Chapter 127 Chapter 127 Daily Undersea Update (2nd Update)…
To be honest, Lin Jianyuan doesn't actually need to wear a diving suit.
Because he neither knows how to dive nor is he really here to dive.
He only needs to put on the Seal of Regret to block out the water with a click.
But since we're here, let's have some ceremony.
Lin Jianyuan remained fully dressed and geared up, having his wife snap several cool photos of him from all angles before happily entering the water.
The Regret Seal is quite useful. Lin Jianyuan and his roommate held hands, sharing a large bubble.
The big bubble slowly sank under the paddling of Xieyu.
"It would be better if it were faster." Lin Jianyuan said.
"Won't it be uncomfortable?" My roommate paddled a little faster. "I saw on Little Red Potato that diving too deep can make you feel dizzy, chest tightness, and ear discomfort."
"Am I okay now?" Lin Jianyuan pinched his roommate's gallbladder and said gently, "Don't worry, baby. I'm in good health now."
"Okay. Then tell me immediately if you feel uncomfortable." The roommate came over and slightly tightened the intestinal tube wrapped around his waist.
Take him with you to dive deep into the water.
Contrary to what one might imagine, the so-called "cliff-like water level" of Xianlao Lake does not really drop from 2 meters to 300 meters in an instant.
The lake bottom is actually broken into several cliffs, a bit like stairs.
Each staircase is like a giant platform, dozens of meters long, wide, and high. Descending the stairs one by one is like stumbling into a giant's underwater garden.
The surroundings grew darker and darker, gradually transforming into an abyss where even light could not reach.
Clear water is shallow, black water is deep.
The Mark of Regret completely blocked the pressure from the deep water. The oxygen tank also provided sufficient oxygen, so Lin Jianyuan did not feel the slightest bit of suffocation.
In fact, you don’t even need to wear a diving mask.
Lin Jianyuan took off the blindfold and looked around with wide eyes.
Very quiet.
It was so dark around that visibility was very low - or rather, all I could see was darkness, so I had no idea how far I could see.
Because no matter how far you are, it is still dark when you look out.
The mobile terminal showed that they had dived 200 meters.
The limit of human freediving is about 200 meters. Any deeper and the body can no longer withstand the water pressure, especially hollow organs like the lungs and gastrointestinal tract.
The air in hollow organs will be severely squeezed, which will obstruct blood circulation and may even cause organ rupture in severe cases.
So theoretically speaking, the people you meet here are either dead or not human.
Oh no. Even a dead person is impossible.
A dead person would float. It's impossible for him to sink to a depth of 200 meters.
It can only be heresy.
S-rank humanoid heretic.
Alive?
Dead?
Lin Jianyuan: “.”
roommate:"."
A gray-faced man lay on the last huge stone step.
If Lin Jianyuan didn't have sharp vision and his roommate didn't rely on his eyes to see things, they wouldn't have noticed that there was a person lying there.
Both of them were silent for a moment.
My roommate said, "Baby, you go up first. I'll go get it."
Lin Jianyuan: "Wait a moment."
The roommate turned his head and waited obediently.
Lin Jianyuan said, "The last time Wang Yong came here was five years ago. If that high school student really jumped off the cliff because of the influence of this S-class beast, then..."
Has it been here for the full five years?
Lin Jianyuan thought about it and held his roommate's small duodenum.
"Baby, let's go together." Lin Jianyuan said, "Then tell me how you feel."
The roommate did as he was told.
At the bottom of the lake, which is 200 meters deep, the light on the surface seems as far away as outer space.
Everywhere I look, there is darkness.
Yet deep within the darkness, there is even darker darkness.
The deepest point of Xianlao Lake is 300 meters, but here it is only 200 meters. This is the last step before stepping into the abyss.
If you stand here and look up, you can vaguely see the light coming from the lake.
If we take one more step forward, it will be a completely dark abyss.
That "person" just lay there quietly.
Lying down on the edge of the last step.
It was motionless, its body covered in the mud from the lake bottom, making it impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
It lay just one step away from the abyss, and it seemed that just a little wind and wave would push it into the final abyss.
But there is no wind and no waves here.
Lin Jianyuan and his roommate held hands and swam towards it little by little.
There is no light in darkness.
My roommate said, “[Hopeless].”
Lin Jianyuan: "What?"
My roommate said, "It's Hopelessness. I feel it. Very faintly. It hides the mark. But the water carries its scent."
——I see no hope for the future.
This is the bottom of Xianlao Lake, 200 meters deep. One more step forward, and you'll plunge into the deepest, darkest abyss.
Never to be found again.
I want it to end, I want to be free.
But he didn't even have the strength to jump.
It lay silently at the bottom of the lake.
It's still alive.
It turned into a piece of wood covered with mud.
Its scent is blown away by the water flow, and the pollutants are squeezed by the heavy water body, overflowing slightly.
The wind brought the breath of hopelessness to the cliffs by the lake.
Just happened to encounter [guilt].
Just happened to be an emotionally unstable teenager.
Multiple factors are superimposed.
Pop.
The boy leaped.
My roommate asked, "Are you still fishing?"
Lin Jianyuan was silent for a moment, then said, "It's already been confined. I think we should just forget about it."
The fire crackled. A fish, skewered on wooden sticks, sat on the fire, its skin slightly charred, emitting an alluring roasted aroma.
The weather was really nice today. Lin Jianyuan sat by the barbecue grill with his roommates, munching on grilled fish while directing workers to plant flowers by the lake.
Every year, people die in Xianlao Lake. The local government regularly patrols the lake with lifeguards, but this doesn't stop people from enjoying the water.
Even because lifeguards will stop them, many people run to undeveloped areas with few people and secretly go into the water.
Success increased the mortality rate.
Through the director, Lin Jianyuan mobilized a large number of local flower growers to come here. They planted sunflowers, geraniums, philodendrons, and anything else that looked good and could be grown.
When the flower fields grow up, they will almost circle Xianlao Lake.
Of course, even with the flower fields and internet celebrity check-in areas blocking the way, it still can't stop some people from seeking death.
So he sent people to put up huge signboards in places suitable for launching into the water.
The sign reads:
"There are still 72 bodies that have not been found in Xianlao Lake."
Putting up such a sign will surely trigger a wave of discussion online.
No problem, let’s discuss it.
No one would be so compelled to go swimming in Xianlao Lake knowing that there were 72 pieces of slippery and tattered bodies sinking below.
No way. No way.
If that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it.
Respect and blessings.
Lin Jianyuan handed over the work of planting the flower fields to his subordinates and reached out to his roommate:
"Come on, honey, let's go to the popular tourist spots over there~"
Wang Yong has already gone back.
Otherwise, how could it be said that bringing Wang Yong in to work was the most correct decision Lin Jianyuan made after arriving at the administration?
——When Lin Jianyuan was shopping with his wife, Wang Yong took the initiative to offer to go back and write the detention record first.
What a chosen ox or horse that takes the initiative to go to the mill!
This side of Xianlao Lake is a popular tourist spot with a soft, sandy beach. The weather was beautiful today, with a clear blue sky. The autumn sun caressed my skin warmly.
The beach is bustling with people coming and going.
"Baby, I have a feeling..."
Lin Jianyuan said this while drinking the internet-famous "Xianlao Lake" bamboo tube milk tea.
My roommate held an exploding squid in one intestine, a "Xianlaohu" cultural popsicle in one intestine, glutinous rice chicken wings in one intestine, and lemon sugarcane juice in one intestine...
Like a dazzling bronze intestinal tree, he moved while eating, turned his "head" and asked, "Huh? What is it?"
Lin Jianyuan said: "【Flashback】."
Lin Jianyuan raised his eyes. His gaze was like a stage curtain being drawn aside.
A white-haired old lady appeared in the field of vision.
As if responding to his call, the old lady stood alone at the end of the beach.
Extract frames.
Extract frames.
The old lady appeared 50 meters away from him.
This time the memory is——
"drop."
"drop."
"drop."
A familiar voice I've heard somewhere.
It seems like a sound I hear often recently.
Extract frames.
Extract frames.
"drop."
"drop."
"drop--"
electric shock.
Lin Jianyuan opened his eyes wide.
There was a sharp pain in my chest.
"drop."
"drop."
"drop--"
Sizzle. Burn.
Press. Press.
"drop--"
The white-haired old lady stood in front of him, one step away.
Lin Jianyuan raised his hand to stop his roommate who wanted to step forward.
Time is like an infinitely stretched thread.
The old lady's dry lips moved, making a sound similar to "kan".
Lin Jianyuan: "See?"
He frowned and reached out to grab the old lady. "Explain clearly? Kān kán kǎn kàn?"
Lin Jianyuan stretched out his hand but grabbed nothing.
The old lady disappeared again.
The old lady disappeared, taking with her the roommate's memory of seeing her.
Lin Jianyuan looked pained, and his roommate immediately reacted: "Flash?"
Lin Jianyuan: "Well, this time it's kan." He scratched his head, "Or, can?"
The old lady Flash can't speak well and even mixes in English, hahaha.
My roommate was puzzled: "Virtual world, see?"
Lin Jianyuan: "Wait a moment."
Lin Jianyuan looked up at the end of the beach again, his eyes suddenly widening: "Come out! [Flashback]!"
Nothing happened.
However, the tourists passing by turned their heads and looked at him with a suspicious expression as if to say, "Are you crazy?"
Lin Jianyuan: “…”
His face changes from big to small.
No problem.
Anyway, he really is a certified mental patient!
Lin Jianyuan calmly faced the doubts of passers-by and secretly hid his toes in the soles of his shoes.
Lin Jianyuan returned to the management bureau and reported the clues unlocked by the old lady to the director.
After a discussion, everyone couldn't guess what the word "kan" after "virtual world" meant.
If we don't take foreign languages into consideration, kan has only 3 pronunciations.
Lin Jianyuan used the AI to search. There are only about thirty Chinese characters for the pronunciation of "kan".
Arrange and combine them.
The most likely words are:
"Read", "publish", "cut".
However, these three words, when put after "virtual world", are still confusing.
Lin Jianyuan: “…”
So annoying!!!
I hate squeezing toothpaste the most!!!
Unfortunately, he couldn't catch the old lady! Otherwise, he would have shaken the old lady's shoulders crazily and lifted her upside down to shake her!
You specified there is also .jpg!
accurate.
I am becoming increasingly anxious and unhappy.
Lin Jianyuan tried hard to control his emotions and returned home.
Home is a warm yellow. The moment he teleported home, Lin Jianyuan told himself: Don't think about it.
"Your Majesty!"
He twisted his body around with a smacking sound of joy.
The person in charge of guarding the house today is Butler No. 1 Nienile.
Lin Jianyuan took a deep breath and adjusted his mood - the corner of his eye inevitably swept across the corner of the wall where the sweeping and mopping robot base station with his 12-installment plan and 3 interest-free installments with government subsidies was originally placed.
Lin Jianyuan: “…###”
What kind of idiot would carry away the entire robot and base station?
It's over. It's been so long and there's still no news from the police station. They must have lost the item.
Lin Jianyuan took deep breath after deep breath, trying to calm down.
He bent down and extended his hand towards Nienile with a smile: "Nienile, what did you do at home today-"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!!!"
Nienile cried and threw herself into his palm.
"My shell is smashed!!! Woohoo my shell! My shell is broken and it won't grow back!!! King! My shell!!!"
Smell of gas.
Smell of gasoline.
A mixture of flammable and explosive smells that makes people crazy.
Lin Jianyuan opened his eyes wide and looked at the girl who threw herself limply into his hands, crying and showing him her bare back.
Bang--
The balloon in my chest exploded.
