This team walked in a straight line, passing through the grass along the way, which made Xu Yunshu and me miserable. They are ghosts, and they can walk through the forest at will without hindrance, but Xu Yunshu and I are big living people, and we are limited by physics, so we can't pass unhindered like them, but we don't dare to take a detour, for fear that once we deviate from the direction, we will no longer be able to keep up with it in such a foggy situation, let alone encounter a ghost hitting the wall.

In this way, we followed those ghosts all the way. I don't know how far I walked, and I gradually heard the sound of "whooshing" water in my ears, which means that we are not far from Longxi Lake.

After a while, Xu Yunshu and I walked out of the woods. The moment we stepped out of the woods, the fog dissipated without a trace, and our eyes immediately opened up. Under the moonlight, you can see clearly on the surface of the pool. And the team we have been following is not far ahead of us. I saw that they still maintained their original speed, slowly walking towards the Dragon Breath Pond. Even when he reached the edge of the pool, he didn't stop and walked straight up.

After those ghosts walked into the pool, they did not sink, but stepped on the surface of the pool and walked forward, and walked a long way.

There were no fishing boats nearby, and Xu Yunshu and I had no way to follow any further, so we could only stand on the edge of Longxi Pond and stare at those ghosts, wanting to know what they wanted to do. Breaking away from the ghost wall and dissipating the fog, Xu Yunshu was no longer as scared as before, and completely focused on monitoring these ghosts.

At this time, those ghosts had already stepped into the center of the Dragon's Breath Pool. But in the blink of an eye, the ghosts and the sedan chair they were carrying disappeared suddenly, without even a splash, as if they had never appeared.

"What should I do?" Xu Yunshu asked me.

I shrugged my shoulders: "I thought I would have to take a good turn in the mountains and forests near Longxi Lake to find the clues on the cloth, it seems that the mountains and forests don't need to go, let's go underwater first!" ”

"Underwater? You mean what we're looking for is under this pool? Xu Yunshu asked.

"That's how it should be!" I speculated, "The Dragon's Breath Pond is written on that piece of cloth, and this is the most famous pond in this vicinity, and all the legends and strange things are related to this pool...... If someone said that this pool of water was mediocre and nothing, I don't think you would believe it, would you? ”

Xu Yunshu nodded in agreement: "That's indeed the case!" ”

"Now it's good!" I clapped my hands and said, "We just said that we should study this pool of water to see if it really has the function of longevity, and now we are immediately given a chance to study it deeply!" ”

Xu Yunshu said with a smile: "It's really 'in-depth' research!" If you don't do it, you have to go deep into the bottom of the pool! ”

As the two of us spoke, we walked back to the village. Only this time the two of us didn't cross the woods again, but honestly went back the way we came.

The next day, a few of us rushed to the city to rent three sets of diving equipment, which were specially used for underwater exploration, which was very professional. These things are not found near Qilong Village, and can only be found in the city. When we rushed back to Qilong Village, it was already the afternoon of the same day, and there was a lot of delay in this back and forth. So, we decided that if the weather is good tomorrow, we will choose to go to the pond tomorrow. As for the basics of diving, this is not a problem. Xu Yunshu is a rich girl, and deep diving is no stranger to her, and Tanzi and I have also been to the beach and played a few deep dives, so we are relatively experienced.

On the third day, Tiangong was still considered beautiful. As soon as the sun came out, you could see that today was a sunny day and the weather was clear. Early in the morning, the three of us came to Longxi Lake with the equipment, and with the help of the hired equipment manager, we put on the diving equipment and went directly to the pool. Although the temperature on the shore is not high, it can even be said to be a little cold, but for some reason it makes people feel a little warmer underwater, at least warmer than on the shore.

The three of us slowly descended, increasing the depth of the dive little by little. When I first dived, there was nothing special and nothing I found, I just saw a lot of fish swimming around in the water, if there was nothing important to do, I should really go fishing on the shore or cast a net with the boat, looking for some fun at the water's edge.

As the depth drops, so does the light. At about six or seven meters, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. The water, which was originally pale cyan, suddenly became a lot more colorful on a certain level. At first, we thought it was a change in light, but then we realized that the creatures in the water were very different from before. There are many more species, and there are no longer just a few kinds of fish like when they first entered the water. The fish here are all colorful, colorful and swim in groups, which is very showy.

The further down we go, the smaller the area of the Longxi Pond becomes, and we have already touched the edge of one side of the pond, and the other side is still far away, and we can't see it at all. We slowly dived along the side of the pool, and suddenly Xu Yunshu behind me pulled me. I looked at her suspiciously, and saw her point to the side. I followed her direction, and saw two or three long fish floating in and out of the water, like long ribbons. I glanced at Xu Yunshu suspiciously, what is there to see about this hairtail fish that I often eat on weekdays?

Suddenly, a message flashed through my mind - this is a hairtail!

Doesn't the hairtail fish grow in seawater? No wonder Xu Yunshu asked me to see it, I think this is also the thing she wonders the most. I let go of the respirator I was biting on, and immediately a stream of salty water poured into my mouth, causing me to close my mouth immediately. It was this mouthful of water that almost choked me on breath. Sure enough, it smells of seawater!

But isn't this a waterhole? Where does the sea water come from? Moreover, the people of Qilong Village have lived here from generation to generation by relying on the water of this Longxi Pond, and their drinking water comes from this Longxi Pond, how can it be salty?

This is why Xu Yunshu is careful and can discover these. If you replace it with a jar...... Maybe the jar could see the difference in the fish, but he didn't even think about why the fish species had changed.

As I pondered, the front jar sent a signal. He spotted a hole in the side wall ahead. The three of us leaned in, but didn't go in right away. We found the hole to be very secretive, beneath a protruding boulder on the side wall.

Now it is more than ten meters underwater, the light is already very dim, we can only rely on lamps and lanterns for lighting, and the pressure of the water makes us very uncomfortable, after all, we have no professional training. I looked down, I didn't know how deep it was from the bottom of the pool, and when I looked at the side hole, it was also unknown. But no matter what, there has to be a choice between going into the cave or continuing to dive. In the end, I chose to go into the hole.
