Chapter 206 Emperor Sword, Son of Destiny

After a brief hesitation, Lin Chen approached the sunken ship.

Even though it’s not the one you’re looking for, it’s already here, so you still need to take a look at the situation.

Then someone from the Cultural Relics Bureau came over to explain the situation.

The ship lay on the bottom of the sea, covered with thick mud and only part of it was exposed. The hull was made of metal and had several chimney-like things.

It looks similar to the old steamships in Western movies and TV shows.

There are many plants growing on the soil.

You can see a lot of fish moving around the hull.

As Lin Chen approached, many fish were frightened and scattered around.

"It's quite a lot after all."

"Could he be reselling cultural relics?"

Before entering the hull, Lin Chen was attracted by the scattered things outside.

He saw many cultural relics, from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, from every dynasty.

Porcelain is the most abundant, and there are also many statues and jewelry. There are quite a lot of varieties.

Obviously, it is not as simple as an ordinary merchant ship.

"Qing Dynasty!"

Lin Chen muttered, and many memories emerged.

Steamboats appeared very late.

Judging from the time point, the sunken ship probably sank to the bottom of the sea when the West plundered the Dragon Kingdom's wealth in the past.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen did not continue swimming towards the hull, but walked around the sunken ship to inspect the scattered cultural relics.

Many of them are damaged.

Many of them were severely rusted after being soaked in sea water.

……

"What is this ship for? How come there are so many cultural relics?"

Seeing the precious cultural relics sunk on the seabed in the picture, Wang Jianbin was a little amazed and a little confused.

There are hundreds of pieces scattered outside alone, and there must be an astronomical number inside the cabin.

There are indeed many cultural relics in the Dragon Kingdom, but you can't just pick up stones on the roadside.

So many cultural relics must not have been collected through formal channels.

"Plunder!"

These two words came to Wang Jianbin's mind. Apart from robbery, he could not think of any other way to collect so many cultural relics.

Those things are worth a lot of money if you take them out.

If you are not strong, who can have so much money to purchase so many cultural relics?

Zhou Haoyu was silent on the side. He and Wang Jianbin had similar thoughts. These things on the ship must not have been obtained through formal channels.

Thinking of that period of history, he couldn't help but feel heavy.

Although there is no eternal dynasty, he still hopes that those things that happened back then will not happen again in the Dragon Kingdom.

The audience in the live broadcast room was indignant.

"Dear me, are you robbing the museum? There are so many cultural relics?"

“You don’t even have to think about it, you already know what’s going on.”

"Damn it, those Sun Tzu gang did all kinds of bad things in our country back then. There was nothing they couldn't do, including burning, killing, looting and looting!"

"They're just a bunch of robbers. They're just getting rich behind the scenes. They're wearing human skins and pretending to be human beings. In the end, they're not the same bad things they were before."

"As we all know, a certain museum belongs to someone else."

……

A large number of Dragon Kingdom cultural relics and steam ships.

It’s hard not to be connected with that period of history.

To this day, many cultural relics lost abroad are still on display in museums in some countries.

Seeing this scene, many viewers in the live broadcast room couldn't help but curse. At the same time, they were thankful that the cultural relics in the picture were carried on the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, they don't know when they would be able to get them back.

Soon, the incident of the shipwreck was posted online by some people in the live broadcast room, which attracted a lot of attention.

"Didn't you say battleship? Why did it become a cargo ship?"

"I'm a little confused as to what kind of ship it is."

"It's not the same ship. Lin Chen has found one."

"There are both battleships and cargo ships, Lin Chen... you know!"

The story of the battleship spread on the Internet, so when they learned about the sinking, many netizens were confused. It was only after some people who knew the situation explained what was going on that they finally understood what was going on.

"Six! As expected of Bugchen, I actually found an ancient sunken ship while looking for a battleship. No one else can!"

"Some people are afraid that they won't be able to sit still. There are so many people outside, but what about the inside of the cabin?"

"This thing belongs to us, but I want to see who can't sit still."

"Now is not the case a hundred years ago. If you dare to jump out, you will die directly."

……

The appearance of the sunken ship aroused the curiosity of a large number of netizens, and many people flocked to Lin Chen's live broadcast room, looking forward to subsequent discoveries.

Not only domestically, the shipwreck also attracted a lot of attention abroad.

"This is not your Dragon Kingdom's ship. You should find the original owner of the ship and return the things to them."

"Private property is inviolable, and you should not take other people's things."

"That's our cultural relic. When did it become someone else's?"

"Haha, I want to see who dares to come out and admit it."

"Why don't you say you want to return other people's things when you salvage them? Is it wrong for us to take back our own things? Double standards are really fun."

……

As the relevant information was released to the Internet, some people immediately became unable to sit still and jumped out to demand that the country hand over the sunken ship.

This kind of remarks was criticized by the people of Longguo.

The two sides had a fierce quarrel online.

……

Lin Chen didn't know how much of a sensation his discovery of the sunken ship caused on the Internet. After some searching, his eyes were attracted by something.

"That's..."

Lin Chen stared at a certain area. A bronze object was stuck on the ground. It looked like a sword from the outside.

There is moss growing on it, and you can’t tell there is a bronze vessel unless you look carefully.

Bronze wares are cultural relics that are prohibited from trading.

Quantity is extremely scarce.

Even the bronzes imitated by later generations are of high value.

He swam over, dug out the bronze vessel from the ground, and cleaned it carefully.

Lin Chen's intuition was correct, it was indeed a bronze sword.

It is over one meter long, has beautiful patterns and is decorated with colorful beads. The sword is engraved with two Qin seals. It looks very extraordinary.

Despite being immersed in the seabed for many years.

There is still no rust on the sword body, and little bits of cold light condense on the blade, giving people an extremely sharp feeling.

You can tell it is a sword at first glance.

After the initial cleaning, Lin Chen's movements froze instantly.

"Red Sky Sword."

When he saw the system prompt, he almost dropped the bronze sword to the ground in excitement.

The story of Liu Bang's uprising by killing the White Snake is widely circulated in China.

Among them, the sword used by Liu Bang is the Chixiao Sword.

Also known as the "Sword of the Imperial Way" in history, it is a symbol of the Imperial Way.

Its status among famous swords is higher than that of Tai'a sword.

This sword has disappeared for many years, and whether it actually exists is a mystery.

Lin Chen didn't expect that he would find this sword under such circumstances.

"Could it be the treasure in the palace?"

Treasures of the level of the Scarlet Sky Sword are not something ordinary people can possess. Lin Chen couldn't help but suspect that the treasures on this ship were things that were looted from the palace.

Of course, this is just his guess.

No one stipulates that the Red Sky Sword will not be collected by the public.

Lin Chen thought for a while and inserted the Chixiao Sword back.
