After taking off his diving suit, Xiang Huan sat alone in the front of the speedboat and wiped his hair. The breeze from the lake felt quite comfortable on his face.
Chengye stood on the other side of the speedboat, with his back to Xiang Huan, talking on the phone with Shen Beibei.
Xiang Huan couldn't hear the content of their call and didn't really want to know. She was still recalling the scenes of the ancient city ruins she saw while diving.
The excitement and excitement in my heart have not passed yet.
Chengye didn't talk on the phone for long. After five minutes, he hung up and turned around, looking at Xiang Huan who was still sitting on the other end of the speedboat.
Xiang Huan heard footsteps behind him and felt that he was coming. Without turning his head to confirm, he moved to the side to make room.
"Do you know what happened to the ruins you saw underwater?" Cheng Ye sat down next to Xiang Huan and asked her.
He scooped some out of the bucket of water Xiao Wu brought over and poured it over his head, then simply rinsed it off.
Xiang Huan wanted to help, but he refused with a smile.
"Aren't you going to answer?" Narino rushed to her hair without delay.
Seeing Cheng Ye's skillful movements, Xiang Huan wrinkled the tip of her nose, tilted her head to avoid the water droplets he threw out, and replied with a smile that she didn't know.
Narino didn't use a towel to dry his hair. The water droplets at the end of his hair shone with bright mottled spots under the refraction of the sun.
Xiang Huan looked at him in trance.
When Narino saw it, he twisted his lips and told the story of the town ruins under the lake.
He told Xiang Huan that the area under the lake turned out to be a thousand-year-old ancient town in Sava. It was said that most of the residents were the families of the officers and soldiers who guarded the imperial city here.
A few decades ago in modern times, a new reservoir was to be built in Sava. The town was within the inundation zone, and the residents were
They were sent away to live in other areas, and after the flooding, only the ruins under the lake remained.
"Tell me, is there someone..." Xiang Huan listened, and an idea suddenly came to his mind, but he didn't think it was good so he didn't say it out.
Narino answered for her, "You want to say that during the evacuation, there will be villagers who are unwilling to leave their homeland, and then they will live and die with this place."
Xiang Huan looked at him speechlessly, yes, that was what she wanted to say.
Chengye sat down, "Actually, when we were down there just now, I didn't say anything out of fear that you would be scared. When I held your hand and swam past an archway, a man was hanged there."
Xiang Huan subconsciously opened his mouth.
"The guide who took us into the water said that when we were first submerged, we could still see the man hanging when we dived. Later, the rope gradually became corroded and broke, and the human remains could not be found."
Xiang Huan felt chills running down his back.
Seeing that she was scared, Narino became more energetic.
"But it doesn't matter if the body is gone. The soul of the lonely ghost is still trapped in the ruins, waiting for the person he wants to wait for."
"Is this what the guide told you?" Xiang Huan asked, turning to look at the guide who was sitting with Xiao Wu, and wanted to go talk to him.
"This is true. The man who hanged himself was the guide's relative and a lover." After Narino said this, his face suddenly darkened.
"Is he waiting for the girl he likes?" Xiang Huan wanted to know the answer.
Narino turned his head and looked at the calm lake. The muscle lines on his neck were particularly clear and beautiful.
He replied to Xiang Huan, "The girl I love has actually given up on him a long time ago. He has drawn a prison for himself. Even if he drowns, he will stay."
Waiting for someone who can't turn back. "
Xiang Huan didn't expect that it would go in such a direction. After hearing this, he was speechless for a long time.
"So, Xiang Huan," Cheng Ye suddenly broke the silence, "After today, you have to live a good life for yourself and stop wasting time."
Xiang Huan had a lump in his throat, choked and coughed out tears.
Cheng Ye sat quietly and watched her in pain. Even Xiao Wu heard the sound and came over to help Xiang Huan pat his back, but he remained indifferent and did not move.
When the speedboat was speeding forward on the lake again, Xiang Huan looked at the empty lake with no other boats around, and his tears kept flowing silently.
I don't know if her sense of taste is abnormal, but the tears flowing into the corner of her mouth can't taste the salty taste at all.
Ten minutes later, the speedboat returned to the water where five or six fishing boats were scattered.
Xiang Huan looked at the human fireworks in front of him.
Thinking back to the underwater ruins and the unhappy love story in the ruins, I understood why Narino took her through such a journey.
