Abyss
Chapter 41 Nine Dragons Absorb Water
The next day, Linqian did the same thing, and got away in front of the lighthouse. In order to act more realistically, he even asked Jiang Xuanye to lie to the lighthouse together, saying that Jiang Xuanye had something to do with him, and he still couldn't go home to live. In the end, he didn't forget Kindly tell him to take care of himself.In fact, in order to save time, he didn't go to work at all, and it was really difficult to ask for leave, so he simply missed work, and came to Jiang Xuanye early in the morning before dawn to explain his "funeral affairs".
Jiang Xuanye was a little worried, "Can you go by yourself? How about I tell my dad and I'll go with you."
Lin Qian lit a cigarette and stood at the door and whispered to Jiang Xuanye, "You have to stay, this matter must not be let to a third person, especially Yang Cuo."
He has also thought a lot about these days, whether it is Lin Qiubai who has passed away and has no evidence of his death, or Yang Cuo who stabbed him secretly, all the actions of these people are closely centered around the "Kuroshio Project" back then.When he found those materials in the archive room, he didn't think there was any useful information, but now that he thought about it, the weather records inside seemed a bit too detailed.
As a meteorological survey ship, in terms of national power at that time, it was absolutely possible to forecast most of the weather conditions, but most of the weather conditions on the file were recorded after the day's log, that is, added later, which is very unreasonable .The only explanation is that the weather conditions at that time were very special and could not be observed well for some reason.In the end, the entire ship, except Lin Qiubai, all died in the shipwreck.
Regarding the surviving Lin Qiubai, the archives did not mention a word, but vaguely recorded as "all killed".At that time, there were not only Chinese scientists on board, but also some foreign scientists. Perhaps this was to protect Lin Qiubai, and of course, it may also be to cover up certain facts.
And in Lin Qiubai's notes, as well as in his limited conversations with himself, he repeatedly mentioned the old ruler Cthulhu, a terrifying god who lived on the seabed.Let’s make an assumption here, assuming that Lin Qiubai had seen the lighthouse back then, then everything would be solved easily.
"Give me one, you really..." Jiang Xuanye naturally took out the cigarette case from Linqian's pocket, flipped it open with his skillful thumb, brought one to his mouth, took one out to light it, and took a mouthful." Not bad, Nanjing."
Lin Qian said with a smile, "Take whatever the emperor likes, I still have it in my car."
"Pull it down, if Commander Jiang sees it, you have to share it with the people upstairs. You and I want a positioning device to track the snake spirit? Will you accidentally take a picture of a snake or something?"
"Get out." Lin Qian scolded.
"Look at your clean appearance. But how do you know that he will still appear there today?"
Lin Qian looked at his watch, extinguished the flue in his hand, "Come back and talk to you."
Linqian didn't drive, and it was too expensive to store at the train station, so he simply parked in Jiang's villa and took a taxi by himself.The early morning wind was a bit cool, blowing from the platform reminded Lei Linqian of when he was in college.Because it's not very far away, he doesn't take planes very often, most of the time he takes trains.But since graduating from college, it seems that I haven't sat down again.
For an hour or so on the way, I was not idle while diving, and checked some local information.The signal on the high-speed rail was not very good, and the progress of the inquiry was very slow, but Linqian still determined the destination at a small temple in Mengjin County.It is said that the temple is called Longma Negative Figure Temple, which has been built for more than 600 years.But he chose this destination not because of its historical value, but because of its location.
The journey was tiring, and Linqian only ate some light meals on board.He didn't want to eat too much, because the road ahead might not be easy, lest he vomit it out.Fortunately, since the arrival of the lighthouse, my physical condition has improved to a great extent, and I no longer faint and bleed from the seven orifices.
With the feeling of traveling, Lin Qian got off the train, but what greeted him was indeed haze and squalls.The weather in Luoyang is very bad, it can be regarded as extreme weather, but it is not unexpected.Linqian found a small shop at the station to have a drink and rest for a while. The long high-speed train made him uncomfortable, and he was also waiting for the reserved online car-hailing.
It was obviously less than four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was as dark as midnight.It was raining heavily, but there was no thunder, and it was even more depressing.Lin Qian felt a little more confident in his heart.
The online car-hailing driver called and said that the road was really difficult and he had to arrive later.Linqian was upset, but he still said it was fine, be careful on the road.I had already told him to go out early and not be late, but the driver still believed in his judgment, and he didn't take his words seriously when he saw the sky was clear, and it was unexpected that it was raining heavily, so he knew he was in a hurry.
It wasn't until just after six o'clock that the online car-hailing service arrived late.Lin Qian got into the car and didn't want to talk much.But the master may have been very enthusiastic because he came late and was afraid of embarrassment, asking about his age and hometown along the way.Lin Qian was also absent-minded, answering without saying a word.The accent in Henan is similar to that in Hebei, but there are indeed differences. Maybe the locals can hear it, but it's the same for those who are diving.
"It's raining so much today, why don't you go to Mengjin to visit relatives?"
"Ah."
"Where are you going to Mengjin? I'll see if it's convenient to send you there."
"Longma Negative Image Temple."
"Ah? Then you can't go there. The road leading there collapsed half a month ago. I don't know what happened."
"Can't go? Is there no other way?"
The driver thought for a while, and said, "Walking on the water, I just don't know that people can't make it through such a heavy rain."
Fortunately, I was lucky to be diving. When I arrived at the ferry, the last boat was about to depart.The boat owner was wearing this dark green raincoat, and without looking up, he beckoned people to get on the boat quickly.There is no waiting room and no ticket office here. It is probably a black boat without formalities.It's just that Linqian doesn't care so much now, as long as he can walk.Looking at the time, it's already past seven o'clock, if you don't go there, it will really be in vain.
Linqian was the last one to get on the boat. When I got on the boat, I heard something from the online car-hailing driver behind. The wind and rain were too heavy and I couldn't hear it clearly. Linqian guessed it was probably something like "I'm dying".
The boat owner didn't board the boat, so he turned around and drove away after collecting the money.There were only four people on board except for two old crew members. Apart from diving, there was also a couple. The man looked very social, with a little tattoo on his cuffs, and the woman looked very young, about eighteen or nineteen years old.There was also an old woman with a gloomy face, sitting on the side with her head bowed and not speaking.
The wind and rain were too strong, and it was the most dangerous part of the Yellow River. The boat was shaking in the waves.The boat was very quiet, as if everyone was holding their breath and waiting for the boat to dock.Lin Qian naturally didn't want to talk, such shaking made his stomach start to churn.But he wasn't worried, after all, he survived falling into the sea twice and enjoyed the reputation of "Haidilao".
When the boat reached the center of the river, it suddenly rose and fell, and the young girl was so frightened that she began to cry softly.The crew came in and asked everyone to help them.The old woman remained silent, but the young man finally broke out amidst the endless cries of his girlfriend.
"What the hell kind of weather is this? I made such a big wave!"
Hearing his words, the old crew member's face became even more ugly, and he hurriedly said, "You can't talk, you can't talk! Offending the Dragon King in the Yellow River will be fatal!"
The young man obviously didn't believe this, and wanted to open his mouth to curse something out of anger, but was interrupted by a loud noise outside the cabin.Everyone, including those on the submersible boat, looked out of the porthole together, only to see a column of water standing up on the surface of the water, reaching straight into the sky.Before everyone could react, two more poles were set up one after another, forming a three-legged situation.
The old sailor knelt down on the boat with a "plop", kowtowing and chanting "Dragon King calm down".
But such piety seems to be of no use. Immediately afterwards, a few more water jets were erected, and they went to check. Now there are a total of nine jets.This should be the legendary "Kowloon absorbs water".Seeing this, the old crew member fainted directly. The other crew member tried his best to calm down and control the direction, but judging by his expression, he probably couldn't last long.
Only then did the young man realize the seriousness of the problem, and he slumped on his seat. His little girlfriend had stopped crying a long time ago, her face turned ashen with fright, and she could do nothing but tremble.On the contrary, it was the old woman who looked the same from the beginning to the end, to the point where she looked like a human sculpture.
Of course Linqian knew that this was not caused by a dragon king, but a tornado on the surface of the water, which was called "dragon sucking water" by the common people, and it was not mysterious.It's just that such phenomena mostly occur in places with high temperature and high humidity, such as near the South China Sea, which is not very common in the north, especially such "nine dragons absorb water", which is even rarer.
But the diving at this time can basically be determined, and the lighthouse will definitely appear here.
No matter what happens when you are diving, you are usually very calm, because panic is useless.He thought about it for a while, and if there was an accident, if he had the ability, he should first save the person who was most likely to survive here, and that would be that young man from society.But adhering to the ladyfirst principle, he should save the girl first, and her boyfriend probably thinks so too.
Of course, this is all under the premise of being able to keep himself.
Before he could think about it clearly, the boat seemed to be suddenly yanked by a huge hand, changed direction, and then started to spin crazily.Lin Qian's heart sank, he knew that he had been swept near the water column.At the speed of rotation of the water column, the boat will be completely torn apart in less than half a minute.
He tried to move out of the cabin while spinning, closed his eyes, and began to pray.Like his father, he does not believe in gods and ghosts, but at this moment he has an object of prayer.
And the object of his prayers did not disappoint him.After a while, the lighthouse broke through the waves on the river, opened its dorsal fin, grabbed the side of the boat with both hands, and the veins in both arms burst out, and the boat was pushed away from the center of the vortex with lightning and flung, and it was thrown to the shore.At the same time, the moment the boat was released from his hands, he skimmed over the side of the boat, pulled Linqian into his arms, and brought him directly into the churning and roaring river.
The turbid river instantly cut off all sight and hearing on the water surface, and Lin Qian hid in the strong arms of the lighthouse, looking at his eyes filled with mountains and rivers.
