I went with her into the cabin, which was filled with piles of things, and there was barely a place to put them, and it seemed that they were preparing in such a hurry that all the material was thrown at the entrance before it could be brought into the hold. As I walked, I observed that it was mainly diving equipment, large instruments, food, ropes, and oxygen cylinders, among which oxygen cylinders accounted for the majority.

We made our way through the cargo to the back compartment that connected to the mechanical room, where there were several slab beds with blackened blankets that had been oiled. On one of the beds sat a middle-aged man who was a little fat and bald, with a shiny face, who saw me come in, stood up very nervously and shook hands with me, and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, my surname is Zhang." ”

I had a bad first impression of this man, but out of politeness I shook his hand, and his hands were very strong, and it seemed that he had done manual labor before.

Miss Ning introduced to me: "Mr. Zhang is a consultant specially invited by our company, an expert specializing in the study of the underground palace of the Ming Dynasty, and this time he is mainly responsible for the analysis of this undersea underground palace. ”

I didn't have much interest in the orthodox archaeological community, and I hadn't heard of his name, but seeing his smug face, I had to say, "Long admiration"

The bald man waved his hand exaggeratedly and said: "Experts don't dare to be, everyone just studies and researches, but I am lucky, I happened to publish a few papers, small achievements, don't mention it." ”

I've never seen anyone talk like that, and I don't know how to answer him, so I just say, "It's too humble."

He was very appreciative, shook my hand again, and asked me, "I don't know what Mr. Wu is this time?" With all due respect, it seems that Mr. Wu's research subject is relatively unpopular, or because I am lonely and unheard, I have never heard of Mr. Wu's tuba"

These words clearly want to belittle me, and I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, I have a bad temper, and I almost have a seizure when I hear this, but when I think that I have only been on the boat for a short time, and the environment is not yet familiar, I have to suppress the anger, and I said angrily: "I specialize in digging." ”

My tone was already very bad, but he didn't hear it, oh, and said, "You're an architect?" No wonder, it wasn't in our circle, but we were half of our peers, you build the house of the living, I study the house of the dead, we still have an intersection. ”

As soon as I heard it, it seemed that although this person's speech was unreliable, he was not the kind of person who violated the law, so I patted him and said, "I'm not an architect, I'm an excavator, and I have to dig up the dead man's house you studied first." ”

I regretted it a little when I said this, I hadn't promised them to go down in person, and now the situation over there is unknown, and everything has to wait for me to actually see it, thinking and adding: "But when the time comes, whether to dig or not, it depends on the situation, if the situation does not allow, you can't dig if you want to." ”

As soon as he heard that I was a labor-management excavator, and knew that I was joking with him, his face darkened and he was a little unhappy, and I didn't bother to pay attention to him, so I asked the woman about the situation in the sea area where the accident occurred.

It turned out that the third uncle couldn't determine the specific location of the submarine tomb ** at that time, he only found four possible areas, one by one to find them, and later they must have found it, but the last report of the missing ship was relatively brief, and it did not mention which sea area they finally confirmed, so now I have to find them one by one.

Their plan was to start with the nearest Fairy Reef, then go to Woody Island to replenish some supplies, and then go to the other three sea areas near Qilian Island, stopping for no more than half an hour. As for the way to find, the sea water in Xisha is very clear, and the visual entry into the water can reach a depth of more than 30 meters in good light, and the current activity in Haiti is ordinary, and there is no flowing xng strong sea sand, so the robbery hole a few days ago should not be covered.

And the fishing boss of this ship himself is also very familiar with those seas, we laymen see the bottom of the water is the same, but in their eyes, the bottom of each body of water has its own characteristics, as long as there are some changes in the topography of the seabed, he can see it.

I found out from the woman's conversation that she has a lot of confidence in the survival of these three people under the water, I don't know where this blind confidence comes from, and I also hope to accept her noble words, the third uncle should not have anything to do.

The bald head looked at the speculation that my woman talked about, and left him alone, probably a little unhappy, and went to sleep by himself, I saw that this person was already middle-aged, and his temper was still like a child, and he couldn't help but laugh, there was news for a hundred years of immortality, and I don't know if I would get along.

Thinking about it, the boat shook, and the fisherman behind him lifted anchor and started the boat, and the shaking of the boat began to be violent, because it was an old boat, not only swaying from side to side, but also an irregular swaying back and forth, as if in a cradle. After more than ten hours of traveling, I was shaken by this and tiredness, and I yawned. The woman was very interested, so she let me have a good rest, and I was honestly unkind, I was indeed tired, and I fell asleep when I lay down.

When I woke up, the ship had already sailed to the sea, I looked out through the window, and found that it had only been a long time to realize that the sky had changed, and the whole sea seemed to have turned dark green all at once, and the sun disappeared into a large dark cloud, and the light shone down through the gaps in those clouds, forming a huge gold silk engraving in the sky, and at the same time casting a piece of gold scales on the sea, which reflected each other up and down, which was very spectacular.

But the good times did not last long, and the dark clouds soon joined together, blocking all the sunlight, and the sea suddenly turned into a terrible black s, and the waves rolled up, and the boat swung with the waves, and when we were in the valley of the waves, the sea was on the side of the ship, as if it was about to be swallowed by the waves, which was very terrifying.

I saw the boatmen running nervously to and fro, reinforcing the ropes that held the supplies in place, and although it was very urgent, there was no fear on the face of the captain of the boat.

I'm used to staying in the city, I only feel very excited when I see this scene, I want to go to the deck to help, and after going up, I know that it is not what I thought at all, in this situation to stand firm on the deck, not to react quickly, you have to be very familiar with the waves and the boat, know when the next tilt will be after this tilt, and prepare in advance. I obviously didn't have such a high level, and after a few steps, I had to hold on to a protruding hoop.

At this time, a few crew members seemed to see something and began to scream, I couldn't understand Hokkien dialect, I followed their fingers, and vaguely saw the left side of the ship, behind the rising waves, as if there was something.

Because the distance was relatively far, I couldn't see it clearly, but I thought it might be a ship, and at this time the woman walked behind me, and I asked her what these people were calling?

Her hair was wet and tossed by the wind, and she listened carefully and said, "It was as if they had seen a ship." ”

The captain of the boat walked up to us and said in half-baked Mandarin: "It seems that there is an accident on a ship over there, and according to the regulations, we must go over and take a look." ”

Of course, there was nothing wrong with that, the woman nodded, and the captain quickly issued a series of instructions to his fellows in the local dialect, and immediately the ship turned around with a full rudder and headed to the left.

The sea in the wind and waves is like a hill, every wave is a mountain, and our boat rushed against the waves, and then broke the waves, and every time the people on the boat took a bath in the sea, and the whole body was wet I don't know how many times, I have never felt so excited, I can't help but want to howl.

We rolled over a dozen waves in a row, and we could finally see the general outline of the thing.

At this time, I heard the captain of the ship scream in horror, and then several crew members panicked, and I hurriedly asked the woman what had happened, and when she heard this, her face suddenly changed, and she grabbed my hand and said, "Don't look back, it's a ghost ship!" ”
