Team Leader Qin looked at Lin Chuchu questioningly, and Lin Chuchu nodded at him.
"Since we've come across it, we should definitely try to salvage it."
How could she possibly miss it? If she misses it this time, who knows when she'll be able to go to sea again.
Lin Chuchu was once again tightly bound, with only her eyes and hands exposed, and an oxygen mask over her mouth.
Liu Xiaonuan chuckled, "Sister Chuchu, you look so funny, like a big bug."
Lin Chuchu rolled her eyes. There was nothing she could do; she hadn't even learned to swim yet, let alone dive.
Having not been in the water for a long time, Lin Chuchu still needed some time to adjust.
Fortunately, it only took half a day to get used to it.
She was lying on her back, unable to see what was happening underwater. Mu Chen didn't dare to dive too deep with them and quickly stopped.
Then, Qin and his team skillfully led the people down to the seabed. When they reached the bottom, Lin Chuchu was turned around and stretched out her hands, touching the sunken ship.
The sunken ship vanished instantly, and several corpses appeared before us.
There were also some live fish and shrimp. When they first came out, they seemed a little confused, not understanding why their home was suddenly gone.
Such a scene hadn't appeared in a long time, and Lin Chuchu quickly felt herself being pulled upwards again.
On land, she could go wherever she wanted, but underwater, she could only be dragged around by the crowd.
Soon, they reached the surface of the water, and Lin Chuchu's oxygen mask was removed, revealing Mu Chen's worried face.
"Are you alright? Do you feel unwell anywhere? Do you feel nauseous or like to vomit?"
Lin Chuchu shook her head. "No, I adapted quite quickly. It's just that the seawater is a bit cold, and my hands and feet feel freezing."
The seawater was freezing cold at this time, and it was fortunate that there were many of them, otherwise they would not have dared to go into the water if there were only one or two people.
If you experience a leg cramp, you won't even be able to call for help.
We encountered the first shipwreck, and then a few more. However, there were very few Chinese shipwrecks here; most belonged to other countries. Moreover, these shipwrecks were quite old and didn't contain anything of value.
Later, they also learned to distinguish between them. They stopped going down to salvage the smaller boats and only salvaged the larger boats or those with relatively intact surfaces.
Another boat was salvaged, and the group emerged from the water and boarded their own boats.
After changing her clothes, Lin Chuchu began to examine the items from the sunken ship in her spatial storage while waiting for her meal.
Lin Chuchu took out several boxes, which contained some well-preserved pearl necklaces and gold and silver jewelry.
Liu Xiaonuan picked up a bead that looked like a luminous pearl.
"Why do these goods look like they were made in China?"
"Were our ancestors able to travel around the world so early on?"
This place is very far from China. Logically speaking, ancient merchant ships shouldn't have been able to get here.
Not only Liu Xiaonuan was curious, but everyone else was also very curious.
Lin Chuchu shook her head. "Perhaps our ancestors arrived in other countries first, and then came via other routes."
She wasn't one of those archaeologists, nor did she know which dynasty the ship belonged to, but judging from its size, it must have been from an even more ancient dynasty.
After everyone had played with the gold and silver jewelry for a while, Lin Chuchu sent all of them back to China.
However, those ships were never brought back; they took up space and were of little use.
That evening, everyone planned to have hot pot. In the past two days, Team Leader Qin and the others had finally recovered a bit and were able to eat meat again.
In the ship's kitchen, two tables were set up, with steaming pots on them.
They eat much better food outside than at home, and they can eat meat at every meal if they want.
It suddenly started raining outside, the rain pattering against the window, making quite a loud noise.
Lin Chuchu had almost finished eating and walked over out of curiosity. At that moment, there was a thunderstorm outside, with even lightning.
"Do you think it would be better to use a larger ship in this kind of weather?"
Their ship is actually quite large, big enough to hold 200 people, but it's still a bit smaller than a normal large ship.
Mu Chen also saw the situation outside. "It doesn't seem appropriate to change it now. It would be bad if something happened during the boat transfer."
Lin Chuchu nodded, indicating her understanding.
Soon, the rain outside was pouring down so hard it was almost steaming, and they furled the sails.
"Sigh, we won't be able to get a good night's sleep again tonight."
With such heavy rain, the waves must be huge; it's no wonder I get carsick.
"Don't any of you play mahjong all night? Playing mahjong might help."
"I'll try it."
"Me too."
Instantly, several people raised their hands.
They started playing mahjong right there in the driver's cab.
They split into two groups, while the others either watched from the sidelines, occasionally offering suggestions, or returned to their rooms to rest.
Lin Chuchu felt that playing mahjong on such a rocking boat would only make her more seasick, so she wanted to go back to her room.
The torrential rain only lasted one night.
Someone comes to relieve us, but we still have to keep the boat running.
People who stayed up all night should go back to sleep.
While everyone was eating breakfast, suddenly, a soldier ran out of the driver's cab.
"Captain, there are people in the sea not far ahead."
"Someone's there? Are they fishermen from another country? Let's go around them!"
Team Leader Qin said indifferently, "Although this is international waters, encountering people from other countries can still be troublesome."
"No, that person was floating on the log, like a survivor of a shipwreck."
Upon hearing this, Captain Qin immediately put down his chopsticks and went to the driver's seat.
Looking out through the observation port in the cockpit, there really was a person floating on the sea.
"Captain, should we rescue them?"
They were soldiers, and their first reaction upon seeing survivors was to save them.
But what happens after you save them?
Could they possibly get people onto land?
After a moment's hesitation, Captain Qin nodded, "Save them!"
The team members turned and ran, calling for help.
"Have Comrade Lin bring out some small boats. After the people are rescued, let them leave in the small boats."
"Yes, Captain."
The person who had already run far away responded.
The people in the cafeteria ate faster, knowing that they would definitely have a task soon.
Knowing that a rescue was needed, everyone came to the deck and searched for survivors with binoculars.
The others took small boats and headed towards the survivors they had previously discovered.
Soon, the boat reached the vicinity of the survivor, a dark-faced man lying face down on a wooden plank, motionless. It was unclear whether he was still alive.
A member of the group stepped forward and touched his neck.
Finally, he shook his head and said, "Dead, not breathing."
