After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

Time passed by minute by minute, and one-third of the scheduled hour had passed.

Looking at the big rock below, Su Mo couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"Should I start digging holes where the agouti went in?"

“Isn’t this going to tire people to death?”

"Even if we get a drilling equipment, the drill bit can't turn!"

"It would be great if we could get a group of fish that can dig holes to help..."

Thinking of this, Su Mo's eyes lit up.

There are actually quite a few aquatic creatures that can dig holes, such as Weddell seals and the moonfish in fresh water. However, Su Mo couldn't remember which ones lived here for a while.

So he immediately swam out of the hole and turned on the universal fish detector, trying to find if there were any fish of this type on the spot.

Soon, he found what he was looking for!

After swimming more than a hundred meters to the east, Su Mo saw a group of big, stupid fish swimming nearby.

These fish are more than 40 centimeters long and are light red all over. The head and tail are almost in a straight line. The back of the head drops suddenly from the front of the dorsal fin to near the eyes, making its head look like a large square.

Because of their peculiar appearance, people call them tilefish. They live in sandy places on the seabed and can dig holes and build nests under rocks. They are just the good helpers Su Mo is looking for!

"It's up to you, Tilefish!"

Su Mo immediately controlled the group of tilefish, and then found another group of tilefish in the nearby sea. Finally, he brought more than 30 large tilefish back to the cave where the agouti was first found.

"Whether you can find the treasure this time or not depends entirely on you! Come on!"

Following Su Mo's order, these tilefish swarmed up and frantically used their hard square heads to dig at the small hole through which the agouti passed.

These guys are worthy of the title of little experts in digging holes. The sand they dug straight away turned up the water and made the sea water in the hole turbid. Su Mo was ashamed to see their efficiency.

He had no choice but to swim out of the cave and wait patiently at the entrance.

After more than ten minutes, it was less than half an hour before the scheduled time. Just when Su Mo was waiting a little anxiously, the tilefish below finally opened the passage and successfully reached the location of the agouti. .

Su Mo didn't care that the water in the cave was still extremely turbid and dived in eagerly.

After groping for a moment in the extremely low visibility water, he saw the hole that was large enough for a person to pass through horizontally.

"If this efficiency can be brought ashore, there will be no need to hit workers!"

Su Mo complained in his heart, and then immediately got into the hole. There were two bifurcated roads at the entrance of the cave, a wide one and a narrow one. The narrow one going up should be the passage that the agouti originally used to leave the nest, while the wide one goes up. Going all the way down, it has been enlarged very much by the tilefish at this time.

Su Mo immediately entered the wide road.

After walking for a few minutes in the maze-like cave, Su Mo saw a small hole in front of him that was too small to accommodate an adult.

And the group of tilefish and agoutifish all stayed here honestly.

"Just a small hole?"

Su Mo frowned, and immediately drove the fish away from here, and then immediately swam to the end of the small hole and started groping.

It didn't matter if he didn't touch it. Once he touched it, Su Mo's eyes lit up.

Because he touched a small iron box in the corner of the cave!

"Is it a treasure chest?"

Su Mo was so excited that he immediately picked up the shovel and dug next to the iron box. After a while, he dug out the iron box that was only the size of a human head from the ground.

Although the iron box has become extremely rusty, the pitted lines on the surface all prove that it was a very exquisite item at that time. Moreover, although the box does not look big, it is very heavy to buy, and it is obviously filled with contents. It's heavy metal.

"Isn't it the gold you are pretending to be wearing?"

Su Mo couldn't wait to open the lid of the box and took a look. What he saw were two palm-sized gold cakes, and the bottom of the box was covered with small red and green gems!

"Fuck, got rich!"

Su Mo couldn't help but swallowed. Not to mention the two gold cakes, these small gems alone were already very valuable!

Putting down the iron box, he searched the cave again, but this time he failed to find any other treasure boxes. However, he discovered that there was a yellow-brown cave wall that was not actually soil, but a piece of almost completely rotten wood!

"Is this the hull of the ship?"

With this expectation, Su Mo immediately used a shovel to shovel the big piece of wood. The wood had been soaked in the sea for countless years and was now extremely soft. He shoveled off a large piece in a few strokes.

But the thickness of the wood was far beyond his imagination. After finally cutting off one piece, there was another one behind it, and there was an iron bar between the two to fix it!

At this point, Su Mo was already sure that this was the legendary Sea Flower!

Because Jenny had introduced the information about the Sea Flower in detail before.

Portugal was still one of the maritime hegemons in the early 16th century. The Maritime Flower was a large wooden sailboat built by Portugal at that time. At that time, the Maritime Flower was the largest ship in the world!

With this large ship, Portugal established huge colonies in India and Asia and plundered countless wealth.

According to Jenny’s father’s notes, the Sea Flower plundered dozens of tons of gold and countless natural gems from the Sultanate Palace in Malacca. The greedy invaders wanted to use the powerful carrying capacity of the Sea Flower to take these treasures away at once. After returning home, the ship finally sank here because the cargo was too heavy and there was a sudden storm.

Gold, gems, a hull of incredible strength and craftsmanship, it's all right!

However, Su Mo had no time to continue digging. In order to prevent Santos and his gang from becoming suspicious, he had to go back immediately.

After taking a gold cake and three gems from the treasure box, Su Mo immediately returned the same way. After leaving the passage, he dug some soil with a shovel and refilled the hole dug by the tilefish.

After doing this, he calmly left the big hole, put on his diving equipment, and then pulled the safety rope.

After a moment, the safety rope was quickly tightened and brought Su Mo back to the sea.

At this time, everyone on the three boats turned their attention to him, so Su Mo immediately looked weak, took off his diving helmet, and kept breathing heavily, as if he would come up later. Like dying.

Seeing his appearance, Jenny felt funny in her heart, and she quickly asked loudly with a straight face: "How's it going? Did you find anything?"

"No, no, the bottom of the sea is nothing but sand. I dug in a hole with a shovel for a while, but I found a big rock." Su Mo said with a hint of bitterness, and then waved to Jenny: " Can you pull me up first, I’m about to get cramps.”

So Jenny lay on the railing and held Su Mo's hand.

As soon as their hands came into contact, Jenny's eyes suddenly lit up, because she discovered that Su Mo had taken this opportunity to stuff something into his hand!

"Did he really find the treasure? I really saw him right!"

Jenny was so excited that she forgot to speak for a while.

Seeing this, Su Mo quickly shouted to Long Yiyi on the side: "Come and help, I have no strength, she can't pull her."

After Long Huayi came over, he took the opportunity to stuff the remaining two gems...
