Chapter 737: Clever Salvage Method
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty minutes passed, and Raymond and Johnny swam in from the northwest and were already in sight.
After they swam close and landed on the ground, Ye Tian dismissed the group of bull sharks and let these guys play and hunt on their own.
The reason why he was so careful was that he was afraid that if this group of bull sharks collided with Raymond and them, it would be a big trouble!
These guys were only close to themselves, and Matisse stood by them for more than twenty minutes, and they all liked to ignore them, not to mention Raymond who had just arrived!
Looking at these guys who swam to the side with their tail fins, Raymond and each of them were hot in their eyes and envious.
"Oh my God! This is a bunch of adult bullsharks! It looks so tame, it's unbelievable! Steven, how did you do that? It's a miracle!"
Orlando exclaimed in a low voice, his eyes wide and his eyeballs almost flying out of his sockets.
"Hahaha, didn't I say it before, I naturally have an affinity for animals, the previous long-snouted dolphins were like this, and this group of fierce guys in front of me is no exception!"
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, his tone and expression were very proud.
"It's amazing, how come I don't have this ability!"
Orlando said enviously, his eyes a little red.
Immediately afterwards, Johnny said with a little regret:
"Steven, why are you in such a hurry to dismiss this group of bullsharks? It would be nice to introduce us to them, just like the long-nosed dolphins before us, we really want to get in touch with this group of bullsharks.
If you can get up close and personal with the bull sharks known as the 'wolves of the sea', it will definitely be very exciting, and there is nothing cooler than that!
"Forget it! Those fierce guys only recognize Steven alone, and I've been standing here for more than twenty minutes, and those guys don't even see me, and completely treat me like air!"
Matisse shook his head and said, also with regret on his face.
"After all, this is a bull shark, a fierce beast of the sea, very bloodthirsty! It can't be compared with those long-nosed dolphins before, God knows if these guys will suddenly turn their faces!
For the sake of safety, it's better not to introduce you to each other for the time being, and when there are more contacts in the future, and you can find out the temper of these guys, it's not too late to introduce you to each other!"
Ye Tian explained with a smile that he really didn't dare to let this group of bull sharks come into contact with everyone.
Hearing this, everyone immediately thought of the bull shark they knew, the real bull shark!
It's the most feared killer of the seas, tyrannical and fierce! It's almost impossible to be a friend of humanity, except for Steven, the amazing guy!
With their mouths full of sharp teeth and tremendous strength, it is probably not much more difficult to shred a person's body than it is to shred a piece of paper!
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but shiver, and quickly dispelled the idea of getting close to the bull shark group.
"You're right, Steven, these guys are so vicious, it's better to stay away!"
Orlando nodded, a little frightened in his eyes.
Ye Tian nodded with a smile, and then changed the topic.
"Okay! Let's not talk about these bull sharks for the time being, and we called everyone here, not to see these bull sharks, but to get up the two safes we found in this wreck.
Later, let's work together to haul the two safes out of the cockpit and the captain's cabin, and then use the decompression stop to bring them to the surface and carry them to the yacht.
Let's go back and wait for us to finish our deep diving, return to the surface, and open these two safes together to experience the fun of exploring and discovering treasures, and maybe there will be some discoveries!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian also stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the freighter's shipyard.
At this time, they were no longer on the bottom of the ship, but standing on the sand of the seabed directly in front of the main deck, close to the capsized shipbuilding.
"Great! Let's get started! Salvage the shipwreck treasure, it's fun to think about!"
Johnny's eyes lit up with excitement, and he couldn't wait.
Ye Tian shook his head and explained with a chuckle:
"Don't worry, Johnny, I've sent Kenny their location message, they'll soon put the decompression stop to the bottom of the sea, and we'll do it again.
Both of these safes were old-fashioned creatures, small in size, but well stocked and heavy, and it would have taken some effort to drag them out of the shipyard.
There are fishing nets and pontoons prepared in advance at the decompression stop, and with fishing nets and pontoons, as long as we grasp the direction, we can easily get these two iron lumps out of the shipyard.
In addition, it has been more than an hour since everyone was in the water, the compressed air in the cylinder is almost the same, and the power of the submersible propulsion has also consumed a lot, so it is time to replace it!
Taking this opportunity, let's simply replace them all, and then continue to explore this seabed, and when we need to replace them again, we can surface to the surface and end this deep diving exploration!"
"Okay, Steven, this arrangement is very reasonable, everyone in the province tosses again and again!"
Raymond and the others nodded in response, naturally there was no disagreement.
After chatting for a few words, the deep diving decompression stop station slowly descended from the sea water above, and the position where it landed on the bottom of the sea was right in front of everyone's eyes.
After the four-square-meter decompression stop stopped at the bottom of the sea, everyone immediately stepped forward and cooperated with each other to start replacing the gas cylinders and the battery pack of the fully wet diving thruster.
Ye Tian and Matisse's thrusters are still hanging on the cockpit of the ship's building, and they can only be replaced later, and now the two of them only need to replace the compressed gas cylinders!
The gas cylinders and battery packs carried on the stop were sufficient, and the replacement process was very smooth and there were no problems.
In less than ten minutes, everyone completed the replacement of the equipment one after another, and returned to the state when they just went to sea, and they could stay on the bottom of the sea for two or three hours.
After quickly checking the equipment and confirming that there was no problem, Ye Tian stepped forward again and took down two sturdy fishing nets from the stop.
Matisse followed, removing four hollow and resilient plastic pontoons.
The rest of the guys were not idle, and each swam over to carry two unused compressed gas cylinders, which everyone had just replaced!
"Guys, let's go, go get those two safes out and bring them back to the surface!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian jumped upwards slightly, his body leaned forward quickly, and swam towards the side of the boat building with his legs, like a big black fish, very stretched and coordinated after moving!
Matisse and they immediately followed, and everyone was very excited.
Soon, the group of five of them swam to the window of the cockpit of the ship's building.
Ye Tian and Matisse's submersible thrusters are still hanging on the railing outside the window, which is very conspicuous!
The first time he swam here, Ye Tian immediately secretly turned on the perspective and quickly scanned the situation in the cockpit.
The residents here, the dangerous thorn ray has not yet returned, and it is safe to enter.
Ye Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately passed through the window and swam into the cockpit lightly.
At the same time, he did not forget to remind everyone.
"Guys, this is a nest of a thorny ray, that guy is very dangerous, everyone must be vigilant and keep an eye on their own safety during the operation.
That thorn ray isn't here at this time, it's out to hunt just now, so let's move quickly, I don't want to meet that dangerous guy, that's not a good thing!"
"Got it, Steven!"
Several people responded in unison and swam into the cockpit one after another.
Raymond and the three of them did the same, and hung their thrusters on the railing outside the window, so that they could move later.
This is the second time I've visited, so there's no need to explore again!
Without a moment's delay, Ye Tian and Matisse swam straight to the location of the safe and started to act directly!
"Raymond, Johnny, Orlando, find three points to tie this fishing net, make sure it is tied strongly, and the open side is under the safe, ready to catch the safe.
I would pull the safe out of the iron cabinet and throw it into the fishing net, and then the fishing net would be tied to the pontoon, and air would be injected into the pontoon, and the buoyancy of the pontoon would be used to get the safe out of it."
Ye Tian handed the fishing net to Raymond and quickly made arrangements.
"Okay, that's a great way to do it, and it saves effort!"
Raymond nodded, and then went into action with Johnny.
Soon, the wide, sturdy nets were tied into a triangle, with the open side just under the safe.
Next, Ye Tian swam to the location of the safe, tied the handle of the safe with the cable he carried, and retreated to the cockpit window.
The reason why he didn't pull the handle of the safe directly with his hands and pulled it out of the iron cabinet was because the position was not easy to focus on, and the other was for his own safety.
The bulkhead and iron cabinet have been eroded by the sea for decades, and it is really difficult to estimate how much tension they can withstand.
After standing still at the window and finding a point of borrowing, he immediately grabbed the cable and began to pull it outward, and Matisse also came over to add force.
Although the place where the safe was located was rusted and it was quite laborious to pull, it was pulled out of the iron cabinet little by little thanks to the huge combined efforts of the two of them.
In just a dozen seconds, the heavy iron lump was successfully pulled out and landed in the fishing net that was hanging below.
The rest was simple, as Raymond and Johnny quickly tied a pontoon to each end of the net, and Orlando was in charge of filling the pontoon with compressed air.
As the air entered, the sea water in the pontoons began to be discharged little by little, and the two empty pontoons gradually bulged, and the heavy safe was hoisted into the sea with fishing nets!
After seeing that the safe had successfully floated and was no longer sinking, Ye Tian immediately shouted to stop, stopping Orlando's action of continuing to pump up the pontoon.
That's it! All you have to do is push the net and exit through the cockpit window!
If you are outside the cockpit at this time, you only need to fill some air into the pontoons, and these two pontoons can float directly to the sea with the safe!
"OK! This safe is done, let's go to the captain's room below, there is also a safe there, that one is a little more troublesome, but it is not difficult to get out!"
After speaking, Ye Tian swam towards the iron door leading to the lower deck.
Ten minutes later, Ye Tian and the others pushed two fishing nets that held the safe and returned to the decompression stop platform parked at the bottom of the sea.
Each of them also took back the diving thruster at this time, and hung it on everyone's waist.
After quickly replacing the batteries of his submersible thruster, Ye Tian commanded everyone again, connected the two fishing nets to the decompression stop, and put those air bottles back!
Next, he uses the underwater computer on the decompression stop to send Kenny and the others instructions to recover the decompression stop!
After more than ten seconds, the decompression stop slowly rose and floated towards the sea with two decades-old safes.
Until the decompression stop disappeared into the dark sea water above their heads, Ye Tian, who was standing at the bottom of the sea, retracted their gaze and looked at each other.
"It's so ingenious!
Johnny said in amazement, his expression very excited.
"This salvage method is indeed very ingenious, but it is only suitable for salvaging treasures and small items, not for salvaging wrecks!"
Matisse explained, equally excited.
"Guys, let's continue to explore this seabed, the direction is still the same as before, maybe there are surprises waiting for us ahead!"
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, full of confidence!
