The next day, Haizhu and Qi Laosan pulled out the anchor before the low tide, jumped on the boat and left the dock, went to the island to pick up the old turtle, and sailed all the way to Yandao.

After three months, there were many more calls of young birds in the cave, and the mother swallow went out to look for food, Haizhu and Qi Laosan seized the time to pick bird's nests where no young birds lived.

Below the cliff cave, the old turtle leisurely sticks to the cliff wall to prey on the fresh and tender shrimp, the shrimp here is small and the meat is tender and the shell is thin, and it likes to eat the juice in the mouth lightly. However, it has been keeping an eye on the movement outside the cave, and when it hears the terrified cry of the turtle, it is so frightened that it almost vomits the shrimp it has eaten.

A killer whale swam into a cave with a small space, which was extremely dangerous for it, and it hesitated to linger at the mouth of the cave and chirped tentatively.

The old turtle stuck to the bottom of the boat and did not dare to move.

"Someone's coming?" Qi Laosan heard the voice.

Haizhu also heard it, and she hesitated and said, "Is it a human or a killer whale?" ”

The killer whale screamed twice more excitedly, and no longer hesitated, it rushed in with a swing of its tail, and as soon as it got close to the boat, it spotted a turtle, which, as rumored to be, opened its huge mouth and gently swallowed it.

When Haizhu and Qi Laosan came down, they saw a black shadow in the water, which was stirring vigorously in the cliff cave, and the boat was almost shaken out of the hole.

Qi Laosan climbed down carefully, he wrapped his foot around the rope on the anchor, dragged the rope vigorously to move the boat, and suddenly saw the killer whale emerging from the water, with a turtle stuck in a sharp tooth.

"My turtle!" Haizhu shouted.

The killer whale spit out the turtle and saw Qi Laosan's purpose, so it swam to the mouth of the cave and pushed the boat over.

"Hey, that's smart." Qi Laosan jumped on the boat and touched it, it was slippery and greasy.

Haizhu followed and jumped on the boat, she cast a net to catch the old turtle on the boat, and carefully checked it, the skin was not broken or rotten, except for being frightened, there was no external injury.

The two of them rocked out of the cave first, and the killer whale followed, and it leaned over to the side of the boat and opened its mouth.

"Yo, this is the beggar whale they met yesterday." Qi Lao Sanle, "You wait, I'll cast a net for you to catch fish." ”

"How can it be so big that it lacks fish to eat, is it stuck in its teeth or stuck in its throat?" Haizhu scratched her head, that's what she meant, right? How to treat the wound in the mouth?

She had the courage to hold the killer whale's front kiss and look into its mouth, and she was rushed to a fishy breath.

Killer whales make similar sounds.

Chapter 193: Whale Guard

Qi Laosan also came over to take a look, he pinched his nose and said, "Why is there still a smell?" ”

The killer whale's row of teeth was pointed, and it didn't even look as sharp as the shark's teeth, and Haizhu looked into its mouth with bated breath, and first found that its hind teeth were bald. When the water in its mouth was gone, she saw a blood sore on its tongue, which was close to its throat, and for a while she couldn't tell what was stuck in it.

Haizhu threw away the killer whale's snout, and her palm was covered with a layer of slime, and she rubbed it on the plank, saying, "It seems to have fish bones stuck in its tongue." ”

"Can such a big mouth get stuck in a fish bone?" Qi Laosan sat on the board of the boat and looked at the killer whale that came to the side of the boat and opened its mouth wide, Bai Sensen's teeth were almost as long as his palm, he hesitated for a while, and said, "Let's go back." ”

Haizhu was silent.

"It's not human, it doesn't understand words, you put your hand in it, and once it shuts up, your arm is gone." Qi Laosan persuaded.

Haizhu nodded, no matter how close the killer whale was, she didn't dare to put her arm in its mouth.

A jet of water erupted from the sea, and the killer whale kept grunting around the boat, showing its newfound voice to the people on board.

Again, it opened its mouth and approached the boat, and Haizhu said, "I'll try it." ”

She ran down to the bottom of the bunker and took out the tongs and the shovel and spoon, and before leaving, hesitated for a moment, then took the lid of the jar and the planks from the water tank, which were moved to the stern, and ran upstairs to take out the pointed shovel, and the iron rake for the oysters.

When the killer whale came to the side of the boat again and opened its mouth, Haizhu held the fire tongs in her hand and reached into its mouth, carefully poking the blood sore, she glanced at it, but it did not move. She was a little relieved, and pressed it with the tongs, and the killer whale let out a tender call, soft and sharp.

But Haizhu turned her head and sighed again, there was a smell of blood and flesh, she turned around and shouted: "Third uncle, take a look, can you see what is stuck inside?" ”

"Invisible." Qi Laosan picked up a pointed shovel, held the wooden handle and carefully cut through the carrion, and vaguely saw a corner of white bones. He was about to move when the killer whale fell into the sea as if its feet had slipped, and it floated in the water, swishing and squirping, and making a sad cry.

The old turtle moved around the boat, craned his neck and looked out into the sea.

"Come up." Haizhu called it, she looked at the sky, and decided: "Try again, whether we can pull it out or not, we should go." ”

Qi Laosan agreed.

The killer whale swam around the boat again and again, and Haizhu lowered his eyes and waited for it to come back again, wondering what tools to use to pull out the thorns. Suddenly, her elbow was touched, and she looked up, and she glanced at the sea in the distance, with more than a dozen black dorsal fins. She stood up and looked over, it was the first time she had seen so many killer whales, a large group, and roughly counted, sixteen or seventeen.

The killer whale let out a high-pitched call, and the killer whale swimming around the boat responded by leaving the boat and swimming towards the whale group.

"It's coming to call it." Qi Laosan said.

"Let's ......" Haizhu was just about to say that he was going back, when he saw the killer whale walking halfway around again, it came to the side of the boat, opened its mouth wide, and stuck out its tongue.

Haizhu didn't have time to think about it, her movements were faster than her brain, and before her brain could react, her hand had reached over, its tongue covered the lower teeth, and her arm pressed her tongue and stuck in.

Qi Laosan didn't dare to come out, and he didn't even dare to put a tool against the killer whale's mouth, for fear that it would think he was a threat to it and then close his mouth and bite.

Haizhu had already touched the carrion, her fingers touched the raised bone spur, she was ruthless, pinched the bone spur and pulled it out, and at the same time withdrew her hand and retreated, and her arm quickly withdrew.

Qi Laosan exhaled, and only then did he feel his legs weak.

The killer whale sank into the sea, and Haizhu sat on the board of the boat to wipe the cold sweat, muttering: "Scared me to death, scared me to death." ”

"I don't think you're afraid." Qi Laosan glanced into the sea, then looked at her hand, and said curiously: "What is stuck in your tongue?" ”

Haizhu spread out his hand, it was not a fish spine, it was a bone spur, like a manta ray's bone spur, but it seemed to be thicker than a manta ray's bone spur.

"Sail, we should go back." She said.

Qi Laosan went to raise the sails of the ship, and was about to ask Haizhu if this direction was right, when he saw her carrying a bucket to wash the bone spurs.

"What else did you wash? If you throw it away, you won't get it. He said.

"Take it back as a souvenir and take it out when I'm old." The feeling of palpitations dissipated, Haizhu trembled again, she held the bone spur and said, "It's thanks to you with me, otherwise I will show off in the future, maybe some people will think I'm making up lies and bragging." ”

"You may also think that our uncle and nephew are working together to make up lies, don't fiddle with that yet, you can see if the angle of the sail is right." Qi Laosan said.

Haizhu went to adjust the sails again, and the killer whale was already happily grouped into the group, and they chirped one after another, and the water jets spewed out one after another.

"They're coming, they're definitely here to see us off." Qi Laosan said happily.

A group of killer whales showed their heads, quickly followed the boat, and caught up in an instant, Haizhu and Qi Laosan looked at it with a grin, there were big whales and small whales, they were a group.

Suddenly, two medium-sized killer whales approached the stern of the boat and opened their mouths wide, making a dry sound at Haizhu.

Haizhu ......

Qi Laosan: ......

The two men looked at each other in silence, then laughed and lowered the sails.

Once born, twice cooked, Haizhu took the fire tongs and probed in the whale's mouth, she stuck a wooden board in the whale's mouth, and reached in with her arm to find the right position and neatly pulled out the bone spur.

"Alright." Haizhu patted the killer whale's brain door and said, "Don't gobble up the meal, let's go back, you can go back too." ”

When the killer whales enter the water, they open their mouths to swallow in the water, find that the things stuck in their tongues are gone, and scream excitedly one by one, and then surface and spray water on the boat, reluctantly following the boat.

The sun was setting in the west, and a ship was surrounded by twenty-three killer whales and headed northeast. When the sunset took the place of the setting sun, and the crescent moon took the place of the sunset, the boat was still surrounded by twenty-three killer whales, which took turns to hunt and chased after them very quickly.

From sunset to dusk, from dusk to night, there are loud and long cries from time to time on the sea. Qi Laosan found that they could change their tones, like singing, and imitate the sounds of pipa and suona, and their voices were sometimes sad and sometimes joyful.

It makes sense if the merchant ships on the sea learned to play the pipa with singers, but where did they eavesdrop on the suona sound of the funeral? Haizhu couldn't figure it out.

When the moon was on the willows, the boat was close to the pier, and the whimpering suona on the sea almost scared the guards on the pier, and when they saw the faint shadow of the ship, they screamed and asked, "Who is pretending to be a ghost?" ”

"It's me." Haizhu was afraid of the guards shooting arrows, and shouted loudly: "I am Haizhu." ”

"I'm ......," the guard had barely finished speaking, and the sound of the sea changed again, and the sound of a series of dry beeps merged into one. Mao Xiaoer pulled Dongzhu, Fengping and Grandma Qi over, wiped her tears and said: "Haizhu, your family is here, if you die, you will die, don't be too resentful, I will help you take care of the people in the family, if you have anything to worry about, you just have to say." ”

"You're dead." Dongzhu puffed him.

Grandma Qi also had goosebumps, she stared at the sea, and asked in a trembling voice, "Haizhu, what are you doing?" ”

"It's not the sounds we make, it's killer whales, it's black-skinned whales, they imitate human voices, and they also imitate suona sounds." Qi Lao San shouted.

Four more torches were lit on the pier, and the people who were rushing to the sea came running, and the boats slowly returned to the bay, and the guards on the shore were waiting with their knives in hand.

Haizhu was speechless, she dropped the anchor and jumped ashore first.

"Wow!" The people on the shore shuddered and retreated.

"I am a living man." She shouted at the sea: "Stop screaming. ”

The killer whales didn't listen to her and continued to call, and they even approached to see the people on the pier.

Dongzhu walked over with courage, the tears on her face had not yet dried, and she cried again when she touched Haizhu's hand, "My sister's hand is hot, she is not dead." ”

Qi Laosan smashed the anchor and walked over and explained, "Do you remember the begging whale that the fishermen encountered yesterday? We also met it today, they came to ask for help, they had a bone spur stuck in their tongues, they were delayed and came back late, they sent us all the way back. ”

As if responding to his words, two more dry sounds sounded on the sea.

The sea was dark and dreary, and they couldn't see anything on the sea even if they were blind, and the others would be suspicious, and let them go back after confirming that Haizhu and Qi Laosan were alive.

Chapter 194: Butcher of the Sea

The stars fell, and the night passed.

Early in the morning, Haizhu and Qi Laosan couldn't wait to go to the dock with their family, and Mrs. Hou also followed with great interest with Changsheng. The tide on the sea has not yet receded, and the wharf is already surrounded by many people, and the people who rushed to the sea last night have heard the movement, and they have not had time to eat breakfast this morning.

"Haizhu is here." I don't know who shouted, and the crowded dock got out of the way.

"Are killer whales still around?" Haizhu asked.

"I didn't see it, I couldn't hear it."

"If you shout, you may hide in the sea."

"Yes, yes, you shout."

"You call it killer whales? How did you come up with this name? But it does sound more majestic than the black whale. ”

Everyone asked.

Although fishermen have lived by the sea for generations, they do not know everything about the sea, and they always name those they don't know.

"Because the tiger is the king of the jungle and the black whale is the overlord in the sea, I call it the killer whale." Haizhu replied casually, She walked through the crowd to the beach, the sea was calm, and there was no shadow of killer whales.

"When did they leave last night?" She asked Mao Xiaoer, thinking of what he shouted last night, and asked funny: "Don't you suspect that I'm a ghost now, right?" ”

Mao Xiaoer begged for mercy, asking her not to mention it again, and to lose the dead.

"After you leave, you will have less than a cup of tea, and the sea will be silent, and you may have left at that moment." Du Xiaowu came over to talk, and he asked suspiciously: "Does the black whale really make a suona sound?" ”
