#4678 - Abnormal situations

"What do you think of this place?" Ning Che asked.

In her opinion, this place seemed unremarkable.

Lin Yi stood in place, gazing around, and after seeing that large rock, he became even more certain of his idea.

"The problem might be around this large rock. Let's take a good look."

The four of them began to investigate again.

In fact, they had already been here several times in the previous two days, but they hadn't meticulously examined the large rock where Sapkins fished.

At this moment, all four of them focused their attention on that large rock, carefully inspecting its surroundings.

However, after two hours, they still hadn't found anything.

"I don't think we can find anything searching like this. We need to get some detection equipment," Ning Che said.

In Ning Che's opinion, there might be a problem somewhere, but these problems were difficult to discern with the naked eye and required professional equipment.

This idea was also approved by Cai Dongyi and Sheng Wenjing.

After the three of them finished discussing, their eyes subconsciously turned to Lin Yi, wanting to hear his opinion.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yi was sitting on that large rock, not saying a word for a long time.

Lin Yi got off the large rock and, without waiting for Ning Che to ask, said:

"Help me watch around. I'll go down and take a look."

"Go down?"

Hearing what Lin Yi said, the three of them naturally looked at the river.

"Do you think that strange thing is hidden below?"

"It's not just that strange thing, the entrance might also be below, but this is just my guess. I don't know what it's really like," Lin Yi said.

"If I go down and really don't find anything, I'll accept it. We can still get detection equipment then."

"I'll go down with you," Ning Che said.

"No need. Your night vision isn't as good as mine. Going down won't help. Just help me watch here."

"Then be careful."

"Okay."

After determining the tasks, the four of them split up.

Lin Yi adjusted his clothes, trying to reduce buoyancy, and then entered the water.

The light underwater was even dimmer. Lin Yi took out a flashlight, trying to illuminate the surrounding area.

The river wasn't deep, about two meters or so, which wasn't difficult for Lin Yi.

But the surrounding situation didn't seem to have any problems, at least nothing visible to the naked eye.

Just like Ning Che said, it was a bit difficult to find those suspicious things with the naked eye. They needed equipment.

But this time down, he wasn't just looking for the so-called magical substance, but also for the entrance.

But thinking about it carefully, if there really was an entrance here, the river would also backflow, so the possibility of its existence wasn't high.

About two minutes later, Lin Yi felt a slight shortness of breath and prepared to surface for air.

But just then, he discovered something strange.

A dead fish!

This caught Lin Yi's attention.

Under normal circumstances, a dead fish should float, but now it was sinking. This wasn't normal, or Newton would jump up.

Lin Yi swam towards the dead fish, picked it up, and surfaced.

Ning Che reached out to pull Lin Yi, and found that he was holding a dead fish in his hand.

"What's this?"

"A dead fish I found underwater."

"Why pick up a dead fish? Now…"

Halfway through speaking, Ning Che also realized something was wrong.

"A dead fish found underwater? Shouldn't dead fish float?"

"I thought it was strange too, so I picked the fish up."

Lin Yi took off his clothes, trying to wring them dry.

"Let's dissect it and see what the problem is."

As Lin Yi said, Ning Che did as she was told, took out a dagger, and cut open the fish's belly.

The internal organs inside were already rotten, emitting a corrosive stench.

But for the few of them, this wasn't much. It was just routine.

"Huh? What's this?"

Just as she was cleaning out the internal organs, she saw a pebble the size of a fingernail inside.

Ning Che picked it up, and her expression instantly changed.

"So heavy!"

"Heavy?"

Lin Yi took the small stone over and found that it was like a small iron ball. This weight wasn't something a small stone could have. The density must have reached an astonishing level.

Afterwards, Cai Dongyi and Sheng Wenjing both experienced it, and the latter said:

"The fact that this dead fish could sink to the bottom of the river should be related to this thing."

"But this small stone is obviously abnormal," Ning Che said:

"Even if it's ore, it doesn't seem to be this heavy. The density is too high."

"Could it be some unknown radioactive substance? We just don't know yet, like the ore and mysterious metal we found before?" Sheng Wenjing said.

"It's probably not radioactive," Lin Yi said:

"If it really was, this place wouldn't be so harmonious. At least the ecology in the river would be affected. After so many years, this place has been peaceful, which also proves from the side that this stone actually wouldn't have much of a problem, it's just a bit heavy."

Cai Dongyi also agreed with Lin Yi's statement: "We can send this thing back for testing. Maybe there will be new discoveries."

"This matter isn't urgent. Let's figure out the situation here first."

In the dark, 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 haven't completely explored it yet. I saw this thing when I came up for air."

Ning Che looked at the dead fish on the ground and then looked at the stone in her hand.

"Although we haven't found any clues, this stone could become evidence that there might be a problem with this place."

"Sister Ning, could there be such a possibility," Sheng Wenjing said:

"Maybe a child, or someone, found this thing somewhere, and then threw it into the river where it was swallowed by a fish, and then it died."

Before Ning Che could answer, Cai Dongyi spoke.

"There is this possibility, but there is also another possibility: this fish ate this stone somewhere below and then died."

Ning Che looked at Cai Dongyi, "So you mean that there might be a magical place underwater, and this place might be the entrance."

"Yes!"
