Chapter 8 Trident

Uncle Ming was picking his nose and looking straight, and he refused to be ambiguous in the selection of the ship. After all, after going to sea, his life and life must be tied to this ship. Finally, he finally understood: "A few people go to sea to make big moves? I don't think you are ordinary people who come to catch green heads. Ordinary ships cannot meet your requirements at all. To be honest, there is an old ship deep in this water cave, which was modified by the British expedition team back then, but the British people all died inexplicably before they went to sea. Their ship is still there. That ship... I really don't know how to describe it, I can only say it is evil enough."

I heard the strange thing about "martial arts" and I don't know why he used the word "evil" to describe a ship, but to do extraordinary things, it would be very good to choose. Maybe the ship modified by the British salvage team is just right for me, so I decided to go with him to watch it. Anyway, we don't see the real Buddha or burn incense. If there is no suitable ship, I would rather postpone the going out to sea than buy an old horse and put a broken saddle, and make a day of it.

Deep in the water cave under the Coral Temple Sea Cliff, there is a turn. The cliff above the head cracks from it, and a line in the open air. A strange-shaped wooden boat is anchored in the shadows that cannot be shined by light. The ship is very ancient in shape. Its size is a small boat, which can carry more than a dozen people. The hull is mainly made of wooden structure, with a dark and shimmering. All rivets are embedded in the wood and sealed with wooden wedges. The selected material is mixed with a part of the sea willow. It is a tree growing on the bottom of the sea. It will not deform when subjected to moisture and heat, and it can withstand corrosion. It is as new as a new one, very strong, and can withstand the test and baptism of the stormy waves on the sea.

The material of sea willow alone is very rare. Although it looks like a willow tree, it is actually a kind of unmoving marine life that takes tens of thousands of years to form. Every inch is a treasure. Because it is on the verge of extinction, it is rare to see it in modern times. There is a relatively superstitious saying along the coast that if sea willow is used in important components of the hull, it will be blessed by the God of Water.

The style of this ship is ancient and seems to have a history of hundreds of years. Judging from the style, this old ship can be entered into the museum, but why does it look like it is just built? Many places have been modified, so the hull looks very inconsistent everywhere. There are many equipment on the hull that we have never seen before, which is indeed a bit evil.

"Bijie" gave us a detailed introduction. Tens of years ago, the pirates were rampant in this area. This ship was the clutch used by the pirates back then. Later, the nearby pirates were gradually wiped out. The clutch was hidden in this water cave and was discovered by fishermen and converted into a fishing boat. Therefore, the fishing nets, fishing cannons, and fishing guns were all available on the boat.

Later, people from Tanton salvage company in the UK wanted to go into the coral spiral to catch green head, but that area was not that easy to get to the sea area. When the boat was big, it was easy to hit the reefs in the coral spiral, and the boat could not be equipped with too many electronic equipment. So they fell in love with this sea willow ship. After more than half a year of modification, the water line is now covered with copper plate armor, and the original power part has been removed. For the sake of safety, it was converted into four sets of spiral pulp drives with two power switching between steam coal and motor. It was maneuverable and flexible to sail. The side of the ship was equipped with lifeboats and two medium-caliber Indian water god Kimpilu cannons, which can fire four different uses of shells. The ship was equipped with winch and fishing cannons, as well as various equipment necessary for simple salvage operations.

Two huge oval copper balls are hung behind the ship. This thing is called the "diving bell". It is an airtight closed diving tool that can put people in and hang them into the seabed with a chain to detect underwater conditions. Although this method is clumsy and primitive, it has a better protective effect on the dive personnel on the dangerous seabed.

There are also some special equipment from the British in the cabin, including the deep-sea rescuer made in the UK. It is a heavy-duty diving equipment that can dive to about 200 meters under the sea and weighs about 150 kilograms. It can ensure that the divers safely complete their tasks in high pressure, low temperature, hypoxia and dark environments. The metal helmet is equipped with an observation window, which can be connected to the rubber-material diving suit, and has an exhaust valve to maintain stable pressure and can discharge breathing gas outward. This equipment is still in the experimental stage so far and is a trial production type in the renewal period. It has a certain risk factor when used.

Even after such sufficient preparation, the British did not dare to act easily, because the coral spiral is a sea of ​​hell where ghosts and evil spirits appear. The hurricanes are chaotic. Once the boats approach, they will lose their needles and rudders. Moreover, there are hurricanes all year round, and the sky is rarely clear. When the sky is clear, there are mirages that change in the sea, which often lead the ship astray. For the expedition team, all kinds of difficulties can be overcome. Only in the vast sea, the sea water is boundless, and it is not clear from the east, west, south, and north, and only hopes that the sun, moon, and stars will move forward. If you can't even see the sky, the ship will be destined to return sooner or later.

Due to this insurmountable reason, the British salvage team finally gave up the plan. On the eve of their preparation for returning to China, the whole group suddenly died on the ship. The cause of death was very bizarre. The superstitious fishermen said that because the sea willow ship was too yin and too many people died on it. The resentful souls tangled their legs. After contacting the ghost ship for a long time, they were killed by the evil ghosts on the ship. The specific situation of this matter was "mart" and he couldn't explain it clearly. He didn't know in detail. Now the owner of this ship is the local native who helped with the modification work back then. If he wanted this ship, "mart" could help negotiate the price.

It turns out that this ship is a "ghost ship". Many people have died on the ship, which looks unlucky. Moreover, the reason for this is limited to the knowledge of "martial arts". I have never believed these false things, but I have to be careful about this matter, hoping to find an opportunity to find out the truth. Although I would rather believe it than believe it, I would not farm if I heard the crows. Where can I find a more suitable ship than the Hailiu Clippers?
