In the mountainous and dense network of rivers, the city was often flooded with mountains and gold in the past when the drainage system was fully maintained, not to mention that it is now time for human activity to cease almost completely. Moreover, at this time, it was the height of summer, and the torrential rain continued, and the Qianzhou area was transformed into a water city, and only the towering buildings in the new urban area and a few high-lying places were spared.

Therefore, in order to enter and search for that machine, you have to find the right vehicle - a ship. In place of a car, the connection is completed. First of all, although the city is flooded, the water is not deep, it can be one meter five, it is already very good, but this depth, for pedestrians, is a little deeper, but for ships, it is shallow, and in this water, there is no lack of building wreckage, car wreckage and other sharp and angular obstacles.

"We've got to find an assault boat." Wei Yilin regretted a little that he didn't bring an assault boat, so that he wouldn't have to venture into the fire department, the maritime bureau, the marine police station and other places to find a suitable ship.

"How long has it been raining?" Meng Zhuofan looked at a piece of Zeguo under the porthole, and kept wiping his forehead with his right hand, "Where is the river, where is the road?" ”

"The wider is the river, and the narrower is the road."

"What about those little ditches?"

"Judge for yourself."

"Qiao Wu, go to this place." Wei Yilin stuffed a map with the address into the cockpit, this place is located on the edge of the Bijiang River, in the southeast of the city of Yuanzhou, that is the location of the Marine Police Bureau, around the building of the Marine Police Bureau, is a very large square, next to the square, there is a circle of famous landmark buildings such as the Opera House, the Yuanzhou Library, the Yuanzhou Tower, and the nearest office building and residential building from it are also 1.5 kilometers away. Therefore, the number of infected people in the vicinity of the coast guard station is not much more - after all, this turbulent river does not discriminate between infected and healthy people.

The Bijiang River is much wider than in the past, and the high-rise buildings on the shore are now like metasequoias, with more than ten meters long, or even dozens of meters of "branches and leaves", swaying violently in the fierce summer wind. On the surface of the river, a bridge rises on the ground, the bridge is actually very long, but its two ends are still submerged in the yellow-brown river water, the bridge has collapsed, it was blown off, a long section of the bridge deck, straight into the river water, like a huge tombstone.

In fact, there are still a lot of ships left on the river, but they are just a grain of millet in the sea compared to the vast river. There have been several theories in the academic community as to why the river has suddenly become more than twice wider, and the most supportive of this is that nature is gradually regaining the "territory" occupied by humans. On the other hand, global warming has intensified, and the sea level has risen dramatically in the past year, and the fringes of the continent have now become an ocean. The third is tinged with theology—it is God's punishment, whether it is a sudden illness or a drastic change in the climate, but it is only one of the means, the purpose of which is to warn mankind not to act in defiance of the laws of nature and abuse the results of science.

A huge ship suddenly appeared on the sea level, its body was more than three times taller than other ships, and the towering bridge was close to a tall building not far away. It ran aground, and its huge tail was like a broom, and all the mud and sand buildings on the shore were blown into mud and dust.

Wei Yilin couldn't help but worry, would the water police station hanging alone on the riverside be "hit" into powder by a huge ship? If this is the case, they will have to take a greater risk to find rubber boats in the fire stations, police stations and other places deep in the inner streets and alleys, but those rubber boats are often uninflated, and how to inflate them will be a headache.

Fortunately, in front of the Marine Police Station, there are "guards", these loyal guards, blocking the "collision" of the big boat, but in the same way, these guards themselves have become an obstacle for Wei Yilin and others to enter the Marine Police Station, these guards are the ships moored in front of the Marine Police Station, there are twenty or thirty meters long boats, several meters long boats, but these one by one, they are "smashing" the side of the Marine Police Station near the river, to "smash" beyond recognition.

The helicopter fell a few meters from the water, and the propeller pumped up a large area of river water, which was like a curtain of water, "covering" the entire helicopter.

But you can't test the depth of the water without opening the door – you can't just "plant" the helicopter into the water with your eyes closed, right?

"Pull up, prepare the tightrope." Wei Yilin ordered.

Qin Tianwu was a little worried: "Is this okay?" I don't know how deep. ”

"Be careful, it's always okay." Wei Yilin patted his chest to show that he was confident, the reason why he was so confident was not because he was a native of Yuanzhou, but because he didn't have to be the first to go down!

As for this glorious mission, Qiao Wu and Xiao Xu are pilots, so naturally they can't compete for the lead, Wu Nanrong is a non-combatant, so there is no need to worry, Bai Yunlian is a girl, of course, she has to "avoid", and now no one will mention "women don't let their eyebrows", so that the first batch of people to go down can only be chosen among Xie Lingguang, Xiao Tian, Qian Zhenshan, Meng Zhuofan, and Qin Tianwu.

Wei Yilin chose Qian Zhenshan, the reason is also simple, in his weapon "arsenal", there is a baton nearly one person high, at that time, just grab the rope, hang his body on the water, and then poke the stick into the ground, you can measure how deep the water is.

After preparing for three minutes, Qian Zhenshan, who was sure to be foolproof, tied the long baton to his body with a rope, grabbed the steel cable with both hands, and descended little by little from the helicopter hovering thirteen meters in the air. The other people on the helicopter widened their eyes, alerting everything in the vicinity, and if there was a disturbance, they would be able to notify Qian Zhenshan to retreat as soon as possible.

Qian Zhenshan wrapped his feet around the rope, moved his arms down little by little, and at the same time stared at the muddy water surface with his eyes tightly, although there is no evidence that the infected person can hold his breath in the water for a long time, but the shock they bring to human beings still makes many people, from the bottom of their hearts, feel that they can do it - even if someone says that he has seen it with his own eyes, the infected person can fly, I am afraid that there are people who believe it.

At a distance of more than ten meters, Qian Zhenshan took five minutes, and if this speed was placed in wartime, it would definitely be no different from looking for death. He kept his body about 30 centimeters above the surface of the water so that the fluctuations of the water and the shaking of the helicopter would wet his clothes - although this was a common thing in the army, no one liked to wear a wet suit all day.

But soon, Qian Zhenshan discovered a big problem - this stick is not long enough at all! It turns out that although the length of this long baton is about one meter and six, with Qian Zhenshan's current posture, the distance it can put into the water is fifty centimeters, which is already very good! If you had known, you should have tied it to your feet! And not tied to the waist.

"How?" The people on the helicopter all eagerly asked Qian Zhenshan, who had just climbed up.

"The stick isn't long enough, I'll try it again in another way." Qian Zhenshan chose to tell the truth, anyway, the order Wei Yilin gave him was also that his own safety came first. And rushing into the water is the biggest irresponsibility for one's own safety.

This time, Qian Zhenshan directly tied the long baton to his left calf, position, close to the ankle, so that the long baton could follow his movements and poke directly into the water, hoping that this time, it could reach the end, otherwise, Qian Zhenshan would really be "wet" - after all, no matter how "life is priceless" in the order, when it is time to risk his life, he still has to risk his life.

Before the new round of rain arrived, Qian Zhenshan climbed up, and this time, he brought back a more accurate number of "between 1.55 and 1.6 meters". The water had already soaked through the instep of his foot, and was approaching the top of the long baton, but since there was no guarantee that the long baton was inserted vertically into the water, some deviation should be given appropriately.

As soon as she heard this depth, Bai Yunlian directly covered her face - this water depth, no more, no less, just enough to drown the top of her head. But it just happens to make everyone else show part of their heads on the water, isn't this obviously to let everyone have a very clear idea of her height? Translated into human terms, it is - she is the shortest! And it's the kind that can't even show his face, it's just killing people and punishing the heart!

"I'm going to swim." Wei Yilin's first reaction was this, after all, the water depth of one meter and six is already the depth of the pool, and if you want to move forward by walking, unless you are a giant with a height of two meters, it is better to swim obediently.

The designers of this building are really bad at designing the roof to the top of the "rest mountain", that is, not only can people enter the building through the stairs from the roof, but there is also no place to place hooks and locks to lower from the roof to the windows on the third or second floor, and from there, enter the Marine Police building. Therefore, there is only one road left in front of everyone - the gate on the first floor, which is only one meter high.

"On the southeast side of the building, there is a hidden dock. This dock is located on the negative floor, if in the past, it was facing out, it would be the river, but now, the river is rising, and this negative layer is estimated to be filled with water. Wei Yilin spent a lot of effort and finally called up the construction drawings of this marine police building from the military network - speaking of which, this is because this building used to be the office building of the National Guard's Yuanzhou Water Detachment, otherwise Wei Yilin and others would have to find out step by step, where this assault boat was "hidden".

Despite all the hassle, the people in the helicopter were not happy at all, because it meant not only that they had to swim, but also dive!
