Chapter 490: Where the Shipwreck Is
What Tang Dayuan said has some truth.
For the rest of the things, Zhang Yi needs to communicate with Fang Yiyi.
Mention diving.
Fang Yiyi also wanted to go down.
Because, she has been talking about diving and shooting.
This is what she thinks is the most attractive video.
So.
Zhang Yi had no choice but to explain to her.
After talking for a long time, I finally made sense of her.
said that Zhang Yi and Tang Dayuan would go down to explore the road first, and after figuring out the situation at the bottom of the sea, they would take her down.
Otherwise.
In an emergency, everyone is very dangerous.
Fang Yiyi had to nod, after all, shooting diving videos is for the fire, but you can't die for the fire!
After everything is ready.
Zhang Yi and Tang Dayuan put on heavy diving suits, found a suitable place, and dived deep into the seabed.
With the pressure gauge on the wetsuit, the values are getting bigger and bigger.
They have also moved away from sea level.
Hundreds of meters deep into the ocean floor.
In fact.
Below the surface of the water around the island, there are slopes of that kind.
The special lights on the wetsuit can shine dozens of meters underwater. You can see that there are many reefs around this small island, not far away.
It's the same as Tang Dayuan guessed.
There are indeed a lot of reefs around here.
Thanks to the experience of the ship's boss, Lao Qin, when he approached the island, he perfectly avoided those reefs.
After seeing this reef group.
Tang Dayuan gestured to Zhang Yi.
The general meaning can also be seen by Zhang Yi.
Prepare to look around the reefs.
The location of the reefs does not change, so it is indeed very likely that the shipwreck is near these reef groups. With an "OK" gesture, the two of them headed towards the reef over there.
About half a minute later.
Tang Dayuan stopped suddenly.
He also immediately turned off the penetrating light on his forehead.
He turned around and motioned for Zhang Yi to turn off the lights as well.
After turning off that light.
The lighting equipment on their bodies, at the bottom of the sea, can only shine at a distance of two or three meters around.
Tang Dayuan pointed in the distance.
About thirty meters away, a behemoth could be faintly seen.
That's not some undersea creature.
Rather, a huge submarine.
In fact.
It's not hard to imagine.
This submarine may be the deep-sea salvage equipment used by the Fang family and the Coboni company.
I really didn't expect that they would even use a submarine for a Ming Dynasty shipwreck.
Estimate.
It should be the Coburney Company, a submarine obtained through the Malay side.
The submarine is here, and the wreck is certainly not far away.
No wonder the big ship of the Coberni company was not found along the way, it turned out that they used not a ship at all, but a large submarine.
The plan that Fang Yiyi stole may be fake.
This way.
Because I was worried about being discovered by those people.
Tang Dayuan and Zhang Yiquan both turned the lights on their diving suits into dark light, so that when they shuttled under the sea, it was not easy for those people to find their whereabouts.
There are many reefs nearby, many of which are covered with coral trees.
Even.
And that rare red coral.
It looks very beautiful.
Swimming along the reef for about ten minutes, Zhang Yi and Tang Dayuan got closer and closer to the submarine. At the same time, in the sea ahead, I saw the wreck.
That ship, indeed, is very big.
Although it is not as good as the current giant ship, it is definitely a giant ship under the conditions of ancient times.
The huge ship, instead of completely sinking to the bottom, got stuck between two huge reefs. The lights on the submarine were on, illuminating one side of the big ship.
Oddly enough.
There were no other lights on the shipwreck.
Since the shipwreck was discovered, but the treasure was not directly searched and salvaged?
What the hell are they doing?
Tang Dayuan continued to gesticulate, ready to go over and take a look.
And then.
Zhang Yi and Tang Dayuan went around to the back of the wreck.
A little closer to the wreck.
The huge shipwreck, in addition to the damage caused by hitting the reef, has many huge holes in the bottom of the ship.
The place where the ship sank may not be here, but there is an undercurrent that brought it here, sandwiched between two huge reefs.
The hole in the bottom of the boat is huge.
Tang Dayuan drilled in directly, and Zhang Yi followed.
The ships of the Ming Dynasty were already relatively advanced.
There are watertight compartments at the bottom of the boat.
This structure is mainly used to prevent some emergencies.
If only one of the cabins is broken, it will not cause the ship to sink, because there are other cabins that provide buoyancy. Even if two or three cabins are broken, the speed of sinking will slow down a lot.
Able to give the survivors, enough time.
Tang Dayuan entered this compartment through the hole, and there was nothing in it. He searched for a while, and only found some coins from the Ming Dynasty, but the coins were very rusty.
On the partition in front, there is a door.
After a long period of sea erosion, the wooden door has long been decayed.
Tang Dayuan pushed gently.
The whole door was shattered.
Through this door, there is another compartment at the bottom of the ship.
Here, there are many wooden boxes.
On the surface of the wooden box, there are some marine crustacean creatures, such as barnacles, and even, some wooden boxes, there are corals.
After Tang Dayuan passed, he directly reached out and opened one of the wooden boxes.
It's all blue and white porcelain.
Tang Dayuan picked up one of the plates.
After taking a closer look, he shook his head and put it back again.
Zhang Yi also went over to see it.
Because there is a wooden box on the plate, there are relatively few polyps and barnacles attached to it, but from the perspective of the workmanship of the porcelain, it should be the porcelain of the folk kiln.
When the official ship returned, in addition to the porcelain rewarded by the tribute, it also brought some porcelain for trade and export from the people's kilns.
That's normal.
Tang Dayuan was not interested in this kind of pure export porcelain.
He immediately went to look at the other boxes.
In the entire cabin, there were almost a dozen boxes.
There are several boxes, all of which have been opened.
However, judging from the traces of opening, it should not have been opened in a short period of time. Thinking of the corpse next to the lake in the island, it is not difficult to guess that these empty boxes should be the group of salvage people who took the things away.
This is not a good sign.
But.
Tang Dayuan persevered.
It's been searching.
Afterwards.
He found a box with a batch of blue-glazed bowls.
A box of blue-glazed porcelain from Longquan kiln.
Most of these porcelains are relatively well preserved.
Zhang Yi subconsciously looked for a set of blue and white porcelain cups and cups that formed a set with the previous blue and white pots. However, I didn't find it, and finding a small teacup here is really looking for a needle in a haystack.
More than a dozen boxes, all after opening.
Tang Dayuan finally found another batch of official kiln porcelain.
Moreover, all of them are blue and white glazed red porcelain.
There are large pots, and there are jade pots.
There are also large bowls with skimming mouths.
For these receipts, Tang Dayuan is still very satisfied.
He carried a backpack with him, and loaded all the official kiln porcelain. There are six pieces of porcelain in this batch, and the condition is still very good.
There are probably two more compartments in front.
After Tang Dayuan put away the porcelain, he continued to open the door in front of him.
Zhang Yi brought some other porcelain and followed.
But.
After the door is opened.
only to find that more than half of the front of the boat was destroyed.
