Chapter 8 Tiankeng and Yin River

Fu Ying said leisurely: "In fact, my cousin and I have never been to that place, only my great-grandfather and grandfather know, because it is too dangerous, I will not mention it again after the last failure, including my parents." ”

Zhou Xuan was strange, and asked her puzzled: "Since you and your cousin don't know the address of that place, what's the use of you recruiting people?" Listening to what you said, your great-grandfather and your grandfather were worried about their safety, and they wouldn't tell you that address, so wasn't that a waste of work? ”

"Don't worry about that!" Fu Ying said slowly, "I don't need to ask my great-grandfather for the address, ask my grandfather, my grandfather's mind, I don't know yet, he is mainly worried about safety, they used to go because the equipment was too poor, but now it is different, high-tech things can make up for a lot of artificial deficiencies, as long as they are well prepared, my grandfather will agree, my great-grandfather is going to be ninety-eight years old, what he doesn't think about all the time is this matter, as long as we are well prepared, grandpa will agree!" ”

The key is how dangerous this matter is, if it is just diving into deep water, it is better to say, Zhou Xuan also has a spectrum in his heart, when he dives into deep water, he will feel it, and when he can no longer dive, he will not continue, but he thought of a question in his heart: "Miss Fu, you said that it is a matter of diving, then I ask you, with your family's financial resources, it is not a big problem to buy a small submarine, but the machine is more than the diving ability of people, I don't know how many times, you don't know, right?" ”

Fu Ying shook her head and said, "Of course I know, although we haven't been there, my great-grandfather told this story to our cousins when we were very young, pit, have you heard of it?" ”

β€œpitοΌŸβ€ Zhou Xuan frowned and shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, and besides, you don't know that I'm very good at English!" ”

Fu Ying said lightly: "I didn't mean to laugh at you, I just said it naturally, pit is the meaning of sinkhole, you know sinkhole, right?" ”

Zhou Xuan was stunned for a moment, and said: "I should know the sinkhole, there are many places in my hometown, what sinkhole dragon cave, bottomless hole, there are many, but few people have gone down, the cliffs on all sides, I heard that there is a Yin River below, there are dragons, dragons, Jiao, or other monsters, of course, I have never been there, and I have never seen such a monster." ”

Fu Ying said: "Of course, that only legend, pit is the meaning of English sinkhole, because the most influential sinkhole in the world is also China, so the international academic community in 2005, organized an international karst sinkhole investigation team in Chongqing, Guangxi in China, after a large-scale investigation, took 'sinkhole' as a term, and began to use the Chinese pinyin of 'tiankeng' to pass internationally, and the place we are going to is also a sinkhole!" ”

Zhou Xuan was a little stunned, the moon in foreign countries is the same as the moon in China, the sinkhole is estimated to be roughly no different from the sinkhole in China, the mystery of the sinkhole, it is the same as when I was a child, adults scared children and said that there was a ghost outside, and the image in Zhou Xuan's heart was not much known except for mystery and horror.

"The place where my great-great-grandfather went should be a place in the primeval forest of southern North America, according to my great-grandfather, that place is very mysterious, there was a helicopter flying from there and being sucked into the sinkhole, the sinkhole is surrounded by cliffs, the area inside is about four or five thousand square meters, the depth is more than six hundred meters, the bottom of it is a jungle, many plants have never been seen, in the westernmost part of the sinkhole, there is a circular puddle with a diameter of only two meters wide, the water flow in the puddle is very fast, and it is also very frozen, the water temperature is only two or three degrees, The inner layer of the puddle is an undercurrent from west to east, which is 'Yin River' in Chinese terms. ”

When Fu Ying said this, she felt a little thirsty, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, the tea was already cold.

Zhou Xuan was stunned when he heard it, and only asked for a long time: "It's just a matter of going to the sinkhole, won't you go to the Yin River in that puddle?" ”

Fu Ying nodded seriously, and then said: "Yes, it was in that pool, my great-grandfather once took people to go four times, and invited a master of diving to go down, but no matter how many people went down, they never came out, and the people who went down were tied with ropes before they went into the water, and only the broken rope head was recovered, because the entrance to the waterhole is very narrow, only about two meters, it is impossible to put down a small submarine, so there is no way to use those, only to dive down with people, my great-grandfather used ropes to tie stones to measure the depth of the water, It's about 200 meters, but the undercurrent in the water layer is very fast, and I don't know this number for sure. ”

Zhou Xuan really gasped at this time!

This task is really not simple, the gringos may be naturally bold, the Wolf brothers and Elena knew that it was such a task, but they still came without anything, Zhou Xuan really admired, but for him, he was not in the mood!

Zhou Xuan would rather fish for a shipwreck in the deep sea than dive into the Yin River, and this difference is big in his heart.

Although the ocean is deeper and larger, the danger layer will not be as big as this dark river, the unknown number in the dark river is too large, and modern high-tech machinery and machines are limited by the terrain and space and cannot be used, which adds to the difficulty of not being able to rescue in the event of an accident.

At this time, the lettuce was almost served, but Zhou Xuan had no appetite, thought about it, and said to Fu Ying: "Miss Fu, I think, I can tell you the truth, I don't object to diving, even if it is a deep sea, I will try it, but only the underground undercurrent in this sinkhole, I don't want to, but, since I have arrived in the United States, if your grandfather will tell you the location, I still want to go to that place to have a look, I may not agree, I won't accept your money, I'll go out by myself, You also know, just rush that piece of jade, I also have a net worth of tens of millions, money is not a problem, and no matter how much money you have, it is not expensive! ”

Zhou Xuan said bluntly, but it is also a normal reaction of a person, of course, except for those who like to take risks very much, or are very short of money, some come for adventure, and some come for money, Zhou Xuan also came at the beginning thinking that this thing would not be too difficult and he could make a lot of money, but now money is really nothing to him, it doesn't matter if he is timid, or if he is incompetent, he will not do it anyway to gamble his life on these millions.

Fu Ying didn't force it this time, nodded and said: "This is natural, you can go and see it if you want to, whether you agree to go into the water or not is the freedom of all of you, we will never force it, nor will we force it, the reason why I will explain it to you now, everything has to be based on your willingness." ”

smiled faintly, and said, "Don't say it, let's eat, the dishes are cold." ”
