Chapter 12 Trident
Uncle Ming is picking the nose and picking the eyes, in the selection of the boat half refused to be ambiguous, after all, after the sea life will be tied to this boat, finally “break off martial arts” finally understood: “a few of you out to sea this is to have a big action ah? I see you do not look like ordinary to fish green head, the general boat simply can not meet your requirements, truthfully, in the depths of this water hole there is an old ship, is when the British expedition modified, but the British did not wait to go out to sea all inexplicably died, their ship still remains, the ship …… I do not know how to describe it, can only say that there is enough to be a good ship, but also a good ship. How to describe it, can only say that there is enough evil.”
I listen to the “break off the martial arts” said strange, do not know why he will “evil” this word used to describe the ship, but to do very thing, will have to be very choice, maybe that was modified by the British salvage team of the ship is just right for me to use, so decided to go with him to watch, anyway, we do not see the real Buddha does not burn incense, we do not see the real Buddha does not burn incense. We will not burn incense until we see the real Buddha. If there is no suitable vessel, we would rather postpone the sea voyage than buy an old horse and put on a broken saddle, making do with what we have for one day.
Coral Temple under the sea cliff water hole depths, there is a turn, overhead cliffs from the split, open line, in the light does not shine in the shadow moored a strange wooden boat, this ship shape is very old, in the outer sea operation of the ship its size belongs to a small boat, can carry ten people, the hull of the main wooden structure, dark flooded with shimmering, all the rivets are embedded in wood, and then wedge with wooden Sealed, the selected material mixed with a part of the sea willow, that is a kind of tree in the sea floor, moisture and heat will not be deformed, and resistant to corrosion, as new as ever, very strong, able to withstand the test and baptism of the sea waves.
Willow alone this material has been very rare, although it looks like a willow tree, but in fact is a kind of marine life will not move, tens of thousands of years to get shaped, every inch is a treasure, due to the endangered, so in modern times rare, there is a kind of superstition along the coast, if you use the willow in the hull of the important components, will be blessed by the God of the water.
The style of this boat is old, seems to have hundreds of years of history, in order to style to see this old boat can enter the museum, but why look like just built as new, many places have been modified, so the hull of the various parts of the boat appears to be very incongruous, there are many on the body of the boat we have never seen the equipment, there are really a few evil.
“Wuwu” for us to do a detailed introduction, a few decades ago this area of rampant banditry, this ship is the year the bandits used the fast boat, and then the nearby bandits were gradually eliminated, this fast boat was hidden in this water hole, was found by the fishermen converted into a fishing boat, so the boat nets, fishing guns, fishing guns, all complete.
Later the British Tanton Salvage Company people want to go into the coral spiral to fish green head, but that part of the sea which is so easy to go, the ship is large in the coral spiral easy to reef, the ship can not be installed too much electronic equipment, so they looked at this sea willow boat, after more than half a year of modification, now under the draft line are copper plate armor, the original power part was removed, in order to be safe and sound, converted into a steam burning coal and motor two kinds of Power switching four sets of propeller drive, sailing maneuverable, equipped with lifeboats on both sides of the ship, there are two medium caliber Indian water god gold Vishnu guns, capable of firing four different kinds of shells for different purposes, the ship is equipped with winches and fishing guns, as well as a variety of simple salvage operations necessary for the equipment.
After the boat hanging two huge oval copper ball, this thing is called “diving bell”, is a kind of airtight closed diving tools, can be loaded into the person with a chain hanging into the seabed, reconnaissance of the underwater situation, although this method is clumsy and primitive, but in the crisis of the seabed of the divers have a better role in protecting.
In the cabin also left some of the British special equipment, including British-made deep-sea rescuer, belonging to the heavy diving equipment, able to dive to the bottom of the sea about two hundred meters, weighing about one hundred and fifty pounds, it can ensure that divers in high-pressure, low-temperature, lack of oxygen, the dark environment to complete the task safely, the metal helmet has a viewing window, can be connected with the rubber material diving suit, and has an exhaust valve to maintain a stable There is also an exhaust valve to maintain a stable pressure and expel breathing gas. This equipment is still in the experimental stage so far, and belongs to the trial type in the period of updating and upgrading, and there is a certain degree of risk factor when using it.
Even after such a full preparation, the British still dare not act easily, because the coral spiral is a ghosts and evil spirits infested with the sea of hell, the wind letter is messy, the boat but close to the needle will be lost rudder, and there are hurricanes throughout the year, the sky is rarely clear, when the sky is clear, and mirage variations of the sea, often the sea boat into the wrong way, for the expedition all kinds of difficulties can be overcome, only the Lost in the vast ocean, only the sea is boundless, do not know the east and west, north and south, but look forward to the sun, moon and stars, if even the sky can not be seen, the ship sooner or later will be lost and difficult to return.
Because of this insurmountable reason, the British salvage team eventually gave up the plan, just before they are ready to return to the eve, suddenly the whole group died on the ship, the cause of death is very strange, there are superstitious fishermen said that because of this sea willow boat yin qi is too heavy, too many people died in the above, the souls of the ghosts wrapped around the legs, with the ghost ship contact for a long time, will be on board the body of the death of the ghosts of the specific circumstances of the case! “break Wu” can not say, he knows not in detail, now the owner of the ship, is now helping to carry out the refitting work of the local natives, if interested in wanting to this ship, “break Wu” can help to lead the negotiations on the price.
It turns out that this ship is a “ghost ship”, the ship has died a lot of people, it does not look very auspicious, and the reason for this “to break the martial arts” knowledge is limited to speak clearly, for these things that are not true, I always will not believe, just had to leave a heart and mind in this matter, I hope to find a chance to try to find out the truth. I hope to find an opportunity to try to find out the truth, although it is better to believe that there is, not to believe that there is no, but also can not listen to lala mayflies called not planting, and now where to look for more suitable boat than this sea willow fast boat to go?
Uncle Ming and I are very satisfied with this boat, there is a kind of indescribable feeling, with this boat can break into the coral spiral, but “break Wu” and said: “so many years, I have not heard of anyone into the coral spiral, where the sea ghosts are unpredictable, underwater fire submerged in the sea burning, by no means a good place, if you listen to my good advice If you listen to my advice, you should stop thinking about it, but if you really want to enter the sea, I think only this sea willow boat can do, but the premise is that there must be a captain who can drive it into the coral spiral, but this experienced old sea wolf and where to find.”
