Chapter 141 Emperor Penguin

Ask for a reward, ask for a reward.

----------

Flying in Antarctica is completely different than flying on other continents.

If you don't actively turn on the radar on the plane, the whole plane is no different from being invisible.

The reason is that there are only three passenger planes on this land.

It was as if the three sparrows were flying and flying within the scope of a prefecture-level city, and they would not be able to meet each other until they died.

On other continents, even in Africa, any aircraft is always under surveillance on the ground.

However, in Antarctica, it is not without means of monitoring aircraft.

Basically, larger scientific research stations have their own radar equipment.

After the plane took off, Fang Hong turned off the live broadcast, but turned on the video of the day before yesterday in the live broadcast.

Timelapse.

Few clouds passed by in the sky. Throughout the day, a white cloud floated to the other side, and the ice sheets on the ground were constantly changing colors under the sunlight.

The whole picture is extremely quiet, as if the wind does not exist at all.

In fact, the wind here is stronger than anywhere on the earth, but it is summer now, and the strong wind will be terrible after the polar day is over.

The speed of storms, sea storms, and sandstorms in other regions of the earth is a joke compared to the winds in Antarctica.

The formation of wind, of course, depends on the temperature difference, either due to the undulations of the terrain or the temperature difference between day and night.

When the entire Antarctic is covered by the sun, the traces of the wind become uncapturable.

After two hours, the plane began to descend.

After landing, Fang Hong started the live broadcast: "Now we have reached the northern side of the Antarctic mountain range...Of course, this is nonsense. In an area like Antarctica, talking about directions is a very boring thing."

"Brother Gun, where's the penguin? Where's the penguin?"

"Don't worry, emperor penguins live on the north side of the mountains across Antarctica, at the intersection of the Ross Sea and the Ross Ice Shelf, on Cape Cots, which has been ravaged by cold winds. We are still more than 50 kilometers away from where."

"Damn, Brother Gun, are you going to walk over there?"

In fact, several scientists are moving things, even Professor Wang is no exception.

Fang Hong rolled his eyes: "How is it possible, look behind you."

The live camera turned to a large helicopter parked on this side.

"Another scientific research ship in the Indian Ocean—Ocean No. [-] arrived in this sea area yesterday, and the helicopter flew here today. This kind of research mission requires several scientific research institutions to complete it, which is not as we imagined. So simple, after all, this is Antarctica, and this is the most southerly sea area on earth, eight degrees higher than the latitude of the Antarctic Peninsula."

The reason why the scientific research mission to be carried out this time is the first time in China is because of this reason.

First, the Xuelong had its own tasks before, and the tasks were prioritized, so there was no way to carry out this scientific research task. Second, before there was no plane to pick them up, a scientific leader like Professor Wang would basically not know how to do it. Running around because his time is like gold.An inch of gold is an inch of time.

This time the large helicopter came over and brought two other scientific expedition personnel.

In other words, there are six scientific expedition personnel in this line, plus Fang Hong and the crew, a total of nine people form the scientific expedition team.

It's awesome to say it, and a scientific expedition team formed with professionals is flying all over Antarctica.

"The first destination of our trip is Penguin Bay, but it won't be too long. The main reason is that Qiu Qing is going to install some cameras for shooting penguins and take away the instruments placed before."

As long as there is an investigation in this area, Qiu Qing will definitely come. Without Qiu Qing, Professor Wang and the others will not have a peaceful life.

The point is that Professor Wang and the others don't want to go to Penguin Bay at all.

On the helicopter, Fang Hong and his water friends bragged: "If you are interested in Antarctica, you can apply for a cruise group. I checked two days ago, and the number ranges from tens of thousands to 10,000+. It is estimated that there are people camping in Penguin Bay right now."

As long as you can make money, protecting any habitat is nonsense, and there is no ethics in making money.

From the helicopter, you can clearly see the coastline.

On one side is the snow-white ground, and on the other is the deep blue sea.

The penguin gathering place is not far ahead, and the ground looks like mud.

Professor Wang: "Go early and come back early."

Qiu Qing looked at his watch: "One hour."

After some tossing, it is already afternoon, and the scientific research project will be postponed for one day. After the cameras are deployed, it is necessary to return to the ship to rest by helicopter.

Of course, you can also camp, but for tomorrow's scientific research project, you must recharge your batteries.

The two carried their bags on their backs, both of which belonged to Qiu Qing, and they had to be accompanied. Professor Wang was very happy to have Fang Hong as a substitute.

The two walked on the ice field and went up, and had to cross a small ice ridge to reach the penguin gathering place.

The two were chatting when a black shadow crawled out of the water and jumped towards Qiu Qing with a snap.

Fang Hong withdrew to Qiu Qing: "Be careful."

Qiu Qing shrugged: "It can't bite me..."

Fang Hong looked back and found that it was actually a seal.

The water friends were overjoyed: "666, this seal is awesome, this big jump is one-fifth of the distance away from Qiu Qing."

"It looks silly and cute."

"Seals can be said to be the natural enemies of penguins. The water in this bay is quite deep, and with the movement of ocean currents, the temperature here is higher than that in the south and other northern coasts, so biological activities are also very frequent."

Fang Hong smiled: "But it's a bit close to attacking people. Don't let it bite you and you'll be fine."

The two climbed over the small ice ridge, and as expected, there were many people here.

Some of them are also scientists or filming teams, as well as some tourists.

However, Fang Hong was not excited to see the penguin at all.

"QQ, log in and log in."

"Haha, look, does this penguin look like a QQ login when it swings?"

"I'll go, there are many, these penguins are very big."

"So cute, with blood all over her face."

Compared with the various senses of the water friends, Fang Hong currently only has one feeling: "It stinks."

"Smells like a sewer."

"Overwhelming stench."

The water friend was speechless: "How could that be?"

Qiu Qing explained: "Penguins hunt in the sea, but they don't defecate in the sea. They defecate at the gathering places on the shore. The smell is indeed very strong. The dirty snow on the ice near the emperor penguins looks like mud mixed with snow. The feces are all on the ground, so the smell is very strong. The penguins near the Antarctic basically have feces that are very smelly. The smell of the emperor penguin colony is indeed similar to the city's sewers, and the stench is unbearable."

It is conceivable that those who spend tens of thousands of dollars to camp here will experience what they will experience in the next day.

Different from other penguin colonies, the emperor penguin colony has strict controls. Except for scientific research equipment, nothing is allowed to be left here, and no fire is allowed. If you want to camp, you must camp behind the south side of Xiaobingling. Cannot camp with penguins.

Qiu Qing looked at the emperor penguins everywhere: "Look at the yellow feathers on their necks, that's why they are called emperor penguins, it's like a crown."

Of course, the crown is not on the top of the head, but on the neck.

Fang Hong was unable to complain: "Your speed, I'm going to vomit."
