"The Lost Ship Chapter 6"
"Zhu, Suzaku Key?"
I held the black-and-white photo in my hand and subconsciously screamed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Although the thing on the photo is blurry, and the thing is still being blocked by someone's hand. But when I saw the exposed corner, I felt that this thing had something in common with the other four keys.
Grandpa was also shocked by my scream, pushed his reading glasses and asked, "What's the matter, what is the fuss?" ”
I waved my hand and swallowed back what I was about to say. Although Grandpa has been washing his hands for many years, he is also very concerned about these things, and if he tells him about it, he will go with us at that time. He is so old, if he is tossing like this, he can't guarantee that something will happen.
Thinking of this, I smiled awkwardly, and then said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered something, that grandpa, I still have some things, and I'll see you next time I come back." ”
Before my grandfather could speak, I hurriedly put away the photo in my hand, and then immediately got on the nearest plane to Sichuan. Along the way, I kept looking at what was on that picture. Although I don't dare to be sure, my intuition tells me that this thing must be the last key we are looking for, the Suzaku Key!
The fat man received my message early in the morning, and when he got back, he couldn't wait to study the things in the photo. The fat man is a veteran in this area, as long as he can see the photos of things, no matter what age it is or how long it is history, the fat man will see it at a glance.
The fat man took a magnifying glass and studied it for a long time, in order to deduce whether this thing was the Suzaku key we were looking for, the fat man also deliberately took out the four keys he had found before, and compared them one by one. After a long time, the fat man sighed.
I looked at the fat man's expression, his face was flat, but at this time I couldn't calm down, and hurriedly asked: "Fat man, is it or not, you can say something!" ”
"This..."
The fat man, who has always been more bold in doing things and speaking, suddenly hesitated at this time. Then he picked up the photo, pointed to the thing on it and said: "Old Wei, most of this thing has been covered by his hands, so he can't see anything for a while, but..."
When I listened to the first half of the fat man's words, my mood was already beginning to be lost. But after hearing the fat man's turn, I rekindled a glimmer of hope and cried out, "Say, but what, how can you talk and pant for breath?" ”
The fat man smiled, and then said: "I just used these four keys to compare with the object in the photo, according to the shape, this thing and the key we are looking for, it should be similar, and looking at the pattern exposed below, I think, there is a good chance that we are looking for something." ”
"What are the odds?"
The fat man looked down and thought for a moment, then showed an 'eight' gesture and said with a smile: "Eighty percent!" ”
Hearing the fat man say this, my original feeling of loss suddenly ignited, and said: "Grandma, this thing can't find it, and when you don't want to find it, it pops out by itself!" ”
However, the fat man's expression did not change much, but he was a little sad, looked at me and said: "Old Wei, don't be happy too early, I didn't say that the thing on this photo must be the Suzaku key we are looking for, I just said that there is a great chance that it is." ”
The fat man paused, then continued, "And, that's just one of them, and the most important thing is that we don't even know where this thing is now. And you said that this is a photo taken when the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded and occupied the Old Summer Palace, and now that decades have passed, even if we want to find it, we probably can't find it. ”
I was poured cold water by the fat man, and I realized that there are still many uncertainties in things, indeed, even if the thing on this photo is really the Suzaku key, then how do we know where this thing is? After the Old Summer Palace, most of the treasures in it were not lost and turned into a pile of ashes in the fire. It is to be taken away by those invaders and lost overseas. If this thing is abroad, it will be even harder to get it than to climb to the sky!
After thinking about it for a while, I didn't want to give up just like that, and finally found the clue to the Suzaku key, if I just gave up, I was more or less unwilling in my heart. At that moment, I said: "Fatty, don't you still have some old connections in the United States, you ask them to inquire about it, and see if this thing has appeared in recent years." ”
The fat man sighed, and then said, "If this thing had appeared in recent years, then I would definitely have heard a little bit of earwind, but no, I guess this thing hasn't appeared for a long time." ”
I bit my lip, then looked down at the photo, and before I knew it, I saw a ship of black iron still standing behind the group. In the blank part of the photo, a few English letters are also faintly revealed, although it is very blurry, but it can still be distinguished.
"S e a this is s i l k."
"Strange, how do I seem to have seen these letters somewhere?"
When I made out the letters on the hull, a feeling of familiarity and strangeness filled my mind. In the dark, I always felt as if I had seen these letters before, but for a moment I couldn't remember where I had seen them.
"I remember, it's the shipwreck!"
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed, and I finally remembered where I saw the letters. A few years ago, when I was in the United States, I saw a report. In the 90s of the last century, when an American warship returned home, it encountered a major storm in a certain area of the Pacific Ocean, and in that storm, an American warship named "Haylis" was buried in the sea. All 74 officers and men on board were killed in the storm. This shocked the American government at the time. The U.S. government also sent several search teams to salvage the wreck, but each time they were disappointed because they didn't know where the wreck was. In this way, the U.S. government quickly abandoned the search plan, and the matter was handled by accident and was not resolved.
"Fatty, I seem to know where the key is."
The fat man looked puzzled, but after I finished telling this matter as it was, the fat man suddenly laughed, and then said: "Grandma, if you don't say it earlier, it will hurt Lao Tzu's heart for a long time!" ”
I shook my fingers, and then said with some concern: "But the problem is that this shipwreck was sunk in a storm when I returned home in the 90s of the last century, and even the search team sent by the US government did not find it, so how can we find it?" ”
The fat man didn't think so, and said: "At that time, the technology was so backward, and it was specialized, but it was just to find a piece of sea and go back to pay for it, what is this?" ”
I shook my head, and then said, "That place in the Pacific Ocean is not small, it is the head of the four oceans, and I don't know how many ships have sunk, how can you be so sure that you can find them?" ”
The fat man smiled, and then said mysteriously: "The methods are all thought up by people, and we will talk about it when we go." ”
In the fat man's mind, Tianding's matter is the most important. Four of the five keys to find Tianding are in our hands, and now only the last key is left, and now that we know the whereabouts of the key, the fat man naturally wants to solve it quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night. At that moment, he quickly contacted the ships that went to sea, and also asked Da Zhuang to make some preparations, striving to go to sea in the shortest possible time.
I don't know what the fat man went out to do, I just stayed at home and studied the map of the Pacific Ocean. I want to find out where the ship was shipwrecked in the Pacific.
The U.S. government attached great importance to this matter at that time, and it not only spent a lot of manpower and material resources on this matter, but also spent a lot of time searching. However, after all, the people in the U.S. government are not dry food, and after searching for such a long time, there will definitely be some useful information. However, all that information is a state secret, and it is impossible for us to get our hands on it.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean on Earth and is close to China. It covers about 46% of the Earth's water surface and about 32.5% of the total area. The Pacific Ocean stretches from the coast of the Antarctic continent to the Bering Strait, with Asia and Oceania to the west and the Americas to the east. It is 15,500 kilometers wide from north to south and spans 151° latitude. Including the area of the sea, it is 181,344,230 square kilometers.
It would be difficult to search for a shipwreck that has been sinking for decades in such a large area of water. Although the fat man said that he had a way, according to my understanding of the fat man for so many years, it is estimated that he should have just wanted to save face and talk about it at that time, and then drop the chain at a critical moment.
"Ding Dong!"
While I was gathering my thoughts, the bell rang for the door outside. I thought it was the fat man who came back, but I didn't think much about it, and after opening the door, I turned my head and walked back, and sat on the sofa with my ass, wanting to discuss the specific details with the fat man. But the strange thing is that after more than ten seconds, there is still no movement outside.
I frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and quickly got up and walked back. Outside the door, stood a mysterious man in a shirt, wrapped in a single body. I squinted my eyes and stepped forward, and then asked, "Who are you?" ”
The man heard my voice, but he didn't answer, just slowly raised his head. And when I saw the man's face clearly, I couldn't help but take two steps back, and then gasped, and my face could only be described in two words, shocked!
"You, little brother?!!"
