Chapter 259 King Lu’s Undersea Tombs(1/2)
Fang Hao and Xiaopang accidentally caught a bronze coffin, which led them to discover this group of tombs under the sea.
It was also discovered that the ships used to build this underwater tomb complex were of Ming Dynasty style.
In other words, the large tomb under the sea is from the Ming Dynasty.
Then this King Lu was the King of Lu during the Ming Dynasty.
The scope has been reduced a lot.
However, during the Ming Dynasty, there were many people who were named Lu kings, and Fang Hao was not sure which Lu king they were.
This can only be determined unless we get more information later.
"Is this the undersea tomb of the princes of the Ming Dynasty?" Captain Han also became interested at this moment.
They observed the situation on the seabed through instruments and equipment. Although they did not see it very clearly, they still had a general understanding of the situation on the seabed.
The scale of this undersea tomb is relatively large. It was built with five ships. After the construction was completed, these large ships sailed here and then sank to form this tomb.
It has a large scale.
This underwater tomb was discovered this time because a torpedo exploded, destroying one of the ships and blowing out the bronze coffin. Only then did Fang Hao and Xiaopang catch it.
These are considered to be related to each other.
"It should be."
Fang Hao nodded.
Judging from these, this large underwater tomb should be the tomb of King Lu of the Ming Dynasty.
As for which King Lu it is, we will have to judge based on other information later.
"I didn't expect that this time I could catch an undersea tomb even if I fished. We are very lucky." Xiaopang was extremely excited.
Catching a large underwater tomb is much more interesting than catching a torpedo, so there is no need to worry at all.
The discovery of this large undersea tomb this time is also due to his contribution.
His mood is naturally even more different.
It's really good luck.
The tomb of a prince is not comparable to ordinary tombs, and its value is huge.
What's more, this is an undersea tomb.
This construction method is worthy of study by many archaeological experts.
Not to mention the things inside.
"Brother Hao, is it possible that this is the tomb of Emperor Jianwen?"
Xiaopang suddenly thought of a possibility.
Because it is said that Emperor Jianwen fled and disappeared after the city was destroyed. There are rumors that he has gone overseas.
That's why Zheng He later went to the West to find traces of Emperor Jianwen.
"No."
Fang Hao knew that this was the tomb of King Lu and had nothing to do with Emperor Jianwen. Naturally, it couldn't be Emperor Jianwen's.
As for the legend of Emperor Jianwen, Fang Hao must have heard something about it, but no one knows whether it is true or false.
"This is just a prince's tomb, not the emperor's tomb."
Emperor Jianwen was an emperor after all. If it were his tomb, it would be even bigger.
Xiaopang nodded and understood a little bit.
"Isn't it difficult to dig this tomb under the sea?"
Then he also thought of a question.
It must be very difficult to excavate an undersea tomb in undersea archeology.
It is more difficult than salvaging a sunken ship.
Archeology is different from salvaging sunken ships. There is a lot of stress involved and a lot of details need to be considered.
Even the structures of these ships are part of their research, and they will be somewhat different from normal ships during construction.
Fortunately, with the development of science and technology, the technical difficulty of salvaging such undersea tombs today should not be a problem.
"It's difficult, but if you really want to carry out archaeological excavation, it's still possible." Fang Hao said.
This time he analyzed and judged from a professional perspective.
While they were discussing this, Captain Han also reported the situation here again.
In any case, the discovery of an undersea tomb, and a large tomb of a prince, is obviously not a small matter.
"What? You caught a bronze coffin and then discovered a prince's tomb under the sea?"
The people above were stunned for a while after hearing the report.
What are you fishing for?
Why is there another bronze coffin this time?
The front foot just reported about the mushroom eggs, and now he is talking about this...undersea tomb.
It’s really a lot of things.
"Yes."
"The bronze coffin is now on our ship." Captain Han replied.
"Do you know exactly whose tomb it is?"
"It's not clear yet."
"Okay, we will organize experts to conduct an assessment immediately." The higher-ups also need to assess this undersea tomb before deciding what to do next.
Should we conduct archaeological excavations, or should we leave this undersea tomb alone?
But no matter which it is, what happens next has little to do with them.
Regardless of whether it is or not, experts will be sent to the scene in the future.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for them to get a reply from above that archaeological experts would be dispatched to the site for a secondary assessment.
Captain Han and the others still need to delay their schedule.
However, fishing for nuclear submarines and mushroom eggs could not be completed at once, so they were not too anxious.
Instead, let’s take advantage of this time to take a good rest.
As for Fang Hao, he actually wants to go down to the sea to see for himself. If he observes it up close, he might get a clearer picture.
It was also because of this tomb that his curiosity was aroused, so he wanted to go down and have a look.
"Brother Hao... we don't need to take this risk."
After Xiaopang knew Fang Hao's thoughts, he was also shocked and felt that there was no need to take this risk.
The risk is simply too great.
Once something happens on the bottom of the sea, the problem will be serious.
The importance of Fang Hao is self-evident now. If something happens to him, the implications will be huge.
And the most important thing is that Captain Han will definitely not agree with his approach.
I dare not let him take such a big risk.
"I know it well."
But Fang Hao still wants to find out what kind of tomb this is.
"Don't worry, I'll go down and take a look. I won't risk going in."
Fang Hao didn't want to go into the tomb to check, he just went down to take a look, and by the way... went to the place where the torpedo exploded before.
After all, there is a big difference between the observations made by the micro-submarine used before and his personal inspection in the sea.
Xiaopang couldn't be persuaded here at all, so he had no choice but to bring in Captain Han.
But when Captain Han came back, Fang Hao had just entered the sea.
After learning that Fang Hao had gone to sea, Captain Han's expression also changed.
We immediately arranged for personnel to go underwater to support and accompany Fang Hao. If there was any danger, we would immediately bring him back.
"Why is this so reckless?"
Captain Han has a headache.
Facing Fang Hao's sudden entry into the water gave him a headache.
But there is nothing he can do. Now he can only try his best to ensure the safety of the other party and never let anything happen to him.
Once something happens to him, the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable.
Including him, he also has to bear a lot of responsibility.
Of course, the most important thing is the follow-up tasks. If something happens to Fang Hao, no one can complete the follow-up tasks.
To be continued...
