What surprised Li Duoyu was that.

The whale's belly moved by itself, which made everyone realize that it was a sperm whale mother, and there was a living baby whale in its belly.

In a sense, sperm whales are still in competition with their fishermen. Wherever sperm whales pass, fish will disappear.

And the number of sea fish eaten by sperm whales in a day is even more terrifying. An adult sperm whale can even eat a lot of food in a day.

It can be seen that after there was a baby whale in the whale's belly, even old fishermen like Dabo were silent.

Many people present also felt sorry. When they thought about cutting it open, there was still a baby whale inside, and they felt a little uncomfortable instantly.

After thinking for a while, Li Duoyu said: "Why don't we try to save it. It's best if we can save it, but forget it if we can't."

Li Duoyu just said it. He didn't think the villagers would support his approach.

And it was too difficult to save the sperm whale. He couldn't do it alone anyway.

Faced with Li Duoyu's words, the Zhao brothers, who were only thinking about making money, were naturally unhappy.

The reason they were willing to spend time here was to wait for the whale to die, and then get more whale meat to sell to those city people who had never eaten whale meat.

This time Zhao Dahai finally plucked up the courage:

"Brother Yu, you have already called the Fisheries Bureau, so there is no need to save it. The whale is dead, and we can at least share some meat."

And Zhao Dahai had just finished speaking.

An old lady next to him scolded: "Zhao Dahai, do you have any sympathy? Didn't you see that there is a baby in the whale's belly?"

Some women also echoed: "You have no sympathy at all, no wonder you can't get a wife."

Zhao Dahai wanted to scold, but when he thought that among these women, there might be their future mother-in-law.

He endured it on the spot.

Seeing that everyone had a disagreement, uncle Li Niantian shouted to the villagers who were watching:

"Everyone, listen to me first. Whale meat is really not delicious and can't be sold for much money. There is no need to kill the whale now."

"How about this, let us try to save the whale with Duoyu first. If we really can't save it, everyone will share the whale meat, and our family doesn't want any of it. Let's see if it works."

Li Duoyu followed and said, "I don't want it either."

Uncle was originally the captain of the fishery team and was quite prestigious among the fishermen. After hearing what he said, everyone stopped arguing.

A fisherman who had been in the fishery team before took the lead and said, "Okay, we listen to the captain."

The second uncle, who had already cleaned his pipe, lit up again and said, "I have been fishing for a lifetime, but I have never saved a fish. Let's just try it today."

"If you want to save the fish, then I will come too."

"Forget it, I will join too."

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that in addition to their own people, more than 20 villagers decided to participate in the rescue of the sperm whale.

The Zhao brothers were dumbfounded.

How could there be so many fools? Why would they save the fish when there is nothing to eat?

And all of them looked at Li Duoyu.

The leader asked, "Duoyu, how should we save it next?"

Li Duoyu was stunned on the spot.

In his previous life, he had never seen a sperm whale in person. At most, he had watched short videos and saw the rescue in Zhoushan.

How could he know how to save it?

Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Li Duoyu, who was forced to do something, simply tried his best.

"First, find something to cover the whale to prevent it from being dehydrated by the sun."

"Also... everyone go back and get buckets and hoes. We have to keep watering the whale and dig a mud pit for the whale to lie in."

Hearing that something needed to be covered, the eldest cousin Li Shuguang took the lead and said, "Duoyu, can my tarpaulin used to cover fishing boats be used?"

Li Duoyu, who was only half-baked, didn't know much, so he replied directly, "Yes, anything that can be covered will do."

"Then I'll go back and get it now."

After hearing Li Duoyu's instructions, everyone seemed very motivated, and each of them moved very quickly. Many fishermen went back to get buckets and hoes.

Seeing that everyone was so serious, Li Duoyu felt that since he chose to save it, he must go all out.

He asked the fat boy to watch the ambergris first, and then used the bucket he brought to scoop up the surrounding seawater and pour it on the whale.

Fortunately, this is a mudflat, not as dry as a beach. In addition, the tide has just receded, so if you step hard on the mudflat, you can step out a puddle.

Li Duoyu kept scooping sea water and splashing it on the sperm whale to cool it down as much as possible.

After splashing for more than ten minutes.

The dying sperm whale regained some vitality and made a faint cry. It seems that splashing water to cool it down is still very effective.

And its cry.

It caused a response from the whale group not far away, and the long whale cry echoed over the island.

Not long after, many fishermen who went back to get tools came over on mud horses.

Everyone also learned from Li Duoyu, scooping up water and splashing it on the whale, and some covered the sperm whale with thin mud, which is more helpful for the sperm whale to keep moisturized.

What surprised Li Duoyu was that his father also came and helped Li Shuguang transport his large tarpaulin with a large mud horse.

After seeing the tarpaulin coming.

Li Duoyu originally wanted to cover the sperm whale directly, but he looked around and found that it was full of his own bamboo stakes and ropes.

He simply changed his mind.

He pulled out a few bamboos as pillars and worked together to prop up the tarpaulin brought by his eldest cousin, turning it into a big tent.

Under the tent.

Li Duoyu felt that the temperature dropped by three or four degrees in an instant.

Maybe because the sperm whale felt that these fishermen were helping it, it cooperated very well and did not move or flap its tail from beginning to end.

It only made a faint sound occasionally, as if it was communicating with the sperm whale in the sea.

The villagers holding hoes dug the soil around the whale and tried to keep the whale's body in the water.

Digging a pit in the mudflat is really difficult, because the mud is very sticky, so it requires some skills. When digging, after pulling it up, you have to throw the mud out.

After about two hours, most of the whale's body was soaked in seawater, and the whale's body became very wet.

Everyone had done their best to achieve this, but there were still six hours before the high tide.

Some villagers did not continue to wait after helping, and left in advance. Lao Li also took Li Haoran, who had been playing in the mud for a long time, back home.

He took the ambergris with him.

He had to go back to get food for Li Duoyu and his brother who continued to hold their positions.

...

Just an hour ago, Lao Zhuang had already arrived at the Fisheries Bureau and reported the situation to the person in charge of the bureau.

Faced with this situation, the person in charge of the Fisheries Bureau also called his superiors for instructions.

The reply he received was:

Bring experts from the Fisheries Research Institute to rescue the sperm whale as much as possible, and reporters were also sent down urgently.

It is planned to film the process of rescuing the sperm whale, because in this special era, the country needs to show some positive images internationally.

When a fishery administration ship arrived at the scene, everyone on the ship was dumbfounded.

They found a big tent at the stranded site. They thought the sperm whale had been killed by the villagers.

As the boat approached, they found that the stranded sperm whale was protected.

This made the accompanying "expert" Chen Dongqing confused, feeling that someone had snatched his chance to perform again.

This time there were reporters accompanying him, and he planned to perform well, hoping to be on the newspaper.

Unexpectedly...

Although he didn't go to the scene, Chen Dongqing had vaguely guessed who it was. When he came to the tent, he saw Li Duoyu, who was covered in mud, smoking there.

Chen Dongqing was numb and didn't bother to ask. He directly checked the physical condition of the stranded sperm whale and found that it was not very good.

Sperm whales are too heavy. Once stranded, it is difficult to save them. Although he is a student of oceanography.

But their teachers really didn't teach them the knowledge of rescuing whales. Most of them were learned from foreign publications.

When Chen Dongqing noticed the belly of the sperm whale, he was shocked.

For a moment, Chen Dongqing seemed to understand why Li Duoyu saved the sperm whale.

In fact, he suddenly had this feeling after becoming a father, that is, he couldn't help but want to protect the cub.

After learning that there was a child in the sperm whale's belly, the accompanying female reporter Lu Xiaoyu immediately popped out an article of nearly three or four thousand words in her mind.

Then.

Regardless of whether the sperm whale was saved or not, the female reporter asked everyone to stand and take pictures.

And Li Duoyu's intuition told him that whether the whale was saved or not, it would definitely be reported, and he thought of the villagers who helped just now.

"Don't rush to take pictures, there were many people helping just now, let's call them."

The female reporter Lu Xiaoyu replied: "Okay, no problem, the more people the better."

Li Duoyu hurried to find the villagers who helped save the sperm whale just now.

About half an hour later.

More than 30 people stood in front of the sperm whale and took a group photo.

In order to rescue the sperm whale, Li Duoyu and his team repeatedly splashed water on the sperm whale until night fell, and then they removed the tarpaulin.

On this day, the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar, the moon was very round.

The tide was also very high.

Most of the onlookers had already left, while Li Duoyu and Chen Dongqing accompanied the female reporter on a sampan.

The female reporter wanted to use a camera to record the moment when the whale was truly rescued.

It was about ten o'clock in the evening.

The tide rose to the place where the sperm whale was stranded. The female whale slapped its tail vigorously several times, twisted its body, and made a faint whale call.

"She" called.

Immediately, many sperm whales responded on the sea, and many villagers on Dandan Island who had fallen asleep were awakened by the happy calls of the whales that night.

But what Li Duoyu worried about still happened. The tide rose, but the mother whale was silent.

After seeing this situation,

Chen Dongqing couldn't help but sigh, feeling it was a pity.

What everyone didn't expect was that a smaller sperm whale risked its life to swim to the stranded sperm whale.

It used its huge head to push the powerless female whale to the deep sea.

It pushed for about ten minutes.

The female whale was finally pushed to the deep sea area, and the whale floated up, and the female reporter who was accompanying her took a very precious photo of this scene.

At night, under the moonlight.

The sea surface of Dandan Island was very bright, emitting a layer of light silver light. A group of whales cheered there and made waves of melodious whale calls.

A small sperm whale circled their small sampan several times, and then not far from them, it jumped directly, half of its body was exposed to the sea surface, as if to express gratitude to them.

After the mother whale was rescued, the group of whales stayed here for nearly half an hour before continuing to their destination.

After seeing this scene.

Li Duoyu was also sincerely happy for the decision he made before.
