Chapter 1482 Trapped
56, 57, 58, 59, up!
call!
Zhou Jing emerged from the water, and the air in her lungs had been slowly expelled during the ascent process. She opened her mouth in an oval shape, breathing in fresh air rapidly and long.
Not far from her, Abby almost popped her head.
The two had no time to chat, and could only greedily complete the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen in their bodies in just a few seconds. They took roughly four quick breaths, and then they had to take a deep breath and plunge into the water again. If it took too long, the tourists would Will be impatient to wait.
The glass wall where the tourists are located can only see the bottom of the seawater tank, which is roughly five to nine meters below the water surface. When the two of them floated to the surface to take a breath, they disappeared from the audience's view.
The effect of the brown sugar ginger tea has also disappeared. When I first drank it, it still had a little effect, as if the burning skin temporarily blocked the cold water from eroding the body fat and muscles. But as they went up and down again and again, their scalding skin cooled down quickly, and the coldness quietly enveloped their internal organs like the shadow of the setting sun. Now they could only feel the beating of their heart and the burning heat of their lungs.
This is the 8th ascension.
The performance of Zhou Jing and Abby is coming to an end.
It may be that the painkillers have worked, and Zhou Jing no longer feels the cramping pain in her lower abdomen. Of course, it may also be that the cold blocked the transmission of nerves.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you stick to it two more times, and then go up twice, after the 10th time up, their task of diving again is to wave goodbye to the tourists, and then swim lightly out of their sight and swim back into the small pool.
Zhou Jing's spirit relaxed a lot, and so did Abby.
Abby made a gesture, Zhou Jing took a deep breath, and started the ninth dive.
Three meters underwater.
There are scales marked on the wall of the pool. Abby and Zhou Jing hovered three meters below the water. Below them, the upper edge of the glass wall can already be seen.
The two of them pinched their noses through diving goggles at the same time, their mouths were tightly pursed, their facial muscles tensed, their chests contracted, and their lungs were pressurized.
At this depth underwater, the eardrum is concave under the action of water pressure, which hurts like a needle prick, so stop and press the eardrum, and use the air in the lungs to push the eardrum back, otherwise it will greatly affect diving.
Zhou Jing felt a soft sound of "Bo" coming from her ear bone,
The tingling in her eardrums went away, and she turned to look at Abby.
Abby seemed to be in trouble during the ear pressure. She gestured to Zhou Jing, which was a clear signal between them at a glance, indicating that she needed to adjust. Then she floated up half a meter and started the ear pressure again.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in diving. Even if they are well-trained, they will occasionally encounter the failure of ear pressure. They need to go up half a meter to fine-tune the water pressure and try again, otherwise they cannot continue diving.
Every second of the 1-minute diving time is extremely precious. Zhou Jing also gestured to Abby, saying that she would dive first and not make tourists wait any longer. This is also their common way of dealing with it. Next to it, it will put too much psychological pressure on the partner who failed to get ear pressure.
Zhou Jing continued to dive and appeared in front of the tourists again.
The other side of the glass wall was dim, and it was difficult to see the faces of the tourists from her perspective, but she still recognized Xiaoxue because Xiaoxue's figure stood out among a group of middle-aged overweight American women.
Some children put their faces against the glass wall and tried to look up, as if wondering where the other mermaid went.
Zhou Jing raised her arms upwards and bent inwards, put the fingertips of both palms together on the Baihui acupoint on the top of her head, and drew a heart-shaped pattern to the tourists, trying to attract the tourists' attention to herself.
But... she's not very successful, and some of the visitors seem to be drawn to something else, something that's behind her.
In the water, if you want to see what is behind you, you must turn around as a whole. Zhou Jing used other movements as a cover to swim sideways, pretending to look behind casually.
A shadow approaches from the sea.
It was a large turtle, and the divers called it "Grumpy Bob."
Grumpy Bob is actually not malicious, but full of curiosity, especially for divers and mermaids. His brain volume is probably too small to remember that he was just curious the day before.
Oops.
Zhou Jing's heart tightened. Both she and Abby have suffered from this big turtle. No matter how docile the turtle looks, their bite force is amazing. They can bite off a piece of meat with one bite. Her and Abby's diving suits And the mermaid suit was bitten by it.
But the turtle was a slow swimmer and could only do surprise attacks, and since she had spotted it, it wasn't a big problem.
The light and shadow above her head swayed slightly, and Zhou Jing knew that Abby had already dealt with the ear pressure.
Abby obviously also spotted the irritable Bob, and found that it was swimming towards Zhou Jing, so she moved closer to it, waving her hands at it, to attract its attention.
Zhou Jing understands Abby's intentions and stays away from it in the opposite direction.
The irritable Bob abandoned Zhou Jing and chased after Abby instead.
It seems that Zhou Jing can only sing a one-man show in this dive.
Zhou Jing reckoned that there were still 15 seconds left before she would float up, and her mind was slightly distracted, thinking about what actions she should use these 15 seconds for.
In order to stay away from the irascible Bob, she unconsciously approached the edge of the glass wall, where the seabed was a continuous black-brown reef.
Sharp-eyed viewers suddenly saw something moving between the gaps in the reef.
Immediately afterwards, a long gray-black creature stuck its head out from the reef and swam towards Zhou Jing quietly.
sea snake?
Hairtail?
The former should be taller than this creature, while the latter lives in the deep sea and should not appear in the aquarium.
After the sea turtle swam away, most of the audience focused on Zhou Jing's performance, not seeing that sinister creature approaching her quietly.
After Zhou Jing finished her movements, she was a little overdue for a few seconds, and was about to float up, when she suddenly felt like something was poking behind her buttocks, but there was no pain or injury through the mermaid suit.
The tourists all saw the guy at this time, and they all exclaimed.
It was a robust adult moray eel, which usually hides among the reefs and waits for a rabbit, preying on passing small fish.
Compared with the meek turtles, the fast-moving and ferocious moray eels are more dangerous. Their teeth are as sharp as razors. If they bite on the hand, they can even bite off a finger.
Zhou Jing knew something was wrong, whether it was turtles or moray eels, why did they all come at her at this time?
Could it be...
She suddenly thought of some possibility, could it be... the reason of menstrual period?
At this time, there was no time to think about it, so I had to float up to take a breath.
She raised her head and was about to flick the fish's tail to float up, when suddenly a shadow blocked the light above her head.
Cranky Bob swam back again.
