In many legends today, this sea area has concentrated the largest pirate treasure and has not yet been discovered.

专家 According to experts' speculation, there are many treasures either sunk into the bottom of the sea with pirate ships sunk by the navy, or the loss of gold and silver due to internal conflict between pirates.

According to statistics, 45 out of every 100 gold and silver ships from the American colonies to Spain were sunk to the bottom by pirates and storms.

Since Columbus reached here for the third time across the Atlantic in 1498, there have been at least thousands of ships loaded with gold and silver jewellery that were sunk by storms and pirates.

The Caribbean Sea is a place full of pirate treasures and legends of shipwrecks full of gold and silver wealth.

锐 Chen Rui locked the target of the underwater treasure hunt behind the Caribbean Sea.

What he needs to do next is to narrow down the scope of the treasure hunt target.

You know, the area of ​​the Caribbean Sea is 2754,000 square kilometers, equivalent to more than one-third of China ’s land area. The average water depth is 2500 meters. It is no different to find sunken ships sunk by storms and pirates from the Caribbean Sea. Need a haystack.

Therefore, Chen Rui wants to narrow the scope of treasure hunting to a certain area of ​​more than ten square kilometers.

Either the bustling route through which Spanish gold and silver ships were transported at that time, or the places where pirates frequented, or the locations of shipwrecks recorded in historical documents.

To this end, Chen Rui made a lot of careful preparation.

Within a month, I searched a lot of literature on the Internet, browsed a lot of books and materials related to the Spanish colonial era, such as navigation, treasures, pirates, and sunken ships, and finally asked some fishermen along the coast.

In the end, Chen Rui narrowed his target to a sea area southeast of Cuba's Belmudes.

In this sea area, there are a large number of documented Spanish merchant ships, gold transport ships and pirate ships sunk by storms or plundering pirates, forming a world-famous undersea 'treasure cemetery'.

After half a month, a lot of careful preparation was done.

Chen Rui came to Belmudes, Cuba, and rented a yacht to the sea.

的 Informative information from the previously reviewed literature concluded that the most likely place where the shipwreck was moored.

In the Spanish colonial era, at this location of tens of square kilometers, the plundering pirates sank several merchant ships that transported gold, silver, spices and jewelry back to Spain.

Whether you search for information on the Internet or the information in the mere phrases searched by the library, this is clearly mentioned.

After anchoring the yacht, Chen Rui jumped into the water.

锐 Chen Rui's weird move is not surprising, because in this sea area, there are often such diving enthusiasts.

After jumping into the sea, the water splits and the seawater separates automatically.

Soon after, Chen Rui dived to the bottom of the sea more than 100 meters deep.

The bottom of the sea is a little dark, and the sea water is a bit cold. But you can see clearly the surrounding environment.

You can see underwater beaches, reefs, swimming fish, and underwater creatures.

Chen Rui carried a metal detector with him.

Chen Rui began a carpet-like search on the sea floor.

During the search process, Chen Rui also did not forget to receive all the seabed creatures that can be seen on the sea floor into the pregnant sea pearl ocean, and supplement the biological species of the pregnant sea pearl ocean.

The most common underwater creatures of are tuna, barracuda, lionfish, grouper, etc.

I searched for a long time. I searched for hundreds of meters of the sea floor near the carpet, and never saw the ghost of the shipwreck.

When Chen Rui wanted to go up to rest for a while, suddenly, he found a fish over 1.5 meters in length and swam towards him.

The carp body has a long spindle shape, a thick body, a large head, a wide mouth, and sharp teeth. The body is covered with large and thin oval round scales. The exposed part of the scales has many small scabs or warts, and the surface is rough.

锐 Chen Rui almost immediately came up with a name in his mind, "Speartail".

The tadpole is very recognizable because its tail-fin shape is similar to a spear-shaped trilobal shape, hence the name ‘speartail. ’

This is a big guy, with a length of 2 meters and a weight of 90 kg.

It is also a ferocious predator, with squid, squid, and other deep-sea fish, and even tiny sharks on its recipes.

What makes it famous is that it is the oldest 'living fossil' in the ocean and is the only living total fin fish. All other groups of total fin fish have been extinct on the earth.

This fish, which lived from the end of the Permian to the early Cretaceous, was thought to have been extinct as early as 70 million years ago.

However, in December 1938, the first was caught in the deep sea near the East London Island on the southeast coast of Africa. The mystery of catching spearfish caught the attention of all walks of the world and caused biologists to The big debate on traditional biological evolution theory.

Cormorants caught the second surgeonfish in 1954 in the Comoros Islands in Africa.

In 1982, the Comorian government and government donated a precious specimen of speartail fish to China, which is now preserved in the China Paleozoological Museum.

In 1998, a surgeonfish was caught off the coast of Indonesia. UU Reading Books www.uukanshu.com

Almost every catch of speartail can attract worldwide attention.

锐 Chen Rui stood still, and when the speartail approached, Chen Rui suddenly launched and took the big fish into the pregnant sea pearl.

Entering the sea of ​​pregnant sea pearl, the speartail fish became more energetic. It seemed to be very satisfied with the environment, and immediately began chasing and predating the marine life just put in.

I caught a speartail fish that cherishes the anomaly, and Chen Rui secretly said, ‘I'm finally busy today. "

He is going to board the ship, leaving marks, and intends to search here for a long time.

The search area previously set is not small. It takes at least half a year to search them all.

Seabed.

Chen Rui held a metal detector and scanned the sea floor.

I searched on the sea floor for more than half a month, and did not even see the shadow of the sunken ship.

Fortunately, Chen Rui caught another speartail. This spearfish is a female, and a male spearfish caught before, a male and a female, just matched up as a pair, which is a very unexpected surprise.

According to the convention, Chen Rui collects all the seabed organisms found in the pregnant sea pearls, supplements the ecosystem of the oceans in the pregnant sea pearls space, and makes the marine systems in the pregnant seas pearls space cyclically stable.

Coral reefs, planktonic algae, benthic algae and marine seed plants, various marine organisms, marine bacteria and marine fungi, and inorganic substances involved in the material cycle, such as carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, carbon dioxide, water, constitute the entire pregnant sea pearl Space marine ecosystem.
