Chapter 5: Fantasy Rafting

Someone is in distress and is sending a distress signal. But where does the drifting bottle come from, and where does the vast sea begin?

Yi Pinlan immediately said: "Someone asks for help, we have to go to the rescue." "If she can't help her, she has no idea.

Xiaoling laughed at herself: "I still want to save people, save ourselves." is also a fallen person in the Dead Sea, and he can't protect himself and pretends to be selfless. ”

Guanglong also persuaded: "Yes, I don't know how many years the drifting bottle has been drifting, and besides, we have no direction, we will only waste our time." ”

Yipinlan hesitated. Mrs. Jin took her hand and said, "I know you're kind." It's a pity that you are in the Dead Sea, and it must be more than lucky. Since we don't know where the people are, let's go on the road, and we won't sit idly by when we meet them. What do you think? ”

Yi Pinlan nodded yes and decided to go to sea after dawn.

There are no sharks, only blue algae, and this is still a veritable Dead Sea, and everything that is unscientific has been rationally explained.

Surrounded by the flickering blue light, everyone rested and gradually fell asleep. Unlike in the past, there are countless small lights around them tonight, but it brings them a sense of security that they haven't felt for a long time. Guanglong quietly tosses the drifting bottle back into the sea, hoping that someone will find out. Of course, it was his wishful consolation that there would be no one else in the Dead Sea.

It's been a long time since they've slept so soundly.

When I opened my eyes, it was already the beginning of the sun. The blue algae that surrounded the ship are gone, probably having completed their breeding mission; Or they themselves are nocturnal and now swim back to their lair. Only the bare stone pillars remained in the blue sea, reminding them of the dreamy scene of last night like stars falling to the ground.

Simply trimmed, they are refreshed. Facing the sea breeze, they continued eastward.

On the way, Guanglong became interested in the influence of ocean currents, and preferred to leave his fate to God. So he asked Jin Lao while paddling: "Old man, you said that if we don't paddle, will the current take us to where we should go?" ”

Jin Lao smiled: "I haven't studied ocean currents. I think ocean currents are also sub-regional, like the blue ocean that we pass through, and there should be new currents in its range, like the continents that are divided. And the direction of the wind also affects the direction of the ship. If you take advantage of the currents and the direction of the wind, you will ride the wind and waves, and be the king of the sea. ”

Xiao Ling pouted and said, "I know that I am lazy, if you don't hurry up, when will we go out." She was so hungry that she ate the last of the food she had brought from Prison Island, leaving only the blue algae she couldn't bear to look at. Guanglong didn't bother to argue with her.

Yi Pinlan paddled and said, "You can't leave your fate to God. The sea we face is more complicated than I imagined, and we can only get out if we work together. ”

Guanglong sneered: "Is there anything more painful than the Dead Sea?" You can't even taste a single piece of seafood. "Blue algae is certainly not a seafood concept.

Yi Pinlan said solemnly: "It's much better than the Dead Sea, and the New World doesn't call it the Dead Sea." If memory serves, the map shows the Sea of Bitterness. ”

Guanglong had a flash of inspiration. The bitter sea is boundless, and the shore is the back. They really have to go back to have a chance to live.

Jin Lao bowed his head and said, "Well, the bitter sea." It is worthy of its name, and the salinity of the sea is matched with the word bitter. Our adventure is also bittersweet. ”

In Guanglong's consciousness, the suffering they experienced was not worth mentioning. Worse awaits them.

Mrs. Jin stood up suddenly and said happily: "It's really bittersweet." There is land. ”

They were all agitated, and they couldn't believe they could see the ground. Chu Chu ran and climbed the mast to check, shouting happily.

Following the direction of Mrs. Jin's finger, Guanglong saw a small island floating alone on the distant sea level.

After ten days of wandering in the sea, I finally saw the island I had not seen for a long time. Their jubilation was understandable. Hinaling almost cried with joy.

But they didn't rejoice for long. The island is far away, and after rowing for more than 2 hours, I feel that it is still on the horizon; And the island is really small, and the closer they get, the more disappointed they are.

The island is about 40 square meters, equivalent to the size of a one-bedroom, and there are two crooked unknown trees on it. Nothing else, let's call it Twin Tree Island for the time being.

The two trees are not straight, but extend on both sides towards the sea. The bare trunk and crown of the tree are luxuriant, and I wonder if there is fruit in it or if it can be eaten. Although Xiaoling sometimes annoys it, it makes her hungry and unbearable.

Despite the small size of Twin Tree Island, they still feel a sense of belonging with their feet on the land. Together, they dragged the boat, which was actually a solid raft, ashore and tied it to one of the trees.

As soon as he stepped on the soft sand, Guanglong couldn't wait to lie on it and feel the beauty of the sunny sand.

Xiao Ling was concerned about the problem of filling her stomach and ordered Chu Chu to go up the tree to investigate.

Chu Chu roared and climbed up, which was a trivial matter. In a few seconds it disappeared into the dense canopy.

In a short time, several huge fruits fell from the sky. The crowd was overjoyed.

The fruit is pear-shaped, the size of a grapefruit, and the whole body is bright green, and it is salivating to look at. Guanglong couldn't wait to cut it with a knife, and the pale yellow inside was full of pulp, filled with fragrance.

After Guanglong cut it, he handed it to Hina Ling very gentlemanly. She was hungrier than anyone else.

Xiaoling didn't have time to say thank you, so she devoured it. The fruit contains a lot of juice ~ liquid, which also invisibly replenishes water.

Jin Lao was still puzzled: "There is no grass around the Dead Sea, how can there be trees and bear such sweet fruits." ”

Mrs. Jin stuffed a piece of pulp into Jin Lao's mouth and said with a smile: "The new world can't be viewed with common sense. ”

Yes, things in reality are often very different from what we think, and contradictions coexist. Maybe it's sweet because there's a lot of salt.

Everyone shares the sweet fruit, and the aftertaste of the lips and teeth is inexhaustible. Xiaoling was even more satisfied with eating, and the smile on her face became brighter.

And there was fruit that fell, and there were many on the trees. Hian Ling reached for it, but screamed. Guanglong saw that the fruit she threw out was actually a skull.

Could it be a crystal skull? Guanglong is full of anticipation.

When you hold it, it's an ordinary skull, and it doesn't have the luster of metal at all. Looking at the texture of the skull, it looks like it's been some years. How a skull is hidden in the canopy.

I saw Chu Chu poking his head out of the canopy, gloating, completely ignoring the endless curse of the already energetic young Ling below.

There must be something else at the top of the tree. Guanglong beckoned Chu Chu to throw down the unusual.

In an instant, a skeleton fell from the sky and fell apart after landing. There was also a skeleton hidden in the tree.

Yipinlan put together the broken skeleton. The upper body is broad, and the soles of the feet are thick, which are supposed to be the bones of an adult man. There is no clue to the others, what his identity is and why he has fallen here is unknown.

It is the people who are lost in the sea of suffering like them, the people who are waiting for rescue. Could it be that the drifting bottle was thrown by him? In the endless anticipation, hope and despair are reincarnated, and they die alone. No one knows who he is or what he's been through.

The torment was unpleasant, and they could not escape the same fate. Every time he thought about it, Guanglong was in pain. The bitter sea is boundless, and the shore is turned back.
