Chapter 63 The storm fades away(2/2)

"It's done."

Chen Lang said.

"Is this done?"

Lehman stared: "Is this the compass?"

Chen Lang nodded, "Yes, the water-floating magnetic acupuncture method is recorded in "Mengxi Bi Tan" by Shen Kuo of the Northern Song Dynasty."

Chen Lang asked Gwen to take out a wooden barrel filled with fresh water.

Open the lid of the barrel.

Then place the hook on the water.

Chen Lang gently moved the fishhook.

The fishhook rotates and eventually points in one direction.

Chen Lang moved the fishhook again.

The fishhook is still pointing in that direction.

"It's done!"

Chen Lang looked at the direction the fishhook pointed.

This is the direction in which the sampan was pushed by the waves earlier.

It seems Gwen is right.

The sampan started out heading north.

It only took Chen Lang less than two minutes to find the direction.

"It's really yours."

Lao Wu gave a thumbs up.

Chen Lang chuckled and said, "It's a small matter."

Director Lu on the big ship couldn't help but laugh.

But he quickly put away his smile.

He said seriously: "There is one last request."

"Find shelter before the storm arrives."

Chen Lang rushes to answer.

He patted Lehman on the arm: "Bring up the underwater tarp."

Lehman nodded.

After a while, he took the tarpaulin used to slow down the water onto the boat.

The three decided to row to the coral reef.

Lao Wu and other staff members also returned to the ship.

......

Ten minutes later.

Chen Lang and his party returned to the coral reef.

At the same time, the storm started again.

"Leiman, come and help us. Let's dismantle the bamboo rafts and make windproof bamboo rafts."

Chen Lang issued an order: "Gwen, I'll leave the supplies to you."

"Don't worry."

Chen Lang nodded.

He and Lehman took axes and saws and started chopping the bamboo raft stuck between the rocks.

Chen Lang started chopping from half of the bamboo raft.

Not long after, the bamboo raft was intercepted by Chen Lang and Lei Man.

The two acted separately.

Stick the bamboo in the direction of the big waves, that is, on the rocks in the south.

Chen Lang also found the broken reef.

The moment I saw the reef.

Chen Lang understood why they were taken away by the wind and waves.

This time he learned his lesson.

Tie the rope to a thicker reef.

Soon, the new defense production was completed.

Chen Lang and the others still adopt the old method.

Gwen takes care of the supplies.

Chen Lang and Lehman guard the cabin.

The three of them ate some dried meat to replenish their strength.

Waiting for the last storm to come.

......

Boom!

Lightning tears through the black clouds.

Chen Lang and the others lowered their heads.

Continuously pour out the seawater poured into the cabin.

"Hang on!"

Chen Lang shouted.

The last round of storm lasted for nearly half an hour.

Chen Lang kept pouring the sea water.

He can hardly lift his arms.

Gwen was exposed to wind and rain.

She was wearing a raincoat, but she was still shivering from the cold.

Lehman is even more miserable.

The wound on the hand has been soaked in sea water.

The edges turned white and the wound hurt terribly.

Nonetheless.

The desire for survival in the hearts of the three of them has not weakened at all.

Chen Lang tried his best to keep his brain calm.

He observed his surroundings.

Make judgments calmly.

The direction of the sampan was adjusted several times to prevent it from being overturned by strong waves.

The three of them persisted for about half an hour.

The rain gradually became lighter.

The wind is slowly weakening.

The three people struggling in the storm raised their heads.

Dark clouds are moving north.

The dim sky gradually becomes brighter.

Chen Lang stood up from the boat.

He stepped on the side board and looked up at the sky.

A ray of skylight passed through the stratus clouds and shone on Chen Lang's embarrassed face.

"The storm is over..."

Chen Lang murmured.

The big ship in the distance.
