Chapter 15 Black Tide Floating Coffin (Part 2)

Although the black tide that surged from the bottom of the sea was large, it would soon disappear. We looked on the boat for a long time and wanted to find the corpse of the big cuttlefish that Uncle Ming mentioned. Even if we could not take it back with our boat, it would be good to open our eyes. As a result, we really found that there was a white object floating on the sea in the distance. From a distance, I felt that it was quite big. I quickly asked the boss of the boat Ruan Hei to get the boat closer. Uncle Ming had already grabbed the telescope and looked over: "I'm throwing his mother to black... It's so amazing... It's not a dead fish... It seems that there is a coffin floating on the sea... It's white..."

I thought I had heard it wrong. How could a white coffin float on the sea? I was about to find Uncle Ming to ask for a telescope to see it, but at this time the "trident" was approaching and getting closer and closer to the white object. It could be seen clearly with the naked eye. There was indeed a white stone coffin on the sea surging with the ocean currents. Our group of people had seen countless coffins, and we would never be able to read it wrong with our eyes.

When the ship approached, it was even more realistic. The rectangular coffin was flat and angular, with a large size, which was different from ordinary sarcophagus. It was not a problem to hold two or three zongzi inside. The surface was finely carved, and some places were covered with gray-white mottled coral polyps. Several thick chains fixed the sarcophagus, which were tightly closed. The chains covered with water rust tied together a thing under the sea. The sarcophagus rose and fell, and there was a black object larger than the four eight immortals tabletops. It was with this thing that supported it that the sarcophagus did not sink to the bottom of the sea.

Maybe this thing was rushed to the sea from the bottom of the sea by a water dragon. Seeing the strangeness, it was unprecedented in my life. I wanted to take out this thing. Before I could speak, I heard someone behind me about to prepare a crane arm to take out the "green head" sent by the Dragon Prince. It turned out that at some point, the fat man woke up from alcohol and saw everyone discovering a floating coffin in the sea. If there was a coffin, there must be rice dumplings and bright tools inside. In his ecstasy, he immediately revealed his true face and wanted to make trouble.

The boat boss Ruan Hei quickly dissuaded the fat man: "Our salvage team is going to be egg-minister. Going to the coral spiral to pick eggs, don't make any trouble. Who can tell the matter in the sea clearly? Maybe there are monsters locked in this coffin, so we shouldn't cause trouble. Moreover, if there is a coffin on board, it's too unlucky. I'm afraid something will happen. I think we can't see it. Anyway, we won't suffer any losses if we don't catch it. Why bother causing trouble?"

Before the fat man could speak, Uncle Ming said to Ruan Hei for him: "Oh, I said Lao Ruan, you don't know this fat man too much. Who is this fat man? If he doesn't take advantage of it, he thinks he is at a disadvantage. I think we will follow him and take out the green head in the sea to see. Otherwise, if he feels unhappy, it will be a big trouble on our ship..."

In fact, Uncle Ming was more anxious than Fatty to salvage the sarcophagus onto the boat, and used the steps in Ruan Hei's words to push the responsibility to Fatty. When the fat man heard that the Hong Kong farmers dared to ruin his glorious image in the minds of the general public, he suddenly became annoyed and rolled up his sleeves and swung his fists and wanted to beat someone up.

I quickly stopped them: "Uncle Ming, you are really looking for trouble. Even if you want to slander Fatty Wang, you should plan in a secret room and ignite it at the grassroots level. How can you talk about it in person? Isn't this equivalent to exposing your goal? It can be seen that you have never experienced the Cultural Revolution, you really haven't understood the essence and laws of struggle. When you go back, I will teach you the essence of this, fight against the sky, fight against the earth, fight against people, and have endless fun, but the truth here is too deep, and you may not be able to understand it even if you are a bad person... And fat man, you are the same. Why are you so old? Uncle Ming?

How can we be tempted with him? We must follow the principle of equality in the face of truth. We must convince people with reason in everything. We must reason no matter what. In the future, he will say that you don’t like to listen to. You can reason with him first, or even scold him. It’s nothing to scold him. Mr. Lu Xun is anxious and even scolds him. If necessary, he can even put a hat on him. But you must not hit him. If you really want to beat him, you have to find an occasion where no one is going to beat him. In this way, we won’t be embarrassed. You say we are all members of the same team. If you beat him in front of everyone, should we stop him or not?”

Uncle Ming might have said it for a moment, but when he saw the fat man glaring, he suddenly became sleepy and wanted to jump into the sea to hide. He had to act regretful and kept getting close to the fat man, claiming that when he saw "Qingtou" just now, he was too excited and the schizophrenia recurred, and he didn't even know what he said.

At this time, Shirley Yang said to me: "If you can't get entangled, the coffin will float away with the sea." After she reminded me, I quickly asked Gu Cai to prepare the hook. Fatty, Uncle Ming went to clean the rear deck. There was only a large space on the rear deck on the ship. Duoling connected the water pipe to wash away the dirty things on the stone coffin.

Everyone acted separately, and after a lot of work, they finally hung up the stone coffin in the sea, and hung it on the stern of the boat. It turned out that the sarcophagus was locked with a huge turtle skeleton. Duoling and Guchai both grew up in a hard working environment. They were good at working and were very familiar with the behavior on the boat. Without any more instructions, they turned on the water dragon and washed away the seaweed and dirty on the stone coffin with black water flow.

The water flowed everywhere, and some details on the side of the white stone coffin were gradually revealed, with many strange symbols engraved in densely. Shirley Yang had extraordinary vision. Although the stone coffin was still hanging in the air, she had already discovered something: "It seems to be carved with the pattern of the Book of Changes on it. Lao Hu, do you know the hexagrams, hurry up and see what it is?"

Uncle Ming waved his hand to give the signal, Ruan Hei took back the hook. As he gradually approached, many gossip figures appeared on the stone coffin, but there were too many gray-white coral cocoons, and not many parts could be seen clearly. Everyone hurriedly unloaded it on the back deck. There was still a complete corpse in the turtle shell, and its body had not yet melted, and it seemed that it had not been dead for too long. However, judging by the appearance of the stone coffin, it was at least a few thousand years old. As the saying goes, "a thousand-year-old turtle, a ten-year-old turtle". The lifespan of the turtle is far beyond that of other creatures. I don't know how many years the giant turtle lived with the stone coffin before he died.
