Chapter 44 Killer Whales vs. Sharks



The audience in the live broadcast room were also stunned. Under the shaking camera, a shark opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp teeth and biting the hull.

Judging from the swinging of the fish's body in the water, this shark was quite large. As it swung violently, the boat shook violently, and large waves splashed on the water surface.

"Can someone tell me this isn't true? Aren't there usually no sharks in shallow waters?"

"Brother, you used the word 'usually'. Sharks don't usually hang out in shallow waters, but if they get hungry, they might come to shallow waters to see if there's anything to eat."

[What should we do? Will Yiyi and the others be eaten by sharks? ]

Everyone was immersed in the joy of fishing one second ago, shouting that they wanted to go fishing in the sea, but the next second they were frightened by the sudden appearance of sharks.

But after all, they are separated by a screen, so no matter how great the visual impact is, it is not as terrifying as being there in person.

The cameraman was so frightened that he could no longer hold the camera steady. He subconsciously stepped back, but his foot accidentally tripped over the fish box behind him. He stumbled and fell, and the camera fell to the ground with a clang. The lens was fixed on a section of the boat and the half-open mouth of the shark, as if it would be swallowed at any time.

Some viewers in the live broadcast room had already covered their eyes, not daring to watch.

Even Uncle Yang, who has more than 20 years of experience in sailing, found it difficult to remain calm when faced with this situation - the shark looked as big as his boat.

In a panic, Uncle Yang grabbed a fishing net, walked over to the edge of the boat, and used a wooden pole to poke the shark's head, trying to drive it away. However, this level of attack had no effect on the shark. Instead, it bit the boat and swung its tail even more vigorously.

At this moment, the fishing boat is like a leaf floating on the sea, which may be overturned and torn into pieces at any time.

Seawater was already pouring into the boat, and the fish tanks on the boat were also loose and sliding from one end to the other.

Zong Chang had just taken seasickness medicine, which hadn't taken effect yet, and then he encountered such a violent collision and swing of the ship. His stomach was churning and rising and falling with the waves. He couldn't hold it in again and vomited.

Qiao Yiyi held him with difficulty with one hand, and grabbed a railing on the boat with the other hand, barely finding a fulcrum in the shaking and preventing herself from being shaken into the sea.

"Uncle, what should we do now?"

"Hide in the cabin quickly, I'll see if I can drive it away!"

Uncle Yang kept hitting the shark with a wooden pole, but he didn't dare to poke its vital parts for fear of angering it.

But the shark learned its lesson and began to dodge his attacks. It no longer insisted on biting their fishing boat, but instead kept changing angles to hit the fishing boat.

The impact was quite strong, and the boat couldn't hold out for long.

Qiao Yiyi had just helped Zong Chang into the cabin when the boat shook violently and both of them fell to the ground and slid out. If Qiao Yiyi hadn't grabbed a plank in time, they would have been thrown directly into the water.

“What should I do?”

The cameraman was completely at his wit's end. He was instinctively grabbing the camera he had picked up, his hands tightly grasping the board, his face pale.

But at this moment, Uncle Yang fell to the ground and the shark took the opportunity to pounce on him, bit one of his feet and tried to drag him into the water.

When Acai saw his master in danger, although he was very scared, he still bravely stepped forward and rushed towards the shark to scare it away. However, because he was too small, he was thrown into the water by the violently shaking boat.

"Acai!"

When Uncle Yang saw his beloved dog fall into the sea, he screamed heart-wrenchingly, regardless of the pain in his feet.

When the shark saw the prey fall into the water, it immediately opened its mouth and planned to deal with the small prey first.

Although the audience in the live broadcast room could only see incomplete images due to the shaking camera, they knew how dangerous the situation was by hearing the sounds.

[Help! Do the production crew eat shit? Why haven't any rescuers come yet?!]

[My dear Zongbao, please don’t get into any trouble. My heart can’t take it!]

God bless you, God bless you, I hope everyone is safe and sound!

Please, God, let them escape safely! If they are safe, I will never drink milk tea again!

[Me too! I'm willing to do my CET-5 exam a hundred times! I'll memorize all the CET-4 and CET-6 vocabulary words before I go to college!]

[I will never stay up late again. Staying up one minute past midnight shortens my lifespan by a year!]

[Wow... the above is unnecessary. ]

Everyone was worried about the people on the boat. Qiao Yiyi listened to Uncle Yang's heartbreaking cries, thought of Ah Cai's obedient behavior when she patted his head that morning, and looked at the rickety boat...

She gritted her teeth, struggled to get up from the boat, and in front of everyone, she jumped over the railing into the sea and swam towards Acai.

"Yiyi——"

Zong Chang felt so uncomfortable that he almost fainted, but when he saw Qiao Yiyi jump into the water, he still struggled to get up and tried to save her, but was grabbed by the cameraman.

"You can't go through there!"

"But what about her!"

Zong Chang was extremely annoyed. Why did he get seasick at this time? He watched everyone in danger and Qiao Yiyi fall into the water, but he could do nothing.

Everyone on the boat and the audience in the live broadcast room held their breath at this moment.

[Am I seeing things right? Qiao Yiyi just jumped down by herself? ]

[I didn't see it clearly, but the boat wasn't shaking anymore, so it probably wasn't thrown out.]

What was she doing down there? Saving the dog? Is she stupid?

[Can you please not be so aggressive in the previous part? A dog is a life too.]

How can that be compared to human life? When a dog dies, it's dead. When a person dies, they're gone.

[Although it's a bit cruel, I think the man above is right. Qiao Yiyi shouldn't have rescued it. It's just causing more trouble...]

[Yes, does she think she's a saint? Saving a person is fine, but the problem is that it's a dog. The most important thing is that she's risking her own life!]

[Can you please shut up? Just because you can't understand doesn't mean others can't empathize!]

Qiao Yiyi's fans were already worried about her, their hearts almost jumping out of their throats, and yet there were people who were still finding fault and making comments at this critical moment.

I hope that when you fall into the water and have no one to turn to, no one will save you. After all, jumping in to save you is a saintly thing, a foolish fool.

"Hey, little girl, why are you so vicious? Did I tell her not to save her? The key is that she can't even save herself, why would she save someone else, especially a dog!"

[Then there's no need to scold others like that. What if she really does save him?]

[Haha, as expected, these idiotic fans are also brain-dead. These days, some people are obsessed with idol-chasing. Do you think your idol is a deity or a savior? Do you really think that just because someone thanked her for her lucky escape from the mountains last time, she thinks she's omnipotent?]

Let me put this on notice. If Qiao Yiyi can escape the shark or save the dog today without the rescuers, I will call everyone here "Dad"!

On the turbulent sea, Qiao Yiyi fell into the water and did not emerge for a long time.

But strangely, the shark showed no signs of attacking and dived into the water, leaving only a terrifying fin visible.

The boat was no longer shaking. The cameraman climbed up from the boat and nervously held the camera to shoot at the water. Now everyone could finally see the sea surface clearly, but found that there was a strange calm on the sea surface.

Zong Chang no longer felt so uncomfortable. He hurriedly looked for Qiao Yiyi: "Yiyi, where are you? Are you okay?"

However, after a long time, what responded to him was a strange and soft whimpering sound.

The audience in the live broadcast room——

What's that sound?

[I don't know, it sounds familiar, but I just can't remember where it is...]

[The rolling sound seems a bit like this, weird.]

[Dolphin? It sounds a bit like a dolphin.]

"Ahhh, I hope it's a dolphin! I heard sharks are afraid of dolphins, and dolphins will save humans!"

[SRDS, it's true that sharks are afraid of dolphins, but they're afraid of a group of dolphins. If they encounter a single one, dolphins are useless.]

[What should I do? Is something really wrong with Sister Yiyi?]

[Wait, the shark seems to be gone! ]

【Really, it runs so fast.】

Under the camera, netizens saw that the shark that was just staring at them with arrogance and arrogance seemed to have encountered something terrible. It turned around and fled. Its fin swam quickly in the field of vision, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a small dot and disappeared from sight.

【what happened? 】

The audience in the live broadcast room were all extremely confused.

Zong Chang, the cameraman and Uncle Yang on the boat all looked incredulous.

Zong Chang was stunned for a moment, then called out "Qiao Yiyi" again after a long while.

This time no strange sound responded to him.

But just when he was extremely anxious, a splash of water suddenly appeared in front of him, and Qiao Yiyi jumped out of the sea, smiling and saying to him, "I'm fine!"

Not only was she fine, but Acai was also fine. He was held in her arms and breathing heavily.

Zong Chang excitedly wanted to go into the sea to pull her out, but Qiao Yiyi stopped him and nimbly climbed back onto the boat.

"That's great, that's great, I'm glad you're all okay!"

Uncle Yang was now filled with guilt. This was the first time he had encountered such a dangerous situation in all his years of sailing. Last night, his wife was worried about whether something might happen while he was taking his artists out to sea. He confidently said, "What could possibly happen? Even a small storm or waves would be easily handled with his years of experience."

I didn't expect that today we would not only encounter wind and waves, but also meet such a terrifying giant shark.

Uncle Yang felt extremely guilty and was very scared. He could hardly imagine what terrible things would have happened if the shark had not left.

In the distance, you can vaguely see the rescue boat heading towards this side.

Uncle Yang and Zong Chang asked Qiao Yiyi what happened, why the shark ran away, and what was that strange sound just now.

Qiao Yiyi looked away, looking at the still gray sky, and said vaguely: "Ah, well, I don't know. Maybe it's not my destiny to die?"

The two were skeptical.

In fact, when her mind was in a mess due to the shaking of the boat and she saw Acai being thrown into the sea and about to fall into the "tiger's mouth", Qiao Yiyi quickly opened the animal attribute system and directly searched for the ocean overlord, which allowed her to see the killer whale.

Killer whales, also known as orcas, belong to the dolphin family. They are huge in size and heavy in tonnage.

Most importantly, they have complex social behaviors and superb hunting skills, especially high IQ. They are the natural enemies of many animals in the ocean. Even great white sharks will stay away from them when they see them. They can be said to be the overlords of the sea.

The key is that such terrifying marine creatures are very friendly to humans, and are as fierce and cute as giant pandas.

At this moment, Qiao Yiyi didn't care how cute it was, as long as it could scare away the big shark.

She unlocked the killer whale attribute, and sure enough, when she saw the big shark in front of her retreat, she actually took the initiative to let go of Acai who had been bitten in its mouth.

At this time, she heard Zong Chang calling her anxiously, and in a hurry, she called back to him. But when she spoke, she found that the sound she made was a whimpering sound, which even surprised herself, so she immediately shut up.

But it was probably this voice that made the great shark certain that she was the killer whale, and he quickly fled in panic.

After escaping from the shark's mouth, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did she finally understand how useful this animal attribute system was.

Anyway, it was a close call.

When the rescuers and the program crew arrived, they found that they were a step too late. Except for Uncle Yang whose foot was bitten and needed treatment, everyone else was fine.

The audience in the live broadcast room didn’t know what words to use to describe their current mood. It felt like they were watching a fantasy blockbuster.

"Was there really a shark just now? Why does it feel so unreal?"

[I also feel like I'm dreaming, and I can't tell whether it's real or not.]

[I don't understand Qiao Yiyi's physique. It seems like she gets into trouble wherever she goes, but she always manages to escape danger safely.]

[What a mess! Isn't this just a lucky star constitution? If I could always escape danger, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams.]

[Am I the only one looking for my eldest son? The guy who just said that Qiao Yiyi should call our dad if she can escape, stop hiding! I've got your ID. Come out and call daddy now.]

[Oh yeah, I forgot I'm going to be a dad. jpg]

[Ah~ Today was such a magical day! Not only did I see such a wonderful movie, but I also had a baby painlessly. Son, come on, call me daddy! A girl's dad is also a dad, so I'm going to be a dad! Hehehe...]

"But, son, I have to teach you a lesson. You can't be so angry anymore. I can't bear to see your face get so swollen from being beaten like that."

The netizen who had just called Qiao Yiyi an idiot and set a flag was now hiding behind the computer and dared not say a word. He was about to change his ID and run away, but found that he had been stripped naked by netizens. In the end, he had no choice but to fulfill his promise to call her dad in the live broadcast room and publicly apologized to her for his insulting remarks to Qiao Yiyi.

Of course, Qiao Yiyi would never know this.

They were heading back by boat, but not long after the boat sailed, they felt as if something was following them.

Uncle Yang and the others turned around and saw only a black shadow, and were surprised.

After a while, the black shadow suddenly poked its head out, and it turned out to be a killer whale!

Oh my old swan!

Why did a killer whale come just as the giant shark left?

What on earth was going on in their shallow sea area today? Why did these two giant Buddhas appear?

The cameraman was just scared and got scared as a conditioned reflex when he saw the big guy.

Qiao Yiyi hurriedly explained to everyone that killer whales are very friendly to humans and will not hurt anyone - even though she herself didn't know where such a killer whale came from and kept following them.

Uncle Yang also told everyone not to be afraid and said they were very friendly.

Sure enough, the killer whale did not do anything scary except following them.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and even looked at the killer whale curiously.

It has a black and white body, shiny and smooth skin, and is very beautiful. It is not big and does not look very old.

Qiao Yiyi observed it based on the description on the system and said, "It's a baby girl."

Zong Chang was very surprised: "How do you know this?"

Qiao Yiyi said proudly, "Look at the dorsal fin. The tall and straight ones are boys, and the short and curved ones are girls."

"Oh." Zong Chang nodded in understanding, indicating that he had learned it.

The audience in the live broadcast room——

[I didn't expect Qiao Yiyi to know something about killer whales.]

Speaking of which, let me tell you, killer whales are incredibly cute! They're like the giant pandas of the ocean, and they're also incredibly adorable.

[That's right, and I heard that we humans look very much like them.]

【What's the meaning? 】

Let's put it this way: they might see us the same way we see cats and dogs. If you think it's cute, they might think you're cute too. They might even want to keep you as a pet.

【Hahaha, is this true?】

[Also, they are highly social, extremely organized, and disciplined! I highly recommend these adorable babies!]

The boat was still sailing on the sea and was about to reach the shore when everyone suddenly realized that the killer whale had not left.

"What's going on? Why is it following us?"

Although they knew it would not harm anyone, there was nothing they could do as the killer whale kept following them.

Uncle Yang and his crew stopped the boat and gestured to the killer whale, telling it to stop following them and go back quickly.

The killer whale seemed to understand and dived into the water.

Finally he's gone.

Uncle Yang started the engine again and headed towards the shore with the rescue boat.

A large group of people appeared on the beach at some point. Some of them came specially after seeing the live broadcast, and some villagers nearby heard that a star was recording a program here and encountered a shark, so they came to join in the fun.

Seeing Qiao Yiyi and the others return safely, everyone cheered enthusiastically.

The residents of the island were so welcoming that even Uncle Yang's wife and son came over. When they saw that Uncle Yang was fine, they were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears.

Qiao Yiyi and Zong Chang comforted Uncle Yang's family, greeted the enthusiastic islanders, and then everyone helped Uncle Yang unload the fish from the fishing boat.

Although the ship lost several boxes of fish in the violent shaking just now, fortunately the golden fish and eel are still there, so this trip out to sea is still worthwhile.

Uncle Yang showed the golden fish and eel to his wife. "Look, it's worth it, isn't it? This is worth a lot of money, enough for me to go out to sea for several times, so don't be angry."

Uncle Yang's wife had a gloomy face from beginning to end and didn't speak to him.

Qiao Yiyi and Zong Chang knew that she was acting like this because she was worried about Uncle Yang. They smiled secretly and sighed at the deep love between the couple.

At this moment, someone shouted, "Look, a big fish has swum ashore!"

"But it looks like it's stuck and won't move!"

When Qiao Yiyi and Zong Chang heard that a fish was stuck on the beach and couldn't move, they hurriedly looked in the direction everyone said, and saw the killer whale lying on the beach.

It turned out to be stranded!

When I was looking at the system information just now, I saw that one of the skills of killer whales is stranding, stranding themselves on the beach to deceive prey.

But this killer whale obviously did not want to prey on them, so there was only one possibility, that is, it did not want to leave at all and insisted on following them. It did not expect the sea here to be so shallow, and it accidentally stranded itself on the beach.

Netizens in the live broadcast room felt both sympathetic and amused towards the killer whale.

So it was trying to suck the bipeds, but ended up getting in trouble?

[Hug the baby, so pitiful, but really cute! ]

[Hurry up and save the child. He seems to be about to cry.]

Seeing this, Qiao Yiyi quickly put down the fish in her hand and ran quickly to the killer whale. Then she saw the killer whale raise its head with difficulty and whimper at her.

Qiao Yiyi didn't understand what was going on.

At this moment, 008 jumped out of her mind: [It must be because you just activated the system and called out, and it mistook you for one of its own kind.]

ah?

Qiao Yiyi was shocked.

Listening to the cry of the killer whale in front of her, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she actually heard a hint of grievance.

She turned on the killer whale attribute again. After the attribute took effect, she saw the whale in front of her flapping its wings again and whimpering even louder.

[Hahaha, look how aggrieved the baby is, QAQ]

【I feel sad and want to laugh.】

[I really want to touch it. Also, are all black and white animals this cute?]

[Its voice is so cute. Who would have thought such a big creature could have such a cute voice.]

Now Qiao Yiyi understood what it said. It really treated her as one of the same kind. She asked herself why she didn't bring it to play with her. She had discovered so many fun things and could play with the bipeds, but she didn't bring it with her.

Qiao Yiyi was at a loss for words. She couldn't make a sound at the moment because if she did, she would make the same sound as a killer whale.

But she had to find a way to make the killer whale understand that she was not of the same kind as it, so she could only switch back and forth between turning the attribute off and on.

After turning it off, she said, "Don't follow us, go home quickly, we are different."

After turning it on, she gestured to it, telling it to go home quickly and not wait for her.

Switching back and forth, the killer whale seemed to understand but not quite, a little bit, and a little bit not.

However, Qiao Yiyi didn't care whether the child understood it or not. The most urgent thing was to get it into the sea as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it stayed that long, the child would lose water and become exhausted, and his life would probably be in danger.

She negotiated with the onlookers, and everyone couldn't bear to see the killer whale stranded on the beach, so a group of people worked together to push the big guy into the sea.

Finally, the killer whale returned to the sea, regained its spirit, and was able to swim freely again.

It turned its head and looked at Qiao Yiyi, who seemed to still be struggling.

Qiao Yiyi waved at her and told it to go home early, otherwise its family would worry. After all, killer whales are marine creatures with a strong sense of family.

After staying there for a while, the little killer whale finally turned around and swam back to the depths of the sea reluctantly.

A thrilling and exciting sea voyage ended here, and everyone, including Qiao Yiyi, found it incredible.

[It really feels more exciting than a blockbuster movie. How many people can have such an experience? ]

I just took a killer whale class. They're so cute! If I had known earlier, I would have gone to Y City. Maybe I could have seen killer whales today.

【Let’s go to the oceanarium. 】

[Forget it. I used to think many small animals were cute, but now I feel sorry for them being locked up in zoos or oceanariums.]

[In fact, we should really reject animal performances. They should belong to nature.]

Before leaving, Uncle Yang paid Qiao Yiyi and the others their wages for today, and saw that each of them had one thousand Northern Lion coins in their hands - the total for the two of them was two thousand.

Qiao Yiyi asked doubtfully, "Uncle, did you miscalculate? Didn't you say you would raise our salary to 500? Isn't this... too much?"

Uncle Yang smiled and said, "Not much, not much. The first five hundred is the reward for helping me catch two precious fish, and the other five hundred is to thank you for saving Ah Cai."

He sighed, "Acai is not only our partner, but also like a family member to us."

Acai ran to Qiao Yiyi, circled around her, and wagged his tail, as if to thank her.

Qiao Yiyi was somewhat moved and said with a smile, "Then I will accept it without hesitation."

Uncle Yang also gave them a few big fish and asked them to take them back and cook them. He didn't know their real situation on the island, so to express his gratitude, he could only give them what he had.

He had originally planned to continue taking them out to sea to fish, but after what happened today, he wouldn't dare to do it no matter how much money the program crew gave him.

He also decided to go out to sea as little as possible in the future to avoid worrying his wife and son. He also told Qiao Yiyi that if she wanted to continue making this kind of money, she could contact one of his neighbors. He opened a seafood restaurant and also received the gold coins from the program team.

When Qiao Yiyi and Zong Chang heard this, they were overjoyed.

They were just worried that they would not be able to continue going fishing with the uncle to make money in the future, but now they have a new channel.

Lian Ru and the others were busy with their mission and were isolated from the outside world, so they didn't know what Qiao Yiyi and the others had experienced today. It was only after Qiao Yiyi and the others returned that the cameraman told them.

"Thank God, everything is fine. Everything is fine."

Lian Ru patted her chest, seeming to be really worried about the two children.

After spending a few days with them, she felt that these juniors were all very good, smart and sensible, and especially respectful to their seniors.

"Everyone must pay attention to safety in the future. We would rather not make so much money and take good care of ourselves."

Several young people nodded.

But today's harvest was very rich.

Excluding the advance payment, Qiao Yiyi and Zong Chang earned a total of 2,800 Beishi coins today.

The other people completed their respective tasks and earned a total of 1,000 North Lion Coins.

The total amount for everyone is 3,800 yuan.

In addition to the various things given by the enthusiastic villagers when she helped with the work, the farmer that Xiong Ying helped directly gave her several kilograms of pork.

They have added another delicious dish to their recipes.

However, since they had enough money, they decided to buy some new things.

Qu Xiaoqu suggested improving their living quarters and seeing if they could stop living in tents and buy a house.

Xiong Ying said that buying a house was too expensive, and it would take a long time for the program crew to hire someone to build it. They didn't want the people to be eliminated before the house was completed.

Qu Xiaoqu: "Then what are you talking about buying? We're here to build something, aren't we? We don't even have a place to live, so what's the point of talking about building something?"

Lian Ru felt that what Xiao Qu said made sense. Instead of buying a tent for each person, it would be better to spend more money to build a house. Not only could it improve living conditions, but it would also increase the prosperity value.

After spending these few days together, Lian Ru no longer wanted to be eliminated and found this kind of island construction life quite interesting.

More importantly, she didn't want to face her husband and the mess at home when she returned home.

After discussion, the group decided to ask a designer from the mall to build a house for them.

This designer is amazing. His team creates creative and unique houses, tailored to individual styles and requirements, using simple materials. Their service and construction fees are very low, totaling only 2,000 Beishi coins.

This is much more cost-effective than a house set that costs 5,000 Beishi coins, and the designer promised to build a small house for each person.

Everyone was very happy and quickly contacted the designer through the program team.

But the designers had one requirement, which was that they had to prepare the materials needed to build the house themselves.

"Ah? No wonder it's so cheap, it turns out we need to prepare the ingredients ourselves!"
