Chapter 11: Lake Baikal (11)
On the wide lake, suddenly there was no wind and waves, and the waves that were more than one meter high slapped on the reef on the shore of the lake one after another, making a deafening sound.
The birch forest on the shore of the lake has also undergone a great change at this time, and the snow that had fallen from the previous sunset in the violent turbulence from the ground has restored its former upright and heroic appearance.
From time to time there is the rumbling sound of some boulders rolling down from the top of the mountain, and the scattered wild animals make the entire lakeside look chaotic.
And on the lake, about four or five kilometers offshore, a yacht is speeding on the undulating water.
This is exactly the Yang Zi and his party who discovered the danger from the center of the lake and planned to flee to the shore to take refuge.
"Ah Ling, Ah Feng, why did you all come out?
What about Qiaoqiao? She's okay down there alone, right?"
Looking around on the deck, Yang Zi found that his seasick cameraman companion walked out of the cabin.
"It's okay, she's resting in the cubicle, and we're going to sit down and take a look.
What's going on now? Why did an earthquake suddenly occur?
When we heard that, we thought she was joking!"
"Haha! Don't mention it, it looks like we really didn't choose the right time for this trip.
It's either heavy snow or an earthquake, and it's impossible to play at all.
After this dangerous situation, you can return to the hotel, and you can discuss it with the TV station.
Our next journey, or under the change, rushed directly to Africa. ”
Yang Zi, who had a wry smile on his face, couldn't help but vomit bitterness after replying to Ah Ling.
Hearing him say this, everyone on the ship felt the same way, and they all nodded busily.
"Brother Yang, look, there's something in the water over there!"
Still sighing, Tan Ziqing suddenly pointed to the water in the distance and began to greet his companions loudly.
"It's like a fish, but it's a little too impressive!
Tanzi, let Lao Maozi lean over, and let's see what the hell it is. ”
Following Tan Ziqing's instructions, Yang Zi hurriedly looked into the distance a few times, and then quickly saw what the other party was pointing at.
I saw that on the water one or two hundred meters away from them, a huge black shadow was floating at this time.
The slender lines and dark back are looming in the surface of the lake with the undulations of the waves.
As the yacht approached, the shadow began to swim slowly, and the speed began to get faster and faster.
When Yang Zi and the others were still about twenty meters away from each other, and finally saw its entire body clearly, the speed of the two sides actually began to go hand in hand, and they rushed towards the shore at an average speed very tacitly.
"Ah Ling, Ah Feng, you guys bring the camera over, quick!
It's a fish in front of me, and it's this size, oh my God! It's going to break the record!"
With his amazing eyesight, Yang Zi was the first person to see the true face of the black shadow.
At first, he wasn't sure because the other party was too big. It wasn't until the other party showed his trademark mouth and tail that it was determined.
With a body nearly six meters long and a round front body, no one can hold it.
Despite its size, the fish is not bloated, it swims in the water, and its speed is not inferior to that of a yacht.
According to Yang Zi's estimates, the weight of this big fish is definitely more than a ton, or even a ton and a half. Far beyond the giants he had ever caught before, even the water monsters.
"Brother Yang, this is the fish, do we need to catch it?
Shooting from such a distance, it's a bit difficult to see clearly! Moreover, the yacht is too bumpy now, and the picture is also very unstable.
It's better to think of a way to get closer. ”
Carrying a video camera, Ah Ling asked loudly as he tried his best to adjust the picture.
"Don't talk about the fishing, it's going to cause an earthquake!
Tan Zi, let Lao Maozi speed up, let's try to let Ah Ling take a close-up of it before the other party sinks.
The fish must have been at the bottom of the water, disturbed by the changes from the ground, and then surfaced and did not dare to sink again.
If it had eased up, it would have been difficult to find such a good opportunity again. ”
Rolling his eyes, Yang Zi replied to Ah Ling speechlessly.
In this scene, even if there is a fish hook hanging from the fish's mouth, he has no intention of dealing with the other party.
With such a large size, if you really want to walk it upside down, you don't have to think about it for four or five hours.
Until now, Yang Zi and the others did not know what the situation was on the shore of the lake and how serious the earthquake was.
Under this uncertain situation, he really didn't have much to do to walk the fish.
"Tubu!"
As the sound of the yacht's motor intensified, the speed of the entire vessel skyrocketed in an instant.
Originally, there was a distance of about 20 meters, and before the fish could react, everyone was already close to each other's position less than ten meters.
"Whoa!"
Seeing the behemoth that was always chasing after him, his speed suddenly increased so much, and the fish in the water was also shocked.
After realizing that it could not get rid of its speed, it quickly flicked its tail and slapped a wave on the water, and then its whole body disappeared into the lake in an instant.
"Ah Ling, did you get the picture? The distance just now should be close enough!"
Seeing that the fish had disappeared, Yang Zi hurriedly asked his companion.
"Haha! It's so close, of course it's no problem, especially the action of sweeping the tail just now, it's so handsome, and the shooting location is very clear.
Unfortunately, I couldn't catch it, so the material lost a lot of its appeal. ”
Nodding, Ah Ling still said with a little regret.
"Don't think about it so much!
Haha! This kind of fish, we can see it with our own eyes, it's already rare.
If you don't give up, I'll bring you an oxygen cylinder, and you can go to the water and take a picture with each other. ”
Seeing that he didn't miss the opportunity, Yang Zi was also relieved and joked with his companions easily.
At this time, they were less than two kilometers from the shore, and the outline of the shore of the lake had become clearly visible.
Looking at the birch forest that revealed its original appearance because of the snow falling, as well as the wild animals that occasionally sprang out on the shore of the lake, Yang Zi's mood of relaxation at the beginning suddenly became nervous again.
Even the animals are moving so loudly, it seems that the magnitude of this earthquake must be quite large, and I don't know if there is any damage to the residential area here.
The only thing that can be reassuring is that the houses on Lao Maozi's side are generally low because of the high per capita area.
High-rise buildings like those in China are few in number, so the resistance to earthquakes should be better than those in China.
After thinking about this for a while, as the yacht gradually approached, everyone soon came to the shore of Lake Baikal.
When the ship came to rest, they did not go ashore, but stood on the deck and watched around to understand what the earthquake had caused in the area.
I saw that the birch forest along the shoreline of the lake had completely changed its appearance at this time.
Compared to what they had seen before, the beauty of the silver covering, the falling snow and branches, had already decorated the picture with a mixture.
Many small animals that ran out of the woods were no longer as leisurely as before, they all looked frightened, and the number of them made the group on the boat very eye-opening.
"Tanzi, you ask Lao Maozi if there is an official phone number here, call to find out the next form.
We're running around aimlessly, a little too passively.
Also, let him take the yacht along the shore of the lake back to Puerto Tuta!
If you continue to look like this, I don't know how many moths you can get. ”
After looking at the scene on the shore of the lake, Yang Zi didn't notice too much chaos, so he asked Tan Ziqing to ask Lev about the situation.
"Well, Lev said, let's not be so nervous, this kind of earthquake is more common in them, so it's not a big deal.
This time, at best, it's a bit bigger. ”
After communicating with Lao Maozi, Tan Ziqing actually replied with such a sentence.
Earthquakes are common?
You fighting nations, can you just hang up like this? The water of this lake has trembled to a height of more than one meter, and it is not a problem!
Yang Zi looked at Lao Maozi speechlessly, the other party would start the yacht with an indifferent face, and slowly drove towards the port.
That leisurely look, there really didn't look like he was in a hurry.
Shaking his head, Yang Zi saw that there was no new situation on the shore, so he didn't plan to go to the other party to solve his doubts, but sat on the side, picked up his mobile phone, and began to check the distribution of seismic zones on Baidu.
As a result, the results of this investigation really surprised him, a foreigner.
It turned out that at the bottom of Lake Baikal there was a huge zone of geothermal anomalies.
This special environment makes volcanoes and earthquakes frequent here. According to official statistics, there are more than 2,000 earthquakes in this lake area every year.
Although most of them are small earthquakes that must rely on instruments to detect, such a large number of them still shocked Yang Zi.
This fighting nation, Nima is really big-hearted! Compared to Ah San's opening, people are better here, and even the earthquake is open.
You know, in the more than 2,000 earthquakes, not every time they were so unaware.
At least, the level that Yang Zi and the others encountered today would definitely not be too few.
And this situation, for the locals, is actually commonplace!
Silently sighed at the nerves of the fighting nation, Yang Zi sent the information he found to his companions, and everyone was shocked at the same time, but also relieved.
At this time, the time had reached noon on this day, and after such a disturbance as the earthquake, everyone had no intention of fishing, so they asked Lev to start speeding up the return voyage, planning to go to the hotel to calm down.
