237,237 Treasure Ship(1/2)
On the dark sea, the broken ship in the mirage appeared again in the afternoon, but this time the ship was not floating on the sea, but actually drifting towards the beach of Xingkong Island.
The crowds who were setting off the Kongming Lanterns gathered towards the beach.
After a while, the ship ran aground not far from the beach, and the hull tilted to one side. Looking closer, it was larger than everyone imagined.
Zhao Pu looked at a "scarred" ship and wondered, "This ship doesn't look like an ordinary merchant ship."
At this time, Xu Qing and Han Zhang came with people.
Two small boats came from the fishing port. The third master and the second master took some crew members on board and wanted to sail to the big ship to have a look.
As a result, Zhao Zhen was the first to run over and said: "I..."
But before he could say the words "I want to go too" after that, he was dragged away by Nangong.
Zhao Zhen was very dissatisfied and turned back to glare at Nangong.
Before Nangong could glare at him, Zhao Pu glared at him fiercely - You caught up with the ship before you even figured out what it was?!
After Zhao Pu glared at him, he wanted to get on the boat. That means - let me help you explore the way first.
But before he even set foot on the boat, he saw Zou Liang and the shadow guards glaring at him.
Finally, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang got on the boat, together with Lin Yehuo who came to join in the fun, and everyone else was waiting on the shore.
Zhao Zhen was dissatisfied, "It's not fair!"
Zhao Pu was also dissatisfied - uncle, why should I be treated the same as this guy who doesn't know martial arts?
Liangchenmei and the other three were also very dissatisfied. Only the fourth son hugged Gongsun and said, "Daddy's boat is so scary!"
Gongsun rubbed his son's round face, and sure enough, only his dumpling here was a normal person!
The two small boats slowly approached the big ship.
The closer we got, the more eerie the ship looked, especially because the hull was dark in color, with many scratches on it and a lot of gray-white barnacles on it, like scabs on a worsening wound.
,shocking.
And the weirdest thing is the bow.
On the bow of this ship, there are three giant logs that thrust outwards. The logs have sharpened heads and are covered with a layer of bronze. They look like three pointed spears with their heads facing outwards.
Under the pointed spear, there were two depressions. Because the damage was too serious and it was dark, it was difficult to see clearly from a distance. When Pang Li took a closer look, he saw that it turned out to be half a skull face...
"Holy shit!" Mr. San, who was standing on the bow of the boat, couldn't help but cursed, "Is this a pirate ship?!"
Han Zhang felt the same way.
The second master raised his hand to signal the crew to slow down.
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao also looked at each other, and Lin Yehuo, who was watching the fun and holding a dog, couldn't help but ask, "Aren't there pirates up here?"
The crew were all very experienced, and the small boats were approaching the stranded ship one on the left and the other on the right.
After stopping on both sides, everyone first listened to the movements on the ship.
At this time, there was no sound except the waves.
And the moonlight is very bright tonight. In addition to the sky full of stars, there are also so many Kongming lanterns that everyone put up in the sky just now. With this light, you can see an uncoordinated piece of wood on the hull of the ship.
This piece of wood is about as thick as the mouth of a bowl, long and straight. The whole piece of wood seems to have been polished and looks very smooth. It penetrates into a hole on the side of the ship... or in other words, this hole is penetrated by this piece of wood.
caused by passing.
The hull should be damaged.
Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang and Lin Yehuo were on Han Zhang's boat. From their side, the hole in the boat was not small.
The second master said "tsk", "This boat is so badly damaged, it should have sunk. How did it float up?"
"Second brother!"
At this time, Xu Qing's voice came from the other side.
Han Zhang immediately asked people to move the boat around the stern to Xu Qing's side on the other floor.
At this time, Mr. Xu and other crew members were raising their heads and looking at the position of the ship's hull in surprise.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also raised their heads, and behind them Lin Yehuo shouted, "Wow!"
…
On the other side of the ship, there were three bronze spikes piercing through the side of the ship. They looked like the heads of a triangular harpoon.
I thought about the bowl-sized log at the back. Isn't this the handle of this huge harpoon?
Everyone circled around the big ship twice, and finally saw clearly that the broken ship was pierced by a huge triangular harpoon.
Zhan Zhao made a visual inspection and found that the harpoon might be more than three feet long, and the harpoon head alone was more than five feet wide... Who can use such a big harpoon? Even the giants found in Kuaiji Mountain before could not use it!
"Good guy!" Mr. Xu opened his mouth for a long time and couldn't close it. "Is this a fight for the sea monster?"
"Siren?!" Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo looked at the third brother with their eyes wide open, and their tone was a little higher.
Xu Qing nodded, "Ah! Siren! A giant sea monster with eight legs!"
Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo both raised their faces and thought, how can eight legs be long?
Fifth Master had no choice but to explain, "I just caught that kind of octopus."
"Oh..." Huofeng and Zhan Zhao thought about it, and then asked the third brother together, "Isn't that one soft and weak? Can you use a harpoon?"
Xu Qing's eyes widened and he threatened the two of them, "What the hell? That thing is said to be as big as an island!"
Both Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo were frightened.
Zhan Zhao also asked, "How long will it take to eat that leg?"
Huofeng glanced at him speechlessly - no matter how old it is, you want to eat seafood as long as it's seafood, right?
There was a rope ladder hanging on the side of the ship, but it looked very fragile with age, and the rope ladder was still attached to the hull and was covered in barnacles and shellfish.
Han Zhang also said, "This boat must have sunk at the bottom of the sea for a while, and somehow it floated up again!"
"There should be no one up there, right?" Zhan Zhao was worried just now, thinking that some kind of ship would come floating with a bunch of corpses on it to solve the case, and the murderer happened to be on Xiankong Island... Anyway, he had thought about it for himself.
A complete plot.
After analyzing the results now, I feel that this is just a pirate ship that sank many years ago. So the ship is 80% empty, right?
Xu Qing and Han Zhang also nodded, saying it would be best to go up and have a look.
At this time, I heard shouts not far away.
Everyone turned to see, okay, Zhao Pu finally couldn't hold back and ordered the shadow guards to row over, accompanied by the curious Zou Liang and Ye Zhiqiu.
In the end, Zhao Zhen didn't get on the boat either, and was held in place by Nangong's belt.
"I just said it doesn't look like a merchant ship!"
When they got closer, the Ninth Prince looked up at the bow of the ship, "This shape is clearly a pirate ship!"
Ye Zhiqiu looked at the harpoon in shock, "This is so powerful!"
Zou Liang also nodded.
On the shore, Liangchenmei's three children protested to Gongsun - why can't we go too? We are not weaklings who don't know martial arts!
Next to them, Zhao Zhen and Xiao Sizi, who were playing in the sand together, looked askance at each other - they were impressed!
…
The lack of a spiral staircase naturally made it difficult for these experts. They easily jumped onto the ship and landed on the deck.
Because the ship is in a grounded and tilted state, the deck is also tilted. However, the wood of the ship's deck feels good, and it does not feel crispy when you step on it.
There was a layer of sand on the boat. Xu Qing picked up a handful and rubbed it in his hands. He said it was sea sand. Sure enough, it had been buried in the sea for a while and later floated.
This ship is still a sailing ship. Although the mast is broken, the remaining part is more than two feet high.
The rudder on the bow of the ship has been rotted and broken. There is a large bundle of chains on the ship. The iron chains thicker than legs are probably used to tie the anchor... but there are only chains and no anchor.
There is another two-story boat building at the back, with broken glass, and carvings with white paint on a black background can still be vaguely seen on the wall. They are colorful, but most of them are patterns of waves and fish scales. The style of painting is a bit weird. This
Even Han Zhang and Xu Qing couldn't figure out which dynasty ship this was...
Everyone imagined the glazed windows and carved walls, and they should have had a sense of grandeur before they were damaged.
"Is this definitely a pirate ship?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Are pirates so sophisticated?"
Xu Qing and Han Zhang also touched their chins - it was a bit strange.
"All the soldiers divided into two groups to continue searching the ship. Some people entered the cabin and some people went on the deck.
Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and Ye Zhiqiu walked up with the third master to take a look at the ship building.
Zou Lianglin, Yehuo and Zhao Pu followed the second master down to take a look at the cabin below the deck.
The crew fixed some lanterns and torches on the ship, and soon the whole ship was lit up.
Everyone first took a look inside through the broken glass of the ship building.
I originally thought that there would be bedding, beds and other daily necessities in the ship building, but when I shined a lantern, I saw a large area of golden things...
To be continued...
