Speaker 3: On the vast icy plains of the Arctic tundra, the
Speaker 3: snow reflects the dim sunlight.

Speaker 3: Transu dotted among our numerous research tents, and in the distance,
Speaker 3: groups of common penguins shuttle across the snow.
Speaker 1: Liung Shi gu Chu Mamu sien Jing shin kusie Ya

Speaker 3: The Shinling liong is a scientist filled with a spirit
Speaker 3: of adventure, and he deeply loves the living creatures of nature.
Speaker 1: Sishu Tai Jung Jun Ju Yi yen ZiU Tiu the
Speaker 1: tien Siguil.
Speaker 3: At this moment, he is focused on studying the migration
Speaker 3: patterns of penguins.
Speaker 1: Liung bin Bugu Da Tadapongyeo Trin Shiling yue Yendiu.
Speaker 3: Yet Liong is not alone. His friend Schan is another researcher.
Speaker 1: Syen Singu Tienoi tan soung schilu ye Churie.
Speaker 3: Although he is forgetful, he is always eager to help.
Speaker 1: Hyome Dan di yenyo tur ye song hu yu fung

Speaker 3: There's also May, an indigenous Inuit who is smart and humorous,
Speaker 3: often assisting the research team in Polar Survival.
Speaker 1: Lean digemunsen shi Jesizi do hi yao ziet tame ru
Speaker 1: Hui de Lucie.
Speaker 3: One of Liang's dreams is to talk with these penguins
Speaker 3: to understand how they decide on their migration routes.
Speaker 1: Willi shisienji yea wa yan yeme jizi lu Tsi Chhan
Speaker 1: shou si siu an tame Languetamo du huy Ye.
Speaker 3: To achieve this liong tied letters to each penguin, hoping
Speaker 3: they would give him some kind of response.
Speaker 1: Tellend tish si ye do.
Speaker 3: But the problem is penguins can't read it all.
Speaker 1: Asie chun zun shupusa simba simbuan shushil zirku ye la
Speaker 1: lii ch'uan chauut ho s de jujat.
Speaker 3: Moreover, Chun always accidentally ties the letters to the wrong penguin,
Speaker 3: resulting in a series of bewildering chase.
Speaker 1: Scenes yuitie ya linsiito.
Speaker 3: One day, Leong had a sudden idea.
Speaker 1: Tatsi din palsi shu s gayunzien then the shien ha.
Speaker 3: He decided to abandon letters and used simple visual signals instead.
Speaker 1: Tayun jampumpo hujuga tatsi in tiktien yi the ti sito
Speaker 1: shitou yunji ti tonsil go to.
Speaker 3: He used tent fabric in bamboo poles to construct a
Speaker 3: simple semaphore system, attempting to communicate with the penguins through
Speaker 3: these flags.
Speaker 1: Jah tu ti la de champalfun si jambi poo chi
Speaker 1: la mandod Bifushie.
Speaker 3: However, a sudden blizzard cut off all communications, forcing Leong
Speaker 3: to take shelter with the penguins from the storm.
Speaker 1: Seyese don ju yung jinna an jinguan chat till jizien Hutu.
Speaker 3: In the snow cave, Leon could only quietly observe the
Speaker 3: interactions among the penguins.
Speaker 1: Pajui da till hu yun shinti ye lie del Huan
Speaker 1: sinci sing singo Juan dun topu Hui doun chiba hu
Speaker 1: ji jiunsi the pai chung yi Sie.
Speaker 3: He noticed that the penguins used body language to exchange information,
Speaker 3: gently shaking their heads, flapping their wings, or lining up
Speaker 3: neatly in a row dong.
Speaker 1: G jesie guen chayng ju yulis ye till de telshn ziaulo.
Speaker 3: Through these observations, Leong finally understood the penguin's silent communication
Speaker 3: don fuon.
Speaker 1: Sie ting chi Yao ma by sing jifa hu Yindi

Speaker 3: When the storm stopped, Liong returned to the camp full
Speaker 3: of new knowledge and shared his discoveries with Mae and.
Speaker 1: Chun Liuan de yen xiu Xi do la tu pu.
Speaker 3: Liang's research made a breakthrough Tapu.
Speaker 1: Jin jiungning La si di Dya shu hai gun jadsun

Speaker 3: He not only proved his hypothesis, but also gained a
Speaker 3: deeper respect for the silent language of nature.
Speaker 1: Jidn jing li Ya Lao min ba ying hud suwe

Speaker 3: This experience taught Liong that flexible thinking often surpasses rigid plans.
Speaker 1: Tati dien zaidh de yen jiu ju gungdo de yi

Speaker 3: He decided that in his future research he would rely
Speaker 3: more on intuition and observation rather than just written communication.
Speaker 1: Jen Longi yen chu juji and Sushi zepinyen jun Lisi

Speaker 3: Leong looked at the penguins gradually disappearing on the icy
Speaker 3: plains in the distance, feeling an immense sense of satisfaction.
