"Fuck! Sea lions!" When Fang Youqun swam to the surface of the sea and took a closer look, he was immediately frightened to death and quickly climbed to the deck using his hands and feet.
Compared to the rare and docile humpback whales, sea lions are ferocious and numerous sea animals. Most fishermen will take a detour when they see sea lions, because sea lions will not only attack humans who enter their attack range, but also like to drill into the trawl nets behind fishing boats and tear up the nets.
He Mingde and the others had similar reactions. Even after escaping to the deck, they were still sweating coldly. Just looking at the sea lions moving around the fishing boat made them feel scared. Oh my God, they actually dived into the sea surrounded by so many sea lions just now
"Quick, count the number of people and see who is still under the sea." Chen Qingsheng didn't care about the water drops on his face, and shouted with a harpoon. Chen Qingsheng is now the boatswain, and if there are still sailors under the sea, he must go into the sea to save them.
There was a sudden commotion on the deck.
Soon Chen Fusheng said with an unpleasant expression: "The crew members are all here, but the captain is not on the deck."
The crew members looked at each other in panic.
"Brother De, what should we do now?" Chen Qingsheng looked at He Mingde. Now that Xiang Yang was not on the boat, He Mingde would be responsible for all safety hazards on the boat.
He Mingde frowned and gritted his teeth, saying, "Xiang Yang must still be on the bottom of the sea. Lao Qing, Lao Zhou, you two take the harpoons and follow me to the sea to find Xiang Yang. Xu Fang, Ah Fu, you two take the people on the boat to support us. No one is allowed to go into the water without my order."
“Let’s do it.” Zhou Wang quickly picked up a fishing fork and waved it, his muscles bulging like old tree roots.
"Wait." Xu Fang said, "Look over there."
Everyone looked in the direction of Xu Fang's finger, and saw two humpback whales slowly emerging from the sea.
He Mingde's face lit up with joy, "Great, these two big guys will definitely drive away these sea lions when they come back."
However, the next scene almost overturned He Mingde's worldview.
I saw a one-meter-long sea lion holding a half-foot-long small sea fish in its mouth. It swam clumsily to a humpback whale and put the small sea fish to the humpback whale's mouth with a flattering look on its face.
The humpback whale opened its mouth and swallowed the small fish, then gently touched the little sea lion with its big head.
The little sea lion excitedly flipped twice in the sea, then waved its pectoral fins and tried to climb towards the humpback whale.
But the humpback whale's skin was too smooth, and the little sea lion tried several times but failed to climb up. Its clumsy and funny look was so adorable.
"???"
He Mingde felt his head full of question marks. Are those two guys under the deck really a humpback whale and a sea lion, not a humpback whale and a baby humpback whale
Chen Qingsheng and others also looked confused.
The new crew members from Yanlong Village all looked like they had seen something new. They shouted excitedly, "Wow, it turns out that sea lions and humpback whales are friends."
"Were these sea lions called by the humpback whale? Then will they not attack us?"
"That little sea lion is so cute. I really want to go down and hug it."
He Mingde also looked at Chen Qingsheng, "Old Qing, what's going on?"
"My knowledge of these two creatures is limited. Brother De, you should ask Master Xu about this kind of question instead of asking me!" Xu Fang is the oldest among all the crew members on the ship and knows the most about the ocean. He even systematically studied some marine creatures when he was learning to drive a boat.
He Mingde immediately looked at Xu Fang, "Master Xu, I really don't understand the actions of these sea lions and the two humpback whales. You know the most, can you tell us about it?"
Xu Fang hummed.
He Mingde listened.
Xu Fang said, "Then let me tell you, this group of sea lions and humpback whales... ... I don't understand it either."
He Mingde fainted!
Chen Qingsheng fainted!
The young crew member on the deck who had his ears perked up fainted!
The atmosphere was so awkward, but at this moment Xiang Yang appeared!
"Captain!" Fang Youqun shouted loudly.
Xiang Yang was seen riding on a three-meter-long sea lion and rushing out of the sea with the sea lion, then circling around the fishing boat like surfing, leaving a jet of white water line behind him.
"Hey!" After turning around, Xiang Yang and the sea lion stopped on the left side of the fishing boat. Xiang Yang smiled and greeted everyone on the fishing boat.
Everyone on the boat was stunned, and many even thought they were seeing things and rubbed their eyes hard.
"Why aren't you talking?" It wasn't until Xiang Yang spoke again that the people on the boat reacted.
"What the hell, Captain, what's wrong with you?"
"Aren't sea lions very ferocious and likely to attack people? Captain, how did you manage to ride on a sea lion?"
Xiang Yang patted the head of the sea lion under him, and the sea lion immediately moved its body.
ferocious
Attack humans
"No, sea lions are good friends of humans."
Xiang Yang's face was full of joy.
If Uncle Xiang and others still don't understand what this scene means, then all these years on the sea would have been in vain.
Xu Fang was the first to change his expression. "Captain, have you tamed these sea lions?"
He Mingde was stunned. "Tamed? Are you kidding? Xiaoyang, aren't you fishing for pearls with us under the sea? In the time it takes me to pry open a clam, you tamed a group of sea lions?"
Fang Youqun didn't quite understand, "Why, is it difficult to tame sea lions?"
"Difficult?" Chen Qingsheng glared at Fang Youqun. "Sea lions are very ferocious marine animals. They will only get close to humans after being tamed. They will help humans complete many underwater tasks and can also interact with humans in various ways in ocean theme parks. Do you know how long it takes for an average trainer to tame a sea lion? Do you know how much a trainer who tames sea lions earns in a month?"
Fang Youqun still didn't understand, staring at the sea and said, "I see the captain tamed it very quickly, I can do the same."
Chen Qingsheng rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to Fang Youqun. He looked at Xiang Yang as if he were a god.
Xiang Yang gently patted the sea lions under him and said with a smile: "Actually, I haven't tamed these sea lions."
"Hmm?" He Mingde looked at Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang smiled and said, "This group of sea lions just fought with the humpback whale, and one of the sea lions was seriously injured. After I stopped them from fighting and treated the injured sea lion, they regarded me as a friend. In fact, sea lions are really very good friends of humans. They are extremely friendly to humans. The reason they attack humans is just because humans have caused too much harm to them, so they are just protecting themselves. As long as someone is truly kind to them, they will also accept this person very friendly."
"You stopped the war between the sea lions and the two humpback whales?" Fang Youqun was sweating coldly. Although Xiang Yang said it easily, looking at the number of these sea lions and the huge size of the two humpback whales, how easy is it to separate the two fighting parties? Fang Youqun shuddered at the thought of the danger.
