The Hailiu Ship Trident is equipped with heavy-duty deep-sea diving equipment, which is made of high-strength and pressure-resistant materials.
The weight reaches 150 kilograms.
When used, it is impossible to enter the water as easily as ordinary divers.
The British designer used the hull to ingeniously Structure, a special small water filling tank is set up in the bottom cabin, and the deep sea diving equipment is fixed in it.
We can only go in and put on the equipment, and wait until the water filling tank is filled with water before we can dive to the bottom of the sea.
Once we entered the water, only Team C was left on the ship to perform support tasks.
I explained a few words to the fat man, and then took Guchai down to the bottom cabin.
With the help of Guchai, I equipped the submersible, turned the valve to fill the water, and dived.
As the human body breathes, the scuba tank filled with mixed gas immediately starts to operate.
Amidst the dull exhaust sound, Shiry Yang, Uncle Ming and I left the bottom cabin and slowly followed the diving rope under the action of the underwater propeller.
Dive slowly.
The location of the "Sanchagan" was parked next to the translucent coral tree, which was as textured as a tortoise shell.
I saw the lights flickering between the old trees.
It was Ruan Heizai, the boss of the ship, and Duo Ling who were fishing for pearls next to a big green snail.
A shark was circling around them.
Sharks did not have the moon-gazing nature of underwater aquatic animals, and they could not catch fish by floating melons.
In the sea, the biggest threat to egg collectors is these ferocious and invincible sharks.
At that time, there were no electronic shark repellers available.
When "Moshan Taoist" collected eggs, they generally used a formula An ancient but very effective shark repellent.
When diving, you carry a leaky jar full of sieve holes with you.
It is filled with solidified shark repellent.
As the body moves underwater, the shark repellent melted by the seawater will be dissolved from the fine particles.
The holes are released one after another to prevent sharks from approaching divers.
Ruan Hei and Duo Ling also brought Taoist Banshan's shark repellent bottles, but there were still sharks circling them from a distance out of curiosity.
Fortunately, master and apprentice Ruan Hei have been egg people for some years.
Danman does this dangerous activity of stroking tiger whiskers.
His mental quality is relatively stable when working underwater, and he has not lost his position under the prying eyes of the sharks.
There are three ways for egg collectors to collect eggs.
If the environment allows, they usually break the clams directly to get the pearls; if the coral iron tree is limited in size, there are also people who uproot the entire coral iron tree and hang it from the water, because the iron tree with good texture can also be sold at a high price; and there is Just pick the clams out of the water, then break the shells on the boat to get the eggs.
The meat of the clams can also be eaten, but it is not certain whether there are eggs in the clams.
Ruan Hei and the two of them dived to the roots of the tree.
Those giant clams have been deep in the sea for many years, and are almost integrated with the reef near the coral tree.
If these snails, clams, pearls and oysters are separated from the tree body rocks to which they are attached, then hang them up one by one.
The water surface is a bit too troublesome.
The only way is to collect eggs on the spot, using a diving spotlight or fine sand as a guide.
When the clam shell is slightly opening and closing, insert anesthetic and let the giant clamman feel it, and then pry open the clam shell and reach out.
Go in and get the South Pearl.
Master Ruan Hei and his disciples did not like diving knives, so they still carried the stone-sand water-dividing knives that the egg people had used since ancient times.
However, in order not to cut through the snail flesh and attract nearby sharks seeking blood, they had to carefully explore the inside of the clam meat little by little. , take out the Nanzhu and immediately wrap it up, hide it in a jar and keep it away, not daring to reveal its essence.
Shiry Yang, Uncle Ming, and I passed by Master Ruan Hei and saw that they were proceeding in an orderly manner.
We felt relieved and made a gesture to them before continuing to dive deeper.
The roots of large iron trees tens of meters high are rooted in the fine sand layer covered with forests on the seabed.
The sand kicked up after landing makes the sea water very turbid.
Suddenly there was an undercurrent pouring into the deep valley at the bottom of the tree.
Due to the heavy equipment, our bodies were only slightly shaken.

I held on to a piece of coral and stopped, pointing diagonally downward to Shiry Yang and Uncle Ming, signaling this.
This is the trough I saw earlier in the diving bell.
If the big black crack in front of us is not sea debris, but a hard shell formed by a layer of sea sediment, then the sunken ship is probably stuck in it, but it is difficult to judge until further confirmation.
I knew that with our equipment and the hasty preparation time, it would be more difficult to salvage the "Thai King's Bone Mirror" from Mary Sanu, but I wanted to try my luck.
It would be great if we could fish it out.
Good, otherwise just finding the sunken ship can give us an explanation, because as long as we get some relics from the ship, we can claim the ownership of the ship as ours, and other salvage teams will not be able to take advantage of it.
As long as there is enough time, Shiry Yang can hire a professional salvage team.
Shiry Yang raised the diving searchlight, wanting to explore the depths of the fault, but the strong light searchlight seemed to have lost its effect here, unable to penetrate the seawater with too many impurities, and could not illuminate the distance at all.
Uncle Ming came up with a way and threw the underwater lighting smoke in.
A dazzling light suddenly illuminated the surrounding area.
When the light flashed, I could see a forest of square stones in the valley, which seemed to be the remains of some ancient building.
However, the water in the deep sea was vortex-shaped, and the undercurrent was chaotic.
The lighting smoke was quickly caught up in the undercurrent, and it fell into an unknown corner. , no light at all.
But at that moment, I seemed to see a huge black shadow in the valley, which seemed to be a sunken ship, but it was too far away, so I couldn't be sure.
And what surprised us most was that although the huge rocks were covered with barnacles, The sediments are neat and orderly, not like they were born naturally.
There are actually the ruins of an ancient city in the valleys on the seabed.
Think of the Kraken Statue found on the Coral Temple Island and the floating coffin found near the Coral Spiral.
Combined with what you see in front of you, it seems that there really was a period here.
The prosperous civilization sank to the bottom of the sea, and even if some relics occasionally were fished out by people as "young people", most of them were difficult to identify due to severe sea erosion, and they eventually became a lost page in human history.
This is probably the place of Guixu recorded in ancient books.
It is the eye of the South China Sea that cannot be filled by all the water in the world, leading to eternal and endless nothingness.
I saw that there seemed to be traces of a ship in the depths, and it was in such a mysterious place.
I couldn't help but feel happy and wanted to go over to find out.
When I saw that Shiry Yang and Uncle Ming were still watching, I patted their diving helmets from behind and let them know.
They turned to look at me.
I pointed to the depth gauge first, and then pointed down to the trench.
With diving propulsion equipment, it would not be easily washed away by the undercurrent, and I also brought an underwater speargun for self-defense.
With reliable equipment, I might as well dive deeper.
Check out the details in one paragraph.
Shiry Yang hesitated for a moment, but it was Uncle Ming who got interested.
He probably thought that now that the eggs had been harvested, if he could get a few more green heads back from the ruins on the seabed, wouldn't it be doubly rewarding and he immediately said he could take the risk.
Upon closer inspection, it turns out that greed is enough to make a snake swallow an elephant.
As long as it is profitable, there is no place he dares not go
