After "Old Saury" taught his experience, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were eager to try their skills.
But below five or six meters, the water pressure has greatly increased. Without water goggles, a person cannot open his eyes and see at the bottom of the sea, which is equivalent to being blind. And since there was only one water mirror, the two of them could only dive in turns.
The meaning of "Old Saury" was that Chen Liquan wanted to take a rest first and Hong Yanwu come first.
But Hong Yanwu knew Chen Liquan's temperament best. When he saw that Chen Liquan, who was usually only interested in practicing martial arts, showed a rare expression of eagerness to try, he took the initiative to be humble and gave him the first opportunity.
Not to mention, Chen Liquan was never vague when it came to serious matters. He found traces of scallops as soon as he made the first "big move". Two minutes later, when he emerged from the water seven or eight meters away from them, he actually took out three or four scallops, which was regarded as his first pot of gold.
After that, it became unstoppable, and his next few "big moves" also achieved great results. Ten minutes later, when his body was frozen and hard, he took a breather and took a look. He actually pulled out three or four kilograms of scallops from the bottom of the sea, and also took three sea cucumbers with him. It was a fruitful harvest. .
This result made Chen Liquan extremely satisfied. He couldn't help but express his gratitude for Hong Yanwu's humility just now, and his honest and honest attitude made Hong Yanwu and "Old Saury" laugh almost from ear to ear. "Old Swordfish" even praised him, saying that his level was far superior to that of most "Hai Bongzi".
Needless to say, Chen Liquan's good results undoubtedly heightened Hong Yanwu's interest. So after he put on the water goggles, he wanted to compete with Chen Liquan. With a kind of excitement, after taking a long breath, he couldn't wait to jump into the waves.
Although the water is clear today, in the deep water area, the bottom cannot be seen from the surface. When Hong Yanwu dived to half the water depth, he could vaguely see the shadowy seabed through the diving goggles. On the other hand, he also clearly felt that the underwater temperature dropped, the light dimmed, the pressure increased, and the diving resistance increased.
At the same time, he remembered the words of "Old Swordfish" very clearly, so he did not dare to be careless at all, and kept using both hands to explore the path vertically downward to avoid hitting his head on the rocks. Just continue to dive like this. When you reach two meters from the bottom of the sea, your vision becomes completely clear.
Compared with the beautiful scenery in shallow water, the underwater environment here has completely changed. The colorful seaweed and sea creatures are gone. Occasionally, you can see small rocks, which are almost all mottled and layered. Big "Oyster".
In addition, the original mud and sand on the seabed has disappeared. The seabed in front of you is covered with a thick layer of large "rolling oysters" (jargon, oysters that roll with the tide), like many small bricks, which is really spectacular. , but the light is also relatively dim, and the vision range is less than three meters away.
This was the first time that Hong Yanwu saw the underwater scenery under deep water. If you were an ordinary person, you might find it a bit spooky, but in his opinion, it was truly wonderful.
Because according to the words of "Old Swordfish", only outstanding "sea bumpers" can go down to this eight (nine) meter water depth. If you are an ordinary person, you may not be able to set foot in this place in your life. So this is where a "sea bumper"'s true courage and diving ability are tested.
It's a pity that, perhaps because of Chen Liquan's visit just now, Hong Yanwu didn't find what he expected after this "violent move". So based on the principle of "having hair does not mean being bald", he picked up two fist-sized "rolling oysters" and started to float up.
This will prove that he has also reached the bottom of the sea. Secondly, this thing is also very delicious. Once the shell is broken open, the plump oyster meat inside will be exposed, which is as bright as jade and as tender as watery tofu.
That’s something that makes people’s mouths fill with freshness and fill their stomachs with excitement. Even if you don’t recognize this thing now, if by the 1990s, when fresh seafood became popular in the capital, the value of this "rolling oyster" would be at least half a month's salary of a worker.
In this way, Hong Yanwu's first plan failed, but he was not discouraged. Starting from the second fierce move, he began to change his strategy. First, he began to swim to areas that Chen Liquan had not set foot in. The second is to start using the skills taught by "Old Swordfish" and use ears to find the existence of large reefs.
The so-called use of ears actually means putting your ears into the water to listen to the sound.
This is because according to "Old Swordfish", the underwater sound transmission is very clear and close, and there are some shellfish on the reef, which makes them very vigilant. As long as there is someone swimming on the water, it will "click" more than ten meters away. Close the shell at once.
Therefore, if one wants to dive into the middle of a reef with many shellfish, it will be a complete noise, and the "clicking" sounds made by various shells when they are closed will continue one after another.
Hong Yanwu's luck was pretty good, but it was just his first trial. He didn't swim long before he heard several soft sounds coming from the water. To him, this was like the roar of a starting gun, and he subconsciously pounced back into the sea.
This time he dived in and swam in the direction of the sound for nearly half a minute. A large reef loomed in front of him.
But when he swam closer and took a look, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Because although the towering reef is nearly three meters high and looks like a barrier, there are only a few small scallops dotted on the facing reef wall.
It's really not worth taking action for being so lonely, but Hong Yanwu thought again, after all, the second best thing is to see the real thing, it's better than nothing! So I still pulled off a few scallops.
But what happened next was something he didn't expect. As he held his breath and swam to the back of the big reef, his eyes suddenly became bright. The reef wall on the back side of Ganqing Reef is covered with half-open scallops. There are about a hundred of them, and they are not small in size. They are all about the size of a small palm.
This kind of grand scene made him immediately realize that he was lucky today. Otherwise, there is a saying among "sea bumpers" that "hitting the sea means bumping". This kind of thing largely involves luck.
So in a state of extreme excitement, he began to grasp the scallop tightly with both hands.
These scallops are easy to pull, and can be removed with a slight tug. He pulled them while stuffing them into his pants, and his hands were a little too busy. It wasn't until his pants were stuffed with scallops and he was holding several more scallops in his hand that he couldn't hold his breath anymore, and then he quickly surfaced with a huge booty.
To say that this feat was not in vain, Hong Yanwu actually captured about ten big guys. In terms of weight, it has completely exceeded the total amount of those small scallops that Chen Liquan just caught, a full five Six pounds.
On the surface of the water, after he put all the scallops into the net bag tied by the float, he couldn't help but feel happy while holding the "net float", feeling that this fierce act was not embarrassing at all.
"Lao Swordfish" and "Chen Liquan" were also pleasantly surprised when they saw such big and numerous scallops. When they heard from Hong Yanwu that they had discovered a large reef on the bottom of the sea, their eyes even shone.
"Old Swordfish" was really pleased with the outstanding performance of these two apprentices, so in order to reward them, he immediately used the fish knife he carried to pry open the scallop shells, and took out the delicious and tender scallop meat on the spot for Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan swallowed it alive.
This is the unique celebration habit of "Haipengzi". Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan already knew about it, so they swallowed it without hesitation. Unexpectedly, it was so delicious that they couldn't help but enjoy it!
Chen Liquan didn't even eat enough, and then he directly helped himself. He doesn't use a fish knife at all, he can break open the tightly closed scallop shells with just his fingers to eat the meat. While looking at the "Old Saury" in awe, Hong Yanwu couldn't help but sincerely lamented that only eating it this way can be called fresh seafood.
Unexpectedly, just when a few people were laughing and Hong Yanwu was about to take another plunge, something unexpected happened on the shore.
As several loud shouts came from the distant shore, Hong Yanwu and the others suddenly discovered that the "Little Baizi" on the shore seemed to be surrounded by several strong young men, and he seemed to be still shouting with those people Arguing about something.
And just when they hesitated for a moment, "Xiaobaizi" was pushed to the ground by someone again. At this time, Hong Yanwu could no longer care about anything else and immediately waved his arms and swam towards the shore!
Needless to say, something must have happened!
