The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 444 - 258: Unexpected Gain: Bronze Coffin (Subscribe Please)_2

He himself never expected that one day he would fish this thing up.

His mood at this moment was extremely excited and he seemed thrilled.

"Fang Hao, do you know what this is?"

Xiao Pang was the first to ask Fang Hao.

Right now on the boat, the one with the most authority to speak was Fang Hao, because he had another identity, that of a specially-appointed consultant for the National Cultural Relics Bureau, and he was an expert in this field.

You could say he was qualified.

If even Fang Hao didn’t understand, then the others would understand even less.

When Xiao Pang fished up this bronze coffin, Fang Hao also became somewhat interested.

Xiao Pang being able to fish this up also exceeded his expectations.

And when he got closer to the cover of this bronze coffin, Fang Hao’s Mechanical Eye activated and he saw information about this bronze coffin.

[Bronze Coffin Cover]

[Son of Lu King...]

This bronze coffin was the coffin of the son of Lu King.

He was a prince.

It seems the origin of this bronze coffin is indeed not simple.

However, this is only a cover, so Fang Hao could not get much detail, only knowing that this is a coffin of a prince’s son.

As for… why it was fished up here, it is not yet very clear. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"This is a prince’s son’s coffin; he was of the royal family."

"Doesn’t that mean, there could possibly be a grand undersea tomb of a prince below?" Xiao Pang’s eyes lit up immediately, thinking of this possibility.

"That’s possible," Fang Hao nodded and did not rule out this possibility.

"So what do we do now?"

"Should we excavate this ancient tomb?"

Xiao Pang, excited after knowing about the prince’s son’s coffin cover, now couldn’t wait to go down.

But… Fang Hao quickly threw cold water on his excitement.

"This is at the seabed, do you have a way to go down?"

Fang Hao almost gave him a disapproving look.

What was this kid thinking.

This is at sea, and if there is an undersea grand tomb below, wanting to excavate it certainly wouldn’t be easy.

With the current technological reserves, it might not necessarily be possible to excavate it intact.

And... it’s not even certain whether there is an undersea tomb or not.

It could just be wishful thinking.

If the coffin cover actually drifted from somewhere else, nobody would know.

Undersea currents can take away airplane wreckage and submarine parts, let alone just a coffin cover.

"Eh, Fang Hao, your fishing rod is moving too."

At this moment, a Coast Guard called out to remind Fang Hao.

Fang Hao immediately turned his head to look, and saw that his fishing rod seemed to be catching something as it bent into an arc.

He’d caught something.

Fang Hao didn’t bother speaking to Xiao Pang further, and immediately went back to grab his fishing rod.

Wow.

This thing wasn’t very heavy, weighing probably a few hundred pounds.

Much lighter than what he’d caught before.

With just this much weight, Fang Hao could easily pull it up.

He wasn’t like Xiao Pang.

Xiao Pang was a normal person, so even fishing up things weighing dozens of pounds could take a lot of effort.

But Fang Hao was different, he had exceeded human limitations and surpassed the physical limits of the body.

A few hundred pounds, to him, was like an ordinary person holding something weighing just a few ounces.

Almost weightless.

He quickly fished the item up.

When he pulled the item out, everyone was almost stunned.

Oh my.

This is making a pair.

The item Fang Hao fished up was none other than the base of the bronze coffin.

Together with Xiao Pang’s cover, it made a complete bronze coffin.

The materials and size were the same; they were a matching set.

But this time, luckily there was nothing inside the coffin, it was empty with no corpse, which allowed Fang Hao to breathe a sigh of relief.

This was normal.

The bronze coffin was opened, it would be strange if there were still a body inside.

Xiao Pang saw the base of the bronze coffin that Fang Hao had fished up and also blinked his eyes.

This is too coincidental.

Just right for the two of them to make up a coffin.

"Fishing up a coffin..." someone frowned, feeling that catching a coffin was not a good sign.

But it was quickly denied by others.

"Seeing the coffin and getting rich."

"Getting promoted and rich, this is a good omen."

Many people actually felt it was a good sign, indicating that good things might happen later.

Fang Hao and Xiao Pang suddenly fishing up a bronze coffin caught Captain Han’s attention.

After all, it is a cultural relic, though the item is a coffin... but it also means there might be a large tomb underneath.

"Let’s explore down below first."

Captain Han instructed to send down underwater robots including Fang Hao deploying his own mini submersible for exploration.

In this way, they wouldn’t need to go down themselves.

Let the machines explore first.

It won’t take too much time anyway.

Only when the situation here is clear will he be able to report to the higher authorities.

As for what decisions are to be made afterwards, the higher-ups will decide on their own.

The feed was sent back, showcasing these scenes.

As the submersibles descended, the images from the ocean depths were transmitted back.

"This is..."

When they saw the undersea images, everyone was stunned by what was under the sea.

Because they saw numerous shipwrecks.

These shipwrecks were mostly wooden structures, large in construction, crucially, there was more than one.

"An underwater shipwreck burial site."

Fang Hao quickly figured out what it was.

This underwater burial site was actually made using shipwrecks, not by people going under the sea to dig a grave.

That would be unrealistic.

With the technology of that time, people couldn’t reach such deep sea levels.

Unlike now, with diving suits and various machines and equipment.

But that doesn’t mean there was no way to build underwater tombs; their method was to use ships, construct them on the surface, then let these completed ships sink to the seafloor.

Thus, the underwater tomb was created.

And such an underwater tomb, once completed, is usually hard to discover.

After all, the ocean is so vast, who has the capacity to find these tombs?

It’s just... this time Fang Hao and Xiao Pang were so lucky to have fished up the bronze coffin, which led to the discovery of this underwater tomb.

This underground burial site is not simple, it’s not just one shipwreck, but several forming a large scale.

One can imagine, the identity of Lu King is not simple for him to be so extravagant.

It’s just that it’s still unknown whether it’s Lu King’s own tomb or just his child’s.

"There are traces of an explosion over there."

Soon they saw traces of an explosion near one of the shipwrecks.

The shipwreck was blasted in half, scattering numerous burial objects and some stone sculptures around.

Some of the stone sculptures were also destroyed by the explosion, shattered into several pieces.

"This... seems like traces of a torpedo explosion."

"Couldn’t have been the explosion of a torpedo from an Ohio Nuclear Submarine, could it?"

Someone connected the two incidents.

And it did seem to be exactly that.

Perhaps it was also because of this explosion that the bronze coffin was blasted out.

The underwater robots are after all quite limited, many things are unclear, and some things are not easy to observe.

But they have roughly grasped the situation.

There is indeed a large tomb below, an underwater burial site.

The construction features of this burial site are also special, made using shipwrecks.

The person who proposed this method of building tombs was truly talented; only he could have thought of this method.

It was just by chance, due to luck, that Fang Hao and his team discovered it.

"The structure of these shipwrecks, they appear to be in the style of the Ming Dynasty."

Fang Hao made some judgments, he understands this stuff better than others.

As for Lu King... in ancient times, many were titled as such, and it’s not easy to determine who it was right away.

More clues are needed to discern accurately.

Captain Han also understood the value of this large tomb and likewise needed to report the situation here first.

Regardless of the handling, more people will definitely be required to support this site in the future.
