Mulan heard the chili women mention that Shouzhen Island was completely wrapped in a thick fog that lasted all the year, and there was no glimpse of the island from the outside. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is also this thick fog that casts layers of mysterious and strange colors on Shouzhen Island, making people on land awe of it and secretive about it. People in many places along the coast even think that there is no island in the dense fog, but in fact, it is the location of the underworld, and accidentally entered the fog and stepped on the Huangquan Road, never returning to the world.

Unless there are special circumstances, the exiled official ships often depart from the mouth of the Haihe River at noon on the first day and arrive at the place of exile at noon on the second day, which must have been influenced by this statement. Because the yang energy is at its strongest at noon, the ghost gate is generally not opened, and the person in charge of exile is not easily attacked by the yin energy.

Mulan has lived on the island for more than ten years, and she knows that this statement is nonsense. Although I can't tell the exact principle, we can guess that the generation and existence of this dense fog belt are inextricably linked to the whirlpool, and if the whirlpool disappears, the fog must also disperse.

But right now, she really had the feeling that she was stepping on Huangquan Road.

Her limbs are relatively developed, her mind is not simple, and she thinks that her adaptability and memory are still good. At first, she wanted to rely on the laws of ocean currents to determine the direction, but the changes in the currents in this area were so small that they had little reference value.

Then it occurred to her that no matter how thick the fog was, it could not penetrate below the surface of the sea, and that there was always a reference under the sea. When I dived, I found that the water was pitch black, and the visibility was not much better than on the sea.

Even though she couldn't see the sky or the sun in the fog, she could feel the night coming. The sea gradually cooled, and the mist hit the skin with a slight coolness. There was a slight commotion in the quiet sea during the day, and occasionally a small fish or two would swim past her.

After a day of soaking in the sea, the skin turned white and began to wrinkle. The more sensitive and fragile parts were eroded by salt water, and there was a tingling sensation.

She was afraid of attracting sea beasts and predatory fish, so she didn't dare to stay in one place for too long, so she swam forward with a gamble mentality. When you are tired of swimming, stop and rest for a while, eat a piece of dried meat, take a sip of fruit wine, and continue to swim forward when your strength recovers a little.

After a few hours, she suddenly noticed that the fog on the sea seemed to be much thinner. Looking up, she could vaguely see the outline of the moon, which was enough to show that this was not her illusion, but really found the right direction.

She was overjoyed in her heart, and she did not want to stay for a moment, and swam forward with all her might.

The moment she was completely bathed in the moonlight, she could barely contain her excitement and wanted to cheer loudly.

The sea at night is vast and vast, and there is a depth that is indescribable in words than in the daytime. The sky is like a dome, and the sea is like black jade, setting off the girl with a smile on her face and a smile on her lips so small, but so conspicuous.

After swimming for a long time, Mulan was already exhausted and in urgent need of rest. Soon he pressed down on his joy, looked around, and searched carefully.

In the waters near Shouzhen Island, it was the middle of the night, and it was a luxury to want to meet passing ships. You can only look for it and see if there are any small islands or bare reefs in the vicinity that you can cling to temporarily.

Xu used up his luck when he walked through the whirlpool and dense fog, and after swimming for a long time, not to mention the small islands and bare reefs, even driftwood.

The moon hangs less than a foot above the sea, radiating a clear glow. The temperature in the sea is getting colder and colder, and the cold penetrates the flesh and skin of the clothes to the bone marrow. She poured a few sips of fruit wine, but she still couldn't dispel the chill, her upper and lower teeth bumping together and gurgling, which sounded extraordinarily permeable in the silence of the atmosphere.

His physical strength was already overdrawn, and his limbs were like lead. When his body was cold, his eyelids sank. After a little relaxation, the whole person slid under the water, drank a sip of seawater in a panic, and choked and coughed.

Just as she was on the verge of despair, a small black dot appeared on the horizon ahead. She perked up, and hurriedly paddled her hands and feet, swimming towards that side.

It is said that Wangshan runs a dead horse, but she doesn't feel this way at all, every time she looks up, she can feel that the distance is significantly shortened. After swimming a little further, the energy generated by the excitement of the idea ran out, and I had to stop and rest.

When she stepped on the water to stabilize her body, she looked up again, only to find that the distance between her and the "black spot" was still shrinking. As the distance closes, the volume of the "black dot" continues to increase.

It was far away, and she couldn't see it very clearly, but judging by the shape, it wasn't a boat. The currents are not intense, and the speed suggests that they cannot be glaciers or floating islands.

Then there is only one possibility, it is a living thing. Although I don't know if it's a whale shark or a jellyfish, it's undoubtedly extremely dangerous for her.

The fear in my heart immediately dissipated without a trace. Holding his hand on his pounding chest, his mind was racing through analysis. If you stay where you are, sooner or later you will meet the living creatures. You can't turn around and go back, otherwise you will be dizzy and break back into the dense fog belt, and it will be difficult to come out again.

After a little measurement, he swam diagonally to the right, intending to bypass the living creature and make another calculation.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, or if it was discovered, she changed direction, and the living creature also changed its course, and approached this way with undiminished momentum. She was shocked and hurriedly swam to the left front.

The speed of the living creature was too fast, but in an instant, it was close to her, and its huge dark body occupied her entire field of vision. Her heart sank to the bottom all of a sudden, and she secretly said that it was over, she lived again, and left Shouzhen Island after all kinds of hardships, and finally ended up in the belly of a fish?

Before a thought could be finished, the living creature let out a sharp roar as if frightened, and plunged into the water.

Mulan was caught off guard, and was rolled up high by the waves it set off, and fell down fiercely. I didn't know what I was bumping into in my head, and I felt a sharp pain, and I lost consciousness as soon as it was dark in front of my eyes.

In her hazy consciousness, she felt her body float on the surface of the sea, rising and falling with the current. The wind was blowing on the sea, and it seemed to be raining, and the raindrops hit her face, and it hurt and itched.

Then the sun came out, and it made her skin ache hotly. I don't know how many days and nights passed, and I don't know how many times she woke up, she felt the breath of the same kind. Someone was shouting something, and someone was slapping her cheek with their hands.

She wanted to open her eyes to take a look, but her upper and lower eyelids seemed to be sticky, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't open them. Thinking that he would be saved when he met someone, his heart was relieved, and he fell into a deep sleep.
