Chapter 20: The Mysterious Penguin Egg (6)
Fosco drove a sleigh over a snow-covered, icy ice field. The landscape of Antarctica is constantly changing before their eyes, a vast white ice field, and occasionally huge glaciers collapse from the top of the mountain, falling into the icy waters, stirring up a thousand waves. They drove for a while and finally came to a huge glacier.
"This is it!" Fusco stopped the sleigh, and this time everyone learned to be obedient, and did not get out of the car in a hurry, but looked around in the car for the penguin. Slowly driving the sleigh around a huge glacier, Fosco discovered a penguin colony. There are many of these penguins, crowded together, some are basking in the sun, some are playing, and some are flapping their companions with their wings.
Vico looked at it for a long time, and then Brende said unkindly, "Hey! Vico, it's your turn, go ahead! We will pray for you! Vico glanced at Brende and walked out depressed amid everyone's laughter. Cautiously walked towards the penguin colony.
Vico walked a few meters away from the penguin colony, and suddenly, a penguin spotted her, and all the penguins in the group began to agitate, and turned their heads to her as if discussing the uninvited guest. Vico looked nervously at the penguins, praying in his heart that they would not become hostile to him.
Vico stopped, and he saw that the penguins in front of him were smaller, but they were taller than their father, with red eyes, reddish-brown beaks, and two long yellow eyebrows. Vico was taken aback, it wasn't
Southern Rock Jumping Penguin!
The Southern Jumping Rock Penguin is irascible and aggressive, and is seen as an encroacher on their territory, with dire consequences. Seeing Vico's arrival, the penguin flock suddenly moved towards Vico, gradually increasing their pace, and suddenly the first few penguins ran a few steps, and then jumped with the momentum, sliding quickly on the ground with their thick bellies, and rushed towards Vico.
Vico exclaimed, turned around and ran.
Several other people in the sleigh were also taken aback when they saw this, and they all shouted, "Vico! Come on! Fast! Vicco ran back desperately with the wind on his feet, and the penguins chased after him.
Lannie was in a hurry and said, "Fosco, start the sled, open the door, we'll pick up Vico, the others are ready!" Fosco hurriedly started the sled and drove quickly towards Vico. Several people held on to their seat belts firmly, and even the little penguins cowered behind them, their mouths biting on their seat belts.
Vico ran as hard as he could, and the sound of the southern rock jumping penguins gliding closer and closer, he felt like he had exhausted all his strength, but the group of penguins behind him seemed to have endless energy. Just then, he saw the sled driven by Fosco speeding towards him.
"Vico, quick!" Fosco shouted, and the speed increased a few points. Vico did his best, and finally grabbed the door when the sleigh reached him. Fursco immediately braked, and the body made a long mark on the snow. The colony of penguins stopped a few meters away from the sleigh cart, and they seemed to be confused by the sudden appearance of the vehicle and did not continue the attack for a while.
Vico gasped and looked at Versco and the others gratefully. Lannie patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, saying, "Vico, are you alright?" We need to get out of here. Vico nodded, looking nervously at the penguins, who seemed to be watching them, ready to attack.
Fosco cautiously started the sleigh and slowly retreated while several other people nervously watched the penguin colony, ready to respond to a possible attack. Just as the sleigh was retreating to a safe distance, the penguins suddenly jumped together and then fell back to the ground again, as if to demonstrate to them.
"Let's go!" Fusco shouted, and the sleigh sped up and left the penguin territory. Vico and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they looked back to see that the penguins had stopped their pursuit, and they had disappeared into the snow.
"It's dangerous! It's been twice today, and I almost lost my life! Vico was already slumped in his seat, and said with a palpitation. Lannie comforted Vico, "It's okay, Vico, next time we find a colony of penguins, let's hide in the sleigh and get closer to them." There will be no more adventures. ”
"Yes, I'll slow down the sled and get closer to them little by little, so that safety doesn't scare them," said Fusco. ”
Brende interjected: "I'm still scared of them, I've been over-frightened today!" I can't stand it anymore! When I get back, I'm going to have a good meal to make up for my little puffing heart! "You know what to eat!" Fosco shook his head and scoffed.
