255. Chapter 255: Discovering a Sunken Ship
Long Xuan hurriedly ran out of the captain's room and ran towards the bottom of the ship. Soon, he saw the huge gap. At this time, water was constantly surging into the gap, and this cabin had been submerged by seawater.
Di Xin, the shipwright, had already appeared here, looking at the huge gap, frowning slightly.
"It's not easy to handle. I'm afraid I can only patch it."
Seeing Long Xuan walk in, Di Xin said.
"Then just patch it. Anyway, there is a Repair Gu on the Sky Island. Maybe the Repair Gu can repair this opening."
Since the ship could continue to sail, Long Xuan felt relieved. For him, this ship only needed to persist until the Sky Island. Some damage didn't matter. Anyway, he would only go to sea this once, and after that, he would return to land.
Di Xin shook her head and smiled: "You used all thousand-year iron wood. How could such high-grade things be easily repaired by the Repair Gu?"
"If the Repair Gu were really that heaven-defying, why would I let it go to you? If it could repair any ship, wouldn't I, the shipwright, be unemployed?"
Long Xuan didn't explain too much and added: "Then I'll trouble you. By the way, pour the water out here. Anyway, you have many hands. I'll go see the other crew members."
As the words fell, Long Xuan turned and left immediately.
Hearing this, Di Xin's face turned black. He actually asked her to pour out so much water here. He really treated her as a beast of burden.
Walking to the deck, Long Xuan saw that the old ship doctor was already treating the wounded on the ship, so he immediately walked over and asked: "What's the situation? No casualties, right?"
Shi Jiefu shook his head and said: "Most of the force was borne by the ship's hull. The crew only suffered not-so-light vibration injuries, but it's not enough to die."
"However, they need to recuperate for a period of time. I'm afraid they won't be able to share the captain's worries in the short term."
Hearing this, Long Xuan felt relieved, looked at Shi Jiefu, and said: "Then they will be handed over to you next."
Long Xuan looked at the other crew members holding important positions again.
The strength of this batch of crew members was far better than ordinary sailors, and their injuries were not heavy. That young Master Mo was still writing travel notes there excitedly, and even drew the big guy on the travel notes. His heart was really big enough.
Today was so dangerous, and he could still laugh.
Leng Yan's face was a bit pale, looking outside the ship and saying: "This world is really mysterious. If you don't go out and see, you will never know how many unknowns are waiting for us in this world."
Nie Qingcheng sighed: "I miscalculated this time. I should have bypassed the central area. The central area of the Death Sea Region is not something we can traverse at present."
Long Xuan comforted: "Who could have imagined that there would be such an inconceivable existence there? You don't have to blame yourself."
"Now we have sailed away from the central area. We only need to sail in the area at the edge of the Death Sea Region next. We shouldn't encounter any fatal dangers again."
Seeing that all the crew members on the ship were fine, Long Xuan didn't chat anymore and walked away to repair the Divine Dragon ship.
Di Xin, the shipwright, could only patch the Divine Dragon ship. The damaged tiny array patterns could only be repaired by him personally.
Not to mention other places, just the huge opening at the bottom of the ship, the array patterns on it were all split into two, causing the Divine Dragon ship to lose a part of its functions and performance, which required him to repair them in time.
Next, the Divine Dragon ship sailed for another two months. During these two months, there were still no big troubles, but small troubles were continuous.
Every day, the Divine Dragon ship would be chased by all kinds of sea beasts, but under the heaven-defying speed of the Divine Dragon ship, the sea beasts with fast speed were easily thrown off by the Divine Dragon ship, and everyone on the ship survived one crisis after another without danger.
The only slightly troublesome thing was that a large-scale plague broke out on the ship one day, which was highly contagious. Many crew members were infected, and even the ship doctor was helpless in the face of this situation, claiming that this plague was unknown and had already exceeded the scope of what he had learned.
However, just when everyone felt desperate, the plague was easily solved by Long Xuan's Calamity Poison Gu, and all the crew members were dumbfounded.
At this time, Long Xuan felt the danger level of the Death Sea Region once again. It was because the Divine Dragon ship's performance was high enough and his trump cards were endless; otherwise, whoever came to this sea area would die, and those who could live and come out were probably lucky people.
But danger and opportunity coexist. This sea area, which is difficult for humans to set foot in, is simply full of treasures.
Not going far, everyone could find spirit herbs growing on the seabed, and there was no lack of thousand-year spirit herbs or ten-thousand-year spirit herbs. They picked medicine until their hands cramped along the way, and they couldn't pick them all. Everyone was crazy with joy.
This trip to the Death Sea Region was enough to make their net worth rich, and everyone had enough wealth to refine one or two top-grade Gu insects.
And the one who earned the most was undoubtedly the captain, Long Xuan.
He put the World Tree seed into the seawater, opened an opening, and let the seawater pour into the World Tree seed frantically.
Thus, an ocean world was formed in the World Tree seed.
He planted all the aquatic spirit herbs harvested into the ocean in the World Tree seed, so he had another aquatic medicine garden with an amazing area.
When he was pouring water into the World Tree seed, he also accidentally ran into a large batch of spirit fish of various kinds, and the ecosystem of this small world had begun to form gradually.
On this day, Long Xuan finally welcomed the biggest harvest.
"Captain! My Treasure-Hunting Dolphin found a sunken ship on the seabed! This is a very large nine-story treasure ship! We are going to make a fortune!"
"Tsk tsk! I haven't even seen a nine-story treasure ship, but it's much bigger than the Money ship we encountered before."
Following Ye Qingluan's happy voice, Long Xuan in the bedroom was startled and could no longer sit still, hurriedly put down the work of researching pill formulas, and rushed out excitedly.
"Where? Take me to see it quickly!"
Long Xuan rushed out at the fastest speed.
The rest of the crew were also crazy at this time, running out of the ship's cabin one after another, quickly coming to the deck, looking at the sea surface with burning eyes.
Not long after, under the leadership of that cute dolphin, the crew finally perceived the huge sunken ship, and everyone was excited.
"Hahaha... It's really there, it's really the legendary nine-story treasure ship! It's my first time seeing a nine-story treasure ship. We are going to make a fortune this time!" Xiong Dali laughed wildly.
"Haha, which group of unlucky guys is this, daring to sail to the Death Sea Region, and now it's sunk? Now it's all cheap for us!" Qiu Tiandao laughed excitedly.
"Looking at the years, it has been a long time, and it may not even be a ship of this era. It has been buried here for endless years." Leng Yan's eyes were also shining at this time, and her voice carried excitement that could not be concealed.
That was a nine-story treasure ship, with a huge volume and a large number of Gu Cultivators on it. Not to mention what their net worth was, just the various materials for building a nine-story treasure ship were already an astronomical figure. Even if they just dismantled the ship, it would be enough to make a lot of money.
Long Xuan couldn't wait, and hurriedly let the Divine Dragon ship change into the second form, and the whole ship's hull quickly dived into the sea.
Deep-sea salvage operations are quite difficult, but for the Divine Dragon ship with diving function, deep-sea salvage is simply the simplest thing. Just drive the ship to the seabed.
The Divine Dragon ship dived for I don't know how long. In the excited eyes of everyone, the ship's bottom finally made a sound, and it finally reached the bottom.
This was already the edge of the Death Sea Region, so although the water here was black, it was not as black as ink in the central area. With the help of the Divine Dragon ship's lights, the situation at close range could still be seen clearly.
At this time, the Divine Dragon ship was landing on the deck of a giant ship. The deck of this ship was simply too wide, simply like a huge wooden island, and it was more than enough to live a hundred thousand troops on it.
Don't think that the Divine Dragon ship has three floors and will only be three times smaller than a nine-story treasure ship. That's not how it's calculated at all.
The Divine Dragon ship's three floors can live six people, and people's nine floors can live thousands of people. Can you compare with this?
Strictly speaking, the size of the Divine Dragon ship is only equivalent to a one-story treasure ship. It's not how many floors there are, how many floors there are.
Everyone saw this giant ship, and their mouths were opened into an "O" shape, looking at this behemoth with dull eyes.
Compared to this behemoth, the seven-story treasure ship of the Qian Clan's ninth young master was practically a little brother.
"Is this the ancient people's shipbuilding technology? To think they could build such a massive ship. We, the Mo family, as the number one shipbuilding family in Star Sea City, find it quite a struggle to build a five-story treasure ship, yet the ancients could easily build a nine-story one! Is this the wisdom of the ancients?"
The eldest young master Mo looked at this giant ship with shock, clicking his tongue in wonder.
Leng Yan looked at this giant ship with eyes full of brilliance, sighing: "How can they be compared? Theoretically, the era should always be progressing, but unfortunately, the heaven and earth spiritual power is being used up more and more, leading to the extinction of many high-grade materials, which indirectly led to the loss of many technologies."
"The reason the ancients were far stronger than people today is not because they were smarter than us, but entirely because they were born in a good era."
"In their era, resources were abundant, treasures were everywhere, any heaven-defying thing could be researched, and their cultivation speed was also far, far faster than ours."
"And no matter how brilliant we later generations are, suffering from a lack of resources, even a clever housewife cannot cook without rice. We can only be left far behind by the ancients. As time passes, the gap will become larger and larger, and the era will gradually regress."
"This nine-story treasure ship used too many materials exceeding the fourth grade, and materials exceeding the fourth grade have long been extinct in this current era, so how could we possibly build such a large ship."
Leng Yan revealed a look of unwillingness.
"That's right! We were just born at the wrong time; we are not inferior to the ancients. It's just a pity that this ship has been soaking in the sea for too long, passing through countless years, and most of the materials have already been corroded. I'm afraid we won't be able to salvage many things," Qiu Tiandao said regretfully.
"Hahaha, be content. Even if we can only utilize one ten-thousandth of the materials here, it is enough for each of us to become immensely wealthy. We are truly going to get rich this time!" Xiong Dali laughed loudly, his eyes revealing a burning gaze. (End of chapter)
