The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded Chapter 236

  Chapter 236 Tridacna shell

  Back to the entrance of the coral cave, Chu Mingcheng turned on the flashlight and shone inside.

  There are many poisonous things on the seabed, and he is most afraid of sea snakes.

   It's just that when encountering it in normal times, the sea snake will run away first, and he doesn't need to pay more attention.

  But if there is a sea snake in the small space of Coral Cave, he will be unable to hide if he enters it rashly.

  Chu Mingcheng originally thought that the coral cave would be a long tunnel like the caves he usually encountered.

   Unexpectedly, the inside is not what he thought, but a huge space of about 50 square meters.

  He used a flashlight to observe the entire interior, and saw many swimming fish, crabs crawling on the ground, and a huge giant clam.

   As for giant clam, Chu Ming is not interested in the shell, mainly because it is a national first-class protected animal, which can be punished and sentenced.

  Speaking of giant clams, most people have the impression that they should be produced in the South China Sea, but in fact there are also treasure island waters.

  So, the country should hold such a sea area with such good resources in its own hands.

  Chu Mingcheng heard that there will be drills this year, and he is looking forward to whether he can open up the sea in the east of Baodao, so that he does not need to go to Dongsha to try his luck in tuna fishing in the future, but can directly go to the east of Baodao to find bluefin tuna.

   But then again, the appearance of giant clams in this water area surprised Chu Mingcheng.

  Just looking at the entrance of the cave, this giant clam is very large, and it feels like it has a diameter of seventy or eighty centimeters.

  Although it is not as exaggerated as exceeding one meter, it is not small.

  Chu Mingcheng repeatedly confirmed that there was no danger near the entrance of the cave, and then slowly swam in.

  Looking at the entrance of the cave, I feel that the space inside is quite large.

   But after entering, it will feel a little cramped.

  Because of his appearance, some swimming fish in the cave became very flustered, and some ran out of the cave directly.

   Chu Mingcheng doesn't care about these small fish, he is looking for sea snakes and some large fish hiding in the corner.

  This cave is a natural protection place at first glance. Like a sunken ship, it will be a gathering area that fish like very much.

  Chu Mingcheng's flashlight just shone down, and found a huge dragon eel, also called leopard-printed eel, at the lower left of the cave entrance.

  It is a kind of moray eel, mainly because it has two small erected horns above its eyes, so it is called dragon eel.

  He ignored this guy for the time being. He had to ensure that there were no creatures that were dangerous to him in the cave before he could go hunting with confidence.

   Then he continued to hold the flashlight and observed the entire cave.

  None of the sea snakes were found, and the only highly poisonous things were two lionfish.

  But lionfish meat is delicious and can be sold for 100 yuan a catty, and it can also be hunted.

  However, he did not carelessly, but continued to observe a circle, and after confirming that the cave was relatively safe, he came to the giant clam.

  In the entire cave, there is no observation on the side of Tridacna.

  Just getting closer, Chu Mingcheng felt a little suspicious.

   There are a lot of seaweed on the surface of this clam, which is red in color. The shell is opened, and the meat inside has long since disappeared, leaving only a milky white shell.

  And Chu Mingcheng has never found a sea snake, but there is one hidden here.

  The sea snake is very thin, like a thin rope, but no one will underestimate it.

   It's just not supposed to. Although sea snakes live in water, they also use their lungs to breathe.

   can stay in sea water for a long time, but they still need to swim to the surface to breathe.

  Looking at it this way, his ability to swim freely is somewhat similar to that of a sea snake.

  Chuming City just started to guard against sea snakes, but it was only guarding against sea snakes swimming and hunting inside.

   And this sea snake doesn't know whether it regards the shell as a temporary resting place or its own home. If it is a home, it would be a bit strange.

   Of course, that's not the point.

  The point is that through the flashlight, he found that the inside of the shell was as smooth as jade, and that kind of polish was almost the same as the suet jade given to Jiang Luoluo.

   This giant clam shell is not a treasure, is it?

   Chu Mingcheng, who didn't know much about giant clams, had some doubts in his heart, but he still didn't rashly touch the giant clams' shells.

   Leaving aside the fact that there are sea snakes inside, if the shells of giant clams are also restricted and cannot move, it will be a huge trouble for him to take them back.

  In this era of technology, it is best not to do sneaky things.

  If you want to check, you will definitely be found. If you can't find out, there may be something else hidden.

  However, there are many valuable fish in the cave, and he can't worry about sweeping them with this sea snake.

  Only a spear and a spear gun on his body, these two things are easy to damage the shells of giant clams, so Chu Mingcheng had to go back to the boat first.

  Jiang Luoluo saw him coming back, and asked curiously, "Ah Cheng, what's in that cave?"

   "I found a huge clam shell, and there are a lot of valuable seafood. Some seafood is easy to catch with sea pliers. I'll get the tools when I come back."

  Chu Mingcheng did not say that there were sea snakes inside, lest she worry.

  Jiang Luoluo originally thought there was something special in the cave, but it turned out that there were only some aquatic creatures, so he lost interest immediately.

   Their house is not big enough, and there is no big fish tank, and giant clam shells are useless in her opinion.

  Chu Mingcheng took the sea pliers and returned to the cave. Seeing that the sea snake was still in the giant clam shell, he clamped its neck with the sea pliers at about seven inches.

  The sea snake caught in the gate of life could not resist at all, Chu Mingcheng swam out of the cave directly, found a rock at the bottom of the water, and smashed the sea snake to death.

  This coral reef is his hunting place before the fishing ban. If dangerous creatures like sea snakes are found, it is better to kill them as much as possible.

   After smashing the sea snake's head to make sure it was dead, Chu Mingcheng let go of the sea snake's pliers and let its body float in the water.

  This sea snake is too thin, and it has so many bones that it has almost no meat.

   Therefore, there is no food value, it is better to give some lucky people at the bottom a meal.

   Then Chu Mingcheng returned to the cave and began to sweep.

   Come in empty-handed, come out with more than 80 catties of catch.

   Among them, the largest is a tiger spot weighing more than 20 kilograms, the smallest is the two lionfish, and there is a dragon eel that is nearly 90 centimeters and is estimated to be almost five kilograms.

   This kind of moray eel is very rare, maybe it can be sold for four thousand oceans.

  But because of the giant clam shell, Chu Mingcheng suddenly felt that going to sea without a small mobile base station was really troublesome.

  One's energy is limited, it is impossible for him to understand all the knowledge and information about seafood.

  Internet is very necessary, if you encounter something you don't understand, you can find it by searching on the Internet.

   Fortunately, it only needs to be endured for a few months. At that time, there will be small mobile base stations on the big ship.

   In the future, when sailing on the sea, there will basically be a network signal.

   Bring back more than 80 catties of catches, among which dragon eels are still alive, they will be stored separately.

  In order not to kill other fish by releasing the live water tank, this thing is very fierce.

  Chu Mingcheng did a mental calculation and found that he had caught more than 400 catties of fish, the cheapest fish was worth 81 catties, and the expensive mouse spot could sell for thousands of catties.

   Maybe these 400 catties of fish can sell for 70,000 to 80,000, it feels a bit much!

  He checked the time, and it was only early three o'clock in the afternoon. The money was too easy to earn.

  What about the little sea lion?

  Chu Mingcheng entered the cockpit and honked the horn, hoping to attract the little sea lion.

  Having harvested so much today, he decided to take out the big green spot that he hit to reward it.

  The green spot weighs about 20 kilograms and is worth more than 1,000 yuan, which is almost enough to feed a small sea lion for a day.

  At this time, three sea lions were playing in the water about one nautical mile away from the island.

  Look carefully, and you will find that one of them is a little sea lion.

  The other two sea lions are smaller than the young sea lions, but they are female sea lions.

  The little sea lion was still playing with his companions, but suddenly heard a familiar voice.

  There are many ships on the sea, and the sound of ship whistles often appears.

   In fact, the little sea lion found the wrong boat at the beginning. Fortunately, some modern protection laws allow fishermen to have no malice towards these protected animals, so it can escape unharmed.

  Later, it heard the sound of the ship flute in Chuming City too much, so it could distinguish it.

  It is very familiar with the sound of the boat whistle. When it heard this sound, it immediately communicated with its partner, and then quickly swam to the island.

   Its little partner stayed in place, but unexpectedly followed after a short meeting.

   Sea lions do not have a fixed habitat, and basically go wherever resources are abundant.

  Two female sea lions also just met with their cubs last night.

  They are about to reach adulthood and have been wandering at sea for a long time.

  In the far sea, there are too many sharks that are fatal to them. In the near sea, it is difficult for them to find places with rich food resources. It is really not easy to survive.

  What the little sea lion communicated with them just now was to let them keep up and have food.

  Chu Mingcheng on the fishing boat didn't even know that he was being taken advantage of by the little sea lion. He rested for a while, but he didn't see the little sea lion, so he prepared to continue fishing and hunting.

   Unexpectedly, just as he was about to enter the water, he spotted a black figure swimming on the sea not far away.

  Seeing that the little sea lion really came, Chu Mingcheng continued to wait for a while.

   As a result, when the little sea lion was about to reach the side of the boat, he found two more sea lions following behind.

   "Hey, have you found your buddy?"

  Chu Mingcheng was a little surprised, then touched the little sea lion's head, and handed the blue spot over.

  The little sea lion hasn't eaten much since last night. When the big green spot appeared, it immediately turned around and barked twice, then lowered its head and hugged the fish and gnawed.

  The two female sea lions who were originally parked not far from the boat heard its call and saw that it really got food, so they boldly came over.

   Didn't dare to board the boat, but stayed at the back of the stairs and looked around, which seemed extremely interesting.

  Chu Mingcheng immediately understood this scene and was speechless.

  At this time, Jiang Luoluo, who heard the cry, also came out, and was a little surprised to see two strange sea lions: "I didn't expect the little sea lion to find a companion. I thought it was not good to be alone!"

   "This guy is not an adult yet, and he won't go into heat yet. It doesn't matter if he is alone." Chu Mingcheng was a little helpless about this, two more sea lions, two more big appetites, it seems that this time he got a little blood again.

  He searched among his catches and found two parrotfishes that cost less than 100 yuan.

   These two parrotfishes are not small, each weighs about ten kilograms.

  Handed the fish to two strange sea lions, and they immediately caught the fish cheerfully.

  Sea lions usually eat by swallowing, but the fish is too big, so they have to hug and chew.

  Jiang Luoluo looked at the three sea lions, touched his chin and thought: "Ah Cheng, if we train the three sea lions to help us find fish and hunt, do you think it is feasible?"

   "It is feasible, but I won't!" Chu Mingcheng spread his hands, how long it takes to train sea lions, it always feels troublesome.
