Chapter 7 The Fish that Swallowed the Boat (below)

Fishermen to the coral spiral to pick beads is a means of wealth, but the risk factor is too great, if not to the end of the desperate situation, there will be no one is willing to take that risk, and even to the coral spiral mussels to pick beads, but also in the periphery of the activities, no one dares to approach the eye of the sea, one is a legend from ancient times, the side of the haunted, there are ghosts dragging people into the sea and drowning, and secondly, the reef is densely populated, the boat will go in to touch the reef, a little bit of carelessness, will become a seabed display in the graveyard of the Coral Spiral wrecks, there are many other mysterious reasons is even more confusing. Will become a coral spiral shipwreck graveyard in the seabed display, there are many other mysterious reasons, it is more confusing, say a lot of complicated no clue, thousands of years of difficult to have a final conclusion.

Bead pickers and pouring bucket is actually almost the same, but also seventy-two lines in the craftsmen, but in the sea can never mention “pouring” this kind of words, they also never directly called the pearl for “pearl”, but to “egg They also never directly call the beads “beads”, but to “eggs”, because from generation to generation, they say that those who died in the sea because of the beads or shipwrecks in the sea of ghosts, are also attracted by the essence of the moonlight beads, the moment they hear the living mention the word “beads”, will be at the bottom of the sea to ask for a person’s life.

Since ancient times in the coral spiral bead picking people, they call themselves egg people, do the work called egg picking, so Uncle Ming a drink egg noodle soup, immediately remembered this thing, then egg people picking beads is to tie a long rope tied to the waist tied to carry a bamboo basket full of stones, as well as change the air with the bubble of pig’s urine sunk into the sea, and then try to lure the old mussels open the clam shells, probe into the body or the arm to pick the beads, if there is a small mussels picked up to the basket, shake the long rope, and then try to lure the old clams open the shells, probe into the body or arm to pick the beads, if there are small mussels picked up to the If there are small clams, they will pick them up and put them in the basket, shake the long rope, and the people on the boat will pull the rope and take the bamboo basket up, sometimes the egg picking skill is poor or unlucky, they will be pinched to death by the giant clams, as well as unfortunate to meet the bad fishes, most of the people who have broken the rope will be unaccounted for forever, and only a line of blood will float up to the surface of the sea, and even the bones of the bodies will not be collected back.

Egg picking generation, nine out of ten will end up in this tragic end of the bottom of the sea, if by chance do not die to retrieve the pearl, it is a night of riches, but the world greedy, take a take a second, but then go to pick eggs often may not be able to come back alive.

Said this line is not easy, in addition to the danger, but also need a large degree of luck, because no one dares to enter the depths of the coral spiral, are in the periphery of the beads, and even then also want the Dragon King rewarded to these bitter people one or two hours of good weather, or not yet wait for the beads in the water, the boat on the first turn over.

Only those experienced, familiar with the old sea wolves of this sea, only to recognize this voyage, Uncle Ming’s uncle in the early years of the egg collection of the egg people, in the mouth of the Buddha lost money, had to return to his old profession, but he was not expected to go into the water for the first time, so let the fish swallowed, together with the four who went down did not come up alive, then Uncle Ming is still very young, the matter of stimulation of him really not light. It is still fresh in his mind.

Now the coral spiral outside the sea mussels have been picked up almost, but no one is willing to risk into the eye of the sea along the beads, because it is to make a living rather than to die, so the depths of the coral spiral mussel beads have always been untouched, accumulating I do not know how many thousands of tens of thousands of years, that is definitely an excavation of the treasure, but do not look at the technological advances now, the equipment and equipment is not worse than the past simple, but want to get into the terrain of the complexity of the coral spiral to take the treasure. But don’t look at the technological advancement nowadays, the equipment and instruments are not as simple as in the past, but it is still unrealistic to get into the coral spiral with complicated terrain.

Listen to Uncle Ming said, I and fat man, big gold teeth three people feel dry mouth, I do not know is the noodle soup salty or see the wealth of the intention, the heart itchy hand itchy outside, but also stirred up the heart of the hunt, fat man excitedly said to us: “I see this moonlight pearl but do not take white not to take it ah, take it is to act for the sake of heaven, do not take it is purely treasonous, although the risk is not small, but this is called not to worry about the risk of three times, it is difficult to get a light, this time if the success of a body. A light, this time if successful, we can less struggle for twenty years, but the cost of doing this will not be too little, tomorrow let Professor Chen to provide us with funds to the sea beads, we can learn from Lei Feng, by the way, to help him salvage the King of Qin’s bone mirror, which is really a public half of the private half of the name and the right words and the right top of the hook.”

Dajinya also said: “fat master said is extremely, all things are not money difficult to start, once without food how to station troops? In the United States, no matter what business is inseparable from the money, but with our own economic strength is really a little overwhelmed, since there is this opportunity, we are not a research study to see if there is feasibility?”

I think Uncle Ming if you understand the situation of the South China Sea sea eye, that’s the best, but not over Uncle Ming is not an oil lamp, if he has a way to go in to pick beads can wait until now to tell us, that sea eye is actually a bottomless pit, how many seawater pouring in day and night also never see full, although I have not seen, but from the rumors to judge, but even and the Jingjie ghost hole is extremely similar to imagine that there is actually hidden what the secret! I can’t imagine what secrets are hidden there. The mysterious and unpredictable sea is not so good to go, in case there is some mistake, I am afraid to go in and come out.

I am also very clear that we have to go to the coral spiral in public and private, this is something sooner or later, so I said to the crowd: “people are heroes, money is the courage, low-level interest is not a crime, we are businessmen, businessmen are all for the benefit of, as long as profitable, there is no reason not to go, but I do not think there is no certainty of things, it is best that we do not do it, you first calm down, and so I went to discuss with Shirley Yang, she is a good person, and she has a very good reputation. Shirley Yang to discuss the discussion, her family ancestors are moving mountain Taoist, long time in Jiangsu and Zhejiang coastal hook, specializing in unique moving mountain reclamation art, if there is a complement to this sea exploration technology, we go to the South China Sea to take the beads straight as a bag to pick up a backhanded shut the door in general, no waste of effort.”

(Note: Sea Wolf refers to the old sailor with rich experience in navigation)

As an explorer, prompting him to continue to risk their motives, at least the base and curiosity, ambition, faith and mission of these four factors, I do not know the gold school captain is not considered a professional explorer, but these motives we are the same quite a lot, the key is to have a legitimate excuse, it can be more to show our courage, the four drank steaming noodle soup, exploring the South China Sea eye of the sea will be how much profit, and finally came up with the result is difficult to estimate, the sea wolf is an experienced sailor. The final result is difficult to estimate, can light up the entire seabed of the moonlight pearl, is the essence of millions of years of sea air condensation, not into the seabed at all guess how many old mussels in the coral spiral giant pearl.

Think of those inexhaustible treasure, can not help but make people God Chi Tiannan, hate to insert the wings immediately fly over, the big gold teeth said: “When the first time in the Panjiayuan see Hu master and fat master, felt that the two table is not common, follow you to mix with the sooner or later can make a fortune, which is called discerning heroes ah, and now we are about to go to the United States to show off the grandeur of the funds, but is the shortcomings of the funds, but would like to ice to eat! Hail in the sky, the eye of the sea there is such a big treasure, according to brother’s humble opinion, with our master Hu’s secret art of touching the gold, coupled with Ms. Yang’s ancestor passed down the mountain reclamation mastery, this pile of riches is not ours.”
