Chapter 6: Diving and Salvage
Different from playing and fishing, the time for diving should not be arranged too early, so Yang Zi and a few people left the hotel at nine o'clock the next day, and rushed to the farmhouse in Daiping leisurely.
It was Dai Ping's wife who received them this time, and everyone already knew each other at dinner yesterday, so it didn't seem too angry to meet this time.
Yang Zi chatted with the other party for a few words, and asked about Dai Ping's whereabouts by the way.
Dai Ping went out very early today, saying that he had rushed to borrow equipment from his classmates, and was now on his way back.
After getting the reply, Yang Zi and the others didn't worry anymore, but found a table and sat down and started chatting about their itinerary today.
Everyone has never dived before, so they are looking forward to the upcoming play.
What's funny is that after Qiaoqiao and Li Yan heard yesterday's story, they didn't agree to go into the water with them, and they were teased by Yang Zi and Qian Gang.
After waiting for more than half an hour, everyone finally saw Dai Ping rushing back with a pickup truck.
He saw a room full of people sitting at home waiting for him, scratched his head, and explained to everyone a little embarrassed.
It turned out that his classmate had drunk too much last night and forgot to prepare for him, and it wasn't until Dai Ping arrived there that he remembered it.
So the two of them cleaned up and prepared over there for a while, which is why they came over so late.
At this time, all the personnel were in place and the equipment was already in place, so they took the luggage they had prepared one by one, and then boarded the ship directly and started to set off.
The place they are going to today belongs to a piece of water on the side of Jiangchuan County, where a lot of relics have been found under the water in the morning, but later because the government's development progress has been blocked, so until now this water area has not been used much.
After sailing on the wide water for more than half an hour, the group arrived at this destination water area at eleven o'clock.
It is located on the edge of several mountain bays, and the water level is not very deep, and the highly visible water allows people to see directly at the bottom of the lake.
A little farther away from them, there were seven or eight boats, and they were all gathered together, and I don't know if they were fishing or something.
Because the distance was still a little far, Yang Zi and the others didn't ask too much curiously, but parked the boat and started their diving trip.
Among the people, the most powerful diving is of course Yang Zi, with the existence of water beads, he has no opponent in this regard.
But when it comes to familiarity with diving, it is only Dai Ping.
He used to like to go to that classmate when he had nothing to do, so he knew the diving equipment and precautions in detail.
Lisuo taught Yang Zi and them to put on diving suits, and Dai Ping also told the two of them some precautions and escape first aid methods in the water.
This is a matter directly related to personal safety, everyone listened to it very patiently, and then Yang Zi and the others began to dive into the water with Dai Ping.
The underwater scenery is wonderful for those who have not seen it, especially the amber water layer of Fuxian Lake, which shows this pure beauty to the extreme.
The excellent visibility of the water allows you to enjoy the scenery within 20 meters of the surrounding area, the small fish that swim leisurely from time to time, the aquatic plants that sway with the current, and some signs of life left by humans in ancient times, all make divers feel very new and enjoy this feeling of another world.
For Yang Zi, today's diving is also a completely new experience, the last time he was in the Qiqi River, he was chased around by a group of fish monsters as soon as he got out of the water, and he didn't have the heart to observe the environment at that time.
And this time, not only can he stay leisurely and leisurely, but there is no danger from the water around him.
The depth of the water column they are in is about 10 meters, which is a very suitable water level for beginners to explore.
It's a pity that there are many people here, otherwise Yang Zi would still want to go to the bottom of the lake to see the situation, after all, the rumors that Dai Ping said yesterday were too mysterious, and they had already attracted his curiosity.
After swimming back and forth underwater for about ten minutes, Yang Zi took an underwater camera to photograph the ruins and broken tiles of many ancient ruins.
The ruins here don't look obvious, except for a few small raised mounds and rocks with artificial marks, which are difficult for the average person to notice without careful observation.
He was having fun here, but suddenly saw Qian Gang and Dai Ping gesturing at him not far away, signaling that he wanted to surface himself.
Yang Zi hurriedly nodded in reply to the other party, and then swam flexibly towards the water.
Before they surfaced, Yang Zi saw that there was already a small wooden boat next to their boat, which looked like one of those ships they had seen before.
Could it be that something is going on?
Yang Zimeng, who was a little puzzled, swiped his hands, and the whole person instantly swept over the water layer four or five meters deep and appeared directly on the side of the cruise ship.
After staying in the cool water for so long, this water poplar has an extremely relaxed feeling.
He held the railing on the side of the ship with both hands and pushed it hard, and the whole person boarded the ship very neatly.
At this time, there were already three strangers on the ship, and Qiaoqiao and Li Yan were negotiating something with them.
The other party's expression looked obviously a little sad, and the middle-aged woman in the middle even had obvious tears on her face.
"Brother Yang, come here.
This aunt and their child are missing, and they want us to help her find it.
Sister Yanyan and I happen to have no bottom in our hearts, so let's get an idea. ”
Seeing Yang Zi get on the boat, Qiaoqiao hurriedly began to greet him.
As soon as he heard that he needed to find someone, Yang Zi rushed over to inquire.
With the descriptions of the people opposite, he gradually understood the reason.
It turned out that the child of the middle-aged woman opposite came to this water to swim yesterday evening, but did not go back all night.
Naturally, the adults were in a hurry, and they hadn't closed their eyes since they found it at night.
And now there are no other clues other than finding the other party's slippers on the nearby shore.
As the saying goes, if you live to see a person die, you have to see a corpse! Although these adults have been prepared for the worst, this person still has to see the last one.
The grieving people first called the police, and then called several nearby salvage teams to help them find someone.
The ships that Yang Zi and the others saw just now were the rescuers found by the other party, but the practices of these rescuers made the adults of the children very desperate.
The total amount of money they asked for was 80,000 yuan, and before they could start looking for it, they asked for half of the deposit there.
How could this poor family come up with such a large sum of money for a while, and almost fainted after saying that their request to rent a few less salvage teams was also denied, this is simply making a fortune.
At this time, the police were still on the way to arrive, and the anxious parents happened to see Yang Zi and them diving here, so they begged Qiaoqiao and them with the idea of trying it out.
After listening to the other party's description, Yang Zi was also very angry, he had seen a lot of news before, saying that some salvage teams were holding corpses and asking for money.
I didn't expect this to be even more excessive today, this person hasn't been found yet, and he actually has to make a deposit directly.
It just so happened that Qian Gang and Dai Ping had also returned to the ship. Several people discussed in unison, and then quickly made a decision to help each other find someone.
Yang Zi first went over to communicate with the parents opposite, asked about the general range of the other child's swimming on weekdays, and then discussed it with Qian Gang and Dai Ping.
The three of them decided that Qian Gang and Dai Ping would search the shallow water area here, while Yang Zi would go to the bottom of the lake that was a little deeper over there to look for it.
The general search and rescue plan was formulated, and Yang Zi and the others did not delay, and with the gratitude of several parents, they went into the water and began to search quickly towards the waters described by the other party.
