The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 241 - 161: The Sunken Ship, the Lost Treasures of Yuanming Garden! (Seeking Subscriptions)_2

Still gotta haul up whatever I've got on the line.

Looks like I've probably hooked a part of some 'gigantic object' again.

This time, the remaining part shouldn't be too heavy, probably around ten tons.

Fang Hao started to reel in his line.

With just this much weight, it's now a piece of cake for him.

The others, watching Fang Hao's performance, were completely befuddled.

They had no clue what was going on.

"??"

"How come I don't get what the streamer is fishing for?"

"Could it really be a fish?"

Mainly because Fang Hao acted so convincingly at first like he had caught a fish.

But as things progressed, they became increasingly perplexed.

They had no idea what was happening.

The ocean is just too mysterious.

"No way, it can't be a fish."

"If he had really caught a fish, would the streamer be this quiet? He'd have shown off by now."

Most of the viewers didn't believe Fang Hao had caught a fish.

Moreover, Fang Hao's manner didn't seem like someone who had caught one.

They understood Fang Hao too well; given his personality, if he had caught a fish, he'd be boasting and showing off by now, not staying as quiet as he was.

So, they were certain it wasn't a fish.

Maybe at first, he did catch a fish, but what happened afterwards was anyone's guess.

Even those on the boat didn't understand what Fang Hao had hooked.

"It can't be another plane, can it?"

Xiao Pang had been fishing with Fang Hao all along, and the way Fang Hao was fishing this time reminded him of the last time they had hooked a plane.

It all felt so familiar.

So, he speculated whether it could be another plane.

The situation where initially it was hard to pull up, then suddenly it felt like the line had snapped and he nearly fell over, and then he continued to reel in the catch.

It was pretty clear that whatever they'd hooked had come apart, and only a part of it had been reeled in.

All speculations could only be confirmed once Fang Hao had hauled the item up.

Everyone watched Fang Hao.

All waiting for him to reel the thing in.

After about ten minutes.

Fang Hao quickly pulled up an object.

Bang.

The thing hadn't even surfaced when a loud noise was heard—it was the object he'd reeled in hitting the side of the boat.

This indicated just how big the caught object was.

The impact also gave the people on the boat quite the scare.

New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.

Fortunately, the impact wasn't serious, so there was no need to worry about the boat being damaged.

But it also piqued everyone's curiosity; all eyes turned to the sea, wanting to know what had been caught.

After Fang Hao adjusted the angle a bit and then began to slowly reel in the object, all the boat's lights were directed at it.

When they finally made out what it was, everyone was shocked.

Because what Fang Hao pulled up looked like a small house.

In fact, it was the superstructure from the upper deck of a ship that Fang Hao had fished up.

This meant... there was a sunken ship beneath the sea.

The superstructure of the ship was covered in rust and mostly corroded, with various marine life attached to it.

No wonder, after all, being underwater, the corrosive nature of sea water is quite strong, and since the ship was made of steel, it would be odd if it didn't rust.

However, it was precisely because the ship was made of metal that it also meant... this ship hadn't been down there for too long.

At most, it was a matter of one or two hundred years.

But it was precisely because the rust was so severe that the superstructure had become detached from the hull and been reeled in by Fang Hao.

"Haha, see, I told you, with the streamer's luck, there's no need to worry, he surely couldn't catch any fish, all of you were overthinking it before."

"Now you can relax, right?"

"What did he catch this time?"

Soon, everyone's attention was captured by this discovery.

"This time it's not a plane, it seems like it's something from a ship."

"This is the superstructure from the ship's deck."

"Holy moly, did the streamer really pull that up?"

"Doesn't that mean there's a sunken ship down there?"

Everyone quickly came to that realization, understanding that there was a shipwreck below.

"The host's strength is seriously terrifying. He managed to fish this up—it's made of metal and probably weighs several tons, right?"

"Could be even more than that."

"Yikes..."

The group was scared by Fang Hao's strength.

"But it might also be due to the buoyancy of the sea water that the host was able to fish it up."

Fortunately, there were other viewers who explained it for Fang Hao, saving him a lot of trouble.

So he didn't have to find reasons to explain.

"What kind of shipwreck is this, exactly?"

Once they knew that what was caught was a shipwreck, everyone got curious about the identity of this ship.

They wanted to know where it came from.

If it was an ordinary shipwreck, of course, it would be worthless.

But if it held other special significance, that would be a different story.

Just like the thousand-year-old shipwreck Fang Hao found in the Tongyang River a long time ago, which was of great value.

Now, they are even building a museum for it, planning to place all the items from the shipwreck inside the museum, making it a sightseeing spot in the future.

A museum built specifically for this shipwreck, you can imagine how many items are inside.

Its value is unimaginable.

So many are also wondering whether this shipwreck under the sea has any value.

"I can't figure it out."

"But this is a steel ship... it probably hasn't been long, maybe just a hundred or two hundred years ago."

The crowd's estimates on time weren't too far off.

What could be so great about such a short period?

Unless the shipwreck contained a lot of Gold and such, that would be different.

"It would be great if there were something to prove the origin of this ship."

Everyone sighed inwardly.

But they knew it was difficult.

Just with a superstructure of a ship, how could you guess?

...

On Fang Hao's side, when he saw what he had fished up, he was a bit speechless himself.

Also, he saw that above this superstructure, there was a... fish head.

Yes, a fish head.

The rest of the fish body seemed to have been bitten off.

And this fish head was quite big, looking like it weighed about thirty or forty pounds.

Such a pity.

Seeing this fish head, Fang Hao's heart was bleeding.

Damn it.

This must have been when he caught a fish that was thrashing around and got noticed by a bigger fish, which chased it all the way here; then the fish got entangled with the shipwreck's superstructure with its fishing line, and its body got bitten off and carried away by the big fish.

Leaving just this fish head, and then this superstructure got tangled up with it.

And then... the next thing was fishing it up.

Fang Hao's speculation was quite reasonable.

He felt like he had guessed most of it.

Now, his heart hurt even more.

His heart was bleeding.

He was so close to catching a fish this time and who would have thought he'd encounter such a situation.

His luck was just too bad.

Left with only a fish head again.

What use was this fish head to him, when he wasn't planning to eat it?

Truly speechless.

The fish was gone, and he fished up a shipwreck, no, part of a shipwreck.

What use could this part of the shipwreck be?

All rusty metal, with lots of seaweed on it, and ocean microorganisms and such.

Even if it were given to a scrap collector, they might not even want it.

A shipwreck like this probably doesn't have anything valuable.

However, Fang Hao still planned to use the Mechanical Eye to check out the origin of this shipwreck.

He didn't bring this thing up onto the boat after all. Now, there was no room for this superstructure on the boat unless they dismantled their cockpit.

Fang Hao just used the fishing rod to keep it afloat, conveniently floating beside the boat.

He first secured the fishing rod onto the boat, to fix it in place, and then he went next to this object for a close inspection; after that, he saw the information about this shipwreck.
