Chapter 94 Petal Fish

A few of us sat by the river and drank some water and took a rest.

Inadvertently, I discovered some fish swimming in the river. These fish are not big, almost two or three centimeters long, but they look very beautiful. They have colorful patterns, and their caudal and dorsal fins are very long and flowing.

I reached out to catch it curiously, but I didn't expect that this kind of fish would not hide at all. I even opened my mouth and took a bite at my finger. Fortunately, these fish had no teeth and felt nothing when they bite them on my hands.

I couldn't tell that this little guy was quite fierce. I found it interesting and reached out and picked up one. The little fish stirred my palm a few times, then fled into the water again.

Soon I discovered a stranger phenomenon. I actually saw a bunch of such small fish swimming in the river, yes, just a bunch!

These little fish are connected heads and tails. I looked closer and then I was surprised to find that the fish behind was biting the tail of the fish in front!

I thought this matter was very new, so I called Yuanxiao and Uncle Er to come and see it. After seeing it, the two people couldn't help but be amazed.

Anado also came over and laughed when he saw it. She told us that because this fish is very beautiful, it is called petal fish in them. This fish has a very strange characteristic, that is, once they are hungry, if they cannot find food, they will bite the tails of other fish, so we can see a series of fish that are connected to their heads and tails.

Annaduo also told us that because the fins of this petal fish are very wide, they have strong swimming ability. How strong are they? As long as the water flows are not too fast, the petal fish can flow upstream in the river and it will not be too difficult. However, according to the habits of this fish, they generally look for places with wider waters to continue growing. Annaduo told us that although this fish is not large after adulthood, its body length is at least twice as big as it is now. After they become sexually mature, they will return to the dark hole or underground to spawn and reproduce, and repeat.

According to Anado, in front of this small river, there should be a larger area of ​​water, perhaps a big river, or a lake.

Annaduo said this, which made us very interested. Generally speaking, the ancient ancestors did not have the technical level of building large-scale water conservancy projects, so more often, they would choose to live by water. Therefore, we instinctively believe that if the terrain in front is flat and there are larger water areas, it is very likely that it will be the gathering place for the real ancient ancestors.

In addition, Anaduo told us that this petal fish would choose to lay eggs in dark caves or underground, but we did not find any adult fish here, which means that the water in front is connected to such a place. A water connecting the caves may even have underground rivers. Such speculation has given us infinite imagination and infer many possibilities.

Therefore, we decided to move along this small river and perhaps have unexpected gains.

As several people walked forward, I looked back and looked behind, "Where will the source of this small river be?"

Uncle Er also turned his head and looked at it and said, "Actually it's very simple. On the other side of this ridge is the river valley. Water will seep into the underground on both sides to form groundwater. Generally speaking, there will be many tiny gaps inside the mountain, so the groundwater level in the mountains on both sides will be higher than the water surface of the valley because of the principle of siphon. When the groundwater at a certain location is saturated, such a small river will appear on this side of the ridge."

After hearing my second uncle's words, I kept nodding. I was completely convinced of my second uncle's knowledge, and I almost took a small book to take notes!

Uncle Er continued: "On this side of the ridge, there may be many groundwater outflows, and these small rivers will definitely converge in a low-lying place. Therefore, I speculate that there is little possibility of a large river in front of you, but it is very likely that it will be a lake with a large area."

Yuanxiao smacked her lips and said, "That's good! There must be a lot of fish in the lake. We can make some food. It's been several days since we saw meat!"

I couldn't help but laugh when I looked at Lanxiao. Lanxiao is a person who is full of meat. It has been vegetarian for a few days, which makes this kid very hard. "Lanxiao, don't brag first, you can catch the fish, then you can talk about it."

Yuanxiao slapped her chest and said, "What's the matter? Don't forget that in the underground river of Qilian Mountains, my buddy used wooden hooks to catch you!"

"Yes!" I sneered, "There is also a human-faced pig that I caught together. Not only did I not eat the adult fish, but I almost got eaten by the fish!"

"Haha," Yuanxiao smiled, "This means that my buddy is so good!" I looked at Yuanxiao, remembering the scene when he sacrificed his life to save him. My heart suddenly felt warm and I patted him on his shoulder, "Well, I believe you!"

Yuanxiao nodded with a smile, "Just make a letter, tell me what flavor you want to eat, grilled fish or blanched fish soup?"

"Braised!" I said lightly.

"Hong, uncle!" Yuanxiao cursed, "You deliberately made things difficult for me, right?"

As we were talking, suddenly a loud "shush" sound came from the front. This sound made us stunned.

Yuanxiao looked at my second uncle and said, "Uncle II, don't you say there is a very likely low-lying place in front, and there is a big lake in the low-lying place? The lake water in this mountain should not be calm and smooth as a mirror, but do you always listen to this sound, how about the lake water dancing?"

"Go!" Uncle Er glared at Yuanxiao, but he seemed very surprised. "What I just said was just speculation. Maybe there was a certain drop in the low-lying area in front due to the drop of the water surface and other reasons, and there was nothing strange about some water sounds."

Despite saying this, we still speeded up and everyone wanted to find out quickly.

After we walked around a cluster of dense trees, we couldn't help but stop because the scene in front of us was shocked!

A huge deep pit appeared in front of us. Its diameter should be quite large when viewed, and due to the fog, we could not see the opposite.

A few of us walked slowly towards the edge of the giant pit. When we looked down carefully, we found that the walls of the giant pit were steep and very deep. It is roughly estimated that its depth is definitely more than 200 meters. The vegetation below is dense, and with the diffuse fog, we could not see the bottom of the pit at all.

The small river we were chasing all the way down from here, turning into a small waterfall and falling into a giant pit! And not only this small river flows into it, but also three or four small rivers have also turned into small waterfalls and fall into the pit. After thousands of years of erosion, the river water carved a groove on the rocks at the edge of the giant pit. Some river water that fell into the pit flowed into the groove again and spread down to the depths of the giant pit.

Uncle Er looked at the small rivers surrounding him that were circulating into the huge pit, and couldn't help but frown. Anaduo asked from the side: "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Uncle Er shook his head gently, and did not speak, but looked at Wen Mo, and then said, "Wen Mo, will these small rivers that are coming into...?"

Uncle II didn't finish speaking. But it seemed that Wen Mo understood what Uncle II wanted to ask. Looking ahead, we looked at us curiously, but we didn't bother us.

Wen Mo was silent for a while and then began to walk along the edge of the giant pit. I wanted to stop him, but at this time, the second uncle also turned to us and said, "You stay here, we will come back soon!" After that, he walked towards the other side of the giant pit.

The three of us stood there in a daze, which was inexplicable. But we were helpless.

Annaduo looked into the giant pit, "Are we going here?"

I shrugged, "It's very likely!"

We waited for a while, but we didn't see the second uncle and Wenmo coming back. Yuanxiao said, "They won't dump the three of us, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" I immediately denied the Lantern Festival. "They must have their purpose."

About ten minutes later, Wen Mo walked back first, and soon Uncle Er's figure appeared from the fog on one side.

We immediately surrounded us. Uncle Er didn't look at us, but asked Wen Mo: "How many are you found there?"

Wen Mo compared five fingers, and the second uncle's face changed as soon as he saw it. "I have four!" Uncle Er seemed extremely shocked, "My God, can the records in the overall Feng Shui of the Eight Gate Heavens really be found in reality?"

"What does it mean?" I couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about? Is there any Feng Shui thing in it?"

Before the second uncle could answer me, Wen Mo said again: "Actually, it is not as you think. Some of these small rivers are not natural, but artificially excavated!"

After hearing Wen Mo's words, Uncle Er was stunned, "Are you talking about the artificial factors in this pattern?"

Wen Mo nodded gently. Uncle Er didn't look disappointed, but let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, I waved my hand to them and asked, "Uncle Second, Wen Mo, please consider our feelings. What did you mean just now?"

The second uncle sighed, pointed to the huge pit in front of him and said, "Look at the front?"

"What's the point of seeing this?" Yuanxiao hesitated and said, "There is a big pit ahead, this is the legendary sinkhole!"

Uncle Er nodded, "It's true that this is a sinkhole, but I'm not referring to this, but a few small rivers flowing into the sinkhole."

"Yes," I nodded and said, "Yes, we saw it! What does this mean?"

Uncle Er looked at me and said, "In fact, in the ancient Feng Shui books that have been passed down since ancient times, eight most ideal Feng Shui situations have been mentioned. These eight Feng Shui situations are called by later generations: the eight heavenly Feng Shui situation."
