Name:Nether Sea Author:Qi Lian
I never thought that there would be a sea beneath the Wild Mountain, because that's impossible!

Wild Mountain spans the three nations' borders, and is surrounded by a large river basin. It's not rare for there to be a hidden river underground, but if there's a sea, then forget about me, I'm afraid no one would dare believe it.

But Charles said with confidence, even if I have a thousand questions, I can only continue to listen to him.

They advanced underground and arrived at the deepest part of the ground. To the drilling teams, the discovery of the Kobemaru was extremely shocking, because the Kobemaru had disappeared in Jiangxi Province, so how could they appear underground again?

When they arrived at the Kobemaru, the other members of the drilling team had already gathered. However, everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them, because behind the Kobemaru, there was actually a huge black ocean that stretched as far as the eye could see.

What shocked them even more was that the bow of the Kobemaru was actually facing away from the black ocean. This showed that the Japanese had piloted the Kobemaru to sea and they had even successfully returned.

What was at the end of the black ocean? Where does the end of the end lead to?

Why did the Japanese bother to do so much?

Small bombers must have been used to fly across the ocean, but in the end they were definitely unsuccessful. What was the reason for their failure?

Was the migration of the White Kingdom underground related to this black ocean?

Was the resurrection of the dead also related to this black sea?

No one knew, but the people from the drilling team were willing to search for the answer. They named the ocean beneath them Nether Sea and decided to cross the ocean to reach the end of the Nether Sea to see what exactly was at the end of it.

This decision was extremely crazy, but curiosity had already occupied everyone's heart, even Chen Yihuo and Charles who had been wanting to escape were attracted.

The upper echelons of the drilling team decided to leave 10 people behind to guard the Kobemaru to wait for news or rescue. If there were any problems, at least these 10 people could report everything to the higher ups, while the rest could all go out to sea.

The secret behind the end of Nether Sea was definitely related to the resurrection after death. Chen Yihuo was an outsider, he could not follow the group to enter, and could only wait in his original spot, but could not follow after being injured. Charles voluntarily requested to stay behind, and the other seven people were left behind for various reasons.

But once they left, they stayed at the edge of the Nether Sea for an entire ten days. The people who were heading towards the Nether Sea did not return, nor did they send out any news, as if they had disappeared into the vast universe.

After seven days, a rubber dinghy came back, but there was only one person on the boat, and that was Yang Qi. Other than Yang Qi, a hundred people had entered the Nether Sea, all of them lost contact with each other, and no one knew whether they were dead or alive.

Could it be that the end of Nether Sea was a hell? Don't even think about coming back alive?

Amongst the ten people that were left to guard, Chen Yihuo had an intention of retreating, but the other seven people decided to go deeper into the Nether Sea to find out the truth, and their opinions diverged. In the end, the other seven people also set off, but like before, they never returned.

There were only four people left in the dark underground area. Three of them had wanted to leave a long time ago while the other one was unconscious and heavily injured.

Chen Yihuo said: "If only the three of us were to leave this place alive, we would definitely be caught and interrogated about what is happening underground."

Zhu Haiming said: "I do not plan to spread this matter, and I will not come back to Wild Mountain again in the future."

Charles gritted his teeth: "There are three people waiting for us at the exit, and they will catch us once we leave, there's a Chinese legend about a leopard cat replacing the crown prince. If we become the guards at the top, then we won't know anything about what is happening underground, and no one will make things difficult for us."

Zhu Haiming asked: "How do I trade this for a crown prince?"

Chen Yihuo's voice trembled: "You're saying we should kill them?"

Charles said: "Only by killing them will no one know about us."

Chen Yihuo frowned, "What if there is someone at the end of the Nether Sea who can return alive?"

Everyone immediately turned their gazes towards Yang Qi, wanting to ask what exactly happened at the end of Yang Qi's Nether Sea and why he was the only one to return alive.

Unfortunately, Yang Qi was heavily injured and had been in a coma the entire time, so Zhu Haiming asked again, "What about this person? Should I take him away? "

Charles clenched his teeth and said: "Only he knows what is going on at the end of the Nether Sea, we must bring him and ask him about the situation. As for whether anyone else will come back? It would be better if we blow up the escape route, so that no one outside can even think of entering. Even if there are any survivors inside, they cannot even dream of returning! "

Under Charles's lead, Zhu Haiming and Chen Yihuo both agreed to this suggestion. They carried the unconscious Yang Qi back to their original path, and in order to seal the exit, on their way here, they used the remaining materials on their way here to build a stone wall to seal the exit. And just to be safe, they even purposefully laid a special mine for the Japanese under the ground.

Then, they started to use explosives to blow up all the entrances. They blocked the way in and also blew up the only exit, causing Zhu Yingqiong and I to think that the stone walls and the explosive exit were all done by the Japanese.

After they came out, they killed the people they were guarding, turned into the ones they were guarding, then left the Wild Mountain. However, on the boat, the unconscious Yang Qi suddenly disappeared.

After searching for a while without any news, they left the Wild Mountain and each of them swore not to reveal the secrets of the Wild Mountain. If they were found by the upper echelons of the drilling teams, they could only say that they were people left behind, and that they knew nothing about the matters underground.

This is the version of the Drilling Team Two that Charles told me about in 1976.

I don't know if what Charles said was true or false, but I feel that Charles must still be hiding something very important from us, it definitely isn't as simple as he described it to be. Furthermore, after they left the Wild Mountain, something else must have definitely happened as well, but since Charles made up such a story to tell me, even if I asked again, he would not speak the truth.

But there were a few things I could be certain that Charles did not lie to me, such as the Nether Sea underground, the story of a leopard changing for a crown prince should exist, and as for that person called Yang Qi, I am even more curious about him. From Charles's tone, I can roughly guess that this Yang Qi should be someone who is exactly the same as me.

But who was he? Why was I like him, and what did I have to do with him?

Other than these, Charles still had a lot of other questions that he had not explained in one go. For example, the bombers, the contents of the tapes, and the secrets of the Kobemaru. He must have carefully studied these 1976 Drilling Team Two, but Charles did not explain in detail to me.

This half-truths story had too much water!

I hesitated for a moment before asking Charles, "Since you have already reached the edge of Nether Sea, why do you still need a map for?"

Charles said: "When we came out that year, many of the tunnels were blasted to pieces by us, and now there's no way out, I need that map to indicate the route to Nether Sea."

I said in realization, "So your goal is to find your Nether Sea and then head out to sea to look for the end!"

Charles nodded his head, "Back then, I was the same as your grandfather, timid and afraid, but after all these years had passed, the secret to the end of my Nether Sea was still an eternal mystery in my heart.

I said in surprise, "Do you really think that the end of Nether Sea can bring someone back to life?"

"Hur Hur Hur!"

Charles laughed a few times: Tang Dynasty's Chen Jun, Ming Dynasty's Wu Zhong, Nanzhao's Loong Liaan and Yang Qi are all living examples, they have indeed revived, after so many years, your grandfather and I have both entered coffins halfway, but Yang Qi is still like a young man, do you think that reviving after death is fake? My body can't hold on much longer, so I need to reach the end of the Nether Sea! "

I asked again, "What about the organizations left behind by the Emperor Jianwen? They are also underground. How should we deal with them? "

Charles laughed a few more times: "There are no eternal enemies in this world. The organization's goal is the same as me, they are all searching for the secret at the end of Nether Sea, it's not impossible for us to cooperate. It's time for you to fulfill your promise and give me the map."

I shook my head. "I need to think about it!"

Charles was immediately angered: "You went back on your words, you don't look like a Chinese man, I think you should know that I do not want to use force to resolve the issue, I will give you one night's time, if you do not give me the map, I can guarantee that your life will not be good."

After Charles left, I pondered for a while, then got the monk to call Fourth Uncle over. After that, I told him everything that Charles had told me before.

I asked in surprise, "No, why are you laughing? I'm talking to you! "

Fourth Uncle lit a cigarette and patted his old face, then said: "He had told me all of this to Charles, but out of the four people who escaped back then, the old man's whereabouts are currently unknown, Zhu Haiming is already dead, and Yang Qi is even more elusive, do you think what he said was true?"

I nodded. "I also had the same thought. However, what do you think happened under the ground all those years ago?"

The Fourth Uncle shook his head: "It definitely won't be as simple as what Charles said. At least what he said was incorrect, I raise the list and he says is a translator. How can a British translator live in the same tent as the old man? In addition, even if they switched with the crown prince and killed the three men who were left behind, do you think that the people on the drilling team wouldn't chase after them at all? Forget about everything else, just based on the environment at that time, it was impossible for Charles to get permission to return. Furthermore, since the drilling team sent out the first and second batch, why couldn't they send out the third batch? His story has too many loopholes, but I can guarantee one thing. He did come to the end of Nether Sea, and that is because he doesn't have much time left to live, and wants to revive after his death! "

I frowned. "Then how should we deal with it?"

Fourth Uncle laughed: "Don't worry about how we're going to deal with you. Our biggest enemy isn't Charles, it's an organization left behind by the Emperor Jianwen. I just want to ask you, is the map on you?"

I shook my head. "The map is still on Zhu Yingqiong, but that map is useless as there are too many collapsed places underground."

Fourth Uncle nodded his head: "As long as you think too much, it will be useless. Take care of yourself, after a few hours, the tunnel will be completely dug out, I will first send Charles away, at that time, I will have Monk Yov Dahai help you find Zhu Yingqiong, you have to think of a way to get the map from Zhu Yingqiong, and follow the route on the map to find another item."

I curiously asked, "What is it?"

Fourth Uncle said: "It's the projection room of the Sakyamuni Army that Charles mentioned. I want you to take all the videos inside away, since the information inside is extremely important, because I want to check on a person!"

"Investigate who?"

Fourth Uncle exhaled a breath of smoke: "Yang Qi!"

I thought back to what Fourth Uncle had said, then carefully asked, "Are you trying to trick me again?"

Pow!

Fourth Uncle slapped my head and scolded me, "Bastard, when have I ever lied to you? This is extremely important, you have to get those tapes, and then find the location of the Kobemaru according to the route on the map. I will wait there for you, and this is also the old man's order!"

"What?"

I asked in surprise, "You found the old man?"

Fourth Uncle shook his head: "There are a lot of things I have to tell you right now, but the matter of the old man coming to the Wild Mountain is a trap, and the connection between him and the people behind it is extremely huge. Originally, I didn't want to involve you in this, but since you came here alone, I have no other choice.

After Fourth Uncle left, I remained confused. There were too many mysteries that were unable to be explained normally, and after thinking about it again, I felt dizzy, scolding myself for taking advantage of the situation. I was too lazy to think of anything else, so I just followed Fourth Uncle's instructions.
