Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 188

The lights of the whole city are on, and the hard skyline is hidden in the lights.

The tall buildings in the business district look like square cages woven with light from a distance. In the distance is a wide lake, adjacent to the lake. The traffic on the elevated road is surging, and the lights of the cars merge into a stream of light.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Matthew felt that every bit of light in this stream of light was a living firefly. They were bound by this curved, slender elevated road, and could only run forward vigorously, looking for the exit.

He wondered where his exit was, and the wild goose that was struggling desperately.

After watching Bi Fang's live broadcast in the afternoon, Matthew's mind was full of impulsive thoughts to go to nature for adventure, just like the twisted intestines after the attack of ascariasis, once the pain started, it couldn't stop.

Matthew looked at the city under his feet, took a deep breath, looked at the city under the night sky, as if facing a cliff, felt dangerous and light, like a bird flying to a high place by the wind.

He is free here, enjoying the wind, the sky, and the different smells of the city from spring to autumn, sometimes irises, sometimes leaves, sometimes the sweet smell of oranges sold on the street below.

However, there always seemed to be something missing. Matthew remembered the time when he was a war correspondent. He was frightened every day. The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to touch his chest to see if there was still flesh and blood beating inside. , although dangerous, but can clearly feel that he is still alive.

But now, go to work, clock in, go to work, clock in, life is like a pool of stagnant water, without any waves.

My heart is empty, as if knocking on my chest will make a hollow sound.

"Quick, quick, you slobs! We are the most professional news newspaper, and before midnight tonight, I want to see you all printing all the newspapers, and then appearing at the door of every newsstand!"

Fitz pulled his tie, walked up to Matthew, and enjoyed the night scene with him: "Matthew, you are such a genius, no one knows the news better than you, this is definitely the most touching story this month, and it has been posted on the website Yes, the paper ones have already been printed and will be delivered to everyone’s home tomorrow morning.”

"Fitz, I want to resign."

"What?"

Fitz felt that maybe he hadn't rested for too long, and there was something wrong with his ears, or maybe what he was in front of was not Matthew, but some alien with a different skin.

"I said I wanted to resign."

Now that Fitz was sure that he heard clearly, he was dumbfounded: "Are you sick? Are you kidding me? Look at you, you have achieved great success, and now you say you want to resign? I'm sorry, if you are serious, Matthew, then I suggest you see a doctor!"

"That's what I said." Matthew laughed, "Maybe I'll forget about it tomorrow morning."

"hope so."

On the elevated road, a car drove out of the exit and slowly stopped by the lake.

Johnny opened the car door, stepped down and lit a cigarette, and then shouted to the co-pilot colleague: "Come and drive, I'll sleep first."

Andrew also drove for a day, and he was physically and mentally exhausted at the moment. He looked at the smoky Johnny and coughed twice.

"I think it's better to forget it. Now go back and tell them that we made a mistake in the report and approve their permission so that they won't continue to investigate. Isn't it just a flock of birds, just let them move."

Andrew had reminded Johnny when he wanted to fool the report, and it was not the first time that Johnny had done this kind of thing, but no one thought that things would develop to this point, and almost everyone knew about it.

In the past, even if a fake report was used to fool people, no one would cause trouble. Some people even thought that the test was not up to standard, and took the initiative to spend money to get a qualified report.

Over time, no one would feel uncomfortable in this matter, but this time things are really big. Not only Johnny may have an accident, but even Andrew himself cannot get out of it safely.

As a review agency, it was revealed that the report issued was false. No one dared to imagine the consequences of this incident. Even Johnny's father couldn't keep him, and he would definitely go in.

Johnny didn't respond, the cigarette in his hand was visibly shortened by the naked eye, and faint sparks were burning in the dark car.

Seeing that Johnny didn't respond, Andrew gradually complained: "I warned you before that this is not good, but you never listened, if you listened to me then"

"Enough!" Johnny snarled, and a long piece of soot snapped off, falling straight onto the blanket and shattering. "If you're told to drive, you can fucking drive!"

"Would you guys be okay if something happened to me? Don't even think about it! None of you can escape, now all you have to do is drive, drive, drive! Then go after 'em, catch 'em, and fuck all the goddamn geese shot!"

Johnny finished the cigarette in one gulp, threw the butt of the cigarette on the car mat, and stomped it out hard.

Andrew's fingers on the steering wheel turned white. Without saying a word, he turned the key to start the engine, turned the car around, and drove onto the viaduct again.

Running forward like a firefly, looking for an exit.

...

【Stars can also measure latitude and longitude? 】

[Isn't it, such an exaggeration? Stargazing at night, contemporary Zhuge? 】

[It's awesome, it's late at night, can there be a shadow on the ground with a stick? 】

"Not using shadows. Have you ever heard of a sextant? This is an optical instrument used to measure the angle between two distant targets. The principle was first proposed by Newton."

"In the wild, we can simply make a sextant and use it to measure latitude and longitude. All we need is a night where the North Star can be seen clearly, a piece of paper, a thread and a small stone are enough."

Bi Fang fixed the crossbar of the plane and began to operate. He first took out a piece of paper, and then used a pen as a radius to draw a quarter circle at one corner, and then carefully tore it along the edge to get a piece of paper. A quarter circle piece of paper.

Then Bi Fang carefully marked the scale on it, dividing it into two and marking it at forty-five degrees.

"The accuracy of the scale marking is related to the accuracy of the sextant. The higher the accuracy, the more accurate our positioning. Here we can use the dichotomy method, and then mark the rest of the scale bit by bit."

After marking the scale, Bi Fang took out a small stone from nowhere, tied one end of it with a thread, and pressed the other end on the center of the disc.

"We let the arc side of the disc hang down naturally, use the gravity of the stone to straighten the line, align it with the number on the scale, and then align the center of the circle with the edge generatrix to form a straight line, and the end of the line must be aligned with the Polaris. "

Bi Fang aimed at the Polaris, let the stone hang down naturally, and the taut rope naturally hung on a scale.

Following his line of sight, the audience looked out from the edge of the disc, and following this straight line, the shining Polaris was at the very top of their eyes.

"At this time, the altitude of the celestial body and the latitude of your location have already come out. Note that only the North Star can be used here. If you use this method to measure the sun, you cannot calculate the latitude, because the altitude of the sun changes throughout the year. Given the altitude and latitude of the celestial body, the longitude is naturally the same as before, which is very simple."

Bi Fang knows that this method has errors, but it is enough to determine the approximate position, at least it will not fly out of Denmark.

【very simple? 】

[Fuck, I feel a sense of familiarity when you do this, it's a bit like the plot in the movie where Stallone escaped from prison, it seems that I also made a sextant]

[I know, it's the silver cicada escaping its shell! 】

[It’s not the same, I feel that Lao Fang’s method seems to be simpler, and he doesn’t even need lenses]

Seeing the comments from netizens, Bi Fang was shocked. There is also this movie in this world?

He has also seen this movie, which tells the story of Stallone, who is a prison escape master, being framed and imprisoned and then escaped. He has a deep memory: "Yes, the principles of the two are similar, but movies are always movies."

In the movie, the prison where Stallone was imprisoned was a mobile cruise ship. In order to know where he was so that people could pick him up, he used a self-made sextant to let a prisoner out on the deck to measure the data, and then calculated the latitude and longitude.

"The protractor in the movie is hand-painted like me, but his sextant is reflected by two plane mirrors, so that the image of the star point coincides with the image of the sea level. Regardless of where the plane mirror comes from, the bigger problem is the film. Here his reflector is made of glasses!

Not to mention that there is no reflective film, the key is that it is not flat at all, and all connections will eventually be wobbly, even if they are tight, they have not been calibrated before use.

In addition, you need to see the sea level. Can the Arab stay in a place like a patio to see the sea level?

Even Brother Nuo asked whether it is the southern hemisphere or the northern hemisphere. This is actually redundant. As I said just now, the North Star cannot be seen from the south, but it is quite interesting to judge the northern and southern hemispheres by looking at the water vortex inside. "

[Fuck, awesome! 】

[You have to blow it hard, you can do it, what? Are you Fang Shen? That's fine. 】

[It is strongly recommended that directors of this kind of movies in the future ask Fang Shen to be a consultant, this is the real master of survival! 】

[I think Fang Shen can take pictures by himself... handsome and fierce? 】

[Why do I want to shoot, I feel like I am already watching a movie. 】

[What if you don’t have anything at hand? 】

"Nothing is fine."

The so-called masters are those who can do what others can't. Without pen and paper, you should have your hands, right?

If he doesn't even have hands, I'm sorry Bi Fang said that it would be difficult for him to survive in the wilderness in this situation, so he might as well dig a hole, wash up and sleep.

Bi Fang stretched out one hand, stretched as far as possible, and stretched out his index finger: "A novice astronomer can easily measure the height of a celestial body quickly through fingers, joints and palms. I guess the accuracy is the same as that in the movie. Almost a sextant."

"First of all, let's stretch our arms as far as possible. Point out the index finger. The width of the fingertip is 1 degree. When the index finger is hooked up, the width of the three joints is 2 degrees, 3 degrees, and 5 degrees. The width of the fist is about 10 degrees, the width of the closed thumb is about 8 degrees, the hand is in the gesture of six, and the width from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger is about 20 degrees."

"This method can also measure latitude. The accuracy may vary from person to person, but it is simple and convenient, and the error is about 5 percent."

Men are six times more likely to be struck by lightning than women, perhaps because they swear more.

This was reminded that it had been posted, so I will make up another one.

There are many natural enemies of snails, but the most incredible thing is that fireflies are also natural enemies of snails. Fireflies will first inject a paralyzing liquid into the slow-moving snail, so that most of the snail's body cannot be retracted into the shell, and then other fireflies will be attracted to eat the snail's body frantically.

Thanks to the happy Yang Zhupi for the reward of 10,000 points, and thanks to Jiang Shanmei Renya for the reward of 1,500 points for the reward of eating melon and returning blood to the blood of Runtu, and Beiming Nuonuo for the reward of 500 points.
