Fu Zhiwen said this himself. However, Zheng Jie, a highly educated intellectual, refused to sell his account. He immediately sniffed and said, "Grandpa, what are you talking about? First, I still believe it. Second, strange forces and gods, feudal superstition, and is it possible in such an environment?"

Fu Zhiwen said: "it's really impossible by reason, but Xiaojie, Grandpa really encountered some abnormal situations before... Of course, it's not the best, not the best."

The quarrel between them didn't play any role in the current situation. I took out the compass contained in my bag. Compass and compass have exactly the same function, but they are more accurate and comprehensive than compass in some uses. When my eyes fell on a shaking pointer, my heart could not help sinking. I bit my fingertips, dropped a drop of fingertip blood on the compass, and immediately recited the formula in my mouth. "The sky is clear and the earth is clear. Worship the blood of the upper boundary and distinguish it for me."

When I looked at the compass again, the pointer that had been shaking stopped instantly. Just when I was secretly happy to be able to distinguish between the southeast and northwest, I didn't expect to say this to everyone before I had time to say it. The pointer shook again.

Bai Ling glanced at the compass and said, "is there any result?"

I sank, looked at Fu Zhiwen and said, "if there is really something strange here, after I cast the spell just now, the compass must be able to guide us. Judging from the current result, it is likely to be in line with another guess of old Fu, that is, there is an invisible magnetic field here. It is precisely for this reason that the compass and compass are invalid."

Maybe Zheng Jie heard my voice and hurriedly said, "I'll tell you, there are so many strange things in this world."

Jiang Yilong said, "no, it's better. It's going to be dark soon. Let's not waste our time and rush through the fog area and board the island."

The direction we locked is straight. As long as we don't change the course and break through the fog area, we will be able to see the shadow of the island immediately. After taking a breath, Jiang Yilong and I continued to sell coolies and paddle.

We rowed for about another hour. Jiang Yilong and I undoubtedly consumed a lot of energy. If we want to move forward one point, we must take out the strength to eat milk. But it's strange to say that before we broke into the fog area, Fu Zhiwen definitely said that the location at that time was only about one nautical mile away from the island. First, we never deviated from the straight course. Second, it took us so long after we broke into the fog area. Logically, we should have boarded the island by this time.

If there is really an invisible magnetic field in this area, ships will interfere with navigation due to the magnetic field. However, in fact, we are not taking passenger ships and merchant ships driven by instrument power, but only kayaks that rely on manpower. No matter how strong the invisible magnetic field is, it has no effect on us at all.

Roland said, "strange, too strange."

Fu Zhiwen said, "it shouldn't be reasonable."

"You know you shouldn't. You're an old professor with profound knowledge. Hurry up and make an idea." Jiang Yilong was very dissatisfied. He leaned against his body and gasped to recover his strength.

Perhaps it is really because of the magnetic field that all watches and telephones fail. At present, the specific time cannot be known. However, the visibility around is becoming more and more limited, and the light is getting darker and darker. It is these strange things, plus after such a long time, even a fool can see that there are problems and great abnormalities. However, no one can tell what is abnormal and strange.

Jiang Yilong said, "don't be stunned. Look at the map quickly. Where are we now?"

"Oh, yes, yes." Fu Zhiwen looked at the map carefully with a flashlight. After reading it for a long time, he said: "I really don't know where we are now. We can only be sure that we are still at sea and in this fog area. Maybe the situation will be different only if we really break through this fog area."

Jiang Yilong said, "what are you talking about? Tell me, how long will it take us to really break through this fog area?"

Zheng Jie pointed to Jiang Yilong's nose and said, "I warn you to respect my grandfather. I know that your boss is unhappy. Who is happy now? At present, we can only work together to get through this level. In addition, I'm really disappointed with you. You can't stand such a big thing."

Jiang Yilong's face turned red. I hurriedly said, "don't worry, senior brother. There are many people and great strength. Let's find a way together. I'm sure we can break through this fog area."

Roland said: "it's very possible that we can't break through this fog area for a long time. The biggest reason is that we lose direction, but the compass may fail due to the magnetic field, but we don't have to worry. It's dark now. As long as we wait a little longer, we can distinguish the southeast and northwest according to the Big Dipper star in the sky."

Jiang Yilong said: "Roland, I didn't pour cold water on you. Look up. Can you see the stars in such an environment? Even if you wait a few more hours, you won't be able to see at all. Well, I have a way. Since I can't find the root of the problem now, I just leave the fog area first, because we always go straight. As long as we return the same way now, I believe we only need equal time Then you can exit the fog area. If you really can't do it at that time, change the course according to old Fu's meaning, and go from the weakest left side of the fog area to the island. "

Bai Ling said, "we still can't solve the problem. We'll have to break through this fog area sooner or later. What if the situation is the same as now. Besides, it's a waste of time to toss around like this. Even if we take turns to take over the boating, we can't afford it."

Zheng Jie shone a flashlight on my face and said, "I haven't said a word for a long time. You can also say a way to come out and give us advice."

I said: "I don't have any good way. However, I agree with Bai Ling that retreating the same way can't solve the fundamental problem. Otherwise, even if we spend a lot of physical energy all the way, when we enter the fog area, the speed may be a little slower than before, that is to say, we thought it would take only an hour at most We may need more time to get to the island. "

Roland said, "do you mean to go on like this?"

I nodded, took out a cigarette, smoked two mouthfuls and said, "according to the current situation, time can't be wasted. Coupled with the situation at sea, time can't be wasted. Therefore, all I can think of is to carry out this stupid method to the end."

Jiang Yilong said, "what you said is somewhat reasonable. Maybe it's really because we consume too much physical energy along the way, so the speed is much slower than before, and there is an error in the estimated time to the island. What are you waiting for? Sit down and hold tight, don't let the sea breeze blow into the sea and feed live fish."

In fact, I have two answers in my mind. What I said just now is only one of them, and of course, I doubt it myself, so I can't say it. If I really put aside the other possibility left by the magnetic field, it must be feasible for me to use the compass to distinguish the southeast and northwest. However, there is another possibility that my Taoist practice is too low

The watch and mobile phone are out of order, so we don't know the time. In this case, I think of a way to let Bai Ling count according to the approximate rotation frequency of the watch pointer. Sixty times a minute and 3600 times an hour. Although there is a slight error between the calculated time and the real time, at this juncture, at least we can know the approximate time Room.

Time flows like a shuttle.

At this moment, I am exhausted and feel numb in my hands and arms. It seems that I don't belong to myself anymore, but I adhere to the first inference in my heart and paddle all the time. However, my concentration and hard work are not proportional to the facts.

Bai Ling patted me on the shoulder and said to stop first. I was stunned, recovered from my self-consciousness and looked at her expressionless face. "Why do you call me to stop? Oh, my hands are so numb..."

Bai Ling said, "it's been about an hour, maybe a few minutes at most."

I joked, "you can't count it so fast."

Bai Ling said solemnly, "I've counted up to 3650 now."

I was stunned. I looked around. With a flashlight, I saw the haze in my sight. I couldn't even see the shadow of the island. "Senior brother."

"Ah, are you there? I'm tired to death." Jiang Yilong loosened the oar and shook his numb hands. When his eyes looked along the light of my flashlight, his face suddenly turned blue and roared, "shit, what's going on?"

Roland said, "it makes me feel as if we are still in place."

Zheng Jie's face also changed, as if she was trying to calm down and hide her fear. "It's reasonable that after such a long time, we should have left the fog area, and the island should at least be visible."

Fu Zhiwen said, "is there a possibility for Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiang?"

Jiang Yilong and I said in unison, "what's possible?"

"It's ghosts. Ghosts hit the wall."

"Grandpa, you're talking about it again. There are no ghosts here. Besides, there are not the two of them. Even if there are ghosts, they have already noticed them. Unless they are not much different from the stalls under the overpass."

I carefully pondered Fu Zhiwen's sentence, and immediately glanced at Zheng Jie and said, "you know whether we are swindlers or not. However, now you calm down and think carefully. After we entered the fog area, the experience of these hours is so strange. I'm afraid what Fu Laogang just said is really possible."

Zheng Jie said, "if this is true, you should not be unaware."

Jiang Yilong smiled bitterly and said, "officer Zheng, I said before that we are not great immortals. Although we have some skills, we are nothing more than a little Taoist. If we are really hit by ghosts and we are not aware of it, it can only show that each other's Taoism is not shallow."
