Don't pretend, anchor, I've seen you touch the golden talisman!

Chapter 247 The Underwater Culvert

Qian Sheng and Bai Lu quickly booked their air tickets, and even made all arrangements for ground transportation in Zhongzhou.

The masters in charge will arrange related matters today.

Tonight, the local bus drove to the mountain gate, took them directly to the airport, and flew directly to Zhongzhou overnight.

Counting back and forth is a total of three days.

These three days are still crucial to them.

The Southern faction failed to solve the mystery of the "Hidden Dragon's Cave" and was still competing with the ship bosses over at Meishan.

According to what Fifth Brother said before, Mr. Chen made a big deal and refused to ship for three days.

Today, they may have finally rented a boat and were able to go to the river to find clues.

In Wang Qiang's words, it is almost one version behind them.

The "time, place, and people" that had been occupied at the beginning were all delayed by them, and there was nothing left.

The fifth brother helped them take care of everything. After eating their fast meal in the temple that day, they all went to the tent to recharge their batteries.

Working underwater is not as good as working on land, and the whole process is consumed, so conserving physical energy is the key.

When the mountain gate is closed tonight, they should go into the water to work.

In order not to be conspicuous, at night, all the camping tents were put away, put back in the car, and parked.

Everything was ready, this time it was still the old rule, Lin Yi and Bai Lu took the lead, after getting into the water, they found out what happened, and then greeted Wang Qiang and the others above.

And as a witness, Fifth Brother will also have to go into the water with them.

Qian Sheng is ill and will not participate in underwater operations for the time being.

As the only docking person on the ground, provide them with assistance at any time, so as not to be like the last time, when they are trapped, they are not working every day.

After nightfall, the mountain gate was closed tightly, and the whole Pujing Temple was extremely quiet.

The stone temple posted a notice that the whole temple would go out for three days, leaving only a few monks to stay behind. During these three days, the door will be closed to thank the guests, and the pilgrims will not be entertained.

Most of the temples have wooden structures, and the Buddhist halls are most afraid of catching fire, so these monks do not go back to their meditation rooms to rest at night, and each guard a Buddhist hall.

The status of the fifth elder brother is different now, and he can lead Lin Yi and the others in the temple without hindrance.

Fifth Brother had already figured out the place clearly, and also planned out a route for them to escape. At night, when people were not paying attention, he slipped into the backyard directly, avoiding the cameras.

Still in that ancient well, after a day of precipitation, the water level has dropped a lot.

Lin Yi and Bai Lu had already changed into their diving suits and used the well platform to lower the rope down.

"Safety first, if there is any situation that we cannot handle, just give us a signal."

"That's right, if there are any things or objects that you are not sure about, just use the camera to take pictures. If you are in danger, don't smash to death. Keep your strength. Let's go down and clean them up together."

Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng asked repeatedly, Lin Yi and Bai Lu nodded respectively, and got down from the mouth of the well one after another.

Although the equipment they wore had the effect of heat preservation, the biting well water made them feel the power of nature all at once.

Although the mouth of the well is not big, it goes down about three meters, and the bottom suddenly opens up, like a trumpet turned upside down.

"Fifth brother, is this how you dig wells here?"

Wang Qiang held the monitor and could see Lin Yi and the others' underwater situation through the screen above.

Fifth Brother leaned over to take a look, then curled his lips.

"Tsk, the wells we dig there are all straight up and down. How could we dig such a big hole? I'm afraid I didn't want to dig a fish pond, but I changed the well later."

These words made both Qian Sheng and Wang Qiang amused.

Traces of digging can be clearly seen around the wide water area underground. These traces are very irregular and do not look like they were completed by modern machinery and craftsmanship.

"Brother Lin, why did they dig such a large reservoir at the bottom of the well?"

"It's hard to say what the function of this water storage building is. If it really leads directly to Zhang Xianzhong's mausoleum, according to our Feng Shui theory, it is auspicious to see water in a bright hall, which creates a water force.

Don't worry about this for now, let's look for a way out. "

Bai Lu made an OK gesture, and the two split up and started searching.

In terms of water quality, Bai Lu is better, and the girl is delicate and will not let go of any clues.

She dived into the water on the other side, and after a small half circle, she had already found a very hidden hole.

Lin Yi immediately sped up and swam over to meet her.

This hole is not an open hole, it is hidden more than one meter below the water level.

The upper, lower, left, and right sides are all piled up with blue bricks, and the gaps are filled in with stones of various sizes.

After being immersed in the water for many years, it almost blends into the surrounding rock walls.

In addition, the visibility underwater was not high to begin with, so Lin Yi might have swam directly over.

"Go, go in and see!"

Lin Yi took out an underwater impact hammer from behind. This is a kind of crushing equipment used underwater. When a diver is stuck in a crevice of stones, many equipment cannot exert their power due to the influence of underwater resistance.

The tail of this impact hammer is filled with some explosives. When the button is pressed, the hammer head on the top releases a powerful impact instantly, which is amazingly powerful.

This thing was obtained from Mao Zi at a high price through Qian Sheng's connections, and it was a serious military product.

Lin Yi turned on the switch, put the tail on the fixed belt around his waist, puffed out his cheeks, and took a deep breath.

Then a muffled sound of "bang" was heard.

The strong recoil pushed him far away, and the huge shock wave underwater turned into huge ripples and surfaced.

Waves of smoke and dust floated at the entrance of the cave. The solid brick wall still failed to withstand the impact of high technology and collapsed instantly.

Lin Yi and Bai Lu stayed away from the dust area. After the underwater dust dissipated, they approached it again, and a dark hole appeared in front of them.

"Brother Lin, look at the entrance of this cave. Does it look like the "sewer" we went down to the day before yesterday?"

Lin Yi nodded quickly.

The surrounding bricks failed to maintain their original shape under the strong impact, but the outline of the original octagonal opening could still be vaguely judged.

Could it be that this passage is connected to the passage below the Minjiang River?
Wang Qiang also had the same thought as Lin Yi at the moment.

"Damn it, isn't this hole the same as the one Lao Lin and the others drilled last time? They can't be connected, right?"

"Brother Qiang, what you said is a bit outrageous. This is Qingfeng Mountain, and that is Minjiang River. How much work is required for such a long distance? It's almost time to catch up with the subway builders. The 'Eight Kings' must have this ability. How about dying in Phoenix Mountain?"

"That's right."

Lin Yi put away the impact hammer, turned on the headlights, and followed Bai Lu into the tunnel.

After swimming for a short time, it was obvious that the water level around him was continuously dropping. As soon as Lin Yi raised his hand, Bai Lu behind him immediately stopped.

The headlights of the two turned on together, and found that there were several layers of bluestone steps in front of them, each step was more than 30 centimeters high.

The bottom of the steps is still submerged in water, and the upper floors are above the water level, and it is not known where it leads.
