XXVII. A Quest for Underwater Relics (II)

The old man was very neat, and he prepared to stop at noon the next day. Lisa and Professor Zhu were very surprised that they were not prepared for the immediate departure. Professor Zhu was very angry, thinking that such a hasty and reckless trip to the ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom was prone to danger, and he objected on the spot. Li Lingyun didn't care at all, and persuaded: "The deepest part of Erhai Lake is only twenty or thirty meters, and I can go down to the end with a fierce son, but for you, I still have to use special scuba water." The first time I went underwater today, I guess there is no reason, we can't stop going because people are well prepared, right? As for the danger or something, in order to protect the cultural heritage of the ancient Dian Kingdom, it is necessary to take risks, otherwise wouldn't the cultural relics dealers rush to go first? ”

Lisa was very happy, agreed with Li Lingyun's statement, and set off immediately. Professor Zhu clearly objected to Li Lingyun's proposal, but seeing that Li Lingyun didn't care about his opinion, he finally agreed to explore the ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom, and let Wan Qingping, Ding Kebei, and Su Xiaorou follow, but he still told him not to risk any accidents.

Erhai Lake is a famous tourist attraction in the suburbs of Dali, although it has been overdeveloped in recent years, but the lake water is still clear, the fishery is also relatively rich, and the surrounding area is full of inns, taverns and cafes. When the group arrived at Erhai Lake, they avoided crowded places and found a remote place, and someone had already prepared a hovercraft. got on the boat and suddenly sailed towards the center of Erhai Lake. There are many fishing boats and pleasure boats on the Erhai Sea, and this hovercraft is not conspicuous when sailing on the Erhai Sea.

After last night's speech, Professor Zhu's face was solemn, and he did not talk to Lao Na and Li Lingyun, and his attitude towards Zheng Ping'an was also light. Li Lingyun didn't care at all, chatting with Lao Nashan and Haibei. Don't talk about it like this, Zheng Ping'an was a little surprised, although the old man was obscene, but his knowledge is really not small, not to say that the preaching things in the book, some questions often have unique opinions, even if it is idle talk, it also shows that this old man is not a mortal.

What is surprising is that Xiao Jin usually looks soft and weak, but now he is also fully armed, and he is obviously going to go into the water with him. Such a heavily armed Xiao Jin completely took off the fat powder on his original body, and his hair was combed up, revealing his forehead, which had the meaning of being a tough little student, Zheng Ping'an couldn't help but take a few more looks. Xiao Jin noticed it, and smiled at Zheng Ping'an, with a gentle smile and clear eyes, which was set off by the scenery of Erhai Lake, and it even showed the literary temperament of the big boy next door, which completely faded away from the wind and dust on his body. Zheng Ping'an also hurriedly smiled, nodded slightly, and withdrew his gaze.

The hovercraft has been sailing out for more than 1 hour, and there is no shore in sight, so the old man asked the boat owner to stop the boat slowly. Raise your eyes and look around, surrounded by water vapor, sparkling water, and distant sails dotted, a good scenery of relaxation. Now that the shore is nowhere to be seen, is there any reference, in this case the direction can be determined in the water, although Tianyuan Mountain leaked the news in advance, but it is enough to prove that Lao Na has made sufficient preparations in this matter, and has the mind of imperativeness.

Lao Na smiled and said to everyone: "The ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom are under this water, of course, we should all be northerners, all landlubbers, if it is a little bad, don't be surprised, eight or nine are not far from ten around here." The water of Dianchi Lake is not deep, at most more than ten meters, so what is prepared for everyone is scuba. But there is one thing, I have never gone down under this water, and if there is a bad pool, it is not my old responsibility! ”

The old man said that Xiao Jin was already dressed, and he didn't greet anyone, and he leaned back along the bow of the boat and entered the water, a standard diving posture, even if not professional, is extremely familiar. A few blisters bubbled in the water, and Xiao Jin's figure disappeared! Lao Na was not surprised to see it, he smiled at everyone and arched his hand, and also put on the scuba to the side, and then said hello to everyone and entered the water. Li Lingyun, Zheng Ping'an, and Lisa Liu must have entered the water, and Professor Zhu finally went into the water with Wan Qingping. Ding Kebei and Su Xiaorou stayed on the water to deal with everyone, Ding Kebei was a little dissatisfied and wanted to speak, but Su Xiaorou stopped him.

Zheng Ping'an has good water skills, but for the first time diving, he is inevitably a little nervous, and he is a little clumsy in the water, and Professor Zhu is the same over there. Looking at Li Lingyun, he entered the water like a flexible fish, without a trace of jerky and sluggishness, Lisa Liu did not look as flexible as Li Lingyun, but he was not far behind, and quickly adapted to the underwater environment. Wan Qingping was decent underwater, and after adapting to it for a while, he was able to go back and forth freely, which made Li Lingyun a little surprised.

Li Lingyun patiently gestured at Zheng Ping'an underwater, and slowly pulled Professor Zhu and Zheng Ping'an to swim deeper. Fortunately, after Professor Zhu and Zheng Ping'an slowly adapted, they arrived smoothly and did not need Li Lingyun's excessive attention and care.

The water of Dianchi Lake is not deep, the water quality is still good, the sun is strong in the afternoon, it can barely shine to the bottom of the water, and a general outline can be seen basically. Xiao Jin and Lao Na went into the water early, and when everyone got used to the underwater, the two of them didn't know where to swim for a long time. Everyone couldn't distinguish between the southeast and northwest under the water, but fortunately, Li Lingyun was experienced, and this thing didn't bother him, so he corrected the direction slightly in the water, and led everyone to follow.

The underwater world is very quiet, only his own wheezing and bubbles can be heard, looking down, he can barely see aquatic plants and fish within ten meters, Zheng Ping'an has never seen such a scene before, and he feels amazing for a while. Looking down further, the black hole is full of holes, even if it is a flat river, but you can't see where the ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom are. Under Li Lingyun's command, everyone swam forward for a quarter of an hour before they found a basin at the bottom of the pool. I don't know whether this basin is naturally formed or artificially excavated, as if a bowl-shaped pit was dug at the bottom of the pool, black and dark, and you can see two white lights in the distance, which should be the light emitted by Xiao Jin and Lao Na's underwater flashlight.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked, hurriedly turned on the flashlight on their heads, and quickly swam towards Lao Na and Xiao Jin. When they swam nearby, they found that Lao Na and Xiao Jin had thrown a lot of cold light sources underwater. These cold light sources are a drop in the bucket to illuminate the underwater situation, although the light is very weak, but still barely see a magnificent ruins in front of you, from above, the bottom is a huge city tired of stones, this underwater city should be built on the mountain, from the lowest point there are wide and huge steps all the way to the top, flanked by huge stone statues, at the end of the steps is a temple-like building.

Zheng Ping'an, Li Lingyun, Lisa and others looked at the underwater ruins and couldn't relax for a while. At this moment, the underwater relics of the ancient Dian Kingdom look like a miniature landscape in a fish tank from above, which really makes people feel unreal, but the fact is in front of them, and they have to be believed. Professor Zhu on the side should have been more emotional, gasping out for breath, if it wasn't for the underwater and no breathing mask, I am afraid that he would have danced and shouted excitedly. When Li Lingyun saw it, he hurriedly swam over to appease Professor Zhu's emotions. "If you're always so excited, you don't have much to do to stay underwater!"

Lao Na and Xiao Jin, who were below, saw that the group had followed, waved their hands slightly, and swam towards the ruins, especially Xiao Jin was extremely flexible in the water. When Professor Zhu saw it, he took the lead in swimming forward, and Lisa Liu and Wan Qingping also followed. Zheng Ping'an was about to follow. Li Lingyun hurriedly stopped, gestured, and put a water pressure gauge beside him in front of Zheng Ping'an's eyes, and the pointer was already pointing to 30. Zheng Ping'an didn't know why, Li Lingyun had already pulled Zheng Ping'an to kick hard, and did not follow everyone, but went straight to the water.

Although it takes a long time to dive down, it is a labor-saving and rapid process with great buoyancy upstream. Zheng Ping'an felt that it didn't take a few minutes to surface. When he reached the water, Zheng Ping'an took a long breath, the sun was shining on the water, and his mood was open. After a few breaths, he asked puzzledly, "Hi! Why are you in a hurry to pull me out? We haven't gone in yet! ”

Li Lingyun said: "You are not afraid of death, there is no end to the bottom of the 30 meters below, and oxygen is definitely not enough." The old boy must be clever with us, don't look at them swimming forward like no one, we can't swim in anyway! ”

Zheng Ping'an listened, and was a little anxious: "Then Professor Zhu, Lisa, and Wan Qingping have followed the old man!" ”

"You don't need to worry about this, you just wait here, don't run around. These people at the bottom, except for you, everyone else knows it in their hearts! After speaking, a fierce man plunged into the water again, leaving Zheng Ping'an with a stunned face.
