“Ah~~~”
As a result, it was not until the four-member escape team led by Yin Yichen ran into Lu Xuan and Taylor, who were also standing naked changing clothes, that these people stopped and started shouting.
The two pairs of people met each other frankly in the cave.
However, the scene was quite embarrassing at one point.
"You...why are you naked..."
Miss Yin didn't seem to care whether Lu Xuan had seen her naked or not. Instead, she started to "blame" him.
"Hey, Miss, didn't we agree that you two would bathe in the lake and we would come back to change clothes? Why did you come here and... wear nothing..."
Lu Xuan glanced at the four girls and was speechless.
But I have to admit that the bodies of these people in front of me are really hot.
"Sister Mengyao, Sister Keyin, Sister Yichen...clothes...clothes..."
Fortunately, there was one sensible person among the four. Seeing the other three running away in a hurry without wearing anything, Aphrodite became the calmest one among the four and arrived last. She also picked up the spare clothes of the few people that Shen Keyin left by the lake.
When Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin saw Aphrodite, they looked as if they had seen a savior. They grabbed two pieces of clothes and put them on, not caring whether they fit or whether they were their own clothes. Anyway, it was better than being naked.
"Hey, why don't you consider putting some clothes on and explaining to me why you're like this?"
Lu Xuan and Taylor were quite quick and put on their shorts in a blink of an eye. As for their upper bodies, it was reasonable for men to show off their muscles occasionally.
“Oh~”
Seeing Lu Xuan putting on his pants, Miss Yin seemed a little disappointed. She muttered "Oh" and then turned slowly to ask Aphrodite for a piece of clothing and a pair of underwear.
When Yin Yichen turned around, Lu Xuan accidentally glanced at her buttocks. Looking at the tall and perky little buttocks, Lu Xuan couldn't help but be dazed for a second, and then quickly turned his face away. After all, there were so many people watching at the moment, and as a "team leader", he had to pay some attention to his image.
"Um... what's going on with you guys? Did you see a devil, or a sea monster?"
Seeing that these six people were fiddling around and finally returned to normal, Lu Xuan yawned and asked casually.
"Yes, yes, yes! Sea monster, it's a sea monster..."
"No, it should be the lake monster, the Loch Ness Monster, no! It should be called the backyard lake monster."
When Shen Keyin heard Lu Xuan say the word "sea monster", she stared with wide eyes and nodded repeatedly, and Yin Yichen next to her did not forget to add a sentence.
"Lake monster? Water monster? Are you all right? Are you hallucinating because you're tired?"
Lu Xuan naturally didn't believe it at all. He had only seen the lake in his own home for a few days. He had been on the island for two months. How could a lake monster appear in the backyard out of nowhere?
"Really, really, go and have a look."
Shen Keyin was afraid that Lu Xuan wouldn't believe her, so she made way and pointed in the direction of the lake behind.
"Mengyao, what's going on?"
Lu Xuan took Taylor towards the lake and asked Leng Mengyao, who was the most rational.
Leng Mengyao calmed down a little at this time, and recalled the scene he saw in the lake just now. It seemed... he just saw bubbles. As for the lake monster, it was completely influenced by Shen Keyin. In a panic, he followed the two women and ran away.
"This...we saw a lot of bubbles coming out of the lake."
After calming down, Leng Mengyao told Lu Xuan what he had seen.
"bubble?"
Lu Xuan and Taylor looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces, and they couldn't help but quicken their pace.
A few people returned to the lakeside and stopped to look. Sure enough, white bubbles were still floating out from the center of the lake.
"The bubbles seem to be smaller. The ones just now were even bigger."
As the first person to discover the bubbles in the lake, Shen Keyin quickly described to Lu Xuan and Taylor the scene when she first discovered the bubbles.
"Taylor, what do you think?"
Lu Xuan was naturally confused when he saw the bubbles that appeared inexplicably, so he had to pin his hopes on Taylor.
"Generally speaking, the most likely reason for bubbles in rivers or lakes is that plants and plankton in the water produce oxygen and carbon dioxide during their growth and metabolism. These gases are released in the form of bubbles, creating the bubbling phenomenon. However, we don't seem to have a large number of plants or plankton in our lake..."
Taylor thought about it carefully and put forward a hypothesis, but he rejected it himself.
"Where did these bubbles come from? They're still pretty cute now. Look, look...it seems like there are more of them now..."
Yin Yichen now likes this strange scene more and more, and seems to have forgotten the embarrassing scene when she was running for her life with her bare chest just now.
"Another possibility is that as summer temperatures rise, the dissolved oxygen content in the water decreases, and dissolved gases such as ammonia may be released from the water, forming bubbles. However, the temperature on our island doesn't seem to have risen recently... There hasn't been much change."
Taylor offered another explanation, but he rejected it again.
"Ah, don't think too much. Just dive down and investigate, and you'll find out everything."
Yin Yichen was quite bold. Not only was she not afraid at this moment, but she was also thinking of diving into the water to investigate.
"Yichen, don't do anything rash, what if something gets dangerous?"
Leng Mengyao grabbed the girl. The situation was unclear at the moment, so Leng Mengyao naturally would not let the girl do whatever she wanted.
"As for the third possibility, it's geothermal activity at the bottom of the lake. This phenomenon is not uncommon in nature. One of the most famous examples is the Boiling Lake of Dominica on the island of Dominica in the Caribbean Sea. Circular vents at the bottom of the lake spew out gases like carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrochloric acid, and hydrogen sulfide. During eruptions, the lake water forms columns 2-3 meters high, creating a spectacular sight. This phenomenon has also been observed at Lake San Musk in Texas, USA... By the way, is the water temperature of this lake relatively high?"
Taylor chattered on for a long time before finally raising a crucial question.
"Yes, yes, yes, the water temperature of this lake is very comfortable, but not that high. Anyway, it is warmer than the sea water, so it is very comfortable to take a bath in it."
Hearing Taylor's question, Shen Keyin and Yin Yichen nodded repeatedly.
Lu Xuan also knew very well that one of the important reasons why the girls were so keen on taking a bath in this lake was that the water temperature of this lake was very comfortable.
Could it be that... there is a hot spring under our lake?
