Chapter 45: The Abyss of the Sea, The Belly of the Whale
With the return of the ruins of the water level of the decline in the distance of a submerged ruins of the ancient city exposed to the water, the city of the mountains, thousands of years does not seem to be completely destroyed, far away from the past, the general pattern is still preserved, after the city is a strip of yellow in the red smoke floating in the sea horizon, Shirley Yang and I watched for a long time on the wreckage of the stone columns, feel that this subterranean sea bizarre and bizarre, the road ahead of us The way forward is hard to tell.
I thought that the eye of the sea is sucked into the ruins of the wreckage of the building on the surface of the sea, there will never be an entire ancient city are trapped, unless it is built here, then casually said to Shirley Yang: “Hate the sky ancient city in the eye of the sea under the side of how? This place is really hidden, if there are no traitors leading the way, maybe even the ghosts can’t find it.”
Shirley Yang eyebrows slightly knit, looking at the ancient city on the surface of the sea seems to be pondering: “When I was a child, I listened to an old sea captain told a giant whale swallowed the city’s legend, since then the people in the ancient city live in the belly of the whale inside, but you look at the return to the ruins of the terrain, it is like a whale’s belly, the world of the creation of the strange, it is really difficult to think about, the ancient books contained in the return to the virtual world, it is to see the sea elephant with the wind of the yin Gathering dispersion, like a boat in the whale burial sea, the rudder lost lost, the water color is confused, do not know what to do, this description is not completely accurate, but the scene, really like being in the chaos of the sea of the underworld, but also more or less with the ancient geography scholars said some of the same.”
Listen to Shirley Yang said, I realized that the terrain here, indeed, as in the belly of the giant whale, and the sea that piece of rubble inside, there may be ancient candles turtle divination secrets, I momentarily forgot that the ship has been damaged, trapped in the sea in the situation, but would like to go over to explore in the end, but my heart also vaguely know that do so very out of place, the stratum on the top of the head of the number of unevenly sized The eye of the sea, the high heat contained in the Yin fire, so that these holes in the seabed to produce a violent rotation of the hot wind, as if the geothermal gush, blocking the seawater down, but the condensation of the sea air once the climate, the sea cave will again a large number of seawater into the following ruins, we can not judge how long this phenomenon interval, perhaps a day or two, perhaps a month or two, in short, the sea cave is like a time bomb hanging in the sky! In short, the sea cave is like a time bomb hanging in the sky, once the seawater leaks down, then we will be “people or fish ao”, the immediate task is to find a relatively safe area to rest a little, and then consider the next step of action.
Suddenly a clamor on the boat will interrupt my thoughts, fat man and Uncle Ming and others also just saw the return of the ruins of the spectacle on the sea, dumbfounded for a moment, Uncle Ming said that the backpack containing the pearl, is the life of the group, how can you let the fat man this number do not know the importance of the high and low of the rough people to take it? Said to reach back to personally take care of, fat man raised his arm, gesture to whip uncle Ming, scared uncle Ming did not dare to speak again, fat man see himself so prestigious, can not help but be proud of it, a big grin and hand carry the backpack, turn to command the Gu Cai and Duo Ling, lifting up the injured captain Ruan Hei, ready to abandon the ship’s lifeboat.
At this time due to the return of the ruins of the water gradually receding, the hull of the badly damaged Trident leakage, stranded on a gray boulder relief, a moment without the worry of the bottom of the water, but the hull of the ship to the side tilted to the ship’s crowd of people on board the action of the many inconveniences, Gu Cai and Duo Ling two people will be Ruan Hei under the ship on the ruins of the stone slabs, and then in collaboration with the Uncle Minh went to drag the rubber life raft into the water, Fatty was a trip to the emergency equipment of all kinds of to the boat.
In carrying a group of water lungs, Fatty just landed on the slab, but the stone wall in the seawater immersed for a long time, covered with a number of reef creatures and reef-loving creatures, slippery tight, he did not step on the foot, he immediately fell on his back, sat on his shoulders backpack cover was broken stone citron scraped open, which is loaded with a few beads downstream slipped in the water, brightly shaking a few bright light is very eye-catching, Fatty hurriedly got up to go down to the water to Pick up.
The ruins in the water collapsed and piled up irregularly, boulders and bronze statues as well as shipwrecks formed in the gap, like countless gullies crisscrossing, the fat man looked at the nearby water surface no signs of sharks swimming, they went down to the waist-deep water, to touch the nanzhu fell on a stone, nanzhu light illuminate a hundred paces, bright can be extinguished lamps, fell in the shallow water is not difficult to look for, but I see clearly in the distance on the stone columns, see the fat man just picked up the beads, his More than ten meters in front of the place will be splashing and tumbling, revealing a dark black fish back of the size of the eight fairy table, the fish spine upside down like a sword, rushed to the fat man.
I don’t know what kind of evil fish appeared in the water, just hurriedly shouted at Fatty to be careful, there is something in the water, on the boat Gu Guai and Duo Ling and other people also saw at the same time, have shouted: “Sea monster! Sea monster!” Copy up the fishing gun to the surface of the water a burst of saving shot, fishing arrows fall, the underwater fish thick dense skin scales can not play the slightest role, just slightly will rise up the potential to block a block, the fat man saw the situation is not good, holding the Nanzhu even rolled and crawled from the water to leap back to the ruins behind them.
The surface of the water dark fish ridge swim to the near has been half a step too late, suddenly sank to the bottom of the water, disappeared, we see the fat man out of danger, are relieved, the fat man touched his own ass is still there, to the danger they just faced also do not think that, smooth hand Nanzhu stuffed back into the backpack, he this time to learn a good boy, will be backpack on the clasp rope into a dead end.
Shirley Yang used her hands to gather her voice, reminding the people on the boat not to let their guard down, then turned back to ask me, “Old Hu, did you just look at what the sea monster in the clear water was?”
I saw her look grave, then dare not nonsense, just a little far away, the evil fish and only reveal a black piece of back, really can not distinguish it is which kind of beast in the sea, but look at it that size, perhaps not a large shark? But the shark’s spine and fins would be so wide?
Shirley Yang said: “Ice sea there is a kind of orca, very fierce and cruel, not only can hunt underwater to kill dynamic dolphins, but also from the bottom of the sea to break through the ice, devouring people on the ice or seals, South China Sea there are species similar to the sword spine whale salamander, the body is smaller than the orca, broad-mouthed, black-backed sword spine, the belly is flat and round, but also good at out of the water to hurt people, you can directly from the sea out of the water to the boat sailors dragged into the water, and the boat sailors, and the boat sailors. Boat sailors dragged into the water, and the orca whale is the same name of the butcher in the sea, known as the killer whale salamander, I see just now that the spine of the evil fish, very much like a deep-water killer whale salamander, if the water exists in this kind of sea monster, we ride in the lifeboat will be too close to the water, very dangerous.”
We hurriedly told Fatty and Uncle Ming and others to stay away from the water as far as possible to prevent the whale salamander from coming out of the water to hurt people, Fatty and others had already lowered the lifeboat, and Ruan Hei, the injured captain of the boat, was also lifted to the side of the boat and was ready to abandon the boat and stirrup the boat after moving the things, and saw that there was a change in the situation, so they had to go to carry the injured person out of the way again, so that they wouldn’t be attacked by a sea monster that was too close to the water’s edge.
