Me who fears women travels with beautiful girls

Chapter 167 22, Ancient Wood

The huge whale shark swayed its tail and slowly moved forward along the ocean current, opening its huge abyss mouth, constantly filtering the plankton in the sea.

Song Wenbin suddenly saw such a big thing, it would be a lie in his heart to say not to panic, but after panic, he was deeply shocked.Such a huge and magnificent creature, even if the real dragon is alive, it is nothing more than that.

At this moment, he forgot about all the tasks, treasures and clues.

Almost instinctively, he kicked down, swung his feet and swam to the side of the behemoth, the contact at such a quiet distance made his mind sway.The whale shark's body surface is scattered with light-colored spots and criss-crossing light-colored bands. Those spots are as beautiful as stars in space.

Song Wenbin put his palm on the whale shark's back, stroked the little stars on its skin, and trembled.

The huge whale shark swam gently past him, like other creatures in the ocean, neither enthusiastic nor indifferent.Groups of fish followed behind the whale shark, like a guard of honor for the emperor.

The shock of seeing the whale shark for the first time made Song Wenbin forget himself. He surfaced, took a deep breath and then dived again. This time, he simply swam up to the whale shark and gently caught the huge vertical fin on its back, letting it carry himself, swimming in the water.

Seeing Song Wenbin like this, Su Tina's eyes lit up.The sight of people and animals swimming in harmony made her forget the fear brought about by the boundless ocean. Instead of being tense, she pointed at the whale shark and looked at Huo Yu longingly.

Huo Yu understood, took her by the hand and shook her feet, and led her to swim to the whale shark. The three of them, together, followed the sea monster, swimming aimlessly.

Whale sharks don't care about how many people are behind them. For these ancient creatures, the appearance of three people is no different from how many fish are added. There is no selfishness, and there is no distinction.

Huo Yu swam to Song Wenbin's side. Song Wenbin took a look at her, let go of his arms, and gave the fins to his two colleagues. He swayed and swam to the belly of the whale shark, watching curiously as it opened its mouth and kept filtering. seawater.

It is hard to imagine that a creature can grow so huge only by relying on the most basic materials.The magic of the power of creation can be seen.

However, when he swam to the side of the whale shark, Song Wenbin saw a deep strangulation mark on its left fin. There was a fishing net as thick as an arm on the strangulation mark, and the fishing net had been strangled into the flesh.

Seeing this, Song Wenbin felt pain in his heart. He swam to Su Tina's side, pulled her arm, and pulled out a diving knife from the BCD on the forearm. Afterwards, Song Wenbin swam to the whale shark, and slowly cut off the knife wrapped around it. Fishing nets on fish fins.

The huge sea creature seemed to realize something. When Song Wenbin helped it cut the fishing net, it stopped swimming.After cutting, it glanced at Song Wenbin lightly, turned its head, and swam towards the depths of the sea, slowly disappearing from his sight.

Song Wenbin floated in place with a diving knife, watching the whale shark disappear, thinking that this trip to Indonesia probably wasn't in vain.

He exhaled a foul breath, swam to the surface of the sea, panting heavily, thinking that it was almost time to go back.However, he waited on the surface of the sea for a while, but did not see Huo Yu and Su Tina coming up, which made him a little strange.

After diving into the sea again, he found that Huo Yu and Su Tina were floating at a depth of two meters underwater, staring at a coral reef.

Song Wenbin swam to Huo Yu and Su Tina, patted Huo Yu on the shoulder, and motioned for her to bring Su Tina to the surface.

However, Huo Yu pulled the breathing tube out of Su Tina's mouth, took a sip and stuffed it back, pointing to a protrusion on the coral reef in front of him for him to see.

Song Wenbin stared at the bulge for a while, but didn't think there was anything wrong.

It's just a coral reef.

But after taking a closer look, he vaguely felt a little strange.

The strange thing is that the reef in front of me is a bit straight, and it looks a little dazzling among a pile of coral reefs that are either in the shape of mushrooms, in the shape of a pile of plates, or in the shape of crooked hills.It belongs to the kind that feels nothing at first glance.If you look closely, there's something there.But the more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong.

Song Wenbin took a closer look, and the surface of this reef is the same as other coral reefs, covered with various sea anemones, hydra, sea anemones, and sea squirts.

However, it is straight.

It was hard for him to imagine that nature would create such a straight coral reef.

So Song Wenbin took a sharp diving knife and scratched the straight coral reef a few times indiscriminately.The surface of this coral reef has been silted with a thick biological layer, like the muscles on the bones, which are extremely thick.But he couldn't hold back the sharpness of the diving knife. After scraping randomly, Song Wenbin removed the thick biological layer and saw what was under the coral reef.

It is dark brown, and there are some vertical lines on the surface. The lines are obviously not stone lines, but wood.
Song Wenbin's eyes widened instantly, a bunch of bubbles popped out of his mouth, he swam to the surface of the water involuntarily, panting wildly.Even though he had only dived two meters, he felt as if he had just come up from the bottom of 200 meters, and it was extremely difficult to breathe.

Coral grows on the wood, and it grows so thick.This can only show one thing, this piece of wood has a history of at least a hundred years, and a piece of wood can be soaked in seawater for hundreds of years without decay, which shows that this is not an ordinary material.

Soon, Su Tina and Huo Yu also emerged from the water. They were floating on the water, gasping for breath.

Song Wenbin looked at them, and each could see the excitement and trembling in their eyes.

"wood wood"

Su Tina said tremblingly.

"Huo Yu, don't move." Song Wenbin said.

He looked around and after making sure that there were no other boats around, he immediately pulled Su Tina and swam towards the Sanbao.

After boarding the ship, without her reminding, Su Tina quickly took off the mask on her face and the diving suit on her body.After taking off her diving suit, she was wearing a bikini and rushed into the cabin without even having time to wipe off the water.Song Wenbin didn't bother to talk about her, so he rushed to the cockpit and put on his diving suit.

While wearing him, he held the communication equipment on the ship and said, "Kong Mao, arrange the lifting equipment for me."

Captain Kong Mao understood, came out of the captain's cabin, and pushed out a pulley motor unit from the warehouse to the cockpit.

At this time, the film crew also came up from the water one after another. Su Tina rushed out of the cabin with a laptop and a large bath towel, and said excitedly: "You go into the water first, we will take that piece of water." Pick up the wood first and let the domestic team appraise it."

Before the words were finished, Song Wenbin rushed out on a motorboat like flying.

The motorboat galloped across the water, made a sharp turn and stopped beside Huo Yu. Huo Yu climbed onto the motorboat from the sea, Song Wenbin handed the motorboat to him, and jumped into the sea with the rope.

Underwater, Song Wenbin came to the vicinity of the coral reef again, swam to the raised place, tied the rope to the raised piece of wood, and then swam to the surface.

Huo Yu rode on the motorboat and asked, "How to say, how to take it off?"

"Try it with a crane first."

Song Wenbin handed the rope to Huo Yu.

Huo Yu rode a motorboat back to the Sanbao not far away, and handed the rope to Kong Mao. Kong Mao put the rope on the pulley motor unit, and after confirming that it was correct, the motor unit began to rotate.

The underwater rope was slowly tightened, and Song Wenbin swam underwater, closely watching the movement of the bottom.

But as the rope tightened, the piece of wood remained motionless.This motor unit that can pull a heavy truck out of the mud on land can't pull a log.

Years of sedimentation and growth of corals have made it completely integrated with the surrounding coral reefs. Song Wenbin looked at the sea water under the coral reefs. The sea water is at least 70 to [-] meters deep, which can accommodate whale sharks swimming in it.And this means that the coral reef here is at least a giant barrier reef.

At this time, Su Tina's anxious voice came from the earphone: "It's useless, Brother Song, the motor unit seems to be unable to move."

The photographer on the side swam over and took the underwater photobook to shoot this thrilling scene.

Song Wenbin swam to them, waved his arms, and signaled them to stay away from here. The fact that the motor unit can't pull the coral reef doesn't mean it's weak. normal.

After driving away the photographer, Song Wenbin swam to the surface of the water and made a gesture of stopping, and Kong Mao not far away stopped the electric unit.

Huo Yu tacitly rode a motorboat to Song Wenbin, and Song Wenbin got on the motorboat and sat behind Huo Yu to return to the boat.Su Tina hurried up to meet her and said, "What if the motor doesn't work?"

Without taking off his clothes, Song Wenbin walked directly to the bow of the yacht, expressionlessly untied the cable connecting the bow to the anchor. The cable was as thick as a person's arm and extremely heavy.

Song Wenbin threw the cable to Huo Yu and said, "Carry this thing into the water, and use the boat to break the reef."

Huo Yu immediately understood what Song Wenbin was thinking, and carried the cable on his shoulders together with him. Su Tina's face turned pale from being frightened by Song Wenbin's crazy thoughts, and she said loudly: "No! That may be a cultural relic! It can't be like this Violence!"

Song Wenbin asked: "Do you think that thing is shaped like a box?"

"Not like"

Su Tina said.

"It's not like that's enough. Our goal is to find the box, not to protect cultural relics, and this is Indonesia and not China. There is no time for you to brush slowly with a toothbrush. Besides, before you find it, it has already soaked in the bottom of the sea. How many years, if not for us, it will not be discovered until it rots into a dregs at the bottom of the sea."

"But."

"Get out of the way." Song Wenbin pushed her away and said with the walkie-talkie: "Drive the boat over."

Kong Mao in the captain's room got the order to drive the Sanbao forward slowly.

Su Tina turned around in a hurry, but there was nothing she could do, her hands were twisted into twists.

The Sanbao stopped very close to the reef, and Song Wenbin and Huo Yu jumped into the water with the cable. They untied the thin rope wrapped around the wood, and tied the whole thick cable to the whole piece of wood attached to it. on a coral reef.After confirming that they were correct, Song Wenbin and Huo Yu swam out of the water.

When she went back to the boat to tie the cable, Su Tina was still worried, and she murmured: "No, we finally found something that has been around for many years. What if it breaks?"

"Cultural relics also serve people." Song Wenbin ignored her concerns, and after tying the rope, he ordered: "Start the boat and move forward at full speed."

Kong Mao got the order and pushed the speed lever of Sanbao to the end.The yacht worth tens of millions of dollars started at full strength, accompanied by a huge force of more than 4000 horsepower and a huge impact of tens of tons, and there were few obstacles.There was a muffled bang all over the water, and a whole piece of coral reef broke apart.

Song Wenbin immediately led all the divers to swim underwater. As expected, the coral reef was completely broken. Inside the coral reef, there was a thick piece of wood wrapped in it. It was about two meters long as a whole, and the part inserted into the coral reef was even longer. It is more than one meter deep, and the whole body is flat, like a wooden sword inserted into a stone.

At the bottom of the section, after the corals and marine life dispersed, Song Wenbin could clearly see that it was a piece of wood, a wooden deck from a certain ship, and at the end wrapped by coral reefs, the collision could be vaguely seen resulting extrusion marks.

Soon, this two-meter-long piece of wood was carried to the Sanbao.

Su Tina almost couldn't wait to throw herself on the wood and began to stroke it.

The director at the side couldn't hide his excitement, and knelt on the ground with a camera to shoot wildly.Even the captain Kong Mao couldn't help leaving his post and came to the deck to watch the piece of wood salvaged by Song Wenbin's team from the sea.

The wood did not break due to Song Wenbin's quick and decisive actions, it was as intact as a tooth pulled out of the mouth by someone pulling it out with a rope, and there were still some traces on the gums that had not been completely covered by the coral reef, even after hundreds of Years of seawater washing, the color there is vaguely showing woody brownish yellow, with clear texture, which is amazing.

"Hainan huanghuali, Meizhou Shizhui wood"

Su Tina stroked the wood tremblingly and shed tears excitedly. She stammered and said, "This is lumber. The lumber was one of the materials used for treasure ships back then."
