"Ah Shen, poker face, you come and see. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Yu Yue's voice came from not far away. Pokerface instinctively sensed that something must be wrong, and he rushed back with Shen. I saw Ma Yisha and Yu Yue standing on the edge, looking down, "Look, the water level has receded." ”

Ah Shen became happy, "The water level has receded, does it mean that we can get out of the old man's passage?" ”

"What passage?" Mayisha's mood calmed down a lot, and her first reaction came to pass.

"Do you remember the maze map your grandfather drew you? There is a passage in the lake below that leads to the bottom of Lake Aydin. ”

Maisha shook her head, "No. It was indeed an escape route we had designed, but it hadn't been used for decades, and it was at the bottom of the lake, so it was likely to be blocked. Originally, this passage was more than 100 meters long, and we had no equipment, so it was impossible to get out in one go. The passage is long and narrow, allowing only one person to pass through, and if you find that the passage is blocked halfway, this person may not have time to come back, and he will already die of breathlessness. I can't let you take that risk. ”

"It's too late." Poker Face calmly stared at the water that was constantly lowering the water level and said.

"It's too late for anything."

"Because of the explosion of the village, the terrain of the village was suddenly lowered, and the water here was backflowing, and the water here will soon be pumped away." Pokerface explained.

"Wouldn't it be better to pull away? When the water is drained, we just walk out of the passage. Ah Shen said happily.

"It would be nice if that were the case, because the river channel is already silt, and the silt is soft, and when the water dries, the mud carried by the water will automatically block the channel. When the time comes, even if we want to get out, we can't help it. ”

"What then?" Ah Shen scratched his head anxiously.

"Let's go to the qanats down there." Poker Face was the first to go down to the well, and at this moment the water in the well was just below his ankles, and Poker Face walked to the edge of the well, looking at the underground lake water stirring like a whirlpool.

"What's down there?" Ah Shen panicked.

"It's a whirlpool at the bottom of the lake." Pokerface stared silently at the churning waters on the lake, as if waiting for something. Suddenly he said softly, "Inhale." In the next second, Ah Shen had been pushed into the lake by Poker Face.

"Ah Shen!" Yu Yue shouted, only to see the poker face jump into the lake, toss twice in the lake, and then disappeared.

Yu Yue didn't care so much, exchanged glances with Mayisha, and both jumped into the lake.

The water of the lake was bitterly cold, and Maisha swam to the bottom of the lake like a fish. He saw Poker Face holding Ah Shen behind her, and she waved her hand in the water, and as fast as she could, she penetrated into a black hole at the bottom of the lake.

The hole was so narrow that she could only pass through it. She struggled upstream, slamming away the mud she had clutched, holding back the last bit of breath. But halfway through the swim, she felt depleted, her breath was loosened, and a big gulp of bubbles flew out of her mouth. I choked on several mouthfuls of water, and my whole body was stuck in the hole, unable to move.

Poker Face followed behind Maisha, grabbed Ah Shen with one hand, and pushed Maisha hard with the other. But Maisha didn't move. Ah Shen didn't know how to water in the first place, and was pushed into the water by the poker face, and he was holding his breath for a while, but now he can't hold on, he spit out bubbles again and again, choked on several mouthfuls of water, and his trachea hurts hotly. The four men were stuck in the passage and could no longer move.

Yu Yue was about to faint in a daze, and at the end, her body had already sunk unobeyed. Suddenly, she felt a huge air flow rushing from under her feet. She instinctively kicked her leg and began to ascend......

With the last bit of strength, she opened her eyes slightly, and there was a bright light shining down from the deep bottom of the lake. She slackened, let go of the last of her strength, and began to sink.

The light flickered overhead, and a figure jumped down and swam swiftly towards her. She saw clearly, it was Ah Shen. She opened her mouth and smiled, finally losing consciousness.

Yu Yue woke up and turned around, her chest still hurting hotly. The blazing sun scorched the earth, and they lay on the salt crust on the edge of Lake Aydin, watching the sun shine brightly. Yu Yue felt very tired, and her whole body didn't look like her own. She thought that at the bottom of the lake, when she was about to die, it was Ah Shen who jumped down to save her. She got up with a mutter, and found Ah Shen lying next to her. And Pokerface and Mayisha are long gone.

"Ah Shen, Ah Shen!" Before Ah Shen woke up, Yu Yue lay down and listened to Ah Shen's heartbeat. She lay down beside him again.

"There are people there! ......" a noisy voice came from afar, "It's Yu Yue!" Zhuo Fan strode here. Yu Yue propped up her body and found that Zhuo Fan was rushing here with a large group of people.

Zhuo Fan took Yu Yue and Ah Shen away from Ayding Lake. Drop off in the car.

Yu Yue sat in the car and saw a group of people still surrounding the black pressure not far away, and asked puzzledly, "What is that place?" ”

"We didn't know either, we heard a huge explosion early this morning, so a lot of people came. Now it's all journalists there. ”

"Journalists?" Yu Yue was puzzled. "Why are there so many reporters gathered in just a while?"

"I don't know, this morning, there were many, many reporters from Turpan, and all the magazines and radio stations came. Said to have received the news, there is major news. ”

Ah Shen sat in the car, quietly unusual. Yu Yue pushed Ah Shen, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Poker Face and Mayisha are gone?"

"By the way, what about Maisha? Didn't I come with you? And also...... Who is Poker Face? Zhuo Fan said as he drove, "Dr. Shen, why are you here?" ”

Zhuo Fan asked a series of questions, Yu Yue just smiled, "It's a long story, I'll talk to you when I have a chance in the future." ”

Yu Yue looked at the vast Gobi wilderness where the car drove by, "Mayisha should be going home." As for the poker face...... "Her heart was heavy, and her mood was as heavy as the red sunset on the horizon."

Yu Yue and Ah Shen returned to the hotel and slept for two days before relieving. After that, the two of them changed into Uygur national costumes and walked around Turpan for several days, almost playing all the big and small scenic spots. After the past few days, there are many fewer reporters in Turpan. In those days, reporters flocked to the site of the explosion and took many photos back. Yu Yue and Zhuo Fan also went to see it, Yu Yue did not tell Zhuo Fan the cause of the explosion, but only reminded him in disguise: In other parts of the world, there have been many such potholes, and scientists have already given the answer.

Zhuo Fan could only look at the bottomless lake in the pit and express his amazement.

And what lingers in Yu Yue's heart is still the whereabouts of Poker Face and Maisha. This is also the reason why she is reluctant to leave Turpan. She believes that as long as she stays here, one day, she will see Pokerface. She wanted to ask about Maisha's whereabouts and the identity of Pokerface.

However, after staying in Turpan for a week, Yu Yue did not wait for the poker face. Instead, I waited for a letter. The letter was written by poker face, and Yu Yue was lost for a long time after reading it before showing it to Ah Shen.

"If you write a letter, you have to find someone to write it for you." Shen spread out the letter and muttered.

"What did you say?" Yu Yue didn't hear Ah Shen's words clearly.

"Nothing." After speaking, Ah Shen looked at the letter.

"Ah Shen, Yu Yue:

I'm fine, don't read it. Mayisha has gone back to where she is supposed to be, and I am leaving Turpan as well. I am a traveler who lives all over the world, and I am fortunate to meet you, which is fate and luck. See you in the future. Best wishes.

Poker face"

In just a few lines, Yu Yue and Ah Shen were full of emotion. "If it weren't for Pokerface, we'd have died underground." After saying that, she burst into tears.

Ah Shen felt inexplicably sad, he touched the corner of his sour eye, "I'll go out for a walk." With that, he ran away with a puff of smoke.

Ah Shen wandered the streets of Turpan and didn't know where to go. Halfway through, I asked the vendor on the side of the road to buy half a melon, and I sat on the side of the road and nibbled on it. He gnawed and gnawed, and several children threw stones at him. He threw the melon and went after the children, but the children were very clever, and ran away with a grimace at him, leading him into an empty alley.

In the blink of an eye, the children were gone. Ah Shen walked back on the ground, and suddenly heard someone behind him calling him, "Hey." ”

Ah Shen turned around and saw a man wearing a huge camouflage uniform, standing against the wall in the alley. The man just stood expressionless, the shadow of the alley hitting his face, and he looked at Ah Shen quietly.

"Poker face?" Ah Shen approached in disbelief, "Why are you here, I said I couldn't find you." ”

Poker Face took off his hood and took something out of his pocket, "This is Yu Yue's, help me give it back to her." With that, put on your hood and go.

"You're leaving?" Ah Shen blamed Poker Face in his heart, and was embarrassed to let him stay, "Didn't you write a letter?" Why don't you send this with the letter? ”

"I can only leave it to you, not to mention ......" Poker Face slowly turned back and looked at Ah Shen deeply, "I want to see you." With that, he put his hands in his pockets and walked away without looking back.

Ah Shen stood in place and watched Poker Face go farther and farther away, disappearing into the crowd on the street. "What, I've been born and died together, so I just said I was leaving?" Ah Shen's heart was empty, he spread out his palm, and what was lying in his palm was a bronze medal.
