Chapter Ninety-Five: A City

The murky waters around the lake slowly settled down over time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This process may seem long, but it's actually quite fast. I just saved the two breaths in my pants and waited until the lake was clear again. During this time, the lungs were about to burst.

As the water cleared, the glowing thing finally became pleased. And when I saw what it was, I was stunned for a moment.

What kind of water monster is this, it's the diving equipment that the fat man sank to the bottom. The flashing and very regular light is actually just the indicator light on the oxygen cylinder.

No way. I secretly cursed in my heart, and said in my heart that this dead fat man actually sank things in such a deep place, and it was easy for me to find it.

Since this shiny thing is my diving gear, there's not much to say. In addition, I had loosened the slate earlier, and now my body was constantly going to float up. I took the opportunity to go back to shore with my equipment. Wait until I'm up and I'm ready to change my gear before coming down.

The process of ascending is still very fast. And with the weight of such an oxygen cylinder on my body, I also saved the effort of finding a large stone slab.

By the time I got to the bottom again, it was almost an hour.

I have to say that diving is really a physically demanding sport. It's even more tiring than measuring a kilometer at school.

I swayed under the lake dozens of meters deep for about ten minutes with a flashlight. During this time, I saw nothing but aquatic plants and some tiny fish. That's not to mention the secret passages.

With fins, it is much easier to move underwater. This allows me to search for more places in a short period of time. Although the lake is still cold and biting.

After searching for about half an hour, I suddenly noticed a huge black shadow not far ahead.

This black image stands like a tower in the water, and I can see the huge shadow from afar. It's just that I can't see clearly because of the poor underwater vision, but I can see a rough outline.

Judging from the outline, this is a bit like the kind of city gate in ancient times. The height of a building can be more than 10 stories high, let alone the width.

I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when I was in the Crystal Lan environment before, Lan said that there was a village under the lake. But when I thought about it, I suddenly felt that this thing was not so mysterious.

Fantasy is fantasy, how can things in fantasy come true?

But when my eyes fell on the huge black shadow again, I still chose to believe.

Anyway, if there is such a huge building under the fat burning lake, it must not be simple. And maybe the fat man also discovered this building, so they decided to go inside, and then they were trapped inside.

I glanced up at the oxygen pressure gauge in my hand. It shows that I've consumed more than half of the oxygen. This time, we didn't have enough manpower, so we only brought our own oxygen cylinders, and we didn't bring filling machines. This means that each of us only has one tank of oxygen to use. When it's gone, it's gone.

The tank of oxygen on his body will last about twenty minutes. After using it, I can barely hold on for about ten minutes. That means I still have half an hour to go into the façade of the building and look for the fat man.

Without further ado, having made up my mind, I swam straight into the shadow.

As I slowly approached the building, I slowly turned the aperture of the flashlight to the maximum. Only in this way can you see the whole picture of the city gate in front of you to the greatest extent.

This is a city gate made of bluestone slabs. The gate underneath the doorway has long since been corroded by the lake to the point that only one shape remains. I pressed my palm on the door and pushed it gently, and the entire one-story gate turned into a pile of ashes floating in the water.

I stepped back, thought about it, and swam in directly above the gate.

It is an ancient city that opens inside a mountain. Less than fifty meters above the city gate, I saw a mountain wall directly. The whole city was built inside the mountain, except for the gates, which were opened on the outside of the mountain.

What's going on? I looked at the entrance in front of me and frowned. I've never seen this way of building a city. Moreover, there are many irrationalities in this method of building cities. The simplest example is that in the event of an attack, a normal city can break out from each of the four directions. But this city is down, and the enemy only needs to defend such a gate, and everything will be fine.

It's weird. It's okay if this city is built like this, but why is it still built underground? And still in the water?

Although I felt strange in my heart, I sped up and swam inside in order to find the fat man as soon as possible.

Although it is said to be a city, it is actually only the size of a village today. When I swam more than 50 meters forward, another wall suddenly appeared in front of me.

This wall is also part of the mountain. However, the surface seems to have been deliberately polished. And I was able to notice that there was a large hole of about two meters in this wall.

A hole was made in the wall. I stopped at the entrance of the cave, raised my flashlight and shone it inside. It's too deep to see anything. The doubts in my heart are getting thicker and thicker.

Could it be that this is the fat man they typed? Or was it typed out by Lan? No, the fat man doesn't have the tools to steal the hole at all, and the equipment and technology requirements for this underwater hole are too high. With a limited supply of oxygen, even if the two of them fight together, it will be impossible to fight. And in this way, Nalan is even more impossible. Being able to dive so deep with bare hands is already a very awesome character. If only you could make such a big hole under the water...... This can't be a fucking mermaid, right?

No, it must not have been the fat man. And judging from the degree of digging of the hole, it definitely doesn't look like a new one.

I circled around the big hole in front of me several times, and was hesitating to go in when the light of the flashlight suddenly hit a line.

This line was carved into the hole with something sharp. And judging from the degree of newness and oldness, this is definitely not long after it was first engraved.

As soon as my heart moved, I vaguely felt that this was left by one of the fat people. This may have been an attempt to let later people know that they got in from here.

I leaned closer, tapped my flashlight on the line at the entrance of the cave, and looked closely. I decided that this fucking must have been left by a fat man. Although the fat man is not highly educated, he can't change his habit of dancing and writing. And the traces of his writing, one by one, imitated the official script. Even to the point of bluntness. And the line of words in front of him is exactly the same as the fat man's usual habit of writing.

We went in. Danger, don't come in.

The payment is a fat man.

I was stunned for a moment, and my heart said that I would go in if I knew that there was danger. Isn't this fucking looking for death? Wait, what the hell is this, this can't be the fat man's last words, right?

I shuddered at the thought of it, and my eyes couldn't help but glance at the entrance to the black hole next to me.

But that's not right. Although the fat man is usually unreliable, he is definitely not the kind of reckless person. If he knew it was dangerous, why didn't he turn around and go back. And then bounce back and come back? Knowing that there is danger inside, this is definitely not in line with the fat man's personality.

Could it be ...... Is there any compelling reason?

When I thought of this, my heart suddenly chuckled. A very bad thought came to mind.

Knowing that there is danger and going in is definitely a decision made when the situation is urgent and unavoidable.

Could it be that there is some danger, such as being chased all the way by something. And then had to hide inside?

I stepped back a short distance and re-looked at the size of the entrance in front of me. The heart said that if this damn thing could be chased by one thing to such a big hole, how big should the thing be chasing them? And even if this situation is true, in such an urgent situation, the fat man will never have time to carve such a few words outside.

Could it be ...... This image began to come to my mind.

The fat man and He Tao discovered this entrance. Without knowing why they had to enter, they made a decision. That is, in order to prevent accidents inside, and Tao went in first. Then an agreed time. If He Tao didn't come out when the appointed time came, then the fat man would hurry back. After making this agreement, He Tao went in first. The result, of course, is that the time is up, and Tao has not yet come out. The fat man was in a hurry, and he didn't bother to care about whether he left first, so he carved the words "We went in, danger, don't come in" at the entrance, and then went in to save Hetao.

This reasoning is the most in line with the usual behavior of the fat man and He Tao. I shuddered again, and said to myself, isn't this a fool? Knowing that one dies when you go in, is the fucking idle egg hurting?

But then again. Why did they choose to go inside? The big city below them was enough to search for half a day, so why were they so interested in a cave?

Could it be that Lan also entered through this entrance before? I was stunned. But it didn't feel quite right.

The fat man, they found the hole at a time that was several days away from the water in the water. Unless Lan also left a mark at this entrance, otherwise how could the fat people know that Lan had entered from here?

Thinking about it, I searched around the entrance again.

This time I looked very carefully. As long as there are traces of human beings on it, it will definitely not escape my eyes.
