"I'm sorry, man, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have questioned you just now, my perception is still too narrow, obviously, there are many people in this world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Brother Wolf looked at the owner of the ship and then at his daughter, then he reached out and stroked his daughter's hair, and said slowly, "I forgive you." ”

"Thank you."

The owner of the ship left such a sentence, and then went back to the wheelhouse, and he did not come out again for the whole night.

After spending the night at sea as usual and watching the sunrise over the sea, Li Du and the others returned to shore and left Golden Island for Melbourne on a clipper.

Oo, Godzilla, Hannah and others went to Melbourne to visit and travel, while Li Du, Hans, Brother Wolf and Sophie, who was equipped with Li Du, went to learn to dive.

They signed up for a crash course in diving, and the instructor of this course was named David Mullins, a diving expert from the southern hemisphere and a famous person in the history of the sport of diving.

The majestic sea has always been a good man's journey, and the Australian ocean has particularly clear turquoise waters and a colorful underwater world, attracting countless diving enthusiasts every year to explore and linger.

Many countries have niche sports, such as ice hockey in Canada, cricket in India, table tennis in China, etc., and Australia also has this sport, that is, diving.

Diving can be roughly divided into three modes, snorkeling, deep diving, and freediving.

One of the easiest is snorkeling, as the name suggests, this sport is that people are floating on the water, with the help of snorkels and fins.

Deep diving mainly refers to scuba diving, which uses a compressed air bottle to breathe underwater.

At this stage, you can enter the underwater world and see more wonderful ocean scenery than snorkeling.

Deep diving is more complicated than snorkeling, you need to wear diving equipment, you also need to know some diving skills, you must be accompanied by an instructor under the sea, you can try to get a diving certificate if you want to experience the fun of diving at a deeper level.

These two types of diving are the most common and relatively less difficult, but it is not them that Li Du and Hans want to learn, but freediving.

Freediving refers to the sport of diving as deep as possible without carrying an air tank and only holding your breath through your own lung capacity, which is already an extreme sport.

Relatively speaking, freediving requires the highest level of experience, not only to have rich diving experience, but also to have super physical fitness.

Li Du meets half of the requirements, he has no diving experience, but he has super physical fitness.

Hans was used as a waste wood in the sport, he was not in good shape and did not have a lot of diving experience.

The four of them signed up for the class together, spending close to $10,000 in total and getting personal access to the renowned dive instructor David Malins.

The big man holds two of the eight world records in freediving, and has achieved in the other six, many of which are in the top five or three of the records, although they have not won the record.

After they signed up, the freediving assistant took them directly to the training ship in Malins.

David Mullins was a young white man, tall and tall, not much shorter than Godzilla, and he had to be two meters tall.

He is very good in shape, that is, a streamlined type specially born for the ocean, with a tiger's back and a bee's waist, muscular and not exaggerated, standing on the bow of the ship facing the hunting sea breeze, with his own style.

Shaking hands to introduce themselves, Malins then asked, "Why did you learn to freedive?" ”

Hans laughed, "For love, man, we love the ocean." ”

His answer did not satisfy Malins, and the big young man said seriously: "I need real answers, and then I will teach them according to their aptitude." ”

"Does it make a difference?" Hans asked.

"Of course, there are a lot of differences, but if you really love freediving, I'll teach you how to dive professionally," says Mullins. ”

"If you want to catch the attention of a hot girl with freediving, I'll teach you how to maintain a good posture and cool tricks in the water."

"If you're freediving for abalone, sea cucumber fishing, lobster fishing, etc., then I'm going to teach you how to protect yourself."

Listening to Malins' patient introduction, Li Du said: "We are the last one, we are abalone fishermen, and we have to learn how to dive and catch abalone." ”

In many countries, wild abalone is caught by hand, but tools such as oxygen cylinders and underwater electric knives can be used, which are not allowed in Australia.

Therefore, Li Du and they can only free dive, not deep diving in the general sense.

Receiving the answer, Malins nodded in understanding.

Then he said, "Do you really want to risk your life to make money? Before I start studying, I have to tell you that freediving is called the second most dangerous sport in the world by Forbes, and at least ten people die every year because of it. ”

Hans spread his hands and said: "We don't need to be so dangerous, we don't dive to a depth of tens or even hundreds of meters, just ten meters." ”

Li Du thought of the depth of the water where the Black Gold Bao ethnic group was distributed, and said: "Ten meters is not enough, at least twenty-five meters." ”

"Does it need to be that deep?" Hans was surprised.

Li Du said: "Of course, the abalone in shallow waters has long been caught, and if we want to make money, we have to go to a deeper place to take risks." ”

Hanston was a little hesitant, he had adventure in his veins, but he knew his physical condition and was worried that he would not be able to bear it.

Malins comforted him, "It's okay, man, I have a special diving training cheat for the Bajau tribe in Malaysia, I can teach you if you want, and you can swim freely at a depth of forty meters in a week." ”

Hans was surprised: "And such a powerful cheat? ”

Brother Wolf, who had been silent, spoke up at this time and said, "First of all, you have to puncture your eardrum, are you sure?" ”

Malins looked at him in amazement and said, "How do you know?" ”

Hans was distraught and exclaimed, "Leave it to mind how he knows, it's true?" Do you have to puncture your eardrum to dive? ”

Malins waved his hand and smiled: "I'm joking, but if you really want to learn this hand, you really have to puncture your eardrum, and the people of the Bajau tribe are all deaf, which is a pity." ”

Hans became frustrated, and said helplessly: "This is not good, I can't hurt my body for diving, is there any other trick?" ”

Malins patted him on the shoulder intimately and comforted him: "Don't think too much, enjoy the fun that the ocean brings you, I will take you to start snorkeling, then you will find that your passion for the sea is far more than floating on the sea, you will unconsciously want to go deeper, to know more about the ocean." ”
