Chapter 602 Tent on an Isolated Island
Chen Ziyan, who was inspecting the cargo ship, didn’t know yet that the floating island that had just been severely damaged by them had been repaired so quickly, and it was an enhanced version.
After all, those wooden boats that are on the verge of decay are not as good as the fishing boats produced by modern industry in terms of quality.
But these are all things for later. For Chen Ziyan and the others, the most important thing now is to find the direction of their next voyage.
“Master Chen, we found the island!”
Just when Chen Ziyan walked under the observation tower, the sailor above suddenly shouted to him excitedly.
Obviously this man had the captain's instructions, otherwise he would not have told Chen Ziyan immediately.
"What is the size of the island?"
Chen Ziyan didn't have the intention to pay attention to what was going on here. After hearing what the sailor said, he immediately asked him.
Maybe the sailor was afraid that what he saw just now was not accurate, so he raised the telescope and took another look, and then replied: "It's very small, only about the size of a football field."
"Is it the size of a football field?" After getting this answer, Chen Ziyan thought about it and made a decision.
Whether this is the island that Wu Sansheng and others encountered in his memory or not, this island must play a role now.
Although everyone on the ship remained calm, he knew that after the sea monkey attack just now, everyone's mentality would inevitably be affected, and now there was an urgent need for a useful discovery to boost morale.
Of course, Chen Ziyan was not completely deceiving in doing this. According to the information he knew, the area occupied by the undersea tomb was very wide. As long as they did not go in opposite directions, the island would definitely play a role.
The only problem is the size of the effect.
After letting the sailors stay and watch, Chen Ziyan went straight to the bridge and informed the captain of his decision.
The captain naturally has no objection to this. Although this is far from the wind shelter he wants, it can still play a certain role.
As the cargo ship approached, other people on the ship gradually discovered the existence of the island and couldn't help but talk about it.
Chen Ziyan, who was standing on the bow of the boat, never left his eyes away from the island that was getting closer and closer, but he did not ignore the movement behind him. Most of the conversations were heard by him.
This made him feel a little relieved. As long as most people are no longer dull, the adverse effects caused by sea monkeys can be solved.
"Master Chen, there's something going on on the island!"
At this moment, the sailor on the observation deck suddenly exclaimed.
Because many people came to the deck at this time, his shout immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"What's going on?" Chen Ziyan asked in a deep voice without panicking.
Excluding the things in the undersea tomb, he believed that the most dangerous things in this sea area were sea monkeys and forbidden women.
The Sea Monkeys and the others had just dealt with each other, and although Jin Po was amphibious, she could not easily leave the water, so he did not think the situation on the island was serious.
"I seem to have seen a tent..."
But what the sailor said next was beyond Chen Ziyan's expectations.
Tent?
This is not a rare thing, but it appears on such an isolated island in the deep sea. No matter how you think about it, something is wrong.
No wonder the sailor was making such a fuss. Anyone who suddenly saw a tent appearing in such a place would probably have the same reaction.
Although he was full of doubts, Chen Ziyan did not show it. He asked again: "Is there anything else?"
Although the appearance of the tent is strange, its origin is not difficult to guess, and it is very likely Someone has been here before. It might be a castaway, or it might be an explorer like them.
The sailor looked at it carefully and replied: "No more, just a tent."
The area of the island was laid out there, and from his perspective, he could see it at a glance.
That is to say, it is night now. If it were daytime, he could even skip the confirmation process.
“It’s really a tent!”
Chen Ziyan didn’t say anything, just took out his telescope, and after zooming in to a certain distance, he saw the tent the sailor mentioned.
This is a very old military tent. It can only be seen that it is generally intact. As for more details, it is difficult to see clearly with a telescope.
After all, it's night now, and even with the light of a searchlight, it's impossible to see things like it's daytime.
Chen Ziyan put away the telescope and suddenly felt a little envious of his uncle's night eyes. If he were here, he probably wouldn't be affected by the environment.
Shaking his head to get rid of the thoughts in his mind, Chen Ziyan quietly waited for the ship to approach.
Since he couldn't see the details clearly with a telescope, he would wait until he got somewhere to take a closer look.
Not long after, the cargo ship arrived at the edge of the island. Chen Ziyan, who had been preparing for a long time, jumped into the air and jumped to the island before the ship could stop.
He took a searchlight and looked around randomly. After finding nothing unusual, he went straight to the tent located in the center of the island.
When he arrived at the tent, Chen Ziyan immediately recognized that this was not only a military tent, but also a model that had just been put into use a few years ago.
This is the tent in front of me. I came to this island not long ago, just within a few years.
Chen Ziyan then used a long stick to open the door of the tent. There was no possible attack. There was no living creature inside the tent.
Not only are there no living creatures, there are also very few dead creatures.
An uncorroded sleeping bag, some simple tools, and a rusty iron box were everything inside the tent.
"Mr. Chen, it seems that only one person has lived in this place."
At this time, other people followed. After one of the guys glanced at the situation in the tent, he said own judgment.
Chen Ziyan remembered that this person was called Li Wei. Not only was he very good at water, he was also very good at finding traces, and his judgment was convincing.
“Do you think the people who once lived here were survivors of the shipwreck?” Chen Ziyan asked.
"No." Facing Chen Ziyan's question, Li Wei shook his head without hesitation.
He pointed to the sleeping bags and tools inside the tent, and said firmly: "These things are not something ordinary people have."
Then he thought about it and said again: " Moreover, I don’t think anyone can float here.”
Survivors of shipwrecks are naturally people drifting on the sea to survive.
But where is this place in front of me? Not to mention the surrounding storm, those brutal sea monkeys alone cannot allow anyone to float to this island.
And given the size of this island, the probability of drifting here is too low.
"So... this should have been left by an explorer like us." Chen Ziyan thought for a while and said.
Since there are no survivors of the shipwreck, there are only explorers.
