Chapter 1697: The Strange Passenger (3)
I tapped her the head, "Getting to the point." {:} ”
"Of course, Niuniu checked other things for complete and complete affirmation." Little Lori grinned, completely guiltless: "Look! ”
As soon as she stretched out her hands, a small white medicine bottle appeared in front of me.
"Niu Niu, you actually stole something from me." I glared at her fiercely, ready to settle accounts with her. The medicine bottle in Niuniu's little hand was very small, and there was a label with the words 'scopolamine' written on it.
I pouted: "Isn't it just seasickness medicine, what's so strange about this?" ”
Scopolamine is a commonly used medicine for motion sickness and seasickness.
Niuniu shook her head: "Brother, you can see clearly." Niu Niu doesn't steal things. ”
Indeed, although little Lori often does things that I can't understand, and even makes me lament that the generation gap is too deep. But it's never without reason.
I took a closer look at the label. Scopolamine is only one of the ingredients in this bottle, and the drug is mainly used to treat motion sickness.
Motion sickness is caused by a chaotic array of motion signals received by the brain. The inner ear perceives the direction of movement, the eyes perceive the movement space, and the skin, muscles, and joints perceive their own movements.
But on a cruise ship, carrying medicine for motion sickness with you is too sparse and commonplace.
Continuing to look down, there seems to be a row of tiny red letters on the label, mentioning the scope of application of the drug:
The scope of application of this type of drug is the symptoms of vertigo in a calm state such as land after adapting to a dynamic state.
I frowned.
Although the vast majority of people get seasick when transitioning from a relatively static environment on land to a floating environment at sea, some sensitive people can also get seasick in calm sea conditions. And some people are not sensitive and only get dizzy when the wind and waves are high. Children and women over the age of 2 are more likely to get seasick. Usually seasickness disappears naturally after 2 days of adaptation, but after adapting to the dynamic environment on the ship, you will feel dizzy again when you return to land.
There doesn't seem to be anything strange about that.
Seeing my puzzled expression, Niuniu said mysteriously: "This medicine can be seen from the description, mainly to solve the dizziness from the ship to the land, from dynamic to static. But if Niuniu told her brother that the sister who looked like an aunt, her suitcase was full of this medicine, and most of it had been opened. Brother, what would you think? ”
When I heard this, my mouth grew in surprise.
If what Niuniu said is indeed true, then it is basically certain that the young and beautiful girl just now is taking medicine for dizziness for a long time. This means that as long as she steps on the ground, she will constantly feel dizzy, uncomfortable, and vomiting.
"You mean, that sister, the earth spins?" My voice was a little hoarse. It's weird, it's really weird!
In this world, it is indeed a rare disease, and about one in tens of millions of people will suffer from similar symptoms.
There is a scientific name in academia called automatosis.
People who suffer from this disease, they are unable to adapt to the movement of the earth, they are dizzy of the rotation of the earth.
Damn, there might be a lot of weirdos on this ship. When you meet two people in a row, you can be called a weird guy. An otaku with a large suitcase, a person who looks very similar to the dead Shi Yueying, and also suffers from self-rotation disease.
Perhaps as Niuniu said, this Oriental Cruise is by no means simple.
The Niu Niu at her feet kept looking at the place where the girl had just disappeared, not knowing what she was thinking. After a long time, she asked lightly: "Brother, are you hiding something from me?" Are you even hiding it from Sister Li Mengyue? ”
I felt a thrill in my heart, and I really didn't know how to answer.
Fortunately, a stiff and monotonous female voice came from the radio at the right time and relieved me.
"Attention passengers travelling on the Eastern Cruise Line, please note passengers traveling on the Eastern Cruise Line. Please board at the ticket gates, the cruise will leave the pier in 10 minutes......"
I pulled Niu Niu and stepped onto the deck of this cruise ship with mixed feelings.
But I don't know at all, no matter how careful I am, I will do my best. Greeted by an unpredictable horror and weirdness
Destiny!
Some people say that at dawn, you can only see one sun. And when it's dark, you can see countless suns. As is often the case, there are two sides to this.
It's just up to you to see if you can keep up with the changes.
As I walked, I cautiously watched the cruise ship beneath my feet.
Cruise tourism is a form of tourism that has flourished after economic development has reached a certain level.
At home, this is especially true.
Although the current cruise line is actually shrinking, cruise ships have their economy and practicality, and are especially popular in developing countries. Cruises, in particular, are often aimed at a particular group of people.
The Oriental Cruise ship that Niuniu and I took was a flight that belonged to most special groups.
Internationally, cruise ships can be divided into large cruise ships, medium-sized cruise ships and small cruise ships according to the size of cruise ships.
Large cruise ships generally carry more than 2,000 passengers, medium-sized cruise ships generally carry 1,000 to 2,000 passengers, and small cruise ships generally carry less than 1,000 passengers.
According to the waters of the cruise ship, the cruise ship can be divided into ocean cruises, offshore cruises and river cruises. Ocean cruises generally have a longer voyage, with a duration of about 10 to 15 days, or even longer. Offshore cruises and river cruises have shorter voyages, with a duration of about 7 days or less.
By analogy, the Oriental Cruises is a river cruise. Only more than 400 people were taken, starting from Huocheng Wharf, driving along the Yangtze River for 8 days, enjoying various Yangtze River scenery and cities along the way, and ending in Shanghai.
Similar cruise lines are actually very sparse and commonplace, with departures almost every day. Nothing surprising.
As mentioned earlier, the main passengers of this ship belong to a certain special group of people. In fact, the so-called special does not mean that it is really special, as long as everyone does not die, they will eventually become them.
Because more than 300 of the passengers were elderly. It is also commonly known as sunset red travel. The elderly often live in third-class cabins because the tour price is cheap.
Those who have been on cruise ships know that cruise ships are often divided into four sections.
3rd class, 6-8 people in one room. 2nd class, 4 people. The first class is a standard room.
