"Under the surname Cha, the name is Wenbin, and he is a wilderness Taoist." Cha Wenbin did not intend to hide it, he said directly: "A few days ago, there was a young man who lost his life inexplicably in the Merlin Reservoir, I suspect that it is related to the reservoir, after so many years, this reservoir has once again murdered the incident, I think Mr. Lu does not want to recall the past events, but this matter is a matter of human life, I am afraid that more people will be robbed one after another, and I hope that the old man can see the Buddha's feelings, know everything, of course, in the next will abide by the promise not to reveal half a word of what the old man said." ”

After hearing this, Lu Liang leaned on the sofa and sighed softly and said: "After all, what should come will still come, no matter what, I have heard of your reputation, many colleagues told me that there is a Cha Wenbin fortune teller in Anxian County who is very accurate, and I also thought about looking for you to help me take a look at the Yin House, but I heard that Mr. is no longer interested in the world, so I am not embarrassed to bother again." It's a bit long to talk about, and that's when I was in Yongtai Commune......"

The town where I am located is located in the west of Anxian County, is a confluence of two provinces and three counties, according to legend, there was a post station here in ancient times, and because of the importance of its geographical location, it gradually evolved into an economically developed town, mainly doing some business of buying and selling passers-by and distributing goods, and some historical relics from before the five dynasties and ten kingdoms can still be seen today.

In the movement at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the aborigines of the town were almost slaughtered, and some of the surviving people also scattered and fled, and then some outsiders fled one after another, so there is a special phenomenon in this town: the dialects between villages are different, probably because at that time, the escape from the famine was based on the village, which also formed a miniature version of ethnic integration.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was established as a township, and in 1958, the Yongtai Commune was established, and in that year, the commune began to build a collective economy, and the construction of the Merlin Reservoir began in that era.

Lv Liang was the first batch of college students after the founding of the People's Republic of China, this kind of students were in high demand, in the spirit of supporting the local economic construction, he was assigned to Anxian County to engage in water conservancy work after graduation, after the establishment of Yongtai Commune in 58 years, Lv Liang as a local technician with the superior department and other eleven people into the Molin Reservoir construction site. However, the slight difference from the information is that the remaining eleven people are not in the role of people, but real young technicians.

This group of technicians are all disciples of Lu Liang, including some college students and very popular secondary school students, their average age is only in their early twenties, it is the time of youth, when the main task of this line of twelve people is to cooperate with the internship. The lack of talent for large-scale water conservancy projects was common at that time, and Lu Liang felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy, and these young people also cherished this opportunity very much, knowing that this project was in top secret to the outside world at that time!

"No. 5813," Lu Liang said, "this is the mission code of the Merlin Reservoir in your mouth, does it sound a little surprising, I also went to the construction site to know that this is not an ordinary water conservancy project, the task of the commune is only to provide logistical support for the more than 200 people who are active in the construction site, and they have no place to be needed in terms of manpower." ”

As soon as Lu Liang arrived at the construction site, he was told that they needed to stay here until the end of the project, and everyone signed a confidentiality agreement, the content of which was that the specific work that occurred in Mission 5813 could not be disclosed to the outside world, and when the project was over, they would declare that it was just an ordinary water conservancy project. The more than 200 people who were busy working on the construction site had no names, and they confirmed each other by numbers, from 001 to 235, each with their own number on their clothes. These people all spoke with different accents, and seemed to come from all over the world, but all of them were young adults in their twenties and thirties, and they rarely communicated with the twelve local communes who came to work, and everyone was assigned their own engineering tents, while the people in Luliang mainly worked in surveying and mapping, and they needed to report the surveying and mapping work report to the person codenamed 003 every day.

Lü Liang was not the first to arrive, construction had already begun on the area before them, and the leader pointed to the pre-existing water area and told him that a huge water conservancy project would soon be erected here, and the people of Anxian County would never be without electricity again. And as the daily appearance of carts loaded with mud mixed with human bones, the original history of Merlin Town began to slowly emerge underwater, more and more old ruins were dug out of those abandoned forests, and some people who did not wear overalls transported metal boxes with seals to the mountains every day.

The construction site is under strict militarized management, adopting a system of continuous sitting, and every day you have to go to work and get off the roll call, and there are also people at several main exits, and it is said that even a mosquito can not fly out without the approval of 001. According to the original design, the reservoir needs to be expanded on the basis of the original, and it is necessary to dig deeper, and the drainage of half a month is continuous, and the engineers repair the dam upstream to block the water source for drainage, and dozens of diesel pumping machines pump the water in the original Taiji pond outward. To this day, Lu Liang is still a little excited when he talks about the moment when the water level bottoms out:

"It was about ten o'clock in the morning, I took the students to do surveying and mapping on the side of the mountain, and suddenly I heard bursts of exclamations from the shore from time to time, I looked up on a small hill and looked down, the pond was constantly flooding with yellow soup, and the big gulps of water out, and a huge stone monument was the first to show a corner, and then from the comparison with the size of those people around it, the stone monument had to be about two stories high. We were excluded at the time, and when the monument came out, we were called back to the camp and were not allowed to enter or leave the site. But that night, I was called out again because they were having some difficulties and wanted me to participate in the discussion to see if there was a solution. ”

The water level, in the daytime when the stele was exposed, everyone was very excited, which means that the pumping work for more than half a month is coming to an end, but I didn't expect the water level to come here and how can not go down, the team has full power of the pumping machine, but no matter how much water you pump out, it is instantly replenished back, and after measurement, it is estimated that there is about ten meters deep under the stele. Lu Liang is a local water technician, so he was called to verify whether there is an underground river in this area that can replenish the water level, and if so, I am afraid that he will have to find the dark river to cut it off.

According to the geological structure of Molin Town, Lu Liang proposed at the meeting that the possibility of an underground river could not be ruled out, but the underground river was often nowhere to be found, and even if the solid basalt was found, it was difficult to construct, so he had to suggest that the plugging method should be used, which was a bold idea at the time. Lu Liang proposed to send divers down to lock the location of the yellowing soup to see if there was a large water outlet, and then use the way of towing to block it with heavy cement blocks poured in advance, as long as a quarter of the water output can be blocked, the water level will rise faster than the falling speed, and it will only be a matter of time before the water falls out.

His proposal was affirmed, and it was precisely because of this proposal that Lu Liang's status in the team quietly changed, and he began to be allowed to touch some places that he could not approach in the past. According to his suggestion, divers quickly figured out the location, and there were indeed outlets under the water, and there were as many as seven places, because the water was huge, and people could not approach it at all, and they could only mark the approximate location. In this way, seven huge blocks of construction cement mixed with steel bars were slowly lowered, so that the water level was no longer gushing so violently as in the past, and the gradually declining water level made everyone feel the joy of the imminent victory of the revolution again.

"When I saw the giant turtle coming out, I knew I might have made a mistake." Lu Liang said: "Its scientific name is called Dumpling, also known as Baxia or Turtle Fall. My university teacher, a very famous water conservancy scholar during the Republic of China, once told us in class that if you see a water in a certain water, then the best thing to do is not to touch it, because once you move it, there is a high probability that some unpredictable consequences will occur. ”

Cha Wenbin nodded and said: "Legend has it that in ancient times, he often carried three mountains and five mountains, making waves in rivers, lakes and seas. Later, Dayu subdued the Baxia when he controlled the water, and the Baxia obeyed the command of Dayu, pushed the mountain and dug the ditch, dredged the river, and made a contribution to the water control. The flood was subdued, and Dayu was worried that the Baxia would scatter wild everywhere, so he moved the extra-large stone tablet that stood up to the sky, and engraved the deeds of the Baxia to control the water, and called the Baxia to carry it, and the heavy stone tablet pressed it so that it could not walk casually. With it, the mountains and rivers will be stable, and it is indeed not easy to move in feng shui, and then you dismantled it? ”

"That's the biggest Baxia I've ever seen in my life, it's still indescribable, around that Baxia only to find that all the cement blocks that fell were pressed on its body, there are seven water outlets above its turtle shell, showing a perfect Big Dipper trend, you can imagine how shocked those of us were at that time!"
