820. Find treasure in this way
The legend of the Flower Fox is circulating in the harbor of Halifax, and more and more fishermen are joining in spreading the news.
1,200 square miles, which is more than 3,000 square kilometers, it is no wonder that Osside has the world's most advanced civilian seabed search technology, and it is too difficult to use sonar to find traces of shipwrecks that may be buried in the sea sand in such an open seabed!
The bottom of the sea is uneven, and from time to time you will encounter small seamounts or reefs, and in the information scanned by sonar, these are very similar to the fragments of a warship.
And after a century and a half of tidal currents and waves washed away, the fragments of the warship may have rotted, may have been buried in the sea sand, may have been occupied by some seaweed plankton attached to make a nest, in short, it is not easy to say whether it can be found.
Qin Shiou adopts a whirlwind method to find objects, which can save energy and time to the greatest extent.
After figuring out the sea area where Shen Bao was located, Qin Shiou said goodbye to his family and took the fishermen and militiamen to drive the fishing boat Fengshou directly south to the famous waters of the Bermuda Islands.
The waters of the Bermuda Islands, the most mysterious sea area on the earth, are about 900 kilometers away from North America, about 1,100 nautical miles northeast of Miami, Florida, on the east coast of the United States, and about 840 nautical miles southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
In terms of territorial ownership, Bermuda belongs to the United Kingdom and is the oldest British overseas territory.
However, because of the harsh climate and the abundance of reefs under the sea, Britain never paid attention to this area, but only nominally administered it. In fact, Britain doesn't care who this archipelago belongs to.
About Bermuda. It has always been associated with terms such as ghost ships, treacherous, and mysterious, and how many bizarre things have happened in this sea. There are already countless of them, and the Treasure of the Republic is just one of them.
Yes, the location of the Barbary Corsair at that time was in the Bermuda Triangle, and the exact location is no longer known, because the US Navy did not land in Bermuda at that time, so it is difficult to determine.
According to the deduction of the Osside company using a large computer, the location of the wreck should have been more than 800 nautical miles northeast of the island, and Qin Shiou led the fishing boat there this time. Of course, by the way, come to the deep sea to play the autumn breeze and see if you can catch a batch of good catches.
There was no danger all the way, because the Marine Meteorological Bureau had predicted that the Atlantic Sea would be calm in the next 20 days, so Qin Shiou dared to drive such a small boat as the Harvest into the deep sea, if there was a big wind and waves, he would not come.
According to the GPS locator, Qin Shiou determined the core area of the harvest to enter the predetermined sea area of the shipwreck, and then took it as the central point. Start spinning outward to expand the search.
The so-called roundabout method of finding objects is to choose a core, and then rotate outward according to the clockwise search, if the outermost layer has not been found. Then go around counterclockwise, and if you still can't find what you're looking for, you can give up.
The water here is more than 4,000 meters deep. The water was dark and cold, and it was bleak. There is not even seaweed, it is simply a desert of life.
But just when Poseidon's consciousness fell to the bottom of the sea. Not far away, a dark tide suddenly set off at the bottom of the sea, and then a giant python-like monster came out of the bottom of the sea.
This thing is longer than the sea python in the Daqin fishing grounds, Qin Shiou can be more than thirty meters by sight, the body is flat, the appearance is dark gray, after it appeared, it shook its body on the bottom of the sea a few times, and it set off waves, which looked extremely fierce.
Qin Shiou was stunned for a moment, he had never seen this kind of thing, and he had never heard of it, but he was not afraid, and wanted to go up to see the specific appearance of this thing, but it seemed to be able to feel the existence of the sea god's consciousness, and glared in the direction of Qin Shiou with fear, and quickly swam away.
The big monster swam very fast, and its flat and slender body writhed rapidly, and Qin Shiou didn't catch up for a while, so he let it escape.
Roughly speaking, this fish is a bit like a royal ribbon fish, but the emperor ribbon fish is not more than 30 meters long, right? Qin Shiou shook his head and gave up the idea of exploring to the end, he was here to find Shen Bao, not to study marine species.
Today, human beings have been able to land on the moon and Mars, but for the ocean, human beings do not know very thoroughly, every time the ocean is explored, there will always be new species found, and now there are many new species in the ocean that have not been discovered, no one knows.
Therefore, Qin Shiou was not curious that he would encounter this strange fish he didn't know, and besides, this was Bermuda, the place where miracles were born.
The Seagod Consciousness can cover an area of about one square kilometer at a time, Qin Shiou swirled and expanded outward, and within a few tens of kilometers, he found a wreck!
He excitedly leaned up to take a look, and found that it was a modern freighter, and there were many rotting bones in it, but not human, but pigs and sheep.
He looked at the name of the ship, it wasn't his target, it was called the Desert Warriors, and the two Barbary pirate ships, one named the Arari Sword and the other the Skeleton's Whip.
Seeing the name of the ship, Qin Shiou couldn't help but shake his head, this captain's brain was funny, the ship sailing on the sea was actually called 'Desert Warrior'? Isn't this a deliberate attempt to get the thrill of going against the ocean?
Poseidon Consciousness looked at the ship, there was nothing of value except for the bones of a large number of livestock, it seemed that the ship had been successfully transferred by the crew before the ship sank.
Continuing to expand outward, about 20 kilometers away, another shipwreck was found, and there were many livestock bones in the ship.
Qin Shiou checked, it turned out that in the early years, many people found that Bermuda was located on the main route of the Atlantic Ocean, so they wanted to speculate in Bermuda, intending to eat pigs on the island as fresh meat futures, and sell them to ships in the future.
However, the climate in Bermuda was harsh, and many boats carrying livestock were wrecked in the sand, and they slowly gave up the idea of landing.
Poseidon's consciousness turned rapidly, and some sargassum appeared in the field of vision, and some way out, signs of life began to appear on the bottom of the sea.
Sargassum floats on the ocean floor, and some unknown small fish in the shape of short knives hide in it to hunt and live, and their excrement becomes the nourishment of sargassum, and such a simple symbiotic system emerges.
Qin Shiou admired this turquoise sargassum sea, the sea god's consciousness set off an undercurrent, and pieces of sargassum were lifted up, and then, half of the shipwreck revealed a blurred face!
This discovery was completely unexpected, Qin Shiou didn't expect to find anything underneath the sargassum, but after he lifted the sargassum, he actually made a discovery.
I just don't know if these are the two pirate ships he was looking for...... (To be continued......)
