fish pond master

The sky was low and the sea breeze was blowing slightly.

An awkward silence filled the air.

[…] Shi Yu nodded his eyes: [Oh. 】

[...? ? ? 】The system cat has question marks all over his face: 【No, that's how you react? 】

Shi Yu chuckled twice, picked up the system cat, and stroked its bald forehead: 【Otherwise?How can you rush up and stab it to death? 】

【...It's so reasonable that I can't even refute it. 】The system cat let him pat his head in a daze, and said: 【Then you don't have any other reactions?You don't want to know why it made you lose your memory again? 】

【Damn, I just said that the main system is not so idle and staring at us in a panic... Last time it was also the trick of that idiot mermaid!I'm telling you...]

[Shh, don't say it. ] Shi Yu pinched its mouth in a timely manner, although the system cat didn't rely on its mouth to speak: [There's nothing to say, it's not a good thing anyway, what's the point of mixing so much?It doesn't want my life, I don't care what it wants to do. I think I'm too busy to panic and have nothing to do? 】

[You and I have honestly upgraded the fish pond to the full level, and you and I are liberated separately, aren't you happy? 】Shi Yu thought for a while, and added: 【If it really has something to do with us, we can't escape, and sooner or later it will come to our door. 】

The system cat pursed her mouth: [What you said makes sense, but I always feel that something is wrong. 】

[And now I know hey, but you don't know, tell me the truth... Are you just trying to hide? 】

[Oh, I was spotted by you. 】Shiyu squeezed the meat on his stomach, and said without sincerity: 【We humans have a saying, 'How much ability can you eat?' Anyway, I don't think I have the ability, you Tell me I've just heard the story, are you really going to cooperate with the mermaid to bring down the main system?You you on the line. 】

[With this time, why don't you think about when to get me the task item for upgrading the fish pond to the third level. As long as we upgrade fast enough, the main system will not be able to catch up with us. 】

The system cat thought for a while before replying: [...Although, the computing power of the main system is enough to catch up with us. 】

[Can't you pick the right one?go down! ] Shi Yu rolled his eyes, let go of his hand, the system cat let out a small scream, and fell from Shi Yu's arms to the ground, Shi Yu went into the room to tidy up his things, in fact, he didn't need to bring any money The silver is thin and soft, but in order to deal with the neighbors in the same village, I still bring some packages back.

[Hey, you don't allow me to tell the truth...] The system cat said aggrievedly.

Shi Yu thought about it, packed up the sheets and bedding at home, and just took it home to change into a clean set. This set was washed and dried before the typhoon came, and it was another set of good bedding!

The system cat didn't plan to care about what Shi Yu brought back, but seeing Shi Yu's tidying up, it became interested for some reason, and commanded: 【Pack some of my cans and take them home!And that little dried fish!Oh, I want that lick candy too! 】

[Go, you've only been back for a day or two, why are you bringing so much? ] Shiyu said angrily, and conveniently stuffed two cans into the bag: [Two are almost enough, each of these staple food cans is one catty, enough for you to eat a few meals! 】

【I don't!I could eat one in one meal!Two is only enough for two meals!I went back today and finished eating, what will happen tomorrow? ! 】

[I'll go to the market to buy some shrimp for you tomorrow?Don't you want to eat salt and pepper open back shrimp? 】

The system cat's eyes lit up, and it leaned over to fawn on Shiyu's leg with its tail: [There are also baked prawns with cheese!Let's level up!I want to eat big lobster! 】

Big lobsters are not cheap, Shi Yu looked out the window at the momentum of the wind and rain, and remembered that he hadn't cooked it in his daily routine today.

Animals have a much stronger sense than humans. When a typhoon is coming, many marine creatures will sense the changing water flow in advance and start to flee everywhere. Before and after the typhoon is a good time to go fishing with the net - of course, the opportunity Coexisting with risks, the ocean currents will become very strong at this time, which is fine on a boat, but it is very dangerous when going into the sea.

Shi Yu Yi is a bold person, and he doesn't dare to do this at all.

He blinked, tied the last packed clothes tightly, and said: [Well, let's go to that island again today to see if we can get you two lobsters to eat. I brought a net, If we can catch some goods, we will eat fresh ones today and canned food tomorrow. If not, we can eat canned food today, and we will take you to the market to pick them tomorrow. 】

[I can, I can! 】The system cat immediately hugged Shi Yu's calf tightly with shamelessness: 【Thank you, Dad!Dad is the best! 】

Shi Yu packed up his things, said hello to the uncle, and fed the killer whales again, and then boarded his small broken boat and went to the previous island.

As soon as he got on the boat, Shi Yu realized that the wind was really strong today, probably because his house was above the water, and he didn't think much of it at home, but when he got on the boat, the waves knocked the boat upside down , the water splashed in all directions, and the whole ship was wet.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to put all the packages in the storage box and put them there. Even if the boat capsizes, there will be no water in it when it is salvaged.

The system cat put on a small scarf and hid under the awning, complaining: [The wind is so strong, ah——!After a while, water came! 】

Shi Yu was wearing a plastic raincoat because he was going to sail the boat, and it was stuffy and hot. Hearing this, he said, "Can't you hide somewhere higher?"What can I do with water on deck?you……】

Before Shi Yu finished speaking, a wave came head-on and slapped the boat hard, and the splashing water completely soaked Shi Yu. Oh, the system cats lying on the deck were not spared either, one cat thief per person You opened your mouth tacitly, and each took a mouthful of water.

Two drowned chickens, you look at me, I look at you, come on, there is nothing to say.

Because the route to the island is in the reverse direction, the original one-hour journey took more than two hours to arrive at the place. Shiyu deliberately drove a little crookedly, and laid down a few floating nets along the route from the island to the port. , I changed into a diving suit and jumped into the sea.

In order to avoid having to go ashore from time to time, Shi Yu deliberately threw a plastic board down. One end of the plastic board was tied to the boat by a rope, and several empty fishing net bags were hung under the board. As he harvested, the foam The board will also sink slowly under the weight, so that he doesn't have to float up to the surface again and again to put things.

I have to say that the visibility in the sea today is extremely poor. One is that there is no sunshine, and the other is that the typhoon is coming, and the currents make the water muddy. However, it is finally in the far sea, and even so, the visibility is higher than that of the near sea. Not a lot.

If this kind of sea hadn't been for Shi Yu's ability, it is no exaggeration to say that whoever jumps in will die.

Shi Yu swung his limbs in the sea, until he was ten meters below, he felt that the surrounding water flow was low, that is, the water was turbid, and all kinds of indescribable creatures and non-living things were flying freely in the water, which greatly hindered Shi Yu. Sight.

Shi Yu was also smart for a while, and deliberately picked the leeward side of the island to go into the water. Sure enough, there were already a lot of fish that had come to take refuge here. During the dive, he even saw a scallop flapping its shell desperately. It just happened to hit his hand - what's the hesitation, it was delivered to the door, basically equal to the food sent to him by God.

So within 3 minutes after he entered the water, the first catch fell into the net bag tied around his waist.

The corals on the reefs on the bottom of the sea seem to have been affected by the typhoon. The reticulated corals are swaying in the water, and many small fish are huddled in the crevices of the rocks. Occasionally, a predator will swim in, and the small fish will coax them again. And scattered, fled to the next shelter.

It's not that they don't want to take refuge in the sea urchin thicket, but the sea urchin thicket has been occupied by smaller fish schools. Their size is not too big, and they are really not small. If the sea urchin thicket usually I dared to go in and hide for a while, but now I have to escape in when there are fish in it, and the car will overturn if I am not careful.

When it comes to the extent of being preyed on by predators and the damage of sea urchin bushes, it is natural that sea urchin bushes with countless spikes are more lethal. As for the brothers who are targeted-as the saying goes, husband and wife are like the same forest. Birds, they fly separately in the face of disaster, not to mention that this is not a husband and wife. If one or two brothers die, the family will be happy.

Shi Yu's arrival is no less than that of a large predator.

But Shi Yu didn't like this lowly fish. I said before that when a fisherman goes fishing in the sea, he is competing with fish schools. One arrow can only hit one fish at a time. His physical strength is limited, and he has to fight against the sea. It is natural to choose the big one to fight.

This is different from netting. If it is netting, it is a reward from God. Whether the fish in the net is big or small depends on luck-not to mention that even if it is netting, fish that are too small will be released.Of course, it would be even better if they knew how to be grateful. The fisherman most hoped that the little fish could ask their grandparents, parents, and the like to come and play.

Shi Yu first let go of a group of thick-lipped fish that were still fry, and then let go of a group of black bream, all of which weighed less than a catty, and finally waited for the arrival of the golden drum eel, which looked very thick.

Among the group of golden drum eels, there are several black golden drum eels, which are a circle larger than the other golden drum eels from a distance, a bit like the leader of the golden drum eels.

To be honest, the taste of black golden drum is not much different from ordinary golden drum eel, just a little bit more delicious, but because of the strange nutritional theory and rarity, the price of black golden drum is higher than that of ordinary golden drum. The fish is much higher.

Regardless of the ease and value of shooting, Shi Yu would naturally choose the larger and more expensive black gold drum.

He hadn't moved for more than ten minutes, and the group of golden drum eels hadn't noticed that there was a top predator hidden on the other side of the reef. They fled and were blocked by the island. The holy place of peace in the ocean currents also seemed to be tired from swimming, and their swimming speed dropped, and they began to forage among the dense seaweeds growing on the reef.

I have been waiting for this moment!

The speargun in his hand had already been hooked to the spring, and the largest black golden drum led a small group of golden drums to change direction and swim to another reef. The speargun had already set its sights on it and swam along it moving slowly.

I counted silently in my heart.

three.

two.

One.

emission!

A silver light streaked across the sea, hitting the center of Heijingu's body. The powerful inertia brought Heijingu into the reef with a 'ding', stirring up a small handful of finely divided sand and gravel.

The surrounding golden drum fish scattered away, and quickly gathered into groups. After swimming for a while, they continued to forage in a piece of seaweed not far away.

If it was a human being, the son would have disappeared without a shadow, so there would be no mood to look for food.

However, this also stems from the instinct of creatures. Creatures in the sea hunt for survival. Except for a few bad species (such as killer whales, dolphins, and killer whales), they deliberately hunt and kill their prey for fun. Other predators Most of them become a harmless fish after they are full.In this regard, other schools of fish that have not been prey will naturally not give up the hard-to-find food for a harmless fish.

Shi Yu swam over and put the still-breathing black gold drum on the fishing line behind the arrow, adjusted the fishing line, reloaded it, found a nearby shelter, and continued his hunting.

But this time he was unlucky, Shi Yu swam to the back of the reef, only to find a clump of sea urchins, nearly half a meter high, densely covered with spikes, warning passers-by.

Shi Yu thought about it, but waiting was waiting anyway, so he simply passed by and plucked the hair, took out the scissors on his thigh armor belt, and cut it with a click, abruptly cleaning up the sea urchin.

The little fish hiding inside didn't expect the predators to be so aggressive this time. At first they just avoided it, but then they couldn't avoid it. The small fish come out in groups, which is also quite spectacular.

Shi Yu didn't care about them, some fish cared, and immediately a group of four-banded snappers came out of nowhere and devoured the small fish school.

The four-banded snapper is a small fish species with an average body length of about 30 centimeters. The whole body is bright yellow with four blue longitudinal bands on the side of the body. It grows in the coral and has a fierce personality. feed on invertebrates. ①

This is not the point. The point is that this kind of fish is small, not to mention, with more thorns and less meat. It tastes good when fried, but other methods are more general.Because of the living environment, this kind of fish will often reach a low level when the net is left. However, because it is too troublesome to handle, it is more delicious than other fish. It is generally classified as small miscellaneous fish. Throw it away, or it will be reduced to fish feed.

Shi Yu looked away boredly, and threw the packed sea urchins into the fishing net pocket. Sea urchins with pricked spines are similar to snails, and you can pick them up with a pry with a screwdriver. Some Qingyi fish feed on sea urchins. The fish smelled the smell of the sea urchin that Shi Yu accidentally poked, and while Shi Yu was not paying attention, he secretly shared a share of the pie next to him.

Shi Yu stretched out his hand to tease them, scaring them away.

Shi Yu smiled inwardly, deliberately pierced two sea urchins and threw them aside, letting the Qingyi fish share the food.

The taste of Qingyi fish is also quite average. Shiyu is too lazy to spend the effort to hunt it. If you have this time, it is better to plan a few more sea urchins. After all, you can make a sea urchin rice bowl when you go home, right?

Such is the life of a fisherman!

He recalled that when he was still working in the city, he would occasionally go to a Japanese food shop with a couple of friends to order some meat. At that time, the most popular thing among them was sea urchin rice bowl, but if you want to eat sea urchin rice bowl, then At least 398 yuan for a buffet, like Shiyu, who is only willing to eat 200 yuan, is not available.

Thinking of this, there is another interesting thing.

Sometimes when they go to eat Japanese food, there will be an event in the store, and they will give each person a fresh sea urchin. When Shiyu’s friends eat it, they feel very uncomfortable. They think it is fishy and smelly, and it is not as good as chilled sea urchin. eat.But Shi Yu didn’t believe in evil, because he had eaten fresh sea urchins. When he was a child, he picked up two sea urchins from the beach and brought them home to let his parents open them. They washed them and ate them directly. The taste was fresh and thick.

The so-called frozen sea urchin is the sea urchin that has been washed and dug out after being caught, and then frozen and preserved.The fresh sea urchin is eaten right away, and it is still alive before it is served on the table.

Then he also took a sip, and immediately felt very disappointed-the serious fresh sea urchin has almost no fishy smell②, it is fresh and juicy, and can clearly taste the sweetness of seafood, combined with the fat The oily taste, let alone how delicious it is.

Although the sea urchins in the Japanese food store are said to be fresh sea urchins, they are obviously not fresh enough, so the so-called fresh sea urchins are not as delicious as chilled sea urchins.

However, it is said that eating too much sea urchin is prone to high blood pressure. It is okay to taste it once in a while, but eating too much may not be so good. ③

To put it bluntly, human beings are really interesting creatures. They have worked hard to evolve to the top of the food chain, but as long as they are activities that make human beings feel comfortable and happy, most of them are not good for the body.

Whether it is eating or sleeping, this routine cannot be avoided.

Life is not easy, humans sighed.

After cleaning up the sea urchins, Shi Yu came down again. The group of golden drum eels were still swimming around just now. Shi Yu unceremoniously collected all the remaining black golden drums and picked up a few A bigger golden drum fish was also harvested, and he bald all the big households in the family group, so he stopped—actually not, the main reason was that the fishing net was full, and he had to go up to change the net.

The system cat lazily ordered food on the boat: [Dad!You go deeper!There are two big lobsters below!I want to eat pan-fried lobster tonight! 】

【How much rice?Give me a navigation system. ] Shi Yu said while tying the full net bag to the foam board, and replaced it with an empty one. The weight of the fish and sea urchin was not light, and the foam board sank under the pressure, but it only sank half a meter less than.

The deeper it sinks, the more convenient it will be.

For a fisherman, it is really happy to not have to float up and take a breath in the sea, and I don’t know how much energy is saved.

【Let me take a look...it's about 50 meters deep, it's in the trench next to you, come on, you can do it. 】The system cat gave a coordinate description, and was afraid that Shi Yu would get lost, so he got a navigation in his mind, and a flashing fluorescent yellow arrow appeared carelessly in Shi Yu's mind, which flashed beyond his reach bother.

【It's so deep that you want to kill me?hold head high? 】Shi Yu complained smoothly, and then said: 【Cancel your navigation, I'm dazzled. 】

[Oh, the lobster will get rid of you, Dad! 】The system cat obediently cancels the coordinates, there is no way, who made it such a little cat with no integrity?Whoever is in charge of today's dinner is the father, and the system cat yelled 'Dad' in a sneaky way, without any psychological barriers.

It wasn't that Shiyu didn't want to go down to 50 meters. He was fine if he really wanted to. The main reason was that the visibility was not high today. Although it wouldn't be pitch black at 50 meters, it wasn't too bad.

However, the system cat called 'Dad' and blocked him here. For the sake of his dignity as a father, Shi Yu had no choice but to go down.

Shiyu changed into the net bag, turned over flexibly in the water, and began to dive.

As the depth deepened, as expected by Yu Yu, the visibility was too low. It wasn't pitch black, but it was dark blue everywhere. The visibility was less than one meter, and it was blurry one meter away.

Occasionally, a low shadow would pass in front of Shi Yu, and Shi Yu couldn't do anything about them.

[Baixi, turn on a light!This is simply not clear! 】 Shi Yu complained.

The system cat came alive immediately, and said in a profiteer's tone: 【Shiyu, do you want to buy a lamp?Searchlights are easy to use!Only one hundred tokens! 】

[Climb for me!I'll give you food and you still want to cheat my money? 】Shi Yu refused without hesitation: 【Don't think I forgot, isn't there one in this lamp family?It's just that I didn't bring it! 】

[Isn't that why I didn't bring it here?Why did I ask you to buy this? 】The system cat's tone changed: 【You haven't bought anything from me for a long time, and my performance this month is ugly!If I come last in the regular meeting, I will be ridiculed by my peers!I don't care, I can't be the last one anyway, so you should spend some money with me anyway! 】

[Your spicy chicken company will close down sooner or later! ] Shi Yu cursed with a smile, and finally changed the searchlight.During this period of time, he has earned a lot of tokens from the mermaid, and spending a hundred coins is nothing, the point is that he can't really let Xiexi be criticized at the company's monthly meeting, right?

Hey, raising a cat and caring about its performance is no one else.

The searchlight immediately fell into Shi Yu's hands through black technology, and even thoughtfully helped him turn on the light. A bright lamppost with a diameter of at least ten meters made Shi Yu feel at ease when he looked at it. He put the searchlight on After putting it on his head, he began to seriously look for the big lobster named by the system cat.

Shi Yu's location may be a little bit off from the place pointed by the system cat. Shi Yu searched around but couldn't find it. Shi Yu became impatient, so he asked, "Where's the lobster?"Didn't you say here? 】

The system cat said coolly: [behind you—behind—]

When Shi Yu turned his head, he saw a huge bloody mouth!

Two rows of densely packed snow-white sharp teeth were facing him, and I could even see the opponent's deep throat and the scars on the wall of the mouth!

It's a shark!

Huge great white shark!A great white shark with a mouth that is almost as big as half a hour!

[Dancing Grass! ] Shi Yu subconsciously stabbed the speargun up, but the great white shark didn't move at all, so Shi Yu stuck the speargun in, and didn't even move the tail.

Shi Yu: ...?

The great white shark moved.

Shi Yu felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and was about to flee when he saw a big black and white face emerging from behind the great white shark.

There is also a great white shark fin in its mouth.

Shi Yu didn't care about being in the sea, so he took a deep breath and drank his mouth full of sea water.

He looked at the innocent killer whale and thought cursingly:

Thank you so much, baby.My deep-sea phobia that just happened was cured again!
