Chapter 163 Longyan Lake

Although it is a village in a mountainous area, the village has already been connected to electricity, and a spacious cement road has been repaired. Every family is a small villa with at least two floors.

When a few people came here in the afternoon, they saw a tour group bus parked on the side of the road, and a group of tourists walked up the mountain under the leadership of the tour guide.

Rather than saying that this is a mountain village, it is better to say that this is a scenic tourist attraction.

"To enter the underground tomb, you must first find a place called Longan Lake." Luo Qi said, "I only know that Longan Lake is in this mountain, but I don't know the exact location."

"So you need to find a local as a guide?" Ji Ye asked.

Luo Qi nodded.

"This is a tourist village, so it should be easy to find a guide." Li Mour glanced at the restaurant not far ahead, "Let's go there for dinner first, and ask the boss during the meal."

This proposal was immediately approved by Hao Zhi.

They set off from the hospital at six o'clock in the morning, and they haven't eaten anything for seven or eight hours. He's already starving.

So a few people came to the restaurant first.

The restaurant is not big, it is a small restaurant of the husband and wife type. The owner of the restaurant is a middle-aged man under the age of 40. It is not lunch time, and he is the only one in the restaurant.

After arriving at the restaurant, while ordering food, Ji Ye asked the restaurant owner about Longyan Lake.

"Longyan Lake? Why are you going there?" The hotel owner's eyes showed a hint of surprise, "It's a natural reservoir, not to mention your tourists, even us locals are forbidden to approach it."

"We're not here for fun. We have other things to do when we go to Longyan Lake."

Ji Ye said: "As long as you help us find a guide, I can give you 1000 yuan as an introduction fee."

Hearing that Ji Ye was willing to pay 1000 yuan for an introduction fee, the restaurant owner immediately showed a look of excitement.

He hesitated and said, "I can help you find this guide, but you'd better not have too much hope, I guess no one is willing to take your order."

"Why? Is there anything special about that longan lake?"

Li Mour immediately sensed that there seemed to be something hidden in it, and asked.

The water quality of some reservoirs is very good, which is an important water resource. In order to prevent the water quality of the reservoir from being polluted, the local government will even move all the surrounding residents to farther places, and prohibit ordinary people from approaching the vicinity of the reservoir. If they are found, they will suffer corresponding penalty.

Li Mourn originally thought that this Longan Lake was also a reservoir of this nature, so he didn't find it strange when he first saw the hotel owner subconsciously shaking his head after hearing about Longan Lake.

But now the boss is so hesitant after seeing Ji Ye's generous shot, it can only show that there is something unusual about that Longan Lake.

"Longyan Lake is not an easy place." After questioning, the hotel owner explained the reason, "Many people have disappeared there, and we locals have never dared to go to that place..."

According to him, Longan Lake is actually not a natural reservoir, and the rhetoric of the reservoir is just an excuse to fool foreign tourists, in case some foreign tourists who travel by car go to Longan Lake to play.

Longyan Lake is located in the back mountain. The lake is very big and the water is very clean, but the strange thing is that there are no fish and shrimp in the lake, although there is nothing wrong with the lake water.

The reason why it is named Longyan Lake is because there are often large whirlpools with a diameter of two or three meters in the center of the lake, sometimes even reaching four or five meters. Looking down from above, the entire lake looks like the eyes of some creature.

"...It is said that the vortex leads to the underground underworld, and none of our locals dare to approach it."

The restaurant owner said: "Tourists go missing there every year, but no one has ever been found. The old people in the village say that those tourists who disappeared were taken to the underground hell."

Although the locals pulled up iron nets leading to Longan Lake, put up a sign saying that no entry was allowed, and made up a lie about a natural reservoir, there are always tourists who want to die and hit by mistake. Enter that place, and then there is no audio.

Of course, not all the people who have been there have disappeared, and most of them have returned safely, but the fact that a few people disappear every year in a place is enough to make people feel scared.

"It's so weird..." Hao Zhi turned pale when he heard it, "Why don't we go?"

All three ignored his words.

"I can pay a guide fee of 5, as long as we are brought to the vicinity of Longan Lake." Ji Ye understood what the Longan Lake meant to the locals, and directly raised the guide fee to [-].

Hearing the amount of [-], the restaurant owner immediately opened his mouth.

He followed up and asked, "Just bring you nearby, right?"

"Take it nearby, we will go there by ourselves." Ji Ye nodded and said.

In places like deep mountains and old forests, there is no guide who is familiar with the terrain to help guide the way. Even if you know the general direction, it is useless. The greater chance is that you will go astray to an unknown place.

Let them go to find that longan lake by themselves, they don't know when they will find it, and how much time will be wasted.

"Okay, I'll take you there!" The hotel owner nodded fiercely and made a decision, "But you have to pay me the 5 yuan first."

He was ready to take the order himself.

Now is the off-season for tourism, and the three-month profit of a small restaurant like his does not add up to 5 yuan.

Anyway, the restaurant didn't have many customers in the afternoon, so it's better to go out and earn some extra money.

"No problem." Ji Ye said with a smile.

He doesn't have to worry about the boss taking the money and not doing anything, and it doesn't matter if he pays first.

So after it was decided, Ji Ye didn't wait until departure, and directly transferred the 5 yuan to the restaurant owner on the spot.

After they finished their meal, the boss didn't even clear the table, so he closed the shutter door and led them into the mountain.

……

The distance between Longyan Lake and the village is neither far nor close. The straight-line distance is about five or six kilometers. Even an ordinary person can walk for such a long distance in an hour.

However, because it is located in the middle of the mountains, the route inevitably twists and turns, and the mountains and the ground are completely different, making it much more difficult to walk.

Although Li Mour and the others were not affected by the complex terrain, they walked on the ground wherever they went, but the hotel owner who was the guide was an ordinary person, and Hao Zhi was injured, so the speed was not very fast.

It took nearly two hours before the hotel owner took them to a high slope and saw the Longan Lake.

Standing here and looking over, it is just a very ordinary lake, and there are no trees around it, so it looks a bit empty.

"That's Longan Lake... It's about an hour's walk from here..." The hotel owner said while panting heavily, pointing to the lake in the distance.

The road in the mountains was far more difficult than walking on the flat ground, but he was exhausted after walking for two hours.

After sending them here, the boss turned back and went back along the original road. Even though there was still some distance from Longan Lake, he still felt very uncomfortable.

After the restaurant owner left, Li Mour directly rolled up Hao Zhi with the twisting force field. Under Hao Zhi's panicked shouts, the three of them completely let go of their speed and rushed towards Longan Lake.

Originally, it took about an hour, but it took them less than 10 minutes to complete the journey and arrived at the lakeside of Longan Lake.

"Indeed, there are no fish, shrimp or other living things in the lake." Li Mourn glanced across the lake and said thoughtfully.

The water in the lake is very clear, and you can almost see the bottom of the lake at a glance. You can't see any fish, shrimp or other creatures, not even aquatic plants.

But what can be seen is limited to the area by the lake, and the area near the center of the lake can only see a bottomless darkness.

The lake is obviously very beautiful, but it gives people a strange feeling of abnormal silence.

"Is the lake water poisonous?" Hao Zhi showed fear, and subconsciously stepped back a little.

"The lake water is not poisonous, it's radiation." Ji Ye half squatted down, holding up the lake water in his hands, "There is a strong radiation residue in the lake water, and ordinary life cannot survive at all."

As a monster, he is extremely sensitive to radiant energy.

"Longan Lake is connected to the underground river, and you can enter the ancient tomb from the underground river at the deepest part of the lake." Luo Qi explained how to enter the ancient tomb.

"Go in from the bottom of the lake?" Hao Zhi couldn't help but turn pale, "Let's not talk about the radiation in this lake... just such a deep lake can kill people easily, right?"

Not to mention his kind of landlubber who has no water skills at all, even a master snorkeler would not dare to go down such a deep lake casually.

There has always been a folk saying that deep lakes are more terrifying than deep seas.

"I'll go down and take a look first." Ji Ye released his human form as he spoke, and turned into a ferocious demon body like a killer.

"Be careful." Li Mour said.

Ji Ye nodded, jumped directly into the lake, and swam quickly towards the center of the lake.

They didn't wait long on the top, and after about 10 minutes, Ji Ye came up from below again.

"There is indeed a deep hole at the bottom of the center of the lake. It's very dark inside. I don't know where it leads."

Ji Ye said: "The depths of the lake are not as calm as they appear on the surface. There is a strong undercurrent. The people who disappeared before should have been sucked into that deep hole by the undercurrent when swimming in the lake."

Lakes like this generally should not have undercurrents, but they should be formed because they are connected to underground rivers.

And for swimmers, undercurrents are more dangerous than anything.

Li Mour nodded and said, "Then let's go down."

"Wait." Hao Zhi's expression changed immediately, and he stepped back, "I can't swim..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was violently swept over by Li Mour's twisting force field, followed them into the lake, and swam toward the depths of the lake.

Not long after they entered the lake, the calm surface of the lake suddenly started to move, and soon formed a large whirlpool with a diameter of four to five meters.
