Chapter 283 Still Alive
"What is Dawangyou?"
The two brothers didn't understand, so they looked at Ye Yaodong, waiting for him to explain.
"Perhaps you can understand it as a giant yuyu. The frequently swaying tentacles are quite similar to the yuyu's whiskers."
"Is it possible that squid is also possible?"
"The giant squid also refers to the giant squid. There is squid in the name of the giant squid, but it is not a squid, but a type of squid. As for the giant squid, there is one called the giant squid, which lives in the Antarctic. There is nothing like it anywhere else, especially this King."
The two brothers were a little confused. Dongzi seemed to know a lot?
"Then it's so big, so it should be very valuable, right?"
"It must be very valuable. Who has ever seen such a big squid or octopus? It's just like the oarfish Dongzi caught before. Who has ever seen such a big hairtail?"
The more the two brothers discussed, the hotter their hearts became. When they remembered that Dongzi's oarfish sold for 800 yuan, their eyes lit up when they looked at the sea.
Ye Yaodong explained: "Oarfish and hairtail are also different. They are two species."
"They look almost the same! Just one is bigger and the other is smaller."
He didn't bother to correct him. We were all fishermen, not academics. To them, everything was the same, as long as we could sell it at a good price.
"The tide is receding little by little, but I don't seem to see the waves moving the big guy forward. Aren't the waves pretty big today?"
"Is it possible that the octopus or squid is too big and heavy, and the tentacles are moving around, and the waves can't carry it?"
"It's also possible. Let's just wait and see. We have to wait until the tide recedes."
"Well, if you retreat, you should be able to get it, right?"
"Let's take a look first."
The three brothers have been standing here all morning. Sister-in-law Ye and Second Sister-in-law Ye have been having conflicts with the men in the family these days. They are in the middle of a cold war. They ignore them and let them blow the cold wind as if they are dead. They don't even go up to ask them what they are doing. .
I was even more embarrassed to come and ask Lin Xiuqing. I always felt that after suffering a big loss by not listening to others, I would feel a little uncomfortable in front of her alone. There have been a lot of conflicts at home recently, and I felt like I was being laughed at.
Lin Xiuqing had been sitting in front of the window with her chin propped up and watching.
Several children had money and firecrackers in their pockets and disappeared long after eating.
She thought for a while and sent a pot of hot tea over, so that she wouldn't have to stand there waiting and talk while being thirsty, and take a look at where the tide had receded.
Seeing how considerate she was, Ye Yaodong felt warm in his heart, "Why didn't you listen when I asked you not to come out for a breeze? We will go in and drink water ourselves when we are thirsty."
"I'm also curious where the tide goes out and whether that thing in the sea has been washed in."
"No, apart from the fact that the tide has receded a little, the giant octopus or giant squid is still in place and has not been washed in by the waves."
"I wonder if it will be enough when the tide goes out? I've never seen such a big person before..."
"There is everything in the sea. It's not unusual. No matter how big it is, it may be there. It's just that most people can't see it."
"Would you like to take turns watching the tide? You don't have to stand together to blow the cold wind." She saw that the elder brother Ye and the second brother were both shrinking their necks, putting their hands in their sleeves, and their hair was blown up, revealing their broad shoulders. forehead. ….
Ye Yaodong also looked at the two people who were huddled in a circle, "Why don't you go back to the house to tie a scarf, put on a hat and gloves, and come out later?"
"also."
The two of them wore cotton-padded jackets. The wind on the shore was stronger than at the door of their house. After all, the house faced north and south, and there was a house blocking the wind when sitting at the door. They didn't feel how cold it was. But it was really cold when they came out to the shore.
Not long after they entered, they came out fully armed and asked Ye Yaodong to go in and rest.
Ye Yaodong looked at his wife who was still standing beside him, and went in with her first, as long as there were people watching so that no one could get in first.
For half a morning, the three brothers took turns coming in and out. Later, even Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye knew that there was a big guy on the sea, and they were waiting for the tide to go out.
The two of them were also excited and kept running to the shore to watch, thinking that if they could get it back and sell it for a few hundred yuan like the oarfish, the family would be able to alleviate the loss by sharing a little bit.
Sister-in-law Ye said excitedly at the side: "Can't we go down now? The tide has receded a bit."
"Just wait here. We haven't retreated to the end. We are waiting here just like in front of the station." Ye Yaodong said and looked around. No one really came to the beach today.
The weather is bad and no one comes to blow the wind.
In everyone's expectation, the tide receded little by little, and they walked to the beach and followed the tide to the lowest point.
After walking for nearly a hundred meters, we were not far away from the big guy. Looking closer, we could see that its tentacles were getting thicker. From time to time, they would raise them up and slap the sea surface, causing large splashes of water.
When they reached the lowest point of the current tide, probably only a few dozen meters away from the big guy, they could barely see the behemoth in the sea.
The main thing is to roughly see its huge white oval body that is slightly exposed on the water.
"Damn it, it's really King You, not a giant octopus!" Ye Yaodong looked at its body from a distance and recognized it.
It may be that the tide has been receding and the tide is getting shallower. Its huge body has been stranded in the water early, so it cannot move forward with the wash of the tide and can only use its tentacles to struggle.
Because the tide was too shallow and its body was too big, half of it was lying on the sea surface, so they could barely recognize it even from a distance of forty or fifty meters.
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye, who had been following me, were both excited, "Wow, is it really a yuyu? Is there really such a big yuyu?"
"What is Dawangyu? Is it just a giant yuyu? This one is so big. Oh my God, I have never seen such a big yuyu. Let's move forward..."
Lin Xiuqing also followed, looking with excitement on her face, "A Dong, tell me, what is a big king fish? What a surprise, it's really a big king fish. It's too big, it feels like a fish when you look at it. It’s several meters long, and we’ve never seen such a big squid here, it’s so strange.”
"What is a giant squid? A giant squid is actually a giant squid. Some people call it a giant squid. The only difference between this thing and an ordinary squid is the head. The species is the same."
The king squid is also called the "big king squid".
In fact, there is a difference between squid and cuttlefish. As far as the average-sized squid and cuttlefish are concerned, they are very similar in appearance, but they are obviously different. ….
The body of the squid is long and narrow, a bit like the head of a javelin, so it is also called the squid. The tentacles of the yuyu are not as long as those of the squid, and they cannot all be retracted into the body, and the squid has hard bones.
"Then it's a yuyu? The king of yuyu?"
"almost."
Second Sister-in-law Ye added excitedly: "It's just like the imperial hairtail is the emperor among hairtails!"
Uh... If you want to understand it this way, then let's understand it this way, but hairtail and oarfish are really not the same species...
[By the way, a, a, .uanyuana. are currently the best ones for reading and listening to books. 】
No more explanation!
Several people walked forward as the tide receded. They were all amazed and talking about how tall this giant fish was.
"This big yuyu should be worth a few hundred yuan, right? It's so big, it makes you rich..." Sister-in-law Ye said with a smile on her face.
Sister-in-law Ye also smiled from ear to ear and echoed: "It can definitely be sold for a few hundred yuan. Who has seen such a big man? The old lady must have never seen it after such a long time."
"It's too early to say, let's wait until we get closer before we tell how big it is." Although Brother Ye said it conservatively, the excitement in his eyes and the corners of his mouth that almost reached behind his ears betrayed the insincerity of his words.
As they got closer and closer, it was estimated that the tide had receded to the bottom, and they were only about five or six meters away from the giant river.
I saw a huge white body half stranded on the beach, with the shallow water floating back and forth, tentacles entangled together, and the suckers on it densely packed, clearly visible from a distance. It was really too big.
And it seemed to still have the breath of life, and it could occasionally swing its tentacles, but it was no longer like the long whip they could see on the shore at the beginning.
Ye Yaodong told the three women to stand where they were and not go any further. If the vitality was still strong, you could fly out with a flick of the tentacles.
"It looks like it's almost out of breath, right? It just swung a little bit."
"It is probably dying. It is so big and there is too little water here."
"It's hard to tell. The three of me can just go up and take a look. If something is wrong, we can run away quickly."
Lin Xiuqing nodded, "Then be careful."
"Um."
As Ye Yaodong spoke, he took off his shoes and socks, pulled up his trousers, and followed his two brothers as they poured forward.
The wind was biting and the sea water was biting, but the hearts of the three of them were burning.
When the water reached their knees, they also walked up to this huge squid. This huge size was even more shocking when viewed up close.
Sizzling squid is an indispensable food at night market food stalls. The common squid is 20-30 centimeters in diameter, which is not enough to eat in one skewer. But when you put this giant squid next to it, it is not even as big as its eyeballs.
"My dear... this must be three or four meters high? No wonder the sea water can't wash in at this position. This must weigh hundreds of kilograms! Oh my God..." Brother Ye came closer and saw clearly the huge length of the river. After seeing the size of the fish, I couldn’t help but be speechless.
Brother Ye was also surprised and happy, with a look of shock on his face, "Is there really such a big squid? Weird things happen every year, especially this year. Rare things only appeared in the past few years, but they have always appeared frequently in the past six months. Weird thing."
Brother Ye nodded in agreement after hearing this, "Yes, yes, there are too many strange things happening this year, and there are many big fish. The sardine storm, many people in the village made a lot of money, and everyone went fishing this year. It’s better than in previous years.”
"Mazu bless you..."
As the two brothers talked, they circled around the big king, rubbing their hands together excitedly.
Suddenly, one of its tentacles swung and hit Ye Yaopeng directly on the back. Ye Yaopeng was unprepared and was whipped. He leaned forward, staggered, and held his hands in the water. Only then did he stabilize his body.
"Huh? Is it still alive?".
