It is often said that people who have never seen the sea cannot imagine its vastness. Of course, those who have never sailed far cannot imagine the horror of storms at sea. Two or three meters is not considered a wave, it is the norm. Search: \(\\\\) Watch fine literature for free
Typhoons and hurricanes are cyclones born on the ocean, which are low pressure. They will inevitably hit the land instead of going to the wider ocean, because the track of the typhoon generally cuts the edge of the subtropical high pressure, but on the earth, when it comes to the worst climate, it is definitely not the high latitudes of the southern hemisphere.
This low-pressure area is so large that it circles the earth, which is the so-called westerly drift. The minimum wind force here is level 5 all year round, and the lowest wave is 5 meters. And this is a rare day, about after November, which is the summer in the southern hemisphere At the same time, this is also the best opportunity for the scientific research ship to choose to enter the Antarctic continent.
Strong winds above level 7 occupy one-third of the year.
According to the common saying, a typhoon will appear in the roaring westerly belt almost every three days. Of course, typhoons are mostly tropical cyclones, and those that appear in the westerly belt can only be called cyclones, which have nothing to do with the tropics.
Most of the time, cyclones interact with each other and move slowly at the same time. The westerly belt is like the end of the world in a magical world. Manpower and even most living things cannot penetrate this barrier. The Antarctic continent behind the westerly belt has always been isolated and isolated. Soil, for example, if one day in the future, the environment is harsh and destroyed, and the ocean becomes a dead zone, only jellyfish are left—unless all those jelly-like things evolve into deep-sea jellyfish, they will still be firmly blocked in the Pacific Ocean by the roaring westerly belt superior.
In Xia Yi's concept, a typhoon is above level 12, accompanied by violent wind and rain, but he has obviously never experienced the violent snowstorm in front of him. The surface of the sea is not even counted as "surface". After the waves surge, they are rolled up and poured down layer by layer. After sliding from the peak to the trough of the wave, it can be estimated that it is about ten meters long. The sky is dark. I can't see anything even when I look up.
This is not an ordinary blizzard, it is snow blown by the wind, it can kill you if you hit your face, and once you encounter any obstacle, a thick layer of snow will accumulate on the surface in less than a minute. It's also very big, not the size of a fist.
Xia Yi's personal experience, just a few seconds after surfacing, the water layer covering her body was covered with thick snowflakes, and then a wave came over, and the snowflakes were washed away again, as for the sea surface? What is the sea? There is only the turbulent sea in front of my eyes. It is so dark that I can't tell the north, south, east, and west. The little light is white reflecting each other, but I don't know whether the white is snow or spray.
The weather is so bad that I could actually stay in New Zealand for another three months.
But it's not just the sirens, Xia Yi is also very indifferent to the ignorant children.
What's more, if you know in advance that you are going to dive, you will be less affected by the storm in the deep sea. The longer the time, the better Xia Yi's ability to control the ability. , That is to say, if you raise the temperature, you can watch the blizzard without feeling it, and the consumption of water molecules can be replenished at any time.
It sounds like a complicated process, but after getting used to it repeatedly, the ability becomes an ability again, just like breathing, it doesn't need to bother, it's all passive.
The only thing Xia Yi needs to adapt to is that he is wrapped in this high-density, constant-temperature water layer, and he is not directly in touch with anything. It's all water.
Compared with complete blackness, slight whiteness makes people's eyes blurred.
After the Siren swam close, he grabbed Xia Yi's arm again. The movement was not gentle, because the wind and waves were too strong, and the sound of howling passing by made people's eardrums ache, and nothing could be seen in the waves. The safe area should be Continue to dive very deep.
[How did you come up?]
Xia Yi came up to see if he had swam out of the westerly belt. Besides, such a blizzard was just a novelty to him, and the huge waves didn't matter. Xia Yi herself can lift a wall of water more than ten meters high. It's just that the waves that are raised like a carpet are completely different from the waves in the storm. The storm in nature contains terrifying power. If there is a ship on the sea, it is very difficult to hold on in such bad weather without sinking.
But such wind and waves are also very troublesome for sea monsters.
[We have already passed through the westerly belt, but it is only affected by the hurricane...] Yongye has entered the Antarctic Circle.
This journey is not easy, and there is nothing to eat in the deep sea, but I saw Gululu's kin, countless king crabs climbing along the mud basin on the bottom of the sea, and the direction of their migration is where there is food place, sadly going against their course.
In the end, Urebia picked up one with its tentacles very simply, swung it up and smashed it vigorously, and said to Gululu while eating. Already know your meat is not good, just look at these guys.
King crabs do not live in Antarctica, but they migrated, making the seabed food along the westerly belt extremely scarce.
But the sea monster is huge, so it’s okay to be hungry for two days halfway, so the few poor prey are eaten by Siren and Xia Yi. After half a month, Uribia saw a group of king crabs and stopped eating. That's weird.
Now passing through the westerly belt is finally good news.
[Follow Uribia, you can't see, there are already icebergs everywhere on the sea.]
In the case of poor visibility, the white shimmer is mixed with the heavy snow and spray, and nothing can be seen clearly. If you don't pay attention, it will be worse than Kraken.
The size of the iceberg is too large, and it is already close to the Antarctic shelf, so the sea water will not be too deep. At this time, the deeper the place, the more dangerous it is.
And there is a big squid in front, even if it hits, it will be Uribia who hits first = =
Even if the brakes are not enough, the position of the Siren's control is also very good, and it will definitely hit the squid's head.
[How to put it, we are also lighter than Gululu.]
Well, with the addition of Sirens, he will definitely not make Uribia stupid.
Xia Yi squinted her eyes for a long time, but finally gave up.
From the deep sea to the westerly belt, his only experience is that the eyes are really useless, it is better to keep them closed, er, not right, when the siren approaches, it is very difficult to distinguish the outline, thanks to You Rebia's big blue eyes emit a faint light.
The storm was so violent that Xia Yi could hardly feel the temperature and touch of the siren.
Sometimes Uribia is far away, and he only knows that the Siren is by his side, but sometimes Xia Yi doesn't even notice that the Siren kisses him through the water layer. After all, his ability is water, but Xia Yi knows that it doesn't feel like water.
Now that the light is stronger, Xia Yi could barely see the siren's movements, and was startled for a moment.
In fact, this is nothing, but Xia Yi is not very clear-headed every time he actually kisses. This time, he saw it at a close distance, because the sea is still dark, and the wind and waves are strong, so Xia Yi has not been seduced by the mermaid. Charm draws attention away, and all that is seen is the siren's movements.
Very light, very soft.
It's just a slight touch, and it leaves in a moment.
In fact, what came into contact with was still sea water, but the mermaid still stretched out his arms to embrace it nostalgicly. Her long silver hair spread out in the sea water full of ice floes and snowflakes. Xia Yi suddenly felt a little suffocated. Those silver and white hairs were like a sheet In the densely intertwined net, one loses one's direction in it, and the feeling of where is the sea is blurred.
[Xia Yi?]
The siren was a bit surprised by Xia Yi's reaction, because these movements were so familiar to him that he was used to them - he always tended to forget that Xia Yi couldn't see, and even so close.
Xia Yi who barely came back was still a little dazed:
[...Why did it stop?]
The speed of traveling in the westerly wind belt has always been very affected, and now the hurricane and snowstorm are non-stop. If Uribia is not blocking the front of the head, Xia Yi reckons that he will be blown to the southernmost tip of South America by the storm.
[It is Uribia who has something to do, so I have to wait here for a few days.]
[Is there something wrong?]
This word may be normal to humans, but it is bizarre when applied to sea monsters.
[Yes, Gululu is already climbing towards the South Pole. It is not afraid of wind and waves, but it cannot help us block the wind, so we will stop here for a while.]What the Siren said is very roundabout, because only Xia Yi is really affected by the storm.
But—isn't the thing that sea monsters need to do, just eat and sleep, sleep and eat
The siren swims slowly along an iceberg. Icebergs in the westerly belt, including the Antarctic Circle in winter, cannot be climbed casually. It is possible to be frozen directly on the iceberg. Also keep out the wind. Then dive carefully along the iceberg to find those delicious krill.
Xia Yi followed the siren all the way, watching the light silver fish tail easily stabilized its direction in the turbulent waves, and when it walked freely, Xia Yi suddenly thought, it seems that in some stories, the mermaid appeared on the sea surface on a stormy night On, of course, the content of the story is that they rescued a drowning man from a shipwreck.
But what about the ending.
The most famous fairy tale is a tragedy. In other stories, can people and mermaids live together
Xia Yi tried hard to stare at the siren's fish tail.
He had seen them turn into a pair of legs, but the siren still couldn't rely on them to get up. If the mermaid could maintain that form, it didn't seem too difficult to live on land.
Just put on clothes, a hat to cover your ears, etc. Gloves are needed - it seems to be possible to disguise a seriously ill person in a wheelchair.
Thinking about it, Xia Yi suddenly had the urge to laugh at herself.
How did the sirens go to shore
Mermaids are born to belong to the boundless ocean, only here, they are alive, they can go anywhere as they like, fight with the most ferocious beasts in the ocean, shuttle among the coral reefs or trenches, live wanton and free It is the mermaid, or the whole life of the sea monster.
Humans, perhaps, are just an unexpected episode in their lives.
Neither man nor mermaid has a happy ending.
[Xia Yi...]
The thin fins on the siren's elbows were covered with broken ice chips. They floated up and were quickly taken away by the waves. Some of the sharper ones left faint red marks on the siren's palms. The sharpness of the ice chips is Partly, the most important thing is the speed of the rough waves.
Xia Yi looked at the all-white fish he caught, probably a krill-eating fish, and brought it to her seriously, feeling touched for no reason.
He reached out and grabbed Siren's palm.
The water layer changed suddenly, but it was different from before. The water mass didn't separate out to wrap the food and then merge in, but spread out along Xia Yi's fingers, and quickly wrapped around the siren's palm.
[Xia Yi?]
The siren was a little strange, but didn't move.
The water layer between him and Xia Yi became thinner and thinner, and the temperature he could feel was getting higher and higher. Finally, when he touched Xia Yi's fingers, it was still as warm as before, soaking into the bone marrow.
The water layer continued to extend, and soon wrapped the siren's arms, shoulders, neck... until the very end of the fish's tail.
What Xia Yi felt was cold, the siren's hands and body were as cold as ice.
He couldn't help shivering. This kind of cold made the initial worry that the siren was looking for food near the iceberg and being scratched by broken ice chips instantly turned into a kind of fear.
So cold, how on earth did the Sirens hold on
[The deep sea is not so cold, is it?]
This weather is no longer a blizzard, it should be called a blowing snow.
Snowflakes fell into the sea, and there were many icebergs. Near the sea surface, it was almost seven or eight degrees below zero. Large pieces of ice floes appeared in the salty sea water, which was good. On the Antarctic continent, it was minus five degrees Celsius. Ten degrees is not unusual.
[Almost, you humans cannot get used to it.]
Expecting the siren to say that it is cold, and then get close, this is nothing. On the contrary, when Xia Yi suddenly wrapped him with a protective body of constant temperature water, the siren worried that the cold on his body was too heavy, and Xia Yigen could not adapt, so he tried his best Recoil and try to free the palm.
The innocent fish was swaying in the water layer dying.
The water temperature rises steeply for it. It is tantamount to steaming. Throwing an Antarctic fish into a water temperature of 26 degrees is too cruel.
Cough, but since you want to eat it, let’s boil cold fish in warm water.
Seeing that Xia Yi was still frowning tightly, Siren could only comfort her again:
[Have you forgotten the place of residence I told you before, the sea there is full of shipwrecks, it snows for two-thirds of the year, and it rains when it doesn't snow?]How can you be afraid of the cold
[Is it nearby?]
Such extreme weather, either the Antarctic or the North Pole.
[Follow the ocean current in the westerly belt and you will arrive at Drake Passage.]Siren waited until the water temperature felt by the skin was similar to that of tropical seas before reaching out habitually.
Then there was a slight shock.
It's been a long time since he touched Xia Yi directly.
It's warm and comfortable.
The ice-piercing sea water, the Siren never felt very uncomfortable, but beside the iceberg, rubbing the ice floes and snowstorm to embrace the warmth of this chest, suddenly he was reluctant to move a finger. gd1806102
