Mount Everest on the Tibetan Plateau, the highest plateau on Earth, and the Mariana Trench, the deepest in the western Pacific Ocean, are also near 30 degrees north latitude. Mountains and rivers are strange, wonders and superb scenery abound: the world-famous Qiantang River Lake, Anhui Huangshan, Jiangxi Lushan, Sichuan Emei Mountain, etc. are all strange and deep mysterious realms.

30 degrees north latitude is not only a place where planes often get into accidents, but also has many famous natural mysteries: the mystery of the pyramids and the sphinx in Egypt, the mystery of the formation of the Dead Sea, the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle, the mystery of the oblique town of Santa Cruz in the United States, the mystery of the extinction of a large number of dinosaurs in Zigong, Sichuan, China, and so on.

At 30 degrees north latitude, it's so weird, so weird, so confusing...... Why do these strange phenomena occur around 30 degrees north latitude? Whether they were accidental coincidences or some kind of intrinsic connection is a mystery that cannot be guessed.

China's Poyang Lake, rippling blue waves, vast, water and sky are connected, endless. The beautiful and rich Poyang Lake has nurtured the people who have lived by the lake for generations, but why has it also given birth to countless tragedies of boat capsizing and death? Is it because it's located at the mysterious 30th parallel?

On April 16, 1945, the Japanese transport ship "Kobe Maru" of more than 2,000 tons sailed to the waters of Lao Ye Temple in the northwest of Poyang Lake, Jiangxi Province, and suddenly disappeared silently (sank to the bottom of the lake), and none of the more than 200 people on board escaped. Subsequently, the Japanese Navy sent people to infiltrate the lake to reconnoitre, and all the people who went into the water mysteriously disappeared except for Akira Yamashita. After Yamashita Tsutsuki took off his diving suit, he looked frightened, and then went insane.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the famous American diving expert Edward Pohl and his party came to Poyang Lake, and after several months of salvage found nothing, in addition to Edward Pohl, several American divers disappeared here again.

In the early 60s, a fishing boat departed from Songmen Mountain in Yongxiu to go north to Lao Ye Temple, and the boat disappeared from the eyes of the people who saw them off on the shore after a short distance, and suddenly sank to the bottom of the lake.

On March 15, 1985, a ship with a load of 25 tons and number "Raoji No. 41838" sank in the morning light at half past six in the morning in the turbid waves three kilometers south of the Lao Ye Temple.

On August 3, 1985, two ships of Jiangxi Jinxian County Shipping Company, each weighing 20 tons, were miraculously buried at the bottom of the lake in the waters of Lao Ye Temple. On the same day, twelve other ships were killed here!

In September of the same year, a motorized boat carrying bamboo and wood from Anhui Province suddenly stopped and sank near the north of Lao Ye Temple, and the pedestrians on the shore witnessed the boatmen holding the bamboo and wood and shouting for help, and fled to the shore one by one after being so frightened that they did not dare to look back at the turbid waves rolling on the lake.

In 1985, more than 20 ships sank in the waters of Lao Ye Temple.

On March 15, 1986, Xiaogang Township, Fengcheng County, Jiangxi Province, numbered "Fengji 29356", with a carrying capacity of 20 tons, sailed in the waters of Lao Ye Temple.

In 1988, according to the person in charge of the Duchang County Navigation Supervision Station, dozens of more ships sank in this water.

Recently, a Japanese fishing boat also came here to search for treasure, and strangely, a boatload of people and a large number of jewels disappeared, and there is still no whereabouts.

What is the secret of the "Devil's Triangle" of Poyang Lake, which has claimed many innocent lives and destroyed many precious treasures, has repeatedly revealed the secret of murder and tragedy? The problem seems to be becoming more and more elusive and puzzling. It's a mystery that needs to be solved.
