Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Anglerfish
PS: Thank you for the reward written by youth! The eighth place on the new book monthly ticket list, there are only a pitiful twenty votes, for the sake of today's update, I implore everyone to vote for the old village!
Seeing that Wei Hang also began to hold a fishing rod, everyone felt that this guy finally couldn't sit still. That's right, everyone has gained, at least the pole is up, isn't it?
"Third child, are you stimulated this time?" Gao Fei said.
Wei Hang did not refute, picked up the fishing rod, and pulled up the fishing line. Everyone saw that the bait had long been missing, and they were all speechless, and said secretly: I asked you to pay attention to the fishing rod, you guy is running around, and you don't know that the bait is eaten up.
He put another bait, then reversed direction and threw the bait out hard. Immediately, quickly lengthen the line and let it extend into the distance.
"Third child, do you know how to fish?" Chen Jianliang finally couldn't help but teach a lesson, and when he saw him throwing his anger indiscriminately, it hurt a lot.
"Not really. Wei Hang replied casually.
In fact, he just didn't want to waste his energy on some inferior fish, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it even if he saw the bait being eaten just now, and he was only willing to do it when he encountered precious ingredients.
This time, he also saw a particularly large anglerfish, which made him think.
Because it has a purpose, it is very quick to concentrate. Almost the bait is handed to the mouth of the anglerfish, and the motionless anglerfish opens its mouth to eat the bait, which shows that it is not ordinary laziness, it is simply the kind of rice that opens its mouth.
Others also wanted to take the opportunity to say a few words, but found that Weihang had already begun to close the line.
"Fishing is such an elegant activity, it seems that it is not suitable for you. Goofy shook his head. It didn't take long for you kid to pull it up and take a look. How can you fish like this? You need to be patient!
You, a fisherman, are more suitable for you. You don't know much about technology.
"Uh! hooked?" Chen Jianliang said in astonishment.
When everyone heard this, they looked into the distance, followed the fishing line, and saw a fish being pulled out, and when they looked at it from a distance, it seemed to glow, and it didn't seem to be small!
"Can this be hit?" Daniel Zhang and the others didn't know what to say.
Is this guy lucky, or is the fish too stupid?
The anglerfish struggled very hard, so it was dragged to the deck by Wei Hang relatively easily. Then. Everyone just saw its full appearance, which can be described as a very ugly, full monster. The women present flashed away, not wanting to take another look.
I saw that its body was flat and its torso was thick and short. The body is soft, scaleless, brown on the back, and grayish-white on the ventral surface. There are many cortical protrusions on the head and around the edges of the body. There are two dorsal fins. The pectoral fins are broad, lateral, rounded. The head is large. Disc-shaped, with a broad snout, eyes located on the dorsal surface of the head, and a wide mouth. Upper.
In short, indescribably weird.
"How can there be such an ugly fish?" This fish greatly affected Su Meng's impression of marine life.
"It's as ugly as the stonefish last time. Zhang Xueru also spoke.
Wei Hang was not affected, and beckoned the others to resist the fish bucket out. Move the anglerfish in. This is a treasure! Very high-end ingredients, two or three hundred yuan a catty. This one is more than 10 catties, a few thousand yuan! It has to be fresh. Let Big Brother Gu take it away tomorrow.
"This is the toad fish, also called the anglerfish, which the Japanese people like. Wei Hang opened his mouth and said, all of them are known as the best in the world, because the production is not much, even in Japan, which is keen on anglerfish, ordinary restaurants can't eat it.
In the Kanto region of Japan, the anglerfish is known as the best in the world, and it is known as "the puffer fish in the west and the anglerfish in the east".
It is said that its flesh is as tight as a lobster, strong and not loose, and the fiber is elastic, and it is more delicious than ordinary fish, and it is very rich in collagen.
Retrospectively, this fish has evolved into a high-end ingredient in Japan and South Korea, in addition to its delicious meat, it is also related to ancient China.
In ancient times, Japan followed the example of China and tried its best to be perfect and beautiful in things. The Japanese are very flattering, and "anglerfish" is homophonic to "health", meaning "peace and health". Although the anglerfish is not good-looking, it is also used as a mascot on the table. This has to be ironic.
"It's as ugly as a toad. ”
"Don't look ugly! It is said to taste good. This sells to restaurants and won't be much cheaper than a large lobster. "The same is true of the previous stonefish, although it is not beautiful, but it is said to have beauty effects, so it can be seen that the fish cannot be seen
Hearing that it was an anglerfish, Yun Rulong nodded in response. He has heard of this kind of fish, he has not eaten it, it belongs to high-end seafood, he used to hear people say that this fish is very ugly, and he has no appetite to see it, so he resisted and has not ordered this dish.
"You can earn thousands of dollars on this third child!" Gao Fei was a little surprised, his salary was only about 10,000, which was relatively high. No, this kid earns more than him in one night.
"I saw it glowing just now! I didn't notice it when I got closer. Daniel Zhang opened his mouth to question.
Wei Hang pointed to the front dorsal fin of the anglerfish: "It was glowing here just now, but it was not itself glowing, but the masterpiece of the luminescent fungus attached to it." ”
The anglerfish is lazy but very intelligent, and its front dorsal fin can simulate a fishing rod, attracting millions of luminescent bacteria at the top, using the light emitted by the luminous bacteria to lure some phototaxis creatures to come and swallow them in one gulp.
In the north, it also has a name: the old manfish!
Anglerfish usually lurk on the bottom of the sea and are not good swimmers. Sometimes he glides slowly on the beach with the help of his pectoral fins, humming with each step he moves, making a sound similar to that of an old man coughing. Therefore, it is also called "old man fish" on the northern coast of our country.
"Is this male or female?" Fang Zhen suddenly asked a nonsensical sentence.
"Is it important?"
"No, I just think there might be a male or female nearby. Fang Zhen said.
Others sweat profusely, feeling that this guy is beating the idea of the other half of the family.
Wei Hang smiled: "Both male and female have been arrested." ”
These words made the others confused, and they didn't understand what it meant, didn't they just catch one? Why were both male and female arrested?
"It's a very interesting fish, and at a certain stage, the male can only depend on the female for life, and eventually becomes part of the female. ”
Everyone still didn't understand anything after listening to it, and Weihang had to explain it in detail.
Male anglerfish lose the function of their digestive tissues when they reach adulthood and must parasitize underneath female anglerfish. The female will emit a special smell to attract males in the dark depths of the sea, and the males will follow the smell to find the female anglerfish, and bite the underside of the female anglerfish, and the tissues and blood vessels of the two fish will gradually communicate.
Petite males live on the nutrients of the female, and the body organs of the males will gradually disappear and become a fleshy protrusion on the female's body, which can basically be regarded as the genitals of the female. In addition, a female anglerfish can parasitize several male anglerfish.
"There are so many wonders in this world!" everyone said in amazement. (To be continued......)
