Chapter 855: Treasure Hunt under the Sea
"Once we've finished our work, let's go over there and take a look. I'm curious." Gu Ning said.
"Okay," Shen Zhaoxuan responded. He didn't think there was anything inappropriate. The ancient buildings over there were indeed interesting.
The cruise ship stopped on the sea, and Shen Zhaoxuan said, "It's in this area, but we're not sure of the exact location. We can only go down and look for it. The radius should not be more than 20 meters."
"It's okay, let's go down and look for it." Gu Ning said.
Then, Shen Zhaoxuan's friends brought a diving suit and oxygen tank. Although Gu Ning was very smart and could move freely on the seabed without an oxygen mask and without being disturbed by the sea water, he still put them on to avoid other troubles.
After all, going to the sea is not a short thing. Even if she can't get close to the sunken ship, or there is nothing on the sunken ship, they need to go back and forth and delay for at least an hour. If there is something on the ship, they still need to take it, which will delay them even more.
A person can only survive for a few minutes at most on the seabed without equipment or oxygen.
Only four sets of diving suits were prepared, because only four people were needed to go down, and someone was needed on top to hold the rope so that they could be pulled back if anything went wrong.
Each person has a camera installed on them so that those above can know what is happening below and whether they are safe.
The people who went into the water were Gu Ning, Shen Zhaoxuan, Zhao Jiangquan and Gao Yi.
Because Li Maosong and Sun Chao are old, although they are in good physical condition, it is still difficult for them to go into the sea with weights. One of Shen Zhaoxuan's friends had to control the rope for Shen Zhaoxuan, and the other had to control the cruise ship, so Shen Zhaoxuan went down.
Qiao Ya controlled Gu Ning's rope, while Guo Yi Yang controlled Gao Yi's rope.
Gu Ning and several others jumped into the sea and gradually sank. Although the sinking speed was not slow, it took more than ten minutes before they reached the bottom.
It was very dark under the sea, and with all kinds of reefs, corals, seaweed, and a variety of fish, visibility was only a few meters. But for Gu Ning, it was not an obstacle. With Yu Tong, she could directly penetrate the reefs and seaweed, and visibility of dozens of meters was no problem.
Although Shen Zhaoxuan had seen the ship, he was unable to determine the exact location of the shipwreck. He only knew its approximate location, which narrowed the scope a lot.
But, it’s just around here.
Gu Ning had the ability to see through things, so with just a glance he could see the location of the shipwreck, which was about ten meters to their right.
The sunken ship is very large, but it has been severely damaged. There are two floors of cabins, but now only one is left, and it is in tatters.
There were a dozen mahogany boxes in the cabin, some of which were broken and some porcelain was scattered all over the floor.
Gu Ning looked through the other boxes again. Two of them were filled with clothes, one contained some cloth, one contained wet books and scrolls, one contained guns, one contained gold bars, one contained jade and various jewelries, one contained various porcelains, and the other two contained various antiques.
These antiques are not from one period, but from many periods. It seems that Marshal Hu is also a collector! Because they couldn't speak at the bottom of the sea, Gu Ning had to gesture to everyone and asked them to go over there.
Because they were searching blindly now, so Gu Ning asked them to go over there. He didn't think that Gu Ning had seen it, but no matter where they went to search for a hundred years, the four of them had to act together and could not separate.
After walking about ten or twenty meters, they saw the sunken ship. They were a little surprised, but did not think much about it, because they were originally searching blindly, so they thought it was just a coincidence.
Several people stopped five meters away from the sunken ship and looked at Gu Ning.
Li Maosong and Gao Yi thought that Gu Ning had a way, while Shen Zhaoxuan wanted to see if Gu Ning had any solution. Anyway, he had no solution because he had already done it himself.
Gu Ning made a gesture to Gao Yi, asking him to go over and try. Gao Yi understood and went over.
However, he could only advance three meters. When there was still two meters to go, Gao Yi could not get any closer. Feeling an impact on his body, Gao Yi was unable to resist and was forced to retreat.
However, when Gao Yi retreated, Gu Ning's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a figure suddenly appear on the boat, a young man in military uniform, his face pale and colorless, without any expression.
With just one glance, Gu Ning knew that the other person was a ghost, not a human.
Since it is a ghost, Gao Yi and others naturally cannot see it.
The few people were not surprised to see Gao Yi was also sent back, but they no longer held out any hope.
At this time, Gu Ning gestured for them to stand here and she would go over, and no one could go over without her approval.
Several people nodded in agreement.
When Gu Ning walked over, his eyes were fixed on the male ghost on the boat. Feeling Gu Ning's sincere gaze, the male ghost stiffened and looked at Gu Ning with a frown.
He suspected that she saw him, but he didn't believe that a human could see him. Perhaps, the other party's eyes just happened to be in his position! When Gu Ning approached, the male ghost immediately reacted and tried to push Gu Ning away. However, when he made a move, Gu Ning also made a move and directly grabbed his hand.
The male ghost was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief: "You can actually see me and catch me."
Even though the facts were right in front of him, the male ghost still found it unbelievable.
Unable to speak, Gu Ning just nodded at him.
Despite this, the male ghost knew that Gu Ning and the others had ulterior motives, so he immediately fought back.
Gu Ning fought with him. Although his reaction was not as quick because of the weight of the oxygen tank, it was still enough to deal with the male ghost. It was just that he was not able to subdue the male ghost easily and quickly.
When Shen Zhaoxuan and the others saw Gu Ning fighting alone, as if he was fighting with someone, they were all shocked and confused, not knowing what Gu Ning was doing.
The male ghost was forced back step by step by Gu Ning, and Gu Ning entered the sunken ship step by step. Seeing this, Shen Zhaoxuan and others were delighted and successfully entered.
Shen Zhaoxuan moved and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Gao Yi. Gu Ning had just indicated that they could not go in until she let them in.
Shen Zhaoxuan was not unhappy, and he knew that he was a little impulsive, so he calmed down.
After Gu Ning forced the male ghost into the cabin, he was able to suppress him. However, the other party was a ghost after all, and he would not be killed without being injured. If he wanted to subdue him completely, he would either have to surrender himself or be reduced to ashes.
Gu Ning knew that there was only one way to turn ghosts into ashes, and that was to burn them with fire, but this was under the sea, so this method was simply not feasible.
