Chapter 057 This is the treatment that Qilin deserves
The captain was frightened, remembering that Fatty Wang had drunk the wine offered to the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas shortly after he got on board.
Not only that, he also arrogantly shouted that the Dragon King should go to him to seek an explanation, and he thought that the Dragon King was angry and summoned these big fish to kill all the people on his boat.
The captain was so frightened that he fell to his knees, kowtowed and begged for forgiveness from the Dragon King.
The crew members behind him also knelt down, leaving Wuxie and Aning's men standing there, somewhat at a loss.
"Lord Sea Dragon King! Please calm down, Dragon King! Whoever offended you can be taken away, but please don't involve us on this boat... I have elderly parents and young children to take care of..."
"What are you mumbling about, you little old man? You are full of feudal superstitions. There is no such thing as a Sea Dragon King."
Fatty Wang still remembered that when he first got on the boat, he took a pot of wine from the old man, saying that it was wine for offering sacrifices to the Dragon King of the Sea. When he heard that the old man was going to put the blame on him, he didn't believe that there was a Dragon King at all, so he directly retorted.
"It's you! You must have drunk too much alcohol and said something rude that angered the Sea Dragon King!"
The captain stared at Fatty Wang with his eyes wide open, and it seemed that he wanted to push him into the water to appease the Dragon King and save all the people on the boat.
"You fart..."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel at this point, Wuxie quickly stepped in to act as a peacemaker and comfort them.
"Even if there is a Sea Dragon King, he wouldn't be so stingy. I think there must be something wrong with this sea, attracting large schools of fish, or maybe the boat brought something to attract fish."
Having been a college student for a few years, Wuxie tried to explain this phenomenon with science, but was rejected by the captain.
"Impossible! I've been sailing for almost forty years. I've seen all sorts of storms and waves, but I've never encountered anything like this! The things on the boat are exactly the same as before. It must be this fat guy..."
"Quiet!"
Aning shouted to stop the captain, saying that now was not the time for internal strife.
The group of killer whales were fine, just circling their boat, but the unknown giant whale was still approaching slowly.
This is a large fishing boat. This whale is larger than any known whale. Compared with the fishing boat, its body is estimated to be at least sixty or seventy meters long.
Such a big creature, let alone anything else, can just perform a whale flip next to them and smash their boat into the sea.
"Everyone calm down. There's no point in arguing now. Go turn on the fish repellent and see if you can get them to leave."
Aning gave the order with the idea of giving it a try, but she also knew that the repellent installed on the boat could only deal with small schools of fish and was of no use against such large fish.
Seeing a chance to escape the situation, the captain naturally didn't want to just wait to die, so he quickly did as she said.
Zhang Qiling also saw the big fish gathering on the sea. He had a subtle feeling in his heart, as if these schools of fish were coming for him, especially the huge whale.
Although he couldn't see its eyes, he couldn't ignore the feeling of being watched.
Zhang Qiling remembered what Zhang Moyu had told him before, that when the bloodline of the Zhang family reaches a certain level, they can bring out some of the characteristics of their own Qilin bloodline, and at a higher level they can even transform into the Qilin itself.
When the concentration of Qilin blood is high, it will split into three veins. The golden Qilin is the natural king of beasts, the black Qilin is the nemesis of evil spirits, and the jade Qilin is a symbol of auspiciousness.
As a descendant of the Golden Kylin, whose bloodline concentration reached 60%, Zhang Qiling originally didn't feel that he was anything special. He was not even as popular among cats and dogs as Hei Xiazi.
This kind of welcoming from a group of fish, a treatment comparable to that of the god of the sea, was really beyond his expectations.
Zhang Qiling guessed that this was because while he was drinking medicine to nourish his body, Zhang Moyu forced him to drink blood-awakening medicine several times.
That kind of medicine is one of the Zhang family's secret medicines passed down from generation to generation. It can awaken and improve the blood vessels. However, the efficacy will decrease with the number of times it is taken, and it cannot be improved indefinitely.
That kind of medicine was very precious and difficult to prepare. The reason why he was forced to drink it was because it was so unpalatable that even Zhang Qiling couldn't swallow it.
Zhang Moyu also said that this secret medicine had been proposed by the tribe members many times and included as one of the tribe's punishment items, which shows how unpalatable it is.
When he heard that this medicine could awaken the blood, Hei Xia Zi was also tempted to try it. He tried it hesitantly, but he couldn't help but spit it out after just taking a sip.
That day, Hei Xia Zi's sense of taste was poisoned and he didn't eat anything the whole day. He even vomited after eating his favorite fried rice with green peppers and shredded pork.
According to Hei Xia Zi, for several days after that, he felt that life had lost its joy and that everything in the world was like a passing cloud...
Zhang Qiling now suspects that it was the blood on the fishhook from the previous cut on his hand that attracted these big fish.
However, they did not smell the scent of prey. It is very likely that they thought he was in danger, and swam over from afar with a pilgrimage heart to protect him.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qiling, who had hardly received protection from others in the past years, suddenly felt a sense of fullness in his heart.
Different from Zhang Moyu's unconditional trust, support and care, this is a kind of warmth that is favored.
In order to verify his idea, Zhang Qiling quietly left the crowd and went to the stern alone.
Seeing that the group of killer whales began to notice him, Zhang Qiling wanted to get closer to the sea surface to try and see what these fish were trying to do.
He hooked a rope on the railing and jumped down. The moment he jumped, a killer whale that was larger than the other killer whales suddenly swung its tail, raised its head, opened its huge mouth slightly, and showed him two rows of white teeth.
Zhang Qiling, who was a little absent-minded, subconsciously kicked the killer whale on the forehead, and the huge force kicked the killer whale back into the sea.
The other killer whales that had gathered were startled and dispersed a little.
Zhang Qiling suddenly tightened his grip on the rope, stepped on the side of the boat, and continued to hang in the air and watch.
The killer whale that he kicked down swayed in the water for a while, then slowly floated up and approached him cautiously.
Zhang Qiling was also surprised that he could see such a cautious look on a fish's face.
The killer whale looked docile and didn't seem to want to bite him. He must have overreacted just now.
The killer whale put its head closer again without holding any grudge, looking like a loving and affectionate dog.
Seeing the big red spot in the middle of its head, which was caused by the kick he had just given, Zhang Qiling pursed his lips and felt a surge of guilt in his heart.
The rope on his right hand loosened a bit, allowing him to descend a little. With his free left hand, he touched the killer whale's forehead twice and apologized proactively, which was rare.
"sorry."
It was not known whether the whale understood what he said, but under Zhang Qiling's comfort, it whimpered happily twice and arched its back.
