Xiao Zhonghua nodded and approached Chen Si. Chen Si asked, "When you were moving forward just now, did you find anything wrong?" Xiao Zhonghua shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong with it." ”

Chen Si thought for a moment, turned around, and stared at Gu Fengchun, trying to consult his opinion. Although Gu Fengchun has come into contact with some records about these ghost islands, most of the records are vague, and the ships that discovered the ghost islands generally only left records in the logbook and marked the direction on the navigation chart. Very few people set foot on the island, and even if they did, they wouldn't stay on the island for as long as they did. In other words, the fact that they got lost is basically not found in the records related to Ghost Island.

Of course, the account of the priest on the Dutch merchant ship is perhaps the most detailed. It records the disappearance of the captain, first mate, and others on the island. Could it be that they also encountered such a thing on this island and couldn't get out?

Gu Fengchun shook his head, but he was combing through what had happened in his heart. At this moment, the front of the line suddenly stopped. Chen Si frowned and asked, "What happened ahead?" ”

Soon, Tang Maiqiu walked back. There was a nervous look on his face. "Lao Chen, things are not good." Tang Maiqiu lowered his voice and said to Chen Si.

"How?" Chen Si said calmly. It was very different from the nervousness on Tang Maiqiu's face.

"Look at this." Tang Maiqiu took out the compass and said to Chen Si.

Chen Si looked down and found that the pointer was still moving. He couldn't help but feel weird, isn't this compass quite normal, what's all the fuss? But Tang Maiqiu said with a bitter face: "Didn't you find anything? ”

Chen Si shook his head blankly, but Xiao Zhonghua next to him said: "Old Chen, take a look, the pointer has deviated from the north and south, and now the direction of the pointer can point to the southwest, which is different from the position we measured before." Xiao Zhonghua's eyes immediately found the mistake. However, there is nothing strange about this, after landing on the island, the geographical location of the island was determined by him, so he is relatively sensitive to this.

Chen Si suddenly realized and said, "Yes, how could such a thing happen? Is it magnetic declination deviation? Or is the magnetic field here abnormal, interfering with the normal operation of the compass? ”

Tang Maiqiu shook his head and said, "No, there is no explanation for this, if we have to explain it, it can only be said that the island under our feet is rotating, so the geographical orientation of the island has changed, and we are moving in the direction according to the compass, so we will go wrong, and even return to the original place unconsciously." ”

"Makes sense, but it should be more than that. How to change the geographical orientation, we will walk in a straight line, we will definitely go to the coast, and we will not go back. Chen Si said solemnly.

"In this vast fog, there is no reference, and we can't be completely sure that we are walking in a straight line." Gu Fengchun reminded on the side.

"Well, that's good." Chen Si thought for a while, and then said: "This is easy to do, turn on a searchlight, put it on this side, and stabilize it towards the place where we are advancing, the light travels in a straight line, and with the hint of light, there will be no detours." ”

Chen Si's method is very much agreed with by everyone. Xiao Zhonghua immediately found a high-power searchlight, climbed a big tree at once, and tied the searchlight to a tree branch. The high-power lights emit blazing white lights, like sunlight shining through layers of dark clouds in the milky white mist, illuminating the sky.

Tang Maiqiu saw that the light did not shine far in the dense fog, only about a mile, but for now, this is already a very satisfactory effect, and there are a lot of searchlights with him, if it is effective, it can continue to be installed.

After doing this, it took a lot of time, and suddenly there was a sound of "rustling" behind him, and Chen Si's face changed. "Let's go, everybody." Chen Si decisively gave the order: "Leave ten people behind, Lao Xiao, you stay with me." Chen Si said.

"What voice is coming from?" Luo Xiaodan also heard the sound from the bushes behind him, and asked puzzledly.

"I don't know, I guess I was attracted by those Dead Wing Dragons in the camp." The ancient style is true.

Gu Fengchun guessed well, it was those centipede vipers who smelled this bloody smell and rushed from all directions. "Did you come out with a flamethrower?" Chen Si frowned and asked Xiao Zhonghua next to him. Chen Si thought that these sounds should be made by small animals such as poisonous snakes and centipedes, and the effect of spraying with a flamethrower was the best.

"Yes, there are large and small models, the longest shooting distance can reach 60 meters, the duration of the fire is also long, each team member carries a small bottle, the duration can basically reach one and a half minutes, this flamethrower can spray nearly 20 meters. The large team also carried more than a dozen bottles, each lasting nearly a minute. If you save some money, it is not a problem to stick to it for about ten minutes. Xiao Zhonghua patiently explained.

"Okay, get the players on the edge ready and pay attention to saving fuel." Chen Si said with a solemn face.

"Use a flamethrower here, aren't you afraid of igniting a mountain fire and trapping us here?" Gu Fengchun frowned and said. Don't think you'll be fine after a heavy rain, the fuel in the flamethrower can't even be extinguished by water, and the heat generated when it burns is so great that it can instantly evaporate the water from the trees and ignite it. Many of the trees here also secrete flammable resins, which can be devastating if they burn.

"No, it won't." Chen Si said confidently: "Even if you are burned to death, it is better than these little things to gnaw alive, right?" ”

Gu Fengchun smiled bitterly, "Okay?" Neither of these is good, it's better to be alive. ”

With Xiao Zhonghua's order, the team members were divided into two columns, one left and one right, and took away the bumper of the flamethrower in their hands, and the position was fully adjusted, protecting Gu Feng Chunluo Xiaodan and several wounded in the middle.

In addition to this, Chen Si also asked people to take out the realgar used to repel snakes and sprinkle it under his feet, so that it can play some role in driving away poisonous snakes, but Chen Si didn't know that the centipedes here are inhabiting next to the hot springs, and the hot springs contain a lot of sulfur smells......

Everyone's spirits were in a state of tension. The pace couldn't help but speed up, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many poisonous thorns in it, everyone would have left this place at a galloping speed. Fortunately, after twenty minutes, although the sound of rustling around did not stop, there was no incident of poisonous snakes and insects attacking people.

However, another unexpected thing happened. The searchlight, which had been pointing the team in the right direction, suddenly went out. Everyone was stunned, not knowing what was going on. Chen Si was the first to notice this, and immediately stopped. said to Xiao Zhonghua, who was with him, "What's the matter, this light is broken?" ”

Xiao Zhonghua shook his head and said: "Impossible, this is a product that has just been disassembled, how could it have broken so quickly, the battery can be supplied for at least three hours, why don't I go back and check it?" ”

Chen Si shook his head and said, "No, let's install another one here, it's too dangerous to go back and forth, and it's a waste of time." Xiao Zhonghua thought so, and immediately beckoned someone to bring a searchlight.

At this time, Luo Xiaodan shuddered, grabbed Gu Fengchun's hand tightly, and exclaimed, "Fengchun, did you hear any sound?" ”

Gu Fengchun was stunned for a moment, listened attentively, and said, "No, do you mean the sound of leaves?" It's always been there, don't worry, Chen Si has made corresponding preparations for this. ”

"Not about that." Luo Xiaodan shook his head, frowned and said, "Someone is talking, and it is in a foreign language, as if he is talking about something in his ear." Luo Xiaodan said.

"Do you still hear that?" Gu Fengchun patted Luo Xiaodan's cold little hand and asked.

"Nope." Luo Xiaodan said, "Wait a minute, there is again." Luo Xiaodan said nervously again.

Gu Fengchun hurriedly listened. This time, there were really some staccato sentences floating in the air, and Gu Fengchun hurriedly mustered up his spirit to carefully identify the source and meaning of the sound.

However, Gu Fengchun was very embarrassed, because he couldn't understand the voice at all. Chen Si and the others listened to Luo Xiaodan's words, and also stopped to listen carefully, vaguely as if they had heard something, but except for Chen Si's ears, which were more keen, and heard a little, the others didn't find anything at all.

"What do you mean?" Gu Fengchun asked Luo Xiaodan puzzled. He didn't make out the meaning, but he could tell that it was the Latin pronunciation. After all, he is also a master of ancient text decipherment, and the same language as the text has more or less the skill of recognition.

Luo Xiaodan's face turned pale. Obviously, she understood the meaning of these words. After a long time, she said: "What this means is that the devil of the night hides in the thick fog, and the dead will not reveal their secrets, and no one can leave this place alive." ”

Gu Fengchun nodded, glanced at Chen Si, dealing with this kind of strange thing, Chen Si should be an expert. According to Luo Xiaodan, there should be ghosts and the like here, although Gu Fengchun doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but after communicating with the mysterious female voice, he doesn't doubt the existence of ghosts in his heart, ghosts are just a form of spiritual power condensed by human beings after death, similar to the spiritual existence of prehistoric humans, but it is far from reaching the strength to continue to survive, and will gradually disappear into the air, and it is not a terrible monster. Chen Si also nodded in understanding and said, "Don't worry, we will leave here safely and unscathed." ”
