Chapter 396: Deviation in the Wind and Rain

Su Man and Tian Xinyu made a light supper, everyone sat on the deck and finished eating, and the boat slowly sailed forward.

The boat of the team gradually moved away, and the group that had first noticed that the jar was chasing the light but did not catch it was now standing in a room with the jar in their arms, their heads bowed one by one, and one person on it was angrily counting down several people, and then smashed the jar to pieces.

The angry man smashed the jar and went to a room, the outside of which was all fenced with iron bars, and in the middle of an iron door there was a lookout window, and inside the body of a beautiful woman lay silently, and the man clenched his fist and slammed it against the wall next to the door, and then turned away.

The group's boat slowly sailed along the Aegean Sea, and their next destination was Turkey, a neighboring part of Greece.

It was already late, and after the shift was over, everyone else went back to the room to sleep, only Mu Caochen and Zhong Tao, who were on duty, were in the cockpit, one looked at the situation outside from time to time, and the other looked at the course and then helped check outside.

After a while, the two men were sitting in it chatting, when a strong wind suddenly arose on the sea, and the boat drifted in the wind uncontrollably.

"It's broken, the course has changed, the wind is too strong, go and call the senior engineer to help." Although Zhong Tao can control it simply, he still can't control this kind of weather.

Mu Caochen agreed and prepared to go out, but the wind outside was too strong and the door couldn't be opened at all.

"Forget it, you better not go out, this kind of strong wind may sweep people up, don't have any more accidents, I hope the huge rocking of the ship will wake them up." Zhong Tao saw that the door couldn't be opened, so he said to Mu Caochen.

Su Man was sleeping in the cabin of the space at this time, and he naturally didn't know the situation outside. But Gao Zhanbo woke up.

Seeing that the ship was shaking badly, he hurriedly put on his clothes and ran outside, but it was stormy outside, and it was very difficult to get out of the cabin.

By the morning, the rain had finally stopped, and although the wind was still strong, it was much better than last night. At this time, the people also rose up one after another. Last night's storm, the sound of rain and wind rocking the boat made most of the others wake up. But I couldn't get out of the cabin either, and there was no other way, so I went back to sleep again, but Gao Zhanbo also stared at it in the middle of the night, and was relieved to see that everyone's boat was shaking badly, but there was no special danger.

Su Man got up early in the morning.

"Cao Chen, Zhong Tao, didn't you two take over last night?" Su Man asked suspiciously. Isn't it clear that they are on duty?

"Vine, don't you know?" Zhong Tao asked rhetorically.

Su Man looked inexplicable: "What do you say you know?" Did something happen last night? ”

"That's what happened, there was a big storm last night, and then the course was off course, and it was too stormy. I couldn't get out at all, and the people in the squad couldn't come out to replace them. So we both had it for the night. Mu Caochen explained to Su Man.

"Oh, then you two go get some sleep! Oh, drink some water before you go to sleep. Su Man knew what happened last night, and hurriedly took out a bottle of diluted mountain spring water and poured a glass for each of them.

The two of them took the water and drank it down. Then he said a word to everyone and went back to sleep.

"Senior Engineer, how far have we deviated from our original course?" Su Man asked.

"I don't know, we used a satellite locator to measure just now, but today's signal doesn't seem to be good, and we haven't found out, so we can only drift first, and then find the channel when we can locate it." Gao Zhanbo replied.

After hearing this, Su Man nodded and said to Gao Zhanbo: "That's okay, as long as everyone is safe, then you should pay more attention to the signal situation!" ”

Everyone had breakfast and went their separate ways to find something to do. Now I'm used to drifting on the sea, so I don't need any special instructions.

After drifting aimlessly on the sea for more than a day, there is still no signal, except for three meals to eat together, everyone spends the rest of the time looking for projects to pass the time.

Like Xuan Yuer and Wan Haoqi, they always play in the entertainment room, while Zuo Ning practices her sprint on the deck, and Lu Wei and Mu Caochen always find a corner to practice qi.

The others chatted and fished with rods found in the cabin, but none of them had been caught yet.

Su Man was bored lying on the railing of the boat and looking at the blue sea, suddenly a layer of light refracted his eyes flashed, blocked the light with his hand, and vaguely saw that there seemed to be land in the distance, and then Su Man ran to the top of the previous floor, tiptoed to look into the distance, it seemed to be really land, and then ran down again.

Trotting to the cockpit, Su Man pointed to the distance and said to Gao Zhanbo: "Senior engineer, I see that there is land over there, let's drive over, at least on the land, we can know where we are now through some Peugeot." ”

"Okay, when I change direction, we'll drive there and have a look." Gao Zhanbo hurriedly set the ship's course in the direction that Su Man pointed out.

After approaching, it was really land, which made Su Man very happy, although he didn't know where it was? However, it is much easier to confirm the bearing on land than at sea.

After driving the boat along the coastline for some distance, the group finally found the port, which was relatively clean, and the smell of dead bodies everywhere was naturally not so unpleasant.

It is a very large harbor with two breakwaters and a long, narrow island outside the port.

Further inside, they saw a white, castle-like place on the long and narrow island.

At this time, everyone also came out of the cabin, and when they heard that they saw that the land was going to change course, they all came out one after another, at this time Wan Haoqi suddenly said: "Isn't this the original site of the Alexandria Lighthouse, one of the Seven Wonders of the World."

"Wanwan, do you know this place?" Su Man hurriedly asked.

"This is Alexandria, this is Egypt, I've been here before, it's an attraction." Wan Haoqi replied.

"Huh? We're in Egypt? That's a lot off course! Su Man took out the map and looked at the location of Egypt and said.

"I'm sure it's Egypt, and you'll know when you go up." Wan Haoqi continued.

"I didn't say I didn't believe it, but it was just in time, anyway, I was going to come to Egypt from Turkey, so it's okay to come first!" Su Man was not in a hurry at all.

Egypt is one of the four ancient civilizations, and there are a lot of mysterious events in Egypt, which is very in line with the conditions they are looking for, so Su Man originally planned to come, but he didn't plan to come so early, but this time he came to Egypt first by mistake.

"Su Man, are we going to land here?" Gao Zhanbo in the cockpit pushed open the door and asked Su Man.

"Well, let's go from here, and since we're here, let's look for Egypt first." Su Man replied.

"It's time to Egypt! I also like it here, I'm going to see the pyramids. "Xuan Yu'er doesn't care, as long as she is with everyone, she can find joy wherever she goes.

The team's boat found a pier near the corner and stopped, and then everyone got off the boat, Su Man put the boat away, and the team walked outside.

Bypassing a few fences, everyone walked out of the dock, and as they walked, Xuan Yu'er asked Wan Haoqi, "Didn't you say that lighthouse?" Why doesn't it look like it at all? It's kind of like a castle. ”

Wan Haoqi smiled: "This is indeed a castle now, it is Gabeyi Castle, this castle was built on the basis of the original site of the Alexandria Lighthouse, one of the seven wonders of the world. And the lighthouse of Alexandria is actually long gone. ”

"Why is it gone? So what did the former Lighthouse of Alexandria look like? Xuan Yu'er continued to pester, Wan Haoqi asked.

Wan Haoqi smiled and replied: "It is said that the former Alexander Lighthouse was 120 meters high, and with the base of the tower, the entire height is about 135 meters. The tower consists of four floors, the first floor is a square structure, which contains more than 300 rooms of various sizes, which are used as fuel depots, engine rooms and staff dormitories; The second layer is an octagonal structure; The third floor is a circular structure with 8 stone pillars surrounding the dome light tower; On the fourth floor, there is an 8-meter-tall bronze statue of Poseidon in a standing position.

The outside of the tower also adopts the principle of reflection, and uses mirrors to reflect the light to the farther sea. Daylight is reflected by a mirror during the day, and the ship is guided by the light of a fire at night.

The whole tower is not only beautiful and elegant in appearance, but also has a strict and complex internal structure. There are more than 50 rooms on several floors of the base of the tower, which can be used for accommodation, office, and can also be used as special rooms for astronomers and meteorologists to observe celestial phenomena.

In order to overcome the monotony and seek the artistic visual shape of the whole building, there are many floor-to-layer windows equivalent to those of buildings. The lower floor of the tower has a wide interior, from which a sloping spiraling passage to the top of the tower was built. There are also steps on the inclined ladders on the middle and upper floors of the passage. In the middle there is a manual lifting device equivalent to a modern elevator, which is used to transport the torch fuel and various items, ensuring that the torch will continue day and night all year round.

It's a pity that these miracles were artificially damaged by later generations. ”

"It's a shame that such a powerful building was destroyed. But according to you, this lighthouse of Alexandria is so complicated? Is this really an ancient building? Xuan Yu'er asked incredulously.

"Of course, that's why it's listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World! You can make it casually, how can it be so easy to be selected. Wan Haoqi replied.

As he spoke, everyone had already left the port, and when they came outside, Su Man turned over the team's car, and then everyone got into the car.
