Godly Fisherman

Chapter 369: Narwhal

One sea route from China to Europe is from the South China Sea, the Strait of Malacca, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean to the Atlantic Ocean. Well, this road is really rushing through the barriers, and there is a high incidence of pirates along the way. Xiao Peng went back to China from Uzbekistan and walked this route.

The northeast channel is much shorter than the traditional channel, and it can save more than ten days of voyage. However, it is frozen all year round, and only a few weeks in summer can be opened for navigation.

And the controversy over the Arctic waterway has been fierce.

Since the Northeast Passage passes along the coast of the Bear Country, all ships passing there must first pay the ‘toll toll’ to the Bear Country, because both the former Soviet Union and the Bear Country regard this as a domestic transportation line. In this regard, countries such as the Stars and Stripes countries such as Norway, Sweden and Canada have always insisted on the right of international passage, and have very opinions on the way the bear country charges tolls.

Of course, in the Arctic Northwest Passage that involves its own waters, the Stars and Stripes countries and Canada regard it as their own transportation line, and they also have to charge a'toll fee.'

While not allowing others to charge tolls, Xiao Peng had to say, "Hooligans, all hooligans".

However, Xiao Pengzhi did not worry about the "tolls" of the Northeast Passage. Didn’t you say that this is a domestic route? Lao Tzu is your religious high priest, and you can also be regarded as your ‘national’! Speed ​​release! Don't delay my time.

Only at this time did Xiao Peng feel his religious identity, really. . . . . . It's so easy to use! Samuel, Samson, I thank you for the eighteenth generation of your family.

"Xiao Peng, come and take a look! What are those?" Yang Meng suddenly called to Xiao Peng. Xiao Peng saw that two black guys on the sea were fighting, like whales, why did they knock with a stick?

Xiao Peng picked up the binoculars and took a look: "Hey, Mengzi, hurry up and see something interesting, it's a unicorn in the sea-a narwhal!"

Narwhal is also called a narwhal. It is absolutely impossible to be confused with other whales. Its shape is absolutely unique. Because the upper left of their mouths in the middle of their heads stretched out a long ‘horn’ in a daze! The length can reach two or three meters long, you know, they are only 4-5 meters long. And its name comes from this.

In Western myths and legends, the unicorn plays a pivotal role. It is a noble and pure spokesperson. In various fantasy stories, it is a necessary dragon sleeve. Many people hope that the unicorn really exists.

It’s a pity that on earth, all princes don’t have horns on their white horse heads. If you want to find unicorns on earth, you can only go to the North Pole. If you are lucky, you can see a head popping out of the water. A big guy with a horn. That is the narwhal.

Some people would say that unicorns are white and narwhals are black! Uh. In fact, the older the narwhal is, the white will appear on its body. Old narwhals are often mistaken for beluga whales because they are all white.

Of course, the narwhal's horns are not actually horns, but. . . . . . Its teeth!

I don’t know what a joke God made during the creation of creating a narwhal with such a big tooth, which penetrates the skin of the narwhal like a drill bit and is exposed outside the mouth. Female narwhals actually have this length. Teeth, just not that long, cannot penetrate the skin. Regarding the function of this spiral tooth, many scholars and scientists still have no unified answer. Some people say that it is used to test the salinity of the ocean, and some people say that it is for food. But one thing is certain. In the narwhal group, whoever has the thickest and longest teeth is the boss.

And if a male narwhal has a dispute, the way to deal with it is to fight with two big teeth, but the interesting thing is that although this long tooth is very sharp, it rarely happens that it hurts the other party, just hitting it. A meal. Whoever can't stand the surrender first.

In the Middle Ages, the teeth of narwhals were regarded as unicorn horns. The price was very expensive, ten times that of the same weight of gold! Doctors believe that grinding teeth into powder can cure all diseases and even bring back to life. It is said to have detoxification function. Therefore, the French royal family used it to make tableware, and the Russian tyrant Ivan used it to make crutches. The royal family of Hofsburg, Austria Use it as a scepter.

Today, because whale oil is an important industrial raw material, but whale meat, tail fins are edible, liver, pancreas, ovary, and pituitary gland can be used as medicine. The huge economic benefits have led to narwhals that are still targeted by humans. Whales are genetically single, extremely picky eaters, and their migratory routes remain the same, leading to the danger of extinction of narwhals. So far, trade in narwhal tusks has been banned globally.

Of course, there are still people taking risks for the huge profits. When visiting the cultural and entertainment market in China, people often come over mysteriously: "Hey, brother, do you want whale tusks?" It refers to the narwhal tusks.

However, ninety-nine out of 100 such people are selling fakes, and the rest can be caught directly. Ok. Those who sell fakes can also be caught.

In China, anyone who says sells narwhal teeth is right to report to the police and catch them directly: or they are liars, or they are selling prohibited items. One grasps one standard.

Xiao Peng asked Yang Meng to keep a distance from the whales, and he ran back to the cabin and took out a non-human machine. This was specially prepared by Xiao Peng when he came, just to shoot such a scene.

Xiao Peng's non-human machine is not the DJI non-human machine with the highest market share. It is China’s domestic zero degree non-human machine. Although Zero Degree-Human-Machine is not as common as DJI Wu-Human-Machine, it is unique in the professional aerial photography market, occupying about one-third of the market. This kind of non-human machine is most suitable for aerial photography.

Xiao Peng ran to the deck, operating a non-human machine and filming scenes of narwhal fights. He said, "I can write for the travel channel, Mengzi, come and see, how shocking!"

Two people had a lot of fun taking pictures on the deck, only to find that one had a yacht sailing towards the whales.

"What kind of ship is that? It's not an Inuit whaling ship, right?" Yang Meng asked.

Xiao Peng shook his head: "It shouldn't be. How could Inuit people drive a yacht to hunt whaling? There can be no yachts here. It should be played elsewhere. I will take a look first." None-the man and the machine flew over.

In the Arctic Circle, it is impossible for anyone to own a yacht. Once the weather is cold, the yacht without ice-breaking capability will be completely abandoned. It should be played during the icebreaking period of the summer months, but even so, be careful of floating ice.

The Inuit have lived in the Arctic Circle for thousands of years, and their only food is meat. I don’t have to eat food if I want to eat here. And whales, seals, reindeer, polar bears, etc. are all on their recipes. But they did their best to hunt whaling. They are accustomed to hunting whaling with a skinned boat made of seal skin called umiak. There are usually eight people on board, six people paddling, one at the helm and one throwing a spear. Such small boats are extremely dangerous in the Arctic Ocean, so small whales like narwhals are the favorite prey of the Inuit. Although the Inuit people in Canada and Greenland have long been accustomed to motor boats and snowmobiles, the Inuit people in the bear country still maintain their traditions, and in summer, most Inuit people will The whole family set out to hunt reindeer and other land animals. So this is definitely not an Inuit whaling ship.

Wu-Man-machine flew to the yacht, just got close to see what was going on, only to see a young man walking out of the cabin with a gun, and fired at Wu-Man-machine. Three shots were missed. None-man-machine. Just when Xiao Peng was about to laugh at his idea, a young man walked out of the cabin and shot directly, smashing the non-human machine.

Xiao Peng looked at the snowflakes on the HMI operation screen, and Yang Meng, you look at me and I see you: "Our HMI was destroyed by someone?"

"Yes." Yang Meng nodded.

"Is this girl crazy?" Xiao Peng was a little dumbfounded.

Yang Meng was puzzled: "Where does this lunatic come from?"

The two were confused. There was a call from the radio from the cockpit. As soon as the two ran back to the cockpit, they heard the radio: "The Chinese ship ahead, leave this sea at speed! Don't be conceited!"

"Who is this? You are at your own risk? What are you bragging about? I went to hit them and sank them!" Yang Meng was about to drive the boat after he said it!

"Don't worry, see what they are going to do." Xiao Peng stopped Yang Meng. Pick up the binoculars and look out the window.

After not watching it for a long time, Xiao Peng directly said to Yang Meng: "Notify the crew and prepare for wave protection."

"Huh?" Yang Meng didn't realize what Xiao Peng meant, turning his head to look at Xiao Peng.

"Fuck, come again?"

Yang Meng didn't know what happened, but he directly notified the whole ship to prepare for wave protection. Moreover, the bow of the ship has been turned and prepared for collision prevention. Yang Meng, who had always looked relaxed, was also serious at this time. The reason is simple. Now Xiao Peng's facial expression is even more serious than when the Bangzi Coast Guard boat attacked him.

Yang Meng knew that this was the rhythm of big events, and had never seen Xiao Peng so angry.

Xiao Peng was really angry this time. A group of men and women on the yacht are not old, but they are well-dressed, and they are the owner of the money. Nothing else, the 28-meter luxury yacht of the British Sunseeker is high-end goods of more than tens of millions of dollars. ! Those who can buy this luxury yacht are absolutely local tyrants.

This group of people was obviously playing on a yacht party, and they were quite crazy. Bottles were thrown everywhere, and even some men and women were already naked and entangled together.

If it were just these, Xiao Peng would really not be angry. That's just the way of life of others. Isn't it the same situation in the hot springs in Kamchatka?

What made Xiao Peng angry is that the young man who shot the drone just now, together with a few other people, took out an NSV from the cabin and aimed it at the narwhal group!

They want to hunt whales!
