Chapter 923 930. The best gift (4)

The sea outside Mugudushu is very beautiful.

If you pay attention to the news of Bonte, you can see that the locals have good food conditions. The seafood in the market is not expensive. There are fish, shrimps and crabs delivered every day. For the coastal residents, as long as they are diligent, they can definitely fill their stomachs.

However, it is difficult to live comfortably. The main premise of living comfortably is to be alive. This is difficult in this country. People are always worried because you don’t know when a war will break out.

The local blacks catch seafood, and they will not catch anything other than big fish, shrimps and crabs, because these things are abundant in the local area.

Now the fishing resources in the four oceans and seas are declining. The Bonte sea area is an exception. No mechanical ships dare to come here to fish. The pirates of Bonte are famous all over the world.

No pollution-in fact, this country has no industry and no mechanized fishing boats to fish. The fishery resources in the Bonte sea area are naturally rich.

After Ao Muyang dived into the water, the water here was 20 to 30 meters deep. There are still a large number of coral colonies living in such a deep place, which is enough to surprise people.

Except for deep-sea red corals, other corals can only survive at a depth of more than ten meters. They need sunlight. If the water is too deep and the light is too weak, the coral polyps cannot survive.

Local corals can survive widely at a depth of 20 to 30 meters, which proves that the sea water here is very clear, too clear.

Entering the water, Ao Muyang sighed comfortably, and bubbles suddenly came out.

There are two strange fish of more than 30 centimeters wandering underwater. The surface of the fish is yellow with red stripes. They are strange because both the dorsal fin and the pectoral fin are feather-like in shape. When stretched out, they look like wild bird feathers worn on the heads of Indians.

Ao Muyang recognized their identities at a glance. This is a lionfish, also called lionfish, a highly poisonous marine fish.

It is not surprising to encounter a lionfish here. This fish is nocturnal and likes to swim in dark water at night. After the sun rises, it will hide in the shadows of corals and rocks.

Interestingly, when lionfish rest during the day, they will lower their heads and remain completely still, like a sculpture.

This was the first time that Ao Muyang saw a live lionfish. He had only seen them on TV and in books before. After encountering a lionfish, he became careful. Once stung, it would not be fun. With the medical environment in Bonte, nine out of ten people would die.

When Ao Muyang saw the lionfish, they were shuttling between the coral reefs. This fish is at the highest level of the food web in the coral reef environment. Crustaceans, invertebrates and small fish are all their food. They have few natural enemies, so they roam freely.

When he saw these two lionfish, he was happy.

When he was about to go into the water because he was drunk, he said he would catch a fish to drink with his wine.

Lionfish is the best choice because they like to live in reefs or coral reefs near the coast. If they are far away from the coast, they will live in shipwrecks and water plants.

Moreover, this fish is solitary. Except for the breeding season, they like to live alone at other times. If they do not live alone during the non-breeding season, it means that there are not many suitable places for them to live around, so they can only gather together.

Now Ao Muyang is naturally far from the coast. What does it mean that the two lionfish are together? It means that there are indeed shipwrecks or large areas of lush water grass around.

He showed his fishing net and prepared to catch the two fish and send them to Old Frey.

I think the people of Nereus will like this gift. When they see the two lionfish together, they will definitely make the same guess as Ao Muyang: there are shipwrecks around.

Ao Muyang dived underwater, and the black dragon followed him. The two of them were like two big fish, swimming freely underwater.

When the distance got closer, the fishing net was opened.

At this time, the lionfish discovered the danger, and they all opened their long fins at the same time, with the pectoral fins, dorsal fins and pelvic fins spread out together, which made them look several times bigger.

This is the origin of their name. When they spread their fins, they are like lions spreading their lion manes, which is very majestic.

Ao Muyang knew that lionfish usually swim slowly, but they have outstanding explosive power. They swim very fast when escaping and when hunting. Sometimes they invade small fish schools. Because of their fast speed, they often catch one fish before other fish find danger.

In this way, he kept scaring the two fish, so the lionfish did not run away immediately. They realized that the danger was in front of them and waited for an opportunity to fight back.

The two lionfish kept stretching and retracting their fins, spreading and retracting them, looking fierce and arrogant.

This is their unique defensive skill. Lionfish have poisonous spines on their fins. They are constantly waving poisonous spears in the process of continuous stretching. If predators insist on attacking them, they are easily stabbed.

Even if the predator is lucky enough to avoid their poisonous spines, they will become three-dimensional after spreading their fins, and it will be difficult for predators to eat them.

If predators try to prey on them but fail, they will basically die, because except for a few sharks with exaggeratedly large mouths, other predators will always be stung when swallowing lionfish, and the venom will enter their bodies and quickly kill them.

Unfortunately, this trick didn't work in front of Lao Ao. The two lionfish tried hard to scare him, but after the scare, they found themselves in the fishing net.

Ao Muyang smiled and wandered in the sea dragging the fishing net.

He searched the surroundings first. This was a fair opportunity to go into the water, and there was no one around him who he could not trust. He felt very comfortable underwater.

There was some garbage underwater, probably thrown by Nereus's people. Groups of coral fish swam and shuttled on the seabed. They were colorful and very beautiful.

Ao Muyang used gestures to tell Black Dragon to go to the surface of the water to attract the attention of Bal and others. He swam around for a full half an hour before coming out of the water.

There was no target on the seabed. Su Li tracked his tracks through spy satellites and marked the surrounding sea areas. Ao Muyang would not have to go into the water here again in the future.

He shouted after swimming out of the water, and the searchlight on the salvage platform shone over.

Bal shouted on the boat: "Hey, my man, come up quickly. You know, we haven't found you. This is too bad. If you don't come out, we will all go into the water to find you."

This was naturally a polite remark. The French on the salvage ship didn't care about the life and death of a Bonte black man.

Ao Muyang dragged the fishing net onto the boat. He said, "I swam a little far away just now because I was looking for a suitable gift. Look, now I found it."

Two lionfish jumped around in the fishing net, their fins still stretching and retracting, trying to intimidate each other.

Seeing them, Bar, Joseph and Old Frey gasped together: "Huh, lionfish?!"
