Chapter 87: Exploration of the Island in the Lake (2)
I don't know how long it took, Shen Fan's fleet has been drifting with the waves in this big lake, and Shen Fan also discovered one thing, that is, one time in this big lake is turbulent, and the other is calm.
And the most amazing thing is that when the big lake is turbulent, the whole lake will be shrouded in fog, and the visibility is particularly low, only when the big lake is calm and calm, and the fog will disappear when the waves are not turbulent, and when the fog disappears, you can judge the location of the boat at this time, determine the location of the island in the middle of the lake, and turn the bow of the boat to sail in the direction of the island in the middle of the lake, but the embarrassing thing is that the time when the lake is calm and calm is short. Therefore, it is often when the waves on the lake surface have subsided, and before they have time to turn the direction of penetration, the lake surface will swell here, and then lose its way in the fog.
When the fog cleared again, the ship appeared somewhere else, and it was getting farther and farther away from the island in the middle of the lake anyway.
Although Shen Fan knew that this was not a solution, but Shen Fan had nothing to do in front of the turbulent waves, and Shen Fan couldn't drive the boat, in fact, it was useless to drive the boat, in the rough lake, coupled with the small size of the transport ship, the ship could not control its own direction at all.
Some of Shen Fan's five transport ships were neatly together when they first came in, but in the waves on the lake, the five boats were separated.
Shen Fan felt that the big lake would be calm for a while, rough for a while, shrouded in fog for a while, and beautiful for a while, especially like a game, "Please close your eyes when it's dark", when the fog is shrouded, it's like it's dark, you have to close your eyes, of course, even if you don't close your eyes, you can't see anything clearly under such a big fog, and when the fog dissipates, that is, when the lake surface returns to calm, it's like dawn, and you can see the outside world when the sky dawns.
Of course, this is not the most urinating, the most urinating thing is that when you open your eyes after dawn, you never know where you will be in this great lake.
There was even a time, when the dense fog covering the lake dissipated again, the boat that Shen Fan was on was not far from the island in the middle of the lake, and before Shen Fan had time to be happy, then "it was dark", and after a long time, the thick fog dissipated and the waves were calm, and the island in the middle of the lake, which seemed to be close at hand just now, disappeared again.
Every time the fog is shrouded, the visibility is almost zero, and what is happening outside the ship is not visible at all, as if everything is shrouded in thick fog, just like the classic line, "As soon as the eyes are closed, the day is over, and when the eyes are closed, if they are not opened, this life is over." ”
Shen Fan felt that he was playing a game of closing his eyes when it was dark in this big lake, Shen Fan was even thinking about whether there would be a killer when it was "dark", not that the killer should kill when it was dark, just when Shen Fan was thinking about whether he could end the game by leaving a last word, the sky lit up again.
Shen Fan walked out of the cabin and came to the deck, where Shen Fan found that Meng Hong was already on the deck.
There are a total of five ships in the fleet this time, Shen Fan and Meng Hong are on one ship, Zhang Xingyuan, Fang Song and Li Feng are each on the same ship, and the remaining one is in charge of a smart and clever mid-level general.
Now the five ships are scattered, according to the current scene, the wind and waves are very strong, but I don't know why the ship is not damaged at all, Shen Fan specially found each ship equipped with sailing experience soldiers feel very strange, according to the volume of this small transport ship, it is not vulnerable in the face of such a big wave, but the strange thing is that the hull is not damaged at all, but the fog shrouded is that the huge turbulence that makes people dizzy is something that everyone really feels.
Shen Fan asked the soldiers on the ship who had experience in going to sea why, and they couldn't answer why.
Shen Fan observed on the deck and found that this time the ship was lucky and the boat was carried not far from the island by the waves.
Although it is not far from the island in the middle of the lake where the order to build a village is hidden, there is no help from any external force, but with the naked eye, Shen Fan can only see a rough idea, and the island seems to be surrounded by a thick fog, which appears and disappears from time to time, and it is not real at all.
Shen Fan secretly sighed in his heart: "It would be nice to have a telescope at this time!" ”
Shen Fan thought of this and glanced at Meng Hong beside him, and then asked, "General Meng, you may have observed that island in the middle of the lake?" ”
Meng Hong also shook his head helplessly: "Back to the lord, there seems to be some special energy shrouded in that island in the middle of the lake, although the eyesight of his subordinates is far beyond that of ordinary people, but he can't really see it!" ”
Meng Hong's answer completely extinguished the small flame in Shen Fan's heart.
Shen Fan's current situation can no longer be described as embarrassing, it is simply quite embarrassing, now he can't leave if he wants to, and he can't go if he wants to.
Shen Fan could only hope that the next time it was "dark", the waves of the big lake would bring the boat to the island in the middle of the lake or leave the big lake. Although this doesn't show much.
In fact, from the first time from dark to dawn, Shen Fan was looking for the location and direction of each ship's movement, but he knew that Shen Fan had not found any pattern now, as if the movement was completely irregular.
Shen Fan shook his brain, which had almost activated the backup hidden energy in order to find the pattern, which was really head-scratching.
Shen Fan couldn't think of any rules after thinking about it, as if the movement was completely random, Shen Fan thought of Meng Hong again, and looked at Meng Hong with hopeful eyes again.
Meng Hong saw Shen Fan's eyes, as if he understood the meaning revealed in Shen Fan's eyes, and after pausing for a second, he shook his head.
Meng Hong shook his head as if to say that he hadn't found the pattern of every movement, and the small flame that had been extinguished in Shen Fan's heart was ruthlessly poured with cold water again, and it was still a big bucket of cold water.
Shen Fan knew that the food brought in the boat was enough for a boatload of people for ten days, if he saved a little bit of the top of the sky for fifteen days, if he hadn't left this big lake or found the island in the middle of the lake within fifteen days, it would be completely over.
"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't..." Shen Fan kept muttering quietly, if it was someone else, I would have thought that Shen Fan was crazy, but Meng Hong didn't say anything when he saw Shen Fan's chattering appearance, he tried his best to keep himself from making a sound, and even lowered the sound of his breathing as low as possible, for fear of disturbing Shen Fan.
Meng Hong knew that whenever his lord was like this, he couldn't be disturbed, Shen Fan was not crazy or anything, but thinking, Shen Fan was like this when he was thinking, it was not a quirk, it was a unique personal habit.
Although Shen Fan was chattering, his mind was thinking rapidly.
Shen Fan first recalled in his mind the post he had seen in the forum of his previous life, that is, the adventure post of the order to build a village on a ground level.
Shen Fan recalled the content of that post repeatedly in his mind, and then made sure that the author of that post had never mentioned such abnormal weather in the Great Lake, and recalled it several times to rule out the possibility that it was his own mistake.
Such an important thing should be highlighted in the post, but why didn't he mention it, is he trying to hide something? No, if he wanted to hide something, he wouldn't have made that post, and since he had sent that post, it meant that the island was of little value...... Could it be that there was no such weather when he came, shouldn't it, the days he came were even, he said that only in the even number of this big lake will appear....
Shen Fan seemed to be stuck in some kind of dead loop.
After a while, the thick fog came again, which interrupted the thoughts, the thick fog shrouded the lake, and the hull of the ship began to bumble, Shen Fan and Meng Hong left the deck and returned to the cabin, such a strong wind and waves were dangerous outside.
It's like this for a while, and it's dark for a while, as if I'm playing a game of please close your eyes when it's dark.
Shen Fan had been sitting in the cabin and had not worked overtime, and Meng Hong had also been beside Shen Fan, silently waiting for Shen Fan to think.
Shen Fan always felt that he had forgotten something, just like catching a loach in the mud, whenever he was about to catch a loach in the mud, he was slipped out of his hand by the flexible loach, and even a few times he had pulled the loach out of the mud, but he was escaped by the loach in mid-air, Shen Fan's heart was like this.
The feeling of suddenly forgetting everything as soon as he thought of something had always appeared in Shen Fan's mind.
Shen Fan seemed to be competing, and he kept playing with himself, as if he could understand all this by catching that "loach".
I don't know how long it has been, and the game in Shen Fan's mind has lasted for no time.
Shen Fan seemed to be deflated, and suddenly sat down on the ground, but the "loach" still hadn't been caught.
Meng Hong saw Shen Fan suddenly collapse and quickly helped Shen Fan up, and said, "Lord, are you okay?" ”
"It's fine!" Shen Fan replied weakly, although it seemed that Shen Fan was very depressed, but Shen Fan knew that he had no problem but a headache, and the collapse just now was purely a strong blow to his confidence.
Although Meng Hong heard Shen Fan say that it was okay, he still confirmed again: "Lord, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, I can get up on my own." As he spoke, Shen Fan stood up.
"How many times have it been dark and dawn in the past?" Shen Fan asked, Shen Fan, who had been playing with the loach in his mind, consciously ignored all the things in the outside world.
"Lord, ten times have passed just now, and it has been dark and dawn....." Meng Hong thought for a while and said.
"Ten times, it's dawn and it's dark, so much time has passed...... But why am I not hungry, General Meng, are you hungry? Shen Fan shook his drowsy head and said casually.
"Hungry ......." Meng Hong hesitated when he heard what Shen Fan said.
Suddenly, Shen Fan suddenly came to his senses, and his eyes seemed to shine and said, "I won, I caught your cunning loach!" ”
