Chapter 687

The appearance of this deep-sea coral surprised Qin Shiou, which was completely unexpected!

At this moment, Qin Shiou realized Billy's feeling when he suddenly saw shallow coral in his fishing ground. It's incredible, because it's a little against common sense!

Deep sea corals are very precious. They are valuable because of their small distribution area, long formation time, non replicability, and difficulty in fishing in the deep sea.

Unlike shallow sea corals, there are a large number of deep-sea corals in Australia and the South Pacific. Deep sea corals are mainly distributed in three regions: the Mediterranean, Hawaii and the surrounding Midway Island, Taiwan and the southern island of Japan.

These three regions are the high incidence areas of volcanic earthquakes in the world. The volcanic activity near the seabed is frequent, and there are often new submarine volcanoes, resulting in a large number of major elements such as iron, manganese and magnesium in the seawater, which provides extremely important material conditions for the emergence of deep-sea coral.

In addition to these areas, there must be deep-sea corals in major sea areas, but the number is very small and not discoverable. There are 3 million ocean sunken ships in the world, and the number of deep-sea corals must be less than 30000, and they are all in the deep sea, so it is more difficult to find them than to find sunken ships.

The coral clump in front of Qin Shiou has a small area of less than 1000 square meters. Corals are different in height and size, with the center more than two meters high and the periphery less than half a meter high.

In addition, in addition to different heights, corals have different colors. They are snow white on the outside, pink on the inside, and flame like crimson in the middle.

This is normal. According to the color, deep-sea corals are mainly divided into five categories: crimson corals, peach corals, pink corals, pink corals and white corals. The more iron, manganese and magnesium absorbed, the darker the coral color, the darker the color and the higher the value.

Qin Shiou really thanks grandpa II for his blessing. If shallow sea corals can be said to have been introduced by his old man, these deep-sea corals can never have been introduced by him.

Because deep-sea corals have the longest life cycle in the world, especially red corals, which have a life cycle of tens of millions of years, there is a saying in the jewelry market that "Millennium corals are red for thousands of years".

What does that mean? Very simply, it takes thousands of years to grow into a deep-sea coral, and it takes thousands of years to absorb iron, manganese and magnesium elements to turn red.

Even if Qin Shiou has the heart of the sea god against the sky, he can't guarantee that he can form such a deep-sea coral in decades.

He shrouded the Sea God consciousness on this deep-sea coral and felt the weak but tenacious vitality, which proved that the vitality of this deep-sea coral forest was OK. It's normal to think about it. Deep sea coral is known as the most efficient creature in the ocean. It only needs a very small amount of nutrition to meet its survival needs.

In order to protect this deep-sea coral forest, Qin Shiou quickly input Poseidon energy. As a result, he input it for a long time and was tired. This deep-sea coral forest still hasn't changed, and his life vitality hasn't been strengthened much.

This is the difference between deep-sea coral and shallow sea coral. If so much Poseidon energy is input to such an area of shallow sea coral, it is estimated that it can expand by half.

However, Poseidon energy is certainly useful to these corals, which can at least speed up their reproduction. This is also a skill of deep-sea corals. Corals can survive for thousands of years and have the ability to reproduce.

From this point of view, what Millennium King 80000 year turtle, all stand aside.

The output of Poseidon energy was a little too much. Qin Shiou was sleepy, so he took back Poseidon consciousness and went to bed. Finally, he took a nostalgic look at the small coral jungle and determined that he was not dreaming, so he closed his eyes.

In the morning, Qin Shiou heard a cry outside. After waking up, he rubbed his eyes and walked out of the villa. As a result, the bull came face-to-face with red eyes and shouted excitedly, "Captain, guess what I saw!"

Qin Shiou thought of his excitement when he found the red coral and asked subconsciously, "lying in the trough, do you also find that deep-sea coral?"

The bull looked at him in amazement and said, "deep sea coral? What deep-sea coral? "

Qin Shiou secretly scolded himself for being confused. He laughed and said, "nothing. I said casually. What's the matter? What are you so excited about? Your eyes are red. Have you found gold? "

The bull said with a smile, "no, my eyes are red because I've been on the night shift all night. Come with me, Captain, and show you the magic of the sea! "

Following the bull curiously, Qin Shiou walked to the beach. After a distance, he saw a magical scene:

I saw on the beach, long silver shuttle fish twisting their bodies, and the newborn sunrise sprinkled the sun on them, reflecting gorgeous colors!

When Qin Shiou looked around, there were such fish on the whole coastline. Some fish's tails were inserted on the beach, and some fish circled around and jumped, looking very happy.

After a short stay on the beach, these long silver fish will twist their bodies and struggle to beat back to the sea. In this way, after Qin Shiou watched for half an hour, the long silver fish will return to the water. Only a few weak ones still struggle in vain on the beach.

Light jaw silver fish!

Qin Shiou has been studying the world's marine life and is deeply impressed by the nature of this fish native to North America.

The smooth jaw silverfish live in the coastal area of North America. They are similar to the hairy scale fish in that they also lay their eggs in the sand and hatch by solar energy.

From March to August every year, this kind of fish will be seen jumping on the beach to reproduce. Previously, Qin Shiou saw that those who inserted their tails in the sand were female fish. They were laying eggs, while male fish hopped around and fertilized the eggs.

Unlike the hairy scale fish, the smooth jaw silver Han fish has strong physical strength. They don't have to go to the beach with the help of the big wave. Every time they reproduce, they will secrete a hormone to stimulate their vitality and let them go ashore by beating themselves.

However, after hatching, the small light jaw silverfish have no strength to jump into the water. They still have to rely on the tide at night and return to the sea with the help of the waves.

Smooth jaw silverfish is a very interesting fish. They have a natural ability like jellyfish. Jellyfish predict the arrival of storms 15 hours in advance, while smooth jaw silverfish predict the spring tide 10 days in advance.

These are all masterpieces of nature. The eggs of this kind of fish hatch by basking in the sun and warm the sand. It takes about ten days, so they will come to the shore to lay eggs ten days before the sea tide. Ten days later, when the tide comes, the young fish can go back to the ocean.

However, what Qin Shiou doesn't understand is, how can there be a tide ten days later?

According to his experience and weather forecast, only small tides are right at this time, and small tides can't rush to the beach so far and can't bring the small light jaw silverfish back to the sea
