Chapter 672: Dead Sea Corpses

I'm not afraid of dead people and stuff, but it's disgusting enough to catch such a thing when fishing.

Xu Ning frowned, and used the spear in his hand to remove the armor, the skeleton inside was completely decayed, and there were a lot of shellfish and parasites attached to the bones, if it weren't for this kind of thing, the bones would have fallen apart long ago. But looking at the shape of this skeleton, the dead man's head in front of him should be a big man, and although the armor on his body is very broken, the metal inside is still shining silver-white after it is broken.

"This metal has been around for many years, and looking at the forging process, it should be a person from the land of water." Sharon picked up a fragment from the side, carefully observed the pattern on it, and said.

"Are you sure?"

"Eight or nine is not far from ten, even if it is not, it has a lot to do with the country of water." Xia Long frowned and said, "There is a row of small holes on the chest of this armor, which has been used specifically to hang weapons such as water spines, because the people of the Water Country may fall into the water during the battle, and the weapons cannot be held or hung by hand like the battle on land, so they are fixed on the chest." ”

Xu Ning took a closer look, and sure enough, there were many small holes in the front of the armor.

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, the armor shook violently, and Xia Long and Xu Ning were startled, and immediately dodged back, and at the same time grabbed the weapons in their hands. Xu Ning held the spear, planning to throw it out again to give it a heart-warming cold! However, the armor only shook a little, and soon stopped moving.

Then, a fat octopus came out of the armor, and then there was a hermit crab, which also came out with a thief's head and brain.

"Uncle, I was scared to death, I thought I was cheating!"

Xu Ning patted his chest and couldn't help laughing. After so many days of no excitement, this scene in front of him made him relax a lot. Thinking about it, I seem to be too sensitive, this person is rotten to scum, how can he cheat the corpse?

"Sharon, how long is your fishing line?"

"About five feet!"

In other words, the depth of the water under the ship is at most five feet. How is that possible, this is on the ocean! Xu Ning said puzzled.

"It's not surprising, maybe this was originally a land on the sea, but it was submerged." Sharon guessed.

"If it's really land, it should also be a battlefield, otherwise how could this person still be wearing armor when he dies?"

"I don't know."

"Sharon, anchor, I want to go down and have a look."

Xia Long was stunned for a moment and looked into Xu Ning's eyes. It's not like a joke!

"Go down?!"

"Yes, things shouldn't be as simple as we think, do you think about it, what happened to us at the mouth of the sea?"

"Estuary...... You mean the merman! ”

"No, it's not the merman, it's when we entered the path of the mist, and there were shipwrecks and corpses everywhere underwater!"

"That's right, I remember that. But what does it matter? You wouldn't be thinking that this is below...... But the ocean. It's not a roadway, the action of the tide will wash away everything! Sharon shook his head and said.

"Since you think so, let's give it a try!" Xu Ning smiled.

"This ......"

"Anyway, it's boring, just have some fun at that time!" Xu Ning urged, and he took off the clothes on his upper body and copied the water thorns on Xia Long's body.

Sharon was helpless. He knew that Xu Ning was idle!

"Okay, I'll stop the boat first."

The first thing a ship to stop while sailing is to lower the sails, and the second thing is to wait for the ship to slow down and then lower the anchor, many people think that the anchor will stop as soon as it is lowered. It's a misconception that it takes a long time for a ship to come to a stop unless the anchor hooks something to stop.

The anchor on the Qiang wood ship does not need to be so troublesome, the dwarves cleverly use the mechanism on the anchor, when the anchor is thrown down, it will become like a beast's claw, hook any crack in the seabed, stop the ship, and when it is necessary to move forward, as long as you pull the chain in the middle, the serration of the anchor will be retracted and become a smooth iron rod.

After stopping the boat, Xu Ning was already naked, tied his hair with a rope, and moved his body with a water-splitting spur with both hands.

"Brother Xu Ning, be careful!"

"Don't worry, I'm not as good as you when I walk on water, but when I get into the water, I shouldn't be as good as you." Xu Ning smiled, jumped forward, and a fierce man plunged in.

Sharon shook his head, turned to look at the skeleton armor, and continued to look down, looking for clues.

The moment Xu Ning jumped in, a rain cover formed around his body, isolating himself from the seawater. Except for the hands with water-splitting thorns, the rest of the body is not wet at all, and the Gang Qi shield can also isolate the cold of the sea water and maintain a normal body temperature.

As soon as I jumped down, it was dark in front of me, and I slowly sank to the bottom of the Qiangmu boat, only to find that it was not unusual to look up at the whole boat in the seawater, just like a big fish floating on the water.

Looking down, the bottom of the sea is not as transparent as I thought, in fact, after the depth of the sea water exceeds three zhang, the underwater things begin to dim, the sun's optical fiber has been refracted several times, and it can no longer reach the bottom of the sea, and can only be seen clearly through the diffuse scattered optical fiber.

"Strange, why don't you have a single fish?" Xu Ning observed left and right, he was originally fishing, but not to mention fish here, there were no slightly larger things, and a few small shrimps swam in front of his eyes, and he seemed to be very interested in this big guy.

"Just go down and have a look!"

Xu Ning kicked the bottom of the boat hard, and then this reaction force quickly swam to the bottom of the sea, and the light became darker and darker, which made people feel a little uneasy in their hearts.

Human beings are born with a fear of darkness, and this is not a matter of ability at all. Sometimes the greater the person's ability, the greater the fear point in the heart.

Fear of the dark is mainly because people don't know what is in the dark. If there is nothing, it only means that there is no danger, but it does not mean that there is no element of fear, for example, in a deep sea, people will only see a piece of light in front of them, and they may not know that behind them, close at hand, a bloody mouth opens slightly! Or a giant shark, or some other hungry sea monster!

This is what is known as deep-sea fear, right? Xu Ning thought to himself.

Soon Xu Ning found himself in a fog, a fog in the water world at the bottom of the sea, not knowing whether it was the mud and sand on the bottom of the sea or other debris, and his vision became more and more unclear.

In order to guard against possible dangers, Xu Ning protected the water splitting spur on his chest and slowly approached the bottom of the sea.

The bottom of the river is not the bottom of the river, and it is not the middle of the clear stream, and the pebbled riverbed looks very beautiful. The bottom of the sea is very dangerous most of the time, for example, the silt and deep pits on the bottom of the sea, and if you fall into it, you will never want to get out. At the same time, most of the creatures hiding at the bottom of the sea are dark and poisonous, and they are of course happy to have food brought to them.

Xu Ning knew this better than anyone else, of course, he was not afraid, the Gang Qi defensive shield around his body was not used to see, and it was more useful than those steel armors in a certain way.

The speed has been set to the slowest level, but he clearly feels a force attracting his body, as if he is approaching downwards intentionally or unconsciously. And this approach is not an ordinary method, like a whirlpool.

He was a small stone struggling in the whirlpool, and it wasn't until he felt something hard in his feet that Xu Ning put his mind at ease.

It seems that the bottom of the sea is not silt and sand, but rock.

But why is the rock so flat? Like, as if it was specially polished.

Xu Ning was a little strange and bent down, wanting to see what the bottom of the sea was like.

On the Qiangmu ship, Sharon had completely dismembered the armor, and the skeleton inside was only half of its body, and the other half was probably broken when he pulled it up. When looking for clues, there was one thing that made Sharon very concerned, that is, the more this armor looked, the more it looked like it was worn by the army of the Imperial Family of the Water Country.

If it is a tribal coat of arms, it will generally not be passed down for that long, because in less than a few decades, the entire clan will re-elect a leader, and the clan emblem will undergo some changes. Sharon used to be the bodyguard of the Emperor of the Water Country, so he was naturally no stranger to this kind of insignia, and it was obvious that these were the troops of the most elite army in the Water Country, the Emperor's Forbidden Army! At least, it was the forbidden army a long time ago, because almost all the armor now has been replaced with gold, and these are alloys of nickel and silver.

"Strange, how can there be the corpses of the forbidden army of the Water Country here? It seems that it has been at least 100 years old! ”

In his wonder, Sharon suddenly remembered something, a terrible legend that he would remember, to be exact!

Yellow Springs! Could it be ......

Sharon jumped up from the deck and shook the anchor's chains desperately! This is the only way to warn Xu Ning!

Xu Ning under the water had already bent down and approached the flat rock under his feet, and after the mud and sand in front of him gradually settled, he actually found that the so-called rock could be moved, and wiped off the attachments on it with his hands, and what appeared in front of him was actually a special shield! Where's the rock!

Suddenly, the shield moved to the side, and a pair of pitch-black skeleton eyes were facing Xu Ning, and two cold rays of light shot out from inside. (To be continued......)
