42 Dripping water frightens the whole lake

This time, Xie Yixiang didn't understand at all, so she had to shake her head in confusion. The little boy sneered www.biquge.info walked to the pond-sized pool, then bent down, reached out and picked up a handful of water from the pool, and splashed it on the open space next to it.

With the little boy's careless action, there was a sudden sound of "coo-dong-dong" in the pool, and in the center of the pool, a large string of bubbles actually appeared, and then a sudden burst of water with a square radius of feet emerged. It took about a cup of tea for the scene to subside, and the whole pool finally calmed down again.

This scene made Xie Yixiang even more inexplicable, could it be that there was something strange about the water in this pool, otherwise how could it have a big reaction when it was touched lightly?

I only heard the little boy explain: "To put it simply, the pool in front of me is directly connected to the Poyang Lake outside through the underground waterway. Therefore, if there is less water in this pool, then the Poyang Lake outside will have to replenish the water, so as to form a backflow through the underground waterway, and finally ensure the relative stability of both sides; at the same time, along with the backflow of the water, in the waters corresponding to Poyang Lake, along with the fish, shrimp and grass, and even the boats on the lake, will also be sucked into the bottom of the lake by the current, and then the underground undercurrent will flow into the lake. ”

Hearing this explanation, Xie Yixiang's face couldn't help but change, and finally understood what this little boy meant. He clearly said that the reason why these cargo ships carrying military salaries appeared here was actually through the waterway connected at the bottom of this pool, and were directly "sucked" from the Poyang Lake into the stone cave called "Yellow Spring Land"?

This conclusion can be said to be far beyond the scope of Xie Yixiang's cognition, and in addition to being surprised, she still didn't understand the so-called "inhalation", and asked: "But...... But if the water in this pool is really connected to Poyang Lake...... Although I don't know anything about underground undercurrents, I do know that if the water in the two pools is connected to each other, then the water surface of the two pools should be the same height. The stone cave where you and I are now is clearly in the 'underworld' valley that is dozens of feet deep underground, and compared to the water surface of Poyang Lake outside, I am afraid that it is much lower. If the pond in front of you is connected to Poyang Lake, then ...... Then this place must have been flooded by the water that poured in. ”

Hearing Xie Yixiang's doubts, the little boy's face couldn't help but have a trace of panic, but he immediately regained his composure, and said coldly: "I didn't expect you to understand this truth, it's rare." Alas...... As everyone knows, this is actually the biggest hidden danger in my underworld...... If you don't mention it at this time, let me ask you, have you ever seen a waterfall on this basis?"

Xie Yixiang heard him mention some hidden dangers, but immediately turned away from the topic and asked himself about the waterfall. She immediately replied, "Naturally." ”

The little boy nodded and said, "Yes, just like the waterfall in the mountains, it is actually the water from the top of the mountain that flows to the foot of the mountain. If the water on the top of the mountain and the water at the foot of the mountain are considered to be two interconnected pools, then the water surface of these two pools is naturally not the same height. In the same way, although this pool is connected to Poyang Lake, due to the intricacies of the underground waterways, and even dozens of forks in the waterways connected to other water veins, the intricacies between them are not understandable, which causes the water level of the pool to be far lower than the surface of Poyang Lake outside. ”

After a pause, he added: "This is like the principle of a waterfall, although the water on the top of the mountain is constantly pouring down, it can never fill the water at the foot of the mountain, and make the water surface as high and low as the water on the top of the mountain, at best it can only maintain a relative balance." Therefore, you can also understand that Poyang Lake has been filling this pond with water, but because of the intricacies of the underground waterways, it has never been able to fill the pool, and can only maintain the dynamic balance in front of it. ”

Xie Yixiang listened to this remark, and at that moment she shook her head, sobered up in her mind, and said: "I roughly understand what you mean, do you mean that through the waterway under this pool, Poyang Lake has actually been filling this pool with water, but it has always been dissatisfied, and these cargo ships transporting military salaries first sank to the bottom of Poyang Lake due to the suction of the underground undercurrent, and then were sucked into the underground waterway, and finally appeared in this stone cave?"

The little boy nodded and said, "Yes, exactly." The underground waterway connected to Poyang Lake and this pool is the water area from Huolong Mountain to Chilong Town, which is also the so-called shipwreck of Poyang Lake. The world knows that strange shipwrecks often occur in this part of Poyang Lake, and the wreckage cannot be salvaged afterwards, because these ships did not actually sink to the bottom of the lake, but were sucked straight into the underground waterway, and all of them came to the current 'land of yellow springs'. ”

Then the little boy pointed to the pond-sized pool in front of him, and explained: "There is a way that moves the whole body with a single hair, and I can cause a lot of movement in Poyang Lake by just taking a handful of water out of the pool, and if I were to fill several buckets of water from this pool in one go, it would be enough to turn the Poyang Lake outside upside down, and I would immediately pour all the water into the connected underground waterways to maintain this relative balance." At the same time, the waters from Huolong Mountain to Chilong Town, along with all the boats on the lake, will also be sucked into the bottom of the lake and into the underground waterways. ”

Seeing that Xie Yixiang was still a little incomprehensible, he added: "To put it simply, if there is a drop of water missing from this pool in front of you, Poyang Lake will have to replenish a hundred buckets or more of water here." And almost all of these so-called hundred buckets of water flowed to other veins of water in the ground, and finally when they reached the pool, there was only one drop of water left. And in the whole process, due to the water pouring into the underground waterway, there will also be a miracle on Poyang Lake, which is the so-called strange shipwreck. ”

Xie Yixiang didn't finally understand what the little boy was saying until this moment. Although all this is exaggerated and far beyond my own understanding, it is indeed the only reasonable explanation in the current situation.

She combed all this through her mind, and immediately said: "So when the fleet of imperial court ships transporting military salaries sailed to the waters around Huolong Mountain and Chilong Town, you had already calculated the time, just suddenly reduce the water in this pool, and the entire fleet on the lake could be sucked into the bottom of the lake, and then pass through the underground waterway and appear in this stone cave. ”

The little boy only nodded slightly this time, and did not speak. Xie Yixiang thought for a moment and couldn't help asking: "The strange shipwreck in Poyang Lake, I have a general understanding now, but the fleet that transported military salaries that day was supposed to go up the Yangtze River and go straight to Chengtianfu in Huguang, but it is said that on the night when the fleet marched to Jiangzhou, it did not continue to go west, but turned south and sailed straight into Poyang Lake. Of course, this is also your doing?"

The little boy said lightly: "Of course, this is exactly what we are proud of. For this reason, we also danced and sacrificed, and invited the lake god at home to help, which is also known as the 'Chaos Beast' in the world. Perhaps you have already seen that our lake god is hidden in the depths of the green water in the valley, and after we dance and sacrifice, the lake god will dive into the underground undercurrent in the depths of the green water, first come to this 'land of yellow springs', and then dive into the pool in front of him to Poyang Lake. As for the envoys from the underworld we sent, after meeting with the lake god on Poyang Lake, they rushed together to the waters of Jiangzhou, where Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River meet, and then used the fog created by the lake god to lose the course of the entire fleet. ”

Hearing this, Xie Yixiang suddenly realized that the reason why the original fleet transporting military salaries suddenly turned around and sailed straight into Poyang Lake was that it was actually lost in the fog of the "Chaos Beast". Although she had never seen the true body of the "Chaos Beast", she had clearly seen the fog created by the "Chaos Beast" twice before in the hollow wilderness north of Chilong Town, and when she was looking at the pool of green water on the convex rock on the mountain wall not long ago, so she naturally knew the power of the fog.

However, if the fleet transporting military salaries loses its course in the fog created by the "Chaos Beasts", let me ask those who are at the helm of the ship, they must be veterans sailing on the Yangtze River, and they have no experience in driving ships on foggy days, and they can't even distinguish between the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake? Not to mention that if a boatman is confused, every boat in the entire fleet must have a compass to guide the direction, how can they lose their course at the same time and regard the southward sailing into Poyang Lake as heading west along the Yangtze River?
