【Chapter 672】 Mirage Palace
At two o'clock in the morning, at Pier 3 of the Namco Research Center, two of the latest B36 speedboats produced by Changzhou Shipyard started their engines, turned on the powerful searchlights on the bows, and left the dock with the humming of the motors, plowing two white waterways on the water.

The powerful searchlight used for scientific research is extremely penetrating, and since the establishment of the observatory, it has patrolled the lake at night more than once, and although the fog is thick, most of the time, there is no problem in coping with it.
Today, however, is an exception.
When the speedboat sailed more than ten kilometers from the shore, it was as if it had sailed into a fairyland, the thick fog seemed to condense the dry ice on the stage, and the range of the powerful searchlight was reduced sharply, almost to a tenth of the usual level, maybe less.
But even the range illuminated by the searchlight was still white, and only a pure white pillar of light could be seen.
The scientists on the speedboat looked at each other, they had never seen such a strange situation, and they could no longer think of the scene observed in the telescope, and they couldn't help but feel uneasy in their hearts.
The operator slowed down, and the speedboat moved slowly like a turtle. The observer opened his notebook in the cabin and stared intently at the satellite navigation map.
Such a dense fog, if it were replaced by ordinary speedboat fishing boats, it would have been lost in it.
Where did intern Zhou Xiaocang see the battle, the fog floating onto the ship, seriously blocking the line of sight, from the bow of the ship and even the stern could not be seen, he was stunned, and couldn't help but whisper: "Director, it's only five hours before dawn, look, is it a daytime inspection, the line of sight is clearer?"
Xiao Zhenbo held on to the side of the ship, frowned, and said coldly after a while: "Xiao Zhou, courage is a necessary quality for a scientific researcher. Five hours? Do you know what it means? It means an earthquake, an avalanche, it's all done. We must be responsible for the country and the people. ”
Zhou Xiaocang's face was hot, he tightened his collar, smiled, but secretly scolded in his heart: Is Lao Tzu a fool? The bullshit earthquake is clearly a supernatural phenomenon.
Xiao Zhenbo tried to observe with a telescope, but the lens was white, he took out his compass and asked, "How far is it?"
"Seven or eight kilometers away. The observer tapped on the keyboard and said with an embarrassed expression: "At our current speed, it will take at least more than two hours." ”
Xiao Zhenbo's face was ugly, he closed the compass, frowned at the vast sea of fog, and suddenly said, "Xiao Liu, contact Boat No. 2 and ask them to prepare diving equipment." ”
"Director. ”
Lao He, the administrator of the logistics room, who is nearly fifty years old and has many years of experience in sailing, frowned when he heard this: "Our diving equipment is not enough to cope with low temperatures. And underwater sight, even with lighting, is very dangerous. ”
"I know. Xiao Zhenbo said undoubtedly: "It won't be too far, just observe the general situation underwater." ”
No sooner had he given the order than the stern engine suddenly rattled and the speedboat lost power and came to a standstill.
The operator operated three times in a row, but the engine could not start, and the sweat on his forehead came out in a hurry, and he said urgently: "Director, the engine has failed." ”
Zhou Xiaocang's heart sudden, and he couldn't help but grab the side of the ship.
"Immediate overhaul. ”
"Report one, report one, boat number two, boat engine failure, boat number two engine failure. ”
"What?"
At this time, the whole ship was not calm, it may be a coincidence that one ship broke down, and the probability of two ships having the same failure at the same time was very small.
Even wearing heavy winter clothing, everyone instantly got goosebumps.
Zhou Xiaocang's face was almost green, he cursed Xiao Zhenbo in his heart, his hand holding the side of the boat also loosened, and his whole body began to squeeze towards the center of the cabin.
An image arose in his mind: a huge shadow swaying through the bottom of the boat, then suddenly leaping out of the water, smashing over the speedboat, and starting to eat......
"Where's the diver? Ready?"
Lao He had a straight temper, and when he encountered such a situation, there was obviously danger in the water, and Xiao Zhenbo still insisted on letting the divers go into the water, isn't this sending them to death? He couldn't help but say angrily: "Director, human life is at stake! We can't be so hasty." ”
Xiao Zhenbo raised his eyebrows, and another scientist also said in a displeased tone: "I don't recommend going into the water either." ”
Seeing that everyone disagreed, Xiao Zhenbo was silent for a while, so he had to wave his hand and sigh: "Set up the oars and prepare to return." ”
Zhou Xiaocang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and recited Amitabha Buddha.
At this moment, the change suddenly occurred, and the cabin suddenly shook, as if it was about to capsize, and everyone was frightened and vomited, clutching the place where they could. The boatman in the stern of the boat suddenly screamed: "Underwater, there is something underwater." ”
The scientist at the stern of the boat had the courage to take a look, his scalp was numb for a while, and under the dark blue lake, a dazzling golden light was revealed, and the glazed tiles were layered in the golden light, and the roof ridge was straight, and even a hideous spine beast could be clearly seen standing on the corner of the eaves.
"Palace...... Palaces, there are palaces under the water. ”
His voice shivered in the cold wind, clearly shocked.
The rest of the people also lay on their stomachs and looked down on the lake, and as far as they could see, a little golden light gradually lit up, spreading in all directions, and a magnificent and magnificent temple outline gradually appeared.
As the outline froze, everyone's eyes widened, and half of the sea water in their minds was chaotic.
Subsequently, an overwhelming and terrifying aura crushed from all directions, making people's chests feel stuffy and their spirits were highly tense, just like standing on a battlefield mountain, facing thousands of troops alone.
It was a terrifying coercion, and it was terrifying.
Xiao Zhenbo was no exception, he only felt cold all over his body, his heart was sluggish, and he even breathed sluggishly, and in shock, he shouted wildly: "Return home, return immediately." ”
Everyone has long been frightened and petrified, where are they still waving their oars?
The rocking hull suddenly stabilized, as if dragged by a large hand, separated the two waterways, and headed like lightning in the direction from which it came.
Everyone only felt that the fog was blowing on their faces, and the wind was galloping, and in the blink of an eye, the speedboat stopped peacefully, and when they came back to their senses, they were stunned to find that they had returned to the dock.
Everyone looked at each other as if they hadn't left the dock at all, and everything just now was an illusion.
But when they looked back, they were stunned again, and under the misty lake, golden ripples bloomed, and the golden rays were staggered and refracted in the mist, and the light was bizarre, turning into hundreds of rainbow lights.
The Tibetans living on the shores of Lake Namtso woke up, the tourists resting in hotels and inns, and the holy city of Sara, thirty miles away, woke up.
One by one, the lights gradually lit up, and pair of eyes looked at Namco.
The huge rainbow light with a radius of dozens of kilometers illuminates the entire Namco, and the statues, like ancient soldiers, stand proudly on the surface of the lake.
A huge palace complex is a virtual shadow, reflected in the sky by the refraction of light.
It can be clearly seen that the phantom of the golden palace group floats in the golden light, shining, gorgeous and magnificent, eighteen hideous giant beasts of different shapes are crawling outside the golden palace gate that is taller than the triumphal arch, and on the plaque with gold edge on the blue background, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances three big characters: Suiyuan Palace.
The most incredible thing is that there is a golden figure suspended outside the palace, standing with his hands in his hands, standing tall like an arrow, surrounded by golden light. (To be continued.) )
