I pointed to my head and said with a smile, "My son is about thirty. He was kicked by a mule when he was a child, so his reaction is a bit slow."
"I don't quite understand. Boss, you look to be in your early twenties. Why is your son older than you?"
I immediately became unhappy, frowned and said, "I'm just looking at your figure, I'm looking at how hard it is for you to make a living as an orphan and a widowed mother! That's why I'm willing to help you, why do you keep asking questions!"
She hurriedly said, "Boss, I don't mean anything else! I just can't figure it out. We don't know each other, why are you willing to help me? After all, I have nothing worthy of you."
"Boss, do you want to"
She raised her head and glanced at me, her face suddenly turned red for no reason.
I knew she was overthinking, so I quickly said don’t overthink it, it’s just a small favor! Nothing else!
But having said that, my overall appearance is stable to handsome, and I am dressed as a wealthy businessman, so it is understandable that she would think wrong.
After chatting for a while, the other party gradually became less defensive about me. She enthusiastically told me that her name was Xiaohui. She was originally from Tiantai County, Zhejiang Province. Her husband was a drunkard who didn't care about his family. After they divorced, she took her children to clean up.
After leaving home, he now mainly relies on his income from shoe polishing to support himself and his children.
I thought it was just an ordinary chance encounter, and the two parties would never see each other again, but I never thought
That's a story for later, so I won't mention it here.
It was around twelve o'clock that night in the Beihu District. There was a bit of darkness and fog around, and a small boat floated on the water like a ghost.
Douyazai hung a waterproof blue light on the bow of the boat so that we can easily see the position of the boat underwater later.
After checking the gas cylinder, Douyazai said, "I'll go down first to see what's going on. I'll be back soon."
"Be careful."
Dou Sprout made an OK gesture and fell into the lake with his back turned.
The boat was not big, so it seemed a bit crowded with so many people. He looked at the sparkling lake and remained silent. At this time, Brother Yu
Asked me, "Yunfeng, what is that thing hanging on your waist?"
"You said this, Brother Yu, this is my purse, I packed it this afternoon."
Xiaoxuan smiled and said, "Brother Yu, do you think Yunfeng is stupid or not? I saw him steaming all the shit from the Echo Duck in the afternoon and packing it in several bags. He didn't even listen to me when I told him."
"What do you know? This is a folk remedy! The smell of duck and goose droppings can drive away snakes! This is what I call being prepared!"
Xiaoxuan laughed at me and said, "You are so messy, why haven't I heard of this kind of folk remedy?"
I was too lazy to explain to her, so if she didn't believe me, I went to find out. Many fish farmers use dried duck and goose droppings to drive away water snakes. This is a fact.
The wetsuit is tight, and Xiaoxuan is wearing a figure that shows off her figure. When I see her, I think of Xiaohui, the shoe shine girl I just met during the day. Why did I specifically mention Xiaohui's figure before? That's because it is too conspicuous, conspicuous enough to make a
Normal men can't ignore it. According to my experience, it's definitely not extra fat, it's the real thing. It's a good start.
When I compared this in my mind, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"There are flowers on my face? Why are you laughing?" Xiao Xuanhu asked.
"No, I'm not laughing at anything!"
There are some things I dare not say, and I will definitely die if I say them.
Dou Sprout is very good at water, so we don’t have to worry about him entering the water. His head was always furrowed, so I asked him what he was thinking.
"I'm thinking about what this area looked like before it was flooded," said the leader.
"Then what's there to think about? Before 1959, this place should have been part of the then Laochuncheng Tea Garden Town. According to the records in the new county annals in 1999, decades ago, the Japs flew planes to carry out bombings, and there were platoons in the tea gardens.
There were heavy losses in the Wuling area, and there may not be many people left in the future." I analyzed.
He raised his head to show his approval of what I said, and then said, "I hope
I hope we are not trying to find a sword, and it would be best if we can gain something."
The first worry is also my worry, I am afraid of trying to find a sword, but no one can say for sure, everything is possible, the only thing is to be brave and careful.
The boss and I were lamenting that everything was different here, when suddenly we heard Xiaoxuan exclaiming, "Who!"
I immediately turn on the flashlight!
I saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the water and grabbed the side of the boat.
The next second, Dou Sprout's head slowly floated up.
"Damn bean sprout boy!"
"You deliberately wanted to scare people to death, right? Why didn't you give a signal when you came up?" Xiaoxuan was in shock, patting her chest and said.
Dou Sprout came up and quickly took off the gas bottle, and sneezed.
"Yazi, how's the situation?" Brother Yu asked nervously.
Dou Yazai looked excited and said, "There are no fish at all under the water! The underwater environment is very complicated! There are many old-fashioned hulks! There are also a lot of stacked large rocks! I don't know what dry hair is used for!"
"Hulk? Big rocks stacked up?"
"Yes! I didn't look carefully! Anyway, some of those stone strips have patterns carved on them! Some have no patterns! Besides, the water temperature is lower than I expected! No kidding! Be careful not to cramp! I feel cold.
no!"
Douyazai gritted his teeth and said, "A single dive can last no more than fifteen to twenty minutes! I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it as time goes by!"
Dou Yazai added, "Boss, Zhao Xuanxuan, you two don't go into the water, you two are responsible for releasing the wind and picking up the goods! Brother Yunfeng, Yunfeng, and I are young and full of energy, so it won't be a big problem."
I nodded and said no problem.
Although Douyazai and Xiaoxuan often fight and scold each other, we will always think about each other at critical moments.
"Fengzi, let's do it like this!"
"You and Brother Yu change every fifteen minutes. If something small comes out, we can take it if we can. If something big comes out, let's take it first.
After marking it, I will try to find a way to get it. I feel like there is definitely something good hidden in the water."
"Brother Yu and I work two shifts? You don't need to change?"
"It's okay! I don't need to change! It's better not to brag than to tell the truth! Even if I don't bring a gas bottle, nothing will happen!" Bean Sprout said with a confident look on his face.
I know he is not bragging. After all, he is a man who has swum in the sea before. Without him, our plan to hunt for underwater treasures in Qiandao Lake will be difficult.
That was settled, I warmed up, took the equipment and followed Dou Sprout into the water one after another.
The bottom of the lake was indeed very cold and dark, and there were many floating objects similar to "snowflakes" that affected our sight. I could hear my own breathing clearly.
Many old rotten wooden boats were half-buried at the bottom of the lake. I saw the number "1933" written on the hull of one of the boats, which may mean that the boat was built in 1933.
The origin of these broken sunken ships concentrated at the bottom of the lake is unknown and cannot be verified in a short period of time. There are stacks of stacked bluestone strips placed not far from the sunken ships. Some of the bluestones have patterns of carved dragons and painted phoenixes.
I grabbed my headlamp and took a closer look, and was surprised.
Because these bluestone strips are all the famous "tea garden stone". This kind of bluestone was a very high-quality and valuable building material in ancient times, and ordinary people could not afford it. The county chronicle said that many tea garden stone mines were close to exhaustion during the Republic of China. Why is it here?
There are so many piles? It seems that quite a few are still semi-finished products that are about to be completed.
The next second, Dou Sprout's headlight shone towards me, and I saw him holding a black jar in his hand and shaking it hard at me.
I gestured for him to throw it away, but it was no use. It was just an authentic pickle jar that could only last for decades and was worthless.
After understanding what I meant, Dou Sprout threw the things away casually. The pickle jar rolled twice and stopped when it hit a sunken ship.
Suddenly, Dou Sprout seemed to have made some important discovery, and he waved to me desperately.
