Chapter 434 Inuit legend, the red flag of the North Pole

By asking the shaman, Yang Lin soon learned the secret of the map.

The map did not record the location of the North Pole, but a legend circulated among the Inuit tribe.

In this legend, the North Pole is the divine domain of the goddess of the sea, and the palace of the goddess of the sea is located there.

More than 10,000 years ago, their ancestors came here following the footsteps of the goddess of the sea, and lived here for generations.

Even though the sea has changed and the years have passed, they have not left.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that there is a huge lake in the palace of the goddess of the sea in the legend, and there is an island called Giant Whale Island in the middle of the lake.

The location of the island is the end of the world and the true North Pole.

When Yang Lin heard this so-called legend at first, he felt it was very nonsense.

After all, the North Pole has been verified by scientists and can only be located by the most advanced scientific instruments.

How did the ancestors of the Inuit know it?

Where did he hear that there is a lake in the center of the North Pole, and there is an island in the center of the lake.

Where did the island in the center of the Arctic Ocean come from?

The key is that his parents, who are senior intellectuals, seem to really believe it, which is outrageous.

"They are not looking for the so-called true North Pole, so they lost contact."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Lin suddenly remembered something.

"Wait, I remember that a long time ago, the scientific community had a deduction that the Arctic Ocean was a huge freshwater lake 20 million years ago, and it was the subsequent plate changes that caused the seawater in the Atlantic Ocean to flow back into the Arctic Ocean."

"From this point of view, the legend of the ancestors of the Inuit is partly true."

If he remembered correctly, this was from the 2007 "Nature" magazine. It is still authoritative.

In addition to this article from the "Nature" magazine, he also remembered a record from the ancient literary masterpiece "Zhuangzi" of the Dragon Kingdom.

"To the north of the end of the world, there is a dark sea, which is also the Tianchi. There is a fish there, which is thousands of miles wide. No one knows how to cultivate it. Its name is Kun."

The dark sea and Tianchi.

This is obviously consistent with the legend of the ancestors of the Inuit.

The Kun mentioned later is probably not an animal in the true sense but the island called the giant whale.

In this way, Yang Lin instantly felt that everything was right.

He finally understood why his parents believed in such nonsense.

However, he still didn't understand why his parents at that age would do such a high-risk thing.

"Is it because I didn't let them hold their grandchildren?"

After thinking for a long time, Yang Lin could only think of this explanation.

"Forget it, don't think too much, let's find them first."

With the general clues, Yang Lin didn't want to delay any more time, and directly led the Inuit to the direction of the North Pole.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to take a handsome selfie of himself.

With the addition of this group of Inuit, Yang Lin's team suddenly became huge.

Both the safety factor and comfort level have been greatly improved.

He didn't even need to worry about eating, as the Inuit naturally had a set of cooking methods.

After running for another 5 hours, the North Pole indicated on the positioning system was also close at hand.

Before Yang Lin got close, a bright red five-star red flag appeared in Yang Lin's sight first.

On this vast ice field, this bright red five-star red flag was so dazzling.

He really didn't expect that he could still see the five-star red flag symbolizing the Dragon Country here, and inexplicably a touch of emotion surged in his heart.

Needless to say, he also knew that the place where the five-star red flag stood was the North Pole.

And the only people who left the five-star red flag were his parents who had lost contact now.

After realizing this, Yang Lin immediately stopped the polar bear family of four.

He had to walk the last few hundred meters by himself.

Getting up from the sled, Yang Lin walked towards the location where the five-star red flag was flying with firm steps.

It took him ten minutes to cover a distance of several hundred meters.

When he approached, the sound of the flag fluttering in the cold wind reached his ears clearly.

When he stood proudly beside the red flag and took out the GPS locator, the latitude value instantly jumped to 90 degrees north latitude.

This also means that he successfully reached the North Pole and came to the northernmost end of the blue planet.

Such a historically significant scene made him excited and he did not forget to take out his mobile phone and camera that he had always kept in his innermost clothes.

After taking dozens of photos in a row, he put his mobile phone and camera back with reluctance.

"Huh! This trip was not in vain. I finally understand why my parents are so persistent in coming here."

"This feeling is really hard to describe in words."

"Such a gorgeous planet, if you can hold it in your heart at the end of your life, you will die without regrets."

After a sigh of emotion and self-pity, Yang Lin shouted to the two brothers Goudan and Gousheng.

"You two come here."

Hearing Yang Lin's call, the two brothers immediately ran over.

For them, this place is no different from other places in the Arctic.

After the two brothers arrived, Yang Lin pointed to the five-star red flag in front of him and said:

"Ask, and then remember the smell on it."

Hearing Yang Lin's instructions, Goudan and Gousheng immediately sniffed around the red flag.

Although in such an environment, it is difficult to preserve the smell completely.

If it were an ordinary dog, it would probably not smell anything.

But Goudan and Gousheng were obviously not among them.

After sniffing, the two of them quickly found the clues that Yang Lin wanted from the few residual smells.

"Director, I smell a familiar smell, it seems to be the old director."

"Yes, that's right, it's the old director, they seem to be injured, I smell blood."

When Yang Lin heard the first sentence, he was still a little excited, but when he heard the second sentence, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

"Injured, it seems that their journey here was not smooth."

"In such a harsh environment, they are still injured. No, I have to find them quickly."

Worried, Yang Lin gave the two brothers another order.

"Continue to search for the same smell around and find out where they went."

"Okay, Director! I will complete the task."

The next second, the two brothers rushed in the same direction.

Seeing this, Yang Lin hurriedly asked the four polar bears to pull the sled and follow.

Although the Inuit behind him didn't know what was going on, they had to follow after seeing Yang Lin leave.

Soon, only the red flag was left waving on the ice field in the entire area.
