Part I: "Primordial" Chapter 76 The Ghost Fish in the Lower Spring
Some people say that from the moment we are born, we embark on the road of parting. If parting is a long journey, and we look forward to meeting again.
Luo Zihan sorted out the small clothes that his son promised, and said: "The baby is so painful, and the clothes sent to me can't be worn in one set a day!
Dressed in a tight-fitting cold-proof suit, Meng Zihao silently checked his bags in his study: diving supplies, a compass, a gun, a bayonet, a flashlight, a lock rope, a lighter, and two packs of compressed biscuits. He looked at his watch at 10:30 and gently pushed the door open.
Facing Luo Zihan, she looked at him, Meng Zihao lowered his head, and prepared to walk out.
"Zihao!" Luo Zihan ran over and hugged Meng Zihao, tears flowed silently, and his back was wet.
"You and your son are at home! and the shrimp boy is with you!" Meng Zihao instructed.
"You must come back well!"
Meng Zihao nodded, let go of her hand, took a deep look at his son who was babbling on the bed, and left without looking back.
Walking to the hall of the Qingyu Gang, where Xiaohai, Tieshan, and Ji Feather had already prepared their bags, and were joking with each other and waiting for him, Meng Zihao said seriously: "I am going to die for a lifetime, I have a mission, and I have to go!"
If you are at home, even if I have an accident, and you help take care of Zihan's mother and son, I am also relieved. ”
Chicken Feather walked over, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Your own wife and children, wait for you to come back and take care of yourself! I don't care what bullshit mission you have! Lao Tzu, I just want to see with my own eyes what kind of ghost JB treasure!"
Xiao Hai said: "Big brother, although you can do your business, don't delay the three of us brothers to get rich!
Tie Shan echoed and said, "Yes, let's break together!"
Meng Zihao looked at the three of them, all of them were already thirty-one years old, but they were still like hot-blooded teenagers back then!
He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "Damn, aren't you just going underground! What's so difficult! I'll be shocked when we come back!" After speaking, the four of them walked out of the Qingyu Gang with a smile, got into the car, and ran all the way to Xishan.
When they arrived there, Tang Yuren, Zhang Zhiguo, the six guards, Luo Zixian, and Tang Liren were all waiting for them.
The underground spring could have been entered along the cave, but the cave had been blown up by Tang Liren. So they climbed to the top of the western hill, where there was a sinkhole, the mouth of which was seen from the spring. Tang Yuren looked down, and several guards took the lead in lowering the rope and sliding down smoothly.
Meng Zihao and a few people were not far behind, and a few people were very smooth, and when they landed below, Xiao Hai shouted to Tang Yuren and them: "No problem, come down." ”
Tang Yuren and Zhang Zhiguo tied the ropes and went down, and then Tang Liren grabbed Luo Zixian and whispered: "Zixian, if you can't rest assured that Meng Zihao can't be relieved, I will watch him come back safely for you!
Luo Zixian tied the rope and said, "You don't understand, I'm just this one sister, I have to be responsible for her!"
Tang Liren had no choice, and also slid down the sinkhole along the rope.
Everyone gathered at the bottom of the sinkhole, all wearing the equipment for launching the water, below was a large small square, due to the explosion caused the collapse, now in the ruins only exposed a meter wide underground spring, the water color is bright and clear, but look down to the bottom, dark and gloomy.
Tang Yuren knelt on one leg by the spring, calmly closed her eyes, stretched out her palm to feel in the spring water! Tang Yuren had a very keen perception of the outside world from the moment she was born, the human heart may be complicated, but nature is much simpler, she can easily feel the magnetic field strength of different substances, and at this time she determined that now is the perfect time to go to the underground spring, so she opened her eyes and nodded to everyone.
The six guards opened the way, followed by Tang Yuren, Zhang Zhiguo, Luo Zixian, Tang Liren, and Meng Zihao, and the four of them, jumped off the spring one after another.
As soon as you enter the water, the water temperature is cool, and there is a black hole below, only the mouth of the sinkhole above is glowing with white light. Everyone turned on the searchlight on the head, instantly brightened a lot, the spring water is very clear, and almost do not feel the flow of water, here is more like a deep well, the caliber is more than three meters wide, there are rock walls on all sides, the two of them all the way down to explore, about more than 50 meters down, the water temperature is cold and biting, and finally touched the bottom, which is a flat rock.
Zhang Zhiguo swam over, looked at it carefully, touched the stone with his hand, and then motioned to Tang Yuren to smash the rock layer.
Four guards came over and began to operate the marble machine in their hands, and strings of blisters appeared. After cutting for about five minutes, everyone suddenly felt the rock under their feet vibrate, and the four guards hurriedly stopped the machine and waited for Zhang Zhiguo's order, but at this moment, the rock under their feet was instantly broken, and a strong suction force instantly sucked everyone in, and then fell into the water, this is an underground dark river, just now everyone was swept in by the strong pressure difference, at this time the underground river is like a flood beast, rushing forward, everyone has no resistance in the turbulent water, Tang Liren tightly grasped Luo Zixian's hand, and went down with the rushing underground river。
I don't know how long it took to go all the way, Meng Zihao kept a clear head, and he found that this underground river was not just a passage, when they came just now, they were swept into a hole on the left side with the river, and the river turned a corner, because the hole on the left side was low-lying, and the river just bypassed the wide hole above, and took this path instead. He thought to himself that if the water level was raised, they would be washed into another channel, so this was not the right sentence in the poem, "The autumn water is long, and the road is open"
After everyone rushed into this bend, the surface of the underground river gradually became wider, the water speed gradually calmed down, and some people even blew up the raft and fished everyone up.
As soon as they were counted, the fourteen people were safe and sound, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward in two kayaks, Tang Liren, Luo Zihan and Meng Zihao had a total of six people in a boat, and Tang Yuren and Zhang Zhiguo had eight people in a boat.
The surface of this underground river is more than 20 meters wide, I don't know how deep, it is all pitch black, only the place where the searchlight above their heads sweeps is bright, along the underground river, all the top of their heads are black rock walls, strange shapes, black and wet. The underground river meanders forward as if there was no end in sight.
At this time, Ji Mao picked up a flashlight and shone into the river, the water was very clear, like crystal, Ji Mao was seriously exploring the bottom of the water, and suddenly, a human face appeared under his flashlight!
The chicken feather suddenly felt his scalp explode, and his hands shook in fright, and the flashlight almost fell into the water.
Xiao Hai said, "What are you doing? ”
Ji Mao wondered if his eyes were spent, so he plucked up his courage and shone the flashlight into the water again, this time without looking, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants!
Everyone shone with searchlights, and sure enough, there were hundreds of strange-looking faces floating on the water at some point, hundreds or thousands, and there was no end in sight! It's just that this human face is much smaller than a normal human face, half the size of a palm, but one by one it has a hideous face, like a ghost! Zhang Zhiguo held his glasses and looked at it carefully, and shouted: "Yuren, quickly activate the Nine Turning Lotus Lantern" , Tang Yuren immediately took out the Nine Turns Lotus Lamp, before it could start, the boat broke, eight people fell into the water, and there was a painful wail in an instant, Meng Zihao They nervously used the lamp to shine over, the water surface was blood-red and rolling, at this time a violent circle of light flashed in the water, and soon a girl held a glowing Nine Turns Lotus Lantern and Zhang Zhiguo was led by two guards and swam towards them. They rowed over and scooped them up.
The people on the boat were all shocked, Tang Yuren held the Nine Turning Lotus Lantern tightly in his arms, panting heavily, and the other three people who had just boarded the boat were the same.
The whole boat was encased in the halo of the Nine Lotus Lanterns.
"Professor Zhang, what's going on?" Luo Zixian asked.
Zhang Zhiguo has calmed down a lot, lifted his glasses and said: "These noodles are actually the head of a piranha, which has a history of thousands of years, and this fish has long been extinct, but I didn't expect it to appear here." ”
Saying that, he asked someone to use a bayonet fork to come up, and everyone could see clearly under the light of the nine-turn lotus lamp, a big fish seventy or eighty centimeters long, was struggling there with Sensen's sharp white teeth, and the whole fish body was jet black, and the strange head was very large, and the top of the head was very smooth and wide, and the strange lines on it formed a strange face with a hideous complexion, at this time, this strange face was biting everywhere with a bloody mouth, if this mouth was really bitten, it would have to be a large piece of flesh with blood, and the scalp was numb when I thought about it, which made people afraid!
Just now Tang Yuren's kayak was bitten by this fish with teeth, everyone fell into the water, the six guards were all Deadpool, four of them surrounded them in the middle, and used their flesh to build a solid protective wall to protect their upper peak Tang Yuren, Tang Yuren used this time to turn on the Nine Turns Lotus Lantern, the lights appeared, the fish ran away, but the four Deadpools had been gnawed flesh and blood, revealing the white bones of Sensen.
"Professor, why are these fish afraid of the Nine Turning Lotus Lanterns?" Xiao Hai asked puzzled.
But Ji Mao said: "I'm so afraid! I'm not afraid that none of us will survive! I'm afraid! I'm afraid of everything!"
Tie Shan also said with a pale face: "Yes!
The professor motioned to throw the fish away, and continued, "This fish is mentioned in the book I wrote, "The Ancient Kingdom of Jiuli, and according to legend, the god of war, You Youyou, likes monsters, and he raised a lot of them, and these monsters also helped him achieve many victories. This fish is one of them, called the ghost fish. The continent has disappeared for hundreds of thousands of years! I don't want to hide here! The number is so large, if it weren't for the Nine Turns Lotus Lantern, we would definitely have lost our lives today!"
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and Ji Mao said to Tang Yuren: "How long can you keep this lamp on, don't put it out again! If it is opened early, your four subordinates will not die!"
Tie Shan also chimed in: "Yes, don't go out the lights again!"
Everyone turned off the searchlight on their heads, and with the faint brilliance of the Nine Turns Lotus Lantern, their hearts gradually settled down a lot.
The boat follows the current and moves along the river. Meng Zihao suddenly asked, "Have you heard the sound of a huge flow of water?"
At this time, the speed of the boat suddenly became faster and faster, Tang Yuren held the lamp tightly, the two Deadpools were clinging to her, Tang Liren held Luo Zixian's hand tightly, and the boat flew forward like an arrow off the string......
