283. Chapter 283 It’s Really Big.
Chapter 283 It's so big, really so big
Earlier, Li Duoyu also wanted to come to Bird's Mouth Reef to get some seafood, because there are a lot of groupers and lobsters here.
But at that time, the relationship between the two villages was still bad, and Bird's Mouth Reef was close to Chenjia Village.
Xiasha Village did not allow them to go to Dongjia and Xijia, so Chenjia Village naturally could not let them come here.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Duoyu never came.
Now that the relationship between the two villages has reconciled, he is not afraid of being discovered and expelled by the fishermen of Chenjia Village.
Li Duoyu looked at the flowing water and the rough horse watch on his wrist.
It's late, I have to hurry to cast the net.
Before casting the net, Li Duoyu observed the surroundings of Bird's Mouth Reef. The reefs here are different from other places. Most of them are pillar-shaped.
In the previous life, I heard from the geographical experts who came to Dandan Island to investigate that Bird's Mouth Reef is not a natural island.
After putting the sticky net.
"Didn't you sleep in the morning?" Li Duoyu asked.
During the Chinese New Year, Chen Wenchao was very excited to see red and yellow sea fish, because these two colors of sea fish are the most expensive during the Chinese New Year.
After Li Duoyu caught lice for Erbaiwu, he sat at the stern and looked at the vast sea. He, who rarely smoked, suddenly smoked a cigarette.
In other words, it would take more than three hours before the time to collect the nets. During this period, all they could do was wait.
Chen Wenchao slept even more soundly than him and could not be woken up by the sound of firecrackers.
"Hurry up and go to sleep. You will be responsible for pulling the net later. And dry your hair."
"Go back. Next time, ask your parents to come together."
In fact, it is not only Old Tang in the village who likes to tell stories about his youth. Zhang Jinsha and Shitou, a group of fishermen, are also talkative when they are old.
It was already evening.
Chen Wenchao, who was pulling the sticky net, suddenly shouted excitedly: "Brother Yu, there is a big sea bream weighing more than ten kilograms."
This thing is really annoying. It is so far away from the island, but I didn't expect that I could still find it accurately.
After hearing this.
After Chen Wenchao wiped it dry, the two began to put the sticky net. The one-kilometer sticky net was directly put around the Bird's Mouth Reef for most of the circle.
Li Duoyu thought it was a small rippled green dragon, but after a closer look, he found that it was not, but a Chinese lobster.
Maybe it was really boring, Li Duoyu directly put it down and helped it pick up the lice on its body.
After taking the crayfish off the sticky net, Li Duoyu threw it back into the sea on the spot.
There are also many brightly colored sea fish, and an octopus hiding in a snail shell, which excited him the most.
And since then, the people of Chenjia Village have been very taboo about the sea area of Bird's Mouth Reef, and even the people of Xiasha Village regard Bird's Mouth Reef as a vicious place.
However, it was destined to be difficult to pull the net today. The net got stuck at the bottom just as it started. It took a long time to pull up the first net.
And this kind of lobster can grow very large, with slightly red tentacles, which are often much longer than the body of the lobster.
Li Duoyu loves and hates this place. He loves that there are good things here, but hates that if he casts a net here, he may even lose the net.
"After I got pregnant, there was no more."
If he hadn't been bragging day after day and year after year, Li Duoyu would not have known that there was a bird's mouth reef near Dandan Island.
He has been in this world for more than a year, and he is about to celebrate his second Spring Festival.
Chen Wenchao suddenly pulled his head out of the water.
There used to be a lot of this kind of lobster in Hong Kong. Some fishermen caught one weighing ten kilograms, and said that the tentacles were more than half a meter long.
After Chen Wenchao dried his hair, he lay on the deck and fell asleep.
But there would be no fishermen coming to this place. Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao stared at each other, not knowing what to do. Fortunately, there was a dog.
The sea surface was surging, and then a black shark fin appeared on the sea surface.
Li Duoyu was so familiar with the Bird's Mouth Reef thanks to Old Tang who liked to brag about the past.
There was no place for them to rest nearby, so Li Duoyu tied a boat rope to the bird's mouth exposed on the Bird's Mouth Reef to prevent the sampan from being carried away by the current.
When the sun was setting, Chen Wenchao, who felt a little cold, shivered twice and then woke up.
Seeing that Chen Wenchao was about to catch it, Li Duoyu hurriedly shouted: "Don't touch it, stone fish."
Li Duoyu glanced at his watch. It was about two o'clock now, and the low tide was about five o'clock today.
It was also a story for a story.
Chen Wenchao wiped his head twice and felt something was wrong. He smelled the towel and it seemed to have a strange smell, a little smelly, but also a milky smell.
For a while, the people of Chenjia Village thought they had offended the Dragon King, and held large-scale sea sacrifices for several consecutive years.
If you smoke slowly, the wind will smoke for you.
Unfortunately, when Li Duoyu returned to China in his previous life, the lobsters in Hong Kong had already been caught, and he had never caught a single one.
He liked to tell stories about his youth all day long, especially where he caught how big a fish he had caught, where his net burst, and how many valuable seafood he had caught.
As long as he was not on the fishing raft, the idiot was very excited and kept running around Li Duoyu.
Li Duoyu was stunned for a few seconds. Although it was just a simple sentence, the amount of information seemed a bit large.
As a result, the whole net was torn into pieces, and no fish was caught, only a few groupers were eaten with only half of their bodies left.
It was estimated that there was a problem with the eel feed last night, which caused him too much pressure, which made him sleep poorly.
When the idiot on the sampan saw the thing, he barked and barked non-stop, looking like he hated sharks.
After arriving at this magical place, Chen Wenchao held his breath, put his whole face directly into the sea water, and looked at it with wide eyes.
It was a pity that there was no fishing boat around, otherwise we could set up a game, play 80 points, and kill time.
After Li Duoyu finished speaking, he handed over a towel: "Hurry up and wipe it off. Being young is brave. You dare to stick your head into the sea in the middle of winter. Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"
"Brother Yu, what did you use this towel for before?"
"Okay."
Chen Wenchao was 100% sure that it was a big lobster. At the same time, he also found a big shark with a black fin on the top and a white body, moving around in the reef area.
This kind of lobster is different from the corrugated lobster. The color is slightly red. It is generally called the local lobster on Dandan Island.
Chen Wenchao's hair stood on end. He thought the black thing was some garbage and was about to clean it up, but it turned out to be a stonefish.
"Fuck, this shark is so fierce."
The sea water is very clear and looks very deep, but in some places, you can see the bottom directly.
Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly: "As for this towel, you will probably know it in a few months. It's good to have a towel, but you are still picky. Dry your hair quickly and don't catch a cold."
It is said that the disaster directly reduced the population of Chenjia Village by half, and the people of Chenjia Village also saw black smoke rising into the sky from the direction of the Bird's Mouth Reef.
The geologist's speculation is similar to the record in Chenjia Village's "Village Chronicle".
The next second.
During the Wanli period, a major earthquake occurred in the sea area near Dandan Island, which triggered a tsunami. According to the village chronicles of Chenjia Village:
[On the ninth day of the eleventh month, there was a major earthquake, and the waves were three or four feet high. Wherever it was affected, houses and trees collapsed, and more than a hundred people were injured.]
Of course, Li Duoyu, who had no fishing to tell, also loved to tell them about the story of his battle of wits and courage with the island police when he was working illegally.
Chen Wenchao quickly put on gloves: "Brother Yu, I'll pull it today."
"Let's see if you dare to stick your head into the sea at any time in the future."
Li Duoyu planned to go to the places mentioned by these people to fish after getting the fishing boat, to verify how many of them were bragging back then.
Chen Wenchao scratched his head and said: "Brother Yu, is it time to close the net?"
After all, he had a twenty-year window period when he went abroad to work illegally. When he returned to China, fishermen rarely went out to sea to fish, and fishing boats were lying in the fishing port to receive subsidies.
Even if this real snapper is not sold to a big hotel, it can be sold for 40-50 cents per pound, which means 8-9 yuan per piece. If you catch dozens of them, you will be rich today.
"So amazing, it seems that your Xiaolan has fed you a lot of supplements recently."
He saw two very long tentacles swaying in a gap in the reef. Judging from the length of the tentacles.
This kind of fish is one of the seafood that fishermen hate the most. It looks like a stone and likes to hide in the reef area.
Although it was getting dark, Li Duoyu found that there was a black and ugly "stone" next to the real snapper.
While Li Duoyu was catching lice, Chen Wenchao, who was sitting on the sampan, kept fighting with his eyelids. He closed his eyes and slept for a while from time to time, and then suddenly woke up.
The sea breeze was blowing slowly.
The shark seemed to have discovered Chen Wenchao and swam towards him quickly.
Chen Wenchao nodded: "The firecrackers were too loud, I couldn't fall asleep."
It is very likely that it was a volcanic reef formed by a volcanic eruption. Deep in the sea, it is very likely to be an active volcano.
"Yeah." Li Duoyu nodded.
Fortunately, the second net was better and no longer stuck on the reef. First, a fist-sized lobster was caught.
The biggest problem with the bird's mouth reef is that the reef is too sharp and it is very easy to get stuck on the net. Often a good net is put down and the net breaks out of the water.
Sometimes, after the tide recedes, it will remain in the puddle in the reef area. There was a fisherwoman in the village who accidentally stepped on this stone fish barefoot and almost broke her whole foot.
"Be careful, you know, there are a lot of poisonous things here, maybe there are mud monsters and lionfish."
Chen Wenchao nodded, but after a while, his eyes widened and he stuttered when he spoke: "Brother Fish, it's so big, really big."
