Chapter 104: Whale Apocalypse

Wanshida leaned back on the side of the ship, whistled, and leisurely watched the sailors go about their business. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The three half-sized men were still practicing manipulating the bed crossbow, and they finally understood that probability was the most important determining factor in this thing...... The Wanshida family promised them that when they returned to the estuary, they would be allowed to operate larger, lighter bed crossbows.

The sailors became more proficient in their movements......

Barrels of seawater came up from the sea, and then barrels of seawater washed up onto the deck, and the once clear water turned pink, and they washed back into the water through the hole at the bottom of the ship.

It didn't take a few young sailors twenty minutes to get out of deck.

The deck, which had been covered in blood and scrap when dealing with the three wrinkle-lipped sharks just now, was now as clean as ever.

It was a sunny day, and the wind was blowing hard, and in a few moments the water was all dry, and a salt stain of white flowers had formed on the deck.

This needs to be returned to the estuary area before it can be washed away completely.

After the whole ship was busy, everyone's mentality was much better, and it was not as depressed as it was at the beginning.

Of course, Wanshida understood that those ships that went to the sea, there was no one who liked to let the sailors be idle, and they had to let them do some work.

This is good for adjusting the atmosphere, and labor is the best way.

Seeing the salting of the white flowers, he had one thing to ask the Great Song people of this time and space to see if it was the same as what he thought.

Wan Shida said to Gu Jianshan from the Chongqing region of Sichuan, "Why do you all boil salt? How convenient it is to dry salt......"

Gu Jianshan said: "How convenient it is to boil salt, you can get it directly...... Drying salt, I have also seen it, and it takes too much money to build a slate salt pond......"

So, they don't have a good way to solve the problem of water seepage, and maybe it's because if you use the bottom of a pond like yellow mud, it will cause secondary pollution when you take salt?

Sure enough, Gu Jianshan said: "If the clay is the bottom of the pool, the salt will be too dirty, and it will have to be boiled again...... Why bother? ”

Wan Shida nodded and understood, even if it was burned out of low-quality cement to build a salt pond to dry salt, it was better than this boiled salt.

Of course, there are also some requirements for the prime mover.

Xiao Xiang still has some opinions about throwing away some shark meat in vain, saying: "I can't eat ...... if I don't believe it."

Van Shida smiled and said, "Of course, nature never makes anything that people don't use, unless, you haven't found it useful...... That shark meat, if it is buried deep in the sand, after half a year, it will rot and ferment, and then take it out and cut it into small pieces to dry, it will definitely have a unique flavor when you eat it, and it has a fight with fried stinky tofu, it is a heavy delicacy......"

“…… Wan Zhu's house, what is stinky tofu? ”

"You haven't eaten it?"

"Unheard ......"

"Well, I'll do it for you when I get the whale back...... Back then, I was also engaged in this industry, and the city management rushed around, and the cars were smashed......"

“……”

The three and a half children stared at each other with big eyes, indicating that they didn't understand.

I don't understand, and Wanshida doesn't want to say more.

After a long time, Wu Dapeng was haunted by Wanshida's leaking of fried stinky tofu and rotten shark meat, because in all the food streets, there was no stall that did not sell these two stinky goods!

As I walked, there was a stench on the street!

What's worse is that many people who go out from Liuqiu Oshima miss these two things and think that they are the taste of home...... Your sister's hometown is the taste of this!

What's even more interesting is that rotting shark meat is the most popular in the Tunguska Plain, because it saved many lives one year.

This is an extreme example of a flower blooming inside the wall and smelling outside the wall.

Let's put it this way, anyway, I like it very much, and I hate it very much.

At that time, the three and a half children never forgot Wanshida's promise, and looked forward to killing the whale quickly so that they could go back and make it!

Wan Shida also regretted it a little later, didn't he make a mess for himself, where did he think that the memory of half of the children was super good......

At first, Wanshida could only make excuses that he couldn't make it without chili peppers, and it was only later when chili peppers filled the streets that he had to start making both.

These are all later words, so I won't mention them for the time being.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

When they were about to get to the Dongsha Islands, haha, whales were spotted!

Wanstar saw two humpback whales in the telescope!

Humpback whales are good, they are very docile and amiable, and their swimming speed is very slow, and if the Da Song Sea boat is properly steered, it can catch up.

As they swim slowly on the surface of the sea, they are like an iceberg, and most of their bodies sink under the water, sometimes like a free-floating island, and their bodies can be seen peeking out of the sea.

These creatures are very good swimmers and splashes, sometimes swimming a quick distance underwater, then suddenly breaking through the water and slowly ascending vertically until their flippers reach the surface, and then their bodies begin to bend backwards like the backward rolls of acrobats.

It is also possible to dive into the water and swim quickly, when it disappears under the waves and into the dim abyss in just a few seconds.

When they breathe out of the water, a short, scorching gas mixed with oil and water vapor is ejected from their nostrils, and the surrounding sea water is also swept out of the sea, forming a spectacular column of water, and at the same time emitting a loud sound similar to that produced by a steam engine, which is called "jet tide" or "fog column".

Sometimes they are so excited that they jump out of the water, up to 6 meters high, and the splashing sound can be heard from several kilometers away.

In fact, it was this action that made Wanshida discover them!

While looking through the binoculars, Wanshida said to the three and a half children: "When you are proud, you must take a good look around......

Wan Shida commanded Captain Cai Erlang to approach them!

When Wanshida commanded the whole ship, he deliberately pretended to be extremely excited, as if he had found a gold mine, and as if he had been beaten with chicken blood......

Captain Cai Erlang's face turned a little pale...... It must have been dragons, and they were slamming the water, and the screams and the rumbling squirting of the water were terrifying......

However, the shouting and laughter of the head of the Wanshida Gang may be more influential!

Captain Cai Erlang's pale face barely smiled, and he obeyed his orders......

Wanshida shouted, haha, we are rich! They are humpback whales, the most honest, the slowest swimmers, and can only eat small shrimp humpback whales...... One head can be sold for hundreds of dollars......

Give such a valuable banknote?

The sailors looked at each other......

"They don't have good eyes, and when we come to them, they can't see us......"

The head of Wanshida raised his hands high and screamed!

The three and a half sons looked at his back, and felt that something was not right, the master of the Wan family was not a person who could be so happy for hundreds of dollars, after the killing, ask carefully.

When the 001 flagship arrived more than a dozen paces away from them, the two big fish males, no, the humpback whales really ignored them.

Their cries were louder, but the sailors seemed to feel more at ease.

Wanstar knows that male humpback whales spend about six months a year singing all day, and that the ratio of percussion to pure notes in their singing is very similar to that of the two in Western symphonies.

This behemoth is capable of producing at least 7 octaves, but instead of roaring in a haphazard manner, it sings to a certain beat, scale length, and musical phrase.

Humpback whales are also very adept at singing in a "a-b-a" format commonly used by human singers, where a melody is sung first, then elaborated further, and then returned to the original melody with a slight alteration.

Wan Shida listened to the male whale still singing "oh yes", and looked at the faces of the sailors, and he felt a little relieved.

He shouted at Captain Cai Erlang: "Quick, try to hold the rudder steady, let the bow face them!" I'm going to get rich!! ”

In fact, Wanshida regretted a little, because he was in too much of a hurry, he forgot to add a cardan shaft to the whaling cannon, even if it was a simplified version!

He can only adjust high and low on the support column of the whaling cannon!

But as long as the bow of the ship is aligned......

Captain Cai Erlang felt the change in the current, and tried to stabilize the rudder, and the sailors were also cooperating.

Wanshida lit the fuse that he had twisted with his own hands, and he knew in his heart that it would burn at a speed of about five seconds!

During those five seconds, he felt the ebb and flow of the waves, mastering the rhythm, keeping the muzzle of the cannon aimed at the singing male...... It could be a newlywed couple who haven't seen them with their children.

Under normal circumstances, the mate of the humpback whale is monogamous, and the female gives birth every 2 years, raising the young, and the gestation period is about 10 months, and each litter is born.

When a female carries her young, there is often another male who follows her to protect her family.

Wanshida held the back handle of the whaling cannon, and with the undulation of the waves, he tried to aim the muzzle of the cannon at the male beast.

"Boom!"

The whaling cannon spear flew in a straight line towards the back of the whale a dozen paces away!

The hemp rope it was carrying shook in the sea breeze, and it made the sound of wire whipping the air!

"Poof!"

"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”

The one-meter-10-centimeter-long whaling cannon spear was almost completely pierced into the whale's back, and the triangular anchor-like blade on the head of the spear had already been sharpened...... When pierced into the back, the sharp blade instantly severed the large and small blood vessels and part of the nerves of the humpback whale, and soon, blood spurted out of the bloodletting groove on the hilt of the spear like a fountain!

The humpback whale stopped in place, hitting the sea with its head and tail desperately, and the cry was terrible and terrifying!

Wanshida deliberately laughed, and the laughter was heard by the whole sea ship!

"We're rich! We're rich! Drop the floating bucket!! ”

A few sailors on standby beside him threw six large pontoons in a trembling and frightened manner!

The other female humpback whale didn't know what was going on, and she seemed to want to touch him with a long kiss, but his desperate struggle made her unable to get close, and she muttered eagerly, hissing sounds.

Wanshida didn't want to fire the second shot, he felt that the first shot was very lucky, and it would be a waste to fire it again.

He shouted, let the ship turn sideways, let the two bed crossbows shoot him!

Bleed him and drain his strength......

Gu Jianshan shouted loudly at this time: "Wan family master, do you need to shoot the second one?!" What a chance!! ”

This kid is really heartless, and he will be a good whaling player in the future.

"No need, leave her alone! We can't take away the ...... at both ends."

yes, it's too big.

The two bed crossbows began to shoot one after another, with extremely high accuracy, one because the target was large enough and the other because they were close to each other......

The male humpback whale has become weak as the blood from the wound becomes more and more bloody.

Wanshida has to give him the final blow!

He let the four boats down, jumped up on his own, and shouted, "Stop the crossbow shooting!" ”

The two bed crossbows stopped immediately, for fear of injuring their own people by mistake.

Gu Jianshan ran over quickly and slid along the rope to Wanshida's boat.

Wanshida asked the sailor to row over, and he picked up the harpoon with a barb and tail hole specially built in the armory.

When he was five steps away, he felt that he was at his best at the distance of seven or eight meters......

With all his strength, he threw the harpoon in his hand hard!

"Poof!"

He saw that he had penetrated a foot deep......

When the other three boats arrived, the female humpback whale whined and swam away......

The genes in her body gave her a huge body, but it didn't give her enough spirit of resistance!
