On the sea.
The crew members were gathering in groups of three or five on the deck to rest.
Chen Qingsheng arrived at the ocean-going processing mothership. He leaned his waist against the side of the ship, drinking a can of Red Bull in his hand, "I don't know where the boss is. Why hasn't he come up for so long?"
Xu Fang looked at his watch and said with a smile, "Don't worry, you must go aboard and rest for a while in half an hour. This is the rule set by the captain himself. There are still a few minutes left."
"Speaking of which, the agar-agar in this sea area is really lush. Collecting it is as easy as picking up money. I don't know why the captain would go so far to look for something else." A crew member muttered nearby.
Chen Qingsheng glanced at the crew member and said with a smile, "So he is the boss. In his eyes, these agar-agar are already the income in his bowl. What he wants to find are those rare catches that we have not discovered yet."
The new crew member rolled his eyes and thought it would be strange if he could find it.
Just then, there was a sudden sound of water breaking on the sea.
Xiang Yang emerged from the water, took off his breathing helmet with some difficulty, and then shouted to the boat: "Come and help me."
"The captain is here." Xu Fang said with a smile.
"Hey, what is that in the captain's hand?" Chen Qingsheng blinked.
Xu Fang also looked at the thing in Xiang Yang's hand in confusion. Because the distance was a bit far, and the sea cucumber was hidden under the sea, Xu Fang couldn't see it clearly. He walked towards the outer passage of the ship's side and said, "Who cares? Let's go and help the captain first. The captain just asked us to go over with two people."
Chen Qingsheng's eyesight was much sharper than Xu Fang's, but at this moment, he was a little bit unbelieving of his own eyes.
Chen Qingsheng rubbed his eyes vigorously, then stared at the bottom of the sea water under Xiang Yang and looked carefully. After a while, he exclaimed: "My God, what the boss is holding in his hand seems to be a sea cucumber."
"Sea cucumber? How is that possible?" Before Xu Fang could say anything, the crew member who had always thought Xiang Yang was slacking off stood up and exclaimed, "How is it possible that there is such a big sea cucumber?"
In fact, he was also very confused about what the thing Xiang Yang was holding in his hand was.
From a distance, it looks a bit like a broken squid tentacle.
The crew member was just wondering where Xiang Yang got this piece of squid tentacle, when he heard Chen Qingsheng say that the thing looked like a sea cucumber, and he immediately lost his composure.
Chen Qingsheng's face changed, and he said with certainty: "The thing in the boss's hand is most likely a sea cucumber. Let's go and help."
As he spoke, Chen Qingsheng took the lead and walked towards the outer passage of the ship.
The crew member who always thought that Xiang Yang was taking a break while the crew members were working opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
Soon, Chen Qingsheng and Xu Fang swam to Xiang Yang with their fishing nets.
"Oh my god, this is a joke. Such a big sea cucumber, Captain, you didn't get a toy from somewhere to fool me, did you?" Xu Fang said in disbelief after swimming to Xiang Yang's side.
Chen Qingsheng was also stunned. Although he saw it on the boat and it looked a bit like a sea cucumber, it was just a guess after all and he hadn't confirmed it with his own eyes.
Xiang Yang smiled and said, "Yes, this thing is indeed a sea cucumber. I was also shocked when I first saw it. However, in the past, humans have discovered sea cucumber kings that are more than 1.2 meters long. In such a vast ocean, no one dares to say that there are no larger sea cucumbers. This discovery this time is actually nothing surprising."
Xu Fang was speechless.
In the past, someone discovered a super sea cucumber that was 1.2 meters long.
But compared to this, that thing is just a mini sea cucumber!
Isn't this surprising
Chen Qingsheng also looked at Xiang Yang as if he were a monster, "Captain, how did you find such a big sea cucumber?"
Xiang Yang smiled and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Help me get this thing back to the boat first."
Chen Qingsheng and Xu Fang nodded quickly.
Then the three of them worked together, wrapped the big thing with a fishing net, and swam towards the outer passage of the ship.
The boss is working, so it is impossible for the crew on the ship to just sit there and watch.
As soon as we reached the outer passage of the fishing boat, the crew members on board immediately came over to help.
"Oh my god, this is a sea cucumber? Isn't this sea cucumber too big?"
Not surprisingly, this huge sea cucumber caused another round of exclamations from the crew on the deck.
Fang Youqun stretched out his hands and gestured in front of the sea cucumber for a while. Finally, he came to a shocking conclusion, "This sea cucumber is bigger than me."
A group of people couldn't help but look at Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang swung his arms and said, "Hurry up and clean out a large water tank. I must take good care of this sea cucumber."
Fang Youqun nodded quickly and said, "There's a ready-made water tank on the boat. Come on, get some people to help me carry it."
The crew member who was still standing in a daze nearby finally came to his senses and hurried over to help.
A group of crew members hurriedly carried the large sea cucumber into a water tank, and then carefully put some crushed ice cubes into the tank.
After finishing all this, Xiang Yang finally had time to ask Chen Qingsheng beside him: "Master Chen, how did you harvest underwater just now?"
After waiting for a long time, Xiang Yang didn't hear Chen Qingsheng speak.
When I turned around, I found Chen Qingsheng, still confused, squatting beside the water tank in disbelief, staring at the huge sea cucumber emperor.
"Master Chen?" Xiang Yang had no choice but to shout again.
Chen Qingsheng heard it this time. He turned around quickly and looked at Xiang Yang in confusion, "Boss, did you call me just now?"
Xiang Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why are you so angry? It's just a sea cucumber, isn't it?"
The corner of Chen Qingsheng's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, is this an ordinary sea cucumber
If it was an ordinary sea cucumber, would he be so surprised
He had been at sea for nearly twenty years, and he had never caught a sea cucumber this big before. He had never even seen one, let alone heard of one.
"Captain, you really can't blame Old Chen. The sea cucumber you caught was really too scary. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would not believe that there are such big sea cucumbers in the world even if you beat me to death." Xu Fang came to the rescue of Chen Qingsheng.
Beside them, Zhou Wang and others also nodded very seriously, indicating that Xu Fang was right.
A sea cucumber that's over two meters long is simply a joke.
They are all veteran sailors and are familiar with creatures like sea cucumbers. Many people on the boat have even caught sea cucumbers with their own hands.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that a creature like a sea cucumber could grow so big.
