Chapter 51 Western Suburbs Reservoir

Li Xiao glanced at the desolate wall and sighed heavily, "The next task point is relatively far, in the Baye District, the western suburbs of the reservoir. ”

"Reservoir?" Lin Chen's face changed slightly, and he repeated unconsciously.

"yes, Reservoir, it's supposed to be a water ghost, huh?" Li Xiao looked at Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, is there any problem?" ”

"Ah, nothing." Lin Chen laughed twice and waved his hand, "Let's go, let's see if we can solve everything today." ”

……

"The reservoir in the western suburbs of the Baye District was built 50 years ago, which is a fairly old building, and according to the documents, the reservoir will be demolished next year."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in a bright orange life jacket, Jia Yi, who was the last staff member of the reservoir in the western suburbs.

"Well, okay," Li Xiao was wearing dark cyan rain boots at the moment, standing on the shore, and looked in the direction of Jia Yi's finger, "What is that?" Looks like a door? ”

"Flood gate, water pressure for drainage." Jia Yi sighed, "Soon Longjiang City will enter the rainy season again, and I don't know if the new reservoir has been completed." ”

Lin Chen keenly noticed that there was something in Jia Yi's words, and frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"What else could it be?" Jia Yi shrugged his shoulders, "Since the old reservoir was built, the maintenance fee has been in arrears almost all the time, and now not to mention other incidental functions, even the most basic flood control and flood discharge capacity will have problems." ”

"But, it looks okay now." Li Xiao glanced around.

The area of the reservoir in the western suburbs is very large, according to Jia Yi, it is a level II engineering level, the highest water storage capacity can reach 800 million cubic meters, and the ecological environment near the reservoir is also very good, according to incomplete statistics, there are 36 kinds of fish in the reservoir alone.

"That's all superficial," Jia Yi shook his head and pointed to the flood gate that Li Xiao looked at just now, "According to the design, the western suburbs reservoir should meet the national first-class standard, but now the cost is insufficient, and many equipment has not been replaced since the day it was built, and the motors in the flood gate are actually out of order, but I only dare to tell you two." ”

Speaking of this, Jia Yi lowered his voice, "According to my estimates, if the amount of water in Longjiang City in the rainy season exceeds the past, and the reservoir itself is close to the flood control high water mark, I can tell you very responsibly that the reservoir will collapse." ”

Li Xiao couldn't help but be taken aback, and wanted to ask something, but was pulled by Lin Chen, only to see Lin Chen staring at Li Xiao's eyes and slowly shaking his head.

"Mr. Jia, these things still bother the people above, besides, isn't the new reservoir under construction?" Lin Chen said, pulling Li Xiao behind him, "Mr. Jia, let's talk about that water ghost first." ”

"Okay, harm, I'm sorry, it's too much," Jia Yi touched his head and laughed twice, "Okay, actually, we've already arrived, and that's it." ”

"Here?" Lin Chen frowned and looked around the surface of the water, except for the occasional few water birds flying high, there was nothing at all, not even the supernatural aura.

"Let's talk about it specifically."

"Okay," Jia Yi recalled for a few seconds, and began to speak without hurrying or slowing.

It turns out that this Jia Yi also has a hobby that most middle-aged men have, that is, fishing.

In addition, Jia Yi is backed by the natural fish pond of the reservoir, not to mention that there is no one else here except him, so before it is almost evening, Jia Yi will choose to leave work early, prepare fishing tackle, and start fishing.

If you put it on at normal times, you can just fish for an hour and you're done.

But last night, Jia Yi didn't know why, and suddenly became energetic, so he had to try to fish at night.

The result was about nine o'clock in the evening, Jia Yi suddenly found that something was wrong, the light from his luminous fish should be getting brighter and brighter, but the strange thing is that now it is almost dark and can't see clearly.

At first, Jia Yi thought it was a quality problem, and after greeting the parents of the fish drift manufacturer, he changed several times one after another.

But unexpectedly, all the fish floats turned out to be problematic, and after a few rounds of trying, Jia Yi found that it should not be a fish drift problem, because this problem only occurs when he throws the fish float close to the center of the reservoir.

At first, Jia Yi thought it was some garbage pile or aquatic weeds over there, but just when he was about to change places to fish, the fish float sank suddenly!

Looking at the strength and speed, Jia Yi instantly realized that this was a big guy!

But when he happily began to wrestle with this big guy, Jia Yi realized that he had miscalculated outrageously! This power is simply not something that a normal fish can do!

When Jia Yi talked about this, Lin Chen also looked at him twice, well, he has muscles, he is very strong, and he is very strong.

"Go on."

"Okay."

But who is Jia Yi, a mountain man, who refused to admit defeat, he insisted on tying the fishing line to the trunk of the tree, and then wearing gloves and began to pull the fishing line in his direction little by little.

Obviously, Jia Yi is better in this game.

However, when Jia Yi was about to see the half-cut fish float that came out of the water, he suddenly realized that something was wrong!

The fish didn't struggle at all in the second half! Not only that, from the beginning of the wrestling, Jia Yi didn't hear a single sound of water! This fish has never been on the surface of the water at all!

Even if it's a big guy, you have to borrow it twice!

Thinking of this, no matter how stupid Jia Yi is, he should realize that something is wrong!

But his hands are faster than his brains!

In an instant, the remaining half of the fish float was also dragged out of the water, and with the help of the miner's lamp overhead, Jia Yi finally saw clearly what he was fishing!

That's a clump of black hair!

Through the dim light, Jia Yi could even faintly see the pale and swollen palm hidden in his hair, and its fingertips were pinching the half of the glow-in-the-dark fish float!

……

"It's over?" Li Xiao asked suddenly.

"Well, that's the end of it." Jia Yi nodded.

"Huh? What about the back? ”

"No, I'm sorry to say it, I fainted when I saw it, and I can't remember anything about the rest of the story," Jia Yi said in a small voice.

"Is that so," Lin Chen pondered for two seconds, in fact, he used inspiration to look at it the moment he met Jia Yi, Jia Yi was indeed contaminated with some supernatural aura, but that was a normal phenomenon, after all, this thing was also a master who dared to wrestle with water ghosts.

But strangely, why, did this water ghost not kill him?

"Well, uh, am I going to avoid it?" Jia Yi looked at the two young men in front of him quite nervously, this was also the first time he had dealt with soul slayers, ghosts and the like.

"No," Lin Chen glanced at his watch, it was two o'clock in the afternoon, "Mr. Jia, is there a boat?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay, please take it out," Lin Chen said, took off his coat, and put on his life jacket without hurrying, "Let's go to the middle of the reservoir you said and have a look." ”
