Chapter 44 Circumnavigation of the Island
Quan Hao was worried in front of the gate of time and space again.
He had everything ready, and it was a big problem to cross over.
He's not curious.
There used to be uncertainty in traveling through time and space. This time he not only knew where he was going, but he also knew how to get there. How could he be curious about the process of knowing the results?
Helplessly, Quan Hao had no choice but to put down the things on his body and habitually open his notebook for help. Waiting for the boot to start, he also humbly asked the cat. "Fatty, do you know how to be curious?" the fat cat was hunching the little hamster around his neck and walking around happily. Didn't want to pay attention to the master at all. Quan Hao, who was ignored, had no choice but to draw his own conclusions. "You don't know, you have to know that you died when you were young. ”
It was when the boot music of the laptop sounded that he thought of a solution. Movies, TV series, and books can obviously change people's moods. It doesn't have to be classic. Good works can naturally attract people and touch people. Bad work can also make you feel bad, and soap operas can make people bored. These are the moods, they are the world. There may be high and low moods, but the world is equal. Well, for the time being, equal. What is needed this time is curiosity, and the corresponding should be suspenseful works. But there shouldn't be too much horror content, otherwise the mood may shift to the side of fear. Maybe you can watch a detective-themed movie, just the big detective Poirot, there are a few I haven't seen yet, this chubby guy is funny at best, and he will never **. Classic detective films are the most inquisitive.
I found a resource on the Internet and clicked on it, quite classical music sounded, and the film began. Listening to the song, Quan Hao's thoughts spread out again. This way of changing the mood is only suitable for normal situations, and cannot cope with emergencies. Or do you want to find a way to change your relationship quickly, who is the best at doing this kind of thing?
Quan Hao shook his head vigorously. Let's talk about it later, watch the film first. He put his distress to the back of his mind for a moment.
..................
The method of watching movies has proven to be effective. Of course, it would have been better if Quan Hao hadn't muttered "Who is the prisoner?" in the island world for half an hour.
This time he came back with a lot of accessories to upgrade the wooden platoon. The reason why the wooden rafts were reinforced instead of bringing the ship directly from the earth was that the boat that could be brought over was too small. If you are not careful when crossing, you will fall into the sea if you do not stand firmly. The area of the wooden raft is large and stable. If you want to lengthen and widen, you can use local materials. This is something that is not comparable to the standardized ships on Earth.
This time the reinforced wooden raft is not a small fight. The structure of the wooden raft was greatly changed by him. A large drinking water bucket was laid underneath, a mast was added to the top, and a 10-square-meter sail was hung. In this way, the buoyancy and power of the raft are significantly improved. There is an extra stainless steel corner at the front of the wooden raft to split the waves. The stern is equipped with a simple rudder control zhì direction. It's a bit of a ship.
I tried to run, and the degree and flexibility of the wooden platoon were much stronger than before. The only thing that is not satisfactory is that the stability is a little worse. Because of the addition of a large number of empty plastic barrels, the buoyancy redundancy of the wooden raft is too much when it is lightly loaded, and the amplitude of being pushed and shaken by the waves is a bit large.
Ballast is needed to solve this problem. The northern peninsula is littered with sand, and large rocks can only be found in the south. Quan Hao sailed south along the coastline in a boat loaded with canned food and drinking water. Not only did he have to find the ballast, but he was also going to take the opportunity to sail around the island. The upgraded wooden platoon will support his sailing plans. The advantage of sea exploration over 6 is that most of the materials can be loaded on the ship, and people can travel farther and travel lighter.
The twin islands are shaped like ice cream cones, with the North Peninsula being a protruding semicircle and the South Peninsula being a cone-shaped cone. Only slightly twisted on the tip of the cone. If Quan Hao wants to go south, he must first make a large arc in order to get around the dome of the North Peninsula. Out of habit, he chose a clockwise direction, and the bow of the ship initially pointed east. Because of the southerly currents that circulate the island, and the northerly winds of force three or four, the boat can travel eight to eleven kilometers per hour. Along the way, the sand and gravel changed from delicate to coarse. Approaching the boundary between the North and South Peninsulas, the underwater seabed is sharply lowered, forming a circular blue hole. The water turns a deep blue. It's like the eyes of the sea looking through the inexplicable depths. The dim and eerie light not only makes people feel cold, but even the sea creatures hide far away. It is as if there is a mysterious force that has turned an area of several thousand square meters into a forbidden area for life. The straight cliffs at the junction of mountains and seas rush straight into the sea. There are no sandy beaches, and beyond the cliffs lies an unfathomable trench.
Further south, the water slowly becomes shallower. The fine sand brought by the ocean currents is deposited on the North Peninsula, and the underwater water here is mostly bare reefs and pebbles, creating an underwater world that is very different from the north. Schools of fish weave from reef to reef, colourful conch inhabits the shallow water, majestic lobsters are more than half a metre long, and the most spectacular are corals of various shapes. They grow in patches on the reef and connect in patches. At the bottom of the sea, a white forest is formed as far as the eye can see. Quan Hao carried dozens of beautiful pieces of coral onto the boat, but left them piled up like garbage. Maybe it's worth a lot of money on Earth, but here. Their only use is to act as ballast.
The beach here is small, only a small strip narrow by the sea. Not far from the shore are sparse plants, and the higher the terrain, the greener it becomes. The soil is sticky sandy with a slight black tinge. It wasn't until the only river on the southernmost island that the beach turned golden again. The mouth of the river is thirty or forty meters wide, and the water depth is also more than ten meters. It is enough for Quan Hao to sail against the current into the river.
The tip of the South Peninsula is elongated, like a curved infusion tube half-cut into the sea. Jeon Ho guessed that the twin islands were not what they are now. This narrow tip is probably the result of the alluvial sediment carried by the river year after year. It is more than a kilometer into the river and less than two kilometers in the east-west direction. There are no plants here, and you can see the sea from left to right. The bottom of the river is made of fine pebbles, which I thought was very smooth after being washed away by the water for a long time. After turning a corner, I went up more than a kilometer before there were more trees. You can see several kinds of fish swimming in the river, including the kind of fish that Quan Hao has caught that looks like salmon. Further up, it enters a dense forest area, where the river narrows rapidly as the terrain rises. The trees on both sides of the river meet like arched bridges, and the water flows so fast that it is impermeable to the wind and cannot be resisted by the power of the oars alone. Quan Hao didn't force it, turned the bow of the ship and went back.
