Chapter 192: Polar Night

"What's next?" Luo Shijing asked.

"Of course, all of them are on alert! If I'm not wrong, I guess there will be more animals like this in the future! Remember, once you enter our territory, don't let any of them go!"

I exhort the people with caution.

I now have a vague sense that an unknown deadly danger seems to be creeping in the shadows......

Naturally, we take turns keeping vigils at night.

But luckily, nothing else could have happened that night, which put me at ease.

The next day I decided to go to the Komodo dragon's burrow again.

After all, these opals have a lot of secrets, and I must get more of them in case I need them.

If it can really be used as a stimulant to strengthen the body, can I eat it and become infinitely powerful?

But I still don't dare to try this kind of business that gambles with my life.

I didn't take anyone with me this time, and although everyone highly recommended me, I couldn't bear to let everyone follow me on another adventure.

It's not a long way, but it's a tough one.

I was thinking about how I could cleverly avoid Komodo's pursuit.

If I have a good idea, I guess this guy is not in the cave, but if I happen to sleep in the cave by this guy, plus I have already disturbed it before, combined with the incident of the black bear, there is a good chance that I will be attacked by a Komodo dragon!

When I got to the cave, I first took a closer look around the cave.

I found nothing out of the ordinary, so I cautiously got inside.

God must have favored me, this Komodo dragon is really not in the burrow!

I cautiously crossed the long path to where the monitor lizards had been perched.

Not surprisingly, these opals are still in place, but they seem to have been carefully regulated by someone.

This time, I put a lot of opals in my pockets, and then buried a lot of soil under the opals, so that from the outside, there is actually no less.

This method can't fool humans, but fooling a stupid lizard should be no problem.

This time, I took out about 30 small opals, all about half the size of a little finger nail.

And when I was done, I hurried back to the camp three times in a hurry.

And the days that followed, although we were worried, did not see those suspicious animals again, and we naturally focused on building wooden boats.

The initial prototype of our wooden boat has come out, after all, the bottom of the ship is still very easy to do, but the upper cabin is difficult to build, we can't bend the wood directly into the shape we want, we can only simply nail it horizontally to the bottom of the boat.

It's just that there is no such thing as a blessing, and there is no single line of evil......

It's been more than a month since the last black bear attacked, and the daylight hours are getting shorter and shorter.

If my estimate is correct, the daylight hours are estimated to be about five hours.

Tonight it was my turn to keep vigil, because it was too boring, Luo Shijing and Ye Wan'er also came out to accompany me.

Ye Wan'er can finally be with me openly, after all, we have been together for so long, everyone can see what's going on, Ye Wan'er fortunately let down her guard and doesn't care about other people's eyes.

And the most envious is Jiang Wenhao.

The three wives and four concubines that this kid has always dreamed of, I didn't expect it to come true today.

"Qin Ming, do you think we can really go back to the city?"

Luo Shijing sat beside me with Ye Wan'er in her hand, our wooden boat finally had a prototype, and Luo Shijing's heart naturally had the idea of going home.

said he didn't want to go back, but he had some longing in his heart.

And now the most concerned nature is not the life in the city, but our relatives in the city.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely go back!"

I clenched Luo Shijing and Ye Wan'er's hands, and these two girls also leaned on me with peace of mind.

......

I kept staring at the river, I don't know how long it took, Luo Shijing and Ye Wan'er woke up from their sleep.

"Why isn't it dawn yet?"

Luo Shijing opened her eyes and looked at me in some surprise, and then pointed to the black sky like coal.

I'm also very confused.

Even though the day was long, at least ten hours had passed now, and the vigil had been since about ten o'clock in the evening, and it was almost eight or nine o'clock in the morning.

But why is it still so dark?

"Oh, I've been really tired these past few days, I haven't built a boat since I was a child, so if I go back, I can brag about it!"

Jiang Wenhao walked out of the dirt cave and stretched.

"Damn, am I sleeping? Why is it still dark?" Jiang Wenhao shouted as he looked at the black sky.

Really!

I thought it was the recent exhaustion that made me mentally confused, so I forgot the existence of time when I looked at the stream, but Jiang Wenhao's reaction showed that it was not my problem.

And it was indeed the time of daybreak, but there was no sun!

What's going on?

Is it the polar night?

Within half an hour, everyone walked out of the room, and they were very excited at first, after all, this day had passed, and we were one step closer to the day we returned to the city.

But then they were dumbfounded.

"What's going on?"

"Why is it so dark, is it because we woke up too early?"

"No, it stands to reason that I have a biological clock, and it should be daytime now!"

......

Everyone was puzzled, and I was lost in thought.

If I'm not mistaken, it's definitely the polar night.

However, this phenomenon only occurs at the north and south poles of the earth, how can it suddenly appear on our small island?

Everyone was ready to go home with joy, but the sudden polar night made everyone panic.

"Don't panic, everyone, it must be not dawn yet, after all, the daylight hours have been reduced recently, everyone go back and wait!" I shouted at the crowd.

At this time, we must not let everyone panic, so that everyone will not have the heart to build wooden boats again.

And I, as the core of the team, naturally can't take the lead in doing things.

Everyone returned to their rooms in disbelief, while I sat outside in a daze.

I didn't dare to pack my ticket and say that it would be dawn because it had been dark for almost sixteen hours. From six o'clock last night to about ten o'clock now, the sky has not even dawned.

This made me feel agitated.

"Qin Ming, what's going on? Could it be that our island will still move? Now that we're in Antarctica?" Luo Shijing said.

This is naturally impossible, objects are all in relative motion, and if the island we are on is moving, we can feel it just by looking at the clouds in the sky.

But this polar night is something I didn't expect.

I used to think that there would be natural disasters, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, etc.

But it was never dawn, and it was the first time in my life that I met it!
