It was completely different from what I imagined. I didn't see any bricks or tiles, only large swaths of coral reefs, growing wantonly in various strange postures, like a thousand-year-old giant beast on the seabed with teeth and claws.

Strange, shouldn't this kind of thing appear in the tropics? Hainan, Taiwan and other places in China are already the highest latitudes where coral reefs appear. In a place like Shanghai with four distinct seasons, the temperature in winter is even close to zero, how could it happen like this?

Numerous coral reefs?

In this vast seabed, I couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and south. I picked up the compass and looked at it, but found that the pointer was moving around randomly, not guiding me at all.

Oops, there must be a huge magnetic field source nearby, which disrupted the compass. I quickly pressed the communication button, but there was a lot of noise, and I couldn't talk at all. Taking a chance, I yelled a few times, and the only answers I got were messy words.

The sound of electric current. I saw that Yang Tao and Dong Hao were standing about seven or eight meters away from me, with their backs to me. They would definitely not be heard when shouting, and they would definitely not be able to throw stones far away.

Reluctantly, he picked up the flashlight and shook it around. The light caught their attention. Yang Tao looked back at me, raised his hand, and pressed down, as if to ask me to put down the flashlight. It seemed that the two of them had already turned off the flashlight. I

Not daring to disobey, I quickly turned it off. With the last ray of light, I saw a large black cloud-like object approaching us not far away.

Yang Tao and Dong Hao had already lowered themselves down at this time, and I followed their example, lying on the coral reef and watching the black cloud float over. It wasn't until it passed over my head that I realized that it was not black at all.

clouds, but a group of black surgeonfish. I have seen this fish in the tropical fish tank of Huang Dongdong's house. I heard that although it is not big, the two long tail fins at the tail can cause serious injuries to people if they swing violently.

scratches. If such an overwhelming swarm of surgeonfish shake their tails at you, it will be no different from the ancient torture of being cut into pieces.

However, this is obviously a temperate sea area, so why is there a typical tropical fish like surgeonfish?

I put my hand on the coral reef and suddenly felt a slight shaking and warm heat. What is there under this coral reef? Could it be the legendary giant sea monster sleeping under this coral reef? Could it be that the water temperature here is contrary to the normal temperature of the coral reef?

Higher than the surface, so that coral reefs and surgeonfish can survive here because of the body temperature of this sea monster? If this is the case, if this guy wakes up, wouldn't it shake the earth and shake the entire sea water?

in turn?

Could it be that the earthquakes that often occurred here in ancient times, the tsunamis that poured into the ancient Kangcheng, and the eventual sinking of Kangcheng into the sea were all caused by this extremely huge sea monster?

Soon, I rejected my far-fetched guess. If there is a "Northern Kunfish" like the one mentioned in Zhuangzi's "Xiaoyaoyou" that is "thousands of miles big", it will

You can actually live here for more than a thousand years without eating or drinking, until your body is covered with coral reefs, and you can still emit body heat? This is unscientific!

There must be some other reason.

The school of surgeonfish had gone away. Yang Tao and Dong Hao stood up, waved their flashlights towards me, and made a gesture to get closer to them. I slowly swam over until I was close to them, and finally came from the earphones:

Yang Tao's voice: "There is a huge magnetic field here," interrupted for a moment, "Our communication." I guessed that the word "affected" was missing in the middle, so I nodded.

Yang Tao continued: "Let's hang this rope around our waists, connect them together, and then scatter around to look for any clues. If we encounter trouble, just pull this rope."

After tying the rope, the three of us went to look for it separately. I turned on the flashlight and found that the seabed was not as beautiful as the diving travel programs on TV. It was an extremely dirty seabed with almost no fish or shells.

, sea anemones, starfish, sea urchins and other common seabed creatures, only the empty shell of a sea turtle was seen. I don’t know how long it had been dead, and the meat inside had long been eaten away and corroded.

It can be said that in this sea area, except for those terrifying schools of surgeonfish, there are almost no signs of life.

I was searching forward when suddenly a black shadow flashed past me to my left.

I broke out in a cold sweat: That was the shadow of a person!

I touched the rope around my waist. Yang Tao and Dong Hao were both behind me. The figure on the left was definitely not them.

Enemy? Or... water ghost?

I couldn't help but feel horrified: This shadow, no matter how I looked at it, I didn't think it was an enemy. It was because he didn't have a backpack.

This is a seabed about twenty-five meters deep. The maximum depth that humans can dive without any protective equipment is generally twenty meters, and this requires a strong ability to hold your breath to walk on the seabed, otherwise you will have to go back as soon as you come down. Impression

Here, only some people in coastal areas who make a living by collecting seabed pearls can dive to this depth without any equipment, but they only have time to open a shell before they have to return to the surface.

I held my breath and concentrated, turned off the flashlight, and touched in the direction of the figure.

Not having any weapons is a big problem. Next time I dive, I must bring a speargun, at least a speargun.

The figure was walking around in front of me, as if walking on flat ground. Most of the time, I could only vaguely see a faint back figure through a little light coming from the sea. The strange thing is that this back figure looks

She is very slender, with a slender waist and long legs. There is no long hair floating in the water like the "forbidden woman" written by the third uncle of the Southern School. Looking from the back, this blurred back actually looks like a woman with short hair.

No, female ghost.

I have indeed broken through Mao Bin's deception. I do not believe that Wang Yongshun is a corpse breeder, but this does not mean that I have no faith in the almighty power of nature. For this figure who walks swiftly under the water and does not need to breathe at all, I

I can't think of any other words to describe it, it can only be called - ghost.

Suddenly, the female ghost seemed to stop, as if she had discovered that I was following her, and looked back. I quickly picked up the flashlight, turned on the switch, and shined it towards her.

Before the light had time to hit her, she had already disappeared!

She just disappeared out of thin air!

I was shocked on the spot, and the only thing that played over and over in my mind was her two eyes staring at me before she disappeared.

Those are almost not human eyes. If you really want to describe it, it is better to say that it is a cat's eye - under a glance of light, it emits dazzling reflections. If you use a flash to take a picture of a cat, when you see the photo,

You will be frightened by those eyes. The reflected light seems to shine directly into your soul, which is really terrifying.

I calmed down and was about to chase forward to see how this female ghost with cat eyes disappeared out of thin air. Unexpectedly, the rope tied around my waist had reached its end. In a moment of anxiety, I stepped forward with all my strength.

Okay, the webs under my feet were rubbing against the coral reefs, and the sharp rocks could actually penetrate the rubber soles, causing my feet to ache.

The rope suddenly loosened. I knew that Yang Tao and Dong Hao must have felt my pulling force and followed the rope out of fear that something might happen to me.

I continued walking forward and reached the place where the female ghost disappeared. Before I could take a closer look, I discovered that there was a rotten human hand with only bones left on the rocks next to it!

My scalp became numb for a while, and I couldn't help but scream. The water vapor I exhaled blurred my mask, making it even more difficult to see clearly. Because the mask was tightly tied to my head with a strap, and it was on the bottom of the sea.

I didn't dare to take it off and wipe it. Just like this, I vaguely followed the bones of my hand and couldn't help but gasp.

This is a human skeleton.

The two empty eye sockets flickered on and off under the flickering light, which made my heart tighten and I couldn't help but take a big breath. Soon, my head became dizzy and I developed symptoms of over-inhalation. The world was spinning for a while,

I involuntarily took a few steps back, sat down on the ground, clutched my chest, and tried to calm myself down. But it was very difficult. Once this symptom occurs, unless you are an extremely experienced diver, the situation will only get worse and worse.

It's getting worse.

Just when I was about to pass out, I suddenly felt that my body was light and fluttering, flying upwards and stopping. After a long time, my eyes suddenly became bright, and then I felt something being tied to the shoulder sockets on both sides, and then my body suddenly shook.

The ground fell lightly, and then fell heavily onto the flat surface.

When I calmed down, I realized that it was Yang Tao and Dong Hao who rushed over and found me unconscious on the ground. They quickly rescued me and inflated my BC while dragging it to the surface. They did not dare to float too fast.

, fearing that I would suffer from decompression sickness after losing consciousness, I could only float a few meters and stop for a while. When I came out of the water, people tied my shoulders with ropes and pulled me out of the water.

Unexpectedly, my first serious diving experience ended up in such a shameful end. Originally, I really thought that after going down, I would be the first to find evidence of the existence of Kangcheng, and then follow the map to find the location of Xishi's tomb. Here

In the process of searching for the tomb, he went to another city. This time, instead of being regarded as a hero, he became a rat in the water.

Moreover, when I woke up and told about my underwater experience, no one believed me.

Indeed, if you haven’t seen it with your own eyes, you will never believe these ghosts so easily. In Zhao Chen’s words, I would rather believe a man’s mouth than you who say there are ghosts in the world.

As for the withered human bones, both Yang Tao and Dong Hao said they didn't see them. The visibility was indeed very low at that time. They were only focused on saving me, and the position where I fell was several steps away from the skeleton. They didn't

Seeing it is also a reasonable thing.

After Yang Tao listened to what I said, he pondered for a while and said: "I believe Professor Lin will not lie, but these things are too bizarre and are probably your hallucinations. In short, there is nothing to gain from this dive. There are only coral reefs below.

something else."

I haven't fully recovered from my dizziness, but after hearing what he said, I interrupted him and said, "Who said there is no gain?"

Dong Hao sneered at the side and said: "Professor Lin's gain is probably that he knows what hyperinhalation is, right? It is also a good thing to gain wisdom by taking a step."

I heard his sarcastic tone, but I didn't get angry. To be honest, it was useless for me. I had seen so many corpses in the morgue of the Chest Hospital, but I was so frightened by a dead skeleton at the bottom of the sea that I even felt blushing.
