Volume 2: Jingzhao Suspicious Cloud Chapter 14 The hidden dragon is in the abyss, and Tengbi is nine days. (5)
"But what does this have to do with earthquakes?" Lu Ye said, "I'm here to investigate earthquakes, not underground currents. ”
"Don't you go out to see the guide?" Lian Qiulan said, "On the way here, I specially checked the information on the Internet, do you guess where is the most amazing place in Shilin Gorge?"
Song Tianlin was stunned for a moment, he pointed to the waterfall beside him, "Don't tell me it's this waterfall......"
"This is this waterfall," Lian Qiulan gave Song Tianlin an approving look, "The most famous place in Shilin Gorge is that on the first day of every lunar month, that is, at the beginning of the new moon, the water level here will drop by several meters, and when the moon is full in the middle of the month, the water level here will return to the previous water level." ”
"Sounds a bit like breathing...... Wait a minute!" Song Tianlin suddenly realized, he took out his mobile phone and called up the analysis results that Leohard sent him, "The time interval of the earthquake seems to be fifteen days! If the underground current here is really related to the earthquake, we may have found a ruin." ”
"Could it be a coincidence......" Lu Ye changed his words after feeling the fool-like eyes from all around, "But we didn't bring diving equipment with us this time, and we don't know what is down here." I don't think it's too late for us to take a long-term view and wait until we find out what's going on here. ”
Song Tianlin came to the waterhole and picked up a stone and threw it in, the water was crisp, "The waterhole is not deep, with our physical conditions, even if we don't have equipment, there should be no problem." ”
"Today's opportunity is very rare, the scenic spot will not close until twelve o'clock, we can take advantage of the night to go down and have a look," Lian Qiulan said, "and the next time we come in...... We still have to buy tickets. ”
The three of them turned their gaze to Lu Ye, who was looking down and pondering, looking like he was considering the feasibility of the plan, but in fact he was actually thinking about whether it would be worth it to buy a ticket next time.
"Tonight, then. It's still early, so let's go around the corner to find the blind spot and see if there are any other discoveries around. Lu Ye waved his hand, quite arrogant.
The café is located opposite the scenic area, and the door is hung with a "temporarily closed" sign.
The café reverberated with the melodious waltz of "Tales from the Vienna Woods", and Zhou Jinyu sat near the window, watching the crowd and picking up the coffee in front of her.
Not long after, a person walked in the café and sat opposite Zhou Jinyu, and the waiter at the café hurriedly walked over, "I'm sorry sir, we are not open today." ”
Zhou Jinyu turned her head, and the coffee cup was not held steady, and suddenly spilled on the table, "What the hell are you dressing up?"
"I'm sorry, this is my friend. Zhou Jinyu smiled at the waiter, "Please clean up and help me change a glass." ”
"I just bought it from Heilan House, I saw what kind of man's wardrobe it said it was, so I went in to take a look, and the clothes inside were still very good. The man got up and spun around, turned to the waiter and said, "Please bring me a cup of freshly ground Blue Mountain." ”
The waiter looked at Zhou Jinyu, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he turned around and left, thinking that his boss was really weird, and the friends he made were weird. Obviously, he can make a lot of money with today's meteor shower, but he chose to close the door to thank customers, and he doesn't know what the boss is thinking in his head, forget it, anyway, he doesn't have to be too tired with a salary that is more generous than that of a white-collar worker every month, so why not?
"And what's on your face?"
Zhou Jinyu looked at each other helplessly, if he didn't count his head, the person sitting opposite him was probably a middle-aged uncle about forty years old, but if he counted his head, it would be a bit nondescript. A brown velvet hat, black windproof goggles, and a skull tooth mask with a zipper completely obscured the entire face, as if for fear that he would be recognized.
"I was skiing in the Alps when you called me. The man leaned on the back and stretched, "I didn't even change my clothes." ”
"Long Yuan invited Hidden Mist to investigate the earthquake situation in the Jingzhao area. Zhou Jinyu pushed the photo on the table towards the man, stared at the back kitchen of the café and said slowly, "They have found the target location." ”
"Wouldn't this be great? If it weren't for the help of the hidden mist, Lu Ye's brain might not have been able to find him here for two years, and I would have to find a way to lure him into the bait. The man changed to a more comfortable position.
"I met Song Tianlin in the scenic spot today, and it is estimated that Su Ru is also there, which is not in our plan. ”
"It's a bit of a surprise, but ......" The waiter came out of the back kitchen with two cups of coffee, and the man closed his mouth just in time.
"There's nothing to do today, I'll give you half a day off. Zhou Jinyu smiled and said, "Remember to go to work on time tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay, boss!"
Watching the waiter leave, the man took a straw from the box next to him, then opened the mask and took a small sip, slowly sipping his coffee.
"Listen to what you mean, you're not worried that Song Tianlin and his wife will ruin our plan?"
"Of course, it was a bonus. Stuart doesn't have many people to use now, if there are two more generals...... I suddenly looked forward to his expression when he knew that Song Tianlin and Su Ru had disappeared. The man shrugged, "Although Song Tianlin and his wife are difficult to deal with, the things in there are not vegetarians, they are monsters that eat people and don't spit out bones, except for the priest, sending anyone from the Hidden Mist will not affect the result." ”
"Actually, you already thought that Stuart would send Song Tianlin and his wife over. Zhou Jinyu added two pieces of sugar to the coffee machine, and then stirred slowly.
"No, I said that it was a surprise for me that Song Tianlin and his wife came to Jingzhao, I was going to do it on their way to pick up Song Yuan, but it turned out that someone was the first to pick up Song Yuan, and it was the Preston waste who went to pick up Song Yuan. ”
"Speaking of Song Yuan, you seem to be very attentive to him!" Zhou Jinyu smiled, "If it weren't for the fact that you and Su Ru were mortal enemies, I would have thought that Song Yuan's child was born to you." ”
"I'm obsessed with Song Yuan, it's all because he has the power to destroy the world," the man stood up, "The picture scroll of the Kingdom of God is about to unfold, and I am looking forward to what this world will become in the end." ”
As the sky darkened, Song Tianlin returned to the waterhole.
To be on the safe side, Lu Ye sent some equipment for observing meteors, and set up a tent next to the waterhole to make a scene.
He wanted to sneak in the diving equipment as well, but it was too much of an eyesore to find an excuse, so he had to give up.
"There are two cameras nearby, corresponding to the cliff in the southeast corner and the river in the northeast corner," Lian Qiulan sketched out the area where the two cameras could see on her notebook, "The field of view of the two cameras overlaps, and this location happens to be the camera's monitoring blind spot." ”
"There wasn't much to discover around. "Now there is basically no one in the vicinity, but there are patrols, and the patrol staff passes by about once an hour, and it has been 54 minutes since the last patrol, so we need someone to stay here." ”
"Qiu Lan, you stay to deal with the patrol staff, and the three of us go down. Lu Ye nodded and began the final preparations.
"We don't have underwater communication equipment, in case something happens to you......"
Even Qiu Lan was slapped by Lu Ye before she finished speaking, "Dead girl, don't crow's mouth!"
Song Tianlin held Su Ru's hand, took a deep breath, and the two jumped into the water at the same time.
"I had a hunch that it would be time to sprinkle dog food. Lu Ye made a joke and jumped in.
The average unequipped dive time for humans is three minutes, while the aliens can hold their breath underwater for nearly ten minutes due to their strong physical fitness and oxygen utilization.
Song Tianlin turned on the strong flashlight, the white hernia light could only illuminate the space about five meters in front of him, and the underwater situation was more complicated than Song Tianlin thought, with a large number of aquatic plants all over the water. As the water flowing down from the waterfall continues to hit the bottom, a large amount of sediment is stirred up, and the view is poor.
The geology of the Shilinxia Scenic Area is dominated by quartz sandstone, and these quartz sandstones also have this narrow silty soft layer, which also leads to the crisscrossing of faults or fissures in different directions, different properties and different scales in the sandstone layer, which are continuously widened and deepened under the erosion of the water flow, forming a cluster of cone-like underwater rocks.
Song Tianlin pointed above Su Ru and then gestured, meaning to wait for Lu Ye to come down.
Lu Ye was paddling with some difficulty, and there were still two broken aquatic plants on his feet. He chose the wrong spot when he first entered the water, which was a dense area of seaweed, and as soon as he entered the water, he was entangled by the aquatic weeds, and it took him a lot of effort to break free from the shackles of the aquatic weeds, and he changed his breath on the surface of the water before continuing to dive.
Lu Ye came to Song Tianlin's side and gave a thumbs up, indicating that he could continue.
The three of them groped for a long time under the water, and there were no cone-shaped rocks except aquatic plants, not to mention fish, or even shellfish molluscs. At a depth of more than ten meters, the silence was terrifying.
Lian Qiulan sat by the water with her head bowed. After Lu Ye went into the water, she always felt as if she had missed something, she picked up her notebook and did another calculation, and the results were exactly the same.
"What the hell is ......?"
Just as she was trying to remember, an alarm suddenly sounded from a black instrument beside her.
It was a portable seismograph, and at this moment, the straight lines that had appeared on the screen of the seismograph shook slightly, and she looked up, and a full moon hung high in the sky.
She understood what she was missing, today is November 24th, the 15th day of the 10th month of the lunar calendar!
A meteor pierced the night sky, and Zen Master Pudu looked at the sky and whispered, "Reveal the truth, reveal the truth, Polo reveal the truth, Polo monk reveal the truth, Bodhisattva Bha......"
