Chapter 13, Shipwrecks on the Bottom of the Sea
Two days later, in the afternoon, according to the place I designated, Mai Lao took his group to prepare to go to the sea, Junzi of course followed, and our group stayed to rest, I hope they all go well, when Mai Lao is about to go to the sea.
Jiao Ba instructed them, "Mai Lao, I have to remind you, if you encounter something like a human face flower at the bottom of the sea, remember not to touch it, it is spiritual, if you don't touch it, it will not wake up." ”
Mai Lao dressed everything, made an OK gesture with us, and then took his group to the sea, we waited patiently on the boat, an hour later, Mai Lao and the others still did not come back, the safety rope on the fishing boat was sometimes lengthened, sometimes not moving.
"Mai Lao, why haven't they come back yet, nothing will happen, right?" Jenny said with a little concern that she had been on the deck since Mai Lao and Junko went to sea, and she never left.
"Probably not, Mai Lao is experienced, even if something happens, it won't be difficult for him." I patted Jenny on the shoulder and put her at ease.
Jenny looked at me and felt that her eyes were a little different, and I smiled and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?" ”
Jenny also smiled reluctantly and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that this trip to sea is not going well, and my heart is always unsteady." ”
I pretended to be relaxed and said, "Oh, I'm worried, it's okay, let's wait." ”
About another twenty minutes or so passed, and all the other sailors returned, except for Mai Lao and Junzi, but they still found nothing, and no trace of the wreck was found.
Jenny saw that Mai Lao and the others hadn't come back yet, she couldn't sit still, "Why haven't Mai Lao and Shunzi come back, nothing will happen, it's really worrying." ”
"What are you worried about, they're back, you see." Jiao Ba pointed to the front.
Sure enough, in the distance, two heads leaked, and one of them was waving at us. "Hurry up and get the ship over, I guess they've found the wreck." Jiao Ba said excitedly.
"How do you know?" I asked, giving him a disdainful look.
"You don't care about this, if you don't believe it, let's just look at it, you must have found it." Jiao Ba smugly raised his eyebrows at me.
The fishing boat drove forward for a few minutes, we put down the lifeladder, Mai Lao and Shunzi climbed up one after another, as soon as they returned to the boat, Mai Lao looked extra excited, "Found it, this time it was really found." ”
Jenny was also excited, "What? Mai Lao, have you found the shipwreck? ”
"Well, this time I really found it, just below our current location, I just found it, we haven't had time to detect it, and the oxygen is not enough, so I have to surface quickly." Mai Lao took off his wetsuit as he spoke.
As soon as the big guy heard that the shipwreck had been found, everyone's face leaked a joy and excitement, and the sailors hugged happily, if nothing else, just because the shipwreck was found, it was equivalent to finding half of the treasure, what did we desperately go to sea for? Isn't it just to get two extra dollars?
"Great, we've finally found it." Jenny's excited expression changed, and she almost waved her hands.
I sighed and said, "Oh my mom, all the hard work we've been working so hard these days has not been in vain, haha." "I'm very happy, I'll have to go into the water in a moment to see what this wreck is like.
Jenny looked at me and smiled at me.
Mai Lao decided to rest for a while before going into the water to explore, although the wreck was found, but it was not sure whether it was a Ming Dynasty shipwreck, Jenny seemed to be only interested in the Ming Dynasty shipwreck, an hour later, at dusk, we were ready to go to sea again, we had to finish the survey as soon as possible, so that the wreck could be salvaged.
There are three people in the water this time, me, Mai Lao, and Junzi, the wreck has been discovered, for the time being, it is just a probe, there is no need for so many people, we dressed everything, I saluted Jenny with a military salute, and then turned over and went into the water.
In addition to me, Mai Lao and Shunzi were each with an underwater light, I still followed closely with a speargun, and we dived at a constant speed along the way, because there was still a little sunshine, this time the water was obviously much better than the last time, at least I could see everything around me clearly.
When I just felt the pressure of the sea, the deep water was blue, we dived for about 30 meters, with the light in Junzi's hand, I vaguely saw a behemoth under the deep water, but in just a moment, the color of the sea began to darken, from blue to black, the sun went down so quickly?
Junzi touched me a little excitedly, and pointed down, Mai Lao swam past us at this time, quickly dived to the bottom, the impact of the wreck became clearer and clearer, when I and Junzi quickly dived to the bottom, I was shocked by the scene in front of me, but more excited, this is the first time I have seen an ancient shipwreck, it is for me, there is a mysterious atmosphere.
This wreck is as if it is asleep, lying peacefully at the bottom of the water, it seems extra calm, but this kind of tranquility, but there is no breath of life in sight, as if it is sleeping like a dead person, which makes people feel a chill in their hearts, even if it is me, it is inevitable.
Mai Lao gestured to us, signaling the three of us to split up to probe, since I had no lights, so I had to go with Junko, and the two of us first marched from the stern of the boat and along the side of the ship, first to detect the size of the wreck.
During the procession, Junko kept sweeping every corner of the wreck with lights, the original appearance of the wreck was no longer visible, the entire hull was covered with moss, and overgrown with unknown sea creatures, and now only the overall structure can be seen.
I gently tried it with my hands, the thickness of the moss is very deep, it seems that the ship has been sinking underwater for many years, at least more than a hundred years, dead silence, there is still a dead silence around, along the way, we did not find any creatures, it seems that around the wreck, there is not even plankton underwater.
This makes me dare to be very strange, this wreck exudes a cold energy, I can obviously feel much colder than the surrounding water, it makes me feel a little uneasy, I and Junko arrived at the bow of the ship at this time, I roughly calculated, this wreck can be more than forty meters long, it is not as big as I imagined.
Then we slowly swam to the deck, and when we got to the deck, I knew why there were no creatures around the wreck, and on both sides of the deck of the wreck, there were two dimly glowing human face flowers, these two human face flowers were not as big as I had encountered before, and they were obviously smaller than the previous ones, and the light source emitted by these two flowers was very dim, very dim, and I could vaguely see that it was red light.
If you don't look closely, it's not easy to find at all, of course Junko saw it, he turned his head to look at me, I gestured with my hand, and soon he understood what it was, according to what Jiao Ba said, this thing is sleeping, as long as we don't touch it, it will definitely not wake up.
