Tang Songyuan was startled and speechless for a moment.
At this time, the big whale had swam out of the range of his perspective and was already a thousand meters away.
He asked: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Li Qingying smiled and said: "Don't be so excited. I still vaguely remember the approximate location. I will show you the way. Let's find it slowly."
Just as he was talking, Tang Songyuan suddenly saw the big whale coming back again.
It held a huge stingray in its mouth and was swimming towards the Pipi Shrimp.
Stingrays, also called devil rays, have a flat body shape, resembling a thin disk.
Soon, it rushed out of the water with its head held high and appeared in front of the two of them again.
Snapped!
The big whale's mouth loosened, and the stingray fell onto the stern deck of the Pipi Shrimp.
"Is this how you say thank you?"
Li Qingying couldn't help but stroked its head and giggled: "Thank you, baby, you are so cute."
Devil Ray: Is there no one who can speak up for me?
You are great, you are noble, you give me gifts and I suffer...
The big whale made another cheerful cry and once again performed the rolling motion on the water in front of Li Qingying.
Although its body is about the same size as Pipi Shrimp, its movements are still quite naive.
"Can I give it a name?" Li Qingying asked childishly.
Tang Songyuan slumped his shoulders and responded: "It doesn't matter, you can figure it out yourself!"
Li Qingying stroked its big head, which had become smooth again, and said with a smile:
"My name is Li Qingying. There is a word "green" in my name, so from now on I will call you Xiaolan..."
Xiaolan seemed to understand her words, and her belly rolling became more cheerful.
The sea was filled with Li Qingying's cheerful laughter and Xiaolan's high-pitched chirping.
It was getting late, and Tang, Song, and Yuan had no intention of continuing on their way. Anyway, the Broken Leaf and other fleets had not yet left port, and there was still some time before the rendezvous.
He lowered the anchor and Li Qingying began to prepare dinner.
Dinner is naturally pickled barnacles and steamed manta ray.
"Hey, this guy hasn't left yet!"
While eating, Tang Songyuan saw Xiaolan still cruising near the Pipi Shrimp through the perspective of vision.
It seemed that she was looking forward to Li Qingying coming out to play with her again.
Li Qingying said happily: "This is normal. Although it is just an animal, it has an IQ similar to that of a four- or five-year-old human child and knows how to be grateful."
Tang Songyuan nodded and joked: "It may also be that it really likes to play with you. After all, in its eyes... you are the only two-legged beast that understands what it thinks."
Li Qingying rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are the two-legged beast!"
Early the next morning, the two men pulled anchor and set sail under the rising sun.
Xiaolan didn't know where to fill her stomach, and slowly followed behind Pippi Shrimp.
From time to time, it leaps out of the sea and stirs up huge waves, seeming to invite Li Qingying to come and play with it.
But Li Qingying is now busy helping Tang Songyuan guide the location and find the remains of the sunken ship she sensed from Xiaolan yesterday.
But a whale is not a human being after all, and its memory is a very vague concept. Moreover, Li Qingying does not have the powerful clairvoyance ability of Tang, Song and Yuan to peer into the seabed.
It is also impossible to know the path Xiao Lan took here after discovering the undersea ruins.
Tang Songyuan said: "Then how about I control it and let it take us there by itself."
Li Qingying said worriedly: "Then will it die?"
Tang Songyuan curled his lips and said: "As long as it is kept within a certain range, it will not be life-threatening."
"And I can intervene directly, and it can also act freely according to the instructions I give it. It is quite flexible."
Li Qingying nodded and said: "Okay, but you still have to pay attention..."
"I'm measured!"
As he spoke, Tang Songyuan completed the control of Xiaolan and let him lead the two of them to the underwater shipwreck ruins he had seen.
The speed of the Pipi Shrimp suddenly increased, heading towards the place where the sun rose.
Xiaolan's swimming speed was not much different from the speed at which the Pipi Shrimp sailed at full speed. Then Li Qingying began to worry about whether Xiaolan would starve if she kept swimming like this.
She checked online that an adult blue whale eats 8,000 kilograms of food a day. If there is less than 2,000 kilograms of food in its body, it will feel hungry.
Tang Songyuan had no choice but to control another group of fish to find food for Xiaolan, preferably fish schools.
To put it simply, it takes 5,000 kilograms of fish to travel 100 kilometers.
However, until sunset, the Pipi Shrimp passed through the Bashi Channel and entered the depths of the Pacific Ocean, but still did not reach its destination.
Rest for one night at sea and set off again the next morning.
After two full days of sailing, Tang, Song and Yuan began to wonder if Li Qingying's induction was wrong.
Finally, on the evening of the third day, Tang Songyuan saw the magnificent scene of the seabed through Xiaolan's vision returned from the seabed.
It was a huge treasure ship more than a hundred meters long.
The hull lying on its side on the seabed has been slightly deformed, and is covered with mud and various shellfish on the seabed. It looks like a moss-covered stone mountain.
Even so, this treasure ship still has an indescribable majestic atmosphere.
There is also an atmosphere of antiquity and vicissitudes, as if it has experienced endless years of accumulation.
A wooden ship of this size is still a huge thing even today, let alone in ancient times.
Pipi shrimps are only over 40 meters long.
Tang Songyuan also controlled Xiao Lan to swim above the sunken ship, projecting a perspective view into the interior of the sunken ship.
Because it is entirely covered with silt, the wooden structure that makes up the hull has not been corroded by too much sea water and is relatively well preserved.
The cargo in the cabin was even more eye-opening to Tang Song and Yuan.
A large number of porcelains were neatly stacked and stacked in several large cargo holds.
All porcelain.
There are many bowls, cups, plates, and jars, as well as plum vases or three-legged stoves with exquisite patterns.
All of them are produced by folk kilns in the mid-Ming Dynasty, but they are still extremely exquisite.
The key is that most of these porcelains are well preserved.
What's more important is that this batch of porcelain is huge, with a scale of no less than 100,000 pieces.
"Get rich!"
Tang Songyuan looked at the densely packed porcelain in his field of vision and murmured.
Li Qingying on the side asked: "Why are you getting rich? Is the baby below valuable?"
Tang Songyuan hummed and said, "How about I ask Xiaolan to come up and you get into its mouth and feel it?"
...
