Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 534: Saving People, Tuntun is a Skilled Worker

After dawn, Chen Ying called Klaus again. The other party's voice was hoarse and his tone was urgent.

"Brother Ying, a cruise ship has had an accident and is stranded at sea. We are organizing a rescue operation now."

"Do you need help?"

"No need. We have already arranged for professional personnel to go there. Sorry, I forgot to call you to let you know. My mother and her friends are also on this ship."

"Is everything alright? How are Auntie and the others doing now?"

"It's okay. We have already coordinated a rescue helicopter to go over there, but there are so many people on the cruise ship, it's impossible for everyone to leave by helicopter..."

Before Klas finished speaking, Chen Ying understood what he meant.

A cruise ship carries a lot of people. The total number of passengers from all over the world may be thousands. If it is a large cruise ship, two to three thousand people is normal.

Kras's mother and her friends were able to leave in a rescue helicopter arranged by their family, but what about other ordinary tourists? If some people can be rescued first, the tourists who stay behind will definitely find it difficult to bear it psychologically.

Don't even think about how such a large cruise ship could suddenly break down or be forced to stop sailing in the middle of the ocean. The most urgent priority is rescue.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ying thought about it and went to the village chief's house to inquire about the situation.

The village chief's house was bustling with people. Several older villagers stood at his door, talking in low voices with serious expressions. On the other side, at the outdoor table in his garden, a chubby woman was wiping tears, and four or five women, including the village chief's wife, were trying to comfort her.

"Village chief, what happened?" Chen Ying took the initiative to go over and say hello.

The village is small, but the people are nice. When Chen Ying is not at home, the villagers will take the initiative to help take care of the surrounding environment.

"Something happened to Uncle Chris's eldest son and Grandma Pegado's little grandson. They should have returned last night, but they haven't come back yet, and all their communication methods have failed. The village chief has reported it, but it seems that because something happened elsewhere, the people above are in chaos. They asked them to figure out a solution first, and they will speed up the process over there."

Chen Ying frowned. Those who could stay in this small village were not rich people. If they were asked to figure out a solution, what could they do? Go out on a boat to look for someone?
Eh, sailing out to look for someone? Chen Ying stroked his chin, and it seemed like it was possible.

Is there anyone in the world who is more familiar with the ocean than marine animals? No one!
However, he couldn't announce in a big way that he wanted to use marine animals to help, so he could only set out first and find an excuse later.

Fortunately, he did not waste these three years of rest time. With the strong support of his girlfriend, he learned the driving skills of cruise ships and airplanes, and also passed the diver certification, so he can join the ocean rescue team at any time in an emergency.

After returning home, he contacted the local marine rescue team and learned that most members of their organization had already gone to the sea to participate in the rescue. Professional technicians like Chen Ying are usually not notified to participate in the rescue unless they encounter marine animals asking for help.

Knowing that the nearest rescue team would set out with supplies in three hours, Chen Ying applied to join directly, but hoped to help find two young men from his village at the same time.

The fishing boat they were driving was not an ocean-going fishing boat, so it was impossible for it to go too far. Moreover, according to their family members, the two brothers and several other young people were planning to go to the deep waters of the west coast to catch lobsters and use trawl nets to catch cod.

In their area, the most active fish in winter is cod, and since they don't have a fishing license, they don't dare to catch salmon.

After determining their approximate location, the next step was to check if anyone had seen their ship in which place in the past few days.

These issues will be taken care of by other people, and what Chen Ying needs to do is to take good care of the three seal brothers who follow them to carry out the sea rescue mission.

The younger sister was left at home because of her strength, while Haibo took her two half-brothers to become guides for the Twolegs on the sea.

The first place they had to go was an uninhabited island on the edge of the archipelago, where a fishing boat had broken down and could only dock near the uninhabited island. Fortunately, although there were no humans on the island, there were many plants and naturally stored fresh water, enough to support the crew's survival.

After Chen Ying and his rescue boat arrived near the uninhabited island, they found a group of bottlenose dolphins swimming nearby, who seemed to be very interested in the anchored ships and the two-legged animals on the island.

Haibo looked up alertly on the deck, as if he had discovered something.

When the boat approached the group of dolphins, the people on board also discovered something unusual.

“It seems there are false killer whales mixed in with this group of dolphins?”

"What a joke! False killer whales don't live in this sea area at all." Someone retorted directly, picked up a telescope while speaking, and then fell silent.

"My eyes are clear, right? Is this really a false killer whale?"

Chen Ying didn't say anything. He squatted down and patted Haibo on the back. "Is that the dolphin you fought with? You said it had a baby with the dolphin?"

Haibo made two "oh oh" sounds and slid from the deck into the water. Chen Ying was worried about its safety, so she lowered the rescue boat and followed.

The temperature of this water area is higher than that where it lives, which has a great impact on the seal, but Haibo is very adaptable, so although this temperature is uncomfortable, it will not have much impact on it.

Probably recognizing Haibo, the false killer whale also swam over.

Haibo dodged the opponent's attack and made a hurried sound.

The false killer whale was still trying to fight, but was knocked away by a dolphin that followed closely. Next to the dolphin was a little creature with darker skin and a strange appearance.

The little guy was not interested in the communication between his mother and the big bad seal. After cautiously looking at Chen Ying a few times beside his mother, the little guy swam over bravely.

It was the first time that Chen Ying saw a naturally born cetacean. If the occasion was not inappropriate, he would have gone into the sea to have an intimate, full-body contact with the little creature.

The baby cetacean swam around the rescue boat twice and wanted to play the hand-to-hand game with Chen Ying who reached out to touch it.

Chen Ying had no food to feed it at the moment, so he could only stroke its head again and lower his head to gently touch its forehead.

The little guy was so excited that he tried to jump out of the water, but he was afraid of hurting the two-legged beast with a good smell. The dilemma could be seen on Xiao Hei's face.

"It's okay, little guy, help me, I want to go over to see the two-legged beasts over there, can you let your tribe give way for a while?"

"Dilidi, I'll take you there." The little whale beast turned around and swam a long way along its father's body at a very fast speed. It also looked back at Chen Ying, as if asking him to catch up quickly.

Chen Ying drove the rescue boat to catch up with the little cetacean, and the other dolphins also made way for the waterway leading to the uninhabited island.

Although dolphins are known as playboys in the ocean, they are very gentle towards bipeds, and there are many examples in the literature of dolphins rescuing humans who fell into the water.

They gathered here because they were curious about what the two-legged animals were doing.

The rescue ship approached the fishing boat that was asking for help, and after confirming that no one on the other boat was in danger of life, it left some daily necessities and planned to leave. They were mainly here to rescue trapped people. If the fishing boat had only mechanical failures and the safety of the people was not a problem, they only needed to send a maintenance engineer to come over later.

However, when negotiating with the captain, the other party said that they had seen Chris's fishing boat near an island further south.

"Those guys caught a lot. When we met them, they seemed to be planning to try their luck in the west near the land." That place is close to the archipelago. There are many tourists playing there this season. Maybe those young people wanted to join in the fun. In addition to the fishing boats driven by those young people, there were also other local fishermen's boats working nearby.

In addition, there are many sea hotels converted from old fishing boats in the archipelago. Some tourists like to eat the freshest food, and occasionally fishing boats will sell them freshly caught seafood.

After knowing the general situation of the sea area, the rescue ship decided to go to that area to take a look.

It has been nearly twenty hours since the warning was issued. The wind and waves at sea are getting stronger and stronger, and the undertow has arrived. No one can say whether a tsunami will follow.

Rescuers at the front sent good news that most cruise ships at sea have followed instructions and docked nearby, and the tourists on the cruise ship that had the accident are also being rescued in batches.

In addition to the tourists transported away by helicopter, nearby passenger ships and fishing boats that could carry people also went to the rescue.

On the way to the island where tourists gathered, the wind and waves became stronger and stronger. Even the experienced rescue boat drivers did not dare to take the risk and could only head towards the land first.

But just a short while after changing direction, Haibo and the two little seals suddenly slipped into the water. At this time, the group of dolphins that had been following their rescue boat also began to speed up.

"Follow them, they must have discovered something." As soon as Chen Ying finished speaking, the rescue boat changed back to its original direction and increased its speed.

"Captain, something seems a little wrong. It looks like the tide is receding. Look at the island over there. I remember clearly that the highest reef over there was only about 60 meters from the sea surface. But now, you can see that a lot of the reef below is exposed."

"Captain, we have been notified that a tsunami may occur. Time is running out and we must return to shore."

Chen Ying tilted his head to glance at the rescue team members, then looked at the group of dolphins in front of him whose shadows could no longer be seen, and frowned.

"Can you tell where the dolphins went? They suddenly sped up towards the islands. I wonder if they found someone who fell into the water?"

This is very likely, after all, there are many fishing boats there that are privately taking on business, taking tourists to experience the original ecological ocean fishing. Although they will not stray too far from the coast, who knows if there are a few brave enough to venture far away from the island. With such strong winds and waves, people who don’t often take a boat can easily be bumped and slipped into the sea.

The rescue ship is equipped with drones and sonar devices, and they must now determine whether there is anyone falling into the water ahead.

"Captain, there is a lifeboat six miles ahead, and there are still people drowning around it. The preliminary estimate is five. There are also people trapped on the nearby reef island."

According to the thermal imaging photos sent back by the drone, there were no less than sixteen or seventeen trapped people.

The rescue team leader cursed and ordered the team to speed up, while reporting what they had discovered.

Six nautical miles were reached in a flash. Chen Ying and another team member each drove a lifeboat close to the person who fell into the water, while the rescue boat headed towards the reef area to rescue the trapped people.

But because the water level was dropping, the boats couldn't get too close, and those people had to go into the water and cling to buoys to get close to the rescue boat.

As soon as Chen Ying entered the water, he found Haibo and two little fat boys. The three of them eagerly called out to Chen Ying.

"Is there someone underwater?" Chen Ying understood their hint and quickly took out the walkie-talkie to inform the captain to arrange divers for rescue.

At this time, the baby cetacean also came over, made a "da da da" sound, and then shook its head and dived into the water.

"Chen, look, those dolphins are helping to save people."

Life jackets were not omnipotent, and several people were unable to struggle, with only their heads floating above the water. Just when they were about to despair, a force lifted their bodies up until their chests were above the water.

"It's the dolphins, oh my god, it's the dolphins saving us!"

The three people on the lifeboat lay on the edge and tried to reach out to pull the person who fell into the water, with tears and smiles on their faces, showing the excitement of having been saved from a desperate situation.

Chen Ying threw the inflatable life buoy into the water and tried to call Haibo's name.

"Haibo, Haibo, come and help, give this to them."

Haibo emerged from the water and skillfully pushed the buoy towards the people who fell into the water. He used his body to push against their legs so that they could use the force to climb up and hold on to the buoy.

After the person who fell into the water climbed out, Haibo and the others swam towards the reef island with the buoy.

When the people on the rescue boat saw the person who fell into the water approaching the side of the ship, they quickly arranged for people to pull the person out.

Haibo saw the person on the buoy was successfully rescued onto the boat. After making a "woohoo" sound, he turned around and ran for the next person.

At this time, the rescue team members manipulated the propulsion board to get close to the reef island, released a life-saving buoyancy blanket that could carry people (with a maximum load-bearing capacity of 250 kilograms), and with the help of two seals who came to help, pushed the buoyancy blanket to the gangway.

(Similar to this floating blanket, it can be used as a temporary rescue device)

All the people on the water were quickly rescued, but according to the rescued people, there were at least three or five people whose lives were still unknown.

Chen Ying had just notified the divers on the rescue boat, and now the divers sent a signal that there were three drowning people near the sunken ship who needed urgent rescue.

Two diving rescuers each dragged one person up, while two dolphins were trying to push the other person.

Chen Ying didn't care about anything else. After calling out "Haibo", he jumped directly into the water.

"Chen, Chen, be careful with the waves."

Before he finished speaking, several dolphins and a false killer whale were seen swimming towards Chen Ying at the same time.

"Oh my god, he... he is a follower of Poseidon, the god of the sea?"

"No, he is Asian, he must be the son-in-law of the Dragon King!" One of the rescued people wrapped in a thermal blanket suddenly said, "This area is connected to the North Sea, or he must be the illegitimate son of the Dragon King of the North Sea!"

Chen Ying, who was labeled as the "illegitimate son of the Dragon King", had no idea that his origins had slipped into an indescribable direction. He was already close to the third person who fell into the water. With professional training, he used the most standard rescue method to drag the person to the surface of the sea, while under him, the waves expertly pushed up his hips and accelerated his ascent.

After seeing the seal take the lead, the other dolphins reluctantly tried to snatch it, but were knocked away by a dolphin with a rounder body.

Within the next ten minutes, they found the remaining two people. At this point, all 23 people who fell into the water, including the fishing boat owner and his son, were rescued.

Just as everyone was cheering and preparing to return, the captain made a gesture for silence and looked at the team members and the people who fell into the water with a serious expression.

"Friends, we can't go back yet. Ten miles away, a cruise ship capsized, with more than a hundred people drowned. Because of the wind and waves just now, some rescue blankets were swept into the water. We must go over and help now."

As soon as he finished speaking, a low sobbing sound was heard.
