Chapter 19: The Island

After returning to the hotel, Jiang Jianlong used the Internet to check Estados Island in his room, and found that as Xiao Chuxun said, Estados Island has the most primitive ecological glaciers and large groups of penguins and seals. The islands of Estados and Tierra del Fuego are twenty-five to thirty kilometers apart. But the Le Maire Strait between them often sets off huge waves, and it is a place that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and when Jiang Jianlong finished browsing these materials on the Internet, he came to Li Suyun's room and discussed with her: "I don't think we can go to that island with Xiao Chuxun tomorrow." ”

Li Suyun asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Jianlong replied: "The Estados Island that Xiao Chuxun told us about is actually a deserted and uninhabited island, where the environment is harsh and extremely cold, and most importantly, we can't get there at all.

Li Suyun then asked, "Didn't Xiao Chuxun say that there was a ship that could get there?" ”

Jiang Jianlong replied: "Then he must be a lie, I have checked the information, the temperate marine climate of Estados Island is very obvious, the sea will suddenly blow strong winds from time to time, ordinary ships can't get there at all, and Estados Island is a deserted uninhabited island, think about it, there is no one on Estados Island, that is to say, there is no route to that island, if we want to go, we can only charter a boat, if it is a chartered boat, the general small boat can't go, if you charter a big ship to go, how much does it cost." ”

Li Suyun then asked, "Then we have already promised him?" ”

Jiang Jianlong said casually: "Tomorrow we still have to go to Holch Newberry Airport, we can take a plane with him to Tierra del Fuego Airport, and then we will go to Tierra del Fuego according to our original itinerary, as for Estados Island, let's not go." We can find an excuse to part ways with him when the time comes. ”

After listening to this, Li Suyun said: "I want to arrange it according to what you said, we will start according to the existing plan and goal, I always feel weird about that Xiao Chuxun, although the time of the two of us is running out, but I don't want to have an accident at this time." ”

When Jiang Jianlong saw Li Suyun say this, he suddenly laughed and said, "The lifespan of the two of us is less than a year, and we are still afraid of accidents." ”

When Li Suyun heard him say this, he suddenly laughed and said, "Yes, it's really funny, think about it and I committed suicide a few days ago?" ”

Jiang Jianlong heard Li Suyun say this, and suddenly suppressed his smile again, he looked at Li Suyun's eyes, staring at her for a long time, Li Suyun saw Jiang Jianlong looking at herself, and suddenly felt a burst of embarrassment in her heart, she blushed and said, "It's a little late, you go to sleep." ”

After Jiang Jianlong heard this, he lowered his head a little embarrassed and said, "Okay, I'll go to sleep." After speaking, he left Li Suyun's room and returned to his room.

On the second day, Li Suyun and Jiang Jianlong came to Holch Newberry Airport as promised, and the two met Xiao Chuxun in the hall of the airport, Xiao Chuxun greeted them after seeing them: "It's good that you guys are here, with the two of you, we can form a group, which can be called the Three Musketeers of Tourism and Adventure." After Xiao Chuxun finished speaking, he laughed so much that he leaned forward and rolled his horse.

Jiang Jianlong smiled bitterly on the side and said: "You can travel, but the adventure is still forgotten." ”

Xiao Chuxun listened to Jiang Jianlong's words, he said: "Tourism and adventure are exciting enough, and it is not interesting to simply travel to take pictures and see the landscape." ”

Jiang Jianlong began to say bluntly: "Today's trip to Tierra del Fuego was originally our scheduled itinerary, and we will go, but Estados Island ......" Jiang Jianlong shook his head and continued: "I'm afraid we won't be able to go, I checked, it's too risky to go there, it's a deserted island, the surrounding strait is stormy, and it's basically a very risky behavior to go there." ”

Xiao Chuxun suppressed the smile on his face, and said with a strained face: "What, didn't you already say it yesterday?" Seeing that they didn't answer, Xiao Chuxun continued: "You can rest assured, I have been to that place once, it is not as terrifying as you imagined, I admit that it is a deserted island, but you want to see the glaciers and penguins, you can only go there to see, you have not been there and never know how beautiful it is, and I will tell you a good news, although Estados Island is an uninhabited island, there is a lighthouse on the island, which is used to point out the direction of ships sailing back and forth to avoid danger and run aground. There are still two tower keepers living on the lighthouse, because there are no supplies on the island, so every three months there will be a replenishment of supplies, which are food and daily necessities prepared for the tower keepers on the island, we can take their supply ship to the island, and that supply ship has crossed the strait back and forth on both sides of the strait I don't know how many times, there has never been an accident, there is nothing to be afraid of there. The last time I came there was on one of their supply ships. ”

Li Suyun asked, "Will they allow us to take their supply ship?" ”

Xiao Chuxun said: "Tell them good things, just give a little financial subsidy appropriately, I went there once, I know people over there." ”

Li Suyun then asked Jiang Jianlong: "Then are we going?" ”

Jiang Jianlong saw that what Xiao Chuxun said was so smooth, so he agreed: "If there is a supply ship, then let's follow over and have a look." ”

Xiao Chuxun saw that they agreed, so he smiled and said, "Okay, the time is almost up, let's board the plane." ”

Immediately after the three of them got on the plane, after a three-hour long flight, they came to the Rio Grande Airport on Tierra del Fuego, after leaving the airport, they found a restaurant and had a lunch meal, and then Xiao Chuxun took them on a minibus with a familiar car, this minibus was directly to Port Tetis, there was only one trip in the afternoon, because the car did not start they began to talk in the car again, Xiao Chuxun first said: "When the car drove to Port Tettis, it should be 7 in the evening." :00, but interestingly, because it's close to the South Pole, there are seventeen or eighteen hours of sunshine a day, so when we arrived at Port Tettis, it was still daylight. ”

This situation couldn't help but make Li Suyun feel particularly surprised, and she asked Xiao Chuxun, "Can you see the Southern Aurora on Tierra del Fuego?" ”

Xiao Chuxun replied: "If you are lucky, you can see it, but I have been here three times and have never seen it." ”

Xiao Chuxun then introduced: "Wait a minute, we will find a hotel to stay in first, and the supply ship to Estados Island should depart tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." We're going to get there and make accommodations with the people on the supply ship first. ”

Jiang Jianlong asked: "How do we calculate the cost?" ”

Xiao Chuxun said very proudly: "You don't have to care about this, go to one person or take three people to I estimate that the price is similar, anyway, they are all going to go, we are all Chinese, going out is to make friends, such a big and distant acquaintance is fate, you two can follow me over, when I make friends." ”

Li Suyun heard it and quickly clarified: "I think you misunderstood that we are not husband and wife. ”

Xiao Chuxun asked curiously: "It's not a husband and wife, won't it, you guys and a woman who come here from such a big distance to travel, what would it be if you weren't a husband and wife?" ”
