"Bypass?" Lin Ya also looked to both sides, "You can't see both sides of the swamp here, who knows how big this swamp is?" We don't have much food left. ”

"We can't go around, we'll go straight over."

Lu Haisheng's voice caught my attention, and I looked at him, who was looking in the direction of the swamp, not knowing what he was looking at.

"Just go straight over? How's it going? As soon as you step on it, it will start to sink, and there is no way to get out of it on your own after sinking, and besides, you can't see both sides of the swamp here, and you can't see the other side either! We can't fly, how can we get there. Fu Lingjun said while cleaning up the mud on his trouser leg, I am afraid that no one has more say in the problem of the swamp sinking.

"No, this swamp is long on the left and right, but it's not wide." Lu Haisheng looked at the direction of the swamp and squinted slightly, "You look at the distribution of these trees, their sparse spacing is still different from what we have here now, compared to what we are here now, but looking at the distance, those trees have become dense again, I think this should mean that the land situation there has also changed." ”

I squinted and looked in the direction Lu Haisheng was pointing, and sure enough, I vaguely recognized the trees that he was talking about becoming denser.

"How wide is this swamp if you can tell by the trees?" I squinted and asked about landing Haisheng.

"Probably no more than fifty meters." Lu Haisheng thought for a moment and gave such an answer, and added, "But I think that there should be just like here, and part of the land in front of the swamp is also sparsely vegetated. If you think about it this way, the actual distance of the swamp should be less than fifty meters. ”

It does seem that it is better to go straight through it than to go around this swamp.

"But even if that's the case, how do we get over this swamp?" Lin Ya frowned and looked ahead, "How to get over this swamp from above is probably our biggest problem." ”

Lin Ya's words silenced us, and I looked at the large swamp in front of me and wondered if there was any way for us to pass through the swamp.

"I might have a way to do that."

For a moment, our eyes were focused on Fang Ruoxi, and she seemed to be a little flustered, touched her nose and continued.

"I've seen a cartoon before, and there's an episode in it that's very similar to what we're doing now, maybe we can borrow the methods from the cartoon?"

"Cartoons?" Fu Lingjun frowned, "That's all something to deceive children, do you really believe it?" ”

Fang Ruoxi also seemed to feel that the methods in the cartoon were a little ridiculous, and after listening to Fu Lingjun's words, her whole face turned red, and she didn't make a sound.

"Let's hear what she has to say." I said, although I don't really believe that cartoons will give us any inspiration for the current situation, but dead horses should be used as live horse doctors.

Thinking like this, I nodded to Fang Ruoxi, and Fang Ruoxi was encouraged by me, so she sorted out her thoughts a little and described the methods in the cartoon to us.

"Well, that's right, in that cartoon you made a raft out of a tree, which increased the contact area with the swamp so that it could slow down the rate of subsidence."

I lowered my eyes slightly, thinking about what Fang Ruoxi said. Sounds pretty reliable? Increasing the contact area also reduces the unit pressure, which does slow down the rate of sagging.

"And what about motivation? How do you make your way through the swamp? ”

It was Yu Pu who asked, I glanced at him, and I thought that Yu Pu also felt that this method was quite reliable.

"I remember using the reaction force!" Fang Ruoxi nodded, affirming his own statement, "Yes, it's the reaction force!" Tie a piece of wood with a cross, tie a rope to it, and throw it into a tree so that the cross and the branch get stuck, so that when you pull the rope, there will be a reaction force that will make the raft move forward on the swamp! ”

Reaction Force, I know the reaction force, listening to Fang Ruoxi's words, this plan may indeed be feasible?

"It should be possible" Yu Pu nodded slightly, "Give it a try, theoretically speaking, this method is feasible." ”

After listening to Fang Ruoxi's method, everyone had no objections, after all, a feasible plan - even if it just sounds feasible - compared to being helpless, anyone would choose the former.

"What time is it?" Lu Haisheng asked Yu Pu.

You really need to pay attention to the time, after all, nitric acid rain will come at a fixed time.

"Ten o'clock." Yu Pu replied, "After the half hour of digging out the cave to find shelter from the rain, we probably have less than four hours. ”

"Four hours" Lu Haisheng looked at the trees beside him, stretched out his hand and shook the trunk, "Enough, come, hurry up and finish the raft, we have to get through the swamp before the next rain comes!" ”

With Lu Haisheng's words, everyone moved, even Lin Chang and Chen Si were no exception, I think although they all have such and such careful thoughts, they can also tell when they have to contribute.

Fortunately, the trees on this side of the swamp are not too thick, and it is not too difficult to cut them down.

I watched Lu Haisheng wave the one in his hand—it was originally Wang Haobo's—and soon cut down a tree, which was then trimmed into neat timber by Lin Ya, Yu Pu, and Lin Chang, and then tied together by the strings that our girls had brought to form a raft.

Thanks to everyone's best efforts, after just over two hours, we were able to build a simple raft large enough to carry all of us.

Together, they carried the raft to the edge of the swamp and laid it down, ready to begin our plan to cross the swamp.

"Oh yes, although the raft can slow down our subsidence, but it can't completely stop the subsidence, after we start to cross the swamp, we have to keep moving forward, we can't stop, otherwise if the raft also falls too much into the swamp, I'm afraid we will be trapped in the swamp!"

"I understand that it shouldn't take much time just to get through this swamp." Lu Haisheng nodded, and motioned to Fang Ruoxi's words as well, "The rope and cross wood block are also ready, right?" Throw the pieces out and snap them on the tree, and we're about to go. ”

Lin Ya threw out the crossed wooden block tied in his hand, found a tree with a moderate distance and threw it out, and nodded to us after making sure that the wooden block was stuck on the branch, signaling that we could go.

Considering the characteristics of the swamp, we didn't dare to delay, and after pushing the entire raft into the swamp, we quickly went to the raft and sat down, and Lu Haisheng and Lin Chang pulled the rope together. Feeling that the raft had indeed begun to move forward under the pull of Lu Haisheng and Lin Chang, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

I took a closer look at Lu Haisheng and Lin Chang, the muscles on their arms were bulging, and I couldn't feel any relief when I looked at the expressions on their faces. In fact, I want to understand that after all, there are so many people, and the weight of the raft itself, it is not a simple matter to rely on the reaction force to move forward. Obviously, Lin Chang was also aware of this matter, so he was not lazy at this time.

The raft moved slowly and at a constant pace, and it was not long before it was a third of the way through the swamp, and I looked at the edge of the raft and could see the flow of marsh mud beneath the raft. If nothing else, we should be able to get through this swamp in no time.

I squinted and looked ahead, this time I could clearly see the change of the trees in front of me, indeed as Lu Haisheng said, this swamp must be fifty meters wide, so it is not too far to cross the past.

I had already rested during the rainy time before, and during that time, Fang Ruoxi had been taking care of Lin Ya, she hadn't rested yet, and she was tired now.

"Ah, don't leave." Fang Ruoxi turned her head and showed a faint smile at me, "I'm fine, you go and rest, I'll come." ”

I shook my head and forcibly took the fabric and water bottle from her hand, "I'll come, you go and take a break, you haven't rested for a long time, and your respiratory system won't be able to stand it if you go on like this." ”

Fang Ruoxi looked at Lin Ya hesitantly, and finally nodded, "Then I'll rest next to me for a while, and in two hours, you can call me up, and I'll replace you." ”

"Rest for a while, I'll call you if there's something, don't worry."

After persuading Fang Ruoxi to rest, I poured the water from the water bottle onto the cloth and replaced the one on Lin Ya's forehead, and sighed silently.

Looking at Fang Ruoxi's lying back, he couldn't help but speak, "Fang Ruoxi? ”

"Hey, what's wrong?" Fang Ruoxi agreed, turned over and faced me and waited for me to speak.

I looked at Fang Ruoxi, hesitated slightly, and then said, "Do you like Lin Ya very much?" ”

"Huh?" Fang Ruoxi seemed taken aback, got up directly from the ground, waved his hand at me indiscriminately, and said, "No!" There is no such thing! I'm just because Brother Lin Ya has always taken care of me, so I'm more anxious when he gets injured, it's not that it's not that what! ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that Fang Ruoxi had misunderstood my words, and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that." I just see that you are very worried about Lin Ya, and you also hope that he is safe. ”

"I'm calling you that." Fang Ruoxi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "Of course, Lin Ya is our partner, how could I not want him to be safe?" ”
