The mountains of the island were located in the central area, and the edges were coastal plains. The narrow plains were covered with moss and lichens, and occasionally some arctic foxes and lemmings could be seen.
The arctic foxes and lemmings were small creatures, and the fog did not affect them, so they could live as usual.
The fog hung thickly over the land and the sea. Steve sighed. "The world is big and full of wonders. The sea fog is huge. How big do you think it is?"
"Maybe the whole island is under its control," Li Du said casually.
After driving for a long time, they came to a swamp. As soon as the driver drove in, he felt something was wrong and quickly stepped on the gas to reverse the car.
Everyone had to get out of the car and search for a new path.
With the sea fog in the way, they could not see well when they were standing, but when they lay down, they could see further.
Steve got down and yelled, "Hey, God!"
Li Du and the others quickly asked, "What's wrong? Are you in trouble? "
Steve smiled sheepishly. "No, I saw a gopher. It was too close to me. I just lay down and it appeared in front of me."
There were fewer creatures on the island, mainly gophers. They ate moss and lichens, ate insects, and caught small fish in the rivers and swamps. That was how they survived.
Gophers had the same reproductive ability as other species. As long as there was enough food, they could keep breeding. Therefore, the presence of gophers in one area meant that there were many gophers in the surrounding area.
Li Du did not have to lie on the ground to check the road. He released the little bug, and he could see as far as the bug could go.
But for flat areas, the distance he could see might not be as far as lying on the ground.
The little bug's vision was not affected by light. It could see its surroundings day or night, but like a human's eyes, it could be obstructed by objects.
If it had only been night time, the little bug would have been able to see very far as usual. However, there was fog now, and its vision was obstructed by the fog.
Just like underground, when the little bug burrowed into the ground, all it could see was its surroundings. Its body could pass through any object, but its vision could not.
In addition, there was another problem when he wanted to use the little bug's vision. His own vision disappeared.
In order to see further, he had to walk forward. After a few steps, he realized that he had entered the swamp. He quickly recalled the little bug, switched his field of vision, and left the swamp.
Steve and the others lay on the ground, and then they began to discuss it.
Li Du bent over and asked, "What are you guys discussing? It looks very lively. "
Steve said excitedly, "Come here, buddy. We have a new discovery. Look, do you see those gophers around?"
There were indeed some gophers living in the wilderness. Li Du lay down and scanned his surroundings. He saw five or six gophers digging for food on the ground.
"What happened?"
"Right now, the fog is very thick, and our vision is blocked. Do you think the world has become very blurry? But look at these gophers, their lives aren't affected at all! "
Li Du said, "Of course, the fog did not affect them."
Steve clapped his hands and said, "Yes, it's like a two-dimensional world and a three-dimensional world. The gophers live in a two-dimensional world, and we live in a three-dimensional world. So when the fog comes, our world is affected, but their world is not."
Li Du said blankly, "What are you talking about? The gophers also live in a three-dimensional world. No, the world they live in is the same as ours. "
Steve said, "You feel that we are the same, but do the gophers have the same concept of time as us? If there is only space and no time, how can our world be the same? "
"Besides, we are just associating this with a model. It doesn't mean that the gophers really live in a two-dimensional world, but that the multi-dimensional world may not be that far apart. It's just that we are always in the fog and can't touch it …"
Steve's voice was very excited, but slowly, Li Du felt that his voice gradually became distant, and he could not hear the last few words clearly.
It was a strange feeling. He shook his head, as if his consciousness was becoming blurred.
After shaking his head, he felt much more awake and said subconsciously, "What happened? I didn't sleep well last night … "
"Oh, sh * t!" A scream came from the side.
Everyone quickly looked over. The guide, Andrey, was pale and panting.
Steve asked, "What's wrong, buddy?"
Andrey swallowed and said, "I saw a few tentacles just now, like those d * mn king squid or king squid. Do you know? Do you know them? "
Steve nodded and said, "Giant squid from the deep sea."
Andrey also nodded. "Yes, yes, yes, that's them. I saw a few big tentacles just now, and there were some red suckers on the tentacles. I thought they were suckers, but I also thought they were eyes! God! Could that be the devil of the deep sea, Titok? "
Li Du and the others laughed. Steve went over and patted him on the shoulder. "Impossible, haha, this must be a superstition. There are no devils of the deep sea. If there were, how could it overcome the different pressures of the deep sea and the ground? "
Young Ford, who had been silent, said softly, "I think I saw it too."
Everyone stopped laughing. Steve looked at young Ford in surprise and said, "Buddy, are you kidding me?"
Young Ford looked confused and said, "That thing looked like the tentacles of a giant squid. There were red eyes on it, and it did look like a tentacle tray …"
Sophie pulled Li Du's arm and said, "This is not right. Where are the gophers? Why are they all gone? "
Because of the fog, the gophers could not see the bodies of Li Du and the others. At most, they could see their feet. When the group did not approach them, they were not afraid, so they did not run away. That was why the group could see the gophers.
Hearing Sophie's words, everyone lowered their heads and scanned the ground. Indeed, the gophers that had appeared on the ground earlier had disappeared.
Andrey said in a panic, "Could it be that Titok took them away and ate them?"
Steve shook his head and said, "Don't be silly, buddy. There are no devils of the deep sea, and there are no Titok. They must have been frightened and ran away. "
"Then, what scared them?" Andrey asked immediately.
"Look, another gopher has appeared. They did not all disappear." Li Du saw a gopher coming out from a bush.
Just as he pointed his finger at the gopher, the gopher seemed to have been caught by something. It suddenly struggled in panic and disappeared with a whoosh!
Then, Li Du vaguely saw a long, thick tentacle flash past behind the bushes...
