Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 500
Lao Lu's people pushed the trolley and dragged the boxes full of tobacco away from the platform. Only then did Qi Lin notice that not far behind the platform, on one side of the tunnel wall, there was an obviously man-made tunnel. This is the way to the "port".

Qi Lin followed Lao Lu's man and walked in. As soon as he entered the cave, he felt the humidity in the air suddenly rise a lot.

Underground rivers, also known as "subterranean rivers" and "underground rivers", mostly appear in karst landforms.

The scale of underground rivers varies from large to small. Large-scale underground rivers can form a complete underground water system, with a basin area of ​​over a thousand square kilometers. The longest proven underground river in the world is the "Dragon Bridge Underground" in China. River", located between Enshi, Hubei and Fengjie, Chongqing, with a total length of [-] kilometers.

Although the dark river leading to No. 906 refuge is incomparable to the Dragon Bridge dark river, it is also a big dark river.

Lao Lu and the others led Qi Lin along this passage until they reached an underground cave. This cave had obviously been remodeled, and it was located conveniently for trolleys to pass through. The ground was covered with many planks, and a flat ramp reached the edge of the water.

A cargo ship was moored on the shore, which was a common sand carrier in canals in the old days. Lao Lu's men put a few planks on the side of the ship, and the trolley boarded the deck of the sand carrier along the planks.

Lao Lu and Qi Lin also boarded the boat together. After the last box was delivered to the sand ship, Lao Lu asked someone to turn on the engine. Amidst a burst of loud noise, the sand ship began to move towards the dark underground. Drive deep into the river.

"Boy, don't look at the calmness of this dark river. In fact, there are monsters living under this water that are far scarier than the things you have encountered." Lao Lu grabbed the rudder of the boat with one hand, and took out a He lit the cigarette and took a deep breath.

"What's in this water? Mutated fish?" Qi Lin didn't doubt what Lao Lu said, but was a little curious.

"Not only. To be honest, I don't know what's in the water. In short, it's better to stay away from the ship's side—" Lao Lu said.

"Is there radiation in this water?" The energy-gathering vortex in Qi Lin's body suddenly moved, which made Qi Lin realize that the entire dark river was actually polluted, but the radiation was diluted by the water, so it was Not so obvious.

"Of course, the underground river is not just groundwater. If my guess is correct, the source of this underground river is likely to be on the surface, but we can't drive it out."

The sand ship was slowly moving forward in the middle of the dark river. Lao Lu's men were standing beside the box with weapons such as harpoons and shotguns. Above their heads were stalactites hanging upside down. , From time to time, drops of water dripped from above.

Qi Lin noticed that in some relatively narrow areas, all the stalactites above his head were broken. Judging from the traces on the fracture, they should have been broken by explosives.

"I'm not alone in this waterway. It took a lot of effort to open up this waterway." Lao Lu said with a cigarette in his mouth.

"How was this underground waterway discovered?"

"At the beginning, No. 906 shelter was going to be expanded, and I planned to continue digging in this direction, but I just dug into an underground river, and the river water was directly poured into the construction site, and a lot of people died-the consortium alliance was quite happy at first, after all, the water resources are so great. It was scarce, but later it was discovered that the river was polluted, and the cost of purification was too high, so the construction site that had turned into a lake was sealed up."

"As for later, certain forces focused on this dark river, bought it with money, re-excavated and explored, and finally found out several waterways in the dark river. Those of us who deliver goods, If you want to use these waterways, you have to pay a "toll" every month, but compared with the official taxes and fees, the toll is already very cheap." Lao Lu talked eloquently, and it can be seen that he is actually Is a very talkative person.

"What are you going to do with that monster's corpse?" Compared with the underground waterway, Qi Lin was more curious about what purpose Lao Lu bought the monster's corpse for.

"Anatomy, research, and then dispose of the corpse and sell it—those rich people like such collections." Old Lu replied casually.

Qi Lin suddenly realized that this is the real world, and the monster's corpse will not explode with serum. For people like them who can only fight and kill, the monster's corpse is just a piece of material other than the materials that can be used to process equipment. It's just a pile of rotten meat, but in the hands of an expert like Lao Lu, it can be processed into hideous monster specimens.

Such mutated biological specimens are very popular in the upper class, and the stronger the strength, the more ferocious the appearance, and the higher the rarity, the more expensive the mutated biological specimens are. If this monster is made into a specimen, it may be sold for More than [-] resource points.

……

"There are dangerous waters ahead, everyone be vigilant, I repeat, no one is allowed to approach the side of the ship, otherwise we will not save you if you are dragged into the water by something!"

After the sand ship had been driving for more than half an hour, Lao Lu suddenly stood up and said loudly.

Hearing this sentence, the guys guarding the goods all showed a nervous look, and held the weapons in their hands tighter.

"Dangerous waters?" Qi Lin looked at Lao Lu.

"It's the waters where mutant creatures are more active." Lao Lu replied.

Qi Lin didn't have any weapons on him. Chen He originally wanted to give him the 56-style triangular army thorn, but Qi Lin felt that Chen He needed weapons more than himself. After all, Chen He had to go back through the tunnel.

"Hold it. When you suddenly see something jumping out of the water, your first reaction is to hide. If you can't dodge, then stab it. Don't wrestle with them. Those things are stronger than bulls." Lao Lu took out a rusty harpoon from the cabin and threw it to Qi Lin.

"Bigger than a bull? Will this boat be overturned?" Qi Lin took the harpoon and asked casually.

"I haven't encountered anything that can overturn the ship yet, but maybe, it depends on luck." Lao Lu returned to the rudder, and the whole sand carrier began to speed up slowly.

With the dim lights on the boat, Qi Lin could see some black shadows flashing under the water from time to time, the largest of which was more than two meters long.

In the game of wasteland survival rules, Qi Lin once fought underwater with a mutant fat-headed fish more than four meters long, but now his strength in the real world is far stronger than then. As a fat fish, Qi Lin is confident that he can resolve the battle within ten seconds.
