"Let's not waste time. Let's go forward and see what else is painted in front." Andrew is a very decisive person. After he saw that the murals were damaged, he did not stop too much and just browsed briefly.
After a while, he urged everyone to move forward.
Zhang Jisheng, Xiangyu and the others saw Andrew swimming forward and followed him, but I still stood in front of the mural, staring at the graffiti drawn by my father, thinking in my mind: I wonder where my parents are now, Chen Mo and my brother
Are they okay?
"Brother Zhou, what are you doing? Come on and leave." Lao Li, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly stopped beside me and said to me.
"Well, let's go." I reluctantly took another look at the graffiti on the inner wall of the tunnel, and then said.
We walked forward less than five meters, and a bright white mist appeared in front of the tunnel. It felt like we had reached the end of the tunnel.
"How can there be light in the depths of Poyang Lake?" Xiangyu was the first to ask.
"Could it be that we are not the only expedition team at the bottom of this lake?" Zhang Jisheng said.
I immediately thought of Chen Mo and his brother. Zhang Jisheng said that they were missing in the waters of Laoye Temple, so one of his most important tasks during this trip was to find them at the bottom of the lake. Could this light be the lighting equipment they were carrying?
Sent out.
When I think about meeting my brothers, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel uneasy.
Although from the time my grandma told me that she had a brother, I had already imagined the scene of meeting countless times and prepared some words in advance. After all, he left Zhou Zhou when he was only three months old because of me.
Home, away from relatives, I don't know if I grew up in a warm environment.
Thinking of this, I was already a little hesitant, fearing that someone exactly like me would suddenly pop out in that light. I was really not ready yet.
"It's really weird. Let's go over and have a look." Andrew said, about to swim forward.
But Xiangyu grabbed him and said, "Professor, I wonder if there is any danger ahead."
"Jade, there are unknown dangers everywhere at the bottom of Poyang Lake. The so-called dangers are actually people's psychological fear of the uncertain future. It's okay. Once we have passed it, looking back, it was just an experience.
That's all." If you look at Andrew as a professor alone, then he really has nothing to say about Xiangyu and always acts as a good teacher and helpful friend.
After the foreigner finished speaking, he swam forward without any intention of waiting for us.
However, after he disappeared into the light, there was no sound.
"Oops, something happened." Lao Li was the first to react, "You guys stay here, I'll go see what happened."
"No, you are still injured. Let me go over and take a look. You are here to take care of Xiangyu." I pulled Lao Li back and swam forward.
But how could Lao Li let me take the risk alone? The two of us rushed into the mist of light almost at the same time.
I felt as if the buoyancy of the water suddenly disappeared, and gravity kept pulling me downwards. After a loud "bang", I fell into a piece of light.
"Oh my god, have I really traveled through time and space?"
I was still struggling in the water when I heard Andrew's exaggerated voice. At that time, I was still thinking in my mind, was Andrew having a convulsion again?
But when I surfaced on my own, my reaction might be even greater than Andrew’s——
In front of me is an ancient enclosure, but it is slightly different from the traditional Hakka enclosure. This is a pyramid-shaped enclosure with very high floors. I don’t know how many floors there are. The top is hollow.
A white mist filled the air.
Could it be that the light mist we just saw is this mist?
The enclosed building is not dark, but is filled with dark light. It feels like a clear day before a storm is about to come, the sun's rays are covered by dark clouds, and the light that comes out is black.
There were many huge water tanks lined up in the open space in the middle of the building, and I happened to fall into one of them. Fortunately, the water in the water tank was carrying me, otherwise I would have fallen from an unknown height.
If you die on the spot, you will be seriously injured.
Before I had time to crawl out of the water tank, there were two more loud bangs, and it was Xiangyu and Zhang Jisheng who fell. And they fell into a water tank each accurately.
I couldn't help but quietly breathed a sigh of relief, at least I wouldn't be hurt.
Andrew had already taken off all his diving equipment, leaving only the diving suit on him. He walked up to me and asked with concern: "Zhou, do you need help?"
Maybe they saw me staying in the water tank and thought I was injured.
No wonder he thought so. From the moment I got out of the water tank, I was shocked by the scene in front of me. I entered a state of selflessness, lying on the edge of the water tank with my eyes like that.
He stared straight at the cloud of water vapor above the building.
"No, no, you go and see Xiangyu." I reacted immediately and crawled out while grabbing the edge of the water tank.
I took off my breathing mask, and when I took my first breath of air in the enclosed building, I felt that the smell was very familiar, and I didn't know where I had smelled it.
Soon, the teammates all came out of the water tank, and then each took off their own diving equipment.
However, when Lao Li's breathing mask was taken off, I was shocked. His face was covered with blood. The blood should have flowed from his nostrils, and it was still flowing.
"Brother Li, why didn't you say you were injured?" Xiangyu hurriedly helped Li Zhuochen sit down in an open space in front of the building and took out gauze to stop the bleeding.
"Li Zhuochen, why didn't you tell me that you were so seriously injured? I just asked you to go back to the shore first on the altar, but you didn't go. What on earth do you want to do?" I saw that Lao Li was still ticking.
The nosebleed was flowing down, and he complained angrily and anxiously.
"This little injury is nothing to worry about," Lao Li actually smiled, picked up the gauze in Xiangyu's hand, wiped the blood around his mouth, chin and even the neck randomly, and then took out a bottle of unknown
I took one pill of some kind of medicine and drank a few mouthfuls of hot water.
"Let's take a break first. We don't know if it's a blessing or a curse that we fell in this place. Let's take this time to observe the surroundings. We will know that we know ourselves and the enemy, so that we can fight without danger." Zhang Jisheng said.
"What Zhang said makes sense. Let's see what kind of place this is first." Andrew said, already starting to walk around the large water tanks.
"This seems a bit like an enclosure, but the Hakka enclosure is in the shape of a circle, but this building is square." Xiangyu also stood up, glanced around and said.
After confirming that Lao Li was fine for the time being, I stood up and joined the ranks of observers.
This enclosure is about the size of two main stadiums, with a row of houses on each side. The open space in the middle of the enclosure is a circle surrounded by large water tanks. If you can stand on the top of the building and look down,
It should look a lot like briquettes.
"Zhou, have you noticed that the design of this building is in line with what you Chinese call a round sky and a round place? However, it seems to be the other way around. The sky is square and the earth is round. If the water tank on the ground is regarded as the earth,
, if you think the white mist above is the sky." Andrew's steps were very big, and he had walked half a circle around the building in a short while, and now he was standing not far to my diagonal right hand side with his hands on his hips.
said.
"Jisheng, can your door be opened?" I heard Xiangyu asking Zhang Jisheng who was pushing the door open.
Zhang Jisheng shook his head, and then pushed the next door in a clockwise direction, but still couldn't push it open.
"If my estimate is correct, all the doors here are locked from the inside." Zhang Jisheng pushed a few more doors and then said.
Hearing this sentence, all of us were stunned in place. All the rooms in this ancient walled building of unknown age were locked from the inside. Is it possible that there is still someone in this room?
Thinking of this, looking at the ancient wooden doors that were vaguely visible in the darkness, I couldn't help but feel a chill on my back.
