The South China Sea Returns to the Ruins Chapter 30: Haunted (Part II)
All of a sudden, the four of us who dived into the wreck were trapped in the narrow and inclined captain's room, and they even felt cramped when they turned around, as if they were locked in a steel coffin filled with water, but they relied on the abundant oxygen in the scuba and the well-equipped for demolition, and Captain Touchjin had an innate immunity to "claustrophobia in the closed room", so he did not feel excessive tension and despair, but the depressed mood could not be avoided. I looked around with a dive flashlight to see if there was another exit from the broken cabin. A cabin apart, outside is the sea water in the ruins, when the hull sank, it was torn open a gap, maybe Gu Chai can get out, but the rest of the people are difficult to get through even if they don't carry scuba on their backs. I asked the fat man to see if he could use a hydraulic demolition device to make the breach a little bigger, and although the water outside was fast, as long as he climbed the hull, he could dive back to the surface.
The fat man raised his hand in agreement, and the two of them broke it together, and Shirley Yang tapped me twice on the shoulder to show me the bulkhead diagonally below. I remember just seeing a figure there, the mud and sand covering it have been wiped away, but under it is a large mirror, part of the mirror body has been broken, there is a light source on the diver's body, and when I shine in front of the mirror, I can see the figure and the light shadow overlapping with the ups and downs of the water, this light and shadow distortion of the situation really makes people feel hairy.
I thought to myself, maybe my mind was full of things about looking for "King Qin's bone mirror", and the director felt quite strange when he saw any mirror, but there was such a big mirror in the captain's room, it was really wrong, could it be that the captain who wore a big gold watch liked to look in the mirror before his death? Even if you go out to sea, you have to always look in front of the mirror to tidy up your appearance?
Looking at the frame, it is very simple, all carved mahogany, although the form is elegant, but it is very inconsistent with the modern characteristics of this cruise ship, and it does not match the rest of the luxurious items in the cabin. I couldn't figure it out, I looked sideways at Shirley Young beside me, and she shook her head at me, this mirror was weird, but it didn't show much of a name.
I thought to myself that as long as there is a hidden danger, it should be eliminated as soon as possible. So he wanted to smash the mirror completely, but at this moment the water in the cabin surged, and the fat man had already opened the gap wide, and grinned there like a big mouth. He waved at us to get out first, when suddenly a sawtooth shark got into the hole in the hull of the boat from the outside of the water, and the sawtooth shark was so strong at the bottom of the water that it crashed headfirst into Guchai, pushing him from the outer side of the cabin to the inside.
Uncle Ming said that Gu Chai was a dragon household among the Tan people in ancient times, and he had a "sea array" body on his body, which was symbolized as the genus of dragon scales, and the fish and dragons in the water could not be injured. Who would have expected to be attacked by a shark, but fortunately I didn't let him fight the other shark in the passage alone, otherwise he would have lost his manpower.
Fortunately, the shark's mouth was born on the ventral surface, and it came in through the wall of the boat to hurt people, and its body was not flexible, so Gu Chai was not bitten by this shark. Since he was a child, he and his master Ruan Hei have been fishing in the sea to collect eggs and catch green heads, and he has seen some underwater scenes, although the incident happened suddenly, he can still be calm. His back hit the hatch, his feet on the wall a little, like a nimble black dolphin, flashing into the dead corner of the cabin that the shark's head could not attack.
The sawtooth shark suddenly attacked, failed to bite the living person, but was stuck in the hole in the wall of the ship, maybe the sawtooth shark did not expect this kind of thing, a little confused, the shark head swinged, I don't know that it wants to get in, and wants to go back.
The fat man hid on the side, saw the huge shark head dangling in front of him, the position was very handy, just the diamond chainsaw in his hand had not been put down, the sole of his foot stepped on the hydraulic pump, shook off the chainsaw, and showed his skills in sawing wood when he cut the queue in the Daxing'an Mountains, and used the ferocious undersea overlord sawtooth shark as a piece of log that was upside down, and sawed it happily.
It is not difficult for a diamond chainsaw to dismantle iron and copper, and the flesh and blood of the sawtooth shark can withstand dragging it back and forth on its body, and the huge shark's head was suddenly sawed off by Qi Opera and rolled into the cabin. The back half of the fish body, which had lost its head, was like a large piece of wood, drifting into the rocky ruins with the current, and the blood in the capsule was filled with blood and water, and the vision through the frog mirror was all obscured by the turbid blood mist.
If I hadn't been able to speak underwater, I would have scolded a long time ago, this fat guy only cared about himself for a while, and the shark's head that he sawed off came out of the boiling blood, and the thick blood was bound to attract the nearby group of sharks, I thought of this, I didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly touched the shark's head, hugged it and pushed it out of the boat.
As soon as the head of the sawtooth shark floated outside, it was bitten by several sharks, and the water flow in the ruins was disturbed, and the sea beasts and sea fish that were caught in the eyes of the sea were all different, and the population and food chain were all disrupted. The hungry shark is even more red-eyed, and wants to bite whatever it sees. I saw through the cabin a group of sharks gathered outside the ship, and the sharks were so fierce and cruel underwater, how could they be defeated by humans? Hurriedly removed the desk board from the captain's room with Shirley Young and blocked it from the hole in the hull, so that no more sharks could get in.
The shark blood in the room gradually disappeared, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, but the front and back were blocked by the evil shark, and the diving team was completely in the dilemma of having no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground. The big shark inside the wreck was five or six meters long, to say the least, and it was staggeringly large, but I didn't have time to look at what kind of shark it was. Sharks are also called "sharks" in ancient times, the body shape is like a shuttle, the head is large and the tail is thin, the back part gradually thins from the head, in order to reach the tail, their bones are soft, the skin is thick and black, the scales are granular, rough and tough, the gill holes are bare, there is no gill cover, the two fins of the chest and abdomen are wide and large, like flying wings, and the two caudal fins are very different in size, mostly produced in the tropical ocean. There are many sharks in the South China Sea, and its fins can be dried as shark fins, which are the best choice in the banquet, and the fish skin can be made into sword skin sheaths or clothing, so there are also egg farmers who specialize in catching sharks when fishing, and they can be directly exchanged for daily necessities in the market.
We don't have the heart to consider the price of shark fins and shark skins at the moment, and Shirley Yang and I racked our brains to recall the records of "shark repellent" in the process of moving mountains and reclaiming the sea. There are many species of sharks, with pale gray backs and snow-white bellies for great white sharks; The slender body with blue skin is the "blue shark"; Sharks with brown reddish backs and red spots on the sides of their bodies are called "tiger sharks"; The one with jagged protrusions on the left and right of the abdomen is the "saw shark", that is, the kind that has just been cut alive by a fat man into two pieces; There is a kind of head with transverse bones in the shape of a "Ding", eyes at both ends, and a very strange appearance is a "hammerhead shark". These species are the most common on the bottom of the sea, in addition to many different species, although the habits will be different, but in the ruins it seems that these kinds of sharks are there, mixed entrenched in the cave crevices formed by shipwrecks and dead corals, suddenly attacking each other, without shark repellent agents, it is really difficult to prevent.
