Chapter 90 The Big Wooden Box

This time the photo was much more relaxed than before. After the cabin door was opened, there was no strong cold current rushing out. We swam into the cabin one after another. Mai Lao came in last, but after entering, I discovered a problem.

Originally, the sea water here was supposed to be very mild, but now it has become even colder than outside. It was so cold that I shivered all over.

The aisle of the cabin was still extremely dark. We turned on all the lights, hoping that there wouldn’t be any flashing lights or ghosts this time. I first observed the cabin door that we had inspected before.

It's still open, so it seems like nothing unexpected happened.

Mr. Mai gestured to everyone, 'Everyone should spread out and work separately. Survey every cabin as soon as possible. Everyone pays attention to safety.'

This time, in order to save time, we had to take risks. All seven of us spread out. In my words, this was a solo operation. I took the light and swam towards the innermost cabin.

I was highly concentrated. In this dark corridor with no one around me, I inevitably felt a little nervous.

I held the speargun tightly in my hand and fired the lights everywhere, ready to deal with emergencies anytime and anywhere. After marching for a short time, I arrived at the last cabin on the first floor, from the cabin door to the end of the cabin.

, I did a rough calculation and found that there were more than a dozen cabins on my left side alone. If both sides were added up, there would be at least nearly thirty. This ghost shipwreck is really damn big.

I looked at it with a light, and finally the hatch was still tightly closed. There were still some signs of damage on the hatch, one by one, and it was covered with messy things. It looked very uncomfortable.

Everyone else should have entered the cabin now, and the passage seemed very quiet, so quiet that it made people tremble in their hearts.

There was no time to waste time now. I stepped forward and grabbed the hatch. I pushed back hard. Maybe it was because the hull had sunk for too long. I pulled the wooden hatch down directly. If it hadn't been for this

The buoyancy under water is so great that I had to be thrown over and flipped over.

I threw away the broken hatch in my hand and waited at the door for a while. After making sure there was no danger, I swam in with a light. This cabin was no different from the two cabins I checked before.

There was a big difference. There were still broken sacks all over the cabin, and corroded grain scattered on the ground. I opened a few sacks in succession, and they still contained grain, with nothing in them. I walked around in the cabin, feeling

Suddenly I felt quite depressed.

Originally, I was still hoping that I could find some clues to solve the mystery of all this, but now it seems that all this was in vain. It seems that this is a useless granary ship.

Ah, but according to the instructions on the nautical chart, you shouldn't. Even if there are no unique treasures, you won't be looking for a granary ship that has sunk at the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years, right? What's the point of this?

No, there should be some valuable things in such a big shipwreck. It may be because we are looking in the wrong place. There is plenty of time now. I have to move on to the next cabin. No matter what, the whole ship must be turned over.

Just do it all over.

Just when I was about to exit the cabin, the light accidentally illuminated something next to the cabin door. I quickly moved the light back. The thing was very big. I swam over and saw that it was actually a large wooden box, which happened to be placed in the cabin.

There is a very inconspicuous place on the right side of the cabin door. This location is not easy to see after entering the door. If I had been more careless, I might not have discovered it.

This wooden box is large and boxy, and it's okay to put one or two people in it. However, I can't tell what the box is specifically for, because it has been soaked in water for so many years, and it's hard to tell.

I put the speargun aside and cleaned around the box with my hands.

Then with the help of lighting, I could see a little more clearly. The appearance of this large wooden box was dark red, and there were patterns of a group of horses carved on the top of the box. The patterns of this group of horses were black, but this horse

The appearance of the horse is very strange. There are many thorns carved on the horse's head, and its limbs are still very small. It looks very strange and special.

There are some simple patterns in other places. There are a pair of metal armrests on both sides of the box, which are semi-circular armrests. There are also metal buckles on the front of the wooden box. This should be where the lock is placed. Judging from the appearance, it looks like

It's the kind of big box that was used to hold silver ingots in ancient times.

I looked carefully again and saw that the metal buckle was slightly damaged. I looked down with a light. Sure enough, there was a big lock on the ground next to the wooden box. I picked it up and took a look. The lock

The head must weigh at least three kilograms, and the lock is slightly deformed. The lock must have been pried open. Who did it? Is it someone from this ship? Or, someone has been there before us.

Is this shipwrecked?

I held the lock in my hand and thought about it. Could it be that we are not the first people to discover this sunken ship? It stands to reason that Jenny will not reveal the secret of this navigation chart. But due to limited time, I can’t be too

I analyzed the situation carefully, but I always felt that I had missed something. I decided to open the wooden box and take a look. Maybe I would find some information I wanted inside.

The wooden box was very tight. I tried several times in succession but could not open it. I took out my paratrooper knife again and pried it open around the mouth of the box. Then I opened it upwards with force.

This time I opened the wooden box easily.

When the big wooden box was opened, in order to ensure safety, I quickly ran back a certain distance to prevent anything hidden in it. If someone suddenly killed me by surprise, it would be a disaster.

The speargun and light in my hand were always facing the mouth of the wooden box. The cabin was very quiet. Except for the bubbling of my breath, there was no reaction. After waiting for dozens of seconds, there was still no response.

In this way, nothing strange happened after the box was opened. I slowly swam forward, and when I got closer, I took a light and shined it inside, and I was immediately dumbfounded.

This big box was actually empty. There was nothing inside. How could this be possible? I checked it carefully several times, fearing that I might miss something, but it was indeed empty. There was absolutely nothing, let alone treasures.

Not even a rag.

This is strange. Such a big wooden box is still empty here. Isn't this logical at all? I still don't believe it. Is there any hidden compartment? But I checked everything inside the box.

After that, there are no hidden compartments at all. Among the cabins I surveyed, only this last one has such a large wooden box, and none of the other cabins have it. What is the use of this wooden box?

I suddenly thought, could it be the person who pried open the lock of this box and took away everything inside? According to the current situation, this is the most likely possibility, otherwise who would put a

The empty box is here.

But then I thought, if this sunken ship has been surveyed and all the things have been taken away, then there is no need for us to continue? I am a little depressed. If this is the case, then

What is the difference between us and those who eat leftovers? In the end, our work is in vain.

Just when I was thinking wildly, suddenly, a figure appeared in my light. I was startled. I immediately picked up the spear gun and pointed it in front of me. The person in front of me turned out to be Mr. Mai.

After I put it down, for a moment, I almost fired the speargun.

Mai Lao gestured and asked me, 'Have you discovered anything?'

I shook my head, then nodded quickly and pointed to the big wooden box next to me. When Mr. Mai saw that there was a wooden box here, he also came over to check it, but like me, he found nothing and found nothing.

I picked up the big lock and handed it to him to look at. I made a casual gesture and said, 'It has been pried open.'

Mai Lao took the lock and looked at it, nodded slightly and gestured, 'It seems someone has been here.'

This old guy thought of going with me as soon as possible. Even if he knew that someone had been here, it was useless. The most important thing now was whether he could find anything valuable, and of course the information I wanted to get.

I gestured to him, 'Did you find anything over there?'

Mai Lao waved his hand and said there was nothing, but it is not a big deal to waste time like this. Let's explore other cabins. I asked Mai Lao to exit quickly, and the two of us swam out of the cabin, Jiao Ba and Shun.

They are already in the aisle of the cabin.

We all gathered together again and began to exchange the information everyone obtained after the investigation. All the cabins on the first floor had been thoroughly inspected by them, and the results were the same as before. Except for broken sacks and corroded food, there was nothing else.

None, not even a rest cabin on the entire first floor.

Mr. Mai took a look at the time. Everyone was going very fast this time and there was still plenty of time. He motioned us to go up to the second floor to continue the investigation. We had to dig through the entire sunken ship today. But just when we were about to set off, the one in my hand

The lights started to flicker again...
