253: Ocean hooligan

Yang Qi and Bai Xue tidied the deck. While reeling in the fishing rod with the Tuna's innards, they were almost bitten by a large shark.

After throwing the Tuna's innards back into the sea, the two ignored the Anglers whose thighs were swollen from slapping, and piloted the setting sail out of that sea area.

This time, they didn't look for a specific spot; as long as there were no other boats nearby, it was fine.

The setting sail only had two people. If they got into an argument with others, they couldn't even win a verbal fight, let alone anything else.

So, the two always avoided staying with other boats.

Yang Qi moored the boat and looked around, not seeing any large fish, but he didn't care and began preparing lunch with Bai Xue.

Following the principle of "never leaving empty-handed," he still hung two Skipjack Tuna and threw them into the sea.

Lunch was very rich: two garlic butter vermicelli lobsters, stewed beef ribs, oyster sauce lettuce, a few Crabs, and finally, pickled cabbage Grouper.

The two ate with lingering flavor in their mouths. Since Bai Xue's appetite had grown, everything she ate tasted much better.

Just as the two finished eating, cleaned up, and were about to return to the rest cabin for a nap, Bai Xue suddenly pointed to a spot in front and to the side, excitedly shouting:

"Husband, look over there."

Yang Qi followed the direction of her finger and instantly his eyes brightened.

It turned out to be a pod of dolphins swimming in front and to the side, leaping out of the water from time to time.

"Oh, wow, ocean hooligans!"

Yang Qi immediately looked at the dolphins with excitement and shouted.

Dolphins are very intelligent mammals, with an intelligence level comparable to that of a 6-7 year old human child.

When hunting, they often communicate and cooperate through vocalizations.

They even dare to attack species much larger than themselves, and often succeed.

During mating season, male dolphins will work together to find mates, and will forcibly mate with uncooperative female dolphins. They even engage in homosexual mating.

Therefore, they are also called "ocean hooligans."

The dolphin family has 17 genera and 37 species, with body lengths ranging from 1.2 meters to 10 meters and weights from 50 kg to 6000 kg.

Among them, the famous Orca is the king of the dolphin family.

Whether in terms of length, weight, swimming speed, or intelligence, it is truly an outstanding performer.

Due to its advantages in length, weight, and intelligence, it has become a dominant force in the ocean.

Unlike other dolphins in the dolphin family that feed on small fish, shrimp, shellfish, and mollusks,

Orcas often hunt in teams, targeting sharks and even some whales.

Its high intelligence, coupled with a fearless personality, has also earned it the nickname: "ocean street hooligan."

Dolphins are notorious among marine life, but they are very friendly to humans.

According to records, there has not been a single incident of wild dolphins harming humans. On the contrary, there have been multiple incidents of them saving people in shipwrecks.

The cheers of the two were noticed by the playful dolphins.

They dived into the sea, and in a short while, came within 10 meters of the setting sail, poking their heads out and curiously looking at the two of them.

Yang Qi ran to the freezer, brought out a box of miscellaneous fish caught that morning, and returned to the deck.

He picked up a mackerel and threw it towards the group of six dolphins.

One of the dolphins made a leap, stood up, and caught the mackerel, just like a dog catching food thrown by its owner, which was very amusing.

The other dolphins, seeing that they had no food, immediately dived and came within two meters of the setting sail's side.

They collectively popped their heads out, opened their mouths, and made "ying ying wu wu" sounds, like baby birds, waiting to be fed.

Bai Xue was so excited to see these cute dolphins that she didn't know what to do.

Yang Qi handed her a mackerel, and she remembered to feed the dolphins. Thus, the fed dolphin carried the mackerel and dived, then it was the second one's turn.

"Xiaoxue, give me the camera."

Yang Qi reminded Bai Xue.

"Oh, oh! I forgot."

Bai Xue continued to feed these lovely creatures, while Yang Qi stood by, taking photos and videos of her.

After two rounds of feeding, the dolphins got closer and closer. Finally, they even stood up and took the fish directly from Bai Xue's hand.

Bai Xue took the opportunity to gently stroke the dolphin's head several times, giggling excitedly.

"Husband, you come, I'll take a few photos for you too. It's so much fun."

Bai Xue said to Yang Qi.

After Yang Qi fed them another round, perhaps the dolphins were full, or they had to continue their journey. They slowly all dived into the sea.

When they reappeared, they were already 20 meters away on the surface of the sea.

The dolphins made a few "ying ying wu wu" sounds towards the two, as if saying goodbye, and then disappeared in an instant.

Yang Qi and Bai Xue also waved at the leaping dolphins in the distance. Not long after, they could no longer see them.

The two, in their excitement, no longer had any intention of resting. After a discussion, they decided not to sleep and went to find a school of fish to fish.

Overall, the afternoon's harvest was quite good.

As night fell, the dolphins that had gone away during the day found them again, surrounding the setting sail and repeating their trick.

They showed half their bodies, staring eagerly at the boat, making continuous "ying ying wu wu" sounds.

The two, who were eating, heard the sound and were a little curious. When Yang Qi went to the side of the boat and poked his head out to look, it really was them.

"Oh, wow, are they latching onto us? You guys need to learn to be self-reliant."

"Begging is not a noble act, it affects your image!"

Yang Qi looked at these ocean spirits, complaining somewhat helplessly.

"Oh dear! Husband, just feed them. It's just some fish, and they are so cute!"

Whether it's fish or not doesn't matter! The main thing is fate!

And so, one side was happy feeding, and the other was happy eating.

Yang Qi took out the miscellaneous fish caught in the afternoon and began to chop them into pieces, while Bai Xue fed them one by one.

In fact, Yang Qi was just complaining a bit; a few fish didn't matter, and seeing the adorable dolphins at least made him much happier.

He chopped half a basket of miscellaneous fish before these dolphins were fed. After eating their fill, the dolphins swam away again into the distance.

That night, the two found another uninhabited island reef and went free-diving for wild catches.

They caught many beautiful snails and shellfish, as well as some pretty starfish. There were also some Grouper and lobsters.

Since they didn't rest in the afternoon, the two ended their wild foraging early, washed up, and went to bed, embracing.

The night passed without incident!

The next morning, the first thing the two did after getting up and coming to the deck was, as always, to retrieve the ground cages.

They collected the large Crabs, lobsters, and Octopus inside. Only then did they start preparing breakfast.

Breakfast was much simpler: two Crabs, two lobsters, and some Octopus for a seafood porridge.

Four steamed buns brought from home, plus a plate of pickled radishes, and it was done... PS: Please like, comment, and request updates. It's free "power generated by love."
