Chapter 229: The Nameless Island
When Cheng Shi heard that Carl's truck was heading for Guangxi, his first reaction was that he wanted to cross the border into Vietnam.
"Xiaoqiao, the speed of the truck is limited, it is impossible to run too fast, can you detect the approximate location of that truck now?" Cheng Shi asked thoughtfully.
"The car has seen the car in the networked monitoring of a high-speed service area, which is about 430 kilometers away from us, and if the car does not make a big mistake in judging its driving path, the car can catch up with it before it gets off the highway." The information bridge replied analytically.
Cheng Shi touched his chin: "Xiaoqiao, it will be even more difficult to find when it gets off the highway, I don't care what method you use, you must catch up with it before you get off the highway." ”
"Understood!" The information bridge replied cheerfully.
"Landlord, are you going to start drag racing?" Yangyang's voice came from behind the driver's seat.
Cheng Shi turned his head and smiled: "It's a car chase, sit down." ”
Yang Yang saw Cheng Shi's abnormal smile, trembled, and hurriedly sat down in his seat and fastened his seat belt.
After nearly four hours of high-speed driving, Wuling Hongguang finally saw the truck in a service area, and at the moment it was parked in the service center to change tires, and it seems that the car's tires were seriously damaged by the previous sharp braking.
Cheng Shi saw the expansion of the trailer tires behind the truck, and speculated that it should be loaded with some heavy objects, so he didn't rush to let everyone get out of the car, he wanted to know what kind of goods were pulled behind the car, so he asked Wuling Hongguang to approach it quietly.
"I see Brother Carl." Kayla, who was sitting in the back, suddenly exclaimed.
Cheng Shi hurriedly glanced around when he heard the sound, and sure enough, he saw Carl squatting on the ground with the truck driver in blue overalls eating instant noodles.
"Your brother is quite down-to-earth, he learned the standard movements of eating instant noodles so quickly." Cheng Shi couldn't help but smile when he saw Carl eating instant noodles.
"I don't think he and the truck driver just met." Oldman frowned and analyzed.
Cheng Shi nodded, but he looked puzzled, and then muttered to himself: "It's too coincidental that you can meet an old friend just here." ”
Kayla and Barbara wanted to go down to greet Carl, but they were stopped by Cheng Shi, and he wanted to wait for the test report from the information bridge first.
"Master, there is a submersible in the container behind the truck, the structure is very complex, it uses high-strength alloy materials, it has the ability to dive into the deep sea, and it is a finished product that has been assembled, and this vehicle speculates that they want to dive to the bottom of the sea to carry out the mission." The information bridge reports the scan results in a spiritual connection with Cheng Shi.
Cheng Shi didn't quite understand their approach, if he wanted to build a submersible, why build it in the mainland? Isn't it more convenient to be by the sea? However, he did not dwell too much on this issue, and after briefly explaining the situation to everyone, he continued to wait and see.
Yang Yang saw that the people around him were eating, and he also wanted to go to the supermarket in the service area to buy food, but in order to avoid being discovered by Carl, Cheng Shi asked the information bridge to release some snacks for everyone to eat and play to relieve boredom.
After more than an hour of waiting, the truck was finally renovated, and the blue-clad driver and Carl got into the car on alert left and right, and then drove the truck out of the service area, while Wuling Hongguang quietly followed.
At this time, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and the cars on the road gradually increased, and the god car followed the truck from time to time, and it never attracted the attention of the truck.
When Wuling Hongguang drove with the car for three hours, except for Oldman, who was still reading, everyone else had fallen asleep, and there was only the sound of giants flipping books in the car for a while.
Just when the truck drove onto the Maoling River Bridge
The car seemed to suddenly lose control and plunged headlong into the rushing river.
Crunch......
The information bridge braked suddenly, and the six people in the car suddenly felt their bodies lean forward suddenly, but then they were bounced back into the seats by the seat belts.
The vampire girl thought she had been attacked by something, and with a whoosh, it disintegrated into a pile of small bats, and the car suddenly turned into a bat nest.
Cheng Shi suddenly opened his eyes, and saw that the scene in front of him was unknown, and suddenly seemed to be facing a great enemy: ", Xiaoqiao, what's the situation?" ”
"Landlord, the truck crashed into the river, and the bats in the car are vampire girls." Oldman stretched out his hand and patted Cheng Shi's shoulder and said.
After the little bat spirit figured out the situation, he regrouped into his human form and sat back in his seat.
"Master, this is the Maoling River, and the estuary of the river is the Beibu Gulf, and this car speculates that they use this as the entrance to the Pacific Ocean, may I ask the master to continue the pursuit?" The information bridge uses the speaker in the car to ask Cheng Shi.
Cold sweat broke out on Cheng Shi's forehead: "These aliens rely on the strength of their bodies, and they are too unreasonable to play their cards, right?" Is it necessary to make such a big move by jumping into the sea? ”
"I guess they must have some big plans, and this is the rhythm of not planning to come back at all." The information bridge analyzes.
Cheng Shi looked at the scene of the accident and found that several cars were parked on the side of the road to watch the excitement, and the river where the truck fell into the water could only see a piece of oil floating along the river, and there was nothing left.
A white sedan driver who was the first to see the truck fall into the river stopped on the side of the road at the moment, and called the police while looking down.
Kayla was a little nervous, but she wasn't worried that Carl would die, but she was a little afraid of losing her brother's clues.
After Cheng Shi stabilized his mood, he was not worried that he would not find Carl, he just waited for several cars at the scene to disperse, and then let Wuling Hongguang choose the opportunity to enter the water, and then continued to pursue Carl.
Twenty minutes later, the vehicles at the scene of the accident had basically dispersed, and Cheng Shi chose a time when there were no passing vehicles around, and let the information bridge enter the water immediately.
Wuling Hongguang had just been driving in the river for five minutes when the voice of the information bridge came from the car: "Master, this car has locked the position of the submersible, and as expected, their target is indeed the direction of the sea mouth." ”
Cheng Shi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you should be careful and continue to follow, don't be discovered, and see what they want to do?" With that, he turned to look at Kayla and Barbara and smiled comfortingly, and they were relieved.
A magic car and a submersible that I don't know if it is earth science and technology followed the direction of the Maoling River and soon came to the Beibu Gulf, and after arriving here, it officially entered the Pacific Ocean.
In order to prevent follow-up, the information bridge uses the depth of the sea water to maintain a vertical height with the submersible, but in fact, it basically goes hand in hand.
"This thing runs fast enough in the sea, and looking at its simple capsule shape, it doesn't take too much into the fluid structure, which is not like something that can be made by earth technology." When everyone in the car was a little bored, the information bridge suddenly shouted, maybe it was also a little boring, and deliberately found a topic.
Cheng Shi was stunned: "What?" You can't catch up with it? ”
"It's still a little more tender than the car, it's already running at full speed, and the car hasn't stepped on the gas pedal much." Information Bridge said proudly.
"Landlord, didn't you say you were going to the city to buy clothes?" Yang Yang muttered with displeasure on his face.
Cheng Shi turned his head and smiled: "They may take us to the Ocean Kingdom, and you can put on a whole fish skin when the time comes." ”
"Is that right for you to say in front of North?" Buba
La looked at Cheng Shi and questioned.
Cheng Shi looked at the mermaid sister with a frightened face, and looked embarrassed: "Brother is talking about fish skin, not mermaid skin, let's not be afraid." ”
The little mermaid pouted and glared angrily at Cheng Shi, and casually threw out a water ball and smashed it at him.
"Oops, I'll go!" Cheng Shi was washed his head for free, and he was immediately embarrassed.
The group spent more than three hours happily in the car by chatting, eating snacks, playing chess, playing mobile phones and other entertainment activities.
"Master, the submersible has begun to slow down and ascend, as if it is almost at its destination." The information bridge, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth to report the latest situation.
Cheng Shi looked up through the windshield of the car and found that it was still pitch black, so he said, "Continue to follow carefully, don't be discovered by them." ”
"Order!" The information bridge replied.
A faint ray of light poured into the car through the seawater, but the light did not look like the sun's rays, the light was yellowish, like the light of the dim street lamps at night.
After a while, the chariot completely surfaced, and a hazy and strange island came into view.
Cheng Shi looked at the time on his mobile phone and found that it was just five o'clock in the afternoon, although he didn't know how far the submersible had taken them, but he thought that even if there was a time difference, the sky would not be so completely dark, and the light that had just shone into the car was the light emitted by a lighthouse on the edge of the island.
"Xiaoqiao, are we still on Earth at the moment?" Cheng Shi asked puzzled.
"We are still on the planet, and our current location is somewhere in the Indian Ocean, almost halfway between Madagascar and Australia, and it is a real place where you can't find a village, and you can't find a store. The island in front of you is not marked on all the maps of mankind today, but this car knows the past and the present, and the island was recorded on the hand-drawn map of a seafaring team in ancient France, although the location is not too accurate, but it probably refers to this place, and the hand-drawn map is now on display in the Paris Museum. The information bridge replied reasonably.
"Ran that far?" Cheng Shi was a little surprised, although he didn't have much geographical knowledge in his head, he estimated that even in the western part of Australia, it should be afternoon, "How can it be night?" ”
"The car is being tested right now, and it seems to be obscured by a magic force field shield," Infobridge muttered, "This island has been discovered by people in ancient times, and now that human satellite technology is very mature, it is impossible for this island to remain undiscovered all the time." ”
"I don't think it's quite right here," Barbara said thoughtfully, looking around for a while, "the oceans on Earth have never been windless and waveless, but here in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the sea looks like stagnant water. ”
"The fog that rises from the island is not right, it looks like water mist, but it doesn't look like it's floating up from the water." Yang Yang also analyzed it as if he were doing something.
The sea as far as the eye can see is surprisingly calm, even a little weird, and the island will be floating clouds of mist from time to time, although it looks hazy and dreamy, but in this dark and oppressive space, it makes people feel very uneasy.
Looking up, the black clouds are churning, and I don't know if the faint light behind the clouds is the sun's light, but if there is no light yellow light from the lighthouse, it makes people feel as if they have come to a black and white world.
"Xiaoqiao, where's the submersible?" Cheng Shi was stunned for a long time and then suddenly asked.
"It's on the shallow beach just now, and the people in it should have landed on the island by this time."
Cheng Shi scratched his head and looked around again, and then spread his hands: "Then let's go up and have a look." ”
