Chapter 1395 Ancient Routes

Most people really don’t know what the undercurrents in the ocean are. Only some coastal bathing beaches care about this, because undercurrents may also occur in shallow sea areas.

Maybe some people are unlucky. When they are swimming at the beach, they will encounter an "undercurrent" and it will take them to the deep sea through the "undercurrent" in the shallow sea in just a few seconds.

Undercurrent is a type of water flow that is difficult to detect. By the time you notice it, you have already moved from the shallow sea area to the deep sea area.

Therefore, ocean undercurrents also appear in shallow sea areas, which is more dangerous. If this happens in bathing beaches, the danger will be even greater.

"Fortunately, the power of this ocean undercurrent is not too great. If it were too strong, maybe when I woke up this morning, this trawler would have been sent to nowhere. Now let's see if this ocean undercurrent has any value." Han

The peacock smiled and said to himself.

If this is really a relatively mild undercurrent of the ocean and forms a barrier that can support the large school of hairtail here, then this is a natural breeding ground given by God.

While chasing the fish, Han Peacock recorded the swimming trajectory of the fish, intending to carefully determine the scope of this ocean undercurrent circle.

Farming seafood in a place like this is truly a natural product.

The products produced here cannot simply be regarded as farmed products, but are considered wild, so the value of such a natural farm is very high.

"Huh? What's going on over there?" From a distance, Han Peacock saw that the fish school began to turn, and the transfer speed was very fast and urgent. Han Peacock had already seen that the fish school was in chaos.

"Ah? The speed of the fishing boat has increased again? Is it dangerous?" Han Peacock said in surprise.

The fishing boat suddenly accelerated, which gave Han Peacock a very obvious feeling. This can only mean that the speed of the underwater undercurrent has increased.

Peacock Han quickly turned around and stopped following the fish school. At this time, Peacock Han also discovered that this direction was the direction in which the fishing boat was moving in the first place.

The ocean is not as gentle as it seems on the surface. You must know that there are traps hidden everywhere in the ocean.

The reason why Han Peacock wasn't afraid just now was because he found that the undercurrent of the ocean was not too fast, but now it was different. It was the group of hairtails that alerted him to the danger.

The animal's reaction is the fastest and most direct. Only when it encounters danger will the hairtail school fall into huge chaos.

Han Peacock could clearly see that whether it was hairtail, shark, or some other fish on the seabed, they would start to fall into chaos as soon as they passed within thirty meters in front of them.

Only some crabs, shrimps and octopuses were indifferent. But this does not prove that there is no danger ahead.

Now Han Peacock didn't dare to gamble, so he didn't dare to enter that sea area easily. No matter what the reason was, it would not be a good thing to make the larger sea creatures in front of him panic.

Now Korean peacocks have not found any large schools of fish that prey on hairtail fish, so where does the danger come from?

The most likely thing is the vortex formed by the ocean's undercurrent.

There are so many undercurrents and whirlpools in the ocean, and the animals in the ocean are also afraid of them.

Powerful ocean undercurrents, like tornadoes, are extremely destructive, especially if they are rolled onto a reef and killed directly.

Of course, there will also be cases where it is torn apart due to disordered water flow.

Fish all have an organ called the lateral line, which is used to sense water flow (sharks are especially strong at this). If they feel there are abnormal changes in the water flow, they will avoid it, just like we humans will avoid a tornado when we see it.

As for the octopus, it really doesn't have such an organ, but the octopus has a very strong regenerative ability and its body is extremely flexible, and it is immune to ordinary blows.

The shells of crabs and shrimps can protect them, so they can ignore some abnormal situations.

The fishing boat started and it quickly escaped the abnormal sea area. At this time, Han Peacock discovered that the group of hairtail fish had returned to normal again.

This convinced Han Peacock that the sea area just now should be really dangerous.

After specifically marking the coordinates of this sea area, Han Peacock continued to chase the hairtail school. Han Peacock discovered that as long as he chased this group of hairtail fish, he would not encounter much danger. Of course, even if he encountered it, he could still rely on the reaction of the hairtail school.

avoid.

To avoid this dangerous sea area, Han Peacock directly turned off the motor on the fishing boat and relied entirely on the ocean currents to propel the fishing boat, because Han Peacock discovered that the group of hairtails were moving completely along the undercurrent of the seabed.

This group of hairtails is very smart. They swim along the ocean currents, which naturally takes the least effort. They are also very fast and there is no shortage of food along the way.

Because some small marine creatures simply cannot escape the influence of this undercurrent and can only move along the undercurrent, which brings a lot of food to the hairtail school.

"It looks like this area is not small?" After tracking the hairtail school for two hours, Han Peacock didn't find the end.

Although there are times when the direction changes, it generally moves from west to east.

"Huh? Is there a dangerous area ahead?" At this time, Han Peacock saw a sea area marked with a dangerous area on the chart.

"Is there a reef here?" Han Peacock looked at the sea area. It was far away from the shipping routes, which meant that it was not suitable for opening a shipping route. If it was not suitable for opening a shipping route, it would definitely be dangerous.

When Han Peacock chose Peacock Island, it was because there was the largest reef group there. Is it the same here?

However, Han Kongque only thought for a moment and rejected his conjecture.

If this was also a famous reef group, it might have been developed long ago, and even if it wouldn't be all land reclamation, a base would be built.

There are too many countries around this sea area. No matter who establishes a stronghold here, they can occupy this sea area. No one should refuse such a good thing.

So after much deliberation, I realized that there are reefs, but they are definitely not many in number. Plus, the undercurrent of the ocean hidden underwater makes this place even more dangerous.

Thinking of the danger, Han Peacock showed a smile on his face. This place is indeed dangerous, and no ship, big or small, dares to approach it.

Where there are reefs, the sea water will not be very deep, so large ships will not dare to approach.

As for the small boat, pushed by the undercurrent below, the speed of the small boat will definitely increase to a terrifying level. If it enters the reef area like that, it will be doomed.

Han Kongque did not dare to let the trawler drift with the current. This would probably cause the undercurrent of the ocean to carry the trawler into the reef area. If it ran aground on the rocks, it would be unlucky.

After finding a safe area, Han Peacock stopped the fishing boat. He liked the reef area here very much. You must know that this is an area on the high seas and does not belong to East Timor or Indonesia. If you occupy this area, you will be

It's fun.

However, Han Peacock looked up the sea chart here and was a little disappointed.

There are indeed many rocks not far away from him, but these rocks are not very threatening, and some warships can even pass through them.

After all, satellite technology is now advanced. As long as you have a good navigation system, you can completely avoid the submarine rocks in this sea area and safely pass through this sea area.

"The reefs in this sea area are so scattered? No wonder Peacock Island has been developed for so long and no one pays attention here. It turns out there is no development value." Han Peacock looked at the map of this sea area with regret.

The reefs are scattered very scattered, and the water is very deep. Such a place is completely unsuitable for land reclamation, or even using a reef to build a small island, because the sea water is too deep.

Although there are many reefs here, they are all the kind of tall, solitary-peak reefs. If a ship hits a reef like this, it will be a huge disaster, but it will be very difficult to use it to reclaim land.

"Huh? There are really many routes here?" Han Peacock searched on the Internet and accidentally saw a map. There were actually routes passing through here, and there were quite a few.

This aroused great interest in Han Peacock. Who is so bold to pass through such a place?

Han Peacock enlarged the chart and looked at it carefully.

"This is actually an ancient navigation chart? That's right. Ancient sailing ships used monsoon winds to propel the ships across the sea. The vast ocean here is naturally very conducive to opening up routes." Han Peacock said as he looked at the chart.

Talk to yourself.

The sea area here is open, and the ancient people did not have good detection methods. Naturally, they would not have thought that there was a large reef area in the middle of the sea.

In addition, this is an important route to Indonesia, Malaysia, East Timor, and even Australia. In ancient times, there was no satellite technology, so it was impossible to discover the reefs under the sea. Naturally, someone would open a route here.

These routes were all opened in ancient times, and this was considered an important transportation route on the ocean. In modern times, there have been more routes here, but they have all avoided this reef area.

Of course, this was in ancient times, and not all routes passed through this reef area. This shows that some ancient people also knew that this sea area was very dangerous.

The reason why Han Kongque noticed this was not because he thought the ancient people were so awesome, but because he thought it would be very dangerous for the ancient people to sail through here by boat.

Of course, Han Peacock was not worried about the ancients, but thought that maybe there was something good here, waiting for him to discover it under the sea.

Ancient people did not have satellite navigation and did not have the ability to know how dangerous the underwater environment was. Therefore, in principle, it is possible for ships in this sea area to enter this dangerous sea area today. Even if they knew it, they would not be able to completely avoid it.

A sea area.

In ancient times, apart from the nearby indigenous fishing boats, the only ships that could go to sea were maritime merchants from various countries sailing on the sea.

I don't know about other Korean peacocks, but he has studied the domestic Silk Road in particular.

The Silk Road was opened in the Tang Dynasty and reached its peak.

But in the late Tang Dynasty, the Silk Road on land gradually became clogged, so it was moved to the sea. This was the beginning of the Maritime Silk Road. (To be continued.)
