Chapter 17: The Tides (Part II)

Shirley Yang smiled and said, "Why do you have to quote scriptures for everything?" Doesn't that seem particularly convincing? But what you said does make sense, to be in the same boat, we need to be united, mutual trust is extremely important, can you trust the boat boss Ruan Hei? ”

I had expected to be asked such a question by her, but I still groaned a little, thought for a while, and then said: "I only heard that Nguyen Hei is a Vietnamese Chinese, and he was exiled to the island for refuge, I don't know his past experience, and I don't know what he thinks in his heart, but the essence can be expressed through phenomena, and from the contact these days, I think he ...... I can be regarded as a trustworthy egg farmer, I have been in the mountains in the queue, and when I was in the army and doing business, I have come into contact with countless working people. Qb⑤、cOm/”

Shirley Yang said: "That's great, since you can trust him, you should be tolerant, and you have a reason to believe in the ship boss, so you shouldn't peep into the things behind the cabin and break the rules on this ship, although I also feel very curious, but I think we should respect the advice of the ship boss, which is called using people without suspicion, and suspects are not needed." ”

Under the persuasion of Shirley Yang, I had to forcibly hold back my curiosity, and promised not to break this taboo unless I had to, and then we returned to the cabin and began to eat Duo Ling's meal, which was prepared by her three meals a day, but the amount of water used on the ship was strictly limited, so the diet was very monotonous, and we took the opportunity to eat, gathered everyone together, discussed the most important things, and prepared for the imminent entry into the coral spiral, and we went from west to east at sea, Beyond the current bottomless trough, the topography of the seabed rises suddenly, bounded by the flute line of the submarine ridge, and the sea east is completely a coral spiral, which looks like a sunken archipelago. Surrounded by the deep sea, the seabed exhibits a large drop, and the spiral is very close to the surface of the sea.

The coral spiral is divided into two large coral reefs, the inner and outer layers, the extent is large, about 100 nautical miles in diameter, and its exact shape is completely unknown, and the area in the middle of the two layers of the spiral is subsided, and there are dense coral forests and trenches. Because of the two mountains under the sea in this area, tens of thousands of years of sea and air condensation, air storms and thunderstorms all year round, electronic equipment will often fail, and there are legends such as ghosts, fires and ghosts on the bottom of the sea, so in recent hundreds of years, few people dare to enter, some speculative explorers and salvage ships have risked their lives to go, and they have never returned, I don't know because they have lost their course. Or encountered some other shipwreck. In order to make a living, some egg farmers go to the sea to collect eggs, at most they only dare to go to the bottom iron tree outside the big spiral to collect eggs from inside, and never dare to cross the thunder pond half a step. Even Uncle Ming and his uncle never went in, and Uncle Ming's uncle was killed when he encountered a vicious fish under the water when he was working as an egg farmer outside, and the corpse was not allowed to return to his homeland.

The wreck carrying the "Qin King's Bone Mirror", called the "Mary Xiannu", is a private luxury cruise ship, belonging to a wealthy man in the South Seas, this ship deviated from the course in the storm, strayed into the coral spiral and sank, the only surviving crew described the sinking of the "Mary Xiannu". The bottom of the sea was illuminated by the light of the blazing fire, and the scene was as if I had witnessed the crystal palace floating and looming at the bottom of the sea.

There is a lot of oil and gas in the seabed of the South China Sea, and there are active volcanoes underground, which often erupt, but the oil and gas gushing does not have such great energy, and there are no submarine volcanoes in the sea near the coral spiral. There are only about one or two chances in a month.

In feng shui, the earth, mountains and stones in the world are divided into nine categories, including tombs, sites, shrines, ruins, covers, etc., the land of the ruins, the yin qi is the most abundant, and the essence of the sun, moon and stars can be accepted, it is said that the pearl of the old mussel on the bottom of the sea can respond to the moon, it is to borrow the yin essence of the ruins, from the two unique clues of the undersea yin fire and the south pearl, "Mary Xiannu" must be near the sea eye of the coral spiral, into the coral spiral, as long as the remaining veins of the southern dragon in the bottom of the sea, it is not difficult to find the shipwreck and the underwater forest where the old mussels are flocking.

The biggest difficulty that our salvage team is facing now is how to enter the dense coral spiral of the reef, and how to identify the direction without a compass if the weather is bad, which is also the biggest obstacle faced by all explorers who try to infect this huge treasure of the sea.

Fortunately, we have mastered the secret thaumaturgy of ancient Chinese tomb robbers, and the feng shui secret technique of touching the golden school captain has an accurate discussion of the remaining veins of the southern dragon, although the southern dragon starts from Mount Emei, and finally enters the sea from Zhejiang, but the largest residual vein in the sea extends to the end of the South China Sea, the sea air mentioned in feng shui, there is a part of the concept of tidal operation, if you look at the current principle, it actually refers to the ocean tides produced by the gravitational action of the moon and the sun, which is a periodic fluctuation phenomenon of seawater, because it is related to astronomical phenomena. Therefore, it is also called "astronomical tide", although the phenomenon of rising sea is the same, but in time artificially make a difference, day is the tide, night is the tide.

The moon and the sun are different from the earth, the gravitational force of the moon is more than twice as strong as the sun, so the size of the tide and the time of rise and fall are not fixed, mainly with the operation of the moon, coupled with the depth of the terrain of various sea areas, and the influence of factors such as the degree of diameter, in addition to the semi-diurnal tide that rises and falls twice a day, there is also a full day tide that rises and falls once a day, and a mixed tide that rises and falls twice a day, which is manifested as the tide level rises and falls in the lead straight direction and the tide rises and falls in the horizontal position.

In the coral spiral sea area at the end of the southern dragon, due to the disturbance of sea air, the most common occurrence is the chaotic mixed tide, and there is a high tide after the first and fifteenth day of each month, and the "Mary Xiannu" is at the full moon, encountered the storm surge and the astronomical tide concurrently shipwrecked, only to be swept into the coral spiral that is difficult for the big ship to enter.

Last night at sea encountered the water dragon, almost the boat sank, but this time the luck of the voyage is not bad, because of the full preparation, even if there are some twists and turns, the angle is not dangerous, did not encounter any big difficulties, and got a rare stone mirror ancient coffin, people who know the goods are all excited, at this time adjust the course along the edge of the trough wandering, sail until the sky is about to dawn, the sky is still black clouds, the sun and moon and stars can not be seen, the sea is high and the waves are urgent, the compass begins to fail, this is the omen of arriving at the coral spiral, After receiving the message from Uncle Ming in the Qianli microphone, Shirley Yang and I hurried to the cockpit, took out a wooden box and a black clay pot prepared in advance, and prepared to perform the secret technique recorded in the mountain reclamation, just waiting for the time to take advantage of the morning tide to pass through the reef group on the periphery of the coral spiral in one fell swoop.
