Father Ye had been waiting anxiously with his neck stretched up, and from time to time he went to take a look at the watch that Ye Yaodong had placed on the stool.

"It's been a long time, why haven't you come up yet? Did you encounter any problems? ”

The old father's heart was really broken.

This son is really too tossed, he has lived for more than 20 years, and there is no time to stop, and it makes people so uneasy when he puts it aside.

Father Ye felt that he still had to continue to watch him for a few more years, otherwise he couldn't think of what he was doing again while sitting at home, and it might be even more uncomfortable.

He walked back and forth frequently, looking at the near sea from time to time, and then at the distant sea, feeling that time passed very slowly.

However, he did not dare to pull the rope tied to the side, for fear of affecting his activities below, until there was a noise on the water surface, and a human head was exposed to the water, and his heart was put back in his stomach.

"Why did it last so long? Aren't you just looking for a box? Aren't the boxes just around? I remember it very well a few days ago, and it was in this position, so there shouldn't be a big error? ”

Ye Yaodong took away the mask on his face before wiping his face and said, "Let me go up first." ”

It was too physically exhausting to float in the water for too long, and to tie up a large box of things.

"First up, first up."

As soon as he came up, he didn't bother to catch his breath, so he immediately asked his father to pull the box up with a machine, and then he collapsed on the deck, panting.

"Found the chest? Both ropes tied to the box? How did your clothes get torn like this? ”

Father Ye looked at his ragged appearance, and he didn't know that he thought he had just come back from begging.

"Tie it up, one box is very light, the other box is very heavy, I don't know what is in it, I don't have to pick it up when it is stacked, I can only tie up the top one first and drag it up, you put the two boxes up first."

He looked down again at the tattered appearance of his body, up and down through the cracks in the reef, his clothes and pants were scraped with many holes, and his arms and thighs were also scratched several times, with several red marks.

But I didn't feel any pain, but now that I think it hurts, I really feel a little painful, and it's salty, and it feels a little hot.

He flicked his arm and stretched his leg, "When I was tying up, I hit the reef wall and scraped it." ”

As he spoke, he untied the pocket around his waist, "When I was looking for it just now, I happened to see a few little green dragons hidden in a gap, so I caught two of them." ”

After pouring the two little green dragons into the bucket, he told his father what was happening down there, and told his father about the strange gap.

Father Ye listened to his description and asked with some confusion, "Are those boxes deliberately hidden inside?" ”

"I think so, too, if it hadn't been deliberately hidden inside, the boxes in that gap wouldn't have been so well placed, and if they had fallen off the ship, the boxes would have been scattered everywhere and wouldn't have been stacked neatly."

"That's right, how can the fallen yard be put in it."

Ye Yaodong frowned, propped his chin, looked at the green mountains and green waters on the island in the distance, and thought silently, and his eyes lit up in an instant.

"Ah, Daddy, do you think this could be hidden by pirates?"

"Huh?"

He patted his knee, "It must be, this reef is so close to the island, didn't the border guard find a very hidden cave on the island before, saying that it only found a few boxes of cultural relics, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings." ”

"Didn't you be unwilling to search for several days before leaving? The pirates must be hiding everywhere, the treasure must not be hidden in just one place, in case it is caught in a net, there will be nothing, this location on the bottom of the sea is so close to the island, and not very deep, it must be hidden by them! ”

"Yes, for sure! These chests must be the treasures stolen by pirates, and the cunning rabbit has three holes, and the eggs will not be put in one basket, these must be secretly hidden by pirates to the bottom of the sea. ”

He stood up excitedly, his face full of excitement, he didn't expect to let him pick up a bargain?

In ancient times, there were pearl divers, and there were also fishermen who specialized in fishing for abalone and sea cucumbers, and going down to the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than ten meters was nothing for some professionally trained people.

When I found the box before, I didn't bother to figure out where the box came from, because I only glanced at it, and the bottom was covered with water and weeds and silt, and I didn't know how it was going, and I didn't know what the situation was underneath.

Now that he went down, after seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but ponder.

I feel that I should have guessed correctly, otherwise who would have stacked the boxes on the bottom of the sea for no reason, and it would not be a shipwreck. Besides, if the ship sinks, the boxes on the ship will also slosh.

Father Ye also pondered in his heart, and felt that what he said was very reasonable, he didn't know the situation of the undersea box before, he only knew that there was a box, but now it seems to be very in line with his guess.

"Let's pull it up and open it first, according to what you said, the border guard only found a few boxes before, it must be more than that, let's see if it's worth anything in it? In case it's those calligraphy, paintings, spices or something, it's useless to soak in water. ”

"It definitely won't be those, people are not stupid, they can't soak in water, and they deliberately put them in the water to hide, these things must be put on the shore, and the gold, silver and jewelry may be hidden under the water."

"Well, most likely...... It's coming up... It's up..."Father Ye was also excited when he thought that it might be gold, silver and jewelry, and when he saw a box on the sea, he hurriedly spoke out and called him to come over and carry it together.

"Huh? So light? ”

Father Ye was a little surprised, this was a bit out of his imagination, shouldn't it be heavy?

"There is one light, and one is very heavy, this one is lifted up and put on the side, and then another rope is collected, this one is light, and the other one is heavy."

He wasn't sure what would be in the fluttering box, he shouldn't think about it, how could a whole box of gold, silver and jade be light?

The father and son carried the boxes and the water to the bottom of the deck.

The box was badly faded by the blisters, and there were a few aquatic plants wrapped around it, and there was a little mud on it, but it could still be seen that it was quaint, which was not something that could be found in modern times.

When the father and son put the box on the deck, they heard a crisp clang.

"Huh? Splinter? Ye Yaodong felt that he had misheard, raised it slightly, and heard a crisp sound of fragments.

"Grass, is it porcelain? And then it shattered into pieces, so there is a sound of shards? ”

"Doesn't sound like that, does it?"

Father Ye was a little unsure, and he also raised a corner, and both of them pricked up their ears, and they were a little unsure.

"I can't hear it."

Ye Yaodong shook the rusty lock on it, and snorted, "Pull up the other box first and take a look, and then open it together later." ”

He was afraid that he would be disappointed when he saw what was inside if he cut off the lock of the box now, so he would better pull the two boxes up together and open them again.

At least the other box is heavier, and it feels more dramatic, so it won't be disappointed too much.

There are so many chests underneath, if only one box can be opened to reveal treasure, it will be because he has made a lot of money.

Father Ye nodded, and turned his head to get another rope.

Ye Yaodong circled around the box, kicked it twice, and it was still the crisp swaying sound, it felt like the sound of the fragments, but I didn't know if it was a fragment of porcelain.

"Don't kick it, what if it's not broken, or it's already good, what if you kick it bad?"

"Okay."

He had nothing to do for a while, so he leaned over to the side of the boat and waited for another box to be pulled up.

The island scenery in the afternoon is particularly magnificent, the summer sea breeze ruffles the calm sea, and the vast water surface sparkles in the fiery red sun, which looks like shimmering silver from afar, and looks like crumpled green satin up close.

It may be that people are happy and refreshed, and now he looks at everything with a filter, and feels that today's scenery is extraordinarily beautiful, today's sky is extraordinarily beautiful, and even the reef on the side is on top because of the low tide, he feels very beautiful, and the sea breeze feels fresh and sweet.

"It's coming... It's coming..."

He was excited to immediately go over to help, hoping that after the box was fished up, it would open it and give him a shocking blow. The one just now, he didn't count on it.

"Come up, one person on the side."

"This one is really heavy, be careful when you take it."

As soon as Ye Yaodong's words fell, he saw his father's hand that had just carried the box sinking down fiercely, and his expression was also distorted.

Although he himself had been prepared, when he really reached out to take it, he almost didn't hold it up, and his face was red.

"This weighs so much?"

"Yes, I told you a long time ago, this one is very heavy, and the front is very difficult to tie under the water."

"Lighter... Put it down... Don't hold your hands on ......"

After the two boxes were placed together, Father Ye couldn't wait to get the kitchen knife, originally because of longline fishing, there was a gap broken kitchen knife on the boat, which was specially used to kill fish.

"Which one do you want to open first?"

"This one, this one, the heavy one, let's see what it is first?" As he spoke, he kicked the box twice, only to hear a deep thud, which was different from the sound.

He didn't have hope for that anyway.

I won't feel disappointed if it's good first and then bad, anyway, there is already Zhuyu in front.

He was very confident in the heavy box, there was not even a sound of shaking, it was so heavy, and the sound was thick, it must have been tightly stuffed inside, and there was definitely something good.

"Okay, then let's open this box first, and wait for that box."

I don't know if this lock has been soaked in the sea for a long time, and the inside has been corroded, it is particularly brittle, Father Ye cut it a few times, and the whole lock fell off.

Father and son were excited.

Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up, rubbing his hands back and forth, and then opened the box.
