The sea breeze in the polar night is cold and lonely.

Fang Ning stared at the sea, puzzled, the tide became stronger, the moon was approaching, but the observatory did not warn in advance, this was obviously abnormal.

He subconsciously looked around, waiting for the dragon carp to come back and pass the time.

In the gray night, far in the west, under a mountain peak, you can faintly see a wall of ice with obvious artificial traces, stacked neatly and layered, like a Great Wall on ice.

From the cracks in the ice wall, Fang Ning, with his current super eyesight, could occasionally see one or two fat black and white objects moving around.

Curious, he took a closer look, and it turned out to be a group of fat penguins, but he couldn't tell what breed it was.

Fang Ning thought for a moment and asked Old George, "Do you often encounter penguins when you work here?" ”

Old man George was stunned for a moment, and although he didn't understand what the Oriental Lighthouse meant by asking, he still replied happily: "That's right, when I work nearby, I often come across them. They're just like my grandchildren, I love playing with them, and I've taught them a lot.

"Actually, the changes in the waves, they told me a few months ago, and I just started to observe and record."

Fang Ning nodded, and continued: "So, the ice wall under the mountain in the west was taught by you to them?" ”

Old George turned his head to look at him, and then exclaimed, "Sir, your eyes are so good. It was a colony of emperor penguins, a full seven kilometers away from us, and I couldn't see anything.

"That's right, I taught them to make those ice walls. It's a bunch of stupid guys with no hands, and I was going to teach them how to be an Inuit igloo.

"But they fiddled with it for months, but they only learned how to cut ice bricks out of the ice with their beaks that were sharp enough to be mutated and strong, and then built into ice walls, and they couldn't build elaborate igloos. It will take a few years for them to master this complex building technique.

"However, this is also a hundred times stronger than before when they only relied on their own bodies to block the wind, which should save them a lot of fat consumption. I think this winter, those male penguins who are hatching eggs can have a comfortable winter for the first time. ”

Fang Ning was amazed when he heard this, if animals were to open their minds, many huge problems in survival would be easy to solve as long as they learned a little from humans.

He has seen some documentaries that one of the major difficulties in the survival of Antarctic penguins is the harsh cold climate, which greatly reduces the survival rate of baby penguins.

Fortunately, this cold also prevents most of the ferocious predators from appearing, and only a few natural predators exist, which can be regarded as having both advantages and disadvantages.

Fang Ning nodded, and continued, "It seems that we have to ask the locals again to collect more clues." ”

In fact, he was just too bored to wait and wanted to find something new to check out.

You must know that this is Antarctica, there is no wireless signal, and there is no way to go to the Internet......

Then he ordered the black dog to stay here and wait for the dragon carp to come back.

Then he took Old George and Robert with them, and sat on the flying sword, and came to the ice wall in an instant.

After looking down from above, Fang Ning was even more amazed, feeling that the trip was worthwhile, and his knowledge was greatly increased.

It turned out that this ice wall was layered on top of each other, with three layers inside and outside, one layer higher than the other, leaning against the foot of the mountain, like a city wall, and tightly enclosing a large area.

There are only two openings, it seems that one is the entrance and the other is the exit.

Inside the ice walls, the fat penguins are densely packed.

They didn't do anything, they just stood dumbfounded, occasionally calling at each other.

As old George said, the cold wind howled outside, and behind the ice wall, the wind was much quieter.

This large group of emperor penguins is about one meter tall, all fat and fat, streamlined, black and white.

When they saw the three of them appear, they didn't panic, they just stayed where they were, "chirping" and screaming, not knowing what they were talking about.

After a while, the tallest and fattest penguin squeezed out of the penguin colony.

It came to a clearing, looked up at the three of them, and finally said to old George: "Oh, our dear old George, what do you want to teach us when you come here?" ”

To Fang Ning's surprise, this penguin could actually speak English, but in a very strange tone.

Well, that's right, maybe George Sr. is too old to learn deep Chinese, unlike Robert, the three of them used English to converse.

George Sr. gave the fat penguin a brief introduction to the knight armor and the questions they wanted to ask.

When the fat penguin heard this, he shook his body, then rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, you want to ask about the bigger waves?" Actually, it's okay to tell you, but this time, you have to teach us a kind of cultivation method, and I know that you humans have a lot of them. ”

When old George heard this, he was very helpless: "Hey, Mike, you weren't so insatiable before. I've taught you how to build a house, and when you learn it, you'll be able to hide from skuas, damn cold winds, and even your old rival fur seals.

"You shouldn't be like this again, after all, what I'm going to ask is of little value to you, just something in passing."

Old George is not stupid, he is a scientific researcher with a very high IQ, so he naturally knows a kind of exercise suitable for penguin cultivation, how much time it takes to study it......

Now that the crisis is imminent, how can they have that time?

The penguin leader, Michael, shook his head and said, "It may not be of much value to us, but it should be important to you, I have seen you running to the beach lately, braving the night and the cold wind, is it because if the waves get bigger, they will drown the house you built by the sea?" ”

Old George sighed helplessly and turned his head to look at the knight armor.

Xia Kejia opened his mouth and said, "You bird, you want to learn the cultivation techniques of human beings, what are you going to do with it after you learn it?" ”

Mike, the leader of the penguins, turned his head to look to the east, and there was a fierce look in his eyes: "I'm going to kill all the damn fur seals in the east......"

At this time, another fat penguin interjected, "That pack of fur seals ate Mack's first wife." After the leader turned on his psychic powers, he remembered this and wanted to take revenge, but he couldn't defeat them. ”

When the penguin leader Mike heard this, he suddenly chirped loudly, and his tone was full of hatred.

Fang Ning shuddered a little when he heard this, the biome that has not opened up the spirit also has a revenge mentality, but it is impossible to have such a strong purpose, and there is also a plan.

From the simple conversation of the penguin leader, he knew that the other party already had complete thinking ability and self-awareness, which made him sincerely feel a new pressure appear.

Is the earth big? It's huge.

But in the face of a population of organisms with strong fecundity, it is very small.

Now two different species of creatures, obviously in places where humans don't pay much attention, are going to have a bloody conflict to determine the winner......

One of the recipes of these predators, fur seals, is penguins.

Previously, penguins had no self-consciousness and almost never ran away, often waiting to be eaten, only waiting for the meat eaters to eat.

Now it's different, they, like humans, want to take the initiative to destroy their natural enemies.

Uncle System suddenly said: "Those sea seals actually did such a hurtful thing, they really deserve to be killed!" I have exercises here that are suitable for penguin practice, and the bird play in "Five Fowl Play" can be passed on to it. ”

Fang Ning was speechless and said, "Uncle, don't apply our human morality to these animals. The hunting behavior between them, that is the law of nature.

"On the contrary, if this penguin learns human techniques, it will definitely kill all those fur seals first, then seals, walruses, and finally dominate this Antarctic biosphere, breeding wildly, causing ecological chaos."

Fang Ning knew very well that human beings, who had already ruled the earth for a long time, already knew that they had to maintain ecological balance and maintain the natural environment.

Although it is not enough, this concept has become an unshakable consensus.

But these new intelligent races, I am afraid, are still dreaming of excluding dissidents and dominating the earth.

Just like in modern human times, no matter how much awareness there is to protect wild animals, it is to see one and eat one, and eat one to destroy the other.

It is not known how many species will be extinct, and it is not until the lesson of blood that the change of practice begins.

Now even an emperor penguin, which is a cute thing in the eyes of humans, has such killing intent, not to mention other more aggressive species.

When they grow, they will surely slaughter other hostile species and turn the planet upside down.

How could Fang Ning not feel new pressure?

When the system heard this, he said honestly: "I don't understand...... So what to do? ”

Fang Ning didn't have an idea for a while.

After a while, the penguin leader Mike seemed impatient, and he urged, "Do you teach or not?" The waves are getting bigger and bigger these days.

"We don't know how those waves got bigger, but we do know exactly when they started to get bigger. We haven't told George Sr. about that yet. ”

Old George touched his head and said helplessly: "Mike, it has been less than half a year since you learned to speak human words, and you have become more cunning than humans, and you know how to conceal the most important information." I'm kind enough to teach you to build a house, and you're still cheating on me. ”

Mike said proudly: "This is all learned from you humans, you use fake penguins to disguise themselves as our kind, deceive us, collect information about our changes, think I will not know?" ”

Before it could finish speaking, it saw a tall figure cover its vision.

Robert grabbed the triumphant imperial penguin, grabbed the other party's neck, and said coldly: "Self-proclaimed clever and ungrateful fool!" You only have two choices now, one is to confess immediately, and the other is that I will send you to meet your first wife. ”

"Let go, let go, we need peace," Mike the Imperial Penguin hurriedly shouted, and then said in a panic, "I said, I said, the waves have become bigger since this time last year." No, no, it should be postponed for another month or two. By the way, it was after the star fell from the sky, and then we found that the waves were slowly getting bigger at high tide every day. ”

When Fang Ning heard this, his heart was shocked, and a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind.

"Who has such a great ability to go against the laws of nature and push the moon?"

Detective Fang Ning suddenly recalled what Robert had just said, and he faintly understood.

He immediately said: "Let it go, I already know who did the good deeds, let's go." ”

Robert let go of his hand at the moment, and the old man George glared fiercely at Mike, who was hiding in the depths of the many penguins, and quickly followed.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect even a penguin to learn to be so cunning." George Sr. explained.

"Hehe, these guys who have just learned to speak, they have not yet learned such a moral concept as Grace and Tubao, and only the most primitive means are effective." Robert is like doing a trivial thing, and he doesn't mean credit at all.

Fang Ning secretly agreed, sure enough, professional things have to be done by professional people. The things that worry about oneself may seem simple to others.

This Robert, who is himself a former SBI agent, is really a basic course for him to make some confessions.
