Chapter 227: The Boston Lobster

After complaining fiercely about Su Rui's woman in his heart, Qin Xu took two steps forward, looked behind the dark red coral reef in front of him????, and looked over. ?? ? ?en`org

But after reading it, Qin Xu was even more confused, what's going on? There is nothing else but the coral reef?

I looked behind me with some confusion, but it was still empty, except that the coral reef was gravel.

Huh? No.

After taking a closer look, Qin Xu found that something was wrong, why did this coral reef still move on its own?

After taking a closer look, it was indeed moving, so Qin Xu directly stretched out the huge flippers and hit them with a stream of water, he wanted to see what the hell this was.

As soon as the water was brought up, the big guy lying on the coral reef couldn't bear the loneliness anymore, straightened his upper body, and rushed towards Qin Xu with two big pincers.

"I'll go, big guy. ”

Now, Qin Xu finally saw the true face of this guy's Lushan completely.

However, he was also shocked by the guy in front of him. The reddish-brown guy in front of him was actually a big lobster.

The reddish-brown body, lying next to the dark red coral reef just now, he didn't look very carefully, if he didn't pay attention, it was really not clear.

Carefully looking at the guy in front of him with his upper body held high and constantly waving his big claws, looking at the length of the body, Qin Xu estimated that it would be more than forty centimeters, right?

What's special is the pair of huge front chela, which looks like they're almost half the length of this guy's body.

And according to the pair of former big chela, Qin Xu had a general understanding of the identity of the guy in front of him in his heart.

The big guy in front of him should be the Maine lobster, which is often called the Boston lobster in China.

The so-called Boston lobster, actually called Maine lobster, is not produced in Boston itself.

Originally known as the North American lobster, this pincer lobster can be found in the northeast of North America and the east coast of Canada, and was named Maine lobster in the 19th century due to its large production in Maine and its first commercial harvesting operation.

Usually the body length of this lobster varies from 20-60 centimeters, and the weight also varies from 1-4 kilograms.

But according to Guinness World Records, the largest Boston lobster weighs 20.14 kilograms and measures 1.06 meters from the tail to the tip of the chela.

It was caught off Nova Scotia, Canada in 1977, and it is also the heaviest marine crustacean in the world.

Their body color is normally olive green or greenish-brown, and orange, reddish-brown or black individuals are not hard to see.

However, only about 1 in 2 million lobsters have a blue body color, and the yellow mutant lobster is even rarer, with a chance of about 1 in 30 million.

And unlike other species of lobster, Boston lobsters have two large, fleshy claws that weigh about 15% of the lobster's weight. The first step is a pair of large chelae, one side of which is slightly larger than the other, with a smooth body surface and thinner antennae.

Seeing that although this guy is constantly waving his big claws, he is also constantly retreating, looking at the posture, and he wants to run away as soon as his tail rolls.

Qin Xu is a little anxious now, good guy, you have sent it to the door, can you still run away?

So Qin Xu reached over directly and picked up this guy from behind.

Although this guy's strength in the water is not small, compared to the current Qin Xu, it is really not enough to see.

Still waving the big claw in his hand, and constantly jumping, Qin Xu turned to look at the second daughter, smiled and pointed at the lobster, then at himself, and finally at the fishing boat above.

After the second daughter nodded to show that she understood, Qin Xu turned around and swam towards it.

However, after just floating about two meters, Qin Xu felt a little tightness in his chest, so he remembered the precautions that Will had explained, and quickly stopped the action of floating.

After feeling better, Qin Xu slowly swam over again, this time he didn't dare to forget Will's reminder, that is, the speed of the float, not faster than the bubbles that were inhaled, otherwise it would be easy to have an accident.

"Wow"

With the sound of rushing water, Qin Xu emerged from the water. After moving his body slightly, he took off his mask and took a few breaths of fresh air.

Although I brought an air bottle, after all, that thing was only used for diving, and there was always a feeling of suffocation, how could I be free to breathe comfortably.

"Hey, boss, how's it going?"

Seeing Qin Xu come out, Simon, who stayed on the fishing ground, asked with some concern.

"It's okay, I'm fine, by the way, Simon, help me get a net. ”

Rejecting Simon's idea of wanting to pull him ashore, Qin Xu raised the lobster in his hand with a smile and said excitedly.

"Well, okay, that's a big guy. But, boss, why are you catching this? It's not delicious. ”

After agreeing, Simon glanced at Qin Xu with some confusion, there are a lot of these things in Boston, and no one usually eats them.

Qin Xu's originally high enthusiasm was suddenly poured down by this guy with a basin of cold water.

What is good in your own eyes, but it is not delicious in the eyes of others?

But thinking about it, Qin Xu was relieved again, this is the same as you going to the place where apples are produced to buy apples, that is the same reason.

Moreover, these foreigners are originally tyrannical creatures, and they don't know how to eat so many good things, so they are really hopeless.

"Alright, hurry up and find me a net, I'm going to go down." ”

Waving his hand, Qin Xu interrupted Simon's rambling words and said urgingly.

After Simon found a few net pockets and threw them down, Qin Xu threw this guy who was still jumping around.

Then he carried a net bag and dived to the bottom of the sea again.

When I got below, I found Dale and the second daughter together, thinking that I found myself coming up to protect the second daughter.

Raised the net bag in his hand at Dale, then handed her a few, pointed to a few guys next to her, and motioned for her to send them one by one, but the province picked up good things but had nowhere to pocket.

After Dale left, Qin Xu took Xu Mengyao's little hand, and the two of them got into the coral group, and began to look for it slowly, rolling their eyes at Su Rui behind them.

But after looking around, it was a pair of two, and she had to follow again.

Not to mention, maybe it was really because of the place of origin, Qin Xu led the second daughter to go around in a small circle in the coral group, and actually caught five or six big lobsters.

And look at that head, it's not small, it's more than thirty centimeters, and now Qin Xu and the two women are almost unable to find the north.

After all, its value is still secondary, mainly because this way of catching shrimp is too special, and the three of them are trying it for the first time, and they are a little happy for a while. (To be continued.) )
