After Changmei Zhenren jumped into the river, he couldn’t wait to go towards the bottom of the river.
Although he didn’t carry anything for lighting, after all, he was a strong man who had cultivated nine channels of true energy and had excellent eyesight, and could clearly see things within a radius of three meters.
At the same time, he also looked back and saw that Ye Qiu didn’t follow down, and his heart was overjoyed.
“Little bastard, you didn’t expect me to play this trick with you, did you?”
“By the time you react, I have already got the treasure.”
“Hahaha…”
Changmei Zhenren was extremely excited.
Soon.
Changmei Zhenren came to thirty meters below the river and saw a sunken ship.
The sunken ship landed on a reef, with the flag of Longmen hanging on it, and there were more than a dozen corpses in the cabin.
“A group of unlucky bastards actually died here.”
“Unfortunately, I’m not from Longmen and have no obligation to get you out.”
“But don’t worry, your sect master will come to salvage you soon. Just wait a little longer!”
Changmei Zhenren continued to sink.
After a while.
Changmei Zhenren reached the bottom of the river.
Looking around, there were stones and waterweeds everywhere, and there was also a lot of silt.
“Where is the treasure?”
Changmei Zhenren swept around and didn’t see the trace of the treasure. He couldn’t help but feel Doubt : “Could it be that the little bastard lied to me?”
”No, if he was lying to me, there would be no need to bring Xiao Zhan into the water.”
”There must be a treasure here.”
The Long-browed True Man, with his high skills and great courage, walked forward along the bottom of the river while looking for the treasure.
He walked about twenty-something meters.
Suddenly, the Long-browed True Man’s gaze froze.
”Huh, what’s that?”
The Long-browed True Man stopped.
At this time, in front of him, a large expanse of silt appeared.
Only in the very middle of the silt, faintly, as if there was a log exposed outside the silt.
”Could it be ebony?”
Ebony, also known as the Oriental magic wood, refers to some trees that are buried in the silt and finally form ebony after thousands of years of carbonization.
This kind of wood is priceless. As the saying goes, “Half a square of ebony at home is better than a box of treasures.”
Moreover, ebony is also the best material for making amulets.
”If it’s really ebony, then I’m rich.”
Because the distance was a bit far and the Long-browed True Man couldn’t see clearly, he immediately took out a Flame Talisman.
”Swift!”
The Long-browed True Man waved his right hand and the Flame Talisman was thrown out.
Strangely enough, although it was at the bottom of the river, the Flame Talisman was not affected and burned instantly, like a star, extremely dazzling at the bottom of the river.
In an instant, the Long-browed True Man’s vision became clear.
Everything within a radius of ten meters was clearly visible.
This time he could see clearly that the thing in the silt was not a kind of wood, but a half-meter-long ox horn as thick as a bowl.
“Hmm, why is it an ox horn?”
The Long-browed True Man was a bit surprised. “Could it be that a cow died here?”
“No, there is no such a big cow.”
The Long-browed True Man took out a copper coin from the cuff of his Taoist robe and flicked it with his finger.
Whoosh——
The copper coin was like a bullet, passing through the river water and hitting the ox horn.
“Dang!”
A dull metal collision sound rang out.
“Bronze ware?”
The eyes of the Long-browed True Man lit up, and he immediately realized that he had encountered a treasure.
“The ox horn is exposed outside the silt. Does this mean that the complete cow body is in the silt?”
“If this is really the case, then this is definitely a national treasure.”
“Oh my god, I really found a treasure this time.”
The Long-browed True Man excitedly rubbed his hands, and with a flick of his body, in the blink of an eye, his right foot lightly stepped on the ox horn.
Then, the Long-browed True Man bent down and touched the ox horn.
The touch was cold.
“Yes, it’s bronze ware.” The Long-browed True Man couldn’t contain the excitement in his heart. He clenched the ox horn with his right hand, turned his body upside down, and then shouted loudly: “Pull up!”
Unexpectedly, the ox horn didn’t move at all.
Unexpectedly, the Long-browed True Man became even more excited.
“My guess is correct. This is a complete bronze ox. I just don’t know what era it is from.”
The Long-browed True Man directly used nine channels of true energy, circulating all the strength of his body to his right arm, and then let out a loud shout.
“Rise!”
Weng——
The ox horn was finally shaken, and the silt sank slightly, but it was only shaken once.
The Long-browed True Man’s face showed shock.
“Although I’m not as abnormal as that little brat, the force I just exerted was at least several thousand catties, but it only made this bronze ox tremble slightly. From this, it can be seen that this bronze ox weighs at least ten thousand catties.”
“Not to mention that it’s a precious bronze vessel, even if it’s sold by the catty, it can fetch a lot of money.”
“The little brat didn’t lie to me. He’s so kind to me.”
After the chanting is over, the Long-browed True Man began to think about how to get this bronze ox out.
But after thinking about it, he couldn’t think of a way.
After all, this bronze ox is stuck in the silt and is extremely heavy.
“It seems that I can only ask the little brat to take action. His strength is great, and he should be able to get this bronze ox back for me.”
Then, the Long-browed True Man was in a dilemma again.
“No, no. What if the little brat takes a fancy to this treasure and wants to fight me for it?”
“Give it to him? I’m reluctant, after all, this is a precious bronze vessel.”
“If I don’t give it to him, the little brat will beat me up again.”
“I’m so hard up…”
The Long-browed True Man frowned tightly, in a dilemma.
Just at this moment, with a “boom”, the ox horn suddenly moved, and then, the silt around kept sinking.
In an instant, the entire bronze ox was revealed.
After the Long-browed True Man saw it clearly, he immediately took a deep breath in surprise.
“Hiss — so big!”
This was a bronze-cast rhinoceros, about three meters long and about two meters high, with a single horn facing the sky and bright eyes, and a majestic shape.
There was also an inscription engraved on the back of the rhinoceros.
“Hundred-refined bronze, transforming into a spiritual rhinoceros, bravely defending the Lingjiang River, forever suppressing the waves.”
There was also a line of small characters beside it.
“Cast in the third year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty!”
After the Long-browed True Man saw these words clearly, his excitement instantly disappeared, and he cursed loudly:
“Damn it, I thought it was some kind of treasure, but it turns out to be just a water-suppressing divine beast.”
“It’s still something from the Kangxi period, and it’s not worth any money at all.”
“It made me waste so much effort.”
Suddenly, the Long-browed True Man stared at the bronze rhinoceros, rolled his eyes, and said in a low voice: “Should I rebury it in the silt and then tell the little brat that there is a treasure here, making him happy for nothing?”
After thinking about it, the Long-browed True Man finally gave up.
“Forget it. This water-suppressing divine beast is too heavy. Instead of using it to tease the little brat, I might as well go look for treasures.”
“Since a water-suppressing divine beast has appeared at the bottom of the river, there must be other treasures.”
The Long-browed True Man thought of this and was about to leave.
Just then, he suddenly felt his lower leg go cold. Looking down, he saw a black handprint on his ankle, like that of a baby’s palm.
