Chapter 256: Skull

"You don't want to die, what if a sea snake escapes from inside?"

Seeing three divers thrust their long poles into the mud cave, the other divers stopped them.

Divers know very well that there are many terrible creatures on the bottom of the sea, and what they should do is to try not to alarm them, try not to provoke them, otherwise I am afraid that they will not be able to eat and walk around.

"Don't worry, even if a sea snake comes out, we can easily deal with it, don't judge us by your eyes."

The three young divers showed a trace of disdain on their faces, and they were very proud, obviously not taking the sea snake in their eyes at all.

What they are relying on is not weapons, nor equipment, but their own strength, as the strength of cultivation, they have just come out of Baiduan Mountain, and they are full of superiority.

Ye Ning, who detected their movement through the sperm whale sonar, could only sneer, Ye Ning had detected their strength, but it was just a perfect practice, if they didn't inject the third-level potion, then it is estimated that even Li Bin and others are inferior, and they are not as good as Li Bin's master Miao Jianshu, they are just in the inner gate of Baiduan Mountain, thinking that the people outside are ordinary people who can't threaten them, and they are just self-righteous.

It can be said that even if Ye Ning shot alone, he would have absolute confidence to kill them in seconds, not to mention that on the sea, there were swordfish, sperm whales, and octopuses, and they would all abuse them if they dispatched a clone, and now they are still alive, but the octopus clone has drilled into the mud a hundred meters below, and they can't interfere at all. Ye Ning didn't bother to pay attention to them. So as not to make too much of a sensation.

If not as a last resort. Ye Ning didn't want to make a big deal and wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible.

The three young divers interjected for a while and saw no movement, so they could only give up and join the salvage operation with other personnel, of course, no one thought that there was actually an octopus in this silt hole, and they didn't expect that this octopus was also being fished, and they had caught the treasure one step earlier.

……

Ye Ning didn't bother with them. Continue to salvage, but unfortunately the previous good luck seems to have run out, and after looking for two days, I haven't been able to catch any treasures, I haven't seen a piece of gold, and I don't know if it was really blown up, or it wasn't there in the first place.

When Ye Ning was about to give up, he suddenly touched a hard object, he controlled the octopus to pass over, and threw a large piece of hard object into the turtle shell space. Let the mermaid inside open, after all, the bottom of the sea is not suitable for opening the box. There is a possibility that mud and sea water will destroy the contents of the box.

"Ahh As soon as the mermaid opened the box, she let out an exclamation and quickly jumped away.

"Huh!" Yu Taiyue was interested, floated over, and stared at the box.

"What's wrong? Not a baby? Ye Ning looked at the box, and then was stunned, this was a fossilized skull, which seemed to be of little value at first glance, but Ye Ning thought of a possibility, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart beat faster. If this is an ordinary fossilized skull, it may indeed be of little value, but the well-sealed skull salvaged from the Awa Maru shipwreck is basically impossible to be an ordinary skull, and if this is a "Peking Man" skull, the value is immeasurable. The "Peking Man" referred to here is naturally not the person who lives in Beijing now, but a species of ancient humans who lived 500,000 years ago -- the Peking species of Chinese ape-man.

In the 20s of the last century, the journey of human beings to re-understand their origins began in Zhoukoudian, China, and the excavation of the skull of "Peking Man" was praised by foreign academic circles at that time as the most moving discovery in the history of ancient human research. However, the fate of the Peking Man skull was abruptly reversed in the midst of Japan's atrocities against humanity: these precious ancient human fossils suddenly disappeared from people's sight.

As for where the skull of the "Pekingese" went, some people speculated that it was taken to the United States, some people speculated that it was plundered to Japan, and many people speculated that it sank the Awa Maru...... Of course, everything is speculation, and no one knows where they went, and these priceless treasures have not been seen since they disappeared.

"Oh my God, what should I do if this is really a 'Pekingese' skull?"

Ye Ning was a little stunned, he knew that the skull of the Beijing people was of great significance, and he didn't know what to do with it for a while.

The first way that greedy people think of is to sell it, the skull of the Beijing man is absolutely priceless, and it is not surprising to sell it for a sky-high price, but it must belong to the national cultural relics, and it is illegal to sell it, and it is certainly not easy to sell it in China, and I am afraid that if you want to sell it, you will have to get it abroad. However, for this kind of national treasure, how could Ye Ning be willing to sell it abroad, isn't this indirectly acting as a traitor?

There is another way, that is, to hand it over to the state, this method makes Ye Ning agree even more, although he wants money, but he doesn't want to sell national treasures, even if he really needs money urgently, he would rather sell the few dodos in the turtle shell space. However, there is a drawback to this method, give it to the country anonymously, Ye Ning is a little unwilling, not only can he not even get the slightest benefit, but he may also be reaped by others to get benefits from it, and give it to the country in his own name, he has to be targeted again, and when he sells the gems again, I am afraid that he will be reminded of the Awa Maru, after all, he has not been approved, and he has no right to salvage the Awa Maru.

Or, choose to cooperate with Li Ruiyao, so that there is a saying about the skull and gems, but how and when did Ye Ning salvage it? It's a little difficult to explain, and Ye Ning doesn't want Li Ruiyao and them to share their benefits for no reason.

"I think it's still like this, after Li Ruiyao and their salvage fail, I will apply to the state, and everything will be justified by then."

Ye Ning had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and thought of a feasible way, so that he could enjoy the various benefits of the skull alone, and even take it out at a critical time, so as to help himself get through various relationships, a piece of Peking skull can definitely make the people above crazy.

Of course, I'm afraid that some people will still think of Ye Ning's gems, but Ye Ning plans to start selling gems in two days, and it will be at least a few months before Li Ruiyao and others give up salvage, and they will only apply for salvage qualifications at that time, and the time difference before and after is enough to speak for Ye Ning.

After thinking about how to deal with the Peking Man skull, Ye Ning continued to control the octopus clone to salvage. (To be continued......)
