60 Coastal Floating Bridge-Day 8

Mysterious Island

The raft drifted with the wind and eventually got farther and farther away from the cozy island.

Yan Lan was not too disappointed. After all, she had stayed on the island quietly for a day, so she did not gain nothing. Moreover, thanks to the group of robbers, she got a map and some supplies.

She fought a battle of wits and courage with the pirates from the moment she opened her eyes until midnight, her entire body was highly concentrated. When the danger was over, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she touched the bed.

When I woke up, it was already ten o'clock the next morning.

After entering the survival game, she has adopted a very strict schedule. She insists on getting up at 6 o'clock every day to exercise and look for supplies, and is busy until the evening. The long-lost lazy sleep makes her extremely satisfied.

The raft drifted steadily on the sea, creating a beautiful ripple on the light blue water, as if a piece of music was being played in the water. This was the best weather day ever on the seaside map.

As sweet calls continued to echo outside, Yan Lan stretched contentedly and slowly climbed out of bed. Snowball, who had helped her with the mission the previous night, was still asleep. She quietly put on her slippers and walked outside.

The thick clouds dispersed, revealing the golden sun. The dazzling sunlight sprinkled on the sea, sparkling like a dazzling Milky Way. The wind blew gently, creating layers of soft ripples.

At this hour, the sun began to grow brighter. Yan Lan took out a lounge chair from the compartment of her backpack and sat leisurely under the eaves to admire the scenery and enjoy this moment of tranquility and freedom.

Suddenly, a cheerful and rhythmic sound penetrated the tranquility of the sea and reached her ears.

This was the sound she had heard several times in her sleep. Yan Lan got up and walked to the raft fence, looking into the distance.

As far as the eye can see, a group of round heads playfully poke out of the sea. They leap into the sea and break through the waves with graceful posture. Their black figures draw smooth curves in the blue sea, and then quickly dive into the water, leaving only the cheerful sound of flapping tail fins.

That's a group of dolphins!

Yan Lan's heartbeat began to accelerate. This was her first time seeing dolphins. It was said that hearing the calls of dolphins in the vast ocean meant that a miracle was about to happen.

These dolphins seemed to be full of curiosity about Yan Lan, the uninvited guest. They swam closer and closer, surrounding the raft, sometimes jumping out of the water, sometimes diving into her sight, leaving behind a string of bubbles and the cheerful calls they made when they played.

Yan Lan observed all this quietly, her heart filled with joy and awe.

She pulled a bag of small fish and shrimp from the compartment of her backpack and gently tossed it into the sea. These were the few fish food she had found yesterday. She then gathered up the fishing nets she had been dragging all night and fed all the fish inside to the dolphins.

Every time a fish falls into the water, it attracts a fierce fight among the dolphins, who scurry through the water with their nimble bodies, catch the food with their long snouts, and chew it contentedly.

Yan Lan was deeply attracted by this scene and she couldn't help laughing out loud.

There was not much fish food, and the group of dolphins seemed not to be full yet, staring at her with their eyes full of wisdom.

She remembered that dolphins only ate meat and didn't know if they ate fruits and vegetables. She tried feeding them a little bit, but she didn't expect that the competition would be even more intense than for small fish and shrimp.

These fruits and vegetables are all natural and pollution-free foods, and there is no harm in eating them. So Yan Lan took out a large pile of food from the compartments of her backpack and threw them into the sea one by one.

As time went on, the dolphins seemed to have established a subtle tacit understanding with her. Whenever she held out food in her hand, there would always be one or two dolphins that came particularly close, as if wanting to kiss her with their soft beaks.

Yan Lan discovered that they particularly liked to eat small apples. There happened to be a lot of them stored in the compartment of her backpack, so she took out a small bucket to feed them.

As time went by, they gradually became full, but did not disperse immediately.

They continued to swim around the raft, calling out to it with their beautiful voices, and their behavior became increasingly purposeful. They were no longer just playing around the boat, but were swimming slowly forward in a guiding posture, looking back at her from time to time, with anticipation and invitation in their eyes.

Yan Lan felt an indescribable curiosity and excitement in her heart. It seemed that this group of dolphins wanted to take her somewhere!

She then paddled gently, following the guidance of the dolphins, heading towards the unknown sea. As if she was paddling too slowly, the group of dolphins surrounded the raft and pushed it forward.

This is a group of ocean masters. Even with a raft, they are still traveling very fast.

The raft moved steadily and quickly across the sea, with no reference points around, which made Yan Lan feel a little fear of the unknown.

Suddenly her eyes lit up and she took out the map and radar she had just obtained yesterday.

Press the radar switch, and a small white dot will move slowly on it, which represents her location. Then expand the map to find the current coordinates and look around the coordinates.

The strange thing is, this route is all ocean, where are they taking themselves?

Yan Lan wanted to communicate, but due to racial segregation, she was unable to express herself in their language.

At this moment, the door of the cabin opened, and it was Snowball who had slept for an extra hour.

It was still in a bad mood after waking up, rubbing its dark eyes lazily, enjoying the first ray of sunshine in the morning.

However, when its sharp eyes caught the cheerful figures of the group of dolphins surrounding the raft, its bad temper instantly disappeared, replaced by strong curiosity and excitement.

It flew to a group of dolphins, landed on the smooth head of a dolphin, and chirped.

Although she couldn't understand what it was saying, Yan Lan knew it was communicating with dolphins based on the tacit understanding between the two of them over the days. It could actually communicate across species, worthy of being a little elf.

After chatting for a while, the snowball flew back from the dolphin's head and landed on a fence.

“Chirp~”

It used its hands and feet to convey the news it had received to Yan Lan.

Yan Lan waved her hand, indicating that she understood and told it to continue playing. In fact, she didn't need it to tell her; through its various feedback, Yan Lan knew that this trip was safe.

After the raft had been pushed along for a while, the surrounding scenery began to change. The water became clearer, and the colorful coral reefs and tropical fish could be clearly seen. The sunlight filtered through the water, casting a myriad of colorful shadows, a beauty beyond belief.

Yan Lan watched intently until the raft stopped in front of a hidden bay. Millions of dolphins were playing in the water in the bay. This must be their base camp.

The sea here is as calm as a mirror, surrounded by lush tropical rainforest, and the air is filled with a fresh and moist scent. Before the game, it was an extremely popular tourist attraction.

[Congratulations on discovering the hidden map: Mysterious Island, and you will be awarded 10,000 special points.]

Hide map?

Yan Lan pulled out her radar to confirm. No wonder it wasn't showing up on the map. It turned out it was fate. If she hadn't fed the dolphins, and without their guidance, she wouldn't have come to this island.

Yan Lan brought Snowball ashore and waved to the dolphins. Then, she turned and looked at the mysterious island covered in dense jungle and shrouded in mist. It was time to explore the island.

The magnificence and vastness of this island far exceeded Yan Lan's expectations. It was like a sleeping giant, lying quietly in the blue sea. Its huge body was several times larger than the mini island yesterday.

The bay extends gently towards the island, like an elegant ribbon, gently spread between the blue and green.

At the end of this ribbon, a clear river flows leisurely. It originates from the depths of the island, carrying the freshness and mystery of the mountains and forests, and slowly flows into the bay.

At the confluence of the river and the bay, a wide sandy beach is formed. Various shells and coral fragments are scattered on the beach. Occasionally, a few seagulls or seabirds will stop here.

——This will be the starting point of her next journey of exploration.

Walking inward along the Haihe River, she unexpectedly discovered a huge killer whale struggling in pain on the shallows ahead.

The sunlight shone on the killer whale's smooth skin, reflecting a heartbreaking pale light, its eyes were full of helplessness and despair. Due to lack of water, it opened its mouth to breathe heavily, and it was obvious that it could not return to the deep sea on its own.

Yan Lan and Xueqiu looked at each other and saw worried looks in each other's eyes.

Facing such a massive sea creature, the power of Snowball and herself was too insignificant, but since they had encountered this killer whale, they had to save it. She quickly assessed the situation and quickly formulated an emergency rescue plan.

She first let Snowball stay near the killer whale, soothing it with gentle voice and actions, trying to alleviate its fear and anxiety.

At the same time, I was looking for some materials that could be used to make simple ropes and slides.

The crafting station had already learned the rope diagram, and all it needed was some vines or cloth. She quickly found a pile of vines nearby and then quickly and cleverly built a simple slide leading to the deep sea.

She carefully secured the killer whale's body with ropes and guided it toward the slide. During this process, the killer whale seemed to sense her kindness and efforts, and gradually cooperated from its initial resistance.

Seeing it stop struggling violently, Yan Lan let out a long sigh. In fact, the most difficult part of this rescue plan is the cooperation of the killer whale. She was afraid that after so many attempts, the final result would still be bad.

Snowball can communicate across species. I think its advance comfort played a decisive role. It was really a treasure when I met this little elf.

Orcas are so large that ordinary people's strength is not enough. But Yan Lan's strength is 98, and Snowball is also a brute force. Combined with the orca's own thrashing, it slowly slides into the deep sea under the traction of the rope.

Bit by bit, they finally got the killer whale back into the water.

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded: [Congratulations, brave traveler, you have triggered the hidden mission - rescue.]
