Chapter 26: The fishy smell coming from inside was delicious
No matter how worried people are, polar bears are still so helpless on land, enduring the heat and hunger, freeing up their limited energy to try to find food for themselves.
Or they prefer to stay still, trying to rely on their body fat to wait for the snow to fall.
The smart sea doves came sniffing around the polar bears' mealtime, chattering and sharing the remains of the food that Odis and Qiao Qixi had left.
Once three times over, they remembered this additional foraging spot.
The noisy seabirds and the fishy smell of food remains in the air, not surprisingly, attracted new foragers.
After more than two months of terrestrial life baptism, these polar bears who came from afar have tired faces and thin stature, and there is no innocent and lively light in their eyes.
Fortunately, the god of luck did not leave them, and before the beluga whales left the shallow waters, the big, gray guys finally caught up.
Yes, grey and puffy.
Especially the face and the back of the nose, it is simply pitch black.
If compared with them, Qiao Qixi will find how handsome and white he is.
A total of three male polar bears arrived one after another, they were tired and exhausted, and they no longer pose a threat to the mother bear and the cubs, but the cautious mother bear took the cubs to Odis's 'territory' temporarily to avoid the risk.
The three polar bears were clearly aiming for the beluga whales that were wandering in the shallow waters.
After a long journey, they were already hungry, but the meal was close at hand, so they needed to take their time.
The drone noticed the scene, and the three polar bears were scattered all over the sea, not interfering with each other, hungry, they are about to play their hunting skills, and may soon be able to get a good meal.
The first time I saw a bear, I was bored and yawning under the shade of a tree, and suddenly I saw a mother and child walking over.
Hi, neighbour bear, okay, have you eaten?
I don't know if it's Qiao Qixi's illusion, but it seems that the next-door bear has grown up a bit, and is taller, because the dry rice is more frequent recently?
The little bear family still has to eat to grow up.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qixi couldn't help but look down at his waistline, but he couldn't tell whether he had gained weight or had he grown.
The only thing you can be sure of is that you are twice as tall and strong as the bear, which means that he is not a baby anymore, but a sub-adult bear.
But so what?
Odis still treats him as a baby all day long, except for hunting, he can't be distracted, and the rest of the time looks at him pretty well.
This kind of treatment may have been 'enjoyed' before Qiao Qixi was three years old when he was a human.
Now, the sudden arrival of Mama Bear shocked Odis, who was sleeping beside Qiao Qixi.
The behemoth, who was taller than any of the new polar bears, opened his eyes, with a trace of sleep remaining in them, and quickly woke up, then got up and stretched his muscles.
Odis doing this move, and felines are somewhat similar, well, bears and dogs belong to the same family, rather like felines, rather than the instinct of canines.
When you think about it, Odiz and the dog are actually close relatives, Qiao Qixi died laughing.
While Odis was stretching, his sight had noticed the mother and child bears that 'invaded' the territory, as well as the scent of those strange polar bears floating over upstream.
It was clear by the way he stretched his neck that he was scouting the situation.
The mother bear with cubs and Odis, also mother and son, looked at each other from a distance, a move that, in Qiao Qixi's eyes, was a silent deliberation, the mother bear testing Odis's attitude, and Odis defending his position.
Although there is no sound, but the communication is unhindered.
In the end, as Qiao Qixi guessed, the mother bear with cubs stopped and stayed at the edge of Oddis' 'territory', which was the result of the 'discussion' between them.
Qiao Qixi couldn't help but be proud of his ability to interpret. After being a polar bear for more than four months, he has been able to interpret a lot of polar bear's behavioural language without leaving it.
It seems that in another six months, between him and Odis, the communication will definitely be smoother and more natural.
The three new neighbours did not have a real impact on Qiao Qixi's life, although he had already learned of the new neighbours through his keen sense of smell.
At the same time, Qiao Qixi did not resent the fact that strange polar bears had found their way here.
On the contrary, there are relatively sufficient hunting opportunities here, which can reduce the risk of starvation. One more hunting can prevent the possibility of a polar bear starving to death. He is quite happy to see it.
Beluga whales swim into shallow tributaries to stay in season, which means this polar bear paradise is not for long, until the beluga whales swim back to their deep-sea habitat, they are also about to embark on another food search.
Odis knows this and will try to hunt for food in the limited time available.
Feed yourself and your cubs.
In mid-August, the temperature on this coast is higher than last year's record, and has reached a point where polar bears are on the edge of their seats.
The beluga whales that are about to swim back into the deep sea are becoming harder and harder to catch.
Perhaps patiently squatting all day, may not be able to succeed.
The young polar bear, who is learning to hunt with Odis, has a slight sense of the current situation, and he doesn't know if Odis is anxious or not.
Of course, this is a seasonal problem, it is normal, ooh yi yi yi.
The season of hair change, Odis body is also a bunch of hair bumps, the trunk of one of the larger trees on the shore, as well as those uneven rocky ground, became Odis used to assist in fading and scratching tools.
Obviously these hairy lumps in his body makes him very uncomfortable.
The place where the mouth can reach, has been torn off by Odis.
The little polar bear, which only dries out, obviously came in handy at this time.
Seeing Odis rolling on the ground, the little polar bear put his mouth up to help each other clean up the lumps of hair that had not been removed.
Feeling the pull, Odis suddenly stood still and looked up at the bear who was helping him.
The act of helping each other rip the bumps off their bodies is not something that happens between two polar bears in general, and there is no such awareness in genetic memory.
Odis did this because he loved his cubs, and the humans who observed them believed that the young polar bear was influenced by Odis to do so.
All in all, these are two intelligent and gentle polar bears who seem to be quite friendly to other polar bears.
This season is the season when the hair on the belly of the polar bear is the thinnest, because they need to be cool.
Qiao Qixi patiently finished cleaning the old fur on Odis's belly and licked the fragile part where the skin could be vaguely seen, where a new layer of dense, fine fluff would soon grow again.
It is used to winterize.
Odis lies on his back and doesn't move, seemingly enjoying the little polar bear's attentive service.
Whenever the bear stops, he will only look at the bear with a 'look forward to continue' gaze.
Even if he can't speak, he is full of words.
Qiao Qixi this is not stopping to clean the hair on his mouth with his paws?
Licking, licking.
There is a sentence to say, Odis's abdominal muscles can be really strong, no sense of fat at all.
Qiao Qixi, who exuded his thoughts while working hard, thought to himself, I don't know what the taste of Odis was when he licked his belly?
Oh, it must be very tired.
"..."
Today is different. The world seems to be getting more and more difficult. After working as a child laborer in Odis, the other party still wants to hold him.
But how can he sleep ah?
This is half a day without eating.
Patiently waiting for Odis to fall asleep, Qiao Qixi sneaked to the water's edge to lie down, may be able to wait for a blind white whale.
It is said that he really wants to successfully catch a beluga whale this summer and share it with Odis.
Recently, his self-motivated and determination have been seen by netizens on the forum.
But Alexander, as a bear cannot catch the white whale is really the norm, there is no need to stare at the sea 24 hours a day.
That way Odis may think he has failed in his duty to feed you...
Did you forget the nightmare of being chased and fed?
Alexander caught beluga whales today?
The owner today posted a picture of a young polar bear hunting alone, overlooking the sea with only himself as a bear: the self motivated Alexander.
: Oh woo, look at this hard working little dumpling, no angles at all.
: What's going on? There is no Odis around, I said he is not reliable with children.
: No, Odis is resting.
: It seems that everyone has misunderstood, Odis caught a white whale not long ago, they are not hungry now, I guess Alexander just want to learn to hunt.
: The child is so competitive, the old father shed tears of relief (although he did not succeed once, laughing to death)
: Regardless of the results, this effort is worthy of praise, but still to say a word ha, Alexander like a very hard-working students in our class, the earliest every day to go the latest, but the results hey.
: The first one is the first one to come and the last one to go.
: You guys don't say that about Alexander, what is the most important thing these days? Not the achievement, but the attitude!
: No, the most important thing these days is the background. Do not understand? Then I'll be straightforward, I want a father like Odis, oooooooh, or a husband too.
As more and more people pay attention to the lives of Odis and Alexandra, many netizens say that they really like Odis, a big silent and calm guy.
He is spoiled and reliable, strong and secure, and is simply jealous of Alexandria's goodness.
Especially the ladies, it is almost difficult to resist this charm.
The situation on the shore of the shallow sea, as one would guess, Odis woke up to see Qiao Qiqi lying on the surface of the sea, did not hesitate to also go over.
He seemed to think that the little polar bear was hungry, went over to lick a meal of each other's head and face, and then entered the hunting state, to catch the little bear beluga whale to eat.
Qiao Qixi's eyes drifted towards the side: coming?
Once again, Qiao Qixi regretted that he could not speak.
It's that what, after half a day of guarding here, he so wanted to spit out what's there.
The white whales in the sea are really getting less and less.
And each one is alert to death, no matter how to wander away from him.
Of course, because almost all the belugas in this area were whisked away by Odis, the belugas are not stupid.
Slowly, there is not a vigilance?
In other words, the little polar bear guarding here practicing hunting has a complicated mood at the moment, much like a girl treats her aunt, afraid that it will not come, but also afraid that it will come.
The nightmare of being chased and fed meat, how could the bear forget it?
In case Odis caught the beluga whale in the next second, it happened to be a chubby beluga…Qiao Qixi shuddered when he thought of this.
Thinking about it, he came up with a good way.
Odis hunting like ten to nine, the general opportunity, the other side easily will not get down.
Hee hee, Qiao Qixi laughed in his heart.
The next time, there is an 80% chance he will rush, so that it will not be the turn of Odis to strike.
But there is an aftermath to this!
Once the three times were over, Odis looked at him like he was looking at a shit-stirring stick.
"..."
This farce ended when the shit-stirrer tossed tired and finally stopped messing around and just quietly watched the strong man strike from the side.
What Qiao Qixi did not expect was that this next beluga whale would be their last meal on the shore.
It was like this, after eating and sleeping, when he went to the shore to study again, found that the white whale's trail all gone.
It seems that all beluga whales have returned to the deep sea in one day, returning to tranquillity in the lively shallow sea in the past.
Ah, this ...
Qiao Qixi was a little overwhelmed by the reaction.
It is very sudden.
What has happened???
Odis seemed to have expected this, he did not stay on this coast that had been inhabited for almost a month, found that the beluga whale group had left the shallow sea, also greeted the little polar bear to leave.
In order to avoid the bear not to leave with himself, Odis cleverly took the bear's favourite small yellow bucket.
Hold, hold the emperor to make the princes…?
Qiao Qixi's mind popped up a sentence, recently the brain always appear these strange things, was himself amused to tears, he trotted to keep up with the pace of Odis.
Compared with Otis who has no nostalgia for the 'Old Home', Qiao Qixi has a strong sense of belonging to this coast, and suddenly feels a little depressed when he wants to leave.
After all, it can stabilize who wants to be a wandering prodigal.
But maybe this is life. When I have food, I almost vomit, and when I have no food, I worry about where the next meal will be.
But as long as you are with Odis.
Qiao Qixi looked at Odis's huge and reliable back, and thought happily, nowhere seemed to be lonely.
The little polar bear ran up quickly and hit Odis's big butt with his own little butt.
Yoo-hoo! Brother –
He is looking forward to the future.
Under the collision of cute love, Odis turned his head and stared at the excited little bear, his eyes shining brightly.
It is better to stay away from each other.
The little polar bear, who has a lot of thoughts, ran happily to the front.
Of course Odis didn't want to sit down on him, but just chased him up and licked him.
Qiao Qixi took the opportunity to snatch back his own small yellow, wear it on his head, walking in the world, how cannot bring a three-tier head?
In case you step on a pit and fall down, you can still protect your brain!
Before he was hungry, the little polar bear kept such a mental head and counted him as the happiest along the way.
Odis is always the centre point. He quietly looks at the little polar bear exploring the surroundings with himself as the centre.
The terrain in the wilderness is not flat, occasionally need to climb, over the pit, drip water.
When he came across a relatively high rocky slope, Odis went up easily, looking back at the bear below and making a whistling whisper.
Qiao Qixi took a look at this height to know that he could not go up, he looked up and shook his head, no no, this place has to go around.
Standing on top and watching for a moment, Odis looked around quite blankly, and finally turned his eyes back to the bear.
He came down from the slope and re-climbed again, as if to say: it's easy, you see?
Qiao Qixi just wanted to say: look at your bear head.
There is no flat road under the sky?
Must challenge this rugged path!
Odis licked his mouth: "..."
He looked somewhat helpless after a standoff with the bear, and eventually came down the slope for the second time.
At this point, Qiao QiXi thought he had succeeded in his non-violent non-cooperation, but the next second, Odis, who came to him, opened his big mouth, bit his neck, yes, the whole neck, and brought it up the slope!
"Ow…"
The sudden shock, combined with the dull pain coming from the neck, made Qiao QiXi let out a piggy-barking sound.
It resounded through this peaceful earth.
Fortunately, this process is very short, it is only two seconds, Odis has successfully gripped it up, carefully placed on the flat ground.
The little polar bear crawling on the ground was crying and crying. He felt like his neck was broken.
The feeling of being caught in the neck and rising into the air is a bit too scary.
How to say he also has a small several hundred pounds, although for the 800 kilograms of Odis, like carrying a kitten as simple.
Qiao Qixi, who was shackled away by Otis for the first time, turned his neck in fear, and found that there was nothing wrong with him, so he put away his own face.
Odis walked tentatively two steps, turned his head and looked at the bear quietly, his eyes were doting and full of patience.
There is also the meaning of coaxing him to keep up.
Does Otis smell delicious?
Qiao Qixi got up from the ground and wiped Schrodinger's tears with his paws, aha, didn't expect it, he faked crying again.
Based on the two sides' understanding of each other, he suspected that Odis had found something delicious, otherwise he would not have taken him over the mountains with such a clear goal.
But the place was bare, and Qiao Qixi did not feel much expectation.
The little polar bear who followed Odis away from the coast and towards the land, has already made the intention of not eating for a week.
Living in the wild requires a sense of wild life. I want to eat a full meal every day. How about when I am a bear?
Two polar bears, one large and one small, walk slowly along the grassy slope.
Maybe they walked 50 kilometres, maybe they walked 80 kilometres, all in all they had to walk for about three days.
The drone didn't know where they were going and was a little worried about the future of these two little angels.
After three days of searching with Odis, a human wooden house appeared in Qiao Qixi's field of vision, which is the first time he saw a human building after returning to nature.
Qiao Qixi's first reaction was not surprise, but worry.
After all, Odis was shot and hospitalized and still vividly remembered, it was the cruel handwork of poachers.
But then again, Odis's sense of smell is so sensitive, he dared to come here, indicating that there is no trace of humans here.
Qiao Qixi froze.
No way, no way, Odis's target is this hut?
Qiao Qixi has a guilty conscience: My brother, the robbery started for at least three years, and we can't do whatever we want because we are bears. It's not good.
Suck slip.
But the fishy smell coming from inside, damn delicious.
