Chapter 75： undercurrent

Chapter 75 Underwater currents

"Acheng, is diving, fishing and hunting difficult?" Under the bridge pier, watching Chu Mingcheng tie the safety rope to the protruding steel bar, Zhao Jun thought of what he had gained last night, and couldn't help but ask in his heart road.

Although he can fish in his spare time now, the harvest is not stable.

Sometimes a good one can earn hundreds or even thousands of dollars, but it’s also often empty, or there are only two or three small fish.

If it can increase income, that would be better.

"Brother Zhao Jun, I'm good at water, and it's not a problem to hold my breath dynamically for two minutes while diving, and I'm very adaptable to water pressure, so I only fish and hunt occasionally."

“Free diving requires professional learning and assessment, and the same goes for fishing and hunting.”

"I really don't recommend what you say. After all, you have a child and a family to raise. You can go fishing normally, but don't think about it."

Chu Mingcheng immediately turned around to dissuade him, but his expression was very serious.

He also has the ability to swim freely, otherwise he would not choose to dive alone before learning professional free diving.

Even if you dive, you will choose to be with others.

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized a problem. He dived to sell fish by himself. If some people here learn to dive because of their greed, wouldn’t he be doing harm to others?

Knowing that things were a bit big, Chu Mingcheng decided to give some science to the people at the pier when he went back to sell fish in the afternoon, so as not to be followed by others, and they disappeared in the end.

Zhao Jun is not a person who does not listen to advice. After listening to it, he gave up his little thoughts.

Chu Mingcheng was ready, with a net bag and a live fish buckle hanging on his body, and a harpoon in his hand. At first glance, he thought it was the King of the Sea.

But today he didn’t forget to bring the lasso. The geography under the pier is different from that of the reef, and he doesn’t know whether the harpoon will work or not.

"Brother Zhao Jun, you just go to your business, and when the time comes when your fishing nets are collected, come and pick me up."

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay, I won't have any problems with this safety rope."

"Okay, you have to pay attention to yourself, I will come to pick you up after I put away the net."

Zhao Jun nodded, watched Chu Mingcheng swim out of the water for a short distance, then drove the fishing boat back a little, and then left from another direction.

Seeing him leaving, Chu Mingcheng plunged into the water.

Compared with the previous dive site, the water under the pier is more turbid and the visibility is lower, but there are really a lot of fish.

After diving only five or six meters, he found a handful of schools of fish. He continued to dive, and even vaguely saw a few big fish.

Sure enough, the pier is the best place for fishing and hunting. If you go to sea, you usually choose to fish and hunt in oil wells.

Down to ten meters, Chu Mingcheng untied the safety rope tied to his body. He wanted to continue diving to find out the surrounding terrain and find a suitable fishing place.

These fish were all circling around the pillar, and he wasn't sure to catch them with a harpoon under such conditions.

When he came to a water depth of about 20 meters, he saw the bottom of the pier.

He could see that the bottom of the pier was embedded in the seabed. He looked around and found that there were also many fish hiding here.

Suddenly, a large fish appeared on the side of the bridge pier, and was spotted by Chu Mingcheng.

This is bigger than the red friend fish he caught yesterday. He didn't care to continue checking the terrain, and swam over immediately.

This big fish was very vigilant. When Chu Mingcheng was only three meters away from it, it suddenly flicked its tail, and at the same time it swung up a cloud of mud and sand, and then rushed away.

Without hesitation, he immediately followed, preparing to drive the fish to the location where Yanmen Island and the bridge connect.

He chose this location on purpose. If you can’t find good terrain, then spend some effort to drive to this place. There are also rocks here.

As long as Chu Mingcheng drives the fish here, he is sure to stab the fish with a harpoon.

But now the fish is running towards the center of the bridge, he has to catch up with the fish to change its direction.

Only after chasing for a short distance, the big fish in front stopped suddenly, and then seemed to be controlled by something.

It was too late when Chu Mingcheng realized the problem, he also came to the position of the big fish under the drive of inertia, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab it.

Then he felt a very strong suction on the left side, and he and the big fish were swept away instantly.

Da Yu didn't even pause for two seconds just now, and he had almost no ability to resist.

Chu Mingcheng knew at this moment that he had encountered an undercurrent in the sea.

People are swept away by the undercurrent, and basically die without life.

But Chu Mingcheng didn’t panic, because he could stay in the water for at least an hour, and it only took five or six minutes when he came down to chase the fish just now.

The undercurrent on the seabed is terrifying, but it is impossible to keep him involved.

The big fish is in the front and he is behind, but he is better than the big fish that drifts in circles, at least not turning around.

And Chu Mingcheng is also waiting, waiting for the undercurrent to weaken.

Sure enough, after only a short while, he clearly felt the suction of the undercurrent weaken, and the big fish seemed to be dizzy, flicking its tail sideways, as if trying to get rid of the weakened undercurrent.

Chu Mingcheng took the opportunity to swim over and kicked the fish's head so hard that his foot hurt a little.

Judging from the fact that he hardly felt much resistance in the water, the strength of this kick was only a little weaker than that on the shore, and it was no problem to make the big fish dizzy and dizzy.

Sure enough, the kicked big fish drifted with the undercurrent, and then turned up its belly.

Chu Mingcheng took the opportunity to use a lasso to prevent the fish from suddenly waking up and running away, and then used a bloodletting dagger to bleed to kill it.

This is a grouper with seven dark stripes on its body. Through this feature, he immediately recognized it as a seven-banded grouper.

This kind of grouper is not well-known in my country. It is the only warm-temperate grouper in China. It is extremely cold-resistant. It is also the only grouper that is distributed in the Yellow Sea.

Most groupers are distributed in warm waters, and the bigger the meat, the more woody it is.

But this grouper is different. Because of its cold resistance, it has a high fat content.

It can grow up to more than 100 kilograms, and the bigger the better.

Unfortunately, the Chuming City is a bit smaller, about 70 to 80 centimeters in length, and the weight is estimated to be only 10 catties+.

The price should be between three and five thousand.

Chu Mingcheng decided to take this fish home tomorrow to honor his parents and let them taste the real top grouper.

After finishing this grouper, the influence of the undercurrent on him has completely disappeared.

Chu Mingcheng began to swim towards the surface of the water, raised his head to take a breath, and then looked around.

He found that he was at least seven or eight hundred meters away from the bridge. If normal people were lucky enough to survive the undercurrent, they would not be able to swim back!

Chu Mingcheng began to swim back speechlessly, and began to think about the role of this undercurrent.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for him to hunt the seven-banded grouper he was carrying. He had to drive it to a corner, and wait for it to calm down before he could stab it with a harpoon.

If the stabbing misses, it escapes, and it will be another chase, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

This is also the main reason why he only caught 12 fish yesterday afternoon after he had hung up in the water.

Now, if he is not afraid of the undercurrent, he may be able to use the undercurrent to help catch fish.
