Embrace the light

Walking and walking, how do you feel when two big black round objects suddenly leap up a dozen meters in front of you?

Although Heng quickly pulled Ian behind him to cover him, Ian was still taken aback by fright.

What is this?

Heng pulled Ian back away from the sea quickly, but before he could stand still, two chubby animals sprang out from the sea, but this time they appeared behind everyone.

Is this a sea fish, or a sea bird?For a while, everyone was a little uncertain.

Although they are big and chubby, the four animals are still very flexible when they move. Seeing Ian and the others recede away from the sea, the four of them also slid and followed, but they did not approach, but moved in parallel.

Eight big, black and round eyes stared at the nine people without blinking, until another one jumped up from the sea, and they all changed from lying to standing.They are all between 1.6m1.7 and [-]m[-] in height, and the last one to appear is the tallest.Their heads and necks are blue-black, their backs are jet black, and their abdomens are off-white with occasional yellow stripes.Their beaks are long and sharp, and their claws are wide and sharp.Generally speaking, these chubby and chubby animals are very similar to emperor penguins, which can be said to be their enlarged versions.

Originally, Ian thought that these penguins (let’s call them penguins) were round and cute, like gentlemen in black suits and white shirts, but when the five penguins spread their wings and surrounded everyone, and their long, pointed beaks made ear-piercing noises. When the sound of "嘎—嘎——" sounded, the original cuteness instantly turned ferocious and ferocious.

What surprised everyone the most was their wings, which were integrated with the black feathers on their backs. When they were not opened, they didn't feel wide. Now when they were stretched out, they found that the wingspan was nearly three meters long.The originally smooth feathers were completely blown up, and the exposed toes became hideous.

"Is this going to eat us like worms?"

The nine people had already prepared their weapons when these ferocious penguins appeared. Seeing them fluttering their wings and screaming piercingly, Yang Na asked a little tremblingly.

Heng immediately thought of the unknown round eggs that Captain Zhou brought back last night, "Maybe it was discovered that we stole their eggs."

"Theirs?" said Alva. "They are so big and they lay such small eggs?"

Xiao Ting said, "I'm afraid you haven't seen a panda cub?"

Zhang Minglin asked: "Are you going to fight? Two people against one, should they be able to fight?"

Except for the exposed eyes, the rest of the people were covered by coats, hats, scarves, etc. But looking at the sharp claws and sharp beaks of these ferocious penguins, the cloth might not be able to withstand them.

But these penguins just kept making threatening sounds around them, flapped their wide wings occasionally, and did not attack directly.

Probably because they have never seen them as a species and dare not attack easily?Or did they not intend to have a dispute and just want to get their eggs back?

But what if the eggs are returned to them and they continue to attack?

While the nine hesitated, the penguins stretched their wings and approached them a few steps to narrow the encirclement.

Just as they were in a stalemate, there was a sudden "chirp~chirp~" in the sound of "嘎——嘎——" and the sound was clear and loud, making the five ferocious penguins stunned in place.

The postures of the five penguins are still in a ferocious state, but their expressions are full of surprise and surprise.

"嘎~嘎~" The five penguins' calls became soft and cheerful, and even a hint of kindness could be heard.

The source of the sound was in Xiao Ting's backpack. Since Xiao Ting was in her menstrual period, the hottest egg last night was assigned to her to warm up.Xiao Ting's backpack was carried in front of her body, and the round egg was in her abdomen.Xiao Ting was afraid that the egg would be cold, so she wrapped a plush scarf around the egg.

Xiao Ting opened the backpack, and a small round black gray head poked out immediately, the sound of "Chirp ~ Chirp~" became clearer and louder. of birth.

A penguin in front of the nine people immediately shook its head on the spot and croaked loudly in response. The little thing saw his relatives struggling to get out of the backpack with their fluffy gray short wings.

The big penguin also stepped forward immediately. It retracted its wide wings and let them melt back into a part of its round body. Ignoring the weapons lying in front of everyone, it walked straight towards the little penguin.

This sudden incident left everyone stunned.Seeing the big penguin getting closer, Ian said to Xiao Ting, "Put the little penguin on the ground."

If you come into close contact with this ferocious penguin, if the other party suddenly launches a sneak attack, it will definitely cause damage.

Xiao Ting quickly took the little penguin out gently, and then put it on the snow. The little penguin immediately staggered towards the big penguin with a "Jiujiu~".

The big and small penguins were able to reunite, touching each other's cheeks and getting close to each other.

Xu Shi was infected by this warm scene, and two little penguins came out of their shells, and the two little penguins also "tweet~tweet~tweet~" and "tweet~tweet~tweet~" in the backpacks of Yang Na and Shouyou. ~" called out.

Two big penguins walked towards the two of them excitedly, and responded with "qua~qua~" and "quack~qua~".

This time the two were very conscious, and immediately took out the newly hatched plush little penguin and put it on the snow in front of them. The big penguin and the little penguin rubbed each other's cheeks very intimately.

There are still two eggs left that haven't hatched, one is in Yi'an's bag, and the other is in Zhang Minglin's bag.

Ian opened his backpack and looked down. The little guy had hatched, but it was very quiet, staying in Ian's backpack silently. He stood up and stretched his head over as if wanting to rub Ian's cheek.

It is a very well-behaved and quiet little penguin.

"Ga~ga~"

Seeing the little baby poking out, a big penguin also walked towards Ian while calling.Ian took out the fleshy gray-black little penguin, and wanted to kiss its fluffy head, but suddenly remembered that the documentary said that humans should not leave odors on wild animals, as this would affect the recognition of others of the same kind. So I gave up.

This seems to be a little penguin afraid of the cold?When Ian put it on the snow, it even brazenly propped up its two little feet, refusing to touch the icy snow.

Ian was in a dilemma, when he heard the big penguin walking in front of him make two more "quack - quack -" sounds. This voice is different from the full-hearted kindness just now. It sounds a little harsh, like a reprimand .

This time the little penguin honestly put his feet on the snow, but dissatisfied with the big penguin "tweet ~ chirp ~", but was severely pecked twice on the head by the big penguin, the little penguin suddenly became more honest up.

When the big penguin was able to reunite with the little penguin, everyone spontaneously retreated a distance silently.

Now the four groups of parents and children have been reunited, and there is still one egg that shows no signs of activation.

Zhang Minglin was going to return the egg directly to the tallest, chubby big penguin, but when the big penguin saw that he was about to put the egg on the snow, he let out a very fierce "crack!".

Zhang Minglin and the big penguin looked at each other, Yang Na poked him, "I think it means not to let you take out the eggs."

Captain Zhou nodded, "They are very smart. Seeing that the other four little guys were all hatched in our backpacks, they probably know that the temperature of our backpacks is suitable for their eggs to hatch, so I want you to put the big white eggs Keep carrying it in your backpack."

Zhang Minglin put the big white egg back into his backpack tentatively, and stared at the big penguin for a few more times, but this time it didn't make a sound.

To everyone's surprise, the other four big penguins interacted with their children intimately for a while, and after feeding them a few bites, they began to move the little penguins towards the crowd with their sharp beaks.

Ian asked Heng: "They want the little penguins to come back to us?"

Heng shook his head, "I probably want you to put all the little penguins back in your backpack."

As Heng said, each of the four little penguins huddled their bodies tightly and looked very afraid of the cold. They shivered and walked towards the crowd, probably wanting to return to their warm backpacks.

Although there were nine of them, all four little penguins found the person carrying the backpack that hatched them without fail.

Ian tentatively hugged the little penguin, staring at his big penguin without threatening or neighing. Seeing that Ian put the little penguin in his backpack, it "quack ~ quack ~" a few times, then suddenly went straight to the sea went and jumped into the ocean.

Along with this big penguin, there was another penguin, and now there are only three big penguins left on the shore.

Yang Na asked: "Is this giving the little ones to us?"

Xiao Ting replied: "How is it possible? Didn't you see that there are still three left behind to watch?"

Zhang Minglin said, "Should we go now? If there are only three of them, it won't be a problem to fight, right?"

Captain Zhou shook his head, "They don't seem to be malicious, just wait and see."

The three penguins formed a triangle and surrounded the nine people, but their eyes were calm, their expressions were indifferent, and their wings retracted naturally.

Standing still is tiring. Since they were not in a hurry to leave, everyone simply put the suitcase down and sat on it.

Ian put the backpack on his lap and looked into it. The little guy was sleeping very peacefully.Sensing that Ian was watching it, the little guy opened his eyes, tilted his head and looked at Ian for a few seconds, then closed his eyelids again.

"Heng, this little guy is so cute."

Heng glanced into the backpack. He was cute when he was a child, but he is fierce when he grows up.

After leaving a breathable seam in the backpack, Ian no longer disturbed the little penguin to rest.He turned to look at the three big penguins not far in front of him. These three penguins all held their heads high and their chests upright, their big black eyes blended with their black feathers. , it is easy for people to regard them as a statue.

They didn't keep them waiting for too long, two black shadows rushed up from the sea "swipe-swipe--" and this time they brought back two big fish, bigger than the biggest one Heng caught before double.

The big fish was thrown in front of Ian and the others. The gray-blue big fish was alive and vigorous, bouncing its body on the snow.

Ian looked at the fish, at the big penguins returning from fishing, and at Heng.

"Should we feed the little penguin?"

Heng shook his head, interracial communication is not his strong point.

Captain Zhou also scratched his head, "Don't treat us as food, and give us food?"

Alva asked tremblingly: "You don't think we are too thin, so you want to fatten us up before eating?"

Yang Na said: "I was careless, I should have downloaded a bird language recognition software."

"Ga~ga—"

Seeing a few people sitting still, the big penguin swiped the two big fish towards their feet with its beak.

"Excuse me, are these two fish for us to eat?" Ian planned to communicate directly, and he gestured for eating with his hands while talking.

The big penguin rarely turned ferocious into cute, and tilted its head in doubt to look at Ian who was gesticulating.

Alva stepped forward and packed both fish in his suitcase.

"It doesn't matter, it looks like it's for us, so accept it as a respect."

Seeing that Alva took away two big fish, the biggest penguin made a long "quack" sound, as if blowing a horn.It took the lead and walked behind everyone, while the other four stood in a row and flapped their wings. Although it was gentle, it also clearly showed a strong meaning.

The nine people had no choice but to stand up, put their backpacks back on their backs, pack their suitcases, and follow the lead penguin back and forth.

"Is this asking us to follow them first?"

"You don't really want to raise us like two-legged sheep, do you?"

Heng held Ian's hand and led the way forward.

"The two fish just now should be bribing us."

Ian asked, "Why?"

Heng said: "I guess they want us to send the little penguins and eggs back to them. We are far away from their habitat now, and they can't bring the little penguins back to the cave quickly. They have been exposed to cold air for a long time. , maybe these little guys will die soon, so these big fat guys want to use us and backpacks to bring the little guys back."

Yang Na asked: "Then why didn't it just grab our bag and carry it back?"

Xiao Ting thought for a while and said: "If they fight with us, they will inevitably suffer casualties, especially the cubs. From the very beginning, they did not attack with brute force as soon as they came up, but threatened and curry favor with each other. The big guy who looks stupid is actually very smart."

I thought they would walk slowly and sway, but in fact, they were faster than humans, and they may be eager to send their cubs back to the nest.When passing through some rough and rough roads, they did not wrestle and walked very steadily.

Ian asked: "Then do we really want to follow them back? Will their cubs attack us after they are housed?"

Heng said: "Probably not, but it is necessary to take precautions and be prepared."

Alva was puzzled: "So what is the reason for following these big penguins now? We can put their cubs aside and take the opportunity to escape. They will never leave their cubs alone. Come chase us all the time?"

The thin friend said: "Because you accepted their funds."

Alva choked, "Then leave it to them."

However, having said that, Alva did not open the suitcase. After all, two fish are so big that they can eat for several days.

Ian said: "Although it is for survival, it is true that we took their eggs first. And now these eggs have hatched, and their relatives have come to the door again, and they have given us two without harming us." Big fish, we should return the cubs due to reason and reason.”

Alva curled his lips and muttered, "You are the only good person."

When it was dusk, the little penguins called out in unison, "Chirp~Chew~".Guessing that they were hungry, the four carried the little ones out of their backpacks and put them on the snow again.

Staggering towards their relatives, the cubs once again obtained a full stomach from the mouths of their relatives.

Everyone simply started to eat dinner, and today's dinner is still the fish fillet that was shared yesterday.

"Do you want to dispose of the fish you got today?" After Alva finished eating two pieces of fish, he opened the suitcase and saw that the big fresh fish was motionless.

Yang Na said, "I don't know if these big penguins are willing to wait for us."

"Whatever it is, if you don't take advantage of the fresh slaughter, you may not be able to cut a knife tomorrow."

Xiao Ting nodded, asked Heng for plastic sheets, and went to the side with Alva to clean the big fish.

The little penguins finished their dinner and staggered towards their respective backpack owners.Ian picked up the little guy who was swaying towards him and put it into his warm backpack, then went to see Xiao Ting and Alva who were cleaning the big fish in the snow pit.

The big penguins didn't urge them, they just stood there and watched the nine of them closely.
