Chapter 272: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain

The torrential rain fell for a day and night, and Ziyang was worried that the entire village would be flooded, so he didn't even dare to sleep peacefully. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The next day I woke up hazy and looked outside, the rain was still falling, and the village was fine.

Qinhan Village is not big, but it is not small, hundreds of families are scattered on the slope in the south of the valley, and the layers are tired and scattered. The terrain of the entire village is a natural drainage slope, and no matter how heavy the rain is, it will not accumulate water.

Ziyang stood there observing the quiet Qinhan Village in the rain, and couldn't help but secretly sigh at the wisdom of the ancients. This village is estimated to be thousands of years old, and it has gone through many ups and downs and is still standing. It's only been a day of heavy rain, and I'm worried about being flooded, which is really unfounded.

Zi Yang looked up at the still continuous heavy rain, remembered something in his heart, and suddenly frowned.

Now he worries that all the precipitation in the valley will be collected into two rivers and pools, and the water level will definitely rise very much. I don't know if it will cause trouble for diving.

Su Rui walked over and stood behind him, and said softly: "With such a heavy rain, the current must be very fast, and diving will be very dangerous in this case." ā€

Su Rui probably wanted to remind Ziyang that she couldn't dive rashly in this kind of weather - in fact, even if the wind was good, Ziyang didn't want to go down anymore. It's just that for the sake of face, he is embarrassed to speak.

It was his idea to come here for an adventure, and it was not easy to drag so many people and equipment to this remote mountain village, and it would be too easy to give up - especially when it cost so much money to buy equipment.

"Wait a minute, the rain is much lighter than yesterday, and we'll see how it happens when the rain stops." Ziyang said sullenly.

Lao Wang poked his head out of the tent when he heard the two of them talking, "Is it still raining?" I went, and after a day of stuffiness in the house, I had mushrooms growing on me! ā€

Because it was raining too much outside, they simply put away their tents and set them up inside. The house has two bedrooms, east and west, with a hall and kitchen in the middle, just enough space for three tents.

The rain made the house very damp, and everyone felt wet and uncomfortable to sleep. In this kind of weather, nothing can be done, and everyone can only stay in the house and sit stupidly in the house.

When they came, they didn't prepare any entertainment utensils, and now there is no activity except staring at each other, and Lao Wang has an idea, and he actually wants to draw a playing card for everyone's entertainment.

The summer rain came and went as fast as it came, and as it approached noon, the rain suddenly stopped, and the speed at which the clouds dissipated seemed to be clear in an hour. Everyone couldn't help but smile and covered themselves in the damp room for a day, and everyone couldn't wait to come out for a walk.

There was a smell of fresh earth in the air after the rain, and the smell was refreshing. Even Xiaoli was in a good mood, and with the support of her dashing brother, she walked slowly to the yard to breathe fresh air.

Lao Wang began to boil the pot and water, ready to have a good lunch to celebrate.

Su Rui saw that Brother Xiao and Xiaoli were watching the scenery outside, shouted to him softly, and pulled Ziyang into the inner room together.

"We have to hurry up and continue diving, but Zhiqiu is more troublesome here." Su Rui said with an embarrassed face.

"It's easy to talk about this," Ziyang patted Lao Wang on the shoulder: "Lao Wang, you will lure Brother Chic away again today and take him to the mountains to go around and pick mushrooms." ā€

"Damn! Why am I again? I'm not going! I'm going to talk to Lao Jin! Lao Wang said dissatisfied.

Zi Yang had secretly told Lao Wang about Jin Guoqiang, and after this guy heard that Jin Guoqiang was also hiding here, he was holding back his strength to find Lao Jin to catch up.

"I want to dive with Su Rui, you go to chat with Lao Jin, who will stare at Brother Chic? Besides, we move things in and out, and it's not convenient to move without him being separated. Zi Yang persuaded him bitterly.

"I don't care, whoever you like to go, I'm awkward with Chic, and I won't go if I am killed." Lao Wang began to lose his temper.

"What should I do?" Su Rui looked at Ziyang helplessly.

"Then let's kill you!" Zi Yang said expressionlessly, "It's all caused by you, but now you don't care about it?" ā€

Of course, Zi Yang was just complaining, he couldn't really beat Lao Wang to death, and he couldn't beat him.

In the end, the result of the discussion was that Xiao Hei and Xiao Xiao went to hunt game and pick mushrooms. Lao Wang accompanied Xiaoli to recuperate in the camp. Su Rui and Ziyang quietly slipped out to dive.

Lao Wang was quite satisfied with this plan, patted his stomach and said, "I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I've had a good lunch today, and the rain has stopped to celebrate!" ā€

Once a foodie is hungry, anything can be a reason to celebrate.

There was still a small half of the rabbit and chicken they stewed last night, and Lao Wang mixed these animal carcasses with instant noodles and boiled a big pot, and it tasted very good! Everyone had a beautiful lunch. Ziyang also unceremoniously ate three bowls in a row.

After eating, Lao Wang flipped through the empty box of instant noodles and deliberately shouted, "Ouch, what should I do?" I'm done with instant noodles! If we don't find a way to raise food and grass, we'll be hungry. ā€

"This is easy to say, then we will restore the primitive social system of male farming and female weaving, men go out to eat, and women sew and wash at home." Ziyang said.

"Hey, that's a good idea, let's go to the mountains and go to the countryside to experience life -- in order to improve labor productivity, I suggest that we act in groups." Lao Wang and Ziyang sang and harmonized, just like cross talk, and the dashing brother was stunned.

"Xiaoli has an injury on her foot, I suggest that Lao Wang and Su Rui swap identities, and you accompany Xiaoli to watch the house in the camp. I suffered a loss, and I was in a group with Su Rui. Xiao Hei and Brother Chic are in a group, let's go out separately to find something to eat. Zi Yang took out a set of rhetoric that had already been prepared.

Lao Wang applauded with emotion and said, "I see that this Qinhan Village is vast and sparsely populated, rich in products, and vast in the world, so there is a lot to be done!" ā€

Although Brother Chic was very reluctant to accept such an arrangement, he was soft-spoken and lonely. In addition, Ziyang and Lao Wang said everything that should be said, which was reasonable and well-founded, and there was no room for him to resist at all. had to reluctantly accept this result, and watched Ziyang "snatch away" Su Rui again.

After a short rest, they packed up their things and prepared to go.

Ziyang secretly told Xiao Hei to take Brother Xiao out for a while, and don't come back until dark - of course, you still have to pay attention to protecting Brother Xiao's safety.

"I wish you all a full return!" Ziyang shouted loudly behind the two.

Watching Brother Chic and Xiao Hei walk away, Lao Wang turned his head to look at Zi Yang gloating and said, "Lao Li, isn't it too cruel for you to fool people like this?" You dive there and let the dashing brother go out to work, and at night he sees that you haven't got anything back, won't he lose his temper? ā€

"It's easy to do, I'll just say that my foot is twisted, and we give up halfway." Zi Yang looked at Xiao Li, who was sitting in the distance and sketched, and said in a strange voice.

While Lao Wang was pestering Xiaoli, Ziyang and Su Rui smuggled out the equipment needed for the afternoon diving. Jin Guoqiang answered them at the back of the house, and the three of them carried the boxes to the deep pool.

"If the water level is not very high, we will find a reed bush on the shore and hide something in it, and the province will be found." Zi Yang said smartly, and couldn't help but hate Lao Wang a little more in his heart, if it wasn't for this guy taking Xiaoli and Brother Xiao on his own initiative, where would they be so troublesome.

"Well, we have to speed up the progress, we can't keep acting like this from Zhiqiu and Xiaoli, with so many things in and out, they will become suspicious sooner or later." Su Rui also said.

Jin Guoqiang nodded: "I hope the water level doesn't rise too much, otherwise it will be very troublesome." ā€

Everyone thought that after the heavy rain, the water level would rise sharply, but when they walked near the waterhole, the three of them stood there stunned.

"What's going on? Why hasn't the water level increased at all? Zi Yang looked at the deep water pool and said in surprise.

After a day and a night of torrential rain, the water level remained at yesterday's level. Although the reeds and grasses were blown away by the wind and rain, they were not flooded. The waterhole is still the same size I saw yesterday, but the water has become much more muddy.

"It's likely that there is an underground water flow below the pool! The stagnant water flows out of the ground, so the water level can always be maintained. Su Rui judged.

"Then you should be careful when you go down, if there is an undercurrent, it is a big threat to diving." Jin Guoqiang reminded.

The three of them put their equipment in the reeds, Su Rui first changed into a wetsuit in the reeds, and then put on the rebreather for Ziyang. After listening to Su Rui's introduction to the operating principle of this set of respirators, Jin Guoqiang couldn't help but praise repeatedly, saying that he had never seen such an advanced underwater respirator in the special forces.

Su Rui opened another box, and inside this box was a yellow machine, less than half a meter long, round and round, like a miniature torpedo.

"This is an underwater drone, with a camera and searchlight in front and a propeller in the back, which can be used to remotely control the drone. Here is the operation table and monitoring screen, and Captain Jin can operate it on the shore. Su Rui pointed to Jin Guoqiang and showed that there was an instrument like a laptop in the box.

Jin Guoqiang nodded, "I'll use this." ā€

Jin Guoqiang lifted the underwater drone and put it in the water, returned to the shore to turn on the power, and gently shook the joystick with his hand, and the drone gently rotated in the water. The surveillance screen shows an underwater image in front of the drone.

Because of the torrential rain, the water is very turbid, and the visibility in the camera is very low.

Su Rui saw that Jin Guoqiang was very proficient in operation, and knew that he had been trained in this area, so he was much more relieved. At that moment, he and Ziyang began to check each other's diving equipment.

Jin Guoqiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Ziyang, I have a question, do you have any expected purpose for this expedition?" Why do you have to go into the water? ā€

Zi Yang looked at Su Rui and said to Jin Guoqiang: "I watched the sky at night, and found that above this Qinhan Village is the stars sinking and the moon is setting, and the crape myrtle is bright. ā€

"Cemetery? Why are you like Li Tianming, and you started the dragon search point. Jin Guoqiang frowned and said, it seems that he was cheated by the charlatan Li Tianming, and he is still haunted.

"I can't say that, Li Tianming's set is a feng shui superstition, we are a scientific expedition, and there is a difference in nature." Ziyang talked nonsense to Jin Guoqiang.

After everything was ready, Zi Yang and Su Rui entered the water together, standing next to the drone on the left and right, holding on to the left and right armrests of the drone.

Su Rui put on the mask and made an OK gesture with Ziyang.

Zi Yang's respirator does not have a walkie-talkie pre-installed, so he can only communicate with Su Rui with gestures.

Su Rui said to Jin Guoqiang, "It's okay, let's act." ā€

Jin Guoqiang nodded, controlled the underwater drone to push down, and Zi Yang and Su Rui slowly swam towards the depths of the waterhole together with the help of the drone's power.
