Chapter Fifty-Four: On the Shores of Lake Naga
The next morning, the heavy snow that had fallen all night finally stopped, and the three figures were speeding towards a lake in front of them at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to find. On the other side of the lake, a convoy was also heading towards the lake, and in the first big truck of the convoy, several young people were wiping the guns in their hands while listening to an old professor explain something. Seeing that these young men are male and female, and their bodies are not strong, I don't know what is going on here.
Lake Naga is in a mountain col, the whole is turquoise and transparent, and the bottom is deep, but it is strange that no matter how cold the weather is, this lake does not form a layer of ice. The three of Yuntian who rushed to the shore of the lake carefully explored the entire lake, just now Russell used the Void Eye to explore the lake, and found that the entire big lake was shrouded in a layer of phantom array, in fact, after breaking this layer of phantom array, Naga Lake was not as small as a pond. The real Naga Lake is surrounded by sharp stone knives and covered with the carcasses of various animals and people. This also explains why herders are fine grazing in the surrounding area, but they die mysteriously as soon as they get close to Lake Naga. Such a big phantom array has never been encountered in Shui Yuetian, could it be said that the monks who arranged here are even more profound than the ruthless Taoist cultivator of Shui Yuetian? Thinking of the three people of Yuntian here, they are happy and afraid, happy that Shui Yuetian and his party, the three of them have their own gains, let alone here; what I am afraid of is that so many people in Shui Yuetian are lost in it, and even the three of them can hardly get out, let alone here!
The three of them had seen almost all over the lakeside and the surroundings, and there was nothing suspicious except for this huge phantom array. And although Russell can detect this phantom array, but there is no way to break the array, Russell's Void Eye has not yet been cultivated to that extent, and the three of Yuntian alone can't break this phantom array. There was no way, everyone could only prepare to go home first, who would have thought that the three of them had just walked out and were not a hundred meters away, and the previous convoy was driving towards the clouds from a distance and stopped on the edge of the lake. Several young men and women got out of the car, supporting an old professor who was over the age of six, and the group observed the Naga Lake from the edge of the lake. With observation, along with also pointing, not like ordinary tourists.
One of the men saw the three of them in the distance: "Fellow, is this place Naga Lake?"
Yun Tian didn't speak, just nodded at them, although the three of them didn't know what the identities of these people were, but just by the guns and ammunition in the car and the supplies in the back cars, they could judge that these people were not ordinary people, and they were definitely not those wine bags and rice bags sent by the province and the government. This is also the reason why the three of them stopped, they wanted to see how these people would survey this Naga Lake.
After listening to the old professor's analysis, the young people took out the equipment from the cart behind them, with small survey machines and laser artillery, as well as diving equipment and other various machinery, and the preparations were very comprehensive. The young men changed into their diving gear, packed up their weapons and equipment, and prepared to dive into the lake to find out. Three of the men and one woman were the first to dive into the lake, and it seemed to them that they were diving into Lake Naga, but in the eyes of the three of them, they were walking towards the stone knife formation. Sure enough, the first young man hung on the stone knife and died, and the other three saw their partner die mysteriously, and hurriedly swam back, but in Yuntian's view, they were already unable to live, and several young people and old professors on the land heard the cry for help, and they were busy pulling the rope in their hands, but the rope was so pulled, several people in the water rushed directly to the stone knife due to the inertia of rushing forward, and died. Only a young man still breathed a sigh of relief, and the medical staff with the team hurriedly stepped forward to treat him, but he couldn't save him, and the man said a few words in the old professor's ear, and he died directly.
The grieving old professor directly evacuated all the people back, and finally chose to set up camp next to Yuntian and a few people standing, waiting for follow-up reinforcements. A young man called the three of them to the big tent, and the old professor inside still had a sad face, and there were four young people, two men and two women, sitting next to him, who were also saddened by the mysterious death of their partner.
Seeing Yuntian and the three of them coming in, the old professor wiped the sadness on his face and replaced it with a plain face, and then he spoke: "The three young people shouldn't be local villagers, don't you know what to do here?"
This old professor is not a simple person, just when Yun Tian wanted to step forward and make up a reason, Hui Gen next to him grabbed Yun Tian with one hand: "The three of us are indeed not locals, and we also heard that this place is more magical when we pass by here occasionally, so we came here for some sightseeing." ”
"Sightseeing? You three look introverted and don't be surprised, you should have other identities, right?"
"Do you seem to have nothing to do with the old professor?"
When the young people next to them heard that Huigen was so disrespectful to the old professor, they all stood up and drew their weapons and prepared to take down the three of Yuntian, but they all asked the old professor to wave his hand and stop them. "It's not a big deal, but three young people, although I don't know if you are explorers or tomb robbers, but the courage to come to this place is enough to show that you definitely have enough ability. I might as well tell you that we are a department of the state that deals with special situations, and this time we are here to figure out the mystery of Lake Naga. ”
"Professor!"
"It's okay to tell them," the professor waved his hand again, "The reason why I have made it so clear to you is that I hope you can help us." ”
"I'm afraid we won't be able to help you, the talents collected by the state from all over the country are all lost here, how can we help you a few wilderness villagers!"
"No, no, we use scientific subjective methods, but many times not science can explain everything, and you have your method, although it may not be scientific, but it is effective enough, we cooperate with the civil forces not once or twice, but every time those capable people in the private sector will open our eyes. ”
Just when the old professor was still arguing with the three of Yuntian, a young man on duty came in with a gun, first made a "report" and then reported the situation, it turned out to be the province, and the exploration team organized by the city also came to the lake, the old professor and the three of Yuntian came out of the tent together, looking at these explorers from the province and the city. I saw that the members of the investigation team from the province and the city were all teaching and research personnel and scholars, and among them there were two or three big-bellied officials. It's okay for these people to do research, but if they want to do something in this Naga Lake, I'm afraid they won't know how they died. The old professor glanced at the three of Yun Tian, and did not greet the people in the province and the city, but asked the three of Yun Tian, "Do you three young people think that these people come here to help?"
"Help, if they don't leave, they're going to die miserably here. ”
After listening to Huigen's words, the old professor who raised his eyebrows thought for a while, and then asked a young man next to him to drive back all the people from the province and the city, and then turned around and invited Yuntian and the three of them to re-enter the tent. On the other hand, this group of people from the province and the city are exchanging things loudly, and some of them are even standing by the lake to take pictures, completely treating this place as a tourist attraction. The young man came and told them to get out of here. They even had someone come up and ask the young man loudly why, until the young man took out a document from his bosom, they closed their mouths and obediently returned to the car, but no one was willing to let them leave here like this. In the end, under the persuasion of many people, the two leaders of the province and city went to find the old professor, and finally under the compromise of the old professor, they agreed to set up camp on the side, but they were only allowed to watch and were not allowed to participate in any activities.
After dealing with the gang of people in the province and city, the old professor consulted the three of Yuntian again: "I don't know why my friend said just now that if they don't leave, they will all die here?"
"I'm not just talking about them, I'm also saying to you, if you don't go, if you don't go and you have to explore this Naga Lake, you will all die here. Isn't it tragic enough that the first few young people died?"
"I'm also curious that the young people in front of me got into the water and the feedback they gave me was that it didn't look like they were in the water at all, but like they were in a trap, and they didn't know what hurt them when they got hurt. It's just that there's nothing around, but all of a sudden, your arm or stomach gets scratched. Finally, the young man also said to me, let's get out of here. ”
"Then listen to them, and get out of this place, this is not a place where you ,,,,,, ordinary people can stay. ”
"It seems that you are really not ordinary people, but we are just fighting in the front, and tomorrow there will be a group of people from our special department, which is said to be a group of special people. They can go up to the sky and into the earth, breathe clouds and mist, and they are very capable, and they should be able to break through the mystery of this place. ”
"Cultivator?"
"What? You've heard of it, it's a top state secret, how do you know about them? ”
"We had the good fortune to visit a monk during our previous expedition, and we learned of their existence. ”
"Really?" the old professor looked suspicious, but he didn't dare to doubt that there would be three cultivators in front of him, and he didn't believe that there would be such a young cultivator, because cultivators were rare and difficult for ordinary people to find, so he could only believe the excuse they said.
"Old professor, the cooperation you said before, let's think about it and give you an answer tomorrow. However, I still kindly reminded the old professor that no one should be allowed to go to the shores of Lake Naga or the people in the province or city until the monks arrived. Otherwise, no one would dare to save them!" After speaking, the three of Yuntian got out of the tent and went to live in a small tent specially built for the three of them next to it.
