Chapter 152 The Pearl of the Southern Dragon
I added the weight of Sun Fuyuan and the two of us, but neither of them could open the door.I thought to myself that the captain's room is different, and the Ande doors are all anti-theft doors.But the quality of this anti-theft door is a bit too good, even if the safe has been soaked in seawater for so many years, it should be rotten.I originally wanted to break through the door with a dagger after taking a break, but at this moment Alina pulled me aside and motioned me to turn off the flashlight.Although I was a little strange, I did it anyway.The three diving flashlights were turned off, and the whole space was once again plunged into darkness.At this time, I noticed that there was still a little glimmer of light emerging from the darkness.And the light source turned out to come from inside the captain's cabin.

My heart suddenly tightened, and I can be sure that the light source is definitely inside.But here is a shipwreck that has been sleeping on the bottom of the sea for nearly a thousand years. The ancient light sources are all burning. Even if there are really any ten thousand year candles, it is impossible to burn in the water.Almost at the same time, Sun Fuyuan also entered the fighting state, and our first reaction was that there were other people inside.Sun Dasheng and the others entered from the bilge, and it was impossible to come up so quickly, so who could it be?We don't believe that by coincidence, we will meet another organization that comes here to salvage overseas like us.The only possibility is to exorcise corpses.We were attacked by the exorcists once along the way, but that time the attack was a bit innocuous. God knows if the exorcists will stop there and continue to follow us quietly.Compared with living people, the super zongzi of the corpse group has a much greater advantage in the water.

The three of us just waited quietly outside the door, wanting to hear if there was any sound inside.But after listening for a long time, I didn't hear any movement. I couldn't hold back my temper, so I leaned over quietly and pierced a hole in the door with a dagger.All of a sudden, the light from inside came over.I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this light.This turned out to be a kind of shadow.Shade light is our general classification of a type of light source, which can generally be understood as a cold light source.However, unlike fluorescent lamps and LED lamps, this word comes from ancient times. In ancient times, only fluorescent light and luminous light could be called cold light sources.The so-called luminous light is the light of night pearls. The pearls condensed from the essence of the old clam swallowed the heaven and the earth are naturally bright. This kind of light source is extremely precious and suitable for burial in ancient tombs.Firstly, the effect of the light source is long-lasting, and because the body itself is yin, holding a century-old South China Sea Dragon Ball in the mouth of the deceased can protect the body from corruption and be used to preserve the face.

I had no idea that the light source inside would be something like this.Putting my eyes on the hole and looking inside, I saw a night pearl the size of two fists floating with a soft halo inside, and it was supported by an old clam the size of a minivan.It was the clamshell that blocked the door.Sun Fuyuan and Elina also leaned over to look inside, and then they all showed shocked expressions.Such a luminous pearl is definitely priceless outside.For this old clam to appear in the boat, it must be at least as old as the boat for a thousand years.Presumably, only the thousands of years of accumulation and the dragon spirit of Guixu in the South China Sea could nourish such a treasure.We all looked at it a little stupidly, and there was no other action for a while.

It took us a long time to recover from the shock, and Sun Fuyuan and I used diving knives to tear down the door together.The shells of old clams almost blocked the entire doorway, and we barely squeezed through.Looking at this luminous pearl head-on at this time, the feeling of shock is even heavier.Sun Fuyuan asked me with gestures, is this the secret treasure we are looking for?I shook my head. Although this thing is a treasure, considering that it happened more than 1000 years ago. More than 1000 years ago, this luminous pearl was just a grain of sand.The secret treasure we are looking for should be something else.Looking at this luminous pearl, we were a little moved. The Yaolong Company, Diaolong Tianguan, and Mudao Taibao are simply a bunch of tomb robbers.Adventure and greed for wealth are the nature of tomb robbers. As the saying goes, thieves never leave empty space. We really have no reason to leave such treasures alone.

Alina reached out to take it, but I stopped her.This kind of old clam has been refined for thousands of years, how could it be allowed to take away its treasures.This place must be a treasure hole in the remaining veins of the South Dragon, the old clam will open its shell day and night to absorb the air of the South Dragon Sea, but once it feels that someone wants to take the night pearl, it will close the clam shell immediately. The snoopers were pinched to death.I don't know what methods the Tomb Dao Taibao has to deal with this kind of thing, but Diaolong Tianguan has special methods.I swam around the old clam and arranged a formation based on the Eight Diagrams.Directly mobilizing the Nanlonghai Qi, the meat of the old clam began to bulge like goosebumps when the formation was running.If you have trypophobia, you can't bear to watch this kind of stuff.But immediately after, I saw blood streaks appearing in the meat inside, and finally a little blood came out from the pimple, and the blood filled the sea water to form bursts of red mist.

Right now, I gestured to Sun Fuyuan.Sun Fuyuan immediately rushed over and picked up Ye Mingzhu with his hands.The old clam's movements were obviously slow, and it took four or five seconds after the orb was taken away to slowly close the clam shell.However, it can be seen that some of the wooden boards that were clamped in it with great force were directly added with mud-like things. One can imagine what it would be like if hands and feet were clamped inside.Fortunately, there was no danger, this time it was a big profit!The three of us carefully surrounded the night pearls. Gold and jewelry are as attractive to humans as flames are to moths. This is human instinct.Through this light, we can see the unconcealed excitement on each other's faces.I ended up packing the Night Pearl in a diving carrying bag.This kind of carrying bag is opaque, so it's very suitable for holding this kind of orb, otherwise, the aura of this kind of jewel is likely to attract strange fish in the sea.

This unexpected joy felt like a good start.After putting away the night pearl, we began to search the captain's cabin again. I have to say that the captain's cabin is different, far from what those crew quarters can compare with.About 40 square meters of space, with independent tables and beds.On the other side should be something like a nautical chart, but it is dilapidated and unusable.Except for the place occupied by the old clam, the rest of the space is empty.We went to find that table first. Generally speaking, if there is any treasure, it should be placed in this kind of place.There are some books scattered around, which seem to be logbooks.But I can't see it anymore, and it will scatter when I touch it with my hand.Open the drawer inside, only to see a silver shadow rushing out.We were all startled, and we all dodged to avoid it.

The silver shadow was extremely fast, and shot out in the blink of an eye.All of a sudden it nailed to the clamshell behind us.We couldn't help but gasp when we took a closer look, the silver shadow was nothing but the piranha flying fish that caused our heavy casualties that time.The fish shot out like a silver sword, biting the old clam shell with its teeth like a knife.You can see a clear mark left on it.It is conceivable that it would be absolutely uncomfortable if it bites us all at once.But missing us is not the point of the problem, the point is how could such a man-eating flying fish suddenly appear in such a place where everything is extinct.I quickly thought of the previous question - why there are no corpses here.The man-eating flying fish in front of him seemed to be an explanation. It was conceivable that there were hundreds of corpses here, but when a wave of man-eating flying fish passed by here, they passed by like locusts, and everywhere they went was slaughtered.All the corpses were eaten away by them, leaving no trace.Thinking about the Trident, the bones of his companions were eaten in the blink of an eye.Then as long as there are a few hundred of these man-eating flying fish, they can completely cover the bodies of everyone here.

At this time, although there is only one, it is a reminder that there are still such piranhas nearby.Or, maybe this is the lair of the piranha flying fish.They just went out to hunt together, and they may come back at any time, and it is even possible that Sun Dasheng and the others have already encountered groups of such piranha flying fish.
