“What the hell is going on?”

Ye Qing also realized that something was wrong, and after picking up Furni, he quickly asked.

Furney shouted, “We may have encountered a whirlpool, get the raft back to shore!” ”

Ye Qing and Zhao Ling were both shocked, and then looked at Furni, after all, at sea, this is Furni’s strength, and Funi, at this time, is also their biggest reliance.

“This place suddenly became a deep sea area, the bamboo pole can’t hold up to the end, you guys quickly find something to paddle, now we are still on the edge of the vortex, the suction power is not large, we should be able to row out soon.”

Furni said, had put the bamboo pole on the raft, and then grabbed a large bamboo tube that Zhao Ling used to hold food, poured out all the food inside, drew out her sword, and when the sword went down, the bamboo tube split in half in response, and she grabbed half and crouched on the edge of the raft.

Ye Qing and Zhao Ling didn’t care about the food at this time, Ye Qing threw the remaining half of the bamboo tube from Funi to Zhao Ling, and then drew a scoop as it was, and also split a bamboo tube for paddling.

The unique shape of the bamboo tube, after splitting, forms a scoop, and it can still produce a great force when it is stroked.

Under the command of Furny, the three paddled unhurriedly, and the raft began to slowly lean towards the shore.

The speed of the raft became faster and faster, and after finally landing on the shore, the three of them tied it to a large stone with hemp rope, and only then let out a long sigh of relief, lying side by side on the raft, Ye Qing said: “How can this sea whirlpool again?” ”

Furney said: “Navigation encounters vortices at sea is a common thing, generally the formation of vortices, mostly at the junction of ocean currents, and the sea between the archipelago, is mainly caused by the impact of multiple currents flowing in opposite directions. ”

Hearing her say this, the two also roughly understood, the junction of ocean currents needless to say, as for the sea near the archipelago, because the existence of the island hinders the flow of seawater, and then diverted, bypassing the island and then gathering together, so that if there are multiple islands, this current will be a lot, multiple currents collide and impact from different directions, and naturally form a vortex.

It’s like the formation of a tornado, it’s easy to understand.

After Zhao Ling’s side understood this, he immediately worshiped Funi and said, “Funi you are so good, if it weren’t for you, we might have been sucked in today.” ”

Furney said a little ashamed: “In fact, after discovering another island, I should have thought that there would be a vortex here, but I was negligent, near the archipelago, in addition to the chaotic current, the complexity of the seabed structure is also the main factor in the formation of the vortex, if only I had thought of it earlier.” ”

“This kind of terrain is rare, it’s normal not to think about it for a while, and everyone will have experience next time.” Ye Qing comforted, and then said, “By the way, what about this seabed structure?” ”

This time it was Zhao Ling who answered him, only listening to the endorsement: “Generally speaking, the islands in the sea are mostly alluvial spreads formed after the hedging of multiple ocean currents, but some are formed after the collision of plates, if it is the latter, the shallow water area around the island will be very short, which leads to the extreme section of the shallow water area and the deep water area, the sea water drop is large, naturally it will produce a large suction force, and it is easy to form a vortex.” ”

“Well, it seems that you are very good at geography.” Ye Qing gave her a thumbs up.

Zhao Ling raised his head proudly and said, “Don’t look at who I am.” ”

Yes, give her some Yangguan she wants to be brilliant, Ye Qing was directly lazy, and asked Furni: “In your opinion, how big is this vortex?” We’re going to go around the island, so we can’t just go here, can we? ”

Furney said, “Maybe it depends on how much the vortex suction expands around, and you have to try it to be clear.” ”

“How to try?” Zhao Ling asked.

Furney did not speak, but got up directly from the raft, ran to the shore, pulled a grass from the crack in the stone, and then put it in the water, watching the grass drift away, and then said: “You see, from here there has already begun to be suction, this grass will gradually be sucked into the center of the vortex, as long as we stare at this grass, we can know how big the radius of this vortex is.” ”

Ye Qing and the two thought thoughtfully, and immediately took out the telescope and observed where the grass would disappear, which meant where the center of the vortex was.

After observing for a while, I saw that the speed of the grass was getting faster and faster, until finally, it was like an engine pushing behind it, and then suddenly at a certain moment, it turned in place for a few times and disappeared.

Furney put down her binoculars and said to the two: “It seems that we can’t get through this place, the radius of this vortex is at least a third of a nautical mile, and this distance, if calculated from both sides, must at least extend to the island over there.” ”

As soon as Zhao Ling heard this, his face immediately became embarrassed, when they set off in the morning, they were full of morale and vowed to sail around the island, but this will just come out for half a day, do you want to go back?

And Ye Qing thought a little more, as Funi said, it is obviously impossible to go from here to the island over there, so you can only think of other ways to pass, otherwise the task cannot be completed, but how do you tell the two sisters about this?

If they were told that they must go to the island over there, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

Just as he was annoyed, Zhao Ling suddenly said, “How about we go around and go around the sea outside, but it’s just farther?” ”

“That’s all there is to think about it.” Furney muttered beside her.

Ye Qing was stunned and said curiously, “Why, are you still ready to continue?” ”

“How about that?” Zhao Ling asked rhetorically.

Ye Qing said, to be honest, although they have been getting along for so long, but the woman’s mind, he didn’t understand it at all, he thought that in this case, the two women would choose to go back directly, after all, adventure or something, it has always been men who like it more, and women are more disgusted (Wang Zhao) delirium.

But he forgot that among the two women, Funi was an island, and the spirit of adventure was completely instinctive for her.

And Zhao Ling, in order to find Ye Qing, he could slip all the way and run all the way over that section of the cliff in the middle of the night, and his courage was not small.

However, this is actually not that Ye Qing underestimates them to have such a question, after all, it is also very risky to do so.

One is that their current navigation tools are only rafts, if you want to detour, you have to go to the deep sea area, but in the deep sea area, the raft is not easy to control, when the time comes to any wave, it is easy to deviate from the channel, and then you can really only resign yourself to fate.

Another is who knows if there will be a vortex over there, in case you enter the deep sea area and encounter a vortex, then it is not a matter of manually paddling and coming back.

So this matter has to be discussed, how to detour this detour. _
