The mountain trail winds all the way, and after more than two days, the carriage drove to the west valley.

Walking through the towering trees, you can see the flat plains at a glance. In the meantime, the white moonlight of Nasi Lake is accompanied by the rhythmic cry of the nightingale, everything is so quiet and distant, not like the mortal world.

The people set up tents near the lake, and Zhuang Ze looked at the sky and said, "Rest well tonight, and then start exploring the lake tomorrow when the light is full." "On the other hand, I want them to enjoy it before they are about to disturb the silence.

There was no word all night, and the next morning a few deer were licking water by the lake. "These guys are so close to a populated place," Chong Qiyuan said.

The crimson with the bow and arrow in hand was about to move, she exhaled and put down the arrow, "We'll notice it when we get closer, so let them play comfortably for a while." ”

Zhuang Ze and Yuan Shanghan discussed not using the water attribute first, but simply holding their breath to explore the depth and the situation in the water. After making a preliminary understanding, discuss how to assign tasks to make air bubbles dive.

After deciding on it, the six of them removed the heavy objects on their bodies, and basically only brought a dagger just in case they dive into the lake. The morning light penetrates into the lake for tens of meters, and the visibility in the water is unusually high, even as fine as dust particles of phytoplankton can be seen. It's just that you don't have time to slowly enjoy the scenery in the water, and it is important to figure out how much you can dive under the condition of holding your breath.

The scarlet man followed Yuanshang Han and dived for an unknown amount of time, the light around him gradually weakened, and his breath was almost suffocated to the limit, but he could still clearly feel that their current position was far from the bottom of the lake. Zhuang Ze, who was not far away, made a gesture and said that he wanted to float, but he grabbed something in the scarlet sky, and when he was about to continue to dive down to see clearly, his throat couldn't help but bubble up, and Yuan Shanghan immediately pulled Scarlet's wrist to float up when he saw this.

"Ahem, ahem. The scarlet man on the shore began to cough rapidly.

"You're going to die, and you're still going down. Yuan Shang Han said worriedly.

"No, I forgot to be in the water for a moment, and I saw something underneath, and I was ready to speak to you. ”

"Uh-huh, have you already dived that deep?

"I didn't see anything," Yuan Shanghan took the towel, wiped the hair that had been dripping from his forehead, and asked Xiang Gui Qingchen, "By the way, when did you come up?"

"Oh, they were almost two-thirds of the way we were there, and Qiyuan said hello to me and went up. Zhuang Ze said, his eyes searched around, "What about Qiyuan and Nimbus people?"

They went to change their clothes in the carriage, and Qiyuan's ability to dive below was suddenly uncontrollable, causing all the miscellaneous phytoplankton to gather and stick together, and the wind and rain clouds next to them were also affected. Gui Qingchen laughed as he spoke, "You don't know how funny it is that Qiyuan was dressed in white before he went into the water, and after he went ashore, he was dressed in slippery green clothes, as if he had done free bleaching and dyeing, and he looked puzzled. ”

"He's amazing, too. Zhuang Ze smiled helplessly.

"Then when the two of them are done, I'll tell you what I've seen in the depths. Scarlet said seriously.

After resting for a while, the seaweed on Chongqiyuan's head was almost cleaned. Everyone gathered in a circle and began to talk about their observations.

"Qiyuan and I have been diving side by side, and what we see is pretty much the same. Near the right edge of the lake, the soil is vertical, or slightly inclined, anyway, like a complete two-cut, with water on one side and land on the other. "Oh, and the aquatic creatures are not seen, and there are a lot of aquatic plants, and the deeper you go, the more so." ”

"I was a few meters apart from them, and so was the left edge, which was artificial, a perfect facet. I don't see any creatures in the water, but there are a lot of creatures in the soil close to the water, small, and a little wriggling. Gui Qingchen's expression distorted as he recalled that feeling, the thing he hated the most was striped creatures like caterpillars.

"Uh...... Earthworm?" Chongqi imagined for a moment.

"Ahh Even if Gui Qingchen covered his ears, he couldn't stop the picture that began to be drawn in his mind.

“......”

"The cylindrical body of the lake, there is no aquatic life. Then, let me tell you about the situation on my side," Zhuang Ze closed his eyes, as if he wanted to reappear in that environment, "what is certain is that this lake is not a pool of stagnant water, Shanghan should also feel it." ”

Yuan Shanghan nodded in response, and Zhuang Ze continued: "Although it is not stagnant water, the flow of its source is very subtle, like the feeling of a water pipe in the depths of the lake? And then there's the fact that there's an unusual secret in the depths that we haven't yet touched...... As for what it is, I don't know. ”

Originally, when they heard him say that he had a secret, everyone was looking forward to it with serious concentration, but as soon as the next sentence came out, the disappointment reactions that abound were thrown at Zhuang Ze one by one. "Hey, there must be a secret, I haven't been to the bottom of the lake, how can I know what the secret is. ”

"Well, let's not talk about the secret, there are creatures down there!" said Enshanghan.

"Oh oh oh, what kind of aquatic creatures?"

"I felt it, I didn't see it. ”

“...... What about the others?"

"It's gone, it's all finished by Zhuang Ze!" Yuan Shanghan looked confident.

Everyone sighed, and suddenly Gui Qingchen sighed, "Didn't Sister Xiao'er say that she saw something!"

"Well, I was about to say," Scarlet nodded and continued, "Didn't I dive a little bit more before I was ready to ascend, or I just wanted to see what those faintly shiny and shaking lights were. ”

"Shining, light and shadow. Gui Qingchen repeated those two key words. Everyone waited with bated breath for her to continue.

"Well, light and shadow, or is it a point of light? I can still see the outline faintly, although I don't know how far away, but I guess it's so big," he said, spreading his arms.

"So big?!"

"This size is not a fish, is it?"

The boys who came ashore first were amazed, regretting that they had just not been able to dive down to take a closer look.

"There's another very important question. Scarlet interrupted their conjecture, "If we go any further, there will probably be no light at all, and it is extremely dangerous to explore in the water in the dark, so we don't need to go into the water again until we solve the light source in the water." ”

"......" was silent.

Indeed, the light source that penetrates deep into the bottom cannot be provided by the transmitted daylight, Zhuang Ze thought to himself, but it is difficult to add the air bubble to the six people with the attributes of me and Shanghan, and I am afraid that I will not have the time to provide a seventh air bubble to the firelight. Well, light source, light source, there is no other luminous object that can shine underwater.

"Ahem," Stormcloud's pretentious cough caught everyone's attention, "It's time for you to feel my presence." There is no endless way to heaven, and I believe that God must have known the predicament at this time before giving me the essentials in advance, and thanks to my ingenuity......"

"If you have something to say, talk about it, and if you fart, let it go. Chongqiyuan interrupted his eloquent conversation and gave him a blank look.

"Oh," Storm Cloud lifted the backpack behind him in front of him, and pulled out a stone from it in front of everyone's eyes. It says it's a stone, but it's more like a piece of metal.

"With one thing, the lighting in the water is unobstructed!" he said proudly.
