But out of trust in their teacher, Class 9 immediately took action the moment Ren Yan finished speaking.
Turn when it is time to turn and lower the sails when it is time to lower the sails.
Soon, Class 9 completed a beautiful turn and gradually distanced itself from the "island" ahead.
Only at this point did Ren Yan feel slightly relieved.
With a buffer of more than 10,000 meters, even if the thing in front of them is a whale of 50 or 60 tons, they are temporarily safe.
All that remains is to change course to avoid the whale carcass that may explode at any time, and at the same time be prepared for the impact of the waves that will come after the whale carcass explodes.
After the ship completed the turn, the people in Class 9 asked their teacher through the intercom:
"Teacher Ren, what on earth is that thing in front of you that can scare you like this?"
"Whale corpse..." Ren Yan silently uttered two words.
The intercom was instantly filled with gasps and voices of relief:
"Hiss...Luckily we ran fast, otherwise we would be done for!?"
"Hey who! Get out there in front of me! Who said there's a deserted island ahead?"
"You're such a grown-up, but you can't even tell the difference between a deserted island and a whale carcass?"
Hearing this, Li Qi and Niu Pu's faces immediately turned awkward: "That...you also know..."
"It was very bumpy at sea, and the distance was not very close. The thing was black..."
"so..."
"So, this is why you almost sent our entire class away?!"
"Damn it, if I don't teach you a lesson today, I won't be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart~"
After that, Li Qi and Niu Pu chose to remain silent very rationally.
You can't excuse yourself at this time.
This thing, the more you excuse it, the more trouble you will have...
Maybe I'll really get beaten up.
After everyone condemned Li Qi and Niu Pu for a while, they changed the topic and began to pay attention to the whale carcass not far away.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Ren, it's often said on the Internet that whale explosions are very dangerous."
"But how did such a creature explode?"
After a moment, Sun Hao asked a question.
Ren Yan held the intercom, looked at the whale carcass moving further and further away, and began to answer:
"Simply put, it's because of fermentation..."
"When a whale is alive, all its vital signs are still functioning, and the large amount of food swallowed in its stomach can still be digested and converted into its own energy."
"But after it dies, all vital signs stop functioning, and the large amount of food in the stomach begins to rot, producing a large amount of gas-like gases, including methane, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia."
"In addition, the faster the internal tissues and organs decay, the faster the bacteria spread, the body's protein breaks down, more gas is produced, and the pressure in the abdomen and intestines increases."
"As the pressure from these gases accumulates, the entire whale's body will become like a bloated balloon."
"When it exceeds its endurance limit, it will explode."
"And think about it, the layer of fat on the whale's body is so thick that it can be blown up. How much power must be contained in it?"
"So, bloated whale carcasses have always been an extremely dangerous presence."
"If you encounter this again, please keep a safe distance of 20 kilometers..."
"Is...is it so dangerous?" Sun Hao was stunned and felt greatly shocked.
There were also some heavy breathing sounds from the others.
He was obviously frightened by Ren Yan's words.
"Maybe even more than that. The bigger the whale, the more powerful the whale explosion. The largest whale explosion that has been documented is equivalent to 30 tons of TNT."
“But this kind of situation is rare.”
Ren Yan continued to add:
"And sometimes a whale's body can actually be a benefit to the ocean if it's not floating because of the gas in its body."
"Then it will sink into the ocean, forming a whale fall, and all its matter and energy will become nutrients for marine life, nourishing the entire ocean."
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reader to read books and keep up with the latest updates. It has a variety of reading voices and can be used on Android and Apple. ]
"This is the origin of the saying, 'When a whale falls, all things come to life.'"
"So, in nature, everything complements and achieves each other."
"The small fish and shrimp feed the whales, and the whales feed them again after they die. This is a balance of nature."
"You can learn more about this later."
Ren Yan still seizes this opportunity to provide basic science popularization and guidance to Class 9.
Everyone in Class Nine listened with great interest because the facts were right before their eyes.
However, in this seemingly happy state.
Suddenly, a luxury yacht came from nowhere and suddenly passed by the location of the whale carcass at a distance of about five nautical miles from Class 9.
Ren Yan's jaw almost dropped:
"Where the hell did this warrior come from?!"
"You dare to do this?!"
Ren Yan muttered to himself, but the moment he finished speaking.
"Pass!
!
"A loud noise came from not far away.
The whale carcass exploded...
