Unparalleled True Technology
Chapter 16 The Great Explorer
The width of the Florida Strait is only about 200 kilometers, and the two sides of the Florida Strait are the United States and Cuba.
Miami is almost at the southernmost tip of the United States, that is to say, from Miami to Cuba, you only need to cross the 200-kilometer Florida Strait.
Another country closest to Miami is the Bahamas, and the coast distance between the two is only 217 kilometers at the farthest point.
The Strait of Florida is a very important waterway. This is the closest waterway from Mexico to Europe. It enters the Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico through the Strait of Florida.
It is precisely because of knowing this information that Wen Ming has never been able to figure out why no one came to save him.
The sea area with a radius of 200 kilometers can be searched in one day even with a helicopter.
"Either, I was blown out of the Florida Straits by a tornado, or everyone thought I was dead."
On the endless sea, Wen Ming drove the canoe towards the north.
What he was worried about now was that he was blown into the Atlantic Ocean by a tornado. If he was in the Atlantic Ocean, then if he headed due north, he would only have a dead end.
In the Atlantic Ocean, sailing due north may reach Washington, New York, or Canada. Of course, it is also possible to reach Greenland, or the North Pole.
Wen Ming didn't need to think about the last two destinations at all, because he would definitely die on the way. In other words, it only takes more than ten days for him to die on the sea.
The distance from Miami to Charleston, a city extending toward the Atlantic Ocean from the North American continent, is about 800 kilometers. With the supplies that Wen Ming has in reserve now, as well as his canoe, he will definitely not be able to survive such a long distance.
It stands to reason that with so many mortal possibilities, he should not be headed towards the north, but should be headed towards the south or west.
But towards the south, his destination is likely to become Cuba. The United States and Cuba in this world have the same problems as the world where Wen Ming lived in his previous life. At this point in 2009, if Wen Ming appeared in Cuba, then what awaited him would most likely be a nearly 10-year prison sentence.
Because, for Cubans, he is from the United States.
And heading west, he will most likely need to cross the Straits of Florida, and the end point will be in Mexico. Crossing the Gulf of Mexico in a shoddy canoe has absolutely no other adjective than death.
Wen Ming chose the true north because he wanted to gamble that his location was still in the Straits of Florida.
As for why no one came to search and rescue him, he thought it was because everyone thought he was bound to die, and the isolated island he was living on before did not exist on any map.
The weather in the sea is not as changeable as many people imagine, because the sea is really too big.
Wen Ming was very lucky. After he came out of the isolated island, he never encountered a storm or waves that could destroy him.
The stored water resources, under his almost harsh use, still have as much as half. It was only the boiling water he had, the rainwater he had received stored in those empty crocks.
At critical moments, he needs to drink the unsterilized rainwater directly.
In terms of food, after three days of sailing, it was also reduced by about half. Because most of the food he ate during this journey was sea fish caught from the sea.
Poison ivy is a poisonous plant that Wen Ming found on an isolated island. The toxin of this plant has a very powerful lethal effect on fish. However, for humans, or mammals, the toxic effect is very weak.
The poison rovine toxin, which can kill a fish, has no effect on an adult human.
Wen Ming used this kind of poisonous ivy to catch sea fish.
This kind of sea area has not undergone any pollution, and those sea fish can be eaten raw, which is commonly known as sashimi. Of course, after Wen Ming's hands, it can only be regarded as a piece of raw fish.
"If you persist for another five days at most, I will die!"
Wen Ming is very aware of his physical condition. Eating raw fish itself is a very unhealthy eating habit, and the raw fish he eats are directly fished from the sea without washing with clean water.
Most importantly, in order to be able to catch sea fish in the sea, he used a lot of poisonous rovine toxin. Although there is the sea to eliminate the toxicity, after all, the raw fish he ate these days were all caught with poison ivy.
In a few days, even if he was not poisoned to death, he would starve to death due to the depletion of poisonous vine toxin.
Being so close to death, although Wen Ming was a little scared and regretful, he could only choose to move on.
The sails made of beach shorts, short sleeves and leaves are already a bit broken, and the power that can provide Wen Ming's canoe is getting smaller and smaller.
Fortunately, Wen Ming seemed to have encountered an ocean current. This allowed his canoe to move forward in the sea at a not slow speed.
"Why haven't we seen land yet?"
Wen Ming already regretted choosing Zhengbei at this time. If he could survive, he would rather be imprisoned by Cuba as a spy for ten or eight years. At least, he could survive being locked up.
Anxious, Wen Ming rubbed some coconut oil on his body, then took off his life jacket and jumped into the sea.
He hopes that he can catch sea fish without relying on poison ivy.
After diving and surfacing several times, Wen Ming finally showed a smile, because he successfully caught several sea fish.
But when he returned to the canoe, his face changed, because he saw the clouds gathering in the distance, and the color was dark.
...
Downers likes to explore most in his spare time. He has traveled to many places in the United States. When the land can no longer satisfy him, his eyes are set on the endless sea.
In the eastern waters of the United States, there is the world-renowned Bermuda.
Bermuda Islands, Miami, San Juan, Puerto Rico, the triangle formed by these three points is the legendary Bermuda Triangle. Each side is about 2000 kilometers long.
Such a huge sea area is enough to make people daunting. What is even more surprising is that in this area, human beings' existing scientific and technological means, or normal logical thinking, cannot explain the supernatural phenomena that occur in it. .
The goal of Downers' expedition this time was set at the Bermuda Triangle.
Together with more than a dozen "love to die" companions with the same hobbies, they rented an ocean-going fishing boat, and they set off for the Bermuda Triangle.
"Danas, the owner of the fishing boat called us. He installed a positioning device on the fishing boat. He found us heading to the Bermuda Triangle."
In the cabin of the fishing boat, Downes replied indifferently: "When we rented this boat before, we didn't agree with him where we couldn't go, so we don't need to pay attention to him."
Someone on the deck shouted: "Donnas, there seems to be a storm ahead, should we change the course?"
Downers rushed out from the cabin. As the leader of this expedition, he must ensure the safety of this group of people.
"Change the course, we have enough oil."
Downers raised his binoculars and looked at the sea storm that was forming in the distance. He didn't have a trace of fear in his heart, but was full of excitement. For a person who likes to explore and die, he is most worried about this. One line was not in any danger.
Storms at sea are very undesirable for those who live on the sea, but Donalds appreciates them fascinatedly.
"That is……"
Through the telescope, Downers saw a black spot drifting with the current on the sea surface in the distance.
That black spot is very close to the location of the storm.
Putting down the telescope in his hand, Downers rushed to a fixed telescope on the deck. The range of sight of this telescope was farther than that of the hand-held one.
Adjusting the direction, Downers found the black spot again.
"God, I saw a man, a man in a canoe, and he actually drove a canoe to explore the Bermuda Triangle. He is the greatest explorer in the world!"
The dumbfounded Downers had infinite respect for the man in the canoe.
And the others who heard Downers yelling began to fight for the telescope.
"Danas, are you an idiot? He must have been shipwrecked."
