Chapter 1144: Salvage
(Thanks to my friends Tong Ye Feifei and Violet ~ Qianqian for their encouragement, congratulations to my friend Twelve Deadly War Horses for being promoted to helmsman)
"Hey, I'll go, Xuanzi, why are you so haggard this night." AFTER WAKING UP IN THE MORNING, THE FAT MAN WHO WAS THINKING ABOUT THOSE GOLD COINS IN HIS HEART COULDN'T HOLD IT WHEN HE SAW LIU YUNXUAN'S CURRENT APPEARANCE.
Liu Yunxuan's current state is that his eyes are blank and his face is haggard. A bitter face, like yesterday, is completely like two people. Where is there still the triumphant and high-spirited appearance of yesterday.
"Yesterday I spent a night pounding these gold coins, and I wiped them one by one. But after all, these are objects in the deep sea, and who knows what their condition was, so don't get too close to your mouth and nose when you play, and wear gloves. Liu Yunxuan said after giving the small pocket containing the gold coins to the fat man.
Yesterday he did tinker for a night, and this night was still a bit long, and he was tinkering in space. Because on a whim, he wanted to try it with almighty space water to see if he could wash away the possible curses stained on these gold coins.
To be on the safe side, he came out counting the time inside. Because I was too worried in my heart, I didn't replenish food in the space, and it was too long, so it didn't look good.
"Haha, Xuanzi is good, hard work." The fat man took the bag, opened it, looked at it, and said happily.
"I'm going to eat first, don't forget to ask Shen Help to contact a more professional salvage company. Also, Charlie reminds them when they play. Liu Yunxuan said to the fat man.
He is now trying not to have any physical contact with everyone, who knows if this curse can be contagious, if it spreads a large area.
And he was in a hurry to eat, not only because he was hungry, but now that there was a curse following, he didn't have much time to think about these appetites, he wanted to find Xiao Afu to see. Look at the little guy's attitude towards himself.
Now he didn't wear that Aztec gold coin on his body, if little Ah Fu was still so tired of himself, he estimated that things would be big.
When he came to the restaurant, Xiao Afu was scooping porridge with a small spoon and drinking, and when he saw Liu Yunxuan coming, he frowned. But he didn't leave.
Liu Yunxuan let out a sigh of relief, it seems that although it still has an impact on himself, the gold coin is not on his body, and the impact is not very great, otherwise Xiao Afu would have run away long ago.
"Hehe, boss, the salvage company has been contacted, and they will send a salvage ship over today. Look, can you get a smaller one? At this time, Tang Shen was very attentive to Liu Yunxuan and served a bowl of porridge. Then said pitifully.
When she watched Liu Yunxuan and them go out yesterday, she fell in love. She wouldn't believe that these people didn't sleep at night to go fishing, that was an excuse.
Sure enough, when I came back in the evening, I found a shipwreck, and there were gold coins on the shipwreck.
She herself was very curious about this strange thing, and now she saw that there should be a lot of gold coins, so she wanted one to come and play with it. This shouldn't be nothing, anyway, Liu Yunxuan is usually very generous.
"Deeply. Let's see how many there are. Liu Yunxuan frowned, and said vaguely after taking a sip of porridge.
If these gold coins are not "clean", where does he dare to send them out casually, it will be easy to have an accident.
"Hmph, stingy." It's not the same as I expected. Tang deeply twisted his small waist and shook his two long legs, and muttered to sit next to Michelle to eat. But looking at that posture, it's also like a complaint.
Liu Yunxuan could only smile bitterly, this girl was still angry, but she couldn't say anything about this situation, she really said it. Maybe it will make people misunderstand, and they won't find a better one to make excuses.
After breakfast, Liu Yunxuan slipped up to his daughter again, and as soon as he walked in, the two little girls cried.
All of a sudden, Liu Yunxuan's breakfast was somewhat relieved, and his heart was lifted by two centimeters. Xiao Afu is a little older, and he has the ability to endure, but these two little girls don't care about that, and they have to express themselves if they feel uncomfortable.
Now it seems that although the Aztec gold coin has not been put on me, because I have come into contact with it, I am really not "clean".
"Expectation, anticipation. Just wait for the salvage ship to come over today and see the true face of Lushan on this shipwreck. While sitting outside in the sun, the fat man said with a smile.
This was proposed by Liu Yunxuan, and he couldn't find any other way anyway, so he wanted to use the sun's ultraviolet rays to kill it, in case it was useful.
"I don't know if there's anything valuable on the ship underneath, maybe an empty ship will be salvaged and there won't be anything of value in it." Liu Yunxuan said with a wry smile.
The price of salvaging the ship was not cheap, and he was now afraid that there were really Aztec gold coins on this ship, which was not a good thing.
"Hey, Xuanzi, what's wrong with the wound on your hand? Infected? The fat man turned his head and just wanted to make a few jokes, but he caught a glimpse of the part of the wound on his left hand that was a little black, and hurriedly asked.
After being reminded by the fat man, Liu Yunxuan raised his left hand and stared at the wound that had already healed, and there were indeed some signs of blackening. He rubbed it with his fingers a few more times, and it didn't hurt or itch, and the pale black layer seemed to be under the skin.
"I don't feel anything, I guess something wasn't washed at the time, I'll see the doctors later." Liu Yunxuan frowned and said.
He said this to comfort the fat man, when he first cleaned it, it was very clean. He guessed that the most likely thing was some infection or something, or something to do with the gold coin.
The doctors also checked it out, but the results of various laboratory tests were normal. It's as if that little black skin should have existed in the first place, and Liu Yunxuan himself didn't have any discomfort.
The results of the examination were not obtained, and they had to be left for further observation. Originally, I wanted to take some tissue or something for testing, but Liu Yunxuan refused, so I would wait for the change.
The people from the salvage company came over quickly, and Liu Yunxuan also led everyone to lead the way in front of them on the Gemini Asterisk. The scene of salvaging a shipwreck is not common, and it can be an eye-opener regardless of whether there is something underneath or not.
"When the time comes, let's play with the gold coins, anyway, it's useless for us to keep so much, give everyone a share." Liu Yunxuan was sitting on the deck with his eyes closed, and Michelle leaned over and said softly.
"I didn't say no, I have to find a professional to clean these gold coins without damaging them, who knows if they have been with a pile of rotten meat, intestines or something." Liu Yunxuan opened his eyes and said with a smile.
"Look at you, it's so disgusting, I want to throw up." Michelle looked at him and said angrily.
The first gold coin was found in the skeleton, and I just felt a little dirty at the beginning, so I didn't get my hands on it. Now listening to Liu Yunxuan's description, that scene also appeared in front of her, and she felt sick to her stomach.
Liu Yunxuan did it on purpose, and it was not good to refuse, so it would be a little more time to delay with other excuses, if it really couldn't be delayed, it would depend on the situation.
The salvage company is really professional, and directly sent down three underwater robots to survey the situation at the bottom of the trench clearly.
The location that Liu Yunxuan arrived at yesterday was only a little bit on the surface of the trench. The trench is of the downward slope, and there is a crater that extends more than 800 meters, that is, nearly 2,000 meters at the deepest point.
At present, it is not known whether this volcano is dead or alive, and detailed information will have to be checked by Mexican officials. But one thing is for sure, the ship was very unlucky enough to run into a volcanic eruption.
And the small chest embedded in the stone also has an explanation, it is wrapped in magma, because underwater, the magma may not be too hot at the beginning, so the contents of the box have survived.
However, Liu Yunxuan now hopes that this box will be directly burned to ashes by magma, or it will be directly covered up and buried in stones, so that he will not have to worry about the Aztec gold coin.
Even Liu Yunxuan was now wondering if the ship's suffering from the volcanic eruption had something to do with the cursed power of that Aztec gold coin.
Because it was the eruption of the volcano at the bottom of the sea, he also had an omen. But looking at the current condition of the ship, it is obvious that the bottom of the ship was broken by the sudden eruption of a large stone, and the whole thing was broken in two and overturned, and I am afraid that no one on this ship was spared.
"Boss, there are two ways to salvage the wreck, one is to directly tow it up with the ship, which can save some time, but it has a great impact on the hull and the items in the ship. The other is to roughly empty the inside of the ship first, and then tow it up, which requires some wasted time. Tang walked over deeply and said expressionlessly.
"Let them put the robot in the cabin first, and see if there are any valuable items. If you have it, we'll take it slowly, and if you don't, we'll just get it. Liu Yunxuan nodded and said.
Liu Yunxuan knew that this girl was still thinking about this morning's affairs, but she didn't bother to say it. If it's all settled, give her two gold coins, and she'll be smiling.
In fact, while they were talking, people from the salvage company were also probing the inside of the cabin. There were a lot of bones inside, and there were more than thirty guns on both sides of the cabin. The floor of the cabin was littered with weapons such as swords and muskets.
The internal damage to the hull, which was broken in two, was also bad, and there were holes everywhere. Clothes and the like have basically been corroded by seawater.
There were more than a dozen boxes in the stern hold, but the salvage company didn't touch them, but just marked them. In the front half of the ship, there were also some chests, and there were some daily necessities scattered inside, all of which were made of pure gold.
This was the general situation of the whole ship, and after seeing this, the fat man and Charlie jumped straight up on the Gemini Star. (To be continued......)
