Chapter 133: First Acquaintance with Abalone
Just in time, there was a piece of ambergris on the octopus clone at the bottom of the boat and some gold and silver jewelry to be brought to the boat.
Without hesitation, Li Xuan said to the crew members on the ship: "I have been sailing for so long, why don't we go down the sea to take a walk?"
Li Xuan's proposal was immediately responded by the crew members. Chen Bin was the first to shout: "Brother Xuan, I want to go down."
Li Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Who will go on the exact same thing?"
At this time, Li's father stopped him and said, "Xiaoxuan, it's too far from the shore here, and the sea water is probably a bit deep. Otherwise, we'll still not go down, right?"
When the fishing boat sailed here, the vast sea was already around, and there was no trace of land. Li’s father’s worries really make sense.
But Li Xuan has an octopus clone on the seabed and is familiar with the structure of the seabed.
Perhaps it is the reason for the movement of the earth's crust. Around the Grand Canyon of the sea are towering undersea mountains.
This sea area is indeed deep, with an average depth of more than 300 meters.
But because of the undulating mountains under this sea area, the shallowest part is only a few dozen meters away from the sea surface.
Li Xuan smiled. He couldn't tell the crew clearly how deep the bottom of the sea area was. He could only say: "Go down and see first. If it's too deep and can't dive, then we'll come up again."
Now, Li's father had nothing to say.
Li Xuan quickly decided to go through the lottery to start this time, Yang Hua, Chen Bin, and Wang Lei.
After arriving at the bottom of the sea, Li Xuan and his group first looked around carefully and confirmed that everyone could dive in this sea area and that there was no clear danger in a short period of time.
Then, everyone separated at the bottom of the sea and went to find more valuable fishing catches.
Li Xuan was naturally purposeful. As soon as he separated from everyone, he immediately swam towards the giant sea anemones.
But when Li Xuan passed a reef under the sea, Li Xuan, who was swimming at full speed, was suddenly stunned and his swimming movements were also paused.
I saw a black object at the bottom of the huge reef with about two or three pickup trucks combined.
That thing looks a bit like a human ear, like a half conch, buckled on the reef at the bottom of the sea.
Li Xuan was really surprised and happy when he saw the marine creature, "It turned out to be an abalone, and it was very big. It was probably a double-headed abalone. Even if it was not, it was the largest among the three-headed abalone. Take it back a little
Once you raise it, you will have the opportunity to cultivate it into a double-headed abalone.”
Li Xuan couldn't help but lick his lips, and then swam quickly towards the abalone.
Abalone is a familiar high-end seafood.
Even those who have never eaten seafood in the deep inland have definitely heard of the famous abalone.
Maybe Li Xuan was too excited inside. He swam a little faster and was sucked by the abalone.
I saw the abalone, and the shell suddenly lifted up, then it was stuck to the reef.
Li Xuan was secretly annoyed and said to himself: "I made this mistake by accident and almost missed the abalone."
Abalone has a very special skill, which is its super adsorption ability.
To catch abalone, you can only take it off the adhered rock wall while the abalone is not paying attention.
Once the abalone is alert and prepared in advance, it is basically impossible to pull it off the rock wall. Even if it is broken, it will continue to firmly absorb the rock wall.
But this is not a problem for Li Xuan.
Because Li Xuan knew that in addition to the method of catching abalone by taking the abalone quickly while he was not paying attention, he also knew a method of catching abalone.
That is to use a very thin thing similar to a blade to absorb the abalone at the edge of the rock wall and insert it under the shell of the abalone. Just pry it gently to pry the abalone from the rock wall
Got down.
Coincidentally, every time Li Xuan goes to sea, he is used to carrying a dagger with him.
Li Xuan swam to the abalone, grabbed the abalone's shell with one hand, and took out the dagger on his calves with the other hand, and then stabbed the sharp dagger into the abalone's shell with the rock wall.
Then hold the dagger and pry it hard.
Suddenly, the abalone was pried off from the rock wall by Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was immediately overjoyed.
This abalone is fresh and vivid at a glance and can tell that it has at least six or seven taels of weight. After making it into dried abalone, even if it cannot reach the weight of a double-headed abalone, it is definitely the top three-headed abalone.
This is pure and wild three-headed abalone. It has been a very precious ingredient since ancient times. Its meat is tender and rich in flavor. It ranks first among the "Eight Treasures of the Sea" and is an extremely precious seafood. It is enjoyed in the entire international market.
It is famous for the flavour of seafood.
After catching this abalone, Li Xuan was not in a hurry to catch the giant anemones. He swam around this huge undersea reef several times, carefully searching for the figures of other abalones.
Unfortunately, the shape of this undersea reef is not at all. It is convex on the left and concave on the right, and is very uneven in symmetry. There is a large amount of seaweed growing on it.
Adding this reef is exactly the same color as the abalone, and it is also gray and not as beautiful as the autumn color, so according to Li Xuan's rough search method, it is impossible to find abalone.
Li Xuan also found that he was a little anxious.
It is not so easy to find abalone, aquarium.
No matter how old abalone is, they do not have any attack or self-defense methods. The ability to survive is to disguise themselves and disguise themselves as exactly the same as the surrounding environment.
To find abalone, you have to search carefully little by little.
Li Xuan looked at the time and found that it had almost half an hour passed since he was launched.
Helplessly, Li Xuan had to swim up the sea.
"Wow!"
Li Xuan crawled out of the water.
The people on the boat immediately threw down the rope, and the end of the rope was accompanied by a hook.
Luo Hai shouted loudly on the boat: "Captain, you have gone down so long to show up. You must have found something good at the bottom of the sea, right? Hang the net bag on the hook and I'll pull it up for you."
Li Xuan grabbed the rope and stared at the hook for a moment.
After a moment, Li Xuan laughed silently. The hook turned out to be a hanger that was bent and folded.
I really don’t know who came up with the idea. This way, the crew members who are diving will not be able to hang their net bags and save time to a greater extent.
Moreover, it is a good idea to make a hook made of bent clothes hangers that will not accidentally hurt the crew members at the bottom of the sea or cause unnecessary injuries to the crew members.
