Chapter 189: The Floating Island That Suddenly Appeared
Li Xiaofeng looked in the direction of Li Xiaofeng's finger, and saw that in the distance there was a thick fog, and he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a small black dot on the sea.
"It should be an island." Li Xiaofeng said guessingly.
"But Brother Feng, when our fishing boat stopped here yesterday afternoon, we didn't see any islands around! And when I first came to the deck, I didn't see it, it was like it appeared out of nowhere. Li Xiaoliang lowered his voice and said, "I also observed it for a while just now, and it seems to be slowly getting bigger!" ”
Then Li Xiaoliang whispered to him again: "Brother Feng, do you think it will be some kind of ghost ship or something unclean?" ”
Hearing this, Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but glance at him and said, "Where is there anything unclean, don't think about it as a whole!" ”
But after he said this, Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but be a little interested.
He quickly opened the map and looked at it, and after confirming, he smiled at Li Xiaoliang and said, "Xiaoliang, do you dare to go over in a kayak with me to have a look?" ”
Hearing this, Li Xiaoliang shrank back, and then said to him with a wry smile: "Brother Feng, I think it's better to forget it, I think it's still quite dangerous!" ”
Li Xiaofeng glared at this guy who was strong on the outside, and then said with a smile: "Okay, if you don't go, you won't go, but don't regret it when you kid come." ”
As soon as he heard that he could not go, Li Xiaoliang hurriedly smiled and said, "No regrets, Brother Feng, I definitely don't regret it!" ”
Han Minghua, who was next to him, became interested when he heard it, and he said to Li Xiaofeng: "Fifth brother, I'll go over with you to take a look!" ”
Li Xiaofeng nodded, and then said loudly to several other crew members on the deck: "Is there anyone else who would like to go over and have a look together?" ”
Many people looked at the black spots that were faintly visible in the dense fog in the distance, and not only did they feel a little numb.
Many people on the deck just now also saw this thing, and it seemed that it suddenly appeared in the fog, and with the flow of the dense fog, it appeared and disappeared from time to time, and they couldn't help but feel a little weird.
So when Li Xiaofeng's words ended, the deck suddenly fell silent.
Just when Li Xiaofeng thought that no one else was willing to go over, he didn't expect Li Xiaoming, who was standing not far away, suddenly raised his hand and said to Li Xiaofeng: "Brother Feng, I'll go with you!" ”
This made Li Xiaofeng feel a little surprised.
The main reason is that I didn't expect this kid to look shy usually, but he was quite bold at a critical time. I remember the last time I went to help humpback whales clean barnacles, he also took the initiative to sign up.
Li Xiaofeng nodded with satisfaction, and said to him with a smile: "Okay, then count you in again!" ”
Then he looked around again and found that no one else spoke, so he said to Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming: "You two go and get the kayak ready, I'll go to the cabin and get something." ”
Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming nodded, and Li Xiaofeng turned around and walked towards the cabin.
After a while, Li Xiaofeng changed into a diving suit, walked out with a speargun in one hand and a bunch of things in the other.
At this time, Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming had already prepared the kayak and rope ladder.
Li Xiaofeng said to the two of them again: "You go to the cabin and get a few more snakeskin bags out, we should be able to use them in a while." ”
The two of them hurriedly answered again and walked towards the cabin together.
At this time, I don't know who notified Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun, and the three of them came to the deck together.
Li Yonglin couldn't help but say to Li Xiaofeng with some concern: "Feng cub, will you be in any danger in the past?" No, let's wait for the fog to clear before it passes! ”
Li Xiaofeng raised the fishing gun in his hand and said to him with a smile: "Dad, don't worry, it should be a floating island, there is no danger." Besides, don't I still have a fishing gun? ”
The so-called floating islands refer to some islands that appear and disappear in the ocean.
Some of this is due to tidal waves, while others are caused by volcanic eruptions or crustal movements.
People who don't know about such an island see it and think it's very weird to disappear from time to time, but in fact, such examples are not uncommon in the world.
For example, near the Italian island of Sicily, a small island with smoke suddenly emerged from the sea, and then the island expanded from more than four meters long to 4.8 kilometers in ten days, and even caused a competition between Germany, France and Italy.
Unfortunately, only three months later, the island sank to the bottom of the sea again. Scientists eventually confirmed that the island was caused by a volcanic eruption at the bottom of the sea.
There is also such a floating island near Haimen, Jiangsu, China, which only briefly surfaces when the tide completely recedes, and the whole island is composed of layers of oyster shells.
The small island in front of them now is somewhat similar to the one in Haimen. It is also an island that surfaces for a short time as the tide recedes.
Hearing his son say that it was an island, Li Yonglin was a little relieved.
Soon, Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming came out with a lot of snakeskin bags.
Then the crew helped to put the rubber boat down, Li Xiaofeng, Li Xiaoming and Han Minghua followed the rope ladder, took the prepared things and boarded the kayak, and then rowed towards the black dot in the distance.
The people on the deck saw the figures of the three people gradually moving into the distance, and their moods were different.
Li Xiaoliang saw the figures of the three people in the distance, and suddenly felt a burst of regret in his heart, always feeling as if he had missed something. He couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that this must be his own delusion.
Li Xiaoming and Han Minghua rowed the oars, and the kayaks were getting closer and closer to the black spot.
As the distance got closer and closer, the three of them finally gradually saw the appearance of the black dot clearly.
As Li Xiaofeng said, this is a group of islands and reefs that have just emerged as the tide recedes, and is composed of several islands and reefs, which is not small.
At this time, most of the reef is still underwater, and there are not many places outcropping, but as the tide recedes, the area of the surface is more and more exposed.
Soon the three of them rowed their kayaks to the side of the reef, and they could see exactly what the reef looked like.
This also stunned Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming.
I saw that this island and reef are densely covered with all kinds of large and small conch, scallops, and oysters, and it seems that the entire island and reef are made of them.
