Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 146 Unexpected Discovery

"I think this is mainly because not many cultural relics have been discovered in Newfoundland and Labrador before, so the corresponding local departments are not prepared enough in this regard." Captain Lubzon Jr. shrugged.

"More importantly, the government departments here strictly follow the eight-hour working system except for a few emergency departments, so no matter how important this relic is, the other party will not work overtime.

"However, I have to say that our luck is good. After all, tomorrow is a working day. Otherwise, the other party will really be able to rest until the working day before coming over."

"Well, I hope they can arrive on time at noon tomorrow." Liang En resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said to Captain Lubzon Jr. He really had nothing to say about the efficiency of the local staff.

Fortunately, although these people said that they strictly followed the vacation schedule, they would not make any troubles about arriving late and leaving early when they were working.

So at 12:30 noon the next day, Liang En and the others saw a seaplane leading the staff to the excavation site directly.

A whole archaeological team got off the plane. Apparently, the other party realized the importance of this site from Liang En's report yesterday, so they simply rushed here by seaplane today.

Of course, the reason why the other party dared to come here by plane is also very simple, because Mr. Earl agreed to hand over the equipment on the ship to the archaeological team for use.And this greatly reduces the amount of luggage that the archaeological team needs to carry.

After handing over the items with the archaeological team, Liang En planned to take Fan Meng around, especially planning to search the surrounding bays carefully.

The reason for this is that Liang En and the others found a room in the excavation that used a lot of apparently processed wood.

Considering that this group of Vikings should not have much energy and enough time to repair the houses used for construction, Liang En suspected from the very beginning that the trimmed wood might come from a sunken ship.

In the subsequent inspection, Liang En confirmed this even more. He found that the collected samples contained a large amount of salt, which apparently only appeared in wood that had been soaked in seawater for a long time.

In other words, one or more ships must have sunk nearby, which is why after the archaeological team took over the scientific research site on land, Liang En and Fan Meng chose to search along the beach on an all-terrain vehicle.

"The rest is up to you." Before setting off on the all-terrain vehicle, Liang En took out a piece of meat that he carried with him, chopped up the three ravens that he was feeding, and let them fly after they were full.

Soon, the three ravens spread their wings and took off from Liang En's side against the sea wind, and then spread their wings and began to search along the coastline at low altitude.

This is actually a way of trying luck, because these strengthened transitional crows can easily find some shiny things, so Liang En hopes that they can find something in the clear sea water.

to be honest.That is to say, the ravens can play a more effective role in open places such as the seaside or the desert.After all, even if they are strengthened, they are limited to mortal bodies, and cannot see things below through obstacles.

Soon, a few ravens found some things and marked those places by repeatedly swooping down. Unfortunately, when Liang En led Fan Meng over excitedly, he often found that those shiny things were just some garbage.

"Another shard of glass." Liang En reluctantly put a glass shard rounded by the sea into his pocket. Obviously, these shiny garbage attracted the ravens, but it's a pity that these things were not Liang En want.

Even though these ravens can obey orders and their IQs are improved, they are not human after all.That's why there is this instinct to pick up all the shiny things that are driven by instinct.

In such a situation, Liang En could only try his luck to see what his group of ravens could find in the water. After all, for human beings, switching the vision of the ravens to detect the surrounding environment is not enough. OK, it's not a good idea to find something small.

Fortunately, even if they can't find anything for a while, the surrounding scenery is enough to make them worth the ticket price.Especially not far from this place, you can still see scattered icebergs and occasional whales floating out of the sea.

"Guess what it is this time?" Fan Meng asked Liang En with a smile when he watched the ravens start to fly around a reef four or fifty meters away from the coast.

"Who can guess that." Liang En smiled wryly, then looked at the reef surrounded by sea water.

Obviously, unlike the places found on the shore just now, if you want to find it near the reef, you have to take a boat there. Fortunately, the sailors on the boat left them an inflatable rubber boat.

"Do you know how to use this thing?" After boarding the boat, Liang En looked at Fan Meng who started to operate the motor and asked. "Although this thing is simple, it requires training to use it."

"Don't worry, my military training back then included manipulating this small speedboat. Although I'm definitely not as proficient as those sailors, I'm still considered a semi-professional." Fan Meng looked confident.

After all, the French set up the Foreign Legion to reduce the casualties of their own people, so their training can be described as conscientious.The level of military quality that can come out there is not low.

In particular, Fan Meng's previous service was the [-]rd Company of the [-]nd Parachute Regiment of the French Foreign Legion, which was mainly engaged in amphibious operations, so it was very easy for him to maneuver the rubber boat in this calm bay.

Soon, the two came to the vicinity of the reef in a rubber boat, then turned off the motor to prevent the reef from damaging the propeller, took out the oars and rowed to the side of the reef little by little.

This reef is very dangerous for navigators, because even if it is low tide time, the height of the entire reef above the water will not exceed 20cm.That is to say, if the tide is high, it is likely to be completely submerged underwater.

"Gold!" Just after Liang En and the others set foot on the reef which was only five or six square meters, Fan Meng suddenly pointed to a place only one or two meters away from the two of them.

After looking along where Fan Meng pointed, Liang En found that there was something shining golden in the crack of the stone, which looked like gold.

However, Liang En was much calmer than Fan Meng in this regard, because they had found two things that looked like they were shining with golden light before, only to find out that they were just the kind of golden plastic toys used to decorate Christmas trees.

But when Liang En took the photo and reached out to dig out the palm-sized box from the cracks in the stone, he realized that what they found this time was not the plastic they found a few times ago, but gold.

"We found the treasure this time." After touching it with his hands and confirming that the box was made of metal, Fan Meng immediately became excited.

Because seawater is extremely corrosive to metals, and among the metals that ancient humans could produce, only gold can be soaked in the sea for a long time without rusting.

"Hurry up, hurry up and open it!" Seeing that the box was only snapped on, Fan Meng said while opening a camera on his head to record the image. "This could be a big discovery."
