C1100 Collapse
C1100 Collapse
Yang Bo was a little astonished. He looked in the direction that Guo Ming was pointing and saw a hole on the left side of the sunken boat. He immediately understood that this should be the place where Guo Ming and the rest had entered from.
As he was in the ocean, there was still some sunlight below, so he was able to see everything clearly. Yang Bo walked forward a few steps, then casually turned on the searchlight above his head and walked towards the sunken boat.
The inside of the sunken boat was pitch black, but this couldn't obstruct Yang Bo's line of sight. He carefully sized up the interior of the boat, and saw that there was a large amount of sand inside, and there were even some aquatic plants inside. Some fish swam past, and all the historical traces were buried.
Yang Bo could see that the sand in the cabin had traces of being dug, and there were also some broken pieces of wood that were floating at the top of the cabin. This should have been what Zhang Xianghee and the others were doing previously.
Yang Bo did not care about all this. He walked around the boat, and realised that the sunken boat was already on the verge of collapse after being washed by the ocean water, he thought that there might be more treasures inside, but now, it seemed like there were none.
After walking around, Yang Bo waved towards Guo Ming, signalling him to return. Guo Ming nodded, and walked out.
The sunken boat was not big in the first place, and the cabin was even smaller. After the two of them stepped on it, the water in the cabin became turbid, and luckily, Yang Bo could see it clearly.
Guo Ming waited for Yang Bo's command. Yang Bo waved his hand, signalling him to leave, but he did not expect Guo Ming to open his eyes wide, and point behind him.
Yang Bo was shocked, he turned around and looked at the back, and was immediately stunned, because the sunken boat could no longer hold on, and was falling towards the two of them!
Yang Bo exerted more strength in his legs and with a sudden stomp on the ground, he pushed Guo Ming and slid to the side!
Guo Ming did not seem to be able to react, and immediately choked on a mouthful of water, but he reacted quickly, and immediately shut his mouth, his face showing pain and distortions.
Yang Bo pushed Guo Ming to the side and dodged the sunken boat. He raised his head and saw Guo Ming's face warp, he was shocked, and immediately pulled Guo Ming and swam up to the surface of the sea.
When they were almost at the ocean's surface, Yang Bo looked down and saw a layer of filth beneath his feet.
"Crash!" After he said that, Yang Bo brought Guo Ming to the surface of the sea, where he panted heavily.
Yang Bo had also pulled out his mouth for air, so he could hear the Fat Liu shouting, "Why did you guys run away, we're right behind you!"
Yang Bo did not pull Guo Ming away. He let him rest for a while before the two of them got on the boat.
Zhang Xianghee looked at Guo Ming's miserable state, "What happened? You are so good at swimming, how can you be so tired? "
Guo Ming looked up and laughed bitterly: "Mr Yang's swimming ability is much better than mine, I almost lost my life inside the sunken boat!"
Zhang Xianghee was stunned at first, but then shouted angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, what exactly happened?"
Yang Bo had no choice but to say: "The sunken boat suddenly collapsed, we were almost pressed on top of it, luckily we reacted a little faster and dodged it."
Hua Qingyun was standing behind Yang Bo, and upon hearing his words, she immediately pulled on his arm, afraid that he would fall down.
Fat Liu opened his eyes wide, "It collapsed? Didn't I just go to the bottom of the sea in vain to have a look at the situation? "
Zhang Xianghee glanced at the surface of the sea and pointed to the surface, "It's indeed muddy inside, there is sand floating up here. However, the sand floating up is faster and drifting away is faster, the sea water is flowing, let's wait for half an hour and then go down and check the situation."
Fat Liu heaved a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I thought I couldn't go down there anymore."
Finished, Fat Liu looked at Yang Bo, "Have you noticed anything?"
Yang Bo shook his head, "There's nothing inside the sunken ship. It's been too long, at least six to seven hundred years of history, no matter how many items there are, they will all rot.
"How big is the hull?" The Fat Liu continued to ask.
Yang Bo was startled, he sized up the boat they were on, "It's about the same as this boat!"
"That's a small boat. It should at least be a dozen meters long!" Fat Liu said.
Yang Bo was a little shocked, in his eyes, the Song Dynasty s were very developed, but the shipping system was not as good, "Small boat? Isn't it supposed to be a big ship? "
The Fat Liu shook his head, "You don't understand the first ship in the Southern Ocean?"
Yang Bo read through some of the information, but he did not have much understanding towards the boat, he shook his head and replied, "I don't know, but my guess is, it should only be twenty meters long."
"Thirty meters long and ten meters wide! At that time, this was already the world's most advanced shipbuilding technology! " Fat Liu said, "The Song Dynasty shipbuilding industry is very developed, at that time the Emperor Huizong sent two ships to send an envoy to Gao Li, and those two thousand ton giant ships were used by Gao Li to overthrow the country!"
Hua Qingyun stood at the side, covered her mouth and laughed: "A thousand tons of giant ship already has such an effect. If the aircraft carrier were to go to the Song Dynasty, wouldn't that frighten them?"
Fat Liu laughed: "There is no comparison at all right? But, I just want to say one thing. This ship is not big."
"So what you're saying is that this ship, at that time, the route she was responsible for, was probably not a long distance one. It was most likely a route to a pirate country or to Gori?" Yang Bo said.
Fat Liu shook his head, "I'm not sure either. However, from Qiongzhou to the Dijing, the sea route is probably faster than the road on the ground."
They sat on the boat and chatted, half an hour quickly went by, Yang Bo looked at the time, "I'll go down again, if there are still no discoveries, let's leave."
"I'll follow you down." Fat Liu said.
Yang Bo shook his head, "You should stay, I will go there alone."
"No, Mr Yang, I'll go with you!" Zhang Xianghee said.
Yang Bo shook his head and pointed at Guo Ming, "If you guys don't believe me, you can ask Guo Ming, and you ask him, how is my water flow?"
Everyone looked at Guo Ming, who nodded immediately: "Mr Yang's water flow is very good, much better than me."
Yang Bo laughed, donned his swimsuit again and put on his mirror, "Alright, I'll go down to take a look, you guys can relax, it's fine."
Yang Bo waved his hand at the crowd, and then went down. Zhang Xianghee was not at ease, he waited for Yang Bo to go down for a while, and then followed him.
At this time, the place where the boat had sunk had already calmed down and the sand brought by the ship had settled down. Yang Bo stood at the side of the ship and looked around at the situation in the sea and couldn't help but frown, because there were no reefs in a radius of a few miles.
