Chapter 25: Empress of the Ming Dynasty

We checked the coffin lid first, but the strange thing is that there are no nails on this coffin lid at all, not that the nails make people get up, but there are no nails on this coffin lid at all, this is the first time we have encountered this kind of thing, this coffin, there are more and more strange places.

Mai Lao naturally saw it, he flipped his hand, meaning that we should push the coffin lid down directly, and several of us used all our strength to push the coffin cover, but unfortunately it was useless, the strength of this coffin was not at all I could imagine, it was simply unbreakable.

Jiao Ba stopped at this time, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the square on the top of the coffin lid, and then gestured, "The problem should be here, it's useless to push hard." At this time, I suddenly remembered the golden ball, the door just now, it was the golden key that opened, and now this coffin is so weird, it is likely that there is also a mechanism, now things are somewhat eyebrow-raising, these two golden little things, are found in the previous two coffin female corpses, Jiao Ba said at the time, those two women, are in the palace, although they are not too high status, but they are by no means idle, he suspects that it is the queen's side, now it seems that it should be right, the two female corpses are on the body, It turned out that it was all about unlocking the secrets of this shipwreck.

At this moment, Jiao Ba hurriedly took out the golden ball again, and Mai Lao gestured, "Yes, this is the key." Jiao Baxie smiled, and slowly put the golden ball into the small hole above the square, the size was just right, when the golden ball entered the small hole, I saw that the coffin began to change slightly, first I could hear some strange sounds, as if it was the sound of the ball rolling, and there was a dead silence in the cabin under the deep sea, and the slightest sound could be heard.

Then there was a slight tremor of the coffin, we hurriedly dodged back, afraid that the coffin would suddenly explode, everyone looked very nervous, clenched the lighting and speargun in their hands, I took the opportunity to take a look at the oxygen cylinder, there were still ten minutes left, we had to hurry, there could be no accidents now, we had to succeed.

After a minute or so, the coffin stopped shaking, and then, the coffin lid slowly opened, like a box, the whole coffin opened upwards, and after a few seconds, the coffin lid was completely opened, and when the coffin lid opened, I seemed to feel some changes in the cabin, this change was not external, but an atmosphere, and I felt that the sea was changing slightly.

We were not very far from the coffin, and by the illumination of the lamp, I could vaguely see that there was a person inside, but at this moment, no one dared to take the initiative to step forward, and the big guys were all holding spearguns, staring at the coffin tightly.

At this time, Mai Lao had to take the lead, he beckoned to me, meaning to let me go over with him to have a look, I nodded, and as Mai Lao swam towards the coffin, the two of us naturally drove the others, Jiao Ba and Chang Shan and others also hurriedly followed.

When I swam to the coffin, by the light I saw the corpse inside, and there was a woman lying in it, and this woman was not decomposed, the body was still very well preserved, but the skin on her face was very pale, very pale, like a blank piece of paper.

The clothes she wears are very gorgeous, I can see at a glance, this is the phoenix robe of the queen of the Ming Dynasty, she wears a dragon and phoenix pearl crown on her head, that is, a phoenix crown, this thing is valuable, there are jade and jewels on it, it is absolutely priceless, wearing a red large-sleeved shirt, adding a xia veil on the clothes, a red Luo long skirt, a red jacket, a hairpin on her head, embroidered with a golden dragon and phoenix pattern, plus embroidery, the whole outfit is enough to reflect her identity.

But when I saw this woman's appearance clearly, I always felt a little familiar? There is a feeling of déjà vu, isn't it, she is from the Ming Dynasty? How could I have met her? But at this moment, a picture suddenly flashed in my mind, I immediately screamed 'woo', I remembered who this woman was, she was the woman who had been pestering me in my dreams, and reached out to me to ask for things, I said how to be so familiar, the feelings turned out to be really her, it seems that Jiao Ba is right, this woman is really the queen of the Ming Dynasty, it seems that the whole thing really has something to do with Emperor Jianwen.

Mai Lao stared at the woman in the coffin with wide eyes, and he turned his head to us and gestured to us and asked, 'Is that her?' Jiao Ba nodded vigorously and gestured quickly, "That's right, this is the person we are looking for." Mai Lao hurriedly instructed, "Carry her out first." A few of us hurriedly got to the hands and carried the woman's body out of the coffin, and then searched through the coffin, and strangely enough, there was no burial goods in the coffin, and it was empty, and the whole wreck seemed to have nothing but this corpse.

We left here quickly, after coming out of the gap in the wreck, carrying the female corpse straight to the sea, but I don't know why, my heart has not been calm, is it all too smooth, except for Hua Haijiao, we have not encountered other dangerous things, from the beginning of the gap, the road is very smooth, almost unhindered.

But if this woman is really the queen, can it go so smoothly? At least there's some mechanism or something like that in the cabin, so it's not going to be so smooth, right? I always feel a little wrong, it's not a good thing that it's too smooth, but it's also possible that I'm thinking too much, and that Hua Haijiao should be the biggest obstacle.

As soon as we were out of the sea, Martin pulled his neck and shouted, "Jenny, put the rope down, hurry." ”

Jenny and Li Xin have been standing on the deck of the bow of the boat, after I went out to sea, I saw them at first sight, Jenny answered, and asked people to put the rope down, Li Xin asked on it, "Zhongyi, what have you found?" ”

I took off my respirator and casually shouted, "You'll find out later." ”

We tied the female corpse to the rope and pulled her directly onto the boat with the rope, and then the rest of us climbed up the lifeladder, and when we got up, the female corpse had been placed on the deck by other sailors, but there was a strange thing, the skin of the female corpse was changing color, and when she was under the deep sea, her skin was pale and pale, but after we were transported to the ship, her skin had begun to turn black, although it was not obvious now, but I could see it at a glance.

After the corpse was placed, the other sailors hurriedly left, it seems that they all have some scruples about this female corpse of the Ming Dynasty, no one will want to get too close, but then again, even if it is a modern corpse, this thing is very unlucky.

Jenny hurriedly came over and asked, "This corpse is your new discovery?" ”

Jiao Ba said proudly, "That's right, this corpse is what we're looking for, don't you see it?" The clothes she wore were the phoenix robe of the queen during the Ming Dynasty, so it can be seen that she was the queen of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, the secret of this nautical chart should be the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen. ”

Mai Lao said at this time, "Don't talk about this yet, let's go over and take a look." ”

Li Xin was squatting next to the corpse at this time, she was observing, probably hearing our footsteps, she said without looking back, "It seems that what Jiao Ba said is right, this female corpse is really the queen of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Jiao Ba squatted down with a smile and said, "Facts speak louder than words, the clothes worn by this female corpse are enough to prove that she is the queen of the Ming Dynasty, but"

"Just what?" I hurriedly asked.

Jiao Ba glanced at me and frowned, "It's just that the queen's burial place is too simple, just a shipwreck, or a very small shipwreck, not as big as the shipwreck of the two female corpses before, and there are no funeral goods in the shipwreck, it's really desolate enough." ”

"Mr. Jiao Ba, are you so sure that this female corpse is the queen of the Ming Dynasty? Haven't you thought maybe someone was impersonating her? Martin asked suspiciously, but he was right, not impossible.

Jiao Ba sneered and said, "Pretending to be her? Pretending to be a queen? Let's hear it. ”

Martin said disapprerovingly, "If someone else wears the queen's phoenix robe, won't they pretend to be the queen?" So it seems a bit too far-fetched to conclude based on this outfit alone. ”

Jiao Ba stretched out an index finger, pointed at him and said, "Let me tell you Martin, you don't know Chinese culture at all, don't say it, just based on this phoenix robe, you can really conclude that she is the queen of the Ming Dynasty at that time." ”

Martin was a little angry, "You're really brainless." ”

"Martin, you don't understand at all, in the imperial period of ancient China, who dared to pretend to be the queen? and also wore a phoenix robe to be buried, which is a big crime, and it is to be exterminated by the nine clans. Jenny said, standing aside and looking down at Martin.

"That's right, and the queen herself doesn't think she will allow someone to be buried in her place, and the phoenix robe is not allowed to be worn by others, besides, this person is dead, there is no need to make a stand-in, if this person is still alive, maybe there is still this possibility." Jiao Ba explained.

Chang Shan suddenly said, "Then have you ever thought that the queen may really be alive?" ”

His words stunned all of us, and Jiao Ba immediately stood up and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"Since the old man on the island can live forever, why can't the queen?" Tsuneyama said.

Jiao Ba looked at him and said, "If you say so, then Emperor Jianwen is probably still alive?" ”

"It's not impossible." Chang Shan said calmly.
