Chapter 11 Into the Water
I thought there would be some important discovery, but when I read it carefully, I realized that it was purely descriptive. There's a long paragraph left behind, and I didn't read any further, just a cursory glance. In my judgment, this text should not have been written for a long time, and it is by no means the same age as the drawings. I remembered that Uncle Qian said that he took it himself, so I judged that his friend should be working in the government according to the civil service. This text, presumably, was written in a hurry without a notebook.
However, it is not difficult to find from it that this coincides with the folk saying: it is about the flooding of the Lion City and Hecheng in that year, which is mandatory!
I've heard a lot about the underwater Lion City and the Hecheng City for a long time. At that time, the people of the two cities were suddenly asked to move their families, and they had to move if they didn't move. This has caused resentment and anger among the people, especially some local people who have been born and raised for decades, and even those who have lived here for generations. He is even more reluctant to leave his hometown and his residence
But there is no way, since this notice has come out, even if you don't want to, you have to obey it. Because, that's what it means above. The people above also came up with such a policy for the sake of people's livelihood and economy here.
Accounts of this initiative are mixed. Some people agree, while others strongly oppose and resist to the death. Due to my age, I definitely didn't have time to participate. But when Duoduo and I came to Zhejiang, I heard many people say that many people did not leave the Lion City until they died. When the flood came, they were buried at the bottom of the lake with their former residence. Therefore, I heard that the yin qi below is still quite heavy.
Thinking of this, I can't help but be a little worried: if we want to say that there is a place with heavy yin qi, we will trespass in like this. That's certainly not good. Generally speaking, there is a little superstition that this world is born of yin and yang, but it is also yin and yang. To be more specific, where the yin energy is heavy, the yang energy is weak; Contrarily. Where yang is strong, yin is weak.
According to the previous gods and the older generation, for a long time, the yin and yang worlds have been well water and river water. That is to say, we living people walk our Yangguan Dao; And the dead naturally cross their single-plank bridge quietly. In general, it is rare to say that ghosts hurt people. Even if it happens, it's because we're living people who have violated some kind of taboo, or it's something that doesn't control it, such as ghosts.
Not sure why. I always had an indescribable feeling when I went into the water this time. It's not good or bad, it's just a feeling of fidgeting. To put it in layman's terms, it's like the feeling I had before I went to the exam room many years ago. Maybe it's because I don't have a bottom in my heart, if I had a bottom, it wouldn't be like this.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was movement outside the door. Looks like. It should be Uncle Qian, they are back. I kicked the old ghost who was still sleeping like a dead pig, and said, "Sleep so much." Hurry up and get to work! ”
The old ghost was mentioned by me, suddenly woke up from the sofa, and jumped up at once: "What's wrong?" Was there a fire? Where? Where? ”
"Lose your uncle's fire! It's time to get up and go into the water, but you want to catch fire! I said.
"No, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming that you're calling me to put out the fire. Said it was a fire somewhere. The old ghost said, seeing that he and I were fine, suddenly seemed to come back to his senses, and immediately said, "Why don't you be startled when I sleep next time?" Scared dad to death! ”
Too lazy to reason with the old ghost, I got up and prepared to open the door. That's when it happened. Uncle Qian, they opened the door and came in. When he saw that we were all in the house, he said, "Well, you have come back so early?" Have you all got everything? ”
I said, "It's all right!" Now I'm waiting for you to come back and go! ”
Uncle Qian said, "Yes! Looks like I'm underestimating both of you're capable sooner than I expected. In that case, let's take a little rest, have a little food, and set off. Everyone prepares their own way, and if there are no special circumstances, they will be solved within an hour. ”
"Roger!" Several of us said in unison.
In order to save time, we didn't cook and eat, but Uncle Qian brought back a ready-made box lunch. Also to save time, a few of us just swallowed a box of lunch chops and went our separate ways.
In the end, Uncle Qian said to us uncharacteristically: "Don't blame me for talking too much, go to the toilet when you should go to the toilet, and go to the toilet with a large size." Don't rush underwater and get inward, there's no way to solve it! ”
After he reminded me of this, my stomach and I were really uncomfortable. To be on the safe side, we just didn't want to go anyway. After finally cleaning up your stomach, this is the official assembly. Although I don't know how dangerous this adventure is, everyone is in good spirits and full of energy.
After a qiē was ready, a few of us were ready to go. Driven by Uncle Qian, a group of five of us came to Qiandao Lake. In order not to attract attention, Uncle Qian deliberately turned off the headlights when the car approached Qiandao Lake.
Due to the careful analysis and investigation beforehand, we deliberately chose the northwest corner where the water level is the shallowest in the past. After finding a hidden place to park our cars, we packed up our gear and headed to the lake. Before coming here, we all dressed ourselves in black to hide ourselves.
After choosing a location, we looked around to make sure no one was following or spotting, and then we put on our diving equipment.
Among the few of us, except for Uncle Qian, who I don't know very well, the other people have no problem with water at all. When I was in college, Duoduo and I used to go to the swimming pool. In the summer, I go there four or five times a week, and each time I choose a deep water area to splash in the water.
And Qian Cheng and I also know something, when he was in college, he participated in the winter swimming team. On the day of the 39th month, you can go into the water bare-chested. Although I call myself a strong swimmer, compared to him, it is really a drop in the bucket.
As the saying goes, "Those who don't look at the excitement will look at the doorway". After seeing Uncle Qian's series of actions, I knew that he was an expert! Although Uncle Qian's movements were not fast, I could judge that his water nature was definitely not below me based on the posture of packing up his diving equipment and warming up.
After we warmed up, we checked each other's dive watches and helped each other breathe to confirm each other's diving equipment. This operation is not trivial, and human lives are at stake, and it cannot be sloppy.
After getting ready, led by Uncle Qian, the five of us plunged into the water and were in good order. The water was cooler than I expected, but the water was brighter than I expected. (To be continued......)
