The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded Chapter 229

  Chapter 229 The geomantic treasure of the little sea lion

  'Hey, little sea lion? '

  Chu Mingcheng, who had just hit a parrotfish, noticed a large creature approaching out of the corner of his eye. When he turned his head, he didn't expect it to be a sea lion.

  The sea lion is very similar to the one he rescued before, but it has grown a lot in a few months, so he is not sure for a while.

  But the next moment, he confirmed it.

  Because the sea lion came up close and interacted with him.

  Chu Mingcheng showed a smile on his face, but luckily it is fine.

  If it really disappeared, he would feel somewhat regretful.

  After a long time no see, the little sea lion still remembered him, so he handed over the parrotfish he just shot, as if it still remembered his reward.

  The little sea lion was also polite, grabbed the fish with his claws, and gnawed it directly.

  Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng swam to the surface of the water, wanting to tell Jiang Luoluo the good news, but the little sea lion followed while nibbling on the fish.

   "Lolo, come out quickly."

"What's wrong?"

"look."

  Chu Mingcheng pointed to the little sea lion, and Jiang Luoluo was surprised when he found it.

   "Little sea lion, it's still there!"

   "Well, I should have run away, so I came back so late."

   While the two were talking, the little sea lion also finished eating the fish.

   The fish that Chu Mingcheng hit was not big, only about three catties, and it ate quite quickly.

  If it is an adult sea lion, it is estimated that it will be swallowed directly.

  After eating the fish, the little sea lion did not jump into the boat as before, but barked twice in front of him, and then swam away.

  Chu Mingcheng thought it was about to leave, but when it turned around, it realized that it hadn't followed, so it ran over and yelled again.

  He and Jiang Luoluo on the boat understood this behavior immediately, which meant to let them follow.

  Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng boarded the boat first, and dried the diving suit with a towel.

  Jiang Luoluo has started the fishing boat and followed the little sea lion.

   "Are sea lions so smart that they can lead the way?"

   "I don't know, but the IQ of mammals is generally not too low!"

   "Do you think the little sea lion found some treasure, and this will lead us to find the treasure?"

   "Is this impossible? How could it know the meaning of the treasure? At most, it would just catch a fish for us."

  Chu Mingcheng couldn't laugh or cry at Jiang Luoluo's thinking, but he didn't think that the little sea lion took them to find the treasure.

   But they couldn't figure out why, so they just followed along to see what it meant.

   This one took a lot of time, and Jiang Luoluo even made dinner.

   And only now did Chu Mingcheng know the purpose of the little sea lions, which was to invite them to his new home!

  Looking at the small island in front of him and the little sea lion parked in front of the island, he felt that he had guessed its purpose.

  Obviously, the little sea lion left the previous isolated island and came to live on the isolated island in front of him.

  Or it may move back and forth between the two islands. After all, this side is quite far away, but the little sea lion appeared there again today. Chu Mingcheng didn't think the sound of the fishing boat could travel so far.

   After it brought the two of them here, it ignored them, jumped on the boat, and came to rest on the deck.

  Therefore, Chu Mingcheng did not intend to take a bath and change clothes, but went back to the cockpit to eat, and then went to explore the resources near Xiadao in the evening.

   But the little sea lion can change places. He estimates that the resources here should be better than the isolated island on the other side.

   After dinner, after resting to digest food, Chu Mingcheng took a fishing boat around the island.

   It turns out that the shape of the island is crescent-shaped, and there is a long sandy beach in the inner bay.

  There is a coral group on the back, no wonder the little sea lions live here, this kind of terrain can tell you that the resources are incredible!

   "Acheng, let's buy a drone when we go back. We can just use the drone to see the terrain in the future. It is not only troublesome to sail, but also consumes fuel." Jiang Luoluo suggested.

  Chu Mingcheng slapped himself on the head immediately when he heard the words: "Why did you forget about the drone, this thing will be very useful for going to sea in the future."

  Jiang Luoluo laughed: "I wanted to buy the drone when Grandpa used it before, but I forgot about it later. This time, we both remember it together and remind each other when we go back."

   "Okay." Chu Mingcheng nodded, and went to take out the diving flashlight, "You stay on the boat, and I will go to observe the situation at the bottom of the water. If the resources are good, I will come here more in the future."

   "Well, you go, pay attention to safety."

   Then Chu Mingcheng took a speargun and a flashlight and entered the water again.

  The little sea lion was originally lying on the deck, apparently planning to rest in the cockpit at night.

   But when Chu Mingcheng was launched into the water, it immediately got up and followed.

   Ignoring the little sea lion behind him, he turned on the flashlight and dived to the bottom, and turned on the fish gathering function by the way.

  If any valuable aquatic products come over, he doesn't mind taking them away.

  The boat stopped at the Neiwan side. As soon as Chu Mingcheng entered the water, he could see the sand bed at the bottom of the water.

  The water depth at the current position is 37 meters, which is displayed on the dive watch.

  He started to move towards the island, and when he came to a depth of 15 meters, he found that there were many small caves on the sand bed that he was familiar with. If there was no accident, there might be Banqin Shrimp in these caves.

  Chu Mingcheng stopped, immediately turned off the fish-gathering function, and hurried back to the side of the boat to ask Jiang Luoluo to bring over the sea catching pliers.

   With such a good opportunity, wouldn't he be sorry for himself if he didn't make a batch of shrimp girls at night.

   "What did you find, you want this pliers?" Jiang Luoluo asked curiously.

  "I found a lot of caves of Banqin Shrimp, and I plan to catch more."

   "Hey, it turned out to be Aunt Banqin Shrimp. This one is good, and the price is expensive. But you only use this pliers, are you sure you can catch it?"

   "It's simple, put some snail meat at the mouth of the cave to attract them out, it's very simple."

   "It's best if you have a way. But I haven't eaten this kind of prawns for a long time, why don't you get a few of them first, and I can make raw pickles for supper at night?"

"Row."

  Looking at Jiang Luoluo who was about to drool, Chu Mingcheng laughed dumbfounded, and immediately responded.

  I didn't bring a plastic bottle today. If there is no accident, this group of banyan shrimp girls will fight in the net bag, and then there will naturally be raw pickled raw materials.

   Then he drove the little sea lion to the boat and asked Jiang Luoluo to close the door so that he wouldn't get in the way if he followed him.

  Chu Mingcheng returned to the place just now, turned on the function of gathering fish, and at the same time quietly floated in the water, waiting for the attracted Xiagu to come to the door automatically.

   Each of the small caves will not be very close together, but the area covered by Chuming City has a diameter of 26 meters. There are not many caves within this range, so the 13% chance is still easy to trigger.

   Sure enough, as he expected, after only a short while, he noticed the movement.

  A giant shrimp, almost as long as his forearm, slowly crawled over on the sandy ground.

   What surprised him even more was that it was not the Banqin Shrimp, but the Fortune Shrimp—Mantis Spinosaurus.

  The price of this kind of shrimp is more expensive than that of Banqin shrimp, and it is only produced in the southern part of the Baodao Strait and the South China Sea islands.

  They only survive by digging caves in the sandy land of the inner bay, and the terrain here just meets this condition.

  Chu Mingcheng never expected that the little sea lion would bring him to such a place of treasure.

  Although mantis shrimps with spinous processes are also very fierce, they generally don't fight with their own kind compared to the grouper shrimps, which allows him to store them better.

   After a short while, this forearm-sized Fugui Shrimp came to him.

   At the same time, Chu Mingcheng also found two other ones, but they were not as big as the one in front of him.

   Only the big ones can be sold more expensively, and the price difference of the smaller ones is huge, so there is no need for him to grab the smaller ones.

  Catching the sea pliers immediately caught this particularly large Fugui shrimp.

  The Fugui Shrimp struggled immediately, and then scared away the two Fugui Shrimp that followed, and its strength was not small.

  But Chu Mingcheng's current physical fitness has basically reached the top level compared with domestic athletes.

   Handling this little Fugui shrimp is naturally easy.

  Opening the net bag and putting the rich shrimp in it, Chu Mingcheng left here and changed his position.

   It's really cool after level 10 or above in the Boutique Aquatic Illustrated Book. These creatures that were troublesome to catch are now easier than catching fish.

  Every time you come to a location, there will basically be Fugui Shrimp. If there are few, one or two, if there are many, it can even reach five or six.

  And he can return to the original position and repeat brushing until all the rich shrimps in this area are caught.

  There are so many rich shrimps here, but Chu Mingcheng is also very picky. He only grabs the big ones, but he doesn't want any smaller ones.

  Although grabbing more points can increase the experience value of some high-quality aquatic products, the aquatic product illustration book has the function of speeding up the reproduction and growth.

  The lifespan of these rich shrimps is only two or three years, and the speed of reproduction and growth is very fast. He keeps the slightly smaller ones and can harvest them every once in a while.

  Chu Mingcheng can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.

   After an hour, his big net bag was almost full.

  Chu Mingcheng reckoned that he caught more than 30 of them, each about the size of a forearm, and the weight of one should be about one catty.

   The male and the female didn't pay special attention, and the price gap between the two reached almost one hundred yuan.

   But taking an intermediate value, a catty is also 350 yuan, and he caught more than 30 catties, and the income for this hour has reached a little over 10,000 based on 30 catties.

   It's like picking up money at the bottom of the sea!

  Chu Mingcheng turned off the fish-gathering function, then returned to the side of the boat and shouted: "Lolo!"

  The next moment, Jiang Luoluo, who was studying the next dance in the cockpit, ran out immediately: "How much did you catch?"

  Chu Mingcheng raised the net bag with a little embarrassment on his face: "A net bag full, it's amazing!"

   "So many?" Jiang Luoluo's eyes widened, looking surprised.

Immediately, she took the net bag, opened it and looked at it, and found that the rich shrimps inside were all super-large individuals, and couldn't help but take a deep breath: "They are all so big, but they are still rich shrimps, the resources here are too exaggerated, right? "

   "I think those shops that sell Fugui shrimp can't take out so much at one time, can they?"

  Chu Mingcheng explained with a smile when he heard the words: "It's not that they can't afford it, the main reason is that it's expensive, and most people are reluctant to eat it. They are afraid that they won't be able to sell it, so they buy less."

   "After all, the price of dead will drop a lot. If you buy too much and can't sell it, and if you can't keep it and die, they will lose a lot."

  Jiang Luoluo nodded, knowing that what he said was the truth.

   Thinking of making raw pickles at night, she asked again: "How many do you want to eat?"

  Chu Mingcheng pondered for a while, and said: "One of these is about a catty. I can eat two. I need one male and one female."

   "OK, I'm going to marinate now." Jiang Luoluo first added seawater to the fish box, and then poured all the shrimps into it to add oxygen.

  The little sea lion looked over curiously, and when he saw the food, he seemed to want to eat some, but she slapped him on the head, screaming aggrievedly.

   "Don't eat this thing without a few taels of meat, I'll give you some fish!" Jiang Luoluo put the lid on first, and then handed it two small yellow croakers that she had caught in the afternoon.

  The little sea lion was not picky about food, and immediately opened his mouth to catch the two fish.

   As a result, the mouth was too big, and the two small yellow croakers slid down without any fishy taste at all.

   So it froze for a few seconds, then begged for food again.

  An adult sea lion can eat 40 kilograms of fish a day. Although the baby sea lion is not yet fully grown, its food intake is definitely not small.

   How could two small yellow croakers satisfy its appetite.

  Jiang Luoluo was a little helpless. She didn't catch many fish today. Chu Mingcheng's harvest was indeed quite large, but she couldn't bear to give the little sea lion a fish of 121 catties.

   "Lolo, open the door and let it hunt by itself. I'll also drop by to see if there are any fish. Then I'll get a big one to feed it."

  Chu Mingcheng also noticed her helpless expression, so he smiled.

  Jiang Luoluo came over to open the small door of the boat when he heard the words, and the little sea lion crawled over immediately after seeing it, and jumped into the water.

  It poked its head out to look at the two of them, then dived into the water to find its prey.

  Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng also dived down, and followed behind the little sea lion.

  Although the little sea lion is a marine creature, his current speed is much faster than when he first got to swim freely, because his physical fitness has changed a lot faster, so he can easily keep up.

  The purpose of following the little sea lion was naturally to know where it was hunting.

  Chu Mingcheng will not hunt too much fish here, lest the little sea lions have nothing to eat.

   But when he encounters a particularly rare fish, he will definitely not let it go.

  He thought the little sea lion would go to the coral reef on the other side of the island, but instead it ran to an open place.

  After swimming about five or six hundred meters, he found a group of pike squid, also called pike squid, in the middle and upper layers of the sea.

   This kind of calamari is not small, much larger than the small squid he caught before.

  Chu Mingcheng estimated the size of the largest among them, and he thought it should be 40 to 50 centimeters.

   Their tentacles are very short, which is different from other squids, and they don't have two particularly long tentacles.

   This also causes their bodies to look quite big, and it feels delicious.

  The little sea lion couldn't wait to rush over, and easily caught a pike squid and gnawed on it.

  Chu Mingcheng also likes to eat squid, let alone this kind of top-quality calamari.

   Judging from the actions of the little sea lions just now, this group of calamari is quite easy to catch.

  So he also rushed up and caught one with his explosive speed.

  After being caught, the color of the squid's body suddenly became transparent, and at the same time, a large cloud of ink was sprayed out of its mouth.

   But it was of no use to Chu Mingcheng, he grabbed it and kept shaking it to make it spray more ink.

   At the same time, his feet were not idle, and he left the spot with two light kicks.

   Then, without waiting for all the ink to be sprayed out, he stuffed it into the net pocket and let it spray slowly inside.
