The silhouette of a black shadow appeared, and everyone was shocked.
“What’s That?”
The netizens couldn’t help but blurt out, exclaiming in surprise.
The scene at this moment was out of everyone’s expectations.
In the live broadcast, a huge creature was lying dormant at the bottom of the sea. Its huge body was like a dead whale, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that the entire edge was distinct, clearly like a large ship.
“Is that a ship? !”
“There’s a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea!”
“Oh my God! What else can abbey Dean Ning see in the live broadcast?”
The bullet messages flooded in.
At this moment, Ning Fei also said,
“It seems that there’s a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea ahead!”
“Since ancient times, the sea has swallowed countless ships. However, the sea area is too big and the bottom of the sea is too deep. Many ships are unable to salvage and search for it.”
“For example, the Titanic sank more than 3,700 meters into the ocean, making it difficult to find the remains of ships.”
“Moreover, ships will quickly rot in the ocean, and all kinds of underwater creatures will live on them.”
“This is China’s South China Sea, so it’s really strange that there’s such a big ship.”
Ning Fei continued to approach.
The closer he got, the more shocked the netizens became.
This was because this ship was really huge.
The entire ship was like a small mountain!
At the same time, the bullet comments exploded once again, and Ning Fei’s temperature rose once again.
The Chinese media and newspapers had started writing articles and hydrology the moment Ning Fei discovered the sunken ship, hoping to send out this explosive news.
“What a big ship. It looks like the mast has been rotted beyond recognition. All That’s left is this huge hull!”
Ning Fei said again.
The netizens became more and more curious. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the live broadcast screen.
“Abbey Dean Ning, when did this sunken ship sink?”
“Such a big sunken ship. Could it have been left behind during the war years ago?”
[ what a terrifying feeling. ]
[ oh my God, is there any news about the cruise ship’s accident in the South China Sea? ]
[ could there be treasure inside the ship? Just like in pirate movies, there are boxes of gold and silver treasures. ]
[ maybe there really is! ]
All kinds of bullet messages came in one after another.
The netizens knew: Abbey Dean Ning, I’m afraid it will be on the hot searches and news again!
“The overall shape of this ship is smooth and the structure is very solid. Judging from its size, it should be a ship from the Ming dynasty. Moreover, it is very likely a treasure ship from Zheng He’s voyage to the Western Ocean.”
“According to the records in the Ming history and the biography of Zheng He, Zheng He had a total of 63 treasure ships when he was sailing. The largest ship was 444 feet long and 180 feet wide.”
“When converted to the present, it is 151.18 meters long and 6.16 meters wide. It was the largest ship in the world at that time.”
“Ming history military records mentioned: ‘The Treasure ship was as tall as a tower, low-pointed and wide, and could accommodate a thousand people.’its posture was majestic and unrivaled. Just the anchor alone weighed several thousand pounds.”
Ning Fei observed the structure of the sunken ship and said leisurely.
The netizens all showed an expression of not knowing what was going on.
Although they did not understand, they still felt that it was amazing.
Abbey Dean Ning was amazing, and so was this boat.
[ I’m a graduate student in history. I’ve only studied Zheng He’s history of going to the western ocean, but I’ve never seen it with my own eyes. I really have to thank Abbey Dean Ning! ]
[ this is indeed a wooden boat from the Ming dynasty. The wood shipbuilding technology of this era is mature, and China is undoubtedly the number one in the world. Later on, during the first Industrial Revolution, steam boats appeared in foreign countries, and the Qing dynasty was no match for others. ]
[ at that time, could such a large boat be built without engines or gasoline? ]
[ the ancients were really amazing! ]
[ it’s too unbelievable, they actually found a treasure boat from Zheng He’s journey to the Western Ocean in the deep sea? ]
[ indeed, magical things happen in places that humans can not reach! ]
The sinking of the submarine aroused the enthusiasm of the netizens, and everyone was very excited.
From the live broadcast lens, a small submarine that was emitting light seemed small in front of the shadow of a huge sunken ship.
At this moment, Ning Fei was like a small fish swimming toward a big whale. The contrast in size gave people a strong sense of visual pressure.
“Zheng He went to the western ocean with five types of ships.”
“The first type is a treasure ship, the most magnificent!”
“The second type is a horse ship, 370 feet long and 150 feet wide, slightly smaller.”
“The third type is a grain ship, 280 feet long and 120 feet wide, used to store grain.”
“The fourth type is a ship, and the fifth type is a warship.”
“The division of labor of ships is clear. Some are used to carry cargo, some are used to transport grain, some are used to live, and some are used to fight. The division of labor is meticulous.”
“It’s just that I don’t know if this ship sank when it went or when it came back.”
Ning Fei drove the submarine around the sunken ship and observed it.
Looking carefully, one could see that the sunken ship had been decomposed beyond recognition. There were many signs of decay on the wood of the ship’s hull, and it was piled up with all kinds of marine fungi.
At this moment, the place where the submarine’s light swept past changed again.
Ning Fei looked at the ship’s hull and realized that it was pitch black under the light.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that there was a huge hole in the hull of the sunken ship!
The diameter of the hole was about five to six meters. It was very large, and it could allow the submarine to easily enter.
What was inside the ship?
This was the question that everyone was puzzled about.
Ning Fei’s mission was to look for a bright pearl on the sunken ship. Naturally, he had to go in.
[ there’s a big hole there! ]
[ you can actually go in! ]
[ the bottom should be the position of the ship’s body. A lot of goods are stored inside. ]
[ isn’t it too dangerous? ]
Everyone was discussing.
However, at this moment, Ning Fei had already controlled the submarine and slowly drove it into the big hole on the side of the ship.
The inside of the ship was even darker.
Where the lights swept past, one could see many pillars supporting the ship. These pillars were made of the best giant wood. After so many years of corrosion in the sea, they were still as strong as before.
Ning Fei controlled the submarine and looked underwater.
One could see that the ship had been piled up with mud from the bottom of the sea. It looked no different from the outside.
At this time, Ning Fei shone the light in the corner again.
In the corner, a few jars that looked like vases appeared in front of everyone.
The netizens hurriedly widened their eyes, wanting to see what it was.
Ning Fei told everyone:
“It’s porcelain. When Zheng He went to the western ocean, he brought porcelain and silk with him. On one hand, his purpose was to spread the prestige of the country, but in reality, it was to exchange for overseas jewelry, exotic beasts, and other things for the entertainment of the Royal Family.”
“The silk has long rotted in the sea, and only porcelain can be preserved for such a long time.”
“Ming dynasty porcelain is very valuable.”
“But I can’t leave the submarine. It’s 1,000 meters under the sea now, and the pressure is very terrifying. Unless one has a diving suit of the level of a spacesuit, no one can go out of this place.”
Hearing Ning Fei’s words, everyone felt a little regretful.
“What a pity. Looking at so many antiques, there’s no way to get them back.”
“Submarines can go deep into the ocean, but humans can’t.”
“That’s right, unless there are some mechanical tools that can be used to control the machine to take them.”
“There’s no need for that, but the Ming dynasty porcelain shouldn’t be too expensive.”
“These are all Zheng He’s porcelain from the western seas. Collecting antiques doesn’t have to depend on the age, but also the history of the items. With this title, these porcelain are worth a lot!”
“Doesn’t that mean that Abbey Dean Ning can’t get his hands on these tens of millions of antiques?”
“Yes, no one can!”
“Next time you drive a submarine, just bring a grabbing device.”
“Abbey Dean Ning, where are the coordinates? I’ll hire a diving team. I think this will be profitable.”
After seeing the porcelain, everyone became even more enthusiastic.
After all, it was an antique from Zheng He’s time in the western ocean. Its value was definitely not low.
In fact, Ning Fei’s submarine had a mechanical arm that could be controlled. It could store the porcelain in a storage space behind the submarine.
However, Ning Fei did not tell everyone, and he did not want to touch the antiques.
According to Chapter 1, Article 5, of the protection of cultural relics law, all cultural relics in China’s underground, internal waters, and territorial waters belonged to the state.
Even if he controlled the robotic arm to collect antiques, they would still belong to the state. He might as well not say that he had the ability to collect them, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.
What Ning Fei needed to do now was to find the mission requirement, the Enlightenment Pearl.
He continued to move forward.
However, what happened next was something that no one had expected.
Ning Fei’s submarine shone upwards. The netizens saw that on the inner beam of the sunken ship, a huge octopus that was nearly ten meters long had appeared!
The light could only shine on half of its body, not even its full appearance could be seen.
Ning Fei’s gaze changed, and he also shouted in a low voice,
“Oh no, it’s a giant squid!”
