Chapter 32: The Lake Without a Bottom

I gently returned to the tent and got into the sleeping bag, but I couldn't sleep, and Lu Sanguo's face always appeared in front of me.

I can't sleep, it's my birthday, and I'm worried that my father will use the seventh sense channel to drill into my brain again and control my consciousness, and then maybe he will order me to kill Pulp or Monsoon!

There are 15 of us left.

Three of us died overnight, and if this continued, within five days we were all buried in Lop Nur. The last person is estimated to be a desert with no one to bury him.

I didn't eat breakfast and slept until 11 o'clock.

I walked out of the tent, washed up, and went to the tent in Linghu Mountain.

The monsoon was not there, and it was as hot as a steamer outside, but she was fishing by the lake with Berry Juice and Meng Xiaoshuai. Wu Min was courteous beside him.

Linghu Shan sat at the door of the tent and watched quietly. I know, he's looking at the monsoon.

I was sitting in the tent with him, and I suddenly said, "What's your heart rate?" ”

Ling Hushan was stunned: "What is heart rate?" ”

I said, "That is, how many times per minute do you have your heartbeat?" ”

Linghushan said, "Oh, I haven't tested it. How do you ask this? ”

I said, "Just ask." ”

Ling Hushan said: "Anyway, I run 5,000 meters like a play." ”

I could tell that he was chatting with me absent-mindedly, and as he spoke, he continued to look out at the monsoon fishing.

I said, "Do you suspect that your stepfather killed your biological father and then married your mother?" ”

Ling Hushan was obviously more interested in this topic: "It must be so. Since the nine of them killed each other, and since he was the only one who escaped in the end, who did you say killed the 8 people who died? ”

I said, "Then what are you doing in Lop Nur?" ”

Linghushan said: "I'm here to find the Lost Courage Slope. ”

I said, "What's the point?" ”

Ling Hushan said: "Of course it makes sense, it can prove whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally." ”

I said, "How?" ”

Linghushan said: "If I can't find Mourning Slope, it means that he deliberately killed my father, and then made up a lie to escape punishment; If I find Downfall, it means that he was indeed possessed by some kind of force at that time, and he couldn't control himself......"

I spoke to him and watched his expression.

The reason why I talked to him about this was to test whether he was reliable. If I feel that his family's story is true, then he is reliable. If I feel that his family's story is fake, then he is unreliable.

The look in his eyes told me he was telling the truth.

I said, "Now you're sure?" ”

Ling Hushan nodded: "It's confirmed." ”

I said, "Why?" ”

Linghushan said: "Because I found the Mourning Slope. ”

I said, "It's not a terrible slope at all, we're not killing each other!" ”

Ling Hushan looked at me and suddenly said, "It's already started." ”

I said, "What has already begun?" ”

Ling Hushan lowered his voice and said, "You killed Lu Sanguo last night. ”

I was stunned.

Ling Hushan continued: "I know, he is not an undercover agent at all. ”

I said, "Linghu Mountain, let me tell you, I was in a state of sleepwalking last night when my father controlled my brain. ”

Ling Hushan said, "How can he control your brain? ”

I said, "It's a long story, but let him know some kind of spell." ”

Linghushan said: "Just like Bubu said - what if he controls your brain again tonight and asks you to kill me?" ”

I said, "I'm not going to let him control me anymore." ”

Linghushan said, "How do you defend against him?" ”

I said, "It's a long talk, but you should let me master some kind of spell too." ”

Linghushan said: "What if our brains are all controlled? ”

I said, "No way, there is only a passage between direct blood relatives." ”

Ling Hushan shook his head and said, "I don't agree. As long as someone can get into your brain, someone else will definitely get into your brain too! ”

This makes me chill when I say this.

I'm starting to doubt my seventh sense. Is it really just a conduit between parents and children?

For example: a tunnel with the word "king", it seems that only the word "king" can pass through, so the word "Tian" can not pass through without removing the verticals on both sides?

I think my father has my brain in my hands, and maybe that's a hallucination in itself.

I suddenly wanted to leave this place.

I said, "I'll talk to you about it, get out of here today, and continue to find a way." ”

Linghushan continued to look at the monsoon, and said with some pessimism: "We have seen what we should see, I don't think it's so easy to get out of Lop Nur." ”

Before leaving, I must go to the bottom of the lake.

I shouted at Pulp, "Pulp! ”

She looked at me and ran over.

I walked into the tent with her and said, "Pulp, I'm going to give you a su."

p

ise。 ”

Pulp said, "Is it worth it?" ”

I didn't move, I just stared at her.

She said, "Okay, okay, as long as it's sent by you, I like everything, okay?" ”

I pulled the celestial object out of my pocket, and it took the shape of a heart.

Pulp took it and was amazed: "Wow, that's so beautiful!" Where did you pick it up? ”

I said, "I dug it under the sand." ”

"It's so cold!" What kind of material is it? ”

I said, "Glass." ”

"I've never seen such beautiful glass!" ”

I said, "Promise me, don't lose it, okay?" ”

"Absolutely not!" ”

Then I said, "I'm going to dive to the bottom of the lake in a moment, and if I don't come out before dark, you can leave quickly." Can you remember? ”

Pulp said, "How do you dive?" ”

I said, "Lu Sanguo has gas cylinders in his car. ”

Pulp stood in front of me like a child: "I won't let you go down!" ”

I said, "The last time I went into the water, I saw something with a Pisces pattern at the bottom of the lake, and I went to see what it was." ”

Pulp said, "Then I won't let you go down!" ”

I said, "Have you ever played Escape Room?" ”

Juice said, "I've played with it." ”

I said, "Now that we're trapped, we should go and explore the mechanism if we find it, maybe we'll unlock it in one go, and then we'll all be saved." I have to go down. ”

Pulp suddenly ran outside the tent and shouted to a few people by the lake: "Something's wrong! Come on! ”

Ji Feng, Meng Xiaoshuai and Wu Min all ran over.

Pulp told everyone about my intentions.

Wu Min said: "Boss Zhou, we don't know how deep the water is, it's too risky. ”

Pulp held up the celestial object and exclaimed, "He gave me this piece of glass as if he wanted to say goodbye!" Let's not let him go down! ”

I looked at Wu Min, and Wu Min looked at me. Pulp doesn't know how embarrassed I am.

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "Boss Zhou, do you want to play with your life?" Dive so deep, you need a doctor to evaluate the body in advance! Even if you have to go down, then choose a young one. ”

Ji Feng suddenly said, "I'm going to call Linghu Mountain." With that, he walked out.

I stopped her: "Monsoon! ”

She stopped, and I said to her, "That's what I want to do, you don't pull anybody in." ”

It can be seen that she and Ling Hushan are already very close.

Monsoon hesitated at the tent door.

Wu Min looked at Meng Xiaoshuai, then at the pulp, lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "It seems that it's time for me to take a stand, Boss Zhou, I'll go down." ”

I said, "By doing this, you have taken away my freedom." ”

Pulp said: "If you don't like to listen to me, you have to say - you are a middle-aged uncle, what kind of hero are you?" Want to attract girls? Wu Min is young, let Wu Min go down! ”

I said, "Come on, I'm giving up, no one wants to go." ”

After lunch, I took advantage of everyone's nap to quietly come to Lu Sanguo's car, hid the pistol under the saddle, only put a knife and a waterproof flashlight in my pocket, and then, I put on a gas cylinder on my back, put on a breathing mask, tried it, there was no problem, and finally I locked the car door, carefully bypassed the tent, and came directly to the lake.

I did a rough calculation: decompress the compressed gas of the cylinder to get the volume, divide the volume by the volume, and estimate that the cylinder can last for 12 hours.

The water of the lake is very clear and turquoise, and you can't see the end.

I glanced back at my tent, Pulp was asleep, and I wasn't sure if I would ever see her again.

I jumped down with a "grunt".

Due to the weight of the cylinders, I sank quickly.

The light around me was getting darker and darker, and by about 30 meters, it was already pitch black.

My nerves tightened and tightened, and I couldn't even sink to the bottom of the lake!

I turned on the flashlight and it only shone a few meters away. There was nothing in the water.

After about 3 minutes, I sank about 30 meters, the pressure of the water was getting stronger, and I still couldn't see the bottom of the lake.

As I recall, the latest dive record was broken by a South African man at a depth of 318.25 meters. However, he uses advanced diving equipment, and my equipment is very rudimentary, fortunately, I have been diving in Sanya a lot in recent years, which is considered to be some experience, but I can't reach that deep place......

Looking down, the Pisces pattern is brighter, but I feel like it's at my initial distance.

I gritted my teeth and continued to dive.

It was as if a small hand had grabbed my feet, and it was cool, slippery, and I shivered. Looking down, it was black and watery.

Suddenly something passed over my spine, and I turned around with difficulty in the water to look, and there was a slick living creature that swam forward as fast as it could, quickly disappearing into the dark waters.

That's definitely not fish.

It was a naked child!

Could it be that he, like a fish, can breathe freely in the water?

Just as I was stunned, another child swam past me and was soon gone.

By this time, I had already dived to a depth of about 80 meters. The endless water is getting colder and colder, and the bottom of the lake is still nowhere to be seen!

I continued to dive, and there were a lot of children in the water, far and near, all in the breaststroke position, swimming in all directions. I couldn't call them, I and they were as silent as fish.

They didn't hurt me.

I continued to dive, and after 10 minutes, I believed I was close to a depth of 120 meters!

At this time, I saw a sign, pointing deeper, with dozens of characters written on it, one of which was Chinese characters, and after I read it, my head felt like it had been struck by lightning......
