No. 138 [Underwater Treasure] (2nd Update)
Qin Fan and Da Bai ate up the delicious coconut crab and burped with great satisfaction. I can't help but feel in my heart that this primitive and natural state www.biquge.info of life is not bad, and it is much more comfortable than living in a city like a steel jungle.
However, Qin Fan didn't plan to stay here for long, Qin's father, Qin's mother, and Fang Xiaojun were still waiting for him to go back in Luzhou, if the news of his death came back, I don't know what the family would worry about.
Although he was in a hurry to go home and report his safety to his family, there was nothing too good for Qin Fan to be trapped on this uninhabited island. If you rush to sea, you will only lose your way in the vast sea, and you are purely looking for death.
All he can do now is light the leaves on the island and raise black smoke to see if he can get the attention of passing fishing boats or maritime search and rescue teams.
I don't know if it was because of the heavy rain last night, there should have been a lot of fishing boats fishing on the high seas in the vicinity, but today there was not a single fishing boat. Qin Fan climbed to the small hill in the middle of the island, his eyes were about to widen, and he didn't see a fishing boat passing by.
"It's unlucky, I didn't even see a small boat. Is buddy going to be a savage on this desert island for the rest of his life? ”
Qin Fan sighed a little disappointed, but he didn't regret his rash move to go to sea to rescue the Chinese white dolphin.
If they fall into the hands of unscrupulous poachers, they will either be sold to the rich as ornamental fish, or sold to marine parks abroad as human playthings, and may even be brutally killed.
Qin Fan is not a, but he has his own moral bottom line and principles, and he will not watch Da Bai being taken away.
At this time, Qin Fan noticed that Da Bai, who was hovering nearby, called at him twice, and then turned around on the sea a few times, as if he wanted to tell him something.
"Dabai, what's wrong with you?"
Curious, Qin Fan got into the icy sea water and swam towards Dabai.
Seeing Qin Fan coming, Da Bai affectionately touched him with his mouth, then turned around and sank to the bottom of the sea, swimming towards the depths of the seabed.
"Does Dabai want to tell me what's at the bottom of the sea?"
Qin Fan's heart moved, and he sank to the bottom of the sea after Da Bai, shuttling through the icy sea water at an extremely fast speed like a mermaid.
In the Guinness Book of World Records, the longest time to hold your breath underwater is 21 minutes and 29 seconds. However, the average person who holds their breath underwater for more than 5 minutes will have a lack of oxygen in their heads, and will experience various discomforts and even hallucinations. If you don't surface in time to breathe fresh oxygen, I'm afraid you will suffocate from lack of oxygen.
But this is not a serious problem for Qin Fan.
After absorbing the Seagod's energy in the mysterious sapphire, Qin Fan was able to breathe freely underwater, and there would be no problems of hypoxia and suffocation. Even without a wetsuit, you can stay at the bottom of the ocean for more than a few hours.
However, Qin Fan did not take it lightly, there were many deadly crises lurking in the ocean, and once he relaxed his vigilance, it might kill him.
Especially in the deep sea, there are many strange sea creatures that can release toxins, such as the pufferfish, which we often say, will release toxins to enemies when they are in danger.
Pufferfish toxin is a colorless needle-like crystal, which is an acid-resistant and high-temperature resistant animal alkali, and is one of the most toxic non-protein substances in nature. One in 50 million of this toxin can anesthetize nerves in 30 minutes, and the minimum lethal dose to the human body is only 0.5 milligrams.
If he encounters a pufferfish at the bottom of the sea, Qin Fan will never think about it and choose to flee directly, although the pufferfish is a delicious and delicious seafood, it is extremely poisonous, it is better not to provoke it for the sake of his own life.
Fortunately, there were no sharks encountered in this sea area, otherwise no matter how fast Qin Fan swam, it would be impossible to escape the shark's pursuit.
"Hey, this sea looks like a dream."
Qin Fan's heart froze, and he suddenly felt that the surrounding environment was very similar to the magical dream he had experienced before, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence.
I don't know how long it took, Qin Fan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly saw a huge black shadow in the depths of the seabed of this sea area.
"What is this?"
A gleam flashed in Qin Fan's precious pupils, and with the faint light, he finally saw clearly that the black shadow in front of him that sank deep under the sea was actually a huge shipwreck.
The moment he saw the wreck, Qin Fan had an extremely shocked expression on his face.
He was surprised to find that this shipwreck was what he had seen in his dream, and seeing this shipwreck with his own eyes at this time, the emotions in his heart could only be described by two words: shock.
I don't know that this wreck has been sinking at the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years, and it has long been incomplete, but I can still vaguely recognize the original appearance of this wreck.
To Qin Fan's shock, the size of this sunken ship was huge, and it was conceivable that this ship must be the largest ocean-going merchant ship in the world at that time.
It's just that this ocean-going merchant ship didn't know what disaster it encountered at that time, and it sank in this sea area, and it took hundreds of years in a blink of an eye.
Qin Fan had almost given up looking for the sunken merchant ship in the vast sea, but he didn't expect to find the sunken ship here because of a blessing in disguise.
It's just that this shipwreck is extremely huge, and it is undoubtedly a fantasy for Qin Fan to salvage it from the bottom of the sea alone.
However, he did not intend to go back empty-handed, and decided to explore the wreck first, and it would be better to determine the exact age of the wreck.
Qin Fan sank to the bottom of the sea in one breath, approaching the wreck at an extremely fast speed like a legendary mermaid, and circled the huge wreck a few times at the bottom of the sea.
It's just that Qin Fan didn't expect that there was a big-headed octopus living in this wreck, and when he saw a strange human approaching, he was so frightened that he spit out jet-black ink and fled quickly.
"Why are you running away so fast, you're still afraid that your buddy will make you into an octopus ball." Qin Fan pursed his lips and slowly searched around the wreck.
Visiting this wreck up close, Qin Fan deeply felt the enormity of this wreck. It took him a lot of time to circle the wreck. If you want to salvage this wreck from the bottom of the sea, I am afraid it will take a lot of manpower and material resources.
Half an hour later, Qin Fan saw a big hole in the cabin of this wreck, hesitated for a moment, and Qin Fan carefully drilled into the inside of the wreck from this big hole.
The shipwreck has been at the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years, and it is likely that it has been overrun by some aggressive sea creatures as a nest. Therefore, Qin Fan's movements were very careful, and he only relaxed after making sure that there was no danger inside.
"This is supposed to be the cabin where the cargo is kept."
At the moment when Qin Fan's gaze swept over the cabin, the whole person was stunned, as if he had forgotten to breathe for a while.
A touch of extreme excitement and ecstasy appeared on his face, and tens of thousands of exquisite Southern Song Dynasty porcelains were densely buried in the seabed mud under his feet!
Seeing these Southern Song Dynasty porcelains buried under the mud on the seabed, Qin Fan couldn't help but gasp, only to feel that his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
At a cursory glance, there will definitely be no less than 20,000 pieces of porcelain in this cabin, and a large part of the porcelain is fine porcelain from the Southern Song Dynasty fired in Jingdezhen, which is definitely worth a lot if it can be salvaged.
Unfortunately, a considerable part of this batch of porcelain is damaged, and many of the porcelain pieces were broken into pieces during the shipwreck and cannot be recovered.
Nevertheless, if all the wrecks can be salvaged, I am afraid that it will cause quite a stir in the international community.
Although Qin Fan really wanted to salvage this batch of porcelain ashore, he could not protect himself now, so he could only wait until he was rescued to find a way to salvage the wreck.
"Alas, the most tragic thing in life is to guard Baoshan but can only watch."
Qin Fan sighed heavily, although the porcelain on the wreck was exquisite, it was useless to his current self, and it was not as good as a piece of bread.
Because the light in the cabin was too dim, Qin Fan couldn't find any valuable clues, so after searching for it, he prepared to go ashore and make another plan.
But at this moment, a flash of yellow treasure light suddenly jumped into Qin Fan's treasure pupil.
Through the golden treasure pupil, Qin Fan unexpectedly saw that in a piece of silt deep under the sea, a rich yellow treasure light appeared.
"There's a baby!"
Qin Fan's heart trembled, and he walked towards the sludge and picked it up with his hands.
Because he didn't have the tools at hand, Qin Fan had a particularly hard time picking up the silt in the depths of the seabed with his bare hands, and it took him half a day to remove all the thick layers of silt on it.
When the mud was removed, a small, delicate wooden box was revealed.
To Qin Fan's surprise, this small wooden box was actually made of small leaf red sandalwood. It was engraved with a simple pattern, which looked very exquisite, and Qin Fan guessed that this red sandalwood box should be used to hold valuables.
It took Qin Fan a lot of effort to dig out this red sandalwood box from under the silt, but there was a brass lock hanging on the red sandalwood box, and there was no way to open it for the time being.
"This red sandalwood box is quite heavy, I don't know what it contains."
Qin Fan studied it and was pleasantly surprised to find that this red sandalwood box had been waterproofed, and the things contained in the red sandalwood box should still be intact.
As for what exactly is inside, it is unknown.
At this time, Da Bai swam over and circled around Qin Fan a few times, and his dark eyes looked curiously at the red sandalwood box that Qin Fan was holding.
"Dabai, let's go, let's go up."
The physical exertion in the sea is several times faster than on land, Qin Fan tossed around at the bottom of the sea for several hours, no matter how good his physical strength is, it is a little unbearable.
After going ashore safely, Qin Fan couldn't wait to find a stone, and the kid smashed open the brass lock on the red sandalwood box.
After smashing a few times, I heard a "pop", and the brass lock on the red sandalwood box was finally smashed open.
Qin Fan's heart trembled, he took a deep breath to calm his mood, and opened the red sandalwood box in front of him with an expectant face.
