Following the direction of Ye Tian's finger, Matisse looked at the bulkhead facing the stern of the freighter.
After taking a closer look, he realized what Ye Tian said was wrong.
There is a recessed pit about one and a half meters high on the bulkhead. Due to the corrosion of the bulkhead and the refraction of sea water, it is not very obvious and cannot be seen without paying attention.
Obviously, it was the result of the impact of heavy objects during the sinking of the freighter.
However, what really surprised Ye Tian and Matisse was not the sunken pit, but the two cracks that appeared on the bulkhead.
They are on the edge of the dent, with one crack on top and another on the side, and the two cracks are connected to each other at one end.
What's more important is that the two cracks are very straight, as if they were cut with a ruler.
It is not an easy task to make a dent in the hard bulkhead. You must know that this is the crew cabin, not the cargo hold, and there is nothing too heavy.
And it is even more impossible to create two straight cracks!
Then there is only one possibility. There is an empty space behind the bulkhead, and there is something else. It is probably a hidden cabin, or a secret treasure room hiding gold, jewels and diamonds.
Thinking of this, people suddenly became more excited, staring at the two cracks one by one.
The foreplay has been completed and it’s time to get down to business!
Ye Tian swung his legs lightly, swam to the bulkhead, pointed at the dent and two cracks and said:
"If I guessed correctly, there should be a secret cabin behind this bulkhead, maybe a treasure room, and this is the door to the secret cabin.
As you can see, this iron single bed is fixed on this bulkhead. As long as the single bed is pushed open, the door of this secret cabin can be opened.
I have to say that the design of this secret cabin is very clever and original! If it weren't for the cracks caused by the impact during the sinking of the freighter, it would be difficult for me to find it.
What is hidden in this secret cabin? Gold and jewelry are still empty? I’m very curious, and I believe everyone is too, so let’s open it and take a look!
Matisse, you shine the searchlight here, and I will open the door of this secret cabin and see what I can find. Maybe it will be a nice surprise! "
After speaking, Ye Tian quickly adjusted his body posture, stepped on the angle between the bulkhead and the floor, and held the edge of the iron single bed tightly with both hands, preparing to use force to pull it open.
At the same time, the powerful beam projected by the searchlight in Matisse's hand has enveloped the area, illuminating it brightly.
Same as before, Ye Tian first felt it, and then he suddenly exerted force and began to pull the iron single bed outwards, trying to open the secret hatch.
As he moved, the two cracks on the bulkhead suddenly became larger and larger, and a crack also appeared on the other side of the single bed, intersecting with the other end of the crack below!
The rust attached to the bulkheads and cracks began to fall off in large pieces, falling directly into the sea water.
Slowly, the secret cabin door was opened bit by bit by Ye Tian, and the secret cabin hidden behind it, which had been sleeping in the darkness for more than seventy years, once again welcomed the light.
At this time, the live broadcast was already completely boiling.
"Wow! There is indeed a secret cabin behind that bulkhead. I wonder what is hidden in it? Is it gold or jewelry and diamonds? It's so exciting."
"Steven is definitely God's darling. He is extremely lucky and has extremely keen observation. He can discover such a secret cabin at a glance. I have to admire him!"
In the midst of people's discussion, the iron door of the secret cabin opened wider and wider, and a cabin door about one meter high and just over one meter wide gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Until the cabin door was fully opened, Ye Tian let go of the single bed, swung his legs lightly and swam to the iron door, looking into the secret cabin with the powerful beam of the searchlight.
The next moment, a dozen dark green and black crates of different sizes and specifications appeared in front of everyone, scattered in the small secret cabin.
The moment they saw those crates, Ye Tian and the others, as well as many people on the live broadcast, immediately understood what was in this secret cabin.
"Hey!"
Many people on the live broadcast gave a long sigh and were slightly disappointed.
Before the people sighed, Ye Tian's clear voice came again, and his tone was still very relaxed, without any hint of disappointment.
"It is a pity that this is not a treasure room. What is hidden inside is not the dazzling and charming Nacui gold and jewelry diamonds, but a large number of deadly weapons!
From our perspective, this cabin seems to contain boxes containing rifles, wooden boxes containing ammunition, and boxes containing grenades. The number seems quite large!
We still need to go in and explore the specific weapons and ammunition inside. I hope to find some antique firearms that are valuable and in good condition. That would be great too! "
After saying that, Ye Tian swung his legs and swam into the secret cabin, while Matisse stayed outside and used a searchlight to illuminate it through the open door.
It was two or three minutes later when Ye Tian came out again.
When he came out of the secret cabin, he was carrying a rusty spear in each hand, which was very eye-catching!
He came to the crew cabin outside and stabilized himself with the help of the hatch, and then he said loudly:
"The two long guns I am carrying now came from the secret cabin behind me. One is the famous Mauser 98K rifle, and the other is the MG42 machine gun known as the 'Hitler's Chainsaw'.
This secret cabin stores a lot of weapons and ammunition, and they are all standard equipment of the German army in World War II, including 98K rifles, MG42 machine guns, MP40 submachine guns, and the supporting ammunition for these firearms.
In addition, there are several boxes of grenades, several boxes of anti-tank rockets called "Iron Fist", etc. Obviously, this secret cabin is a weapons arsenal, and the weapons stored in it are very sophisticated.
The discovery of a secret weapons depot on this freighter was completely within my expectations. It was a normal thing. This was also a tactic prepared by Rommel's men, and it was quite thoughtful.
It is completely conceivable that if they can fish in troubled waters and successfully pass through the English Channel and arrive at the port in Germany, these weapons and ammunition will not appear and will not be used!
If their whereabouts are exposed, the German soldiers disguised as crew members on the freighter will immediately open the secret cabin, take out the weapons hidden inside, and fight the intruders!
Unfortunately, what attacked the freighter and caused it to quickly sink to the bottom of the sea was not enemy soldiers or anyone else, but mines placed in the English Channel.
I have to say that those German soldiers were very unlucky, but we were very lucky. Of course, there is a premise here, that is, this freighter is indeed full of Rommel's gold, jewelry and diamonds! "
Next, Ye Tian briefly introduced the 98K rifle and MG42 machine gun in his hand, giving a lecture on German weapons during World War II to countless viewers on the live broadcast!
After the introduction, he threw the two spears back into the secret cabin, pushed the door open again, and restored it to its original state!
He was not interested at all in the rusty German weapons and ammunition in the secret cabin.
If those weapons and ammunition were well preserved, they might still be worth some money, but now they are worthless, just a pile of rusty scrap copper and iron!
Of course, just because he is not interested does not mean that others are not interested either. It is estimated that the German government is still somewhat interested.
For the German government, those weapons and ammunition are historical relics and have certain research value. Maybe they can find something valuable in them.
At this point, the cargo ship's deck has been explored. Just like the situation on the main deck, there are no surprising discoveries, which is somewhat disappointing!
Then it’s time to enter the lower cabin, which is the focus of everyone’s attention.
