Return to the small fishing village of 1982

He continued to walk around and found another blue crab buried in the soil not far away, with only two eyes exposed.

"Each one is better at hiding than the other!"

Fortunately, he has good eyesight and sharp eyes. He picked it up and took a look. It was only a little smaller, but it weighed just over a pound. It was a male, so it was not bad!

Putting the blue crab into the bamboo basket, he looked for it more carefully, fearing that it would be covered by the soil and miss it.

If there are rocks around, he will move them to see if there is anything underneath.

But the area he was looking for was a tidal flat with little water. After breaking off several rocks, he didn't see any small fish or shrimp stranded. He was not discouraged and continued to search patiently. Anyway, there was plenty of time at low tide.

After moving several rocks, he finally saw two big blue crabs stacked high next to a big rock!

"Damn it, it's a field battle, it's really yours!"

I picked up one, but the other one was also stuck on it. I looked at the back and saw that they were indeed a male and a female.

They were all blue crabs, Ye Yaodong thought in his mind. It must be because it is an isolated island. No one comes and goes, and there is no threat. Therefore, after the tide goes out, the blue crabs climb up to the beach to relax in the sun, and wait for the next high tide to return to the sea.

After he excitedly collected both of them, he saw a small beach not far ahead, which was relatively flat and had many small holes on the surface.

I walked forward a few steps quickly and squatted down. It was different from the small holes on the surface of the beach.

The razor clam is an invertebrate mollusk that is commonly found in intertidal mud and sand. It has a long, narrow, razor-shaped shell that can move up and down quickly in its caves and quickly shrink into the cave when frightened.

He muttered a few words: "It's a pity that I didn't bring any salt. Otherwise, if I sprinkled it on these holes, the razor clams would have come out by themselves. Now I have to dig out it myself. It's troublesome!"

Putting the fire tongs in his hand aside, he dug out the holes one by one with his bare hands. Fortunately, the drill was not deep, so it was easy to dig out.

After digging out a few, I saw a stone next to it. I moved it away and found two jumping fish, which I threw into the bamboo basket.

No matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat, so it is still a harvest.

After digging out all the small holes in this area for more than ten minutes, he estimated that he had gained three or four kilograms. He stood up with satisfaction.

After squatting for too long, his neck felt a little sore, and it was inconvenient to press it with dirty hands. Ye Yaodong had no choice but to twist his neck and look at those people.

Everyone was divided quite widely, and I don’t know what their harvest was.

He looked up at the sun again. The sunlight was still strong and dazzling. It was still early and the tide was not rising so quickly. He could only continue to look for it, occasionally picking up a few jumping fish.

People walked further and further out, directly out of this small beach and into an area of ​​shallow cement and sand.

As soon as he stepped into the sea water, Ye Yaodong sat on a big rock and planned to wash off the mud on his legs first. The mud stuck to his legs and dried completely in the sun. It tightened the skin and was not very comfortable.

Just after washing his feet, he saw a crack in the stone

"You've thrown yourself into a trap! Come out." He put on his gloves and stretched out his hand to grab it. "Oh~ it's Xiao Baizhang!"

After throwing it into the bamboo basket, he continued to reach under the stone and tried to dig it out, "There are more!"

I grabbed it out and saw that there were two little white seals!

The Fujian people have a saying: Three little white seals, with a sheep on top!

Other octopuses are sold by the pound, but Xiaobaizhang is sold by the piece!

"I got a sheep!"

The products on the isolated island were indeed much richer than those on the dock. After walking around the stone, he saw a few more snails. .

There weren't many, just seven or eight. The snail flesh on the top of his head was directly attached to the stone. He broke off each one and threw them into his hands.

The snails that are adsorbed on stones will have meat inside, while those soaked in sea water will have hermit crabs inside and have no meat.

Now that he had reached the shallow water, he planned to walk around first.

"Hey, Mr. Shi Jiu..."

Seeing a red figure swimming around in the rubble pile over there, Ye Yaodong quickly walked up to it and saw a stone Jiugong.

Shi Jiugong usually lives in stone crevices or caves in the sea. It seems to be inseparable from stones. No matter how deep the water is, there must be stones at the bottom for Shi Jiugong to appear and live there. Then the bottom Shrimp as food object.

He put the bamboo basket and fire tongs aside, freed his hands to surround it with both hands, and grabbed it. The spines on its fins were poisonous, so be careful.

The red Shi Jiugong looks a bit pleasing to the eye, much more beautiful than ordinary fish.

Ye Yaodong is also in a good mood. Regardless of whether the goods are valuable or not, it is always joyful to have something gained.

The next harvest was not much, until the tide started to rise, and he only caught two Shijiugong, which was enough to make a bowl, and one big blue crab.

Wading in the water, he walked towards the reef where he had just disembarked. Others were still wandering around with their heads lowered. Ye Yaodong shouted to them loudly: "The tide is rising!"

After everyone raised their heads and glanced in the direction of the sound, they continued to lower their heads. It started to rise, but it hadn't reached it yet. The boat was still stranded on the beach. What's the rush?

When he got closer, he shouted again, "Aren't you hungry?"

"Where can I not be hungry? I'm so hungry."

"I've already eaten several shrimps raw."

He didn't say that he really didn't notice that there were no shrimps in his harvest today. "I didn't even find any shrimps."

"Then what did you find?"

"Three Xiaobai Zhang, three Shi Jiugong, a few stone crabs, a few miscellaneous snails, three or four pounds of razor clams, six or seven blue crabs..."

"Damn it, you found six or seven blue crabs? How big are they?" Xiaoxiao, who was closest to him, looked at him in disbelief.

"They're all over one kilogram, and the largest one is probably over two kilograms!"

The biggest one was found under the rocks in the shallow water when he was about to come over. Fortunately, he found it, otherwise it would have returned to the sea when the tide rose.

Ah Zheng yelled in envy and hatred: "What kind of luck are you? Even if you only weigh three or four kilograms of razor clams, you still picked up seven or eight blue crabs? I just picked up one."

"I also picked up one! It's quite big, it should weigh three or four pounds." Chen Wei also came over and said.

"I feel like there are quite a lot of blue crabs here. I don't know if it's because it's an isolated island and the fishing nets can't be put here, but they're quite plentiful."

"I think so too. It's probably because no one has been here," Xiaoxiao said while looking at Ye Yaodong's bamboo cage, "You're already full."

"Dongzi is really lucky these days! In the same place, he gains more than us."
