Ji Chen took Sun Jian's words: "So that island is Chidao, and our island is an unknown island?"

Sun Jian nodded.

Zhang Yue suddenly said with a little excitement: "Could it be that we have discovered a new continent!"

Ji Chen denied: "Impossible, this place is not far from the coastline, after so many years, how can no one find out." Besides, now that technology is so advanced, satellites can see everything here very clearly, how can such a large island not be monitored. ”

Ji Chen was thinking about what was going on on this island, when Zhang Lan suddenly shouted: "Look!"

As soon as Ji Chen looked up, he saw a big merchant ship heading towards them on their side, Zhang Yue put his hands in his pockets and said disdainfully: "It's just a merchant ship, it's not that I haven't seen it, what's the fuss." ”

Zhang Lan immediately said: "No, this is a super large merchant ship, according to its speed and the distance between us, it will not have time to turn and crash directly into us!"

After listening to Zhang Lan's words, Ji Chen instantly understood, and he hurriedly pulled everyone back to the edge of the island.

Strangely, the big ship had no intention of turning at all, and was heading directly towards the island where they were.

Ji Chen hurriedly jumped up and waved and shouted at the boat, but the ship didn't react. They had to hide and watch as it crashed into the island.

But when the ship was about to crash into the shore, a miraculous scene occurred, and the ship passed directly through the island, as if the island did not exist for the ship.

Ji Chen rubbed his eyes and looked again, and found that this was indeed the case, the hull of the ship was like driving on the seawater, unimpeded. There were also two sailors on board who stood on deck to blow the wind, but completely ignored them.

Under the eyes of Ji Chen and the others, the merchant ship sailed straight from the east side of the island to the west side.

Zhang Lan's mouth opened: "Do you see it?"

"See!" everyone said in unison.

Zhang Yue was the first to come back to his senses and said, "I'll confirm again, this is not my hallucination!"

Sun Jian said: "It shouldn't be. ”

Ji Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that this island doesn't exist for other people at all, so no one has discovered this island." ”

Li Xue tilted her head: "Then why can we see this island again?"

Ji Chen shrugged his shoulders, pointed to the big stone tablet and said with a wry smile: "A thousand years have appeared, just in time for us to bump into it." It must have something to do with that big storm, and you have to suck it in to enter this island. ”

Zhang Yue walked to the stele and asked while looking at the words on it, "What exactly does this Qin Island and Lie Island mean?"

Ji Chen said to Zhang Yue with a look of hatred that iron is not made of steel: "You don't know your own hometown, Qindao is the former name of Qingdao, and the earliest name of Qingdao appeared in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, which has been four hundred years. As for the island of lies, I think it may be a fake word, which means desert island. ”

Zhang Yue pursed his lips and said, "That means that this tablet is at least four hundred years old!"

"Probably so. Ji Chen said.

Li Xue asked, "Then ...... now?"

"Go in and have a look, or just go back, right?" Ji Chen knew she was going to ask this.

Li Xue nodded.

Ji Chen turned around and looked at the island behind him, and found that except for the bridge in front of the island and this monument, which were a little strange, the rest of the place was similar to an ordinary desert island, but there were very tall and dense forests on the periphery of this island, which deliberately blocked them like a wall, so the situation inside was unknown at all.

Thinking of the appearance and origin of this island, and what happened to the ship just now, Ji Chen really didn't dare to despise this island. So he said: "This island is too weird, I suggest that everyone should decide whether to enter or not, and take responsibility for themselves if anything happens." ”

Zhang Yue immediately said: "I want to enter, this is very likely to be the legendary Penglai Immortal Island, there may be immortals on the island!

Sun Jian said: "But the stele said that those who saw it avoided it, which means that this may not be a good place." ”

"Maybe it's because the immortals wrote it to scare people in order to prevent outsiders from disturbing their cultivation!" Zhang Yue guessed.

Sun Jian lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head and said: "I still think it's dangerous, but the mystery of this place is too fascinating, I have encountered it once in a thousand years, if I don't go in to see it, I may regret it for the rest of my life, I'll go in!"

Brother Kun and Li Xue also said that they wanted to go in and have a look.

Zhang Lan held her chin with her hand and pondered for a while, then said, "Then I'll go in too." ”

After that, everyone looked at Ji Chen with eager eyes, and Ji Chen shook his head helplessly and said: "The so-called wealth is in danger, if there is really a treasure in it, maybe I will go in and have a look." ”

Zhang Yue immediately hugged him and said excitedly: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Before leaving, in order to make it easier to move, several people returned to the yacht and changed their swimsuits into the clothes they wore when they came, and then prepared a little, and then planned to enter the island.

There was a path next to the stone monument, and several people looked around and found that only the path in front of them seemed to be the entrance.

Both sides of the trail were as dense as the surrounding islands, Ji Chen looked into the depths of this trail, it was pitch black inside, and this entrance was more like the bloody mouth of a fierce beast, which made people feel a little frightened. Everyone looked at the depths of the entrance and hesitated, and no one dared to take the first one.

Sun Jian took a deep breath, then glanced at the others and said, "What, it's all cowardly?" Then I'll go ahead, what's the benefit, I'll be the first to take it" After speaking, he leaned over and prepared to go in.

Brother Kun suddenly stopped him and said with a smile: "I have more strength, and it is easier to deal with any situation, so I'll take the lead." ”

When Brother Kun returned to the yacht, he changed into a pair of leather boots and leather pants, Ji Chen felt a little strange that he was wearing this clothes, but this strange feeling was only fleeting. Sun Jian looked at Brother Kun's size again, and after a little thought, he agreed.

Ji Chen saw that Brother Kun had already gone in, so he moved away and said, "The girl walks between Zhang Yue and Sun Ke, and I am behind the palace, and I am optimistic about the two girls." ”

Ji Chen and the other six walked forward in a group, this path was just enough for two adult men to walk side by side, and it was still very wide for everyone to walk in a group.

It's just that this path seems to have no end, a few people keep walking, the trees on both sides are getting taller and denser, Ji Chen tried to look in through the trees on both sides, but he couldn't see anything.

Slowly, the sky above everyone's heads has been blocked into a line by the canopy, the surroundings are getting darker and darker, and their bodies have begun to become inexplicably hot and unbearable, Ji Chen touched it with his hand and found that some mucus began to appear on his body, Ji Chen felt some hot pain in his skin, so he touched it with his hand and sniffed it in front of his nose, and a violent sour smell rushed straight to Ji Chen's head.

Li Xue said in a trembling voice: "This won't be the road to hell." ”

Zhang Yue said: "If this is the road to hell, then it is nothing more than that. ”

"Why don't we go back?" Zhang Lan said again.

"It's so disappointing, it's too bold!" Zhang Yue mocked Li Xue.

As the light dimmered, so did the crowd's progress.

A strong uneasiness came out of Ji Chen's heart, and Ji Chen's instinct told him that they might be in trouble. But apart from a secluded and dimly lit path, there was really no danger in sight.

Walking behind, Ji Chen found that there were some knife marks on the trees next to him from time to time, and there were still blood stains on them. Ji Chen looked forward and found that it was Brother Kun who kept making marks on the tree next to him with a knife as he walked.

Ji Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, compared to Brother Kun, who can give people a sense of security at a glance, he is indeed a not very reliable person, although he has a strong uneasiness in his heart, he doesn't know what to do, or Brother Kun is careful, but what is the situation with this blood? Is it from Brother Kun's body? Or is it oozing from the tree?

Although Ji Chen wanted to ask, he felt that he was too far away from Brother Kun, and this small question didn't seem to be necessary, so he held back.

I don't know how long I walked, Ji Chen inadvertently looked back, and finally found the source of his inner uneasiness.

There was no road behind them, only the same trees as the surroundings, Ji Chen couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly called the people in front of him. When everyone saw that there was no road behind them, they all showed the same surprised expressions as Ji Chen.

Sun Jian said with a frightened face: "Could it be that the ghost hit the wall?"

Zhang Yue said: "Isn't this the fairy island?

Ji Chen glared at Zhang Yue and said, "Who told you that this must be an immortal island, don't be preconceived." ”

Brother Kun walked over and looked at the tree behind him carefully, and then said seriously: "The marks are gone, it shouldn't be a ghost hitting the wall." ”

Everyone looked at Brother Kun, as if expecting him to give an answer.

Brother Kun said in his deep voice: "Even if it is really a ghost hitting the wall, there is nothing to be afraid of, don't be frightened by folk tales or superficial meanings." The so-called "ghost hitting the wall" means that when walking at night or in the suburbs, you can't tell the direction, your self-perception is blurred, and you don't know where to go, so you always go in circles, which is actually a hazy state of human consciousness. ”

Looking at the still confused eyes of several people, Brother Kun knew that they still didn't understand, so he continued to explain: "There are subtle differences in the body structure of living things, such as the wings of birds, and there are subtle differences in the strength and muscular development of the two wings. There is also a difference in the length and strength of a person's legs, so there will be a difference in the distance of the steps taken. For example, the distance of the left leg is long, and the distance of the right leg is short, so the deviation of accumulating down will form a big circle. In short, in a word, the essence of biological motion is circular motion, and if there is no goal or loss of goal, the instinctive motion of any living thing is circular motion. Because the environment around the cemetery is very similar, it is easy for people to get disoriented, confuse the references, and thus keep going in circles, which is why there is a saying that ghosts blow out the lamp. The reason why we can usually walk in a straight line is because we use our eyes to constantly correct our direction, that is, our brain is constantly positioning and correcting to correct our direction and pace gap, so we naturally walk in a straight line. But the current situation does not correspond at all, first of all, we are blocked by trees on both sides, and our route is fixed with only this path, so there is no loss of purpose, and there is no condition to turn us around. Secondly, each of us has different walking habits, and it is impossible to have the same bias behavior, so this is not a ghost hitting the wall at all. ”

After Brother Kun's explanation, several people seemed to understand a general idea. Sun Jian asked, "Then what is the situation we are encountering now, and where has the original road gone?"

After hearing this, Brother Kun also shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never encountered this situation either." ”

Ji Chen closed his eyes, thought about it, and then said, "I thought about it for a long time, and I only thought of three possibilities. The first possibility, which is a hallucination, is that the air and the slime on our bodies are very likely to cause us to hallucinate due to the fact that we walk in this narrow and dense space for a long time. The second possibility is that the trees will move, and these trees will quietly block our retreat after we come in. The third case ......"

Ji Chen looked at everyone, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said slowly, "We really bumped into the hell." ”
