There are many small and micro organisms in the sea, and the sea water looks clean and clear, but in fact, if you drink it, some strange guests may get their stomachs in one step.
Most of these organisms are harmless to healthy people, but there are always exceptions.
The thing Zhang Zian picked up was too small, about the size of a grain of rice. At first, he thought it was a small bug on land. He was attracted by the smell of seaweed, so the moths fell on the seaweed in search of food. . However, he took a closer look at the sunlight and noticed that the body structure of this "bug" was quite special. It didn't look like a bug on land, but rather some kind of crustacean in the water, such as a shrimp or something else.
More details can only be seen with the help of a magnifying glass or a microscope.
Seeing his movements, Ke Shaohui smiled and said, "Did you pick up something good?"
"What is this? Do you know it? Is it a shrimp?" Zhang Zian held the shrimp in a tissue and handed it to Ke Shaohui.
This thing is really too small, Zhang Zian barely saw its outline when he brought it almost in front of his eyes just now, he was ashamed to put his hand directly in front of his eyes.
Ke Shaohui's eyesight is not bad, but he still can't see its appearance clearly at a distance. He used to be a sailor with a rough personality, so he stretched out two fingers carelessly to pinch it and show it to his eyes.
Zhang Zian felt that something was wrong. It was obviously not wise to touch an unfamiliar creature rashly, but it was too small, and he had never heard of any kind of shrimp that was poisonous, so he hesitated and did not stop it.
As a result, just as Ke Shaohui pinched it, his facial muscles twitched suddenly, and he took a sharp breath.
"Damn it! This thing... fucking bites me!"
He subconsciously flicked his hand to shake it off, but regretted it as soon as he shook it off, because it was too small, and when it fell to the ground, it got mixed into the soil and couldn't be found.
"Where did it go?"
He jumped from the tires to the ground, stooping and looking around.
"Forget it, don't look for it, are your hands okay?" Zhang Zian asked.
Ke Shaohui looked down at his hand. On the tip of his right index finger, there was a wound the size of half a grain of rice that was oozing blood.
"Fuck? Is this little thing so fierce?"
He stared at his fingers in disbelief.
You know, he used to be a sailor on a ship, and he often goes out to sea for half a year. Don’t imagine that life at sea is as delicate as a pig girl. , mop, and railings, every seaman's palm is very rough.
He retired from the seaman a few years ago and was admitted to the fishery administration. The things he often touched changed from cables to keyboards. The calluses on his fingers were smoothed out a lot, and they were still much rougher than ordinary people's fingers. Even so, As soon as I met the little thing, I was bitten and bled.
If it was the other part of the bite, he might not have reacted so violently and just threw it away, but the ten fingers connected to the heart.
"What is that? Why is it so fierce? It bites when it comes up!" He looked at Zhang Zian in horror, because he couldn't see anything clearly, and Zhang Zian could at least see clearly than him.
Zhang Zian also looked at his fingers, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, it may be some kind of shrimp, or it may be something else."
"shrimp?"
Ke Shaohui was taken aback when he heard that, "Shrimp can bite?"
This was something he had never heard of in his many years as a seaman.
"I don't know, but the sea is so vast, there are always species of creatures that humans don't know about." Zhang Zian didn't jump to conclusions, "By the way, has your fishery administration received similar reports recently, such as tourists or citizens at the beach Something like being bitten?"
"This..." Ke Shaohui thought for a while, "Even if there is such a thing, we should ask the hospital. Unless there is a big trouble, we may be the last to know..."
This is true, the scope of fishery management is very wide, but because it is too wide, there is no way to control it very carefully. If someone is bitten by this creature at the beach, if it is serious, they will go to the hospital to treat the wound, and then return to the hospital. At home, basically no one will consciously report to the fishery administration.
"Do you suspect that there are many such things in the sea just now?" Ke Shaohui asked.
"There must be a lot, such small creatures must gather in large numbers to survive. I was born in Binhai City, and I have never heard of such small biting things on the seashore. They should be attached to the seaweed and blown together by the typhoon from the ocean. Here." Zhang Zian nodded.
"Then... what should I do?" Ke Shaohui's face looked like he was constipated. First the typhoon, then the seaweed, and now the mysterious biting insects. If this continues, the fishery administration will have to resign collectively.
A bug could bite through his rough fingers, if there were groups of such little bugs... He didn't dare to think about it.
what to do
The easiest way is of course to prohibit citizens and tourists from swimming in the sea, but once this decision is announced, it will definitely cause an uproar. People will not believe that a biting insect is causing trouble, but will randomly guess whether there is something in the sea Horrible dangers, from leaked nuclear fuel to Godzilla, people are always delusional when it comes to it.
Zhang Zian grabbed a handful of seaweed and put it in his palm to observe carefully.
As a pet practitioner, he is good at identifying pet-related animals. He is not good at plants, unless he has done his homework. For example, before entering the redwood forest, he has studied which plants in the redwood forest are edible. However, as a child who grew up by the sea, he knew a little about seaweed and could recognize it as a species of Enteromorpha.
Enteromorpha seaweed is a general term for a large group of seaweeds, including more than 40 species of seaweed. He couldn't tell which type of Enteromorpha seaweed he had.
Ocean pollution, water quality deterioration, and algal blooms often form red tides, which cause a large number of marine organisms to die, also known as red ghosts.
Red tides are not necessarily red, and there are also green tides formed by green algae outbreaks, the typical representative of which is the algae of the genus Enteromorpha.
Recognizing that it was Enteromorpha genus seaweed reminded Zhang Zian of a piece of news he had read before, because that news was more unbelievable, and it was also about a certain kind of shrimp that could bite, so he was more impressed because it was the first time he heard about it. Said that shrimp can bite.
In August 2017, after playing football in the afternoon, a 16-year-old boy in Australia ran to the beach because his leg muscles were sore and stretched his calf into the sea to soak his feet.
It's not the first time he's done it, he and his friends swim in the same spot almost every day and nothing ever happens.
However, about half an hour later, when he lifted his feet out of the sea, he was horrified to find that both feet were densely covered with small wounds from the middle of the calf, and were bitten so badly that there was hardly a piece of intact skin left. .
He felt a little tingling when he soaked his feet, but he thought it was a normal reaction caused by the contact of the muscles that were congested and hot from exercise with the cool sea water. After all, it was winter in the southern hemisphere.
After being sent to the hospital, the doctor couldn't tell what bit him.
In order to find the truth, his father came to the same beach again, put the raw meat into the sea, and when he picked it up again, he found a group of small bloodthirsty crustaceans. After identification, it seemed to be some kind of glass hook shrimp.
This dangerous glass lobster does not only exist in the southern hemisphere. As early as 2007, more than one citizen in the Shandong Peninsula was bitten by them. It is certain that this glass lobster will roam in the sea with seaweed. Not too far from the seaweed.
In expeditions, people often describe the army ants in a miraculous way, saying that a group of army ants can eat a large living person into a skeleton in an instant. This is of course an exaggeration. The living people are not stupid. devour
This kind of bloodthirsty glass shrimp is like the army ants in the sea. It is not easy to run in the sea. It should be very dangerous to encounter groups of glass shrimp when swimming, but normal people will not go there. Swimming in a patch of seaweed? The chances of being entangled in seaweed and drowning are much higher than the chances of being gnawed by glass hook shrimp.
So generally speaking, this kind of glass hook shrimp does not interfere with human beings, and there are not many incidents of people being bitten, at least not many reported—they are too small and their bodies are translucent, which makes them Their actions are very stealthy. When you are stung while swimming in the sea, you can't see anything in the sea, and you don't think that you are stung by some kind of shrimp.
Zhang Zian told Ke Shaohui everything he knew, and comforted him: "As long as no one dies swimming near the large seaweed, nothing serious will happen, and there is no need to take any special measures to avoid panic. Several signs were erected on the beaches where seaweed appeared, warning citizens and tourists not to swim in the sea, otherwise they may be entangled in seaweed and cause danger.”
Ke Shaohui nodded repeatedly and breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was causing troubles all over the city. No matter whether anyone was injured or even died because of it, the fishery administration department would be the unlucky one. If a few signs can solve the problem, then It couldn't be better.
"This is only a palliative solution. The real solution is to wait for the monsoon to blow large pieces of seaweed back to the deep sea. If you are lucky, the wind may blow up within a few days." Zhang Zian added.
"I hope so." Ke Shaohui sighed, "It will really cause trouble for our fishery administration... Then I'll go first, transport this truckload of seaweed to other places, and then I'll get a few more signs, and put them on all the beaches with seaweed .”
Zhang Zian suddenly thought of Welder Zhao and Electrician Wu, and asked again: "Wait a minute, is there a tidal flat to the south of us? Someone is digging big mole crickets there?"
"Yes, there is such a large tidal flat." Ke Shaohui confirmed, "What happened to that tidal flat?"
"Uh... Is there a large piece of seaweed in that tidal sea?" Zhang Zian asked.
"Yes, that area is one of the densest areas of seaweed. The seaweed exploded in large numbers. The big mole cricket shrimp, big bamboo razor clam, and so on were all fattened by the seaweed. There were indeed people catching shrimp there." Ke Shaohui said embarrassedly. Smiling, "To tell you the truth, my colleague used to be a shrimp catcher there, but I've been too busy recently, so I haven't been there..."
Zhang Zian: "..."
Others catching shrimps over there may be catching shrimps, but as long as it is a place where there may be danger, once welder Zhao goes, danger will definitely occur.
He even suspects that Welder Zhao is a person with hidden supernatural powers, who can increase the probability of danger close to 0 to 1...
As soon as he thought about it, his cell phone rang, and the caller was Electrician Wu.
Seeing this, Ke Shaohui waved goodbye to him, gestured for more contact in the future, and then returned to the car to drive the municipal engineering vehicle away.
"Hello? Master Wu, is something wrong with Master Zhao?" He answered the phone.
Before Electrician Wu could speak, the voice of Welder Zhao yelling like killing a pig came from the phone.
"Cough! Don't mention it!"
Wu Electrician simply told what happened.
It turned out that the two of them had calculated the ebb time, and when they arrived at the tidal flat, the tide had just ebbed, so they parked their electric cars on the shore and carried their tools to catch big mole cricket shrimp.
Welder Zhao heard fish friends talk about how to catch shrimp, but he thought he had learned it after hearing a few words, and walked into the tidal flat after low tide with confidence, but it was not that simple at all when he actually operated it.
To fish for big mole cricket shrimp, first use a shovel to shovel off a layer of sand on the puddle of stagnant water. After shoveling off the sand, if there is a hole underneath, insert a bamboo stick or something similar into the stagnant water. If the bamboo stick moves, It shows that there are big mole cricket shrimps in the hole. Next, stick the brush into the hole.
The giant mole cricket shrimp is obsessed with cleanliness and will clean up foreign objects in the hole. The brush is considered a foreign object by it, and it will push the brush outward. Pushing and pushing, it will emerge from the hole.
It seems simple, but the timing is not so easy to grasp.
Welder Zhao was in a hurry, and boasted that he was going to catch ten catties of mole cricket shrimps today. As a result, several of them obviously popped out of the hole, but then shrank back. to dig shrimp out of the hole.
He took out several fat and big mole cricket shrimps in a row, and laughed at Wu Diangong, who used a brush to catch shrimps step by step. for a moment.
He thought it was the shrimp pinching him with its pincers, but he didn't care, and continued digging deeper, but the hole was rather tortuous, and his hand got stuck.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a tingling pain in his palm and forearm like an electric shock, but it was not very painful, and he was still wondering what was going on.
When he managed to pull his arm out of the hole, he found that his palm and forearm were dripping with blood, and there were many small translucent insects hanging on his skin, densely packed.
The visual impact frightened him far more than the pain on the skin, he screamed in fright, Wu Haoxuan was frightened into a heart attack.
Electrician Wu was also dumbfounded when he saw his arm. He threw the tools where they were and discarded them. He pulled him up and ran to the electric car by the sea, planning to send him to the hospital, and called Zhang Zian while running.
After hearing this, Zhang Zian sighed, this time it was just a flesh injury, and there would be no danger, but Zhao Welder will definitely be full of passion and adventure for the rest of his life if he goes on like this.
