Chapter 115 Cutting

After waiting quietly for a few seconds, I took two deep breaths, immediately stood up with my bag, and walked quickly towards the pond.

I stepped lightly into the water, patted Lao Ka, and started swimming downstream.

This time it was different. The bags we brought were very heavy, so we dived very quickly. Lao Ka used to do this kind of work, so he was naturally good at water. I pointed to the collapsed hole at the bottom of the pond, and he understood immediately.

Swimming past the dragon monkey, Lao Ka obviously slowed down, probably because he was startled by the sudden sight.

The dragon monkey still maintains an up and down posture at the bottom of the water, floating unsteadily.

Compared to a few days ago, it has begun to deteriorate. My body feels like it has been out of breath, and I have gained a lot of weight.

More than ten minutes later.

There was a sound of water breaking.

He took off his mask and swam to the shore. When he came up, Lao Ka said: "Why didn't you say there was a dead person under the water? I was really shocked just now. That person was..."

"It has nothing to do with us. The man was under the water before we came here. We don't know his name."

Of course I won't admit it, I'll just say I don't know him.

Lao Ka looked at me with a somewhat thoughtful look. It's okay to know some things well and not to reveal them.

"What a strange place."

Lao Ka took photos back and forth with his flashlight.

"I knew about Guizai Ling, but I didn't expect...n There is such a unique cave underground, it's eye-opening."

Lao Ka followed me on the road without asking me what kind of tomb it was or where it was.

This is the professional rule. When you receive money to do things, you don't ask any questions that shouldn't be asked.

I took the bag I left here beforehand, which contained our wetsuits.

It's past one o'clock on the ground now. I expect to arrive around 0 o'clock, and the time I set for me is 12 o'clock tonight. After 12 o'clock, it will be Monday.

Seeing that I was carrying two big bags, he said: "The road ahead should be difficult, do you need me to pick one up for you?"

"No, I have no problem, let's go."

We walked until after five o'clock and arrived at the Thief's Cave.

First unload the bag, then grab the rope and slide down.

After Lao Ka saw the blasted doors, he couldn't help but let out a few exclamations.

"who is it?"

Suddenly, a female voice came from the darkness ahead.

"Sister Chun, don't panic, I am."

I turned on the flashlight and shook it forward.

Seeing clearly that it was me who was coming, Ah Chun said: "Come quickly, Wang Baotou is waiting."

When I entered the tomb with flowing water, I saw that the red coffin had been dismantled.

Douyazai was sitting cross-legged on the coffin board. There were some jade pots in front of him, which he was washing vigorously with water.

Like several other people, Xiaoxuan and Brother Yu were also sitting on a coffin board. For those who didn't know, they thought this was a water rafting amusement park.

Lao Ka stepped forward and said: "The king is the leader, I have heard about his name for a long time."

He coughed twice and forced a smile on his face.

"Brother Lao Ka, you have a tough idea. I also happen to know that you have settled in Changzhou. I'm sorry for bothering you so much."

Lao Ka nodded: "Okay, since I have collected the money, I will stop talking nonsense and tell you the situation."

I introduced: "It is about 15 to 20 meters underwater. It is a coffin. It is integrated and cast with molten iron. The visibility under the water is low. There are many stone sculptures around it. Brother Ka, it is not easy."

"Um... does it go down from here?"

Lao Ka walked over, looked down and asked.

The red coffin has been dismantled, and the waist pit now exposed looks like a rectangular toilet, with water constantly rising upwards.

Underwater cutting is a technical job, why do we need to find someone, because we can't do it.

Some teams in the southern faction have people like this. In the second half of 2009, many rusty Ming Dynasty Shenwu iron cannons suddenly appeared on the black antique market in the south. They were installed on both sides of the warship. One of them was even on the "

"Treasure Hunting" column, these are all cut from ancient sunken ships.

The inflatable belt and cylinder that Lao Ka brought with him were different from those used by Master Ji before. His inflatable belt was made of soft copper and was thinner, with sealing wax at the joints. The cylinder was also smaller and was made of water.

Get a special hydrogen-oxygen mixing bottle.

"You want to get off your head too?" Brother Yu asked as he took a diving suit.

He nodded and said, "I'm going to go down and take command, leaving one or two people above to watch, while everyone else goes into the water."

Because they didn't have enough diving suits, they looked at each other and Brother Yu said, "Let's do this. You two girls stay here and watch while us guys go down. That's fair."

"What?"

"fair?"

Ah Chun raised his eyebrows and said, "Yu Bin, do you look down on me?"

Brother Yu immediately waved his hand: "No, I don't look down on you, I just think it's better if you stay on top."

While putting on his clothes, he said: "Just listen to Bin, Xiaoxuan, you and Miss Achun stay above to take care of the situation. It's also important to keep an eye on this place, and keep the flashlight on."

Xiaoxuan nodded and said yes, Ah Chun would not argue.

Several people took to the water one after another with headlamps.

Black, too dark.

Thousands of years have passed, and not a ray of sunlight can shine underwater. There are no fish, not even aquatic plants can be seen. The only thing we can rely on is a headlamp.

A large number of stone sculptures of ghost cubs are lying quietly on the bottom of the water, and some are still standing.

These ghost stones seem to have not been disturbed by anyone for a long time.

I dived down to the iron house and took a look with my headlamp.

It is similar to what Dou Yazai described. It is made of pig iron, stained with rust, and has doors, windows and eaves carved throughout. There are many nail patterns protruding from the two small doors of the iron house. If you reach out and touch it, you can feel the unevenness.

Lao Ka wore a mask and sunglasses, and carried two gas cylinders, one large and one small, on his back. One was connected to the mask, and the other was connected to the hose, followed by the special cutting gun in his hand.

On the way here, Lao Ka gave me a general introduction, so I know a little bit about it.

There are two ways to light a fire. One is to light it on the water and swim down with a cutting gun.

The other way is to use it underwater. He has a homemade lithium battery lighter, which is about the size of a palm, and he uses this point.

At that time, Shi Laoka said with a smile: "Professional people will install anti-backfire devices around the gas supply main pipe, and also install air leakage detection and explosion-proof valves at the bottom of the cutting torch."

I asked him if you have any?

"Do you think I have it?"

I shook my head, and he just gave me a homemade gas bottle and an ordinary leather pipe.

I asked, what should I do if the operation is incorrect and the air leaks? Will it explode if it comes into contact with an open flame?

He nodded and said: "Air leakage is bound to happen. I have been working for so many years, and there has never been a time when there was no air leakage. It leaked again and again."

Seeing my ugly expression, he added: "When cutting something underwater, the hydrogen gas that is ejected and not completely burned will gradually move upward. When I cut, I also cut from top to bottom."

"As long as I keep my hands steady and keep the fire going down, everything will be fine."

After thinking about this, I took back my thoughts.

I was watching the old card and it was already on fire.

The special cutting gun emitted a yellow-blue flame underwater. Lao Ka adjusted his sunglasses and swam over with the cutting gun in hand.

He moved very carefully. During the swimming process, he raised his elbows very high to avoid touching the air supply pipe.

Unable to speak underwater, Lao Ka pressed his hand on the small door of the iron house and turned to look at the leader.

He made a gesture with his head, meaning let’s get started.

Because people float up and down in the water, Dou Sprout got under Lao Ka's crotch and held his legs tightly with his hands to keep him as stable as possible.

The cutting gun spurted out tongues of yellow-blue flames, forcing back the surrounding water flow, and Lao Ka's long hair flew back and forth.

The cutting gun approached the iron house and gradually increased its firepower.

The flames reflected on the old cassette's sunglasses, making people look at it.

It was like his eyes were on fire.
