Chapter 17: The Tides I

Uncle Ming also said: "Hu Zai is reasonable, I used to run the boat, I saw a Thai man buy a pebble, put the stone in an empty bowl, overnight, can give birth to a bowl of water, the Thai businessman thought that there is a treasure in the stone, want to exhaust the secret, I can't think of smashing open a look, there is only a pool of clear water in it, and two transparent small fish, soon died, and the stone is worthless, he was almost stimulated to jump into the sea, this stone in the water, the fish in the water, is a natural creation, but there is nothing surprising, but this stone mirror ancient coffin, It's a rare treasure, you can see how dense the water lines are on it......"

Uncle Ming said that this was suddenly a little difficult, such a large sarcophagus, the cabin has been filled with all kinds of materials, how can there be a place to put it? The fat man said that this is too simple, I saw a mezzanine on the edge of the bilge, and there is no place for the wood to be removed, let's not waste time, put this green head in place, and hurry to the sea eye, Qb(5). C0M\

The ship's boss Ruan Hei's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he didn't let the fat man and others put the sarcophagus into the bilge, I saw that his expression was different, and I knew that there must be a reason, so I asked him what the hell, let him make the words clear, what is the name in the bilge?

Ruan Hei was about to kneel on the ground and beg everyone, but he didn't explain the reason: "There is an extra piece of wood partition in the bottom boat, but I don't dare to tear it down, none of us will survive if we tear it down." After speaking, he begged Shirley Yang again: "Miss Yang is the most sensible and good person, you can persuade them quickly, don't dare to do this." ”

Under our repeated questioning, Ruan Hei still refused to say a word, and only as a last resort did he say: "You also know that seven Englishmen died on this sea willow ship, they died in the bilge, and I really can't say anything else, in short, you can't see the things in the mezzanine, and you will die if you see them." ”

The "Trident" was originally converted from an old sea willow boat, although it was remodeled by the British. But the main parts of the hull are still made of the sea willows on the old ship, and the ambitious British salvage team of seven members of this group of seven people died inexplicably en masse, and the place of the incident was the bilge of the Trident.

I also searched many times before going to sea, but most of the fishermen and traders on Coral Temple Island did not know the details. At this time, I heard the ship's boss Ruan Hei mention this matter, and told us that there was indeed a small mezzanine in the cabin, but the contents of the cabin could not be seen in any case, and if someone saw it, it would be unfavorable to the ship, and that was how the British died.

I looked at Uncle Ming, and saw that he was also at a loss, obviously I had never heard of such a story on a ship, so I began to suspect that Ruan Hei was alarmist, and I had to go to the bilge to find out.

Ruan Hei begged Shirley Yang to help persuade him. He knew the previous owner of the sea willow ship. Not long ago, the British modified this ship, and he was also hired to help, so he knows some unknown insiders. He swore that there was something hidden in the bilge of the ship, but seeing that thing would do more harm than good to the members of the ship, and if the things in the bilge compartment did not exist, everything would be business as usual, and it would have no effect on the ship, and it was by no means alarmist, it was a lesson that many lives were exchanged for.

I saw that Ruan Hei, the boss of the ship, had sworn a poisonous oath, and I knew that if these superstitious sea wolves swore a heavy oath. Since he said that there are things in the bilge that cannot be alarmed, as long as they do not affect our voyage, there is no need to deliberately destroy these special customs and taboos.

Ruan Hei was relieved to see that I had finally agreed, and said, "After I go back after picking eggs, I will definitely tell you the secret here, only those who don't take this boat can know, otherwise I will inadvertently talk about this matter on the ship." It's about to get into trouble, and there is nowhere to escape in the vast sea. ”

I nodded in agreement, but after thinking about it, this kind of rhetoric of pretending to be a ghost is not good for me, and when I go back, what is the use of knowing the reason for this? Sooner or later, I'll find a chance to see it first, and then I'll not do anything that is kept in the dark.

Because of the limited space on the ship, the huge stone coffin, and the wood filled in the middle of the coffin had to sink into the sea again, and only the innermost sarcophagus was retained, and everyone packed the materials in the bilge into the sarcophagus until it was filled, so that the space in the cabin was enough to accommodate the sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus was as cool as water, and many watermelons in the cabin could be put into it, which could play a good role in preserving.

When we were busy in the bilge, I went up to drive the boat while it was dark, I deliberately paid attention to the sandwich board, except that it was completely sealed and difficult to move, I really couldn't see anything special, just put my ears on and listened to the movement inside, I was discovered by Shirley Yang, she came over and patted me on the shoulder: "What kind of skills do you practice?" ”

I was listening intently for movement in the mezzanine, thinking about what I couldn't say or see. Without being wary of it at all, she was startled by Shirley Yang, and hurriedly pointed to the sandwich deck to her: "I'll scout and reconnoitre, you can also come and listen, there seems to be something moving here......"

Shirley Yang didn't go with me to reconnoitre, she seemed to have something to say to me, and motioned to me to talk to a different place, so I went up to the back deck with her, at this time Ruan Hei and Uncle Ming reconfirmed the course, and were sailing the boat at full speed towards the Coral Spiral, the "Trident" was riding the wind and waves on the sea, and the two "diving bells" hanging behind the boat also swayed with the hull.

After the black tide on the bottom of the sea, a large area of the sea seems lifeless, and the schools of flying fish that can be seen on the sea surface from time to time are gone, and there is only the boundless sea water around it, which seems to be vast, Shirley Yang looked at the end of the sea and sky on the deck, and said after a while: "Professor Chen is my father's friend before his death, his wish is my father's wish, I don't care about the big risk, but the South China Sea is really vast, and the ruins in the coral spiral are even more mysterious, I'm a little worried about whether we can successfully find King Qin's bone mirror, after all, our salvage team is small and small. ”

I said to her: "What is there to worry about, there are few people and small boats are not a problem, although we have few people, but we all have the ability to take charge of their own affairs, this is called the soldier is expensive in the fine but not in the many, ancient China Chen Sheng Wu Guang uprising, at the beginning there were only eight or nine hundred people, they sent out to the world the emperor will Xiang Ning have a kind of great cry, ascend a call to uncover the pole, once swept the world, but then why did this team fail? Just because there are more and more of them, they have become a rabble, and they have lost the purity of the revolution and the combat effectiveness of unity, we should learn the lessons of the failure of the peasant uprising, even the guide when we went to the desert, Master An Liman, all know that Hu Da's myth is - the world will only win if it is united, and in addition, it is necessary to be extra cautious when absorbing team members, rather gnaw a bite of peaches than eat a basket of rotten apricots. ”
