Chapter 685: Prepare for a rainy day

"What about this? Just ignore it?"

Seeing Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi directly ignoring the water and shrimps in the coffin, Wang Kaixuan next to him couldn't help it.

Although he didn't know what the clear water and the shrimp in it were, one thing he was sure of was that it was definitely a treasure.

And he was a person who could never bear to see good things being wasted.

"Fat man, it's best to keep this clear water as it is, otherwise it will probably disappear in a short while."

Having known each other for so many years, Hu Bayi naturally understood what Wang Kaixuan meant and explained aloud after hearing the words.

"Why?" Wang Kaixuan looked at him puzzled.

"How should I say it?" Hu Bayi pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "Let me tell you a story."

"This is what my grandpa told me. Back in the Republic of China, a merchant bought a stone fished out of the sea from a fisherman. The stone looked ordinary, but it had a strange ability.

, placed in an empty bowl, it only takes one night to create a bowl of clear water out of thin air."

"Later, a wealthy businessman from the coast heard about this and spent a lot of money to buy the stone. The wealthy businessman guessed that the stone could produce clear water out of thin air because there was a treasure hidden inside, but he didn't want to break the stone and there would be only a pool of water inside.

Clear water and two small transparent fish, do they feel familiar?"

"Lao Hu, you mean that the situation we are facing now is the same as the story your grandfather told?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

"Yeah." Hu Bayi nodded slightly.

"What happened next?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

He just doesn't like to think, but that doesn't mean he has no brains. It can be heard that Hu Bayi has not finished what he said.

"The two small transparent fish died that day, and the clear water did not last for two days, and soon evaporated and dispersed into the air." Hu Bayi told the end of the story.

Then he continued: "Although the water in the coffin and the shrimps in the water can be called natural creation, it is not that unusual. If you really want to compare it to reality, it is not as valuable as this ancient stone mirror coffin. Look.

Look at the fine lines, this is a truly unique treasure."

The meaning behind his words is very obvious, that is, there is no need to keep an eye on the clear water in the coffin. Whether this thing can be retained is another matter.

Chen Ziyan added at this time: "More importantly, we don't know how to preserve this clean water, so we might as well maintain the reason and try our luck."

He didn't want to just deal with it like this, but no matter how he searched through the memories in his mind, he couldn't find a way to deal with it.

"That's it...what a pity." Wang Kaixuan's face was filled with regret.

But he also knew that this was all he could do for the time being.

"Do you think we have seen this clear water before?"

But at this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly said, attracting everyone's attention.

"Have we met before?" Chen Ziyan looked at Shirley Yang, waiting for her next words.

Why doesn't he remember seeing anything similar?

Shirley Yang reminded: "Didn't the bluestone bottle found in Worm Valley also have a pool of clear water in it?"

"Hiss! It's true!"

Hearing this, Chen Ziyan said suddenly.

If Shirley Yang hadn't told him, he would have never remembered that the situation inside the bluestone bottle he obtained in Worm Valley was very similar to that of the ancient stone mirror coffin.

The only difference is that one has two live shrimps and the other has a miniature jade embryo inside.

He shouldn't have missed it. Ever since he left Worm Valley, one thing had happened one after another, and he had forgotten about the bluestone bottle.

If Shirley Yang hadn't reminded him, he probably wouldn't have remembered it.

"Yes, this is not the same as what was in the bottle." Hu Bayi also slapped his head.

Although there are slight differences, the two are at least 70% similar, making it difficult not to doubt whether there is a connection between them.

Wang Kaixuan was the most impatient. Hearing the conversation among several people, he quickly said: "Where is the bottle? Do you have it with you?"

He wanted to try if he could put the clean water in the ancient stone mirror coffin into it. If he could do it, then he would have found a way to store it.

"I left it at home. We came out to do errands. Why should I take it with me?" Chen Ziyan thought for a while and said.

Because it doesn't take up much space, the bluestone bottle is always in his portable space.

But he didn't plan to take it out directly, because there were still outsiders at the scene, and he didn't want to expose too many of his trump cards.

Furthermore, the bluestone bottle is not empty. Who knows if something bad will happen if you put the water in the coffin hastily.

It would be best if the two could coexist, but if they couldn't, it would destroy two treasures at the same time.

"Oh, why didn't you bring it with you?" Wang Kaixuan's disappointment was evident in his expression.

However, he could also understand that what Chen Ziyan said made sense. He came out to do business, and no one would take all their belongings with them.

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang, on the other hand, vaguely noticed Chen Ziyan's perfunctory behavior, but neither of them exposed him because they could guess what Chen Ziyan was worried about.

To be honest, they don't dare to bet.

"Sarcophagus... stone bottle..." Hu Bayi thought for a while and said: "Do you think there is a connection between the two? For example, the clear water generated by the heaven and earth can only be contained in stone vessels?"

"It's possible." Shirley Yang agreed, but then said: "But we can't verify it. There are no similar artifacts on the ship."

Although there are many strange rocks in the sea, those things usually stay at the bottom of the sea. Even if they want to use local materials, they can't do it.

"We can only verify it when we go back. I hope the water in the coffin can be retained until then," Chen Ziyan said.

His words can be regarded as a conclusion on how to deal with the water in the coffin, which is to keep it in the ancient stone mirror coffin according to the previous plan.

When it comes to this matter, Wang Kaixuan can't say much more.

You can’t just dive to the bottom of the sea to find raw materials right now, right?

Although he usually behaves recklessly, he has not reached this level.

By the time everyone had placed the coffin, the Trident had already left the sea area where it had just been.

Looking at the water that had returned to its normal color, Chen Ziyan stood on the deck and looked into the distance.

According to the estimation given by Ruan Hei, although they had deviated from the route due to the influence of fog.

But the situation is not serious, and it is estimated that we will be able to reach the edge of the coral spiral before sunset.

Chen Ziyan felt that he needed to think about what to do next.

He could guess without thinking that after entering the coral spiral, he would definitely trigger new choices.

And the rewards this time should be very generous.

But he is still a little undecided about whether to take risks for this.

According to his original idea, he would go around the outside of the coral spiral, get all the rewards, and then go back.

But when things came to a close, the adventurous gene in my bones began to beat again, and I was a little unwilling to go back like this.

So he wanted to think about it in advance to avoid making hasty decisions when the time came.

After all, decisions made on short notice will inevitably take into account some omissions.

When doing things, you still have to plan ahead!
