However, as the Dong Sheng gradually ventured deeper into the sea, the color of the sea began to change.
The water gradually turned from emerald green to deep blue, and the waves gradually grew larger.
In the ocean, the saying "even without wind, waves can be three feet high" is not an exaggeration.
You might not feel much of the power of the ocean while near the shore, but the deeper you go into the sea, the more you can feel its power.
Waves surged in one after another, crashing against the ship and splashing up white spray.
The ship rocked with the rise and fall of the waves, and the people on the deck swayed along with it.
This feeling of ups and downs has little impact on the old fishermen.
But Ye Chenliang is in a terrible situation.
He got seasick.
He leaned over the gunwale to feed the fish, vomiting so badly he was almost throwing up his bile.
Moreover, even after vomiting everything out of his stomach, he was still dry heaving.
His face was pale, and he was so weak that he could only lean against the ship's side, too weak to even stand up.
Feng Ye glanced at the crowd and, seeing that everyone else was trying to comfort them, decided to leave it alone for the time being.
Seasickness is a common occurrence, and it varies from person to person.
Some people are born without getting dizzy;
Some people get seasick whenever they are on a boat, whether at sea or on inland rivers.
Some people don't get dizzy normally, but only when they encounter strong winds and waves.
Most people who get seasick will get used to it after vomiting a few times and will stop feeling seasick.
However, some people will never be able to adapt.
It's unclear whether Ye Chenliang can overcome this; we'll have to wait and see how he performs in the next few days.
If all else fails, then we can only find an opportunity to go ashore and sell fish, so that he can get ashore first and avoid suffering like this forever.
Fortunately, everyone else was fine and in good spirits. They were even more excited by the vastness of the sea.
Feng Ye stood steadily at the bow of the ship, facing the sea breeze, gazing at the horizon where the sea and sky met.
Suddenly, someone nearby exclaimed, "What a huge manta ray!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Ye immediately turned to look.
Just then, I saw a manta ray flying in mid-air, like a giant black kite.
The manta ray spread its fins, somersaulted in mid-air, and then fell back into the sea.
However, before it could completely sink into the water, a huge black fish tail suddenly rose from the bottom of the water.
With a loud "smack," the large black tail lashed out at the manta ray.
Instantly, the manta ray was whipped into the air, like a kite with a broken string, somersaulting in mid-air and tracing an arc.
However, as soon as it fell from the sky, the huge tail reappeared.
It involuntarily took flight again.
This scene left everyone speechless, their mouths agape.
The manta ray was like a kite being manipulated, constantly flying back and forth in mid-air.
Each time it fell, it was accompanied by the lash of that huge black fish tail, and then it would fly up again.
Such a scene is extremely rare and breathtaking.
"Can you see what kind of fish is underwater?"
"If you can't see it, you can only see a big tail."
"Yes, only the tail is showing; you can't see the body or the head. How could anyone recognize it?"
"This fish is amazing! It actually flew a manta ray like a kite!"
"Yeah, I've never seen such a powerful fish before. Could it be a sea monster?"
"Don't talk nonsense. There's no such thing as a sea monster. It must be some kind of big fish that we don't recognize."
Everyone watched intently, discussing amongst themselves, but no one could come to a conclusion.
Even Ye Chenliang forgot to gag, staring wide-eyed at the scene with an incredulous expression.
Meanwhile, Ah-chan and his son in the wheelhouse simply turned off the throttle and let the boat slowly come to a stop, wanting to take a good look at this rare and spectacular sight.
"Orca, it must be an orca."
Feng Ye suddenly spoke up.
Although he could only see a tail, he was certain that it was an orca.
Only a street urchin like an orca would be so shameless as to find pleasure in teasing manta rays.
Moreover, they often give manta rays as gifts.
In addition, marine life such as sea turtles and seals are also severely affected.
"Ah, an orca?"
After Feng Ye's reminder, everyone thought about it carefully and immediately realized that it could very well be an orca.
"Hey, you know what, that big tail really does look like an orca's tail."
"Yes, it really does look alike."
"That's right, only a big guy like an orca can whip such a big manta ray into the air with one tail."
"Haha, that manta ray is really unlucky, getting whipped by the killer whale."
"Look, look, it's flying again..."
"This is treating manta rays like monkeys! I've only ever seen monkeys being performed, this is the first time I've ever seen manta rays being performed like this."
"Ahhh, and...and the manta ray flew up too."
Suddenly, muffled sounds rang out continuously on the sea ahead, and then more manta rays took flight one after another.
There were quite a few, as many as twenty or thirty.
Moreover, those manta rays were all very large, with the smallest being more than two meters long and more than one meter wide.
They seemed to be controlled by some mysterious force, tumbling and flying in mid-air.
The bizarre and spectacular scene almost made everyone's eyes pop out.
One after another, people exclaimed in amazement, constantly uttering words like "Holy crap," "Damn," and "Boom!" to express their shock.
These manta rays seem to be performing some kind of mysterious aerial dance, constantly flipping and spinning, drawing graceful arcs.
After a brief pause in the air, they plunged into the water one after another.
Then, twenty or thirty black tails rose from the water, like a group of black demons lurking at the bottom of the water, wantonly playing with the manta rays.
This time, it wasn't just the big black tail that was visible; several large black and white creatures appeared on the surface of the sea.
"It really is an orca!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
Although everyone had already guessed it, seeing the orcas actually appear still surprised and excited everyone.
"Damn, that orca is too fierce!"
"Yes, those manta rays must have weighed at least several hundred pounds each, and they were sent flying more than ten meters high with just one flick of their tails..."
"That's terrifying! If it lashed out at our boat with its tail, it would have blown the boat to pieces!"
Upon hearing this, the others didn't react much, but Ye Chenliang exclaimed in horror, "They won't actually come over and lash out at our boat with their tails, will they?"
"Ha ha……"
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Feng Ye couldn't help but chuckle, turning his head and saying with a smile, "Don't worry, although orcas are fierce, they generally don't attack humans."
On the contrary, they might even give gifts to humans.
Ye Chenliang looked puzzled: "A gift? What kind of gift?"
