Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

Chapter 83: Picking up bargains at the bottom of the sea

I spent four days in the county town. During the day I either went to listen to music or watched singing and dancing. These were the only entertainment activities in ancient times. They did not have much appeal to Bi Yue, and she got bored of them after a few days.

Xiaomai bought a lot of things, including a lot of beautiful cloths of various colors, vegetables, eggs, meat, sugar, etc. Anyway, Chen Chen was generous and bought everything in the county shops that Xiaomai liked. It was really a big purchase.

Bi Yue went along to accompany them shopping, just to collect the goods and put all the purchases into her treasure bag.

Since it was upgraded to the eighth level, the treasure bag has expanded a lot and now covers more than 4,000 square meters.

I went in to take a look before going to bed that night. The house was still over 1,000 square meters, but there was a new open space next to it, which was as open as a football field and was almost half the size of a football field.

The yacht will no longer have to squeeze into this open space, and the house can be used as a warehouse to store gold, silver, treasures, food and other things. The charcoal can also be moved out and placed outside since it's not raining outside anyway.

Now that they had bought everything they needed to buy and had played to their heart's content, it was time for the four of them to return to the island. The Chinese New Year was only a few days away, so after lunch they decided to go back in the evening.

After the afternoon twilight hour, they drove the carriage out of the county town and headed for a road near the sea. When they arrived, they put away the carriage and horses, released the yacht, and the four of them boarded the boat.

Xiaomai sailed today and returned to the nameless island in an hour and a half. From afar, he saw the four snake generals and many snakes waiting on the beach. Chen Chen went ashore and asked them:

"You four brought so many men here today, what happened?"

"You were not at home these days, and we noticed that many fishing boats passed by this sea these days. We were worried that the fishing boats would be found on the island and there would be houses there.

So we let all the snakes on the island gather around here during the day to scare them away. If we don’t do this, what if they come to the island and run to the lady’s house to take things? "

Chen Chen said approvingly: "You have done a good job. I brought a lot of good things from the county town. I will give them to you later."

The four generals and the snakes shouted in unison: "Thank you, King."

Bi Yue, who was listening nearby, thought they did a good job, but she was also thinking that if there was no one on the island and someone really came up, these snakes alone would not be able to stop them, and they might even get hurt or die.

The four of them entered the house first. Xiaomai fetched a basin of water and wiped the table and chairs. They couldn't think of a better way for a while. This island was originally an unowned island.

All the fishermen nearby can come up, but they are afraid of the poisonous snakes here so they dare not come. If those who are skilled in martial arts come with poison and powder, these snakes will be in trouble.

Biyue told Chen Chen about this idea. He also knew that this problem was quite serious and that they must find a way to eliminate all possible dangers to be absolutely safe.

After talking for a while, it was already midnight. The Snake King and his men went back, and Bi Yue and the other two went to wash up and rest.

At the beginning of the next morning, Chen Chen and the four generals came together and said, "Master, today we will take you to the shipwreck. It is quite far from the island. In the past, it took us half a day to swim there.

If you can’t make it back in the evening, you can just find a place to rest and come back the next day. Now there are yachts, so you can go in the morning and come back in the afternoon, which is very convenient.”

"Okay, today you will accompany me to hunt for treasure, and I will give you a big gift package later."

Several people knew that the young lady had good things, and what she took out was not ordinary, so they said in unison: "Thank you, young lady."

The four of them sat down to eat, and each of the four generals was given a few raw eggs, which they quite liked.

Haisheng also wanted to go, but he didn't have the Spirit Water Pearl, so he couldn't go to the bottom of the sea. He could only say to him, "If you go, you can only stay on the boat. We are going to go down to the bottom of the sea. How have you been practicing Kung Fu recently? Have you made any progress in sparring with Xiaomai?"

Haisheng and Xiaomai competed in martial arts, but he always lost to her. Biyue knew that Xiaomai was practicing advanced martial arts now, while Haisheng was taught by a martial arts master hired by his family in the past. How could he compare with the system? So she decided to teach him intermediate martial arts after half a year.

After arranging the two of them, he took Chen Chen and the four snakes on the yacht and headed towards the sea where the shipwreck occurred.

This place is really far away from the nameless island, almost several hundred nautical miles away.

It was already noon when we arrived. We ate something on the boat, packed up the yacht and went down to the seabed. The seabed here was more than 60 meters deep from the sea level, and we saw many shipwrecks below.

There are quite a lot of things scattered around, including human bones. These are people who died at sea. My love is overflowing. When I collect the treasures, I will put their bones in another bag and bring them back to the shore for burial, so that they can rest in peace.

The two men and four snakes began to collect. Biyue gave Chen Chen a big bag and the four snakes small bags. There were so many good things underneath, boxes of gold and jewelry, and scattered porcelain.

I thought about the last time I wandered around the antique market. Many of the things there might have been fished out from the shallow sea. This place is 60 meters underwater. Ordinary people definitely can't withstand the pressure of the sea water. Then all the treasures on the seabed are mine. I'm rich, very rich.

After searching in the sea for an hour and a half, thanks to the treasure bag and the help of the system, the gold and silver scattered on the seabed were found.

I only collected intact calligraphy and paintings that had not been soaked in sea water, as well as silk and porcelain. I put them all in my treasure bag first, and then went back to look at them slowly. I had almost finished picking up all the things below.

I don't know how long these treasures have been lying on the seabed. Not only here, but there must be some in other places. Let's fish these good things back from the seabed in the next few days. It would be a pity to let them sink to the bottom of the sea. These treasures can be sold to the system to increase the negative level points.

I remember how painful it was to spend 100,000 points to buy a photographic memory pill. Today, I have obtained so many valuable treasures and can buy a lot of good things on the negative level of the system.

After that, we collected some more seafood and fish nearby and earned some points. We looked at the alarm clock and it was past 16:, so we swam quickly to the surface of the sea, released the yacht, got on the boat and headed for the nameless island.

The weather was good today, the sea was calm, and the yacht sped up, arriving in less than two hours. They returned to the living room to rest and drink some water. Then they came to a large house and took out everything they had picked up from the sea today, filling up half of the house.

Bi Yue said to Chen Chen, "Call the four snake generals in."

The four generals came in, and Bi Yue said to them, "I have observed that you four are very loyal and capable. There are only four of us on the island. The last incident sounded the alarm for me. Do you want to become human?"

The four snakes knelt down and kowtowed without a second thought: "We are willing to transform into humans. We are willing to accept any conditions."

"The New Year is coming soon. In the next few days, we will go to the nearby area to collect the treasures scattered in the sea. We will use these treasures to buy the Transformation Pill from the immortal so that you can take it. This is also my New Year's gift to you."

"Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Master."

"Let's go back and rest today."

After they left, Biyue said to Xiaomai and Haisheng, "It's already the hour of Hai now. You should clean and pack the treasures in this room at home tomorrow."

So they placed an order for a lot of wooden boxes of different sizes on the system and placed them aside, and the three of them washed up and rested.
