Chapter 108: Underwater Dragon
After several phone calls from Zheng Suo, a pleasure boat came from not far away in about an hour, and after the ship was stable, everyone found that all the supplies that Situ Fang needed were stacked on the deck.
Seeing that the time was almost noon, Zheng Suorang sent lunch and finished eating, and then asked Situ Fang and them to rest for an hour and a half, and the preparations before entering the water officially began. After tying up the objects with ropes, they slowly lowered them under the water by comparing their dimensions.
At this time, the sky began to drizzle, and Professor Chen couldn't help but be a little worried when he looked at the group of lively team members in front of him. Chen Zhijun read this signal from his father's eyes, so he stepped forward to comfort him: "Dad, how deep is this water, you can go down, let alone these specially trained special forces, don't worry." ”
"Alas, they are about the same age as you, and other people's children are also children, so you should be worried, so let's arrange for the underwater camera to connect the video signal cable to me on the boat, and I will watch them work."
"Okay, I'll arrange this, and I'll also arrange an underwater intercom for you to receive here, and you will watch here steadily, and be the commander of the town, okay?"
"By the way, in addition, you arrange a few more people to go down and shine the lights on them, now that the sky is cloudy, the original vision below is poor, and now it must be even more difficult to see, and their headlamps can only shine in a small area."
"Oh, old man, don't worry about it, these will be arranged, so let's not worry, we have 15 people here, leaving Lei Tongren here to accompany you, and the other two people will be left to answer on it, and we will all go down."
"Go ahead, although there is very little you can do now, but it doesn't hurt to go down and study, be careful."
When Chen Zhijun was debugging the two cameras and the underwater intercom system, Situ Fang arranged the work for the personnel preparing to launch on the side: "You, you, you, the three of you are responsible for fixing the wire rope on the right side and hooking the hoist, you, you, the three of you are responsible for the left side, after you get underwater, first hook the hooks of the two hoists together, put them on the center point of the two doors, and then adjust the length of the wire rope, and two people are responsible for pulling the hoist, and the four of you are responsible for staring at the gap in the door. Seeing that the gap was almost there, he hurriedly put the iron block inside; You, you, the two of you are responsible for lighting support, ensuring that each operation point is well lit, and the two of you, you are good at playing camera, and the task of photography is given to you, the task is clear, right? ”
After confirming the confirmation of their respective missions, the big guys went into the water one after another. After the two camera positions were determined in the water, the opening of the tomb door officially began with the start of the wire rope fixing work. Situ Fang used gestures to direct the team members on both sides to drag the wire rope to tie and fix the upper clip, and then helped them hook the gourd to it; After these preparations are done on this side, the work arrangement is completed on the other side after waiting for the meeting, and then after the channel steel is docked, all the preparations are completed.
Professor Chen stared intently at the monitor on the boat, watching Situ Fang's every movement they made between the multiple ropes in a confused mood. As they adjusted the wire ropes on both sides of the chain hoist to the uniform force, Situ Fang nodded to the camera, and then gave a thumbs up to the upper point, and the team members responsible for the hoist on both sides pulled the zipper synchronously.
When Professor Chen saw the crack in the door, he immediately shouted to Situ Fang through the wired walkie-talkie: "Now keep such a big gap first, you look in from the gap to see if there is anything behind the door, and if you confirm that there is nothing on the top, then continue to open it." ”
After Situ Fang nodded at the camera to show his understanding, he gestured to the team member with the searchlight on the side and asked him to hand over the underwater searchlight. After Situ Fang took the searchlight, he swam to the crack in the door, looked carefully at the crack in the door from top to bottom, and after finding nothing abnormal, he turned around and gave a thumbs up to the camera, and then continued to direct the gourds on both sides to tighten.
Finally, the crack in the door is getting bigger and bigger, and according to the division of labor, the team members guarding the door on both sides hurriedly stuffed a few pieces of iron into the gap, and then asked them to withdraw the hoist and channel steel, and use jacks to carry out the operation.
After receiving the signal, Professor Chen hurriedly asked Lei Tongren to pull the gourd and other materials back to the boat from underwater, there was no messy rope, and the water was clean. was watching them press the jack one by one, and suddenly Situ Fang swept everyone with the searchlight in his hand, and then made an upward gesture, and everyone slowly floated to the surface.
Professor Chen was a little overwhelmed by the sudden situation, so Situ Fang took off his diving suit and walked over, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Professor, the pressure of the oxygen cylinder is not enough, let's change the air and rest for a while, the searchlight is also going to be replaced, and the battery is running out." ”
Hearing this, Professor Chen relieved his heart, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Oh, so that's the case, I also said, why did it all come up all of a sudden." ”
"Haha, do you think there's something unusual down there? No, it's actually much safer underwater than above. ”
"You are a land tiger, an underwater dragon, you have the foundation and conditions for self-confidence, but don't be too careless in the ancient tomb, be cautious, there will be some unexpected things occasionally in the ancient tomb, pay attention."
"Professor, are there really ghosts in the tombs? I've always been curious about this. ”
"Did you encounter any ghosts when you were in the army for wilderness survival training?"
"How can there be those, when the recruits are trained, they are just veterans pretending to be ghosts and scaring people, and after doing special forces, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"That's it, ghosts only exist in the depths of people's hearts, if you don't motivate them, then they won't exist, once they appear, it means that you are afraid, and then a person's weakness will follow."
"I see, Professor, what you're saying in a scientific way to explain this should be 'Fear comes from within, and when fear is taken over by the heart, it interferes with normal thinking, so much so that hallucinations occur,' right?"
"Yes, that's the truth, if there really are ghosts and gods, so many innocent dead ghosts in World War II would have gone to Japan for revenge, archaeological work has been done all his life, and countless ancient tombs have been contacted, some of which seem to outsiders to be ghosts and gods, in fact, everything can be explained by science, the ancient tombs are just a microcosm of the times, not as magical as the legend, only ignorant people will believe that those false things exist."
"And what would this underwater tomb look like?"
"This is up to you dragons to uncover the mystery for us, but I can be sure of one thing, the water mound is not so easy to enter, from design to construction, these require more wisdom and sweat than on land, and underwater is more suitable for laying some unconventional traps to wait for us, so from the moment you enter the door, you have to be careful!"
