Chapter 136 Reaching the Island
"Axin, what's wrong? Jasmine has prepared dinner, it's time for us to eat." Windsor said softly.
After such a period of time, Xia Xin gradually calmed down. He looked at Windsor and said, "Li Le just reported that we will arrive at our destination soon."
Windsor's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was also very surprised.
She was the first person to appear next to Xia Xin, and her experiences with Xia Xin along the way were almost the same.
Therefore, after hearing the news, she was also very happy, and she also understood why Xia Xin never went back.
"Then I'll ask Jasmine to bring dinner to the deck, and we'll eat on the deck." Windsor said with a smile.
Xia Xin nodded and said, "Well, let's arrange it this way!"
Soon, Jasmine arranged the meals on the deck.
Xia Xin sat on a stool, eating dinner, looking at the sunset on the horizon, and looking at the sea in front of him from time to time, expecting to see the shadow in his imagination.
After dinner, the sunset has already set halfway, and the sunset glow on the horizon shines on the deck of the building, reflecting a red light.
The sea water also reflects the sunset, and the sea and sky are the same color, all glowing.
However, Xia Xin was not in the mood to appreciate this picturesque scenery now. His mind was already firmly tied to the distance.
Windsor and others also understood Xia Xin's mood at this time. They also calmed down and waited patiently with Xia Xin.
Suddenly, a cheerful shout came from the observation deck. Xia Xin didn't hear it clearly at first. It wasn't until the shout came again that Xia Xin clearly understood what was being shouted.
"I see it, I see it!" People on the observation deck kept shouting: "I see the island, what a big island!"
At this time, Li Le ran over and stood in front of Xia Xin. He said excitedly: "Sir, I saw the island!"
Although Xia Xin was equally excited, he did not lose his composure. He nodded and said, "I heard it. Let's go to the bow."
Xia Xin took the first step, followed closely by the others. The group of people arrived at the bow of the ship. Everyone stood still and looked forward.
A moment later, a black shadow appeared in Xia Xin's field of vision. When Xia Xin saw the black shadow, he couldn't help but tighten his hands on the side of the ship.
As the building ship moved forward, the black shadow slowly grew larger, revealing a clearer outline.
An island appeared in Xia Xin's field of vision. Xia Xin could clearly see that there was a mountain range on the island, which was lush and green. Xia Xin even saw birds and beasts flying over the island from time to time.
When Xia Xin saw the birds and beasts, he thought of the two-handed bald eagle that had just attacked him and others. Xia Xin suspected that the bald eagle came from this island.
The building boat quickly approached the island. Because it was so close to the island, Xia Xin and others could no longer see the entire island.
"Don't land yet, sail around the island for a week, record the size of the island, the appearance of the edges, and see where it is suitable to dock the ship." When Xia Xin actually saw the island, he calmed down a lot and calmed down.
One of the reasons why Xia Xin didn't land on the island immediately was because he needed to have a rough idea of the size of the island. After all, he would establish a territory here in the future, and the size of the island was very important.
The second reason is that Xia Xin needs to find a location suitable for establishing a port. Firstly, he can dock on the island and then land on it. Secondly, he also needs to prepare for more ships to stay in the future.
The third reason is because it is already evening and the sky will soon darken. It is not suitable to explore the island at night because it is too dangerous.
These three reasons prompted Xia Xin to make this decision. Although he couldn't wait to land on the island, he also didn't want to take risks and cause unnecessary casualties.
After all, I've been waiting for so long, so there's no harm in waiting one more night.
When Li Le heard Xia Xin's words, he would naturally not object. What's more, he also knew that he couldn't just find a place to land, and he might get stranded.
If it really gets stranded, it will be a big trouble.
"Understood, sir." After Li Le saluted, he ran away to direct the crew's actions.
Xia Xin did not go back to the core cabin. He stood on the deck with Windsor and others, browsing the edge of the island.
Xia Xin can see the beach from where he is now, and the boat starts sailing around the island along the beach.
Gradually, the beach disappeared and was replaced by patches of woods. Some trees even grew in the sea.
The woods along the coast are very long, and Xia Xin's boat took a long time to see new changes.
Xia Xin and others couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw it, because they saw a river that stretched out from the forest and slowly merged into the sea.
Although the river is only two meters wide, it does not affect Xia Xin's mood at all, because there is a river, which means there is fresh water on the island.
Once an island has fresh water and food, it has the cornerstone for its development as a territory, and the rest is just a matter of time.
As the building boat moved, Xia Xin encountered several more rivers, of different sizes, some even only one meter wide, but the large ones were nearly twenty meters wide.
Xia Xin could not imagine how big this island was and how it could have such a wide river.
This is the end of the island that I and others saw from the outside. If it were inside, how spacious would it be?
Driving again, Xia Xin found that the coast of the island was gradually rising, and the gap with the sea water was increasing.
Slowly, steep rocks and cliffs formed between the island and the sea. At the highest point, the steep rocks and cliffs were hundreds of meters high from the sea.
After walking through the steep rocks, Xia Xin and others began to see the jungle along the coast until they found a concave triangle area.
Next to the concave triangle, Xia Xin also saw a river about ten meters wide, which merged into the sea from the left side of the triangle.
Li Le saw this scene and quickly ordered someone to record this place. It could probably be used as a base for establishing a port.
It was already dark by this time, but fortunately it was a clear day and the moonlight was relatively bright.
However, Xia Xin still called Li Le over, and he ordered: "Li Le, don't take action for the time being. We will rest here and check again tomorrow. It is dark and it is close to the island, so it is easy to hit the rocks."
Li Le also understands this truth, so he also agrees with this view in his heart.
"Understood, Lord, I'll give the order right away." Li Le nodded and pointed to the concave triangle in front of him.
He said: "Sir, look at that triangle area."
