Chapter 4: The Millennium Island

Unconsciously, Ji Chen fell asleep, and when he was sleeping, a wave suddenly slapped on his face and woke him up.

Ji Chen jumped up in fright, thinking that it was Zhang Yue or someone who had done a prank on him, and when he was about to scold, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Not far in front of the yacht, an oversized black tornado appeared, and the clouds in the sky turned into pitch black, like a flock of crows gathered together. The sea was also gray, the torrential rain hurt people's faces, and the wind kept making big waves, causing their yacht to sway from side to side.

This scene is like encountering an apocalyptic crisis. Ji Chen climbed to the control room with difficulty with his hands and feet, and saw that Brother Kun was controlling the yacht with a nervous face, while the other four people were already in a mess.

Ji Chen asked Zhang Yue what the situation was, and Zhang Yue told him that it had suddenly darkened just now, and then a tornado suddenly appeared in front of him.

Ji Chen scolded: "You didn't check the weather forecast before you took us out?"

Zhang Yue also scolded: "I watched, but the weather forecast says that the weather is good today!" After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and showed it to Ji Chen, which did show that the weather was good.

Zhang Yue grabbed the iron frame next to him and said to Ji Chen: "I just said that you should pay attention to your words, you still don't listen, it's good now, it must be the Dragon King who is angry!"

Ji Chen said a fart and walked to the window, through the window, he saw an even more incredible scene.

It was as if the sky had been split in half, and the side they were on was cloudy and windy, but the sky behind them was still as sunny as before. Ji Chen didn't know much about the sea, so he could only guess that this might be the unique weather conditions on the sea.

At this time, the tornado in front of them was like a giant python dancing wildly in the air, and their yacht had begun to be slowly sucked into it uncontrollably, and everyone panicked.

Brother Kun tried his best to control the yacht to drive back, but the power of the yacht's engine was like an ant in the face of the tornado.

Seeing the tornado in front of him getting closer and closer, Ji Chen's heartbeat became faster and faster.

When Ji Chen and the others' yachts had already been affected by the whirlpool and began to spin, he knew that they might be finished. As soon as the yacht starts to spin with the whirlpool, it means that they have been completely caught by the tornado, and the yacht will only spin faster and faster, and eventually be sucked in.

Li Xue next to her was already scared and crying, Zhang Lan also shrank in the corner, and Sun Jian and Zhang Yue were guarding the two of them.

Sure enough, within a few seconds, Ji Chen saw that their yacht was rushing towards the eye of the wind quickly, and the speed was already so fast that it exceeded the maximum speed of the yacht itself.

Everyone was so frightened that everyone simply closed their eyes and waited for death. Just when Ji Chen closed his eyes and waited to plunge into the water, suddenly, the surroundings began to become quiet, and they didn't seem to be swept into the storm.

Ji Chen opened his eyes suspiciously, and found that the tornado in front of him had disappeared, and in its place, it was an island.

Due to inertia, the yacht kept sliding forward and stopped right in front of the island.

Everyone was blindsided, and everyone walked from the control room to the deck to look at the scene in front of them. It was still a desperate situation just now, and now everything is back to normal, the only difference is that an island suddenly appears in front of me.

Zhang Yue said with palpitations: "It's gone? The speed of this disappearance is too unreasonable!"

Li Xue was stunned and said, "The appearance of this island doesn't seem to be very logical, right?"

Sun Jian gasped and said: "Not necessarily, it was too dark just now, maybe this island is hidden in the eye of the tornado, and it is normal for everyone not to find it." ”

Ji Chen immediately said: "But this is the Yellow Sea! According to our route and distance, will there be an island here?"

Zhang Lan looked at Ji Chen and said, "Could it be a mirage?"

Brother Kun picked up a sea fish on the yacht that had just jumped on the yacht in the confusion, and then threw it at the island, the sea fish smashed a small pit in the beach and was still jumping there, he shook his head at everyone and said: "The mirage is a virtual image formed by the refraction of the light reflected by the object, and everyone has seen that the pit, this island is obviously not an imaginary image.

Ji Chen turned around again and asked Zhang Yue, "Where are you going?"

Zhang Yue scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I have long been confused about the sailing distance, as for the direction, it should be...... Oh, I guess it's in the direction of Akashima. ”

Ji Chen looked at the island in front of him in disbelief and said, "If it's Chidao, then it's no problem." Shall we go to the island or go back now?"

Zhang Yue said without hesitation: "Of course, I went to the island first, I just tossed it like that, and now I don't rest and rest, who can live it." ”

Ji Chen glanced at everyone and saw that everyone was embarrassed. Li Xue nodded at Ji Chen, and Sun Jian also echoed: "Let's go and rest, I just heard that Chidao is a place with a good scenery, let's just go up and have a look." ”

Ji Chen saw that most of the people agreed, so he had no choice but to agree.

As far away as Ji Chen, he saw a long bridge in front of the island leading from the island to the sea. When he got off the yacht, he felt that something was wrong with the bridge, and when he looked closer, he saw that the bridge in front of the island was made of blood-red wood, and there were many strange-shaped animal heads carved into the railings on both sides.

These heads were all carved to life, but what was strange was that each beast head was carved with its mouth open, and its realism made Ji Chen feel several times that these animal heads seemed to be ready to speak. Ji Chen thought to himself, could this be the characteristic of Chidao? If so, then this characteristic is too weird.

Ji Chen asked everyone, "Has anyone ever been to Chidao before?"

Everyone shook their heads and said no.

Ji Chen asked Zhang Yue again: "You grew up in Laoshan District, and you haven't been to this island before?"

Zhang Yue said dissatisfiedly: "I don't believe that you have been to every corner of your hometown!"

Ji Chen was too lazy to talk to him, but when he walked to the end of the bridge, he found that there was a very quaint stone tablet here, which read:

"To the east of Qin Island, there may be a lie island, which occurs once in a thousand years, and those who see it avoid it. ”

Zhang Yue took a closer look at the stone stele, and then asked with a puzzled expression, "What the hell?"

Ji Chen squinted and stared at the stone tablet for a long time: "This is a traditional Chinese character, it is written to the east of Qindao, or there is an island of lies, which appears once in a thousand years, and those who see it avoid it." ”

Zhang Yue made an incredulous expression and said, "What does this mean?

Ji Chen said: "I just saw this bridge and felt that something was wrong, this bridge looked too old, and the statues of these animal heads were also unusual, I thought this was the characteristic of Chidao." Could it be that the bridge and this stele were deliberately made like this to attract tourists?"

"I don't think so. Sun Jian suddenly said such a sentence.

Ji Chen and Zhang Yue both looked at Sun Jian and found that he was standing on the other side of the bridge looking into the middle of the sea. Everyone looked in his direction, and found that there was also a small island faintly!

"With the distance we traveled, it was only ten kilometers, and if you look carefully at the map of China, you can see that there is only one island about ten kilometers away from the coastline of Laoshan Mountain, that is, Chidao. And now we have an island under our feet, and there is an island there, and the distance between the two islands is only four or five kilometers, which is simply impossible!" Sun Jian said with certainty.

Zhang Lan walked out from behind Ji Chen: "According to what you mean, one of this island and that island is Chidao, and the other does not exist?"

Sun Jian continued: "I heard that Chidao is a 'sea station' for all kinds of migratory birds, so there should be a lot of struvite formed by the perennial accumulation of guano on the coast of Chishima, but there is only clean sand and gravel here. You see, almost all the birds in the air flew to the opposite island, and not a single bird on this island stopped. In addition, Chidao is a scenic area with great development value, and there will definitely be a lot of infrastructure, hotels, and people in it. And look, this place, like a place where there are people?"
