Gu Anrou, who had never suffered from seasickness, felt dizzy and weak. She knelt on the ground and vomited violently.
This was simply a test of life and death, testing whether they were qualified to obtain the sunken ship treasure beneath the whirlpool.
By the time the boat finally sailed past the eye of the whirlpool, everyone on the fishing boat was so dizzy and weak that they collapsed heavily on the deck.
Huang Tonghai lay on the bow of the boat, vomiting violently into the sea. His face turned red from the effort, and tears streamed down his face.
It was truly terrifying. Standing on the boat, one could feel the powerful force of weightlessness.
He never wanted to experience this feeling again in his life!
When the boat was more than 50 meters away from the eye of the whirlpool, the influence of the whirlpool on them gradually subsided.
Huang Tonghai propped himself up and took out his compass and map, accurately pointing out the specific location on the map.
"The location is right here. As long as we put on our diving suits and dive straight down, we can get the treasure."
Lao Hong, having experienced the terrifying whirlpool just now, was having second thoughts. He frowned and looked at Huang Tonghai.
"Are you sure there's treasure under the whirlpool?"
If they risked their lives and came up empty - handed, it would be a huge laughingstock.
Huang Tonghai glared at Lao Hong, his face full of annoyance. "This is the location left by my ancestors. Do you think my ancestors would lie to me?"
"I've had someone investigate. This sunken ship has never been salvaged. There must be treasure in it!"
Seeing Huang Tonghai's certainty, Lao Hong didn't say anything more. He told Xiao Hong to get the diving suits from the cabin.
These diving suits were the ones they wore when they went fishing for sea urchins. Naturally, they were covered in the smell of fish and dirty mud.
The smell was so foul and pungent that Gu Anrou was nauseated and vomited again.
Xiao Hong was unhappy to see Gu Anrou's disgusted expression. He simply threw the diving suit beside Gu Anrou, scaring her into screaming and wanting to curse.
"What are you doing! Can't you see I'm standing here!"
She already couldn't stand the smell of fish. Wasn't Xiao Hong deliberately picking on her!
"Okay, stop arguing!"
Huang Tonghai came out to mediate. Without any sign of disgust, he put on the diving suit and urged Gu Anrou's uncle to hurry up.
"Put on your clothes quickly. We're going into the sea soon."
Gu Anrou immediately voted against it. "I don't want to wear such a smelly and dirty suit!"
Hearing that the girl was still being so picky at this moment, Huang Tonghai wasn't going to indulge her.
"Gu Anrou, if you don't want to wear it, you can't go down, and I won't share the money with you."
Hearing this, Gu Anrou was immediately unwilling. Thinking that she couldn't come all this way and risk her life for nothing, she had to force herself to put on the diving suit despite the nausea.
On the bow of the yacht, Xu Qingqing held a telescope and saw several people jump into the sea one after another. She urged the bodyguard driving the boat to hurry up.
"This should be the location where they speculated the sunken ship is. Let's go and stop them quickly!"
Xu Qingqing turned to Wang Lide and made a suggestion. Wang Lide, an experienced man, waved his hand and told Xu Qingqing to wait.
"Even if they go down, they may not be able to salvage the sunken ship. If the location is wrong, they'll have to search again. Let's wait and see."
Hearing this, Xu Qingqing realized she had been thoughtless and nodded.
"Okay."
Huang Tonghai and the others dived deeper and deeper. When they reached about 10 meters underwater, Gu Anrou couldn't take it anymore and swam back up.
After Gu Anrou surfaced, her uncle, who also couldn't bear it, followed suit.
They were just ordinary people who had never tried diving before. It was already remarkable that they could dive more than ten meters.
Huang Tonghai followed the Hong father - son duo and dived more than 20 meters. He vaguely saw the wreckage of the sunken ship in the sea.
Corals had grown on the ship's hull, which had been rotted by the seawater. Except for the relatively thick wooden beams that were barely holding up, the rest of the ship had long been rotted away.
Colorful little fish swam in and out of the gaps in the shipwreck. Huang Tonghai waved his hand to scare them away.
Huang Tonghai dived all the way to the seabed. He used his hands to dig through the thick seabed mud and exposed the remains of porcelain.
As long as he could find two or three intact vases, they would definitely be from the Tang Dynasty, and he would be rich.
Huang Tonghai raised his hand to signal Lao Hong to give him the sack and the fishing net he had brought. Then he excitedly used the fishing net to scoop up the wreckage and put it into the sack.
He was going to be rich!
His ancestors had not lied to him!
Xu Qingqing saw that except for Gu Anrou and her uncle who had come back up from the sea, the others had been in the water for more than ten minutes. It seemed they had found the place.
"Teacher Wang, it's time for us to go now."
Wang Lide also thought the time was right. He nodded in agreement and told the bodyguard to drive the boat forward.
Gu Anrou didn't want to go into the sea again after one try. She felt that if she dived in again, she would drown.
But Gu Anrou didn't expect to look up and see a white yacht approaching them.
A moment of panic flashed through Gu Anrou's heart. She watched helplessly as the white yacht sailed on the edge of the whirlpool that had almost taken her life.
The white yacht was not affected at all. It sailed smoothly as if on a calm sea.
Xu Qingqing had seen through the telescope how Gu Anrou and her uncle had been tortured by the whirlpool.
She thought it would be a rough ride, so she specially took out the seasickness pills Lu Chuanbai had prepared for her and distributed them to everyone.
Whoever felt dizzy could take one. But unexpectedly, thanks to the excellent driving skills of the bodyguard, they were hardly affected. The deck only tilted slightly.
Xu Qingqing looked at the bodyguard driving the boat in admiration and once again recognized the true strength of the bodyguards.
The big shot was really a big shot!
They didn't even take this life - threatening whirlpool seriously.
When Gu Anrou saw the white yacht approaching, she instinctively held her breath and hid underwater, afraid of being discovered.
As the boat got closer and closer, when it was only 10 meters away, Gu Anrou saw that Xu Qingqing was actually standing on the boat.
Why was Xu Qingqing here!
Gu Anrou was stunned on the spot. Her eyes were fixed on Xu Qingqing standing on the boat.
Even through the diving mask, Xu Qingqing could feel the distorted expression on Gu Anrou's face when she saw her.
Xu Qingqing happily waved to Gu Anrou.
Gu Anrou was in a complete mess. She quickly dived underwater, trying to convince herself.
She was wearing a diving suit. Xu Qingqing might not recognize her.
Stay calm!
Don't panic!
Xu Qingqing had brought people. She had to quickly inform Huang Tonghai to escape!
Huang Tonghai had salvaged a pile of broken porcelain one after another.
Just as he was about to dig out a complete porcelain, his body couldn't bear the water pressure anymore. He dragged the bag and swam up.
Just then, he met Gu Anrou swimming down. Gu Anrou frantically gestured to Huang Tonghai.
Huang Tonghai wasn't stupid. Seeing Gu Anrou constantly pointing upwards, he realized that something might have happened above. He hid the bag behind him and jumped out of the water.
