Anakai Beach in the north of Easter Island is the most charming attraction on the island. In addition to a row of mighty "Moai" giant stone statues, a white beach is surrounded by a semicircle, long and wide, and there are palm trees on the shore. Green and lush.
Climb to the top of Trevaca, the highest point on the island, with an altitude of 507 meters. You can have a panoramic view of the island's large and small volcanoes and surrounding stone statues. The vast Pacific Ocean and the blue sky are integrated into one.
Not far from the mountain is the famous "Seven Samurai" giant stone statues.
Every evening, people walk here to watch the sunset. The glow dyes half of the sky red, and the huge stone statues set off their eternal silhouettes.
Autumn is approaching in April, and the night is approaching. There is a bit of chill in the air, but this does not stop people from watching the excitement at Anakai Beach, witnessing it with their own eyes, and even participating in the beginning of another legendary adventure.
"The two boats are different!" "I still like the first one."
"I think the second one is more handsome, a bit like an aircraft carrier without an island!" "What is an island?" "It's the extra tower on the runway."
"When you put it that way, it does seem a bit similar!"
The beach was crowded with onlookers, pointing at the second canoe.
Unlike the first canoe, which was shaped like a Viking ship, with pointed ends and a symmetrical and even body, the second canoe was flat and flat, with only the bow tilted up, and the stern was like a pencil tail.
It does look like an aircraft carrier without islands.
The most important thing is that the interior of the hull is not too deep, and the capacity is much smaller than the first ship.
Under the setting sun, Bifang was shirtless and wearing only a pair of loose shorts. The muscles of his arms were slightly bulging. His whole body was stretched into a diagonal line, and he pushed the canoe from the shore into the sea step by step.
While most of the tourists were wearing coats, Bi Fang couldn't feel any coldness. He was sweating slightly. Under the reflection of the setting sun, it reflected a faint light, almost shining like gold, as if he had been smeared with polish, making him look more muscular. .
Many people on the shore even whistled. This is a strong figure that can be felt just by looking at it.
The hull of the ship entered the water little by little, without any accidents, and successfully floated on the sea, even more stable than the first ship.
This time, Bi Fang didn't pay so much attention. He just got on the boat and stepped hard on the hull. The sea water spread in circles along both sides of the hull.
After confirming the buoyancy, Bi Fang directly focused on the other side and dropped hard. The entire ship instantly tilted to the other side until it was submerged under the sea water line, and a large amount of seawater poured into the cabin instantly.
There were exclamations from the shore.
But the next second, everyone was stunned. After the water flooded the hull, the entire canoe did not sink, but was still floating on the sea!
"What's going on?" "Didn't it sink?" "How could it not sink when it was already flooded?"
Everyone was whispering, some of them couldn't understand the scene in front of them. Only a few people understood that this was just a piece of driftwood!
"That's it! No wonder the cabin is so shallow and the bottom is so thick." "What's going on?"
"To put it simply, compared to a boat, this is more like a piece of driftwood. If the bottom of the boat was dug deeper, it would not be like this. If water enters, it will sink directly."

Many people suddenly realized it. But their guesses were not very accurate.
Bi Fang stood on the boat, maintaining balance and keeping his upper body floating on the water. Seeing that the audience was a little confused, he explained.
"Whether it sinks or not mainly depends on the density of the hull. The wood of most modern ships is of very good quality and has a relatively high density, so that it can maintain a certain hardness, so it will sink to the bottom once it enters the water. If it were
The first canoe, the result was the same."
"Because the outer fiber density of the palm tree is also very high, but as I said, its inner part is different. The inner structure is very loose, so it can be easily cut open with an iron tool. I use fire just to speed up the progress and remove the water."
"After planing part of the outer shell, leaving an inner layer with a small enough density and a sufficient number, the density of the entire ship will be less than that of sea water, so that even if water enters, it will not cause sinking."
"It's not so much a boat as it is a life-saving device, a piece of driftwood that can float on the sea. It's just that I hollowed out a little of the hull to make it look like a boat."
"Storms are often encountered at sea, and I must always be prepared for the capsizing of the canoe. After all, adventure is not in vain, and only in this way can it become the outboard bracket of the canoe, otherwise the two boats connected will not be a bracket.
, and the stability of the canoe cannot be guaranteed.”
As an outboard bracket, it must ensure that it will not sink easily, otherwise it will not have a stabilizing effect. Just imagine that the aircraft carrier is submerged in a heavy rain. The Viking as the main body will naturally not be spared, and may even be affected by the aircraft carrier's
Sinking and being led astray.
[Income is dead] [Bullfrog Bullfrog] [Too thin, really too thin]
Bi Fang stepped on Canoe No. 2, and the water reached his calves. Then he continued to step hard, and the canoe sank again until it reached his thighs, when it bottomed out and rebounded.
At this time, Bi Fang immediately jumped. Repeated several times, the canoe jumped out of the water under the action of inertia. Taking this opportunity, Bi Fang stepped on the edge of the boat and threw the water out of the boat. The buoyancy of the entire boat greatly increased, and it was once again
Floated on the water.
Everyone on the shore cheered and couldn't help but applaud. [This move is so cool!] [Coach Fang, teach me how to act cool!]
[Qie’s rate]
[By the way, Lao Fang, please give the two ships a name, so that they can be distinguished more easily][Crowdfunding ship names]
"What's the name of the ship?" Bi Fang thought for a while and felt that Que's should be like this, but he didn't let many netizens show their talents at all, so he decided immediately, "Then the first ship will be called Viking, and the second ship will be
Call the aircraft carrier!”
[It’s a pity that I have so many talents.]
Ignoring the unreasonable demands of the water friends, Bi Fang directly dragged the Viking into the water. When the two ships were lined up side by side, he then spread the wood he brought between the two ships.
The outboard bracket uses a piece of driftwood to assist balance, and then has brackets on both sides.
The aircraft carrier is responsible for the role of driftwood. At this moment, Bifang needs to use a bracket to connect the two together.
"Outriggers are the source of inspiration for catamarans and trimarans in the modern shipbuilding industry. The biggest benefit of this is to maximize the ship's stability and wind and wave resistance without increasing the size of the ship."

"Even based on the outboard bracket, the Polynesians also equipped the canoe with a triangular sail, which made the sailing speed extremely fast."
"Captain Cook, yes, he is the one I mentioned before, the second Chinese explorer to land on the island. When he discovered the Polynesians, he described that 'The speed and flexibility of their boats are far superior to ours.'
.”
"This is also my goal for the remaining five days. In addition to building some tools, I will also install a sail on the boat, so that the speed of my boat will be accelerated by another level. Otherwise, if I just rely on myself to row the boat, the resources near Nemo Point will not be enough."
If it’s not enough, you might die from exhaustion.”
In order to discover and conquer new islands, the Polynesians modified the canoe so much that its mother no longer recognized it.
From a small boat, it evolved directly to be able to sail long distances.
Without involving any more complex manufacturing techniques, using skills, he made a canoe that could travel across the ocean.
"Now located in the island country of Melanesia, this ancient outrigger canoe is still widely used among the people and is the main means of transportation for local fishermen to go fishing."
"And such a structure can also effectively expand the load capacity. As I mentioned before, there is a tribe in the Melanesian Islands in the Pacific Ocean. They have a terrible coming-of-age ceremony, that is, only after catching sharks with bare hands, the Melanesian people
Young people will be recognized and respected by the tribe."
"After catching the shark, they would tie the trophy on a stand and take it back to the tribe."
Bi Fang pulled out the hemp rope made of tree bark and fixed the bracket.
For better fixation, he directly used three logs and a lot of ropes.
These ropes are made of good tough bark and are kneaded until they are made. First, the fibers are twisted into thin threads, and then the thin threads are twisted again. Repeated many times, the thinner the ropes, the stronger they are. Bi Fang twisted them four times, and his fingers
Thick and incredibly strong, unless cut with a knife, it is difficult to break apart with external force.
After teaching a rope fixing method again, Bi Fang tied the three pieces of wood and completely connected the two canoes.
When you step on the edge of the Viking, compared to the fact that it tilted before, now it doesn't even sway at all, and it's incredibly stable.
When a jib is installed later, it will be completely formed.
Don't worry about the canvas. Before coming here, Bifang painted a huge white canvas in the mall, which is enough.
This kind of thing needs to be knitted. It is not impossible, but it is an extremely time-consuming job. It is completely too late to prepare in advance. It is probably because the system is trying to reduce the difficulty and give a chance of survival.
Even if it doesn't work, you can search on the island, and you may be able to find some usable cloth. It doesn't matter if it's broken, just sew it up.
The next five days were not easy for Bi Fang, he needed to make enough tools.
Obsidian weapons, a container for fresh water, fish hooks, and fishing lines are all necessary, as well as enough food and water.
Food needs to be caught personally at sea and then smoked and dried for easy storage, otherwise it will easily become moldy and spoil at sea.
After confirming that the boat was firmly fixed, could sail normally, and had sufficient performance, Bi Fang pulled it back to the shore to avoid being washed away by waves when leaving at night.

It was not completely dark yet, so the surrounding onlookers quickly raised their cameras and took pictures of everything they saw.
The next day, pictures of the connection between the Viking and the aircraft carrier appeared on major websites, and many social networks stirred up the matter.
[Two ships? Is this about to start? Looking forward to it]
[It looks surprisingly good, I didn’t expect Fang Shen to have a talent for carpentry] [There is nothing in the world that Fang Shen can’t do!] [Can he have children?]
[Pure steel bar]
[No one believes this is true, right? Do you know what he is doing every time he goes off the air? He is eating lunch from the show crew and performing in front of you, with his mouth full of oil. Does anyone really believe this?]
[Indeed, the photographer broke the news last time, and it’s just you idiot fans who believe it and lie to fools] [Little black man, are you showing your black feet?] [Come on, I’m in China, I’m ready to stay up late to watch this ]
[This time is extremely unfriendly to student parties!]
Bi Fang has already had a fan base of over 100 million all over the world. Every action he takes always attracts a large number of viewers to watch.
This situation has been doomed since he announced the project, and it cannot be changed.
Every time the live broadcast ends, the Internet is always lively for several days, and many news newspapers will even post updates online.
Island B's edited videos will also increase the number of clicks to an incredible bottom in just a few days, and they will dominate the rankings for at least a week, and then the popularity will subside.
This is terrifying data that many celebrities would not envy. Not only do they not have to go out of the circle to buy hot searches, but many media even take the initiative to take advantage of it.
The last time we rescued the gray whales, it was completed in the early and middle stages of the mission, so Bifang didn't have much internet space.
By the time sixty days passed, the Internet buzz about this matter had almost disappeared, and it became more of a legend about completing the 100-day survival challenge.
Every time this kind of popularity is achieved, a new group of fans will be attracted.
Some are jealous, some admire, some admire, some slander, and some brag. The discussions caused by fans did not affect Bi Fang's mentality at this time.
Time is tight and the task is heavy. He still has a lot to do. Day 12.
The sails were assembled and simply fixed, and the ropes were retracted and unwound to ensure that the sails could be furled in the shortest time once a storm came.
There are already a lot of tools on board the Viking, taking up everything except the sleeping area.
Five obsidian-polished tools emitted a cold light in the sun, and were tied with ropes at the ends. In addition, there were several short spears, a dozen coconuts, several fish hooks, a pile of fishing lines, and several wooden containers. and two fresh water collection units.
The principle of the fresh water collection device is the same as that of the first sea drifting operation. It uses distillation to obtain fresh water directly from the ocean. However, because of the sufficient tools, the device looks much more exquisite and is more efficient.
The three logs that fixed the Viking and the aircraft carrier were tied with a large number of ropes. First, they could be replaced at any time, and second, they were to increase friction and facilitate walking.
Bi Fang added three more wooden boards between the three logs to form a simple platform, which expanded the activity space and facilitated him to perform more operations.

There are ocean currents near Easter Island, and the fish resources are more abundant than those near Point Nemo. What Bi Fang has to do today is to go to sea and collect as much food as possible.
Otherwise, once you enter Point Nemo, you may encounter the dilemma of not encountering any fish for a week.
Many tourists who learned about Bifang's activities today got up early and stood on the top of the mountain watching Bifang pull two canoes into the sea and then move towards the open sea.
