153, the wind and rain are coming

"At present, the location where we are is probably in this sea area......" After some research, Chu An pointed to the blank area at the junction of the three kingdoms with a determined face.

“emmm……”

"Are you the devil?"

"Ma Ma Pi, just draw the outline of the briefs, and you can use it as a map?

"Briefs, this is very appropriate..."

When Chu An heard this, he laughed awkwardly: "I know it in my heart, isn't it just for you to draw it."

If my judgment is correct, then the planning of our route is roughly three.

North: France, Northeast: England, East: Spain.

Of these three directions, the closest to us is Pruzane, France. ”

"I decided to go north to France, and it was definitely a deliberate decision. ”

"Heading north to France, the direction is very simple, because Polaris is different from other nakshatras. ”

"The North Star is always pointing north, whether in the southern or northern hemisphere. ”

The purpose is determined,

Chu An looked up in the night sky to find the brightest star.

The night is beautiful and bright.

"The night sky at sea is full of stars, and it is not so easy to find the North Star. ”

"Actually, I taught you once last time how to find the location of the North Star. ”

"If you can't tell if you're looking for the North Star, you can refer to the verification method for the Big Dipper. ”

"The Big Dipper is in the shape of a spoon, and the tip of the spoon is a little past it, and the brightest one is the North Star. ”

soon

Chu An found the North Star in the starry sky.

At this time, the heavens are beautiful,

At the last moment before dawn.

"The wind is blowing~ It's time to go!"

Chu An shouted happily at the drone, quickly pulled the sail rope in his hand, all the movable supports on the mast were erected, and the sails were raised.

Boom~~~

With a soft sound,

The sail curved, and the canvas clinged tightly to the movable bracket of the mast.

Chu An, who was standing next to the mast of the ship, only felt that his body was being pulled, he immediately grabbed the mast, stabilized his body, and looked up at the North Star in the night sky from time to time to adjust the angle of the mast.

I saw the sailboat in the camera, sailing north at a speed of 3 knots per hour.

"Well, as long as the wind doesn't change and the wind doesn't change, in five days we'll be in Pruzane, France. ”

When he said this, Chu An himself couldn't help laughing, the direction remains the same, the wind remains the same, this is not nonsense.

This wind, this wind direction, can be maintained for half a day, and he should snicker.

However, it doesn't matter, Chu An is ready for a long-term struggle with nature.

That being said, it's important to remember that you always keep an eye out for changes in direction and changes in position. ”

After saying that, Chu An cut the remaining bark from the clothes into strips of cloth and hung them behind the sails, and if the wind direction changed, he would immediately notice it.

What needs to be done, it's done.

The rest of the voyage was very boring and even more tedious than on the island.

The place where Chu An can move is only more than two meters wide and more than five meters long.

Occasionally, when I was tired and tired, I had to tie the stone slab with vines and throw it into the sea to use as an anchor.

………

………

In the blink of an eye,

Two days and two nights passed.

I don't know which country's time, anyway, the sun is high in the sky, and the time should be noon.

No wind and no rain, calm and calm.

The sailboat stood still on the surface of the sea for almost three hours.

Just after lunch, there was a bonfire on the ship, and the smell of meat wafted in the air.

Chu An held the head of the chicken nest and kept observing the sky in four directions, southeast, northwest, but did not find anything abnormal.

A flash of worry flashed in his eyes, and he smiled: "I hope I am too worried." You've probably heard a phrase, the calm before the storm.

The situation is very similar, and it is now summer in the Southern Hemisphere, which tends to be the peak season for typhoons. ”

As soon as the words fell, a flock of seagulls appeared in the sky and flew south. Chu An's face changed drastically, and he didn't wait for him to react.

Thundered~

There was a loud bang in the clear sky, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

Suddenly, the wind changed dramatically, blowing at an eerie angle, and the sails began to retreat and circle in place.

The northern sky, the dense clouds, the speed visible to the naked eye, faintly, can still see the darkness inside the clouds.

"Damn, it's really here. ”

Chu An didn't care about explaining, kicked all the bonfires on the ship with one kick, and immediately squatted at the mast, untied the sail rope, and lowered the sail.

Then, sitting firmly in the middle of the hull, he picked up the oars and rowed vigorously, looking behind him from time to time at the seaspout that had formed.

Chu An said to the camera: "The typhoon is coming, the drone is going down, I hope I can avoid this catastrophe." ”

For a while, the sailors were all confused, what happened? Where am I? Good end suddenly became like this, this weather is too willful.

The first second was calm,

The next second the storm struck.

"It's all my negligence, I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”

This time without wind and waves was too long, and Chu An had no experience in sailing for the first time, so he wasted so much time in vain.

"In our case, don't even think about running when a typhoon comes, because manpower can't outrun the wind no matter what. ”

Chu An knew this very well, and paddled the oars quickly with both arms, adjusting the position of the sailboat.

"Since we can't run away, we must always observe the direction and direction of the wind, try to avoid facing the typhoon head-on, and minimize the gradual loss. ”

The stone axe had been tightly pinned to Chu An's waist, and he said in a deep voice: "If necessary, we must learn how to break the wrist of a strong man and abandon the auxiliary hull on both sides. ”

Chu An has prepared for the worst, although the trimaran is stable, it also has a wide range of forces.

Once the storm hits, the auxiliary hulls on both sides will definitely bear the brunt of the impact, and in severe cases, they will even drag down the main hull.

The wind suddenly became gentle, a strange and very gentle.

"I'm Nima, I can't afford to look up to me. ”

Chu An couldn't help but look behind him, his face changed greatly, and he couldn't help but burst into foul language.

The seaspouts not far behind him changed from one to three, forming an encirclement trend, because the wind of the three seaspouts absorbed each other, causing the wind to become calm.

"I can't hide from it now. ”

Chu An's expression was unprecedentedly solemn, and he stopped the useless actions in his hand, no matter how he adjusted his direction like this, he would definitely not be able to escape the attack of the three seaspouts.

"A head-on collision is inevitable. ”

Seeing this, Chu An immediately stood up, quickly put the water, food, and fruits that he could carry with him in a pigskin bag, tied them tightly behind him, and tied the surfboard to his waist with vines.

The seaspout is still a few minutes away.

Chu An raised the stone axe and quickly slashed at the sides of the sailboat, abandoning the auxiliary hulls on the left and right sides, reducing the weight and stress area of the sailboat.

"I think it's better to give it a try, what if it succeeds?"

With a strange smile on his face, Chu An returned to the position of the mast, raised the sail and fixed it to the bottom of the ship, and then he gripped the steering stick tightly, facing the seaspout, ready to meet it head-on.

"......"

"Master Chu, don't you want to die?"

"When a typhoon blows, you dare to raise the sails?"

The audience was stunned for a moment, and the storm came and sailed over, which is common sense that people who don't know how to sail know.

The sky is salty when it rains,

It's a seaspout, the sea that rolls up.

Chu An licked his lips and said in a low voice: "I know, what does this mean."

Bo, there may be a glimmer of life.

No, you can only wait for the seaspout to destroy the sailboat. ”

If the sailboat was destroyed, with a surfboard and a pitiful amount of resources, Chu An could not guarantee that he would return to land alive.

Because, the worst outcome is only a surfboard left, drifting on the sea.

So, why didn't he give it a go, and if he did it properly, he still had a chance to sail the ship and survive this crisis safely.
