A black shadow outline appeared, and everyone was startled.
[what is that?]
Netizens couldn't help but blurt out and exclaimed.
The scene at this moment was beyond everyone's expectations.
In the live broadcast, I saw a huge thing dormant on the bottom of the sea. Its huge body looked like a dead whale. But if you look closely, you will find that the edges of the whole thing are sharp and angular, and it clearly looks like a big ship.
[Is that a ship? !]
[There is a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea!]
[Oh My God! What else can be seen in Guanzhu Ning’s live broadcast room?]
The barrage came in waves.
At this time, Ning Fei also said:
"It looks like there is a sunken ship on the seabed ahead!"
"Since ancient times, the sea has swallowed countless ships, but the ocean area is too large and the seabed is too deep, so many ships cannot salvage and search and rescue them."
"For example, the Titanic sank at a depth of more than 3,700 meters. It is difficult to find the remains of the ship."
"Moreover, ships will rot quickly in the ocean, and various undersea organisms will colonize them."
"This is China's South China Sea territory. It's really strange that there is such a big ship."
Ning Fei continued to approach.
The closer they get, the more shocked netizens are.
Because this ship is really big.
The entire hull is like a hill!
At the same time, the barrage exploded again, and Ning Fei's popularity increased horribly again.
China's major media, newspapers and periodicals began writing articles, hydrology, etc. as soon as Ning Fei discovered the sunken ship, striving to get this explosive news out as soon as possible.
"It's such a big ship. It looks like the mast has been rotted into disgrace, and only this huge hull is left!"
Ning Fei said again.
Netizens became more and more curious, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the live broadcast screen.
[Guanzhu Ning, when did this shipwreck happen?]
[Could such a big sunken ship be left behind during the war?]
[What a terrible feeling.]
[Oh my god, is there any news about a cruise ship crashing in the South China Sea?]
[Will there be treasures in the ship? Just like in pirate movies, there are boxes and boxes of gold and silver treasures.]
[I can’t say for sure!]
All kinds of barrages came one after another.
Netizens know: Ning Guanzhu, I’m afraid it will be on the hot searches and news again!
"The overall shape of this ship is smooth and the structure is very strong. Judging from its size, it should be a ship from the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, it is most likely a treasure ship from Zheng He's voyages to the West."
"According to the records of "History of the Ming Dynasty" and "The Biography of Zheng He", when Zheng He sailed, there were 63 treasure ships, the largest of which was 44 feet long and 18 feet wide."
"As of today, it is 151.18 meters long and 6.16 meters wide. It was the largest sea-going ship in the world at that time."
""History of the Ming Dynasty, Military Chronicles" mentions: 'The treasure ship is as tall as a building, with a low tip and a wide top, and can accommodate a thousand people.' Its majestic shape is unrivaled, and the anchor alone weighs several thousand kilograms."
Ning Fei observed the structure of the sunken ship on the seabed and said leisurely.
Netizens all showed expressions of confusion.
Although I don’t understand it, I just think it’s awesome.
Ning Guanzhu is great, and so is this ship.
[I am a graduate student in history. I have only studied the history of Zheng He’s voyages to the West. I have never seen it with my own eyes. I really want to thank Ning Guanzhu!]
[This is indeed a wooden ship from the Ming Dynasty. In this era, wooden shipbuilding technology was mature, and China was well deserved to be the number one in the world. Later, during the first industrial revolution, steamships appeared abroad, and the Qing Dynasty could not compare with others.]
[At that time, without engines and gasoline, could such a large ship be built?]
[The ancients were so powerful!]
[It’s so incredible that we actually found a treasure ship from Zheng He’s voyages to the West in the deep sea?]
[Sure enough, magical things happen in places that humans can’t reach!]
The underwater shipwreck aroused the enthusiasm of netizens, and everyone was very excited.
Judging from the live broadcast footage, a small, shiny submarine looked a little small in front of the shadow of a huge sunken ship on the seabed.
At this moment, Ning Fei was like a small fish swimming towards a big whale. The contrast in size gave people a strong sense of visual oppression.
"Zheng He's voyages to the West included five types of ships."
"The first type is the treasure ship, the most magnificent!"
"The second type is a horse boat, thirty-seven feet long and fifteen feet wide, which is slightly smaller."
"The third type is a grain boat, twenty-eight feet long and twelve feet wide, used to store grain."
"The fourth type is by boat, and the fifth type is by warship."
"The division of labor of ships is clear. Some are used to carry cargo, some are used to transport grain, some are used to live, and some are used to fight. The division of labor is meticulous."
"I just don't know whether the ship sank on the way out or on the way back."
Ning Fei drove the submarine and observed the sunken ship on the seabed.
If you look carefully, you can see that the sunken ship on the seabed has been rotted into a state of disgrace. There are many signs of rot on the wood of the ship's hull, and it is filled with various marine fungi and plants.
At this time, some changes occurred in the place where the submarine's light swept.
Ning Fei looked towards the hull of the ship and found that the light shone on the hull, making it completely pitch black.
After looking carefully, I discovered that there was a huge hole in the hull of this sunken ship on the seabed!
The diameter of the hole is about five or six meters, which is very large and can easily allow a submarine to drive in.
What's in the boat
This is a question that everyone is wondering about.
Ning Fei's mission is to go to the sunken ship at the bottom of the sea to find a Pearl of Enlightenment, so he naturally wants to go in.
[There is a big hole there!]
[You can actually go in!]
[The bottom should be the location of the ship's hull, where a lot of cargo is stored.]
[Is it too dangerous?]
Everyone was talking about it.
However, at this time, Ning Fei had already controlled the submarine and slowly drove into the large hole on the side of the ship.
Inside the ship, it was even darker.
Where the light sweeps, you can also see many pillars supporting the hull. These pillars are made of the best giant wood. After so many years of corrosion in the sea, they are still as strong as ever.
Ning Fei controlled the submarine and looked underwater.
It can be seen that the bottom of the ship has been filled with seabed silt, and it looks no different from the outside.
At this time, Ning Fei shined the light into the corner again.
In the corner, several vase-like jars appeared in front of everyone.
Netizens hurriedly opened their eyes, trying to see what it was.
Ning Fei told everyone:
"It's porcelain. When Zheng He went to the Western Seas, he took porcelain and silk with him. On the one hand, the purpose was to promote the country's prestige. In fact, it was to exchange overseas jewelry, rare animals and other things for the royal family's entertainment."
"Silk has long since rotted in the sea, so only porcelain can be preserved for such a long time."
"Porcelain from the Ming Dynasty is very valuable."
"But I have no way to leave the submarine. We are now one thousand meters under the sea. The pressure is very scary. Unless you have a diving suit of the same level as a space suit, no one can get out of a place like this."
After hearing Ning Fei's words, everyone felt a little sorry.
[What a pity that there are so many antiques but there is no way to get them back.]
[Submarines can go down to very deep waters, but humans cannot.]
[Yes, unless there are some mechanical props that can be obtained by controlling the machine.]
[No need, it’s just Ming Dynasty porcelain, which shouldn’t be too expensive.]
[These are all porcelains from Zheng He’s voyages to the West. When collecting antiques, it doesn’t necessarily depend on the year, but also on the history of the object. With this name, these porcelains are valuable!]
[Doesn’t that mean that Guanzhu Ning is looking at these tens of millions of antiques but has no way to get them?]
[Yeah, no one can get it!]
[Next time you drive a submarine, just bring a grabbing device with you.]
[Ning Guanzhu, where are the coordinates? I'll hire a diving team to go there. I think this is profitable.]
After seeing the porcelain, everyone was even more enthusiastic.
After all, it was an antique from Zheng He's voyages to the West, and its value was definitely not low.
In fact, Ning Fei's submarine has a controllable mechanical arm that can store porcelain into a storage space at the back of the submarine.
But Ning Fei didn't tell everyone, nor did he think about touching these antiques.
According to Article 5 of Chapter 1 of the Cultural Relics Protection Law, all cultural relics existing underground, in internal waters and territorial waters within the territory of China belong to the state.
Even if he controlled the robotic arm to collect antiques, they would still belong to the state, so he simply would not say that he had the ability to collect them to avoid unnecessary trouble.
What Ning Fei needs to do now is to find the Pearl of Enlightenment required by the mission.
He moved on.
But then, sometimes something happens that no one expected.
Ning Fei's submarine was seen pointing upwards, and netizens saw a large octopus nearly ten meters long appearing on the beam inside the sunken ship on the seabed!
The light can only shine on half of its body, and not even its entire body can be seen.
Ning Fei's eyes changed and he shouted:
"Oh no, it's a giant squid!"
