Chapter 1: Ghost Island
On July 10, 1831, in the western waters of the Kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific, a small island suddenly appeared due to an undersea volcanic eruption, and with the continuous eruption of the volcano, it gradually formed an island with a height of more than 60 meters and a radius of nearly 5 kilometers. However, while people are still talking about it and planning something, it disappears like a ghost on the surface of the ocean.
A few years later, when people had forgotten about it, it emerged from the sea like a ghost. According to historical records, in 1890, it was 49 meters above the sea, and in 1898, it sank 7 meters underwater.
In December 1967, it resurfaced, but in 1968 it disappeared without a trace. In this way, the island appeared many times, disappeared many times, and changed many times. In June 1979, the island grew out of the sea again.
Scientists predict that if the volcano does not erupt in the future, the island may still sink and disappear. Because the island appears and disappears like a ghost in the sea, it is called "Ghost Island".
There are more than 5,000 large and small islands in the sea, and one of them is called "Ghost Island", which covers an area of several hundred square kilometers, and it is said that it suddenly appeared on the sea in 1924.
Along the way, Lin Junfeng, who was wearing a camouflage uniform, was introducing that it is now popular for travelers to travel together to have a trip that says go, and the more thrilling the place, the more groups to go.
"Are domestic travelers so crazy?" She has been abroad for five years and doesn't know the domestic market, He Meijing asked in surprise: "Ghost Island?" ”
In the Atlantic Ocean southeast of Canada, there is an island called Seybull. The island is quirky, shifting and moving so fast that it looks like it's on its feet. Whenever there is a strong wind in the ocean, it is blown away like a sailboat for a sea trip. The island is 40 kilometers long from east to west and 1.6 kilometers wide from north to south, with an area of about 80 square kilometers and a crescent shape.
The island has traveled 20 kilometers eastward for nearly 200 years, moving an average of 100 meters per year, thanks to the sea breeze blowing day and night. Sable Island is also the world's most dangerous 'shipwreck island', where more than 500 ships have sunk and more than 5,000 people have been killed.
Therefore, the sea area in this area is known as the Atlantic Cemetery, the butcher's knife that destroyed the ship, and the ghost island of the Demon Shadow.
When she stepped on this inexplicable "ghost island" and looked up at the fog-like rain, rain-like fog, and the jungle that was entwined, He Meijing couldn't stop shivering.
The island resembles a primeval forest, dense jungle, green moss, full of rattans that stretch like long snakes, and tall trees that seem to occupy half a century.
"He Meijing, slow down." Wu Bing was also wearing camouflage uniforms, he and Lin Junfeng were small and wore the same pair of pants, and he was anxious when he saw He Meijing moving forward as soon as he got on the island.
"It's you guys who are too slow." He Meijing stopped where she was and waited for them.
The sandy beaches, under the rocks, conch shells, shells everywhere, and crawling crabs are obviously a rarity, but if you are adventuring, this is indeed a good place to go.
Lin Junfeng and Wu Bing are her college classmates, two years ago, the two of them partnered to open a private detective agency, and Lin Junfeng was her first love, just because she went abroad in a hurry in her sophomore year, and her sister He Lijing stayed, but she didn't expect her to have an accident, He Meijing looked around with a heavy heart.
"Ah Feng, I see that Liu Li and David Hu you found, don't you think there is a problem with the two of them?" The two of them hid in the cabin when they were on the boat and didn't come out, and as soon as they got on the island, they cowered and followed behind, and He Meijing asked Lin Junfeng in a low voice.
"The two of them are travel friends with your sister, I found Liu Li and asked him to take us to the island, he agreed without saying a word, but when he set off, he called David Hu again." Lin Junfeng pushed Wu Bing next to him and whispered: "However, the strange thing is that they look very stout in the photo, why do these two people look like bean sprouts now, I still wonder ......"
Although He Meijing had seen the photo, it was a group photo with her sister He Lijing, there were about a dozen people, and the photo was from afar, so she didn't pay attention to it.
"I've been observing both of them since they set off, and it's a bit abnormal." Wu Bing touched his chin: "I'll go to the rear, you two be careful." ”
"Xiaomei, I found that I haven't seen you for five years, your eyes have become sharper, and you still exude a strong force all over your body, and you have a fight with their special forces." Lin Junfeng couldn't think of the right words to describe this classmate from high school to college, and he was also a former lover.
"Five years!" He Meijing looked up at the dense forest and sighed: "Enough has changed a person." ”
Since He Meijing returned to China a few days ago, Lin Junfeng has been looking at her with his detective eyes, one meter seven tall, wearing black tights, outlining a perfect and sexy figure, wearing a black coat, a pair of black leather boots, and a big backpack.
There were five of them, each carrying a large backpack, and they were worried that she was too heavy, but they didn't expect her to walk like the wind, and she didn't even breathe, and she was more powerful than a man.
The bedrock on this island is bare, with protruding peaks, and the soil is thin and lacks fresh water. Camellias, palms, purslanes can be found everywhere, and cacti are everywhere. These plants are obviously short and stout in order to adapt to the strong winds of the sea, and many of them are precious medicinal herbs.
"There should be a lot of snakes on this island, and the color of snakes is generally yellow and black, which are non-venomous." Lin Junfeng walked in the front: "When I was a soldier with Wu Bing in the past, I walked through the old forest and ate hand-torn snakes. ”
"Why did you go to the army?" I still remember that in college, he said that his dream was to develop games, and He Meijing, who was walking behind, made an unintentional sentence that made the people in front look back.
Lin Junfeng looked back at those big eyes, but the doubts in his stomach were endured because of her sister's disappearance, he looked at her, and said seriously: "Because of you, you don't say goodbye, when you turn around, I will go to join the army." ”
That year, they were both in their twin years, but they were separated in the sweetest first love, until they met again five years later, which did not bring them surprises, they were like a piece of glass between them, they could see each other, but it was difficult to go further.
"Let's go!" The longing in his eyes was something she couldn't face, and He Meijing lowered her head and pretended to move forward casually.
Lin Junfeng couldn't soothe his excited mood, how many times did the words come to his mouth, but he swallowed them alive, uncomfortable but had to endure it, just because of her indifference and the alienation in her eyes.
It's not that He Meijing doesn't understand Lin Junfeng's doubts, it's just that in the past five years, not only has she changed, but the people around her have also changed, and she can't ask people to wait for her in the same place, because she is afraid that person can't afford to wait!
There was a rustling sound in the grass, and sometimes a birdsong overhead. It was full of cold, damp thorns, a mess of vines, and all sorts of weird ferns.
