Chapter 4663: Abnormal Situation
"What do you think of this place?" Ning Che asked.
To her, the place seemed like nothing.
Lin Yi stood there, looking around. After seeing the big rock, he became more certain of his thoughts.
"Maybe there's something wrong with the area around this big rock. Let's take a closer look."
The four of them started checking again.
In fact, I had been here several times during the inspections in the previous two days, but I didn't take the time to carefully check the big rock where Sapkins was fishing.
At this moment, the four people's attention was all on the big rock, and they were carefully checking around the rock.
But after two hours, there was still no discovery.
"I don't think this way of looking will work. We need to get some detection equipment." Ning Che said.
In Ning Che's opinion, perhaps there was a problem somewhere, but these problems were difficult to see with the naked eye and required professional equipment.
This statement was also recognized by Cai Dongyi and Sheng Wenjing.
After the three of them finished their discussion, they subconsciously looked at Lin Yi, wanting to hear his opinion.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi actually sat on the big rock and didn't speak for a long time.
Ning Che knew Lin Yi, and signaled the two to keep quiet and not disturb Lin Yi.
A few minutes later, Lin Yi came down from the big rock. At this time, the sky had darkened, and everyone who came to Mount Zork for vacation had also evacuated.
At this moment, the circular mountain range became completely quiet, and the dark clouds in the sky were like a huge lid, trapping the four people inside.
Lin Yi got down from the big rock, and before Ning Che could ask any questions, he opened his mouth and said:
"Help me keep an eye on the surroundings. I'll go down and take a look."
"Go down."
After hearing what Lin Yi said, the three people's gazes naturally fell on the river.
"Do you think that weird thing is hiding down there?"
"It's not just that strange thing. It's very likely that the entrance is also underneath, but this is just my guess. I don't know what it looks like specifically." Lin Yi said:
"If I really don't find anything after going down, I'll just accept it. It'll still be in time to get the detection equipment back."
"I'll go down with you." Ning Che said.
"No need. Your night vision isn't as good as mine. It won't be helpful if you go down. Just help me guard here."
"Then be careful."
"Ah."
After the tasks were set, the four of them went their separate ways.
Lin Yi adjusted his clothes, trying to reduce his buoyancy, and then entered the water.
The light under his command was even dimmer, so Lin Yi took a flashlight and tried to illuminate the surrounding area.
The river was not very deep, only about two meters, so it was not difficult for Lin Yi to cross it.
But there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the surrounding situation, at least nothing could be seen with the naked eye.
Just like Ning Che said, it is a bit difficult to detect suspicious things with the naked eye, and equipment must be used.
But this time, we are not just looking for the so-called magical substance, but also looking for the entrance.
But if you think about it carefully, if there really is an entrance here, the river water will flow back, so the possibility of its existence is not high.
About two minutes later, Lin Yi felt a little short of breath and prepared to float up to breathe.
But just then, he discovered something strange.
A dead fish!
This caught Lin Yi's attention.
Under normal circumstances, a dead fish will float up, but now it has sunk to the bottom. This is abnormal, otherwise Newton would have jumped up.
Lin Yi swam towards the dead fish, picked it up and floated up.
Ning Che reached out to pull Lin Yi and found that he was holding a dead fish in his hand.
"what is this?"
"A dead fish I found underwater."
"What are you doing picking up dead fish now..."
Halfway through his speech, Ning Che realized something was wrong.
"A dead fish found underwater? Wouldn't a dead fish float to the surface?"
"I was wondering too, so I picked up the fish."
Lin Yi took off his clothes and tried to wring them dry.
"Do an autopsy to find out where the problem is."
Ning Che did as Lin Yi said, took out a dagger, and cut open the fish's belly.
The internal organs had already rotted, emitting a foul stench of decay.
But to a few people, this is nothing, just a routine operation.
"Huh? What is this?"
When they were cleaning out the internal organs, they saw a stone the size of a fingernail inside.
Ning Che picked it up and his expression changed instantly.
“So heavy!”
"Heavy?"
Lin Yi took the small stone and found that it was like a small iron ball. The weight was not what a small stone could have. The density must be very astonishing.
Afterwards, Cai Dongyi and Sheng Wenjing both tried it, and the latter said:
"The reason why this dead fish sank to the bottom of the river must be related to this thing."
"But this pebble is obviously abnormal." Ning Che said:
"Even if it's ore, it doesn't seem to be this heavy. The density is too great."
"Could it be some unknown radioactive substance that we don't know about yet, just like the ores and mysterious metals found before?" Sheng Wenjing said.
"It's unlikely to be radioactive." Lin Yi said:
"If there really was one, this place wouldn't be so harmonious. At the very least, the ecology of the river would be affected. For so many years, there has been no problem here. This also proves from the side that this stone is not a big problem, it's just a little denser."
Cai Dongyi also agreed with Lin Yi's statement: "We can send this thing back for inspection, maybe we can make some new discoveries."
"There's no rush for this. Let's first figure out the situation here."
Lin Yi had a premonition that if he didn't solve the problem here quickly, the situation might change.
"Besides this dead fish, what else did you find down there?" Ning Che asked.
Lin Yi shook his head. "I hadn't finished the investigation yet. When I came out for some fresh air, I saw this thing."
Ning Che looked at the dead fish on the ground, then looked at the stone in his hand.
"Although no clues were found, this stone will serve as evidence that there may be something wrong with this place."
"Sister Ning, is there such a possibility?" Sheng Wenjing said:
"Maybe a child, or someone, picked it up somewhere and threw it into the river and a fish swallowed it and died."
Before Ning Che could answer, Cai Dongyi spoke.
"That's possible, but there's also another possibility that the fish is somewhere down there, it ate the stone and died."
Ning Che looked at Cai Dongyi, "So what you mean is that there may be some magical place underwater, and this place may be the entrance."
"Yes!"
