Chapter 454 (1/2)
The bottom of the deep sea is silent, and even the sea is still. Ning Tao walked on the rocks and sands at the bottom of the sea. He felt like walking in the time and space of the extinct past. It seemed that he was the only one left in the whole world.
However, compared with the loneliness when reciting the third sentence of your Sutra, ”the sea of bitterness is boundless, and a ping floats alone”, this loneliness is nothing to mention. He can easily adapt to the environment here without reciting this sentence.
The cave mentioned by Yang Sheng has not been found yet, but the beam of the refined tactical flashlight accidentally shines on a sunken ship. It is probably an ancient merchant ship. The anchor is covered with rust, and the broken deck is covered with seaweed. Some deep-sea fish swim in the seaweed and cabin. When they are illuminated, they escape like a frightened bird.
Ning Tao approached the sunken ship and illuminated a hole in the hull with a refined tactical flashlight. Behind the hole was a cabin, in which lay several mossy bones. Several small deep-sea fish were illuminated by the light beam, fled quickly and hid in the lower cabin.
As a result, it was precisely because of the hiding of these small fish that Ning Tao took a refined tactical flashlight and saw a lot of ceramic fragments and several boxes that looked quite intact.
Ning Tao was close to the cabin at the bottom. Under the action of the heavenly treasure magic clothes, the sea water in front of him retreated automatically, revealing the rotten hull covered with moss. He pushed it up with one hand, and the wooden hull in front of him suddenly collapsed, the rotten wood fell to the ground, and a hole that could be drilled into appeared in front of him.
Ning Tao slipped into the cat's waist.
There are colored fragments in the pile of ceramic fragments. The colors are mainly yellow, blue and white. Because there is no contact with the air, it seems that the color still maintains a certain bright degree.
Ning Tao's heart moved: ”are these ceramics Tang tricolor? Is this a merchant ship of the Tang Dynasty?”
There are only a few of the three colors of the Tang Dynasty, each of which is priceless. Unfortunately, if these ceramics were all Tang tri colored, it would be meaningless. They were all broken.
This is just a guess. In Ning Tao's historical knowledge, Tang Sancai is a burial object of the upper class, which is not allowed to be used by ordinary people. If this is a tomb, nine out of ten of these colored ceramic fragments are Tang tri colored, but they are not so sure in a sunken ship.
Ning Tao's eyes soon moved to a well preserved box. He walked to a box. There is an iron lock on the box, but it has almost rusted. He stretched out his hand and broke it twice. It was easy to break the iron lock. Then he took off the lid of the box.
The box was full of a large box of coins, which had also rusted into a ball. On the surface of several pieces, the words ”Kaiyuan Tongbao” can be seen vaguely.
Kaiyuan Tongbao is a coin of the Tang Dynasty. The sunken ship is really a sunken ship of the Tang Dynasty.
Unfortunately, these precious cultural relics have been almost rusted. Ning Tao tried to grab one, but picked up a big ball, and then fell down like rust flour.
Ning Tao then opened another three boxes, one of which contained cloth and looked like silk, but all of them were broken when Ning Tao opened the box. The second box is full of bamboo slips, which are broken as soon as they are opened. Even if it's not broken, the words on the bamboo can't be recognized. The third box contains several pieces of porcelain, including porcelain bottles and porcelain plates. Perhaps it is because there are fillers in the box when the ship sank to avoid collision, so these pieces of porcelain are well preserved.
Ning Tao carefully picked up a porcelain vase and wiped away the dirt on the surface with his hand, revealing the crystal clear porcelain surface immediately. He turned the bottom of the bottle over, with the words ”Yue Kiln imperial control” on it.
Ning Tao doesn't study antiques, but he understands the meaning of the word ”imperial control”. It's Royal stuff, and royal stuff is naturally the best.
Ning Tao smiled at the corners of his mouth. Now it is the time of war. Both heihuo company and Chuangshi biotechnology company are not short of money. He is the poorest of the three parties. These Tang dynasty ceramics are auctioned. At least they have to sell for hundreds of millions? Not long ago, a chicken jar cup during the reign of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty sold at a sky high price of more than 200 million, not to mention the Royal Porcelain of the Tang Dynasty. No wonder they are packed in boxes, which is enough to prove that these porcelain pieces have high value in ancient times!
This is a completely unexpected harvest. If he hadn't come here to find real ambergris, Ning Tao wouldn't have found the sunken ship, let alone these precious porcelain.
There are four pieces of porcelain, two plates and two porcelain bottles. It feels like a special match.
Ning Tao carefully put the two plates into the small medicine box, then stuffed a porcelain bottle into his clothes, holding one in his hand, ready to leave the wreck. Just then, a closed hatch came into his sight.
Is there any baby?
Ning Tao moved in his heart and walked over. The rotten board was broken under his feet. He walked carefully, but sometimes he would inevitably fall into it.
There was no lock on the hatch, but the rotating shaft was broken. Ning Tao stretched out his hand and pushed, and the whole door collapsed, revealing the space behind.
Automatic avoidance of seawater.
The beam of the refined tactical flashlight shone in, and the scenery in the cabin appeared.
