14. Take action

"I see." I said to myself, to be honest, I was already stunned at that point. If I hadn't seen that fleeting image, I would never have imagined that my mask would be here.

Everyone present at that time was stunned, they looked at me like ghosts, and even the old man showed disbelief in his eyes. All kinds of emotions in my heart came up one after another, but the only clear brain in my heart still told me that I must go to this place.

After a few minutes, the fat man and Lu Qingdong sat down first, Lu Qingdong looked at me and said, "Explain?" ”

"That's not right." Suddenly, the old man stared at the TV screen and said, "This is not the same as your boy's mask. ”

"What?" I turned my head to look. Sure enough, I was too excited before, but if I was ten points, it was still only two points, and these two points were the general lines of the slender bronze nose and mask. But the overall thing is still the same, and at the same time, fortunately, he also explained this matter to Lu Qingdong in an alternative way. But the fat man is different, and he is probably starting to have questions about my mask.

I didn't have time to pay attention to their thoughts, I sat alone on the stool and started to press the mask with my hand, it was strange, it was so strange. Why is it here. No, no, no, it was useless to just guess, I stood up, looked at them and said, "I'm going there." ”

"I don't know who put the mask on me." I said to them, "But now I seem to know, I thought I would see it in a long time, far away, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden, for me, life and death have no meaning, it's like an empty shell, you don't know anything, it's meaningless to live." But now the turnaround has come, and I don't expect to go anywhere, I'm going to go down that pool, and I want to know what it is. Old man. I looked at Master Brie and said, "If you have any problems, you can go first, I will stay here, and I will go down no matter what." ”

"No, it's too messy." The old man held my hand.

"You know what?" I slapped his arm away, "You just want to find the murderer of your friend, but what about me?" I'm alone and I don't know who I am? I don't have a memory, I can't face so many people alone, I just want to quietly get back my own memory. ”

"Good!" Suddenly, my confused brain shouted to a voice to clear up a lot, and I saw the fat man clapping his palms very unexpectedly and coming over, he roared stupidly, and clapped his hands, like a full second goods, "Very good." He wiped the oil from the side of his mouth, and I realized that the idiot had been stealing food before. But before I could react, he hugged me, and kept rubbing his mouth against the clothes on my shoulder. After a long time, in the strange eyes of everyone, he patted my chest very seriously.

", you're crazy." I looked at the large patch of grease on my shoulder and cursed. But I immediately calmed down when he messed with me like this, and Lu Qingdong was also there before and I seemed to have revealed a lot of things.

"Alright! You convinced me, poor boy. "Master Brie took out his mobile phone and made a call, and I already heard him mail the package that had been mailed to Lincang again, and asked for an inflatable boat and 4 wetsuits. Instead, he asked Wang Lei to show his police ID card and deceive Lu Qingdong, "I'm sorry, we are from the Public Security Bureau, and we are tracking down a person who committed murder with a mask, and this little ghost was also hit in the brain by the murderer during the mission again, resulting in amnesia, but when he woke up, the murderer took the mask he used when he committed the murder." ”

"Hey, hey. Isn't this Conan's plot? I complained to myself, even though it was an explanation of what I had said before, but it seemed too reluctant. It's just that fortunately, the police card is real, Lu Qingdong and his wife were stunned by the old man, and at the same moment I noticed the fat man, this guy who has been with us did not show surprise and sudden realization, and only a surprising composure remained on his face, as if he didn't hear what the old man said at all.

Then we watched the video with all kinds of different psychology, as expected, the thing with the same mask as me dragged him underwater, but in the video, Lu Qingdong's friend's skills seem to be very good, when he was dragged to the bottom of the pool, he broke free from the water, and finally swam back to the waterhole with great effort, but halfway through, his expression was a little trance and he grabbed him indiscriminately on his body, and then he seemed to be suddenly awake in the water. Slowly he swam back to the edge of the pool, and finally he was rescued by the people, and finally some people's voices began to pop out of the stereo, and the dull "movie" finally ended.

There are four puzzling places, first, why did he know that the place where he surfaced did not have the top of the cave? He had been underwater all the time, and even if he could look up, he couldn't see the situation on the water, not to mention that it was still dark around him. Second, what is the end of the pool? A little pond? Why is it worth it for him to watch it back and forth so many times, and not to use a camera to capture it. Third, where did that bronze mask come about? And there is one thing that does not need to be questioned, it is exactly the same as mine, the difference is only the length of the nose. Fourth, and most importantly, why didn't that bronze mask catch up? Why did he wake up after suffocating underwater?

Time passed little by little, during this period we didn't go anywhere, the old man Brie kept watching the video, it seemed that in his opinion, there were more things for us to learn from in this dull video, Wang Lei and Xu Ming had been to the county for 2 days, and they had to buy some things on their own. The fat man didn't mean to leave us, he stayed in the house with me all the time, and discussed some things about women and men.

One day, two days. The old man didn't come up with a reason, and the fat man and I chewed my mouth, but it was Wang Lei and Xu Ming who came back, and they brought a few caving suits, saying that they were in case of emergency.

We looked at the big bag of things on the ground and were dumbfounded, there were helmets, descenders, chest harnesses and ascenders, oxtail ropes and calcium carbide cans, etc., it was said that the price was still very expensive, but I also knew that it was the fat man's money, and the fat man told us that he had been doing business and rarely had access to this kind of experience of being close to the underground world adventure, so this time we had to bring him anyway.

I said no, this matter was completely arranged by the old man, and he would definitely not agree to this matter, and the fat man smiled at me and said to me that as long as he could go to Monkey Mountain with us, he would have a way to go into the water.

On the third day, a large number of our equipment and inflatable boats were pulled back from the county by Lu Qingdong. The old man also prepared a long knife for me, saying that if you feel insecure, then give your life to it.

I took the knife out of its scabbard. It was a long sword, the blade of which was as slender as a silver-white ribbon, like a stream of water sliding down from a high place. The hilt of the sword is made of a strange mummy skull, and its structure is strange, and the sword extends from the mummy's eyes and finally condenses and converges. But the handle is spit out of the mummy's mouth, etc., one eye and one mouth, this is a double-sided mummy, what does this mean?

"This sword is a curse, the only weapon in Tutankhamun's tomb." The fat man suddenly shouted and asked Master Brie, "How did you have this sword?" ”

The old man smiled mysteriously and did not speak, but told me to put away the sword, and then handed me a backpack, saying that it was a puff nail inside; hanging piece; Pulley; rope protection; storage bags; Water utensils, gloves, waterproof bags, matches or lighters, and a few small and scattered items.

We reviewed the plan again that day to make sure it was safe, and then at 3 p.m., Lu Qingdong sent us over. On the way, the old man asked the fat man why he came, and the fat man said that he wanted to come and play because he wanted to linger here, Wang Lei and Xu Ming looked at each other and did not speak, no one knew what kind of bad luck this strange fat man could bring us? Or is it that he, a layman, will die early in the waterhole?

Lubuge is 46 kilometers away from Luoping County, and it is located on the mountain beam on the bank of the Huangni River, the boundary river between Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. "Lu Buge" is the Chinese pronunciation of the Buyi language. "Lu" is the meaning of the nation, "cloth" is the meaning of "the mountains and rivers are beautiful", "Ge" is the meaning of "village", and "Lu Buge" means the Buyi village with beautiful mountains and rivers.

The Lubuge "Little Three Gorges" Scenic Area is formed by the backwater of the dam of the Lubuge Hydropower Station, with a total length of 20 kilometers. The water quality of the gorge lake is pure and crystalline, and the majestic, dangerous, strange and beautiful landscapes on both sides of the river are painted and woven into a beautiful landscape painting.

On the hill we first arrived at the power station, and a few hundred meters up there was a huge propaganda board. After another distance, we came to the Brugg Three Gorges Scenic Area. Since it was around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, many tourists had already gone down the mountain, so there were a lot of people coming and going, before Wang Lei and Xu Ming contacted their colleagues in Luoping County, and obtained the qualification to enter the scenic area with various packages.

It was another dreary journey, and we finally saw the ship docked on the shore, the last one. We got on the boat one after another with the packages, the old man asked why the fat man would follow, the fat man continued to lie to Lao Tzu to go to Monkey Mountain just by the way, so the old man was not good to say anything, a distance of flat mountains and light clouds on all sides, we finally came to the interior of the canyon.

The tour guide of other groups is still saying to his visitors, "Now the cruise ship has entered the first gorge of the scenic spot: Lion Gorge, that is, the lion guarding the first gorge, this lion holds his head high, smiles proudly, and welcomes friends with the highest etiquette of the Lion King." Because of its meritorious service, the local Buyi people named the first canyon Xiongshi Gorge in order to commemorate its merits. In the mid-nineties of the last century, Mr. Ling Hu'an, the former secretary of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee, wrote several wonderful poems for the beautiful scenery of Luoping when he inspected Luoping, one of which was described as follows: "The lion auspicious cloud is like the door open, and 100,000 Furong comes out of the water." The Heavenly Maiden Luo has thousands of feet of sleeves and persuades you to go to the golden platform." These poems are the true portrayal of Luo Ping's scenery. ”

We closed our eyes one after another, and I was no longer in the mood to look at the scenery around us, and I could feel my heart beating faster, and I could feel the surging tide.

The cliffs on both sides are getting higher and higher, more and more, mountain after mountain, and even those hanging stalactites can be clearly visible. However, fortunately, the water level is very high now, and it is not the rainy season, so the water potential in the canyon is not very large, and the scenery of the canyon is not very dangerous.

Finally, we came to the Monkey Mountain under a waterless journey, and carried a large bag and a small bag on the Monkey Mountain in the eyes of everyone, the old man held Lu Qingdong's hand, and thanked him very much, saying that we would definitely visit their house when we went down the mountain.

The road up the mountain is very dangerous, and there are not many tourists in this place, and most people will still look at the scenery on both sides of the river in the water of the Three Gorges and also look at the monkeys living in the trees. Ten minutes later, I first arrived at the waterhole, and a group of monkeys were babbling next to the waterhole, and they didn't run when they saw us walking past, and even scratched their heads at us, which made the fat man laugh.

The old man drove away the monkeys and unloaded his backpack from his shoulders, and then saw a river in front of me, and I walked over to it to take a look at the water. The ditches between the mountains are scattered with falling rocks of different shapes, a few are polished into an oval shape by the impact of the river, some are like a stone umbrella in the water, the intersection of the stone bottom and the water is covered with green moss, some small fish swim around the stones, the water potential seems not to be high but the flow is a little fast, the turbulent water rushes through the small raised stones in the river and splashes milky white water, the sound of the rushing water, coupled with the slight moisture after the rain, there is an indescribable refreshment in the face.

At the end of the river is the deep pool, but the water does not flow into the pool, and the people next to me said that if it were not for the collapse of the mountain, no one would have thought that the water in this pool actually flowed from the other side of the mountain.

The crystal in the waterhole is crystal clear, cool and restrained, I washed my face in the waterhole, and the old man directly said to the fat man that you want to go there to play, just play there? We're starting to get into the pool.
