Chapter 212 The Mountain Road
In addition to Fatty and I, the rest of the people have never heard of the “fish formation”, we have been in the coastal waters of Fujian, there are many such legends, the freshwater lakes in the Mainland, but for some reason, the last two decades on the rare, “fish formation”, also known as the “wall of fish”, is a biologists have not yet been able to explain the supernatural behavior of fish. “Fish wall”, is a biologist has not been able to explain the supernatural fish behavior, the same species of fish in the water gathered together in large numbers, biting each other’s tails, heads and tails, a circle of the disk according to the circular array, regardless of size, all the fish are stacked tightly together, and its size sometimes reaches the range of several miles.
Fish in freshwater lakes form “fish array”, one is to prevent the capture of the ghost; two is to resist the attack of large underwater predators, because underwater from afar, “fish array” seems to be a slow swimming black giant monster, enough to scare off any natural enemies; there are also It is also possible that the fish were frightened by the sudden change in climate or environment and formed a formation to protect themselves.
We ate something by the river, so that we could have the energy to swim and plan how to pass through the “fish formation” behind the crystal wall, which was a very difficult thing to do.
Shirley Yang found a piece of paper, the fat man said the underwater situation painted on the top, “the door of disaster” underwater there is a seven or eight meters wide channel, the distance of about 20 meters long, out of the terrain for the trumpet shape, the front narrow back wide, tens of thousands of “white bearded scaly fish” in that trumpet mouth. “In that trumpet mouth formed a rolling barrel type” fish array “, blocking the way to the outside world underwater lakes, to where you can not pass,” White Bearded Fish “is a mountainous region of Karamir only exist in the water of the special fish, and its characteristics are large and scale-free, all over the body. Is a large body without scales, all green, only beard and mouth are snow white, so got such a name, the fat man said “disaster door” behind the “white-bearded fish”, large and small ranging, on average, are more than half a meter long a tail, the huge fish array flip-flopping There was no way to get past the huge fish formation, unless they were dispersed.
Shirley Yang said, “Although the white-bearded fish doesn’t hurt anyone, but the large population is a potential threat in itself, when we pass underwater, if we fall alone, we may be surrounded by the fish and lose contact with the rest of the team, we should try to break up the fish formation beforehand before we can pass through.”
I said to the crowd, “Since ancient times, if fishermen want to break the fish formation, they need to have a ghost marshal, but we are in the depths of the Kunlun Mountains, where can we find a ghost marshal? And even if there really is a Ghost Marshal that can be driven, I’m afraid that he won’t be able to deal with tens of thousands of white-bearded fish that are more than half a meter long.”
Uncle Ming and the others didn’t know what “Ghost Marshal” was and asked for details. I asked Fatty to tell them about it, and he said, “Do you know what a “Wu Gui” is? Not Chuan people on the black pig’s kind of name, in some fishing villages, fishermen are raising a cormorant called the large-billed waterfowl, can help dive into the water to catch fish, but have to tie its neck with a rope ahead of time, or else it catches the fish on their own Misi, this waterfowl commonly known as the “ghost”.
Where the “ghost” fishing place, in a lake or a river waters, no matter how many cormorants, there must be a head of the “ghost marshal”, the ghost marshal than the ordinary cormorant size out of two or three times the big mouth than a steel hook is also powerful, two eyes shine! Shining, look and eagle almost, sometimes fishermen boat to the lake fishing, but for several days even a piece of fish scales can not catch, that is to say that the fish underwater fish formation, this time all the fishermen, we must put together the money and effort to burn incense on the sacrificial offerings to the river god, and then put the “Ghost Shuaishu” into the water, no matter how thick the “fish formation”, and the “Ghost Shuaishu”, the “fish formation”. No matter how thick the “fish formation”, it can not hold it three rushes and two drills, will be disintegrated and collapsed.
But here the environment is blessed, the white-bearded fish produced by the large size, not the mainland lakes in the unusual fish can be compared to this fish in the water to swim up, the strength of the people can hit a head, I’m afraid that even if there is a “Ghost Marshal” can not be washed away here the fish array.
Through the fat man to the group of vernacular kung fu, I have made up my mind, since has arrived in front of the gate of the magic country, there is no reason not to go in and back out, there is no “ghost marshal”, but we have explosives, enough to blow away the fish, but from the underwater channel dive through, must be five people at a time to go through, because I look at this huge “The door of disaster, is not a one-piece molding, but with a few meters square iceberg crystal stone, artificially constructed, not only carved with a large number of graphic symbols, and there are many gaps between the stone, may be a large flow of water when the time to wash out, but also may be the construction of the time to intentionally flow down, in order to alleviate the impact of the current on the wall of the impact of the fish with explosives should not be The explosives used to blast the fish array can not be too little, too little to stun not so many white-bearded fish, but more explosives, the shockwave will certainly destroy part of the crystal wall, this huge wall is an ancient relic, may lead to the whole body, the “Gate of Disaster” collapsed.
Can not be accurately projected, but look at the structure of this wall, if the explosion once affected the “disaster door”, will produce a fluctuation effect, within two minutes, from the main wall of the collapsed stone blocks will be completely blocked the passageway, before about a minute and a half of time, it should be relatively safe, only to seize the fluctuation effect of the spread of the moment before, from the door to the door. This little bit of time before the spread of the fluctuation effect, through the door, and once past, do not want to return from the original way.
I told everyone about the possible dangers, especially for Uncle Ming to be psychologically prepared in advance, it’s not too late to go back if you regret it, but once you enter the door of disaster, there’s no turning back.
Uncle Ming hesitated for half a day, gritted his teeth and said he was willing to go with us, so we are fully equipped, down to the water, three oxygen cylinders, fat man himself with a, by it to blast the fish array, Shirley Yang and Ah Xiang share a, I and Uncle Ming with a, Uncle Ming half of his life on the sea boat, the water is skilled, underwater with an old fish like, although the water is mediocre, but Shirley Yang to take care of her, can definitely let a person rest assured. Although Ah Heung’s water skills are mediocre, with Shirley Yang taking care of her, one can definitely rest assured.
The river water at the bottom of the Karamir Mountains is very unique, clear and white, and there are very few algae plants underwater here, and the most is a kind of transparent shrimp that eats rockfish, which constitutes a unique underwater ecosystem, and when you go underwater and turn on the searchlight, you will only see the white light floating in all directions, and all of the rocks underwater are white.
A turquoise crystal wall has a nearly ten-meter wide channel, with the underwater searchlight to the channel in front of the light, the opposite side of the water appears very turbid, countless white-bearded fish after one of the front of the fish tail, they form a wall of fish infinite, spectacular, connecting the outside of the river blocked dead, the speed of the current does not seem to slow down, may be in the deeper underground, but also hides other branches of the water system.
I and Uncle Ming, Shirley Yang, A Xiang four people waiting for the time in the hole, fat man with explosives swim through the channel, its figure quickly disappeared in the murky water in front of the fish array, after a long time has not come back, perhaps underwater on the passage of time is prone to produce the illusion that every second seems to be a very long time, I raised the searchlight constantly to that side of the light, is from the anxieties of the opposite side of the water saw the lights flicker, fat man in a hurry and panic swim back. Fatty swam back in a hurry.
Fatty swim this way while gesturing, see his meaning is that the explosives are not too good to put, so the delay, will soon explode, this time Uncle Ming is also in the mouth of the passageway to look over there, I hurriedly pressed his head down, stretched out his arm, and pulled the fat man who was desperately swimming this way over.
Almost at the same time, the underwater shaking, as if the crystal wall followed the shake three shakes, a strong explosion shock wave, entrapped with broken fish spread around, we crouch at the bottom of the wall, through the diving goggles can see a strong red mist from the door of the disaster out of the door, who did not expect the power of the explosion is so strong, the fat man spread his fingers horizontally swinging: “Explosives probably put A little too much ……”
Because of time constraints, the shock wave just past, we will float the body to the upper side, want to rush through the channel as soon as possible, I put my head up, before I could see the situation in the channel, the diving goggles were hit, the bridge of the nose was almost broken, I hurriedly hid the body back to the wall, countless frightened white-bearded fish rushed over from the channel, these formed “fish formation” big fish, at that time, the white-bearded fish was not a big fish, it was not a big fish, but a big fish. These “fish formation” of large fish, at that time, the state of mind are very excited, in the words of biologists, they are in a kind of “no self” realm, this time to kill it, it does not know pain, so it is very difficult to outside interference and scattered, but the strong impact of the explosion, so that they suddenly woke up from the sleepwalking state of mind. over, and immediately collapsed, staring at the dull eyes of the fish, desperately scrambling.
A wave of fish seems to have no end, from the channel as a flood, seems to be never finished, I thought the fish will retreat in another direction, but completely unexpected, these fish have no sense of direction, there are still a large number of drilling into the channel of the door of disaster, it is expected that the crystal wall will be impacted, will occur within two minutes of the size of the collapse of the collapse, now the time has passed one and a half minutes, the fish will not be able to pass through, and then the fish will not be able to pass through, the time has passed one and a half minutes, the fish will not be able to pass through. Now a minute and a half has passed. If the fish don’t finish, we will lose the only chance to enter the “Wicked Lohai City”.
At this time from the channel gushing out of the white-bearded fish has been exhausted, we scramble to swim into the channel, here the river water was fish scales and fish meat stirred up a cloudy, in the water, want to vomit, and visibility is almost “zero”, good thing that the channel is straight, there is no turn, the length of the channel is also limited, contain a breath, and strive forward.
Body from time to time by the impact, there are a lot of white-bearded fish like a headless fly drilling, these big fish underwater power is very big, in the chaos of the inflatable backpack with Uncle Ming, was a half-meter-long big mackerel knocked off, Uncle Ming wants to swim back to catch the backpack, I and Fatty underwater tugging his legs, hard to drag him back, but this time to go back to find the equivalent of death, regardless of what is loaded inside, lost! No matter what is contained inside, lost, even if finished, people can live past is the most important.
Less than twenty meters long distance finally held up to the head, I was the last one from the channel drilled out, here the lake is very deep, the water flow of the water exchange is also very large, although there are still countless wrapped in the fish array of the innermost fish, has not yet had time to escape, but the underwater visibility improved a lot, this time, “the door of the disaster” on the glacier crystal stone began to gradually collapse, a few huge pieces of shattered stone, and the door of the disaster, the door of the disaster. At this time, the “disaster door” on the glacier crystal stone began to gradually collapse, a few huge pieces of debris has blocked the way.
I made a gesture, let the people take turns to use the oxygen cylinder to change the gas, and then swim at full speed to the top of the incline, however, the group just to act, they all froze coincidentally, only to see the last layer of the fish array has been dispersed, a body length of more than a dozen meters of the giant white-bearded fish from the exposed, it seems not to have been frightened by the explosion, floating in the water woodenly, the top of the head crimson, the cheeks of the snow-white, whisker length is even more amazing, a few meters long whiskers hanging full of small fish. Hanging all over the small fish, the age of this old fish has been difficult to estimate, it is probably the king of the fish in this lake.
Although we all know that these white-bearded fish will not attack people, but Lai Toad jumped to the foot surface, not to bite but also shocked, this big fish is too big, all look silly, this is a fucking fish or a dragon? Here is no dragon door, if there is a dragon door, this old fish is afraid that it can really become a dragon, in our so a stunned kung fu, this white dragon “white bearded fish” swinging his head and tail swam to the depths of the lake, hidden traces, the crowd was it swimming stirred up the current, only from the shock of the back to the taste of each other and carry each other, to the surface of the water! The people were brought back from their shock by the current of water stirred up by its swimming.
Once out of the water, we see the environment outside, compared with the snowy plains of the ground, is another world, behind the “disaster door” embedded in the ten thousand feet of dangerous cliffs, the head of the sky, blocked by a large thick clouds, thousands of meters of snowy mountains in the clouds hidden, surrounded by mountains and water, dense forests and trees, look at the lush, if there is a good gas, the distance from the nearest place, there is a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain. Our nearest place, there is a mountain slope, above the woods, a wide winding road from the forest out, the road surface is smooth as a mirror, connected to the lake, the mountains and forests are dense, but can not see where this road is connected.
Uncle Ming saw that there is a road, immediately overjoyed, said to me, “Let s swim close to the past, that road may be able to lead to the mountains outside …….”
I also have this intention, just about to agree, suddenly heard Shirley Yang eagerly said: “No, the road surface is too smooth, that is by no means what artificial repair out of the road, but by what beasts for years and years through the grinding out, let’s quickly swim to the far side of the green rock, now on the past, fast fast fast … … . don’t ever stop.”
