My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Ma Tao glanced at the oxygen tank's pressure gauge and was secretly glad that the pressure was still sufficient. He was tied with a safety rope, so he was not worried about safety issues. So he decided to use this time to search nearby to see if there were any clues to other caves or ancient tombs.

At the same time, the people on the boat cheered after receiving Ma Tao's signal. They knew that the location of the dragon coffin had been found, and now they just needed to fish it out of the water. Everyone watched the crane start working with anticipation and excitement.

However, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to foreshadow something. But at this time, people were immersed in the joy of witnessing the birth of the dragon coffin, and not many people paid attention to this sudden change in weather.

The crane driver increased the horsepower to try to pull the ancient coffin out of the water, and Ma Tao, who was still in the water, felt an undercurrent. He looked back at the tight cargo rope and secretly expected: "If this ancient coffin really contains some secrets or treasures, I will be the first person to discover it!" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reveal a proud smile.

"It seems that if there is wealth and honor, I will be the first to bear the brunt!"

"Oh, it seems that the god of fate still favors me!"

"Jiang Sheng, if you hadn't stopped me yesterday, maybe we would have held a treasure and enjoyed the bliss of the world now!"

"Unfortunately, you are too stubborn and inflexible."

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless. Just go with peace of mind. I will remember to send you some paper money so that you can live comfortably in the other world!"

Ma Tao shook his head slightly and kept a certain distance from the dragon coffin.

Before going into the water, Chen Wenjin reminded him that he could go ashore after tying the cargo rope.

But at this moment, Ma Tao was curious.

He longed to find out what was hidden under this ancient coffin.

If he could find another treasure, he would be financially free for the rest of his life. Why would he need to join an archaeological team again?

Therefore, he disagreed with Chen Wenjin's instructions and the rules of the archaeological team.

Although the ancient coffin is heavy, it still seems powerless in front of modern lifting equipment.

As the horsepower of the crane increased, the ancient coffin slowly moved in the water.

Gradually, the coffin was slightly lifted up in the water.

Suddenly, a powerful undercurrent surged out from the bottom of the coffin.

Under the impact of the undercurrent, the coffin seems to be rising.

However, this undercurrent also makes the calm water surface become turbulent.

Before Ma Tao could rejoice, he felt a powerful suction force pulling him towards the dragon coffin.

He frowned, feeling a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

His intuition told him that he was about to face great danger.

Sure enough, as the coffin gradually rose, the undercurrent surging from under the coffin became more and more turbulent, and eventually formed a huge whirlpool in the water.

A huge whirlpool also emerged on the surface of the river.

Chen Wenjin cried out in surprise when she saw this.

"No, something happened!"

The archaeological team members also realized that something was wrong, and the team leader hurriedly walked to the crane driver and asked.

"Master, get the coffin out as soon as possible, increase your power, otherwise the complicated water conditions will make it more difficult to salvage it!"

At this time, Chen Wenjin couldn't help but stepped forward and said to the leader.

"Leader, maybe we should stop the salvage operation at this moment. Yesterday, Mr. Yin Yang warned us that moving the coffin rashly could endanger everyone."

"Moreover, according to scientific analysis, the ancient coffin is huge and has been submerged in the water for many years. Once it moves, it may cause the undercurrent in the river to shift, bringing unpredictable dangers!"

Although Chen Wenjin was skeptical about Mr. Yin Yang's words.

But the strange changes on the river surface made her alert.

However, the leader of the archaeological team disagreed with her words and said unhappily.

"Are you kidding me?"

"A mere whirlpool makes you back down?"

"If all archaeologists are like you, when will our country's archaeology make progress?"

"Even if the coffin is large and causes undercurrents, Ma Tao is equipped with oxygen tanks and safety ropes. We just need to pull him ashore in time. What is there to be afraid of? Don't you have experience in underwater operations? Don't you know this common sense?"

The leader shook his head and sighed, then turned to give instructions to the driver.

"Master, step up your game!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge splash suddenly appeared on the water surface. At the same time, a deafening explosion sounded.

"boom!"

"Wow!"

Everyone looked at the splashes on the water in astonishment and looked at each other.

"What happened?"

"I don't know. Did something explode in the water?"

"Are there still mines here?"

"It does sound like an explosion, but not that exaggerated!"

"Look! Isn't that Ma Tao's safety rope?"

With a cry of surprise, everyone looked towards the water.

The originally taut safety rope suddenly loosened and floated on the river surface, and the broken rope drifted weakly towards the shore.

"Why did Ma Tao's safety rope break? What happened to him?"

"Is Ma Tao in trouble? There's such a big whirlpool in the river now, will he be sucked in?"

Chen Wenjin looked at the safety rope on the river and recalled the warning from Mr. Yin Yang yesterday.

This coffin is pressed above the river bank. Moving it without permission will bring misfortune to anyone who touches it.

Today, the Yin-Yang master's predictions seem to be coming true one by one.

Is it true that this coffin cannot be moved?

Chen Wenjin felt dizzy when suddenly a cry for help came from the river.

"Help!"

"Sister Wenjin, save me, I'm Ma Tao!"

Hearing Ma Tao's cry for help, Chen Wenjin hurried to the boatman and spoke anxiously.

"Master, quickly drive the boat to rescue our team members!"

"If you don't save him, he's going to drown!"

However, the boatman looked at her with horror and responded, "What did you say?"

"Are you not mistaken?"

"Didn't you see the huge whirlpool on the river?"

"Rescue people? Aren't you asking me to die? No way, I won't go!"

Chen Wenjin suddenly felt desperate.

She once thought that as long as there was a boat, she would be rescued in time even if Ma Tao had an accident.

但现在看来，她错了.

These boatmen value their lives more than anyone else, and they are unwilling to leave the boat if there is something wrong with the river surface, let alone the current situation.

Dapeng also ran over, panting and shaking his head, saying, "Wenjin, no, these fishing boat masters all refuse to leave the boat. In this situation, it is almost impossible to get them to leave the boat."

Chen Wenjin looked at the river in despair, muttering to himself.

The sky suddenly roared. One moment it was clear, and the next moment it was covered with dark clouds. …

Afterwards, strong winds suddenly arose in the Yangtze River Basin. The winds came from all directions and seemed to be irregular at first, but after a while, these strong winds gathered on the surface of the river and formed a huge whirlwind.

At this moment, in addition to the huge whirlpool in the river, there was also a rare spectacle of a dragon sucking water appearing nearby.

It was as if a god was sucking water in the air, and the water column on the river was sucked into the sky.

Although we have learned about the natural phenomenon of dragon sucking water in elementary school textbooks.

But in reality, its appearance is still amazing.

Especially now, nine dragons absorbing water appear at the same time, the spectacular sight is shocking.

Around the whirlpool, nine water columns shot straight into the sky.

The dark clouds in the sky were accompanied by thunder, like a dragon's roar, as if there was an ancient real dragon tens of thousands of years old hiding in the darkness.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers, villagers, tourists and people who came here to see the place couldn't help but exclaim.

"The gods are angry! This is a sign of the wrath of God!"

"Dragons sucking water? Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen so many dragons sucking water, it's so rare!"

"This feels like the wrath of God. It's so terrifying!"

"Look, there seems to be a person in the whirlpool. Could he be drowning?"

"Oh my god, being caught in a whirlpool like that, can you still survive?"

At this time, villagers from Sanjiashan Village also gathered by the river to witness this rare natural wonder.

Because Zhang Hao returned from the river yesterday, the village chief has informed everyone of some of the circumstances.

Seeing the spectacle of Nine Dragons sucking water, the villagers couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"That Yin-Yang master is right. The coffin cannot be moved. If it is moved, it will anger the gods. Who can bear such anger?"

"If the gods get angry, our village is right next to the river. Will we be the first to suffer?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. Whoever moved the coffin will be held responsible, right?"

"What you said is wrong. I heard that the coffin is used to suppress the eye of the river. If it is moved, the dragon energy will be released and all of us will suffer!"

"Oh, what should we do? The archaeological team has done something like this, we can't let them just leave like that. What should we do if they just walk away?"

On the archaeological team's side, seeing the sudden strong winds, everyone began to realize the danger.

What's worse is that Ma Tao fell into the river. In such weather, almost no one could save him.

Not to mention small boats, even a large cruise ship would find it difficult to withstand such weather.

Everyone fell silent.

However, Dapeng shook his head and said excitedly: "Maybe there is still hope!"

When the archaeologists heard Dapeng's words, they asked in confusion, "Dapeng, what do you mean?"

Dapeng pointed to the other side of the river, where there was a bamboo raft with two figures vaguely appearing on it.

One is fat and the other is thin, and it is difficult to tell them apart with the naked eye.

But Chen Wenjin put down the telescope in his hand and said with certainty: "It's Mr. Yin Yang!"

The river was turbulent, with raging waves and waterspouts raging, affecting the river basin within dozens of kilometers. The waves were continuous and extremely dangerous.

The danger level in the Yangtze River Basin is imaginable. Ordinary people riding bamboo rafts or even large ships cannot withstand the impact of huge waves.

However, Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang appeared unusually steady standing on the bamboo raft.

The bamboo raft rises and falls with the waves but never capsizes, just like a leaf floating in the water, so relaxed and carefree!

Dapeng nodded, and said in shock and disbelief: "It's him!"

"Did you notice that he was paddling the bamboo raft with that fat guy on such a chaotic river, and he was not affected at all!"

"Although they haven't entered the backwater area yet, it's incredible that they can drive a bamboo raft on such a dangerous river. It completely subverts scientific principles!"

"Maybe he can rescue Ma Tao?"

Chen Wenjin picked up the telescope again and observed carefully, and found that it was exactly as Dapeng said.

Zhang Hao brought a fat man and drove a bamboo raft back and forth on the edge of the backwater, without being affected too much.

You have to know that the bamboo raft is small and light, and it is difficult to control in such turbulent water. If a person who is overweight sits on it, it will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of driving.

However, despite the turbulent river water, the bamboo raft seemed to be stuck to the surface of the river and remained stable.

Moreover, the bamboo raft itself is a very unstable structure. Anyone who can drive the raft to this extent is undoubtedly an expert among experts. Such skills have subverted everyone's cognition and worldview!
But at this moment, there was no time for everyone to be shocked or overthink. Someone had already shouted loudly in the direction of Zhang Hao.

"Mr. Yin Yang!"

In the distance, shouts were heard on the river surface. Although the roar of the raging waves was deafening, the shouts could still be heard.

The two men stared at Zhang Hao with anticipation, as if they saw hope of rescuing the drowning Ma Tao. They thought that if they could really rescue Ma Tao, they would have to express their deep gratitude to Zhang Hao.

At this moment, Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang were cruising on the river on a bamboo raft.

At first, Fatty Wang was frightened when he saw the spectacular sight of Nine Dragons sucking water, but after seeing Zhang Hao skillfully controlling the bamboo raft, he was completely impressed.

"Brother Zhang Hao, how long have you mastered this skill?" Fatty Wang asked curiously.

Zhang Hao smiled and thought to himself that this was actually a skill he had passively acquired and he didn't need to learn it at all.

Although this is a supplementary skill of corpse recovery, he was still a little unfamiliar with it the first time he used it.

But after a short period of adaptation, he can now control the bamboo raft with ease. He replied casually: "Why, you want to learn it too? Then you can try to practice driving a bamboo raft or a bamboo pole."

Fatty Wang thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "Only children make choices. Brother Zhang Hao, I want to learn both. Is that okay?"

Just as they finished speaking, they heard shouting from not far away.

Following the sound, I saw many people gathered on the shore.

They were wearing similar clothes to Chen Wenjin and were obviously part of the same team.

"It looks like they are from the archaeological team." Fatty Wang muttered suspiciously, and then asked, "What do they want us to do?"

Zhang Hao shook his head slightly, "Let's get closer and listen to what they want to say."

Fatty Wang turned to look at Zhang Hao, and then glanced at the Nine Dragons Absorbing Water and the Backwater Piles not far away, with a look of fear on his face, "Brother Zhang Hao, you don't want to go through that dangerous area, do you?"

Seeing that Zhang Hao seemed to have the same intention, Fatty Wang tried to dissuade him: "Brother, we don't have much relationship with the archaeological team, so there's no need to take the risk. Let's go back the way we came. We might die if we go through that area!"

Zhang Hao smiled and said to Fatty Wang, "What are you afraid of? We have a bamboo raft."

Fatty Wang almost screamed, "I'm afraid because it's a bamboo raft! A huge wave can break it apart!"

At this moment, the voice of the archaeological team on the shore came through a loud speaker. The voice was so loud that even people on the opposite side of the Yangtze River could hear it, completely drowning out the sound of waves and thunder.

"Mr. Yin Yang! We are from the archaeological team. Someone is drowning. Please help rescue him! We will definitely reward you handsomely!"

The sound was so loud that it was impossible for Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang to pretend not to hear it. (End of this chapter)
