Below the sea level, Qin Zhibo put on the diving suit and diving equipment left by the captain, gently flipped his flippers, and dived slowly.
Diving is different from ordinary swimming. Swimming is mainly an activity on the water surface, and the speed can be very fast, and it has even become a competitive sport.
But below the sea surface, there are issues related to the human body's ability to withstand water pressure, the increased weight of carrying equipment, and experience in using scuba.
In addition, the visibility on the seabed is extremely low, the environment is complex, and various reefs, corals, and fish will block the view, easily causing emergencies.
Therefore, it is generally necessary to take an OW diving course before diving. Only after passing it can you wear the equipment to perform diving operations in open water.
Of course, if you just know how to swim, it’s okay to dive for a while.
After all, some people just rely on their aura of being the protagonist and dare to go ahead regardless.
As he dived deeper and deeper, Qin Zhibo saw the rocks on the seabed through the diving light on his head.
Within the scope of the light, the corals on the reef are not as colorful as in some marine promotional videos, but are uniformly gray-green.
They stand like strips of tumors, which are not very friendly to patients with trypophobia.
In order to allow his lungs to adapt to the first dive and to facilitate recording of the depth of the dive, Qin Zhibo has been diving at a constant speed, so now he can almost calculate that his depth is about 32m.
The depth of ordinary people's diving without equipment is generally 10m, and professionally trained divers can reach more than 20m. Due to the existence of "diving disease", starting from 30m is considered a deep dive.
So strictly speaking, Qin Zhibo can now be regarded as a "deep diver".
At this depth, Qin Zhibo felt his ears buzzing and his chest felt tight. Every time he swam one meter, he could feel the fatigue transmitted from his limbs to his brain.
He hadn't eaten anything since noon yesterday, so his physical strength was extremely low. The five-minute dive alone had consumed more than a third of his energy.
If you can't find it, you have to go back first
Although it was daytime, Qin Zhibo did not dare to shift the center of his vision outside the headlight, for fear that he would notice the blue-black sea water and cause the same symptoms as at night.
If you get sick here, it will be a veritable phobia of the deep sea.
Just when Qin Zhibo passed by one piece after another of the same gray-green rocks and was about to return home as his physical strength declined rapidly, something different caught his attention.
It was an anchor stuck in a coral crevice.
Qin Zhibo dragged his body, which was obviously tired, to swim to the anchor, and observed the anchor through the light of his headlight.
Judging from the iron light that has not faded from the top, the anchor was not that far back when it was left behind.
This reminded Qin Zhibo that the bandits had sunk the golden screen into the sea and hid it. It must have been tied to a heavy object.
Maybe it was this anchor that was tied.
Qin Zhibo looked around with his headlamp and suddenly found a duffel bag lying quietly on the sand under the reef.
He slowly swam over, picked up the duffel bag, opened the zipper and took a quick look at the contents, and a large white bra floated out.
Mao Lilan didn't bring any luggage, so this could only be Taira Ie's luggage.
I'm pretty lucky today. It happens to be the baggage I want to get most.
Qin Zhibo stuffed the bra he was trying to escape into into his luggage bag and just put the strap on his shoulders when he vaguely heard the sound of low running water coming from the left side of his body.
call--
Qin Zhibo's eyes quickly turned to the left, and a dark rock crack appeared in his field of vision.
This crack is so huge that two people can pass through it side by side. The sound of running water comes from this deep and bottomless space.
In order to save energy, Qin Zhibo, who was floating in the sea, did not turn around, but just turned his head towards the crack in the reef.
But even so, Qin Zhibo's eyes seemed to be attracted by some indescribable magic power, and he couldn't help but look at the darkest core.
There seems to be something in there.
At this moment, Qin Zhibo did not dare to wander away easily, because if there were any creatures that really threatened him, he would never be able to escape at his current speed.
Instead of wandering around in confusion, leaving an undefended back, perhaps it would be better to face it directly.
His eyes under the swimming goggles were slightly narrowed, and Qin Zhibo's fists were quietly clenched at this moment, ready to deal with the "things" rushing out from that deep place at any time.
Qin Zhibo:Will-5
While staring into the abyss, Qin Zhibo's will inevitably began to decline.
Suddenly, some changes occurred in the cracks in the reef.
From that deep darkness, hundreds of silver-white horse mackerel, about 30cm in length, swam out.
They passed by Qin Zhibo as if nothing had happened, as if they just regarded Qin Zhibo as a huge piece of seaweed floating in the sea.
When all the horse mackerel swaggered past, everything seemed to be calm again.
Qin Zhibo smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling that his spirit was too sensitive to everything in the sea.
If you continue like this, you will become sick even if you are not sick.
It's better to go back quickly.
Qin Zhibo made up his mind, turned his head back, and was about to swing the flippers on his legs to dive when he suddenly felt something was wrong with his right field of vision.
It was a hazy gray-green color.
Qin Zhibo suddenly turned his head and found a spine-chilling creature floating in the sea water less than two meters away from Qin Zhibo.
It has vague features similar to humans, with clear limbs and torso, a gray-green back, and a white belly. The scales on its body look bright and slippery, but its head is a fat-headed fish that seems to have been deformed and mutated by nuclear radiation.
There are gills that are constantly trembling on the short and thick neck, and a pair of huge, protruding eyeballs that never close, staring at Qin Zhibo.
It's a "mermaid"!
Qin Zhibo's heart trembled, and his wrists shook rapidly. This was caused by fright.
Reflected on the data, his will instantly dropped by 20 points.
NMD, it scares me to death!
The moment he and the "mermaid" looked at each other, Qin Zhibo's brain recognized a truth, that is, the creature "mermaid" has no connection with "beauty" in the traditional sense.
From the slightly dull eyes and the deformed fat-headed fish face, a kind of dark emotion is conveyed.
From now on, anyone who says the word "mermaid" will be in trouble!
After the human brain's calm reaction time in the face of unexpected situations, Qin Zhibo's body quickly took action and swam forward using both hands and feet.
At this moment, Qin Zhibo couldn't care less about his physical limitations or the pressure on his lungs.
