The weight of the cargo carried by the Shiranami Maru is not light, and the size of the hull itself is also very large, so it is absolutely not enough to pump air into the cargo hold with a single air duct.

Hei Qi had analyzed before, three air ducts pumping air at the same time was already the lowest limit, and if there was one less, it would be impossible for the White Wave Pill to float to the sea, so now it was necessary to send someone down to the sea again and insert the other two air ducts.

But no matter what Hei Qi said, no sailor stood up, after all, everyone saw the tragic death of the diver before, and no one wanted to fight with their lives.

Seeing that no one volunteered to enter the water, Liu Cong immediately made a decision and put forward an additional price that was staggering. The eyes of the sailors who were gathered around lit up when they heard the price, but then the light in their eyes dimmed again, and none of them came forward.

Sailors can be said to be one of the most bitter professions, drifting at sea all the year round, exposed to the wind and sun, but also have to worry about some dangerous emergencies such as storms, maybe when they will lose their lives, it can be said that the profession of sailor itself is to exchange life for money.

It is certainly okay to exchange your life for money, there is one of the biggest premises, that is, you have to have a life to spend money, and now you know that there is a chance that there will be no return when you go into the water, so no matter how high Liu Cong raises the price, these people will definitely not go.

"I'll go!" These three words seemed to be the dawn in the darkness, which suddenly illuminated Liu Cong's heart, he hurriedly turned his head, but was surprised to find that the person who said this sentence was Chen Ziyang.

When Liu Cong was looking for someone to go into the water just now, Chen Ziyang had been observing the dead diver. In addition to the soul being sucked away, the diver was also visibly shriveled up, and although he had not turned into a dried corpse, the essence and blood in his body had been sucked clean.

And the weirdest thing is that the deep-sea diving suit is not even damaged at all, so where is the blood sucked out of these sucked up? He couldn't figure it out.

Recalling the screams of more than a thousand passengers when the Bailang Pill sank recorded in the data, and then looking at the miserable appearance of the divers in front of him, Chen Ziyang knew that the coffin was very evil, and it was not something that ordinary people could deal with.

Seeing that Chen Ziyang was willing to come forward, Liu Cong was naturally very happy, as Chen Ziyang Yang Mao Mountain Master, he should be able to deal with evil things when he went into the water, but then Liu Cong thought for a while, but shook his head.

"Senior brother, I am very grateful that you were able to come forward, but I think this is inappropriate, you are not trained, and going down into the water in a deep-sea diving suit is different from what you usually do on the shore, and your skills of subduing demons and eliminating demons are not at all able to be used.

And you haven't done this kind of thing underwater, the water pressure is very high at such a deep water, even if you want to move, it is very difficult, and it is unlikely that you will insert the trachea into the place where it should be inserted when you go into the water, so I think it is still very inappropriate for you to go, which adds a lot of risk and may not be able to gain anything.

I know you want to go down and see if you can deal with that evil thing, but this is really not something you can do, I understand your intentions, and I don't want to lose you here for no reason. ”

Liu Cong's analysis is not unreasonable, the underwater situation is unknown now, and it seems to be very unusual, if Chen Ziyang is allowed to go down at this time, not only may he not be able to complete the task, but it is also very likely that he will encounter danger, which Liu Cong does not want to see, even if he is very anxious, he was not confused by Chen Ziyang's proposal at this time.

"Out of the way, out of the way." Hei Qi, who was standing on the side, heard that Chen Ziyang wanted to go into the water, so he hurriedly stood up and said.

"In fact, it is not so difficult to enter the water in a deep-sea diving suit, if you want to move, there is a single-person submarine that can be borrowed, and in a deep-sea diving suit to move underwater is no different from on land, there are very few places to pay attention to, as long as you pay a little attention, even untrained people can move freely underwater, but the speed is a little slower."

Joke, it's rare for someone to volunteer to go into the water, and Hei Qi doesn't want to miss the opportunity. If it was true that the salvage operation was unsuccessful because no one dared to go into the water, his large amount of expenses would be in vain, which was the last thing Hei Qi wanted to see.

Although it was for the purpose of earning profits, what Hei Qi said was also the truth. As long as you act in accordance with the essentials, even people who have never been in the water can complete some simple operations underwater, after all, one of the biggest advantages of the deep-sea diving suit is that it breathes very smoothly underwater, but it is a little stuffy.

Hearing Hei Qi's words, Liu Cong's face showed displeasure, and he understood that the reason why Hei Qi said this was because he was afraid that his reward would be ruined. Although it is said that out of consideration for a businessman, Hei Qi's idea is understandable, but he should not let his brother take risks.

Seeing Liu Cong's expression, Chen Ziyang understood his thoughts, smiled and said, "Liu Cong, don't worry, although I may not be able to complete the task, nor may I be able to deal with the evil things in the ship, but I am still a little sure of self-preservation."

Besides, if I don't go at this time, no one will go, the Demon Removal Guardian Dao is what our Taoist family should do, how can it be possible to let these ordinary people take risks again, you also hope to get the Iron Book as soon as possible.

I know you're doing it for my good, so I'll put on a deep-sea diving suit first, go down to the sea and try it, if it's really inconvenient, I won't force it, if it's really like what Hei Qi said, even people who are not professionally trained can use deep-sea diving suits, I think I can try it. ”

Liu Cong thought for a while, and reluctantly agreed, there was really no way out. Just like Chen Ziyang said, if he doesn't go, there is really no one, and now getting the iron book is more important than anything else, so he can only try it first, if he really can't do it, it's not too late to think of other ways.

Hei Qi pulled over a few sailors, and three or four people surrounded Chen Ziyang, helped him put on a bulky deep-sea diving suit, and explained the essentials to him on the side.

Before putting on the deep-sea diving suit, Chen Ziyang was still thinking that the helmet of this suit was so big that it must be very tiring to wear it, but when he actually put it on, he found that the heaviest part of the deep-sea diving suit was not the helmet, but the iron boots under his feet and the copper gloves on his hands.

When he thought about it, he understood the reason. In addition to the fact that the deep-sea wetsuit is so heavy, it is also very important to stabilize the diver's center of gravity in the deep sea, in addition to the need for a very strong shell to resist the huge water pressure.

Fat clothes and helmets are naturally made of a lot of materials, so after going down to the water, divers are prone to be top-heavy, if a person in the water is not moving properly, get a big head down, not to mention affecting the action, it is not easy to turn over, and heavy iron shoes can make up for this.

After a few tentative activities, Chen Ziyang asked Hei Qi and the others to put him into the sea and adapt to the diving suit in the seawater. In fact, just like Hei Qi said, there are not many essentials to pay attention to when wearing a deep-sea diving suit, and the most important point is to move slowly when you are in the water.

While adapting to the diving suit, Chen Ziyang carefully followed the action essentials of Hei Qi and others to familiarize himself, and after 20 minutes, he gave Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai a thumbs up, and then with the help of a single submarine, he slowly swam to the deep sea.

To say that it is a one-man submarine is actually an underwater booster. This booster is somewhat like a small missile, with a huge searchlight in front and a propeller in the tail, and the person using the booster only needs to hold it firmly with one hand and press the button on it, and the booster will pull the diver forward quickly underwater.

Because of wearing this sea diving suit, Chen Ziyang didn't bring his magic weapon, and even if he did, there was no way to use it at all, and the thick copper gloves felt very poor, and there was no way to use the Xuanming Ancient Sword at all. However, just in case, he still tied the Soul Suppression Paperweight to his diving suit, which is also the only magic weapon that can be used underwater.

In the glow of a searchlight, three black air ducts side by side guide the way forward. Chen Ziyang held the booster in one hand, gently supported the three tracheas with the other, and slowly swam along the trachea towards the place where the Bailang Pill sank.

Quiet! This is the feeling of Chen Ziyang after going down to the sea, although the voices of Liu Cong and others kept coming from the headphones, although he could hear the sound of his own breathing and the sound of the propeller turning on the booster, but all of this gave Chen Ziyang a feeling of quiet, very quiet.

This kind of stillness is a feeling that comes from the heart, and under this feeling, Chen Ziyang feels that his heart is itchy.

The further you go into the sea, the darker the light becomes, but it's not yet pitch black, which may have something to do with the fact that the water isn't too deep.

At the same time, I don't know if it's because of the series of strange noises before, the surrounding sea water is very turbid, under the light of the searchlight, you can see a large number of impurities floating in the sea, moving with the rotation of the propeller on the booster.

Everything else is fine, the only thing Chen Ziyang feels the most awkward is that the few circular holes in the helmet of the deep-sea diving suit are too small, and the vision is very bad, and even sometimes he has to forcibly change the angle by turning his neck in order to make himself see more clearly.

After a while, a hazy shadow appeared in the distance, this shadow looked a little like the bow of a steamer, and the three air ducts pointed straight to the outline of the ship.

The closer you get to the white wave pill, the more impurities float around, and even many of them look like sediment on the bottom of the sea, recalling the vibration that the dead diver said, Chen Ziyang estimated that these sediments were floated up in the previous vibration.

After getting closer, Chen Ziyang finally had a chance to see the face of this shipwreck. The exposed hull of the ship was covered with mud and sand and some sea creatures, and it was impossible to see what Shiranamaru had been. Only the remnants of the iron railing at the top of the ship let him know that this was indeed a shipwreck.

The three airpipes parted here, the middle one went straight into the inside of the Shiranamaru through a hole in the ship, and the other two airpipes had been coiled together by the previous divers and placed on the bottom of the sea on the left and right sides.

After turning off the propeller of the booster, Chen Ziyang held the booster and shook it from side to side, letting the pillar of light sweep around the hull.

When he went into the water before, Hei Qi had already told Chen Ziyang the location where the two air ducts needed to be placed, and now he only needs to follow Hei Qi's description to find the location where to place the air ducts.

After seeing a breach in the bottom of the ship and a square valve not far away that opened a gap, Chen Ziyang grabbed an air duct and walked towards the valve.

The dead diver did a very good job, and the trachea was stacked very smoothly by him. Chen Ziyang grabbed the tip of the trachea, and he didn't need to spend effort to straighten it out, and he didn't have to worry about the trachea being entangled, which saved him a lot of things.

Approaching the valve, Chen Ziyang used a searchlight to shine inside, but there was nothing to see except sea creatures and mud and sand, so he inserted the air duct inside.

At the end of the air duct there is a manual runner, by shaking the upper crank, the two runners snapped on both sides of the air duct will rotate in opposite directions, so that the air duct will stretch forward on its own, even if the air duct is not too hard, it can be inserted forward for a long time with the help of this runner.

The second trachea was inserted without any danger, and Chen Ziyang kept his vigilance in the process, but fortunately, nothing strange happened.

But in his heart, he felt as if it were the calm before the storm, and the tall hull in front of him was like a sleeping beast, and he might wake up at some point.

Picking up the third air duct, Chen Ziyang walked towards a breach in the lower part of the hull, and when he inserted the third air duct into the cabin, suddenly a strange sound came from the breach in front of him.

This sound caused the surrounding sea water to shake, and even Chen Ziyang felt that his heavy deep-sea diving suit also vibrated with it.

"Not good!"
