The shark escaped, and Lu Yao was surrounded by killer whales.
Dozens of killer whales, which were larger than the man-eating shark, swam around Lu Yao, making "beep, beep," "tsk, tsk," and "click, click" sounds.
They seemed to be identifying Lu Yao and judging her.
Lu Yao held her breath and tried not to show panic.
The first time she saw the legendary killer whales, the scene was more shocking than she had imagined.
Killer whales, a highly intelligent deep-sea large mammal with a complex social system, often live in groups, with as few as two or three together and as many as fifty.
The group of killer whales that Lu Yao encountered was at least more than twenty.
They are slender and beautiful, with a large area of black skin on their backs and sides, a large area of white on their abdomens, and a small area of white skin with a point behind their dorsal fins.
The color blocks are very neatly divided, and from a distance they look like they are wearing a small black and white vest.
There is a small oval white spot below their eyes, which at first glance may be mistaken for an eye, and looks very cute. But this is the real overlord of the sea that makes even the great white shark flee.
They are smart, good at hunting, know how to unite and cooperate, are highly adaptable, and have a very complex language system and social behavior.
Lu Yao noticed that behind the group of adult killer whales, there were two female killer whales lined up together, holding a killer whale cub, slowly diving down from above, and seemed to have just taken a breath. The
killer whale cub was a little bit abnormal, making a weak "whimper" sound, and its dorsal fin and tail seemed to be entangled by something.
Lu Yao tried to swim, but the killer whales were not alert, just surrounded her and "whimpered", without attacking. It
is rare to see large predators like killer whales nearby, and sharks are rarely seen in places where killer whales live.
Because killer whales hunt sharks.
They are larger than sharks, know the fatal weaknesses of sharks, and are good at cooperation, so they can effectively complete the hunt.
Thinking of the man-eating shark that just appeared, this group of killer whales probably just happened to pass by this sea area.
Lu Yao typed into the system: "Do you know why they came here?"
System: [...There is an injured cub in the group, maybe they are trying to save it? ]
Lu Yao also had such a guess, but he didn't know how the killer whales were going to treat the cub.
After a while, the system said again: [It's too late, the cub is dying. ]
Lu Yao tried to approach the injured cub, and the killer whales did not stop him. The surroundings were filled with the sound of their communication.
The orca cub's flippers and tail were entangled in the fishing net, and there was a hole on its abdomen that was wider than her palm, and blood was gushing out.
I don't know how far they swam from, but the cub's condition was indeed not good.
Lu Yao carefully reached out and tried to touch the female orca that was protecting the cub. When she didn't feel any intention of attacking, she slowly went to the side, condensed a silver magic circle in her palm, and used light magic to treat the wound of the orca cub.
The wound, which was larger than a fist, healed at a speed visible to the naked eye under the healing magic, and the orca cub's cry gradually became louder.
"Bing-bing-bing--"
"Bing-bing-bing-- " " Tsk-tsk--
" "Tsk-tsk--" The whole school of killer whales was like an extremely active group of voices, making a lot of noise. The wounds had healed, but the bodies of the cubs were still tightly bound by the fishing nets, unable to move. Fishing nets and plastics often threaten the lives of marine organisms. Once wrapped up, the flippers and tails cannot move, and even large marine organisms like whales may suffocate to death. Lu Yao had no tools with him, so he leaned over and swam towards the garbage mountain. Picking through a pile of garbage, he found a pair of rusty scissors and a piece of broken glass, which he used to cut open the fishing nets tied to the killer whale cubs. The orca cub regained its freedom and swam happily in the water for two circles. It turned back and held Lu Yao with its head, pushing her forward, and whimpering. Lu Yao remembered the scenes of orcas hunting in documentaries. Sometimes they would hit their prey with their heads, knock it unconscious, and then bite it to death. She was very panicked, fearing that she would be knocked away in the next second. There is no record of wild orca whales injuring people in existing data, but people do not fully understand this creature. Orca has a nickname called "Giant Panda of the Sea". The color of its body is very similar to that of the national treasure, and even its temperament is somewhat similar. That is, it is very naughty and loves to play. Lu Yao was very scared, because their play could be fatal to humans. She wanted to get away from the baby killer whales, but her hands and feet were stiff, and she couldn't swim or hide. At this time, the entire school of killer whales moved, protecting the baby killer whales and Lu Yao in the middle, and moving forward together. The speed of the killer whales was beyond imagination, and Lu Yao was pushed forward by the baby killer whales. When a school of self-locking fish passed by in the middle, other deep-sea fish would actively avoid it, but the killer whales didn't care about that and directly crashed through the middle. Lu Yao: "... The street in the sea is worthy of its reputation." The dense school of self-locking fish was knocked away, as if suddenly awakened, turned over in a daze, and began to swim desperately. Lu Yao reached out and held a panicked jellyfish, and a panicked sea turtle lay on his head. When she swam to the vicinity of the Furry Shop, she turned around and touched the orca cub's head, then slowly swam towards the door. The orca cub made a weak "whimper" sound, then swam over and gently nudged her with its head. Lu Yao followed its force, swam to the door of the store, opened the door, turned around and waved at it, then turned and went into the store. She was really out of strength, and it was too cold. When she returned to the store, she collapsed directly to the ground. The jellyfish and sea turtles that were brought back to the store turned into humans, lying on the white sand beach and gasping for breath. The group of orcas outside the store did not leave immediately. They formed a circle, observing the Furry Shop curiously. “Hmmmm—” “Crack, crack—” “Tsk, tsk, tsk—” “Hmm—” The entire sea was filled with the sounds of their discussion.
The customers in the furry shop were like fish on a plate, being commented on by killer whales, trembling and afraid to move.
They stayed in this sea area for a long time, and only swam slowly to the deeper sea after a few hours.
Unnoticed, a killer whale that sank to the deepest part of the self-enclosed school of fish slowly opened its eyes, and its red pupils were not obvious in the deep sea.
He turned over, swam away from the self-enclosed school of fish, and quietly joined the departing school of killer whales.
When the killer whales finally left, the customers in the furry shop breathed a sigh of relief, immediately lowered their heads and took a deep breath of the kittens in their arms to relieve their stress and tension, and some left with lingering fear.
The kittens were wearing special work badges and saw the killer whales outside the membrane as fish of normal size, without showing any panic.
The autistic fish awakened by the killer whales hid in the crevices of the nearby coral reefs and watched, and now they were approaching the furry shop.
A 2-centimeter-long pygmy seahorse swam into the shop and turned into a 1.8-meter-tall young man. He immediately talked to someone to find out what was going on.
An angelfish turned into a lady in pajamas, sitting in the corner and crying silently.
The adhesive tape walked over slowly and approached to lick her hand.
Its eyebrows were not noticeably wrinkled, and its eyes were round, looking innocent, not knowing that the soft thorns on its tongue would hurt people.
Li Yunli put away her hand, feeling even more aggrieved.
Seeing the kitten reminded her of her several-month-old baby. The stinging pain of being licked on the back of her hand reminded her of the pain of being bitten by the baby's gums while feeding.
She placed her hands horizontally on her knees and sobbed in a suppressed manner.
Dai Gaip was at a loss and did not dare to lick the guest's hand again. She squatted in front of her obediently. Grandma called coquettishly: "Meow~"
Li Yunli covered her mouth, stood up suddenly, avoided everyone's gaze, walked in the direction of the "restroom" sign, opened the door and hid in.
She sat on the toilet, covered her mouth with both hands tightly, not wanting to make any sound, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, and she collapsed and couldn't control herself. She
came to this place inexplicably, and she didn't know whether it was a dream or reality.
If it was a dream, she hoped to stay in the dream longer.
She still needed some time to sort out her emotions.
A chubby calico cat squeezed into the bathroom through the crack of the door and meowed outside the door, very persistently.
Li Yunli sat for a while, then opened the door with red eyes.
The big cat, as fat as a puffed sea cucumber, squatted at the door, its tail under its paws, looking at her with bright eyes, "Meow!"
She couldn't stand kittens, but she felt inexplicably relaxed when she saw the big fat cat. She washed her face, squatted down and stroked it.
The cat didn't lick her, but when she wanted to touch its head, it took the initiative to come over and rub against her palm, which gave her an inexplicable feeling of indulgence.
Li Yunli exhaled and felt a little better. She moved closer to Erxin, buried her face in its thick back hair, and rubbed it hard like it rubbed against her.
"Meow~" Erxin called out, stood up and walked towards the door. After taking two steps, she found that Li Yunli didn't follow her, so she came back and called her, "Meow~" but
she still didn't move. Erxin turned around and approached, rubbing her calves, calling softly with a purring sound.
Li Yunli finally couldn't hold it anymore, so she bent down and picked up Erxin, holding it and walked out of the bathroom.
She stayed in the bathroom for quite a long time, and there were only a few customers left in the store.
Li Yunli felt more relaxed, holding Erxin and sitting next to one of the low tables, unwilling to let go of it.
Erxin was like a warm mood regulator, holding it, she felt very relaxed.
Lu Yao brought a cup of lemon tea and a plate of crisp plums and said hello: "Hello. We have fresh seafood in the store, you can order it."
Li Yunli shook her head, "No, the cat is enough."
She liked this big fat cat. Lu
Yao nodded, "Do you know how you got here?"
A few scattered pictures flashed through Li Yunli's mind, and finally she just shook her head and whispered: "I feel like I'm dreaming."
Lu Yao: "Maybe it's not a dream. I feel like this is a sea of rest. People who are tired will come here and rest for a short time."
Li Yunli was silent with two hearts, and then suddenly opened up at a certain moment and talked a lot with Lu Yao.
About the baby, about the family, about the husband.
All the moments of collapse when a person has to take care of children and handle household chores.
As she spoke, she couldn't help crying again.
At that time, there were no other customers in the store, and Lu Yao made a bowl of fish soup for her.
She didn't dare to eat raw food for fear of affecting the baby.
After Li Yunli finished the soup, she lay on the floor holding Erxin and fell asleep with red eyes.
Lu Yao thought she would not leave the sea of garbage soon, but the sleeping Li Yunli slowly turned into an angelfish, wrapped in bubbles, and floated out of the furry shop.
When cleaning up the plates, Lu Yao found a pair of platinum diamond earrings pressed under the plates.
Li Yunli was wearing these earrings on her ears when she came.
She was wearing pajamas and probably had no money on her.
Lu Yao asked the system to estimate the price, and the price was about 4,000 yuan.
She wrote a note and put the earring away. She wrote
her name on the box and put it together with Qin Meng's bracelet.
