry like a song, its fins lapping against the water, and from time to time it jumped out of the ocean floor as if waving to the people on the Watchman.

"Magical sea...... Amazing creatures, I believe this is a good sign, we will be smooth sailing this time......" Captain William also smiled.

The Watchman moved forward again, and the whale had been escorting for a long distance, occasionally singing happily and waving its long fins.

Wu Yunyun has been excitedly taking pictures with the camera, and from time to time taking selfies of herself and the whales, she is so happy that she doesn't know what to do.

Lixiang's face also rarely became a little warmer, she looked at Tang Xin, who was petite next to her, and suddenly said, "The trick you used just now is the Tai Chi Plum Blossom Gun of the Seven Star Mantis?" ”

"My sister is so powerful, you can see it." Tang Xin had a pure smile on his face.

Reika nodded, didn't say anything more, and looked at the extremely intelligent whale.

The whale had been following the Watcher for half a day before diving to the bottom of the ocean and disappearing, and this little episode also raised the spirits of the people on board, and everyone believed that it was a good sign.

It took about a week to reach the designated place by sea, and the reason why this place was chosen by Su Xinyuan as the first place for the first voyage was because the sea water here was not very deep, and it was the most suitable for salvage operations.

If the seabed is too deep, it will be difficult to carry out salvage operations even if the exact location of the wreck is known, and only shallow water is the best option.

In addition, the shipwreck here is a large amount of gold and silver treasure plundered in South America during the crazy primitive accumulation of the 17th century, at least 11 ships sank to the bottom of the sea, and only 4 were salvaged, and these 4 ships alone have billions of wealth.

The sea here is very clear, and when the sun is good, you can see a deep place below the sea surface, Su Xinyuan asked the salvage boat to lean next to a small island, and finally confirmed the latitude and longitude according to the tips of the fish-man treasure map.

Shen Lao Greedy has been looking at Su Xinyuan silently, he has never been able to believe that Su Xinyuan deciphered the fishman treasure map, most of his life's hard work has been condensed on this fishman treasure map, in the most desperate time, Su Xinyuan's magical performance subverted all his understanding.

When night fell, Su Xinyuan stood on the deck and stared at the North Star for a long time, when he heard footsteps slowly approaching around him, he turned his head and saw Shen Laoyuan approaching him.

"The survey will begin tomorrow, are you sure this is the shipwreck site?" Shen Lao asked greedily.

"Maybe, I'm not sure." Su Xinyuan said.

Shen Lao Greed exhaled a long breath and said, "Mr. Su, although your life is extremely noble, I really can't believe that you can decipher the Fishman Treasure Map. ”

"Believe it or not, we're here now," Su Xinyuan looked at Shen Lao and said, "What's the point of saying whether to believe or not now?" ”

Shen Lao was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "What Mr. Su said is that it has come to this point, and I am still struggling with these boring questions. ”

Su Xinyuan raised his head again and stared at the bright North Star, and was silent for a while before asking, "Shen Lao Greed, what are you looking for?" ”

"What?" Shen Lao asked greedily.

"What exactly are you looking for in this ocean floor?" Su Xinyuan continued to ask, "You put so much effort into it, I'm afraid it's not just for money, right?" ”

Shen Lao was silent for a long time before he spoke: "I know that I can't hide it from Mr. Su, I am indeed looking for a treasure, but I don't know if this thing exists, maybe it is just a mythical legend." ”

"What treasure?" Su Xinyuan asked.

"Dust beads." Shen Lao said greedily.

"Dust beads?" Su Xinyuan didn't quite know what it was.

"Yun Chenzhu is also known as the phoenix eye, the legend is that the Yellow Emperor left when he became immortal, the whole body is like fire, ten thousand poisons do not invade, and the legend is the essence of the phoenix gall, it is the first class of the extreme yang thing between heaven and earth." Shen Lao said greedily.

"This seems to be a treasure from the East, how can it be lost to the Western Seas?" Su Xinyuan asked.

"A hundred years of humiliation, where can the lost treasures be calculated......" Shen Lao said with a bitter smile.

"What's the use of this treasure?" Su Xinyuan asked.

"Heal...... Or maybe break the curse! Shen Lao said solemnly.
