Ye Yaodong entered the cabin shivering, put his clothes on the bed, and saw that Lin Guangyuan had already put on his clothes and wrapped himself in bed.

There was no one in the other beds. Everyone was standing on the deck without coming in. They had all had enough sleep, and they were all looking curiously at the fish on the sea.

It's very rare to see someone that big.

"Are you okay? Drink some hot water."

"Fortunately, I took a shower and felt comfortable." He sniffed and said, "You should also take a shower and change clothes quickly to avoid catching a cold."

"Um."

Ye Yaodong first went to get hot water for himself, changed his clothes, and took a sip of hot tea before he felt alive. His teeth were chattering from the cold and he sneezed several times.

"What kind of fish is that, uncle? It's so big, and there are too many barnacles on it, right?"

"A gray whale is a kind of whale. This boat like mine can't catch such a big gray whale."

"Oh, it's so magical. I was actually saved by a fish. Why does this fish keep staying on the sea?"

"Who are you asking me to ask? Go to sleep quickly. I'll call you when we dock."

Most likely it's because of the barnacles all over my body.

"Okay, would you like to sleep too?"

"Um."

He was indeed tired after staying up all night. He had been frightened just now, and he just wanted to have a good rest now.

But the fish that everyone was looking at outside was also novel to him, and he was a little reluctant to sleep.

After pouring out the water, he also walked to the deck.

Several boatmen continued to point at the sea and got closer to the side of the boat. They were worried that the fish would go crazy and move away, but now they are no longer afraid.

He also came over to take a look, listened to a few words and asked some questions.

"Is this fish always following you?"

"Yes, there are three boats following us. We can obviously speed up to get rid of them, but the ones in front speed up, and the ones behind them slow down again, deliberately letting them follow."

"Did you follow it on purpose?"

Ye Yaodong felt the speed of the fishing boat, and it seemed that it was indeed not going very fast.

"I don't know if I want to catch it, so I just keep following it..."

"It doesn't look like it will attack us. It has been following it for a long time. It seems that it only touches the boat occasionally."

"Have you ever seen a big fish attack a fishing boat?"

"Of course I've seen it... but it's not this big. I don't know how long this fish will continue to follow..."

They were talking in a flurry, and Ye Yaodong was also a little confused. After thinking about it, he climbed to the top of the helm and asked again.

It turned out to be Pei's father's idea, saying that since the waves were not that big now and they were already offshore, the fish seemed to be following them, so it would be a pity to just leave alone.

So they were planning to slow down, let the fish catch up, and then find an island nearby to check for a while to see if the fish would be stranded.

Ye Yaodong also thought about how it could be cleaned up if it was covered with barnacles.

Of course Chen Laoqi was not qualified to express his opinion. He just listened to Father Ye and Father Pei.

When Father Ye met Father Pei, he naturally listened to Father Pei, and he was also curious about whether such a big fish would be stranded directly as Father Pei said if it came close to the island.

In case it gets stranded, they can use two boats to pull the big fish to the shore.

One boat can't handle this fish, so two or three boats can work together, no matter what, they can do something about it.

Ye Yaodong was surprised by Pei's father's boldness. He didn't expect that the two people's ideas were so different.

Come to think of it, let's wait until it's stranded. The barnacles on this gray whale's body are so dense that it won't take long to find a nearby island while moving forward.

However, he was too tired now. He stayed up late and was frightened. He went into the water and took a dip. He had no energy to wait there.

So he just told Chen Laoqi to give it a try first, and if the fish really stranded, ask someone to wake him up.

He returned to the cabin and squinted for a while.

Lin Guangyuan was already fast asleep.

After a while, his consciousness became blurred.

When I woke up again I was shaken awake.

"Dong...Brother Dong...hurry up...fall into the water..." Chen Shi shouted excitedly while shaking him.

Ye Yaodong was woken up in a daze with a splitting headache, "What is it?"

"The whale... fell... into the sea."

"Why did you come in to talk?" He rubbed his temples, and he didn't know how to send someone to speak eloquently to convey the message, and he couldn't understand what he meant.

"The fish... fell into the sea..."

"That gray whale fell into the sea? Let me go check it out."

He didn't understand what Chen Shi meant either.

Ye Yaodong quickly put on his clothes and followed him out. The fishing boat was currently in the middle of the sea, but there was an island not far ahead.

At this time, the three boats were docked side by side, and everyone was talking and talking.

"I saw it fell directly..."

"The water here is not very deep. You can go down and have a look..."

Ye Yaodong listened to everyone's discussion and understood a little better. The whale that had been following them just fell into the water, so they stopped the boat to wake him up.

He looked at Chen Laoqi, who was also standing on the deck, "What should I say? Tell me about the situation?"

"I couldn't see clearly from the cockpit. It was just that this whale had been following the fishing boat. All three of our boats guided it closer to the island, but it swam slower and slower, and we all slowed down later."

"But it suddenly disappeared just now, so we stopped the boat and came down to take a look. The boatman who had been watching the fish said that the fish had fallen. It didn't swim or even move. It just fell directly."

Ye Yaodong was surprised, "Fall directly? Whale fall?"

"What whale falls?"

"Are you sure it fell straight down?"

"Yes, yes, the sea water is very clear. I can clearly see that the fish has been swimming beside the fishing boat just now, but the speed is getting slower and slower. It simply stops moving behind and falls directly to the bottom of the water. I also see

Its belly is facing up." Xiao Wu said excitedly while gesturing.

"We also saw it. We have been staring at this fish just now. It was still swimming, but when we saw it moving, it simply stopped moving and fell down."

Ye Yaodong's heart beat a beat fast, and the whale fell!

I have only heard of it but never seen it. Could it really be a whale falling?

"I'll crawl over and ask them."

He looked at the distance to the boats next to him and hooked the Harvest with a hook to bring the two boats closer so that he could climb over more easily.

Father Pei was also shouting to Father Ye. He turned around and saw him coming and told him.

"You came at the right time. Everyone said that the fish fell, probably died, and fell into the sea. I originally thought of leading it to the island and stranding it, but I didn't expect that it died before it reached the island."

Father Ye also said: "My relatives said that you have two pieces of diving equipment on the boat. It shouldn't be very deep down there. There is an island next to it, so I want to wake you up and ask two people to go down and take a look at that

Did the whale really die and fall into the sea?"

"You guys on the boat also saw the fish falling straight down?"

"Yes, they have been curious about this fish following us and bumping into it from time to time. Later I also felt that the force of its bumping was getting smaller and smaller, and even the swimming speed was like a turtle crawling."

Father Pei also added, "The workers on my boat have been watching. My boat fell behind you, and the fish fell down behind. Your boat was still moving forward, and my workers saw the fish flipping over and falling.

Those who went down, they definitely said they were dead."

The sun is shining brightly at the moment, so the visibility is quite good. The ocean has not been polluted yet. The water looks extremely clear. It is still believable to see the fish flipping sideways and falling down.

"Then go down and have a look."

Ye Yaodong looked at the island in the distance and then at the water surface, "Where did it fall?"

"This way."

"here……"

The two old ones pointed to a water surface behind them at the same time.

"Then I'll call the previous one and come down with me to have a look."

"Wait a minute? There are waves now and it's not safe." Father Ye was a little worried.

Lin Guangyuan just had an accident this morning. Although the waves were not as big as in the early morning, there were still waves.

Father Ye was still frightened and did not dare to take risks.

"How far are we from the city now?"

"We'll be there in about another hour."
