Chapter 26 Twenty-five, the second note

It was the same piece of paper that I saw on the rocky beach before. It was all torn from our labor insurance work notes. The paper back then was not as good as it is now. The paper was thick, yellow and It's rough, and when you unfold it, there are also a few small words: enter the sinkhole. The four characters are extremely scribbled, so scribbled that I can barely distinguish them, obviously they were written extremely quickly.When I saw these words, my heart skipped a beat.What does the heart say?Into a sinkhole?Reflexively, he looked back at the sinkhole blocked by the iron fence. The sinkhole is not far away, and all the cables are gathered at the hole like the tentacles of an octopus, coiled into a ball, and the water flows into the hole among these cables.

Down this hole? I felt a little baffled, and touched my pocket again, and found that there was no second note except for the cigarette. I thought it was strange, who put it in. When I saw the note to be careful of Pei Qing earlier, I didn't pay attention at all, thinking it was Chen Luohu's disgusting trick, but now that I received this note again, I couldn't stop taking it seriously. At this time, Wang Sichuan and the others were all beside me. They could see clearly when I was touching the note.I knew I couldn't deal with this problem alone, so I handed the note to Wang Sichuan and the others to let them see what was going on together.

Wang Sichuan took a breath when he saw it, and said that this was a hint to us, who the hell gave it to us, and why did he do it this way?Are there enemy agents in our team? When several people heard it, they all felt that it made sense, otherwise there would be no need to pass a small note to tell us this, Wang Sichuan became excited and said, comrades, we have a chance to make meritorious deeds, it seems that there must be something strange in this sinkhole, We can’t let the enemy agents know, so we entrust this task to us in this way. This is the trust of those comrades in us. Come on, without further ado, we will go down the hole immediately.

I hurriedly stopped and said wait a minute, this matter is too strange, we have to think long term.Besides, I don't know who put this note in my pocket.Let's go to the entrance of the cave to have a look first, don't decide so quickly whether to go down or not. What I said also makes sense, Wang Sichuan nodded and said yes, he actually meant the same thing.So he picked up the flashlight and walked towards the entrance of the cave. To be honest, I didn’t look at the hole carefully. I took a look when I came up, and I felt that the surroundings of the sinkhole were extremely slippery, so I didn’t dare to look closer. Only half the diameter of the hole remained, and it was pitch black below, with gusts of cold wind.

Because of the solid exam-oriented education, when I saw this hole, I was able to imagine what it looked like inside. It may not be very suitable to describe this hole as a sinkhole, because this hole is not on the surface, but the principle is the same, it must be the edge of the water. The vertical fissures are eroded out. I don’t know how deep it is. If the depth exceeds a certain level, after the surface water penetrates for a certain distance, the sinkhole will develop along the inclination direction of the rock layer or the inclination of the joints. Sinkholes developed in horizontal strata descend step by step like steps.In strata with many joints, the form of zigzag loops will be formed.The sinkhole here is a kind of hole in a hole. The most likely result of development is that it will eventually enter the capillary cracks and become groundwater. Of course, there may be another geological structural crack or another deeper underground river tributary. .

The engineers inspected here just now still have safety locks and some reinforcement equipment, and we can go down to a certain depth smoothly.Wang Sichuan said he was excited just now, but now he is a little hesitant when he sees the situation of the cave. After all, he is engaged in geological exploration, and he still has the concept of safety. Visibility was poor due to intense water splashes below. I asked Wang Sichuan what to do, Wang Sichuan said that he couldn't see anything from looking at it like this, and he wanted to go down to see the situation, the deputy squad leader immediately told him to go, Wang Sichuan stopped him, saying that I am different from that boy Pei Qing, I am engaged in geological prospecting, and cave climbing is my specialty. My climbing is more suitable than yours, so don't argue.

At this time, my brain also became hot, and I said to Wang Sichuan, don't be a **** individual heroism, the note was stuffed in my pocket, and it is appropriate for me to do this. Pushing and pushing like this, in fact, I am most annoyed by this kind of thing, but at that time revolutionary films were made like this, we all learned it, but at the end it was decided that I should go down, because Wang Sichuan was too big, and a few soldiers were there Pulling the rope from above might not be able to hold him. However, after I made up my mind, I looked at the deep hole, but regretted it a bit. Playing the vanguard is really not my strong point, and at this point, I have to bite the bullet anyway.

We had caving equipment before, but we threw them away when we were escaping from the flood. At that time, we threw away everything except guns. Fortunately, we still have the packages of those people from before. We sorted out the equipment and I took it with us. Headlights, this is my least favorite piece of equipment, it burns my forehead and affects my thinking. Then I untied the rope, hit a pulley buckle, and I climbed over the iron fence, stepped on those cables, and slid down the sinkhole.Because of the splash of water, I couldn't see the wall of the cave under the cable. The space here was very narrow at the beginning. After I went down for a while, I heard the sound of rattling. When the headlights shone down, I saw a shelf with a machine on it deep under my feet. I was speculating, because I was just a black shadow, and then the people above continued to hang me down slowly. I turned my head to avoid the splash, but I quickly turned into a cold soaked chicken.

After arriving here, I don’t know how many times I’ve been drowned. I’m a little used to it. I went down, about eight meters down, and my headlight hit a rusty iron plate hanging on the cable. I glanced at it. , which read: Station-0384-8 line, followed by unintelligible Japanese, I don't know what it means. At this time, my ears were full of the sound of water. I heard someone talking on the top but couldn’t hear clearly, so I asked them to continue lowering. After the rope stopped for a few times, I lowered it for a few meters, and I could see the machine clearly. Obviously, during the inspection just now, the engineering soldiers also came here, and there are many traces of limestone peeling off.

This must be a generator. It is mounted on an iron frame. The iron frame is horizontal in the hole, like a barrier, sealing the sinkhole. Through the gap between the iron bars and the iron bars, you can see the darkness below. Don't know how deep.On the iron frame, there is another rusty signboard: No entry allowed. I went down bit by bit, and finally landed on the iron frame. The iron frame let out a disturbing groan, and slid down for a while, but luckily it stopped immediately. The flake billboard instantly shattered and leaked through the gap. I was sweating a little, and I stomped my foot down again, and the whole shelf groaned again, but the sound clearly made people feel that the strength of the whole shelf was still enough, so I put the weight of my whole body down with confidence.

The generator is covered with a layer of lime, which has scabbed over. This is a motor that uses water to generate electricity, and the blades are also covered with lime, which can rotate slowly when it is hit by the water.I didn't know much about this thing, and I didn't study it, so I walked around carefully. Behind the machine, I saw that between the iron bars under my feet, one of the iron bars was broken, revealing a space that could accommodate A gap through which one passes. I squatted down and took a photo with the flashlight, and found that at a distance of more than ten meters below, it seemed that the slope of the hole was no longer straight, and there was a stepped slope, which continued to go down. I thought it was great, it was much easier to fall, and even if I fell, it would not be too serious, so I first pulled the rope to let the people on it down a bit, then squatted down to the gap, and carefully faced down according to go. When I squatted close to the iron shelf, I could smell a strong smell, like some kind of chemical.I covered my nose and looked closer. I saw a layer of barbed wire wrapped around the iron shelf. Now the barbed wire has also been torn open. Obviously something has passed through here.But the current gap must be too small for Wang Sichuan. I yelled at the top a few times and asked them to throw down the pliers. Soon, a pair of wire cutters slid down the rope. I took it and reached down to cut the barbed wire one by one. It is really hard to do this at such an angle. After a few minutes, I felt my back cramp. I finally cut them off, and I had to reach down with my hands to pull them out one by one.Finally, I felt that I was almost done, so I leaned my upper body down and looked around with a headlight to see if there was any possibility of stabbing someone. The barbed wire under the iron frame can only be described as dense. In the darkness, I turned my head, and at this moment, I saw a large mass of hair deep in the barbed wire.
