"You're quite skilled at paddling, don't you feel like you haven't practiced, what's going on with you the day before yesterday?" Zhu Wei followed behind Bai Yujing, barely able to keep up with Bai Yujing's speed.

Bai Yujing smiled: "I haven't crossed it for a long time, and now I'm slowly finding some touch!"

Bai Yujing stepped on skis and glided on the snow, the searchlight on his head patrolled the surrounding situation, although it was the polar night, but there was no complete darkness like the inland night, the stars in the sky and the moon that appeared for a few hours a day could bring a certain amount of light to the earth.

What Bai Yujing didn't expect was that everyone present could ski, and they were very skilled, including Zhu Wei, and Bai Yujing was a guy who could only rub on the ground with a snowboard.

After arriving at the destination, Bai Yujing and Zhou Jun led the team separately, Bai Yujing and Zhu Wei in pairs, Zhou Jun and Wen Feng in pairs, and went to two places to explore, mainly to make the local terrain and exploration clear, draw a simple topographic map, and then come back to let Zhu Wei and Wen Feng analyze the possibility of prehistoric civilization.

Although there is no distinction between day and night, everyone still follows the normal schedule of activities, exploring the target area separately during the day, and returning to the camp at night to summarize the harvest and rest state.

Bai Yujing suddenly noticed a burst of red and purple light flashing under his feet, and when he suddenly raised his head, he found that a long ribbon was pulled out of the sky, as if a fairy was waving a ribbon and floating in the sky.

"Aurora!" Bai Yujing stopped, this was the first time Bai Yujing had seen the aurora in Antarctica, it was really an indescribable experience.

The ribbon is like a spirit running out of the dream world, fluttering mischievously in the sky, reflecting the ground is also colorful, the aurora emanates from the corner of the sky, spreading the tentacles all over the starry sky, and the purple-red light band is long pulled over Bai Yujing's head and spreads into the starry sky.

The sky was full of stars reflecting this beautiful scene, echoing each other, making people can't help but open their mouths wide, when Bai Yujing was immersed in this beautiful scene, Zhu Wei had already run to the front.

"We're here!"

Zhu Wei picked out a total of nine locations where there were most likely to be ruins, and Bai Yujing and the others had already explored six, this was the seventh, except for the day spent on the road, it was already the fourth day of departure.

Bai Yujing immediately rushed over, and immediately found himself standing on the top of a cliff, and below was an extremely deep valley, and the frost that had frozen for I didn't know how many years had condensed into layers of traces, like rocks.

At the bottom of the cliff, there is an endless plain-like existence, the whole earth is gentle without the slightest undulation, like a mirror, and the aurora is emitted at the end of this plain, the scene is spectacular.

Bai Yujing took a few photos, which is also Bai Yujing's job along the way, collecting the surrounding terrain and pictures, and then labeling them, there is also a certain pattern when taking pictures, otherwise it will be difficult to use them later.

Zhu Wei said to Bai Yujing, "This should be the most likely location in Atlantis, you look at the terrain here, it should be a very large lake in prehistory, combined with the map, before the Antarctic was frozen, this area of 2,000 square kilometers is a huge land lake, but I don't know if it is a freshwater lake or a saltwater lake." ”

Bai Yujing nodded: "Is there any point in separating freshwater lakes from saltwater lakes?"

Zhu Wei took out the drawings and carefully checked the surrounding scene: "Of course it makes sense, if it is a saltwater lake, it means that this place can be connected to the sea, and the possibility of Atlantis ruins here is very high, on the contrary, if it is a freshwater lake, we can almost rule out the possibility here!"

"The merfolk clan, their city of Atlantis, must be built in a place that can connect to the sea, so as to facilitate their living habits!" Zhu Wei put away the drawings.

Bai Yujing nodded and confirmed Zhu Wei's opinion: "And the place we are looking for is the royal city of Atlantis, for the mermaid clan, this kind of terrain is like a huge natural port, and it is indeed possible to establish the largest city here!"

Zhu Wei took out the rope from her backpack: "Let's go down, if there is a way to find the ice cracks, just find the ice layer that is more than 10,000 years old at the bottom, and find a way to bring it back for testing." ”

Bai Yujing asked: "But the sea water in the Antarctic area is already close to fresh water, not to mention that after freezing, the salt in the sea water will also be desalination and crystallization, is it any use to take it back?"

Zhu Wei glanced at Bai Yujing: "There is still a difference in the laboratory! There are professional instruments in the base station, have you brought your small ice drill machine here?"

Bai Yujing patted the backpack: "It's always in the bag!"

The two of them dug a deep ring pit with a shovel on the top of the cliff, dug about a meter deep, put the rope in the ring pit, as if it were on a stone, the two put down the rope, tied the safety buckle and knot, and began to descend little by little.

The spectacular scene of the ice cliff can not be seen in other places, the special scenery of the polar region, if you want to watch, you have to pay a price, step on the ice cliff and land a little bit, at this time there is a sudden sound on it, and a large amount of snow smashes down.

Bai Yujing was startled, the snow fell on the two of them, and immediately saw the two of them lying on the rope and began to shake from side to side, this scene was simply terrifying, Bai Yujing was also scared, I don't know if there was a problem with the fixation on it, or if there was a more serious avalanche.

After the two stabilized their bodies and breathing, they descended again, and after that, there were no more problems, and the two landed safely, deeply relieved.

Zhu Wei was about to move forward, but Bai Yujing immediately stopped her: "You said it, this was a lake a long time ago, and this kind of terrain is an obvious ice crack area, obviously a place where a large amount of ice gathers, the two of us use ropes to bind both sides, so that even if one of them falls into the ice, which one outside can pull the other out." ”

Zhu Wei nodded: "You are still very thoughtful." ”

Skis and a rope tied to them set off one after the other, heading out to the heart of this snowy plain, hoping to bring them a harvest.

Bai Yujing dragged his skis, and the two of them moved forward slowly, only a few steps forward, Bai Yujing suddenly felt a chill in his heart, as if he sensed some danger in his heart, and quickly took out the gun in his trouser pocket and aimed it at a corner on the side.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Wei also realized that something was wrong and immediately stopped.

Bai Yujing looked at it for a long time, but he didn't find anything, and shook his head: "It's okay! Maybe I'm wrong, I always feel like something is following us just now!"
