Chapter 21: Save You
Zheng Haizhu adjusted her breathing as much as she could, slid her arm, and swam to the stone wall in front of her left.
After a few freestyle swings, she approached the rock.
Then, she tried to relax her legs as much as she could, slowly stepping on the water, poking her whole head out of the water.
She wiped a handful of cold droplets of water from her face and examined the stone wall closely.
The further you swam into the recesses of the rock wall, the salty smell of water, algae, and dead shells became heavier, filling the air around you.
But this extremely unpleasant olfactory experience was quickly overwhelmed by surprise.
Zheng Haizhu saw a rock next to a recess, and near the waterline, there was a hole three feet square, but the edge was very irregular.
That's it!
In her last life, she was hired as a temporary worker by the crew for 500 yuan, and went into the sea to be a stand-in for the female number one.
As a result, the filming still did not go well. The agent of the traffic Xiaosheng male No. 1 was dissatisfied with Xiaosheng's image in the camera was too embarrassed, and constantly put pressure on the director.
Zheng Haizhu was not stupid enough to soak in the water to watch them quarrel, but slipped around the stone wall and found a reef where she could swing her buttocks on her back, so she jumped out of the water and sat on the edge of the stone to rest and maintain her strength. No, when she looked back, she was shocked to find that behind her "throne" was actually a cave, estimated to be three or four meters deep, but she could see the bottom at a glance, but the strange thing was that the cave wall seemed to be quite smooth, as if there were traces of artificial excavation and polishing.
At that time, Zheng Haizhu guessed that this would not be the place where the ancients put their coffins, right?
After filming, his curiosity as an eighteenth-tier screenwriter prompted Zheng Haizhu to inquire in the fishing village. Finally, an eighty-year-old man told her that the cave was rumored to have been the treasure of the great pirate Wang Zhi during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, and in the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu sailors dug up the contents of the cave, and the locals of Daishan knew that there was a cornucopia at the door of the house.
And at this moment, the scene in front of him and the picture in Zheng Haizhu's memory are by no means as simple as overlapping.
Five hundred years later, the cave is sealed by two stone slabs in this time and space!
Zheng Haizhu felt that her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if it overshadowed the gentle and slow moaning of the waves.
Trying to suppress her excitement, she lifted her upper body slightly in the water with the soles of her feet, raised her arms to climb a less sharp stone wall, and slowly formed a posture of a monkey hanging from a branch, supporting most of her body's weight, and then leaning her right shoulder to explore the stone slab with her right hand.
Zheng Haizhu quickly confirmed that this could not be a reef that was naturally stuck here.
The edges of two stone slabs, mostly half-submerged in seawater, are separated by five or six protrusions. Even groping in the water, she could feel the gaps between the bulges and the stone slabs.
It is obvious that the hinges are artificially carved, so these two stone slabs are the doors of the cave!
Zheng Haizhu's morale was greatly boosted, he pushed a handful of reefs with his left hand, moved his body by reaction force, and grabbed the upper edge of the stone gate with his right hand.
She now understands the secrecy of this place.
In the morning, when the sea water is relatively low, about one-third of the stone gate will be exposed, but due to the orientation of the stone wall, from morning to afternoon, it is backlight, and people are a little farther away, and this stone gate is a black and gloomy piece, and the surrounding reef is integrated.
It was only when the sun was completely westerly that the sun reached the stone wall on which the two doors were located, but at that time the tide was high and the sea had submerged them, and no one could see them.
Haikou Wang Zhi, died in the Jiajing period after the entrapment of the imperial court, the Ming Dynasty still maintained the sea ban for eight or nine years, although there was a Longqing switch, Daishan Island has always been barren, until a few years ago Yan Siqi occupied this island, immigrants dried salt, reclamation.
However, Yan Siqi's big boats are all parked in other harbors on Daishan Island, and even if the sporadic fishing boats around the island pass by, they will be disturbed by the light and tides, and the seaweed shells will cover them, so no one has found these two symmetrical stone slab doors so far.
Zheng Haizhu was complacent about the derivation of his God's perspective, and at the same time pressed his nose to the stone door, his eyes widened and tried to discern the situation in the cave behind the gap.
Suddenly, she felt that the water, which had always kept her body swaying from side to side, seemed to change its direction all at once.
The sudden push on her back made her immediately alert.
I was just about to turn around to take a look, but I heard someone shouting overhead: "Azhu, climb the reef, quickly!" ”
It was Yan Siqi's voice.
Before Zheng Haizhu could fully react, there was a "poof" sound behind him, and in the center of the snow-white waves that were scattered in all directions, was the tall and burly figure.
Yan Siqi jumped down.
Zheng Haizhu's face was covered with seawater, and her vision was blurred for a moment, but at the same time, the lower half of her body immersed in the seawater was clearly swept by something, causing her to suddenly get out of her hands and be completely knocked into the sea from the stone gate.
The rhythm of treading water was interrupted, and she sank rapidly, but the swimmer, with her own muscle memory, had her hands moving instinctively after a few breaths.
As she slid to the surface, she saw a creepy scene: behind a curtain of bubbles and tiny seaweed, a huge spindle-shaped gray shadow approached like a slowed torpedo.
Shark!
There was a sharp sense of fear like a cone thorn, and when Zheng Haizhu came out of the water to breathe oxygen, he was momentarily stunned.
However, soon, in front of her, Yan Siqi's broad back appeared.
"Don't be afraid, climb back up the reef!"
Yan Siqi issued a short but clear command for the second time, but he didn't have time to reply, and directly raised the blade in his hand.
Zheng Haizhu's mind was still frozen, but the only remaining reaction ability in her brain made her turn around and paddle hard after hearing Yan Siqi's shouting.
People are like a god in the escape, Zheng Haizhu swam back, kicked his legs and tread water, and his left hand picked up a higher rock wall than the small reef that he had just used to explore the cave, she had never learned rock climbing, and she used her biceps and gluteus maximus muscles to exert force without a teacher, between a struggle and a lift, her right leg went up, and her heel hooked the hole of the rock, "Ah" with a loud roar, and finally let the whole body jump out of the sea like a wall and fall on the reef.
She clutched the cold stone in her hands, gasping for air, too frightened and sudden to collapse, she couldn't move anymore.
She could only lie on the surface of the stone like a toad, looking back at the sea.
In the blue water, it was already like a paintbrush washing ink, and there were a few clouds of crimson.
Yan Siqi's half-body was still standing prominently upright on the water, and the sharp knife in his hand shone with a dazzling cold light in the sunlight.
In front of him was the outline of a shark surrounded by a ball of blood, and soon, the outline blurred and became clear, the water was noisy, and the shark, which was furious, used its strong back neck muscles to exert force, raised its head violently, and its jawbones opened to the extreme, and Bai Sensen's sharp teeth were as dazzling as the blade, and bit Yan Siqi's head.
Yan Siqi's body was not chaotic at all, facing the bloody mouth, he raised the knife in his left hand, and when the fish's mouth was approaching, he suddenly rose sideways, and the blade stabbed directly into the shark's most sensitive organ, the nose.
At the same time as the tip of the knife pierced in, Yan Siqi's right hand accurately inserted into the shark's left cheek.
