Chen Erwa's electric car must have been modified, and its speed is almost as fast as a motorcycle.
Lin Yi watched helplessly as he shuttled across the motorway, passing all kinds of cars, and from time to time running the wrong way through a red light. It was as if he was in a deserted place.
It seemed that he was very anxious to prove to Lin Yi that he was not a liar.
"You don't have to ride so fast, safety first!"
Lin Yi comforted him from behind.
"I have to get you to the place before the water rises. I can't do it unless I ride faster."
Chen Erwa replied without looking back.
Lin Yi suddenly realized this.
The famous water conservancy project "Dujiangyan" is located on the upper reaches of the Minjiang River.
The water flow downstream is affected and will rise and fall.
Since the place Chen Erwa mentioned can be affected by the rise and fall of the river, even if it is not within the river, it must be close to the river.
As expected by Lin Yi, walking south along the river, a tidal flat appeared, covered with vast reed swamps.
This kind of place will be completely submerged after the water rises. When the water recedes, it will be a silt beach.
It looks quite strong, but when you step on it, the mud can reach your knees.
Therefore, this kind of place is rarely visited by people, and there are only some bird footprints.
"Go down from this point, go to the end and then go into the water, you can see a hole, like a tunnel, very deep, I don't know where it goes. This is where I picked up the money.
You can wait for the water to rise and swim in to have a look.
And the money you gave me, the old man told me not to take it, but to return it to you when I get back. "
After saying that, Chen Erwa got on her little electric donkey and disappeared into the night without looking back.
Lin Yi was left alone in a daze, and it took him a long time to recover.
He took out his phone and called Wang Qiang and the others, then sent the location.
Not long after, Wang Qiang and the three of them drove to the riverside.
"Damn it, I didn't expect this kid to actually have one hand left. He's so naughty and slippery, and he's so good at water. He's like a loach."
Wang Qiang was in a good mood now.
While helping Lin Yi put on the diving suit, he teased.
On the way here just now, they received a transfer from Chen Erwa, and all the 100,000 yuan was refunded exactly.
He finally got rid of his troubles.
"Why aren't you afraid that he will mess with us again this time?" Lin Yi asked back.
"What are you afraid of? We've got the money back, and we won't suffer any loss."
Lin Yi shook his head with a wry smile.
This operation followed the same old rules. Lin Yi and Bai Lu went into the water to explore the road, while Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng were on standby in the car.
I heard Chen Erwa's description just now. The underwater secret passage is quite long. Even with his water properties, he could not fully explore it. Lin Yi and Bai Lu simply put on professional full-coverage diving suits this time, and each also brought Have a spare gas bottle in case of an unexpected incident.
With everything ready, Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng drove the car to an inconspicuous location.
Not long after, the river surface began to rise, and soon it overflowed the tidal flat. Lin Yi and Bai Lu gestured to each other, and one after the other, they dived into the water under the cover of night.
Following the "section" of the tidal flat, we groped downward little by little. About seven or eight meters down, a huge depression appeared.
Under the reflection of the light, you can see that there is a hole at the very root of the depression.
The surrounding area is reinforced with stone strips and stones, resembling an octagon with a diameter of nearly two meters.
"It should be right here."
Lin Yi said, unsheathed the sword and placed it in his right hand, turned on the headlight, and got in first.
Bai Lu followed closely and swam in.
This passage winds and twists, there will be a big turn, and there will be an obvious rise every other section.
There are stones piled around. Each stone is shaped like a trapezoid, like a wedge. The heavier the external force squeezes, the tighter the structure.
It feels like walking through a horizontal well.
"No wonder Erwazi can't swim to the end. This passage is indeed a bit too far. Anyone with claustrophobia may suffocate when entering."
Bai Lu's voice came from Lin Yi's headphones.
As of now, they have been traveling in the passage for almost five minutes.
It didn't seem to take long, but the river flooded the entire channel, and for an unequipped diver like Erwazi, there was no room for him to breathe.
What's more, he still has to consider the return trip.
However, after swimming in, nothing suspicious was found.
There is no such thing as a coffin, let alone a boat coffin.
Where did the money from the King of the West come from?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi speeded up and swam toward the end of the man-made cave.
But when they walked forward for about two minutes, several forks suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Isn't this kid leading us into the city's drainage system?"
Bai Lu asked with some confusion.
Lin Yi stepped forward and carefully observed the surrounding situation.
Each cave entrance is made of piled stones. Judging from the traces of water erosion and the construction craftsmanship, it is definitely not a modern project.
"No, look, the blue bricks at the entrance of the cave have names engraved on them."
Lin Yi pointed at the green brick at the entrance of the cave and said.
Bai Lu came closer, observed carefully with a headlight, and then took out an underwater camera to take pictures and record them.
These things can only prove that this project was built by people in ancient times. As for its function, it is still unknown.
Maybe it's just like Bai Lu said, it's just an underground drainage project.
If this is the case, it seems that it can be explained by the discovery of a Western King reward coin from this intricate waterway.
After all, most of the Daxi Dynasty chose to be buried after death.
"Should we go in and take a look?" Bai Lu asked.
Lin Yi waved his hand.
"Let's forget it and withdraw!"
Just now, while Lin Yi was waiting for Wang Qiang and the others to come over, he observed the terrain and feng shui levels here.
It’s not a geomantic treasure at all, let alone an auspicious land.
Rather than wasting time here, it is better to go back and rest early and go straight to Qingcheng Mountain early tomorrow morning.
The two of them emerged from the underwater channel one after the other and made a signal with a flashlight. Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng drove the car to the shore and drove the two of them directly back to the hotel.
After going back and washing up, the four of them got together and had a small meeting to discuss it.
The biggest problem now is that they don't know what's happening on the Southern side, or what exactly do they want to find here?
"I wonder if there are any important signals or reminders left here. If you can't get them, it will be useless even if you go to Qingcheng Mountain?"
Qian Sheng analyzed.
"It's probably like this, but they have a picture in their hands, but we don't, so we can only stare and wait? How about we find Fifth Brother to do some work?"
Upon hearing Wang Qiang's bad idea, Lin Yi waved his hand.
"Brother Pao will send people to follow him just for the sake of fairness. If Nanpai and the others hadn't messed up the etiquette, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the bonus of this time difference. Although Fifth Brother is willing to help us, there is a limit. If we cross the limit, it will not end well. ”
"Then what should we do? Should we continue to waste time like this?"
"No wait, let's go to Qingcheng Mountain early tomorrow morning!"
