Chapter 111:
"Boom!"
With the deafening thunder, the originally peaceful night was completely broken.
The sea otters, including Chen Xing, were awakened by the loud thunder, and the sea otters in the group who were on duty tonight also called out a warning. Everyone realized that the situation was not good at this time.
Along with the rumbling thunder, white lightning flashed one after another in the sky, looking very dangerous.
If a person who is afraid of thunder is in such an open-air environment, I am afraid that tears will come out of fear.
Looking at the lightning in the sky and listening to the roaring thunder, Chen Xing's heart sank.
It was destined to be a restless night, and the sea was ruthless, and there might be a storm.
Even if the seaweed straps are wrapped around the body of the big guy, many sea otters still hold hands with their companions, and even the group of sea otters resting on the rocks have already swam into the sea to pull the seaweed, but the storm at sea Up, who knows if it can be resisted in the end.
The first time he experienced such a thunderstorm at sea, Chen Xing was more worried than other sea otters about the next development.
Sure enough, after a while, the rain poured down, and the bean-sized raindrops collided with the sea surface and made a clattering sound.
Chen Xing fiddled with the seaweed wrapped around his body to make them more tightly wrapped. He couldn't care about anything else. For the first time, he took the initiative to pull up the little hand of the sea otter "friend" beside him to prevent himself and the other party from being washed away.
The storm soon came as Chen Xing expected, and the sea otters on the sea nervously tightened the seaweed on their bodies, grabbed the claws of their companions, and resisted the coming strong storm.
The next moment, the waves are surging, and the waves that are usually not too calm are even more turbulent under the action of the storm. The ground moves with rapid ups and downs.
Another high wave came, and the salty sea water splashed Chen Xing all over his face, almost choking him.
Chen Xing took a deep breath and quickly held his breath, so as not to be caught off guard again.
The sea otter's breath-holding ability is good, and as long as he works hard to hold on, he is not afraid of being drowned because of this storm.
The resistance brought by the sea water is getting bigger and bigger, so Chen Xing's hands are getting stronger and stronger, holding the sea otter friend and the seaweed on his body tightly, and he will also hold his companions even if the waves rise and fall.
"Hey!"
At this moment, Chen Xing vaguely heard a tender voice amidst the sound of the waves and the roaring thunder, like the cry of a cub.
The waves were too big, and the rain had not stopped. It was still night and the visibility was low. Chen Xing looked around and could only see a vague shadow.
Just when Chen Xing thought he was hallucinating just now, the audience in the live broadcast room helped a lot.
[I seem to have seen sea otter cubs! 】
[Me too, a little sea otter actually floated to Xingxing and them alone, and I didn't see the mother sea otter beside me! 】
【It really is! What to do now, the wind and waves are so big, and the little sea otter is not protected by the mother sea otter, the next situation will definitely not be much better! 】
To see the little sea otter alone, let alone howling mournfully, the little sea otter who was separated from the sea otter mother, the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't bear it, and they were very anxious.
Chen Xing, who happened to see these barrages posted by the audience, quickly used the camera in the live broadcast room to look around, and actually saw the cub's solitary mouth and howling in the picture.
I'm afraid it's because of the terrible storm and rolling waves tonight that the mother sea otter didn't catch the little sea otter for a while, so the little sea otter let the little sea otter float here alone.
The little sea otter only saw two broken seaweed belts. At this time, there was nothing fixed on the body. It was drifting further away with the waves.
Can't continue to let the little sea otter float away alone.
If the baby sea otter is allowed to float away alone, even if it survives the storm, the baby sea otter lost alone with the mother sea otter will not survive for a few days without other help.
Just like Chen Xing, who first came to this world, was accidentally separated from his mother sea otter. If he was not lucky enough to be seen by the rescue center and brought back to raise him, I am afraid that he would have lost his life on the first day he came to this world. !
Chen Xing felt empathy for the little sea otter, and he was even more reluctant to see such a cute little life disappear before his eyes. Therefore, it was imperative to save the little sea otter.
The direction the little sea otter floated with the waves was not towards Chen Xing, but in the opposite direction. If the little sea otter was allowed to be carried away by the waves, the distance between the two would only get farther and farther.
Chen Xing thought for a while, then decisively released the claws of his friend who was holding the sea otter, and quickly started to pull the seaweed tape wrapped around his body away.
With the separation of these seaweed belts on his body, Chen Xing himself completely lost the fixation effect of seaweed on him.
Chen Xing's stout body thrown in the sea otter group is not worth mentioning at all under the invasion of the waves. His body moves up and down directly with the incoming waves, and the fluctuation is greater than when he was fixed by the seaweed just now. Difficult to control.
Fortunately, the direction of the waves was the same. Chen Xing let the waves drive his body, and used the power of the waves to swim in the direction of the little sea otter.
Following the strength of the waves and Chen Xing's own efforts, he finally narrowed the distance between him and the little sea otter little by little.
"嘤嘤嘤" The little sea otter still screamed very mournfully, screaming and calling for a response from his mother.
【Stars, come on! 】
[Woooooo, the sea is so scary, I'm so worried about the stars and other sea otters! 】
[Suddenly regretted for Xingxing, why don't I just stay at the rescue center, so that I don't have to go through a storm like today, and I don't have to encounter this kind of life-threatening danger. 】
Finally, with Chen Xing's efforts that he didn't dare to relax for a second, he came to Little Sea Otter with difficulty, and quickly stretched out his claws to hug Little Sea Otter tightly in his arms.
"嘤" Even though Chen Xing held him in his arms, the little sea otter still didn't stop crying.
The sea water at night is very cold, and coupled with the rough waves and bean-sized rain, the temperature will only get colder and colder.
Chen Xing, who was holding the little sea otter, felt that the little guy in his arms was shaking from the cold.
Chen Xing kept himself in a floating position and let the little guy in his arms lie on his stomach, just like the mother sea otter with the little sea otter.
Chen Xing used his body as an interval to isolate the little sea otter from the icy seawater as much as possible to reduce heat loss.
If the baby sea otter loses too much body heat, even if it is not separated from the sea otter mother for a while, it will be frozen to death by this icy sea otter.
Let the little sea otter lie on his stomach, and Chen Xing quickly brushed the little sea otter roughly to get rid of the water droplets.
After combing the ground, Chen Xing had to quickly find a way to return to the seaweed forest just now.
Chen Xing didn't know how long this sudden storm would last. If he followed the waves, who knew how far he would end up.
During the process, if you accidentally hit a rock or even encounter a natural enemy, you will die!
Similarly, if Chen Xing left the sea otter group and went far away alone, he could not guarantee that he would survive.
Staying in this sea otter group, at least there are few natural enemies, food is still sufficient, and there are seaweed forests, it is simply the best settlement for sea otters.
In the case of some choices, Chen Xing does not want to leave this place for the time being.
In addition, although Chen Xing temporarily stopped the little sea otter from leaving just now, the little sea otter still needs the support of the sea otter mother. Even if Chen Xing is willing to be a male mother, he cannot bring milk to the little sea otter. It is impossible to achieve this goal.
Only by staying in this sea otter colony will the baby sea otter have a chance to be reunited with the mother sea otter after the storm is over, and only then will it have a chance to continue to survive.
Based on these reasons, at this moment, Chen Xing naturally couldn't take the little sea otter with him, and could only find a way to return to his previous position.
Just now, Chen Xing came to Little Sea Otter with the help of the strength of the waves, but at this moment, if he wanted to bring Little Sea Otter back to the position just now, the waves became a strong resistance for him to go back.
Chen Xing hugged the little sea otter tightly in his arms, not daring to relax, but his hind limbs tried to swim forward in the opposite direction of the waves.
"Wow hoo hoo!"
Chen Xinggang took the little sea otter to advance a distance of more than ten centimeters, but when a wave hit, he and the little sea otter did not advance but retreated, and were directly washed further by the waves.
"Cough!" Chen Xing, who became a sea otter in the soup, was not discouraged by this. Taking advantage of the time before the next wave, he quickly set off again, and moved forward as quickly as possible with the little sea otter in his arms.
