The river water covering his skin below was cold, and Chen Cao felt waves of coolness in the water. He resisted the pressure and opened his eyes. The river water around him was pitch black. He turned on the flashlight, but the light visibility was still very low.
However, it was enough for him to see everything on the bottom of the boat clearly. Due to being parked for a long time, the bottom of the boat was already covered with thick green water plants, floating like poisonous snakes. Below were iron chains crisscrossing everywhere. At this time, because the mermaid had just arrived
, except for Chen Cao, there is no living thing down here, so the iron chain can be seen clearly.
Chen Cao calmed down, swam hard, swam to the iron chain, shook the iron chain, and found that even after a long period of soaking, the iron chain was still connected to the lower part very familiarly. At this time, Chen Cao
His breath was running out, so he hurriedly swam up, and soon his head popped up. While swimming his limbs, he panted for the air filled with rainwater. Up there, he was waiting expectantly for the Flower Buddha to shout: "Chen
, how about it, can the chain below be moved?"
Chen Cao did not answer. After getting enough oxygen, he plunged in again. This time, he first reached the bottom of the ship and found that the place where the iron chain was connected was covered with many barbs. It is conceivable that the warship was berthed.
The people never intended to sail the ship away, but placed these barbs under the bed instead of on the ship's extension, for fear that someone would unlock the chains from above and drive the warship away. However, under the water
Something was locking the warship. Chen Cao swam downwards with all his strength, but when he felt stuffy, did he still see the place where the chain was locked deep in the river bottom? At this time, there was insufficient oxygen, and he had no choice but to
Didn't swim again.
Huh... Chen Cao finally surfaced. Because he had just dived too deep and the pressure was too great, he had to lean next to the warship, hold on to the ship's extension with his hands, and bring his chest out of the water, breathing heavily.
Hua Buddha asked: "How is it? What's happening next?"
Chen Cao gasped for breath, climbed onto the boat from under the water, took a short rest and said, "I don't know, it's pitch black down there, and the other end of the chain is locked very deep. I don't know what's down there at all."
!”
Hua Buddha frowned and said, "Can't we get the chain out of the boat?"
Chen Cao took off his camouflage uniform, wrung out the water on his clothes and said: "There are hundreds of chains locked below. Due to time constraints, we simply cannot finish them all. You know, underwater operations cannot be done unless there are specialized personnel.
Tools, otherwise, there is no way to cut off one!"
When Hua Buddha heard this, he didn't mean to blame him. He patted Chen Cao on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, it's too dangerous to continue like this. Let's stay here for a while. We will always find a way!"
Chen Cao looked at Hua Buddha with doubts in his eyes. Hua Buddha laughed: "Chen, don't look at me with that questioning look. I'm thinking about myself. I don't think you can lie. I can't."
I don’t want you to become the food of piranhas before the chain is finished. When the time comes, I will lead a group of rookies to survive on this boat. You know, I will not do this. Moreover, with a strong person like you
My partner, without you, my chances of survival will drop by who knows how many percentage points, but I can still settle this account!"
Chen Cao instantly said with a sly look in his eyes: "Then, I hope we can have a happy cooperation!"
Stannie had no intention of listening to the two of them talking, but instead glanced at the box he had just found. Chen Cao seemed to think of the wooden box that Stannie had picked up from somewhere. His heart moved and he looked at it.
Stannie said: "Stanney, look at what's in this box. It might be a diving suit!"
After hearing what Chen Cao said, Stannie agreed very readily. Just when he was about to get the box, Hua Buddha said at this moment: "I don't think so, maybe it's a biological weapon!"
Hearing what Hua Buddha said, Stannie shivered, and the hand that was originally pressing on the box immediately retracted, and he stared at Chen Cao and Hua Buddha in a daze.
Lu Tianming interrupted in a low voice: "What's inside is nothing but a box containing explosives on the ship!"
"What?" Hua Buddha and Chen Cao looked at Lu Tianming at the same time, their eyes full of shock. Hua Buddha said seriously: "Lao Lu, this is not a joke. If you mislead us because of your words and deeds, I will let you die.
It will be very miserable, I promise!”
Seeing the Hua Buddha looking at him with sharp eyes, the murderous aura in his eyes seemed to penetrate his frail self. Lu Tianming trembled all over, and for a moment he was afraid to speak.
"Okay, Flower Buddha, don't be so mean all the time. If you have something to say, say it nicely!" Chen Cao finished speaking to the Flower Buddha, then looked at Lu Tianming, his voice became much softer: "Tell me what you think!"
Stannie was trembling before he could stand up from his original half-crouching position, looked at the box, took a few steps back as if he had seen a ghost, and said: "Boss, I don't think I have any other opinions. Put this box away."
If you throw it into the water, it might not be an explosive, but a biological and chemical weapon!"
Chen Cao frowned and looked at Stannie and said, "Shut up, Stannie!"
Hearing Chen Cao's scolding, Stannie immediately covered his mouth.
After hearing Chen Cao's words, Lu Tianming continued: "This box, based on my many years of experience in the Mainz Navy, should be a box for explosives. You know, I often perform maintenance in the warehouse of warships.
I am extremely sensitive to the smell of the ammunition carried by this kind of ship!" Lu Tianming finished speaking in one breath, paused, touched the box with his hand, pinched it with his fingers, and said, "Look, this is
The grease on the wooden box is special oil for preserving ammunition!"
When Chen Cao heard Lu Tianming's words, he didn't dare to act rashly. Instead, he imitated Lu Tianming's example, squatted down, and wiped a handful on the box. Sure enough, there was a smooth feeling. Through the light of the flashlight, he saw that there was something on his finger.
Layers of bright and clear oil, he couldn't help but said to Stannie: "Stannie, where did this box come from? Why didn't Hua Buddha and I search for it when we came down?"
Looking at Chen Cao's righteous question, Stannie trembled all over and stammered quickly: "No, it's nothing. Just now, I sneaked in while you were looking at the captured monster.
I went to another room and saw nothing in the dark empty room. When I was about to exit, I walked to the corridor and saw a floating object, so I fished it up. When I fished it up, I discovered that it was
There was a box connected to a chain, but you know, I wasn’t sure what was in the box, so I didn’t dare to open it randomly, so I broke the chain and dragged it over!”
Hua Buddha looked at the box connected to the chain and said, "Where is the chain connected to?"
Stannie was not only afraid of Chen Cao, but he was even more afraid of Hua Buddha. Once, because the raft was overweight, Hua Buddha dared to cold-bloodedly kick all of them off the boat and throw them to the inhumane natives. Therefore, Stannie
He didn't dare to neglect: "Yes, it should be on the boat!"
