Chapter seven hundred and twentieth permanent freeze
Compared to other ships, the Tesis Explorer is not large in size, but with a length of more than 140 meters, it just ran over the ice sheet, leaving a gap larger than a dozen people working desperately to make it.
The ice cave dug out in hours is much bigger!
The gray whale trapped in a small ice cave came to the channel and felt suddenly rich, and the cramped space for movement suddenly became unusually wide.
The breathing method is also much easier. Originally, gray whales had to rise and fall in the vertical distance of the ice cave and stick their entire heads out of the ice cave to take a short breath.
At this moment, you only need to rise briefly in the horizontal direction, and you can take a big breath with the air holes exposed. It is so comfortable that it is almost the same as returning to the sea.
The only thing you need to pay attention to is not to let the whale get too close to the stern of the boat, otherwise it may cause damage.
To this end, Captain Harveys arranged for a few sailors to stay at the stern of the ship. Once a gray whale is found approaching a safe distance, it is necessary to use sound waves to drive it away.
Some tourists tried to come to the upper deck to watch and take pictures, but most of them were dispersed by the second officer. Only a few passengers were left standing. With the help of sailors, each group could only stay for ten minutes.
Those who have not yet had their turn can only squeeze their faces into the narrow portholes, look at the unchanging ice fields, and try their best to squint at the gray whales behind the ship, but unfortunately it is all in vain.
The few tourists standing on the upper deck all took out their mobile phones, and the sound of filming was endless.
Under the clear starry sky, there was a faint gray light on the ice sheet, reflecting the dark waterway. Three huge gray whales poked their heads from the sea one by one. Passengers took the opportunity to take photos and send them to their personal accounts.
At this time, each of the more than 200 tourists on the boat has become a social expert. He only needs to post a few scattered photos of gray whales to get a lot of likes and comments.
"I'm so envious. Becoming friends with whales is definitely the most exciting adventure in life!"
"A ticket is 10,000 euros. I want to say that even if the price of this trip is 100,000 euros, someone will definitely buy up the tickets!"
"Oh my God, if I knew this trip was so exciting, I wouldn't even die to change my ticket!"
"Exchanging tickets, man, it won't be what I think, will it?"
"Yes, it's what you thought (posting the refund record of the Tesis). I originally wanted to go out for fun during this holiday, but something happened suddenly. Due to some work matters, I had no choice but to cancel the trip."
"Your boss should be hanged."
"plus one."
Almost everyone expressed their envy. Looking at the rising number of likes, everyone felt satisfied.
There were indeed a lot of negative emotions that some people had before, but in such envy they all disappeared and turned into laughter.
If there is such a good thing, please do it again!
"Watch the bumps and stay away from the fence!"
Sailors had to warn passengers trying to get close to the fence. The height of the fence is 1.4 meters. It is unlikely for a normal adult to fall, but a mobile phone can.
Just now, a passenger was too close to the fence. As a result, the Tysis was too bumpy when it hit the ice. His hand shook, and his mobile phone fell into the vast sea and disappeared, becoming a piece of marine garbage.
After warning and dissuasion, the passenger had no one to blame and could only go back to the room and sulk.
[I am so envious that I shed tears, I also want such an activity]
[Damn it, I’m so lucky. When I went on a trip, there were huge crowds of people, and all I saw were big butts. How come I’m not so lucky? 】
[If I go, this matter will last three years]
[If it’s less, at least I can play it to my grandson]
[It’s not impossible for great-grandchildren to do so either]
A large number of people fell into regret. If they could have bought the same ticket before Bi Fang set off, maybe they could save the gray whale together with their idol now.
Not to mention that there is still a chance in the middle, because the Tesis has returned to port, so even if there is no advance news, you can still encounter it if you follow it later.
It's a pity that there is no if.
Life cannot be repeated.
Bifang did not board the Tesis. He watched the ship move at a slow speed a hundred meters away. There was still a lot of half a reindeer roasted in the morning and was sent to the galley on the ship. Although it was not much, it was still there.
Also a few thanks to everyone.
Captain Harveys also received a complete reindeer head as a gift from Bi Fangsuo. Since the specimen could not be made in time, only the pale bones were left, which looked particularly ferocious, but added a sense of domineering and wildness.
Harveys was very happy to receive the gift and hung it in the center of the captain's cabin so that anyone who entered could see it at a glance.
It was already three o'clock in the morning. Although most people on the Tesis were very energetic and even excited, Bifang was already quite tired.
Bi Fang stretched out the musk ox hide and prepared to deal with it here all night. All six sled dogs came closer and sat around. It was enough to just build a snow wall to block the wind and snow without digging holes.
Sleep until noon.
The Tethis was no longer in sight, indicating that the advance was going smoothly.
After a brief tidying up, Bi Fang had some breakfast and found that the Tesis was only two miles away from the coast. Maybe it would be possible to return to the sea early this morning!
Bi Fang's prediction was absolutely correct. At two o'clock in the morning, a rare purple aurora appeared in the starry sky. With the last collision, the channel was connected to the sea. Several broken white ice floes floated to the sea. The entire
The air route has been completely opened.
Everyone stared at the sea nervously.
No one knows the final outcome until the last moment.
After a brief silence, everyone heard their own heartbeats in their ears.
Just then, a whale jumped out of the sea.
The huge body, which was more than fifteen meters long and weighed more than thirty tons, flew into the air, stood still for a moment, and then fell back along the same path, exploding the sea surface.
The scene was so shocking, it was like a slow-motion shot in a movie. After the first one, there was a second one, a third one, a fourth one. No, they kept looping, jumping up again and again.
The huge body rushed out of the sea seven or eight meters, almost three stories high!
A large amount of water mist rose from the sea, blurring the colorful light.
The ethereal whale call echoed across the earth, exceptionally long.
It was catharsis after being trapped for a long time, and it was also the joy of returning to the sea.
Whether it was the millions of viewers in front of the screen or the sailors and passengers standing on the upper deck, they had never felt the emotions contained in the animal sounds so clearly, and they were stagnant for a while.
The gorgeous Northern Lights, the ice fields illuminated by the "Midnight Sun", the wonderful moment of whales out to sea, and the speed and passion of dog sledding.
When people are busy in high-rise buildings, maybe a whale breaks out of the sea of Greenland at the same time...
Tourists press the shutter to freeze this moment forever.
