Afterwards, we bandaged the injured area and gave Shunzi some new medicine. There were quite a lot of medicines on the boat. My calf was slightly injured and I also took some medicine. There was enough food in the fishing boat. We
Then I had another hearty meal, and I was finally out of the sea of hunger.
Although this fishing boat is not as big as ours, it is still equipped with quite a lot of items. There is plenty of fresh water and food. Mr. Mai didn't seem to be in a hurry. He asked me to take a rest first and set off later. The four of us were resting.
Had a wonderful sleep in the cabin.
I slept from morning to night. When I got up, there was no one in the rest cabin. I looked out the window and saw that it was getting dark again. I stretched my muscles and bones. I had a great sleep.
ah.
I got up, put on my clothes and walked out of the lounge. Shunzi and Jiao Ba were on the deck. When they saw me coming, Jiao Ba waved his hand and said, "Hello, good morning, brother."
I walked over with a smile and said, "It's damn dark and it's still early." Then I patted Shunzi on the arm and said, "You're so seriously injured, why do you come out to blow the sea breeze? Be careful not to aggravate the injury.
"
Shunzi grinned and said, "It's okay, brother Yi, he's much better already."
Jiao Ba said next to him, "Shunzi is in good health. Don't worry, Brother Yi, he won't die just yet."
"Fuck you uncle, shut your mouth." Shunzi laughed and scolded him.
Jiao Ba didn't get angry, but laughed. It seems that after this accident, the relationship between the two people has deepened a lot. I am also very happy to see it. This is how it should be. We are all brothers when we go to sea.
We should take care of each other.
I looked around and asked casually, "Why are you two alone, where is Mr. Mai?"
Jiao Batou Yiniu said, "Well, the operation is the steering."
"You two stay here while I go find Mr. Mai." After I finished speaking, I turned around and walked toward the operating room.
Mr. Mai was driving the fishing boat in the operation room. I walked over and said, "Old Mai, you are tired. Do you want to take a rest?"
Mr. Mai turned to look at me and said, "It's okay. I've long been used to it. I used to be at the helm for several months when I went to sea."
"Aren't we still here? We have to help you share some of the burden." I'm telling the truth. This old guy is also a human being. Don't collapse from exhaustion.
"I really want you to help me, but who of you knows how to read the route?" Mr. Mai felt a little helpless when he said this.
I looked a little embarrassed, it was true, this was not driving, this vast place had to be able to read the route. I suddenly wanted to chat with him, so I simply asked him, "Mr. Mai, I miss you with your status."
Professor, you should not be short of money to spend, right? Then why did you go to sea?"
Mr. Mai looked at me with ulterior motives and asked, "Then why do you think I went to sea?"
"How do I know? If I wanted to know, I wouldn't have asked you." This old guy is talking nonsense. If I wanted to know, I wouldn't have asked you.
Mai Lao smiled and said, "Don't think of me as so noble. I am also a common person. Although part of it is for scientific research, from my personal point of view, I am also here for money. In this world, who can
Do you feel like having too much money bites your hand? You think so?"
This old guy was very direct, "Well, yes, we are all common people, Mr. Mai, how long will it take for us to reach the location of the sunken ship?" This is the question that concerns me the most, and I don't bother to ask who is at the helm.
"At this rate, it will be over in a few hours. What? Are you in a hurry?" Mr. Mai glanced at me with a smile on his lips. The old guy's eyes were always so blurred and unpredictable.
I raised my eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, you can find it after searching, and it won't take more than an hour and a half. Then I will go back first, you are always tired."
"Well, let's go back and rest. When we find a place, we will be busy." Mr. Mai patted me on the shoulder and said.
I smiled and nodded, turned around and left the operation room and walked to the deck. On the deck, Jiaoba was alone smoking a cigarette and looking at the wind. Shunzi was no longer there. I walked next to him and took it from his hand.
He took the cigarette, took a few deep puffs and said, "Damn, it's comfortable. Why are you alone? Where's Shunzi?"
Jiao Ba lit up another cigarette and said, "He went to eat."
"Why don't you go? What are you doing here?" I have rarely seen Jiao Ba be so calm. He could actually smoke alone and look at the dark sea. This is a bit inconsistent with his character.
Jiao Ba sighed and said, "Hey~~ It's nothing. I just feel that I encountered too many things this time I went to sea, one after another. After doing it for so long, we haven't found the real Ming Dynasty shipwreck, and now it's been destroyed by our own people.
Throw this away. If you think about it carefully, it’s really a piece of shit.”
I chuckled and said, "You tried everything possible to come here. If you didn't say you could make a lot of money by going overseas, how could Shunzi and I come?"
Jiao Ba said with an apology on his face, "Brother Yi, I'm so sorry. I didn't know it would be like this. It almost caused you and Shunzi to die several times. If I knew it could be so dangerous, I wouldn't say anything."
I'm really sorry for letting you two go to sea."
I looked at Jiao Ba. He was serious. Not only was his face full of apologies, his eyes were also a little red. I put my arm around his shoulders and said, "Forget it, didn't you almost lose your life? We are brothers.
Don't say those useless words. Now that it's like this, we have to fight to the end. If we don't figure out the secret of the man in black and this navigation chart, I really won't go back."
Jiao Ba said with a smile, "Well, we must get to the bottom of the matter. By the way, brother Yi, let me show you something." As he spoke, he took out a small, shiny thing from his clothes with a sly look.
After taking it out, I looked around, fearing that someone would know.
When I saw this thing, my eyes suddenly lit up, "Did you get this from the bearded man?"
"Well, that's it. This is what he pried from the mouth of the female corpse." Jiao Ba's face was full of excitement and pride, and he smiled wickedly, as if he had found the answer.
I waved my hand and said, "Let's go over there and talk."
The two of us walked from the deck to a hidden place next to the fishing boat. I took it and looked at it carefully, but after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't figure out what it was. The only thing I was sure of was that it was definitely
Made of pure gold, this thing can be about the size of a walnut, somewhat similar to a small rhombus, but not quite a rhombus. There is a bar at the back, just at the bottom of one side of the rhombus.
"What the hell is this thing? Doesn't it look like anything?" I really didn't see this thing, but the female corpse actually had this thing hidden in her mouth.
Jiao Ba shook his head and said, "I don't quite understand. I looked at it for a long time, but nothing came out. It stands to reason that if it is pure gold, there is no reason for her to put it in her mouth. There must be some secret to this thing."
.”
My mind was spinning, and after thinking about it carefully, I said, "Well, I think so too. If you are really a relative of the emperor, who would care about this little gold? What on earth is this?" The two of us fell into confusion, and I
I remember clearly that the bearded man's eyes lit up when he saw this thing. It couldn't be just because it was made of gold.
Jiao Ba Fang seemed to be talking to himself, "Could it be some kind of message? It's like that half piece of jade pendant has some kind of code."
Password? I thought about it carefully and seemed to understand something. I suddenly said, "Yes, I just remembered when you said the password. Could it be something similar to a key, or some kind of information hidden somewhere?"
Under what conditions can it be effective?”
Jiao Ba rolled his eyes, looked at me and said, "It's possible, but this is just a guess between you and me. I won't know what it is until we get back to our fishing boat."
"Go back to the fishing boat? What do you mean?" I didn't understand what Jiao Ba said.
Jiao Ba said in a low voice, "I brought over a diary belonging to our old man. There are some weird things recorded in it. Let me see if I can find some clues there."
I nodded and said, "Well, it seems that's the only way it can be, but I'm sure this thing is definitely not simple."......
