Yang Lin was a little puzzled about this.
"No, you are Bianmu, why are you so excited? Do you have Erha blood in your body?"
Just when Yang Lin was going to look up relevant information, there was a sudden strange sound from the sea area not far from the Xuelong.
Looking in the direction where the sound came from, Yang Lin first saw a few sticks protruding from the sea water.
At the same time, there was also a huge monster with a very familiar appearance in black and white.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an adult killer whale.
It's just that the killer whale at this moment looks quite miserable, with obvious penetrating wounds visible in several places on its body.
A large amount of scarlet blood flowed into the sea water along its body.
But even with such a serious injury, it still kept jumping onto a large ice floe.
After jumping for more than a minute, it finally jumped onto the ice floe and successfully stranded itself.
Seeing such a strange situation, Yang Lin immediately showed curiosity.
It stands to reason that in this high-latitude sea area, killer whales should be regarded as the top hunters, and there are no other marine creatures that will be its opponents.
But now he was beaten like this, and even took the initiative to jump on the ice floe.
Just as he was lying on the side of the boat watching the excitement, a few small heads popped out around the ice floe where the killer whale was stranded.
Looking at these small heads with a long horn on top of them, Yang Lin finally understood what it was that beat up the orca so badly just now.
"It turned out to be you, Ocean Assassin—a narwhal."
As one of the few cetaceans that only live in the Arctic Ocean all their lives, narwhals are relatively weak in combat effectiveness.
But if they are really pushed, the horn-like fangs above their heads will turn into sharp lances.
When they charge in groups, no matter what kind of ocean overlord you are, let's poke your air first.
After knowing the identities of these guys, Yang Lin immediately sent a signal to Kun Baobao, who had been escorting by the side.
In the next second, Baby Kun's huge body rushed directly into the ice floe area.
When it came back again, the narwhals that had besieged the killer whale followed behind it like a younger brother.
As local aborigines, they also have a high IQ. They are undoubtedly the best guides for Yang Lin to understand this sea area and even the entire Arctic.
Chapter 423 A narwhal becomes a pilot whale and a polar bear
It only took a minute or two to tame the narwhals. When Baby Kun brought them back to the side of the Xuelong, everyone on board didn't even notice.
Not to mention that a group of local aborigines have joined their scientific expedition team.
However, this situation only lasted for less than a day before being broken.
"Are you sure there is a large area of ice floes ahead?"
"It was the narwhals who told you, so it shouldn't be wrong."
In the cabin, Yang Lin, who was admiring the scenery outside the boat, suddenly received a message from Baby Kun.
And the content of the news made him pay attention instantly.
Although the Xuelong is an icebreaker, it can break through ice layers as thick as two meters, but it is not absolute.
If you fall into a large ice floe area, there is still a high chance that you will be trapped.
Once trapped, it is not possible to get out in a day or two.
So in order to avoid this situation, Yang Lin immediately issued an order to the narwhals through Baby Kun.
He couldn't directly tell the scientific expedition team where there was an ice floe area in front of them, so he could only let the group of whales tell them.
Five minutes later, the crew's exclamation was heard again on the deck.
"A lot of whales!"
"These are all narwhals. Why are there so many of them? What are they doing in front of the boat?"
"I don't know, it seems that they gathered here suddenly."
"Should we continue to move forward, or consult the experts on the ship."
"Ask the experts. There must be some deep meaning to the behavior of these narwhals."
Not long after the crew finished speaking, Yang Lin and a group of experts from the scientific expedition team were invited onto the deck.
And when a group of oceanographic experts looked at the narwhal in front of the Xuelong, which kept poking its head out of the sea, their faces showed confusion one after another.
"Impossible. Animals like narwhals should be very wary of humans. Why did they dare to get so close to us this time?"
"Yes, the Inuit hunt and kill thousands of narwhals every year. They should run away when they see people."
"Can they recognize that we are not Inuit?"
"It's hard to say, we still know too little about narwhals."
After several marine experts discussed to no avail, Teacher Xiaoliang who also came up to the deck turned his attention to Yang Lin.
"Director Yang, you, a recognized expert in animal behavior, don't know about it."
Hearing Teacher Xiaoliang's words, the eyes of all the experts and professors present immediately lit up, and they looked at Yang Lin at the same time.
But Yang Lin pretended to be flattered.
"Don't dare, dare not, how can I dare to be called an expert in front of these seniors? At most, I am just Ye Guchan, without orthodox study."
"Xiao Yang, what you said, what's wrong with not going through orthodox study, and not all knowledge is necessarily obtained from books."
"That is, we old guys have all heard about your story. You are really doing the facts for the cause of animal protection."
"Yes, just say what comes to mind, don't hide it, maybe in terms of animal behavior, some of us old guys have to call you a teacher."
Faced with the love of all the experts and professors, Yang Lin finally said what he had wanted to say after a lot of procrastination.
"I don't think their behavior is unconscious. They are now stopping in front of the Xuelong, and they are probably warning us."
"Warning?"
Hearing these two words, everyone present frowned.
"In ancient European mythology, the unicorn was first escaped from the narwhal."
"And the kindness and beauty of unicorns actually come from unicorns. According to legend, unicorns will help humans, so I think unicorns must have sensed the danger ahead, so they ran to the front of the scientific research ship. .”
"It makes sense, it seems that there is such a saying."
"The ancestors of the Inuit seem to have taken advantage of this to catch narwhals."
"It's on par with those who catch sables in our country."
"I also think Director Yang's analysis makes sense, and now we just need to verify it."
"Don't we have a drone, just let the drone fly to the front to check it out."
After it was generally believed that what Yang Lin said was reasonable, the scientific expedition team quickly released a drone to fly along their current route.
After flying about three or four nautical miles, a huge ice floe area appeared on the route.
If it's just ice floes, the Xuelong can barely travel. The crux of the problem is that in addition to the ice floes, the drone has even photographed a large number of collapsing icebergs hidden in the depths of the ice floes.
When these scenes were sent back by the drone, everyone on the scientific research ship immediately took a breath of the cold air of the Arctic Ocean.
If such a group of ice floes really rushed over, they would definitely be trapped inside, and there was even a risk of hitting an iceberg.
"It seems that these narwhals are really warning us."
"Fortunately, they appeared, otherwise it would be troublesome."
"Why didn't the satellite detect this group of ice floes?"
"The climate in the Arctic Ocean is changing so fast now, God knows where it came from."
......
While everyone sighed and rejoiced, the group of narwhals chose to move forward again.
Seeing this scene, Yang Lin immediately said loudly:
"It is leading the way for us, hurry up and follow them, we should be able to arrive at the Yellow River Station soon."
Hearing this, no one in the scientific expedition team dared to delay, and immediately controlled the Xuelong to follow the group of narwhals all the way.
To their surprise, after a group of narwhals led the way, the road was unimpeded.
At the moment, the air route that needs to be carefully navigated does not even need to look at the satellite map.
In less than two days, the Xuelong carried the scientific expedition team to the Yellow River Scientific Research Station in Svalbard.
Arriving here also means that this time the polar scientific research trip has officially kicked off.
And this day has come to March 2023, 3.
During this day, Yang Lin witnessed the transition from polar night to polar day, and saw with his own eyes the vast and boundless arctic ice field known as the land of the blue star extreme north.
Of course, the most important thing is that when he stepped on the ice field with his two Goudangousheng brothers, a huge snow-white monster also walked out from behind the snow hill not far away with leisurely steps.
At this moment, Yang Lin met the eyes of this giant beast from the snow field.
In an instant, a look of surprise filled his face.
"Damn it! Polar bear!"
It never occurred to him that he would meet a polar bear just after arriving at the North Pole.
Chapter 424 The Adopted Polar Bear Wangcai
Although Xihong Zoo now has hundreds of categories and nearly 2000 different types of animals.
But so far, the number of polar bears is still 0.
It's not that Yang Lin doesn't want it, but that there are too few channels to obtain polar bears in Longguo.
Even the Southern Yunnan Zoo, which has a large family and business, has only one head.
And if he wants to buy it, he can only buy it from the bear's animal dealer, or from the Inuit.
That's why he was so excited when he saw this wild polar bear.
Just as Yang Lin looked at the polar bear excitedly, Teacher Xiao Liang, who was wrapped tightly all over, jumped out at some point.
"Why, I've fallen in love with him, this end is not for turning, this end is our own."
"our own?"
Hearing Teacher Xiaoliang's words suddenly, a hint of doubt appeared on Yang Lin's face.
Before he could figure out what this sentence meant, a station worker in orange overalls came out of the Yellow River Station holding a large iron basin.
"Wangcai! Come over for dinner!"
As soon as the words fell, the polar bear that Yang Lin had stared at for a long time rushed towards the location of the Yellow River Station.
When it got close, it immediately put its big head into the iron basin, and then began to eat with big mouthfuls.
Seeing such a funny scene, Yang Lin was immediately stunned.
"Prosperity?"
It was really difficult for him to connect this very characteristic name of the Dragon Kingdom with the huge monster in front of him.
With a trace of curiosity, Yang Lin bravely put his head into the iron basin.
When he saw what was in the iron basin, he couldn't help but laugh.
Because the iron basin is clearly the leftovers left by some station staff.
There are rice, meat and bones, and green vegetable leaves.
There is basically no difference from the ones used to feed dogs in rural areas.
"Director Yang, welcome to come. I'm Li Qing, the deputy director of the Yellow River Station."
While Yang Lin was watching the polar bear Wangcai eating curiously, the staff member who brought out the iron basin before suddenly spoke.
Hearing his voice, Yang Lin immediately showed a hint of surprise.
