Fu Wan rested for several minutes, but the sperm whale didn't move; it just stared at Fu Wan.
Fu Wan felt her scalp tingling from its gaze until she followed the little sperm whale's eyes and realized that she had been deluding herself.
People don't even see her as a person!
People were only interested in the half-dead fish in her hand!
Fu Wan suddenly realized, "If you had just said you wanted fish, why did you go through all that trouble to run around? It's just a sea bass!"
She could send ten sperm whales at the little sperm whale, let alone one!
Fu Wan quickly took the sea bass off the bamboo arrow and waved it at the baby sperm whale.
The baby sperm whale seemed to understand, and the next second it opened its big mouth.
Fu Wan resignedly threw the sea bass into its mouth. The creature's mouth was so big that when the sea bass was thrown in, it was like a small stone falling into an abyss, without making a sound.
The baby sperm whale's mouth remained open for a long time without closing, which puzzled Fu Wan, so she boldly touched its lower jaw.
The sperm whale then shut its mouth, and the next second it looked at the spotted rat in Fu Wan's hand.
Fu Wan saw that he was still looking at the fish in her hand, and felt a pang of sorrow in her heart.
Seriously, bro? You didn't leave me a single one?
Those are rat spots! How could she bear to part with them?
Seeing that Fu Wan did not move, the baby sperm whale swam forward and gently nudged Fu Wan's hand with its head.
Then, in the next second, it retreated to its previous position and opened its big mouth again.
Silence speaks louder than words. If this little guy could talk, wouldn't he be urging me to hurry up and feed him?
Fu Wan could only suppress her heartache and resignedly remove the rat-spot from the bamboo arrowhead and throw it into the sperm whale's mouth.
Eat up, Daddy!
Who can eat like you? You swallowed such a big spotted rat in one gulp!
Fu Wan was truly on the verge of tears. What could she do if she didn't hand over this rat-spotted creature? She couldn't outrun it, and she couldn't fight it either.
I can only pray that after this sperm whale leaves, I'll be lucky enough to encounter another such large spotted mouse whale.
The grouper's weight was different from that of a sea bass. As soon as Fu Wan threw the grouper into its mouth, the sperm whale immediately closed its big mouth.
Fu Wan didn't even see how the guy swallowed, so in short, this rat-like creature was out of her reach.
Just pretend you never encountered it!
Fu Wan could only console herself with this thought before preparing to swim elsewhere to find her moonfish.
But who would have thought that the little sperm whale would also follow beside her? Because this guy swam a little faster than Fu Wan, it would stop and wait for Fu Wan if it swam ahead of her. If Fu Wan didn't keep up, it would wag its tail and turn around to see why Fu Wan hadn't caught up.
This left Fu Wan speechless.
No, bro, you're already enjoying your meal, why are you still following me?
Sperm whales are said to be social animals, so where are the parents of this baby sperm whale?
This baby sperm whale is already frighteningly big; if it were to encounter its parents, Fu Wan couldn't even imagine how big they would be.
That oppressive feeling was so strong that it could obscure not only the moonfish, but even the moon itself!
But the whale in front of her seemed to have taken a liking to her, so Fu Wan could only go up and touch its big head and make gestures to it.
When Fu Wan touched the whale's head, she discovered that there was a dense patch of barnacles growing around the other eye of the creature.
Upon closer inspection, not only around its eyes, but also on the other side of the baby sperm whale's body, there was a dense patch of barnacles!
Ugh, the moment Fu Wan saw that huge patch of barnacles, her trypophobia kicked in; she could feel the hairs on her hands standing on end even through her gloves.
That must hurt so much!
Barnacles, which the people of Fujia Village commonly call "horse teeth," are small animals that, as the name suggests, resemble horse teeth and like to parasitize whales or sea turtles.
They feed on plankton in the water, and they mostly prefer to parasitize whales and sea turtles because these animals don't swim very fast, making it easier for them to eat plankton everywhere.
However, the turtles and whales that are parasitized suffer. Barnacles not only cause great pain to turtles and whales, but also affect their swimming speed.
Especially for weaker sperm whales like juveniles, whose main food consists of various squid and even small sharks.
If a sperm whale encounters a highly aggressive giant squid, the barnacles on its body can slow down its hunting speed, which is undoubtedly a fatal weakness when fighting its natural enemies.
And since it was growing right next to her eye, Fu Wan didn't even think about how this big guy had just eaten her fish. She used her gloved hands to pick off several barnacles.
At first, the baby sperm whale was a little scared, but after Fu Wan removed several barnacles from its eyes, it suddenly felt that its field of vision had become much wider.
The pain around my eyes has subsided!
These two-legged creatures are actually quite good; this is something even their mothers couldn't do!
So the little sperm whale simply brought the side with barnacles to Fu Wan's face and let her clean it for him.
Fu Wan was at her wits' end with it. This little guy was really smart, and Fu Wan could even see a look of enjoyment on its face.
Fine, I've already started picking at it. It's still so small, its life has just begun. If I let it continue like this, Fu Wan feels that she won't be able to sleep well at night, and she'll dream about picking at it.
It was impractical to pick the barnacles off by hand, but fortunately, Fu Wan had a small knife strapped to her leg. She pulled out the knife and carefully used the back of the blade to scrape along the base of the barnacles, trying not to damage the sperm whale's skin.
This method of shoveling was indeed very fast. In no time, Fu Wan had cleaned the barnacles off the little sperm whale, leaving only some scars from the barnacle infestation.
Fu Wan touched the baby sperm whale's back; the smooth whale back was still warm.
Little guy, you'd better swim faster next time, or you'll get another chance to be parasitized by those pesky barnacles!
Fu Wan thought to herself, "Now that this job is done, I can finally leave, right?" But then the little sperm whale rubbed its head against Fu Wan's hand and let out a long cry.
It wasn't quiet at all; Fu Wan felt like her ears were going to go deaf. Only when the sperm whale stopped making noise did Fu Wan lower her hand.
But then she immediately saw a dark shadow approaching from a distance, that familiar big head, and a body that seemed to stretch endlessly. My God, it was an adult sperm whale!
This little sperm whale is such a troublemaker; it actually called its parents!
Fu Wan felt her legs go weak. This little guy was so ungrateful! She fed it fish and then let it pick barnacles. How could it call its parents? This was repaying kindness with enmity!
