"Thank you, General. Knowing that the general could personally take him to see Chen Yue, Qin Lang was overjoyed.

"General, I have a request. Seeing this, Huo Chi also walked over, but everyone in the Snow Leopard Team looked at him worriedly, for fear that he would ask for the meat of the lake elves.

"Well, you name it. Rahman was in a good mood at this time, so he was very patient.

Huo Chi said: "Can the general pick up a few sets of diving suits and a speedboat for us?"

"What do you want this for?" asked the general.

"I want to go underwater and see the lair of the elves in the lake. "Huo Chi is telling the truth.

"Oh, do research, yes, just leave it by the lake and tell the resident people when it's finished. With a slight nod, Rahman got into the armored car, and the soldiers quickly retreated.

The lake, which was still very lively just now, quickly became quiet, but Xiao Jian asked loudly, "Huo Chi, do you really want to eat that lake elf?"

"Who wants to eat it, I just want to know what they are going to do with that monster, and I always feel that the monster should be wise. Huo Chi said: "How similar it looks to people." ”

"No matter how similar it is, it's a monster!" Fu Ze hurriedly said: "Monsters are cruel by nature and always want to attack humans, don't think they have the wisdom to try to communicate with them." ”

"I know. Huo Chi said: "Let's not talk about the lake elves, let's go underwater and see its lair." ”

"What are you doing in the lair?" Fu Ze asked.

"There may be good ingredients in it. Huo Chi walked over to the wetsuit and prepared to put it on.

"Huo Chi, do you know how to dive?" The cold-faced man Qin Lang was a little uneasy, the depth of Mingjing Lake was thirty or forty meters.

"Yes, I learned to dive. "Huo Chi used to learn to dive in order to eat the freshest wild abalone. He still remembers that time he didn't dig a few abalones, but picked up several sea cucumbers.

"Huo Chi, can we not do with that ingredient, we don't know what is under Mingjing Lake, let's go back to the camp." Fu Ze, for the sake of insurance, didn't want Huo Chi to go into the water.

But Huo Chi moved quickly, had already put on the diving suit, and got into the speedboat: "Captain, the ingredients taste very special, it's a pity not to eat it, I'll see if there are any, if not, we'll leave." ”

"Alas! Okay!" Fu Ze didn't want to discourage the team, so he got on the motorboat. Su Qingqing carried a set of diving suits and asked, "Captain, I also want to go down and try it, I have also learned to dive before." ”

Expedition members are basically trained in diving before joining the expedition. Fu Ze saw that Su Qingqing wanted to dive so much, so he agreed.

The male team members all turned around consciously, and Su Qingqing hid in the haystack and changed into a diving suit: "Okay, let's go." "She loves diving, but she didn't have the opportunity to do that when she joined the expedition, she wants to take a good swim today.

Xiao Jian started the speedboat and quickly headed for the location marked in the middle of the lake. Sapper Xiao Jian is a master driver, and there are almost no mechanical devices that he can't control.

This speedboat was no exception, he steadily parked the boat next to the marker, Fu Ze said to Huo Chi and Su Qingqing seriously: "You two should take care of each other when you go into the water, go down for a while and come up, don't stay underwater for too long, understand?"

"Understood!" Huo Chi turned back and entered Mingjing Lake, and Su Qingqing immediately followed.

The three people on the boat were nervously guarded, but Huo Chi and Su Qingqing under the water were cruising happily.

In fact, Mingjing Lake is not a good place for diving, the lake here is relatively muddy, and the visibility under the water is only about 20 meters.

However, even so, Huo Chi could still see the small fish swimming around him, and some kind of underwater structure that was faintly visible not far away.

Su Qingqing pointed ahead with her mother, Huo Chi agreed, and the two swam forward. Huo Chi found that Su Qingqing swam very skillfully, and at first glance, he looked like he had practiced diving many times.

There are so many surprises about this girl. Huo Chi followed beside her, in a very happy mood.

When they got closer, they found that this so-called underwater structure was nothing more than a large pile of large and small stones, but these stones were stacked in a very orderly manner, forming several neat walls.

Inside these walls, there were a number of fish bones, which looked like they were left over from the food that the elves of the lake had eaten.

Suddenly, Su Qingqing covered his mask violently in the water, Huo Chi didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly swam over, Su Qingqing startled him with a finger of his hand.

In one corner of the stone wall, there was actually a human skeleton! Huo Chi and Su Qingqing glanced at each other, and they both understood that this was left by the unfortunate human beings who had encountered misfortune in Mingjing Lake.

This lake elf is really a man-eating monster! Huo Chi hurriedly pulled Su Qingqing up and swam to the side, and saw a white bone under the dim water, which was really indescribably weird.

As they continued their search, several small, strange-looking red fish, the size of a human palm, but with plump "red lips," swam by.

Huo Chi noticed that the system actually gave them a name: "Fire Lip Fish", it turned out that these fish were also monsters!

Huo Chi clicked on the monster eating guide that was unlocked at the same time:

【Fire Lip Fish】

Harmless aquatic monsters.

Edible part: The lip part of the fish meat other than the internal organs is rich in collagen.

Contraindications: Warm food, eat more fire.

Directions: Cooked food.

Insider tip: It can be stored for a long time after drying

This turned out to be a harmless monster?! I actually encountered a monster that would not actively attack humans. This strange monster can also be eaten, so let's see if we can catch it.

Huo Chi pointed at Xiaoyu with his finger, and Su Qingqing immediately understood what he meant. The two of them cautiously approached the small fish, these flaming lip fish did not notice the danger, Huo Chi stretched out his hand and directly caught two.

Where are the lip fish, it's stupid at all! Huo Chi felt that these little fish were so stupid, and he and Su Qingqing caught several at random.

Throwing the small fish into the storage bag on their waists, Huo Chi and Su Qingqing continued to seriously search for the true purpose of this trip - lotus root.

They walked halfway around the stone wall and found a large pile of dense lotus leaves. Huo Chi felt that these lotus leaves were really strange, they did not float on the surface of the water, but sank to the bottom, which was really abnormal.

However, since there are lotus leaves here, then there should be lotus roots, right? Huo Chi swam towards the lotus leaves, carefully picking off the leaves, and sure enough, a small piece of lotus root emerged from the mud and sand.

Huo Chi stood at the bottom of the water and carefully pulled it out in the direction of the lotus's growth. Su Qingqing concocted it in the same way, and after pulling out one piece, he also successfully pulled out a few intact ones.
