Chapter 421 [Salvage Tridacnis]

At this time, Yang Yong was very excited, just like when he went to Alaska to hunt, but this time it was a little different to hunt in the sea. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info And the prey will not run or camouflage, the people waiting to fish it out of the sea, although Yang Yong is in the offshore position, the water depth is only twenty meters, but it is not easy to fish a giant clams weighing hundreds of kilograms from the sea.

Moreover, the silk foot of the clams has grown for hundreds of years, which can be said to be tougher than steel wires, not to mention that this clams are too long. The shells on both sides were already stuck in the reef, and it was not easy to get them out. Fortunately, although Zhang Lan is small, it has all kinds of equipment, and everything is available.

So when it was discovered that the clams were stuck in the middle of the reef, the crew began to look for a variety of tools, including hydraulic tongs, as well as primitive tools such as crowbars. The most bizarre tools are actually several, pockets like small parachutes, and they are also treated with a special coating, which is impermeable to water and breathable.

It is very interesting to salvage and catch clams, to be honest, Yang Yong has never seen hundreds of kilograms of shell creatures when he is so old, and he is very curious. Fortunately, there are many sets of diving equipment, so Yang Yong plans to personally dive and lead his subordinates to fish up this big clams.

In ancient times and in modern times, men were the main force of hunting, and women were the main force of cooking. So hunting is the work of men, it has been deeply rooted in the genes of men, and men are a wonderful combination with fire and meat. The chemistry is even more exciting than between men and women, and it may be that men have killing genes in their blood, so they are excited when they hear the word hunting.

Since the clams are more than one meter in diameter and about 80 centimeters wide, they are embedded in the reef like a millstone. The preliminary estimate of the weight reached hundreds of kilograms, and this estimate is still a very conservative estimate, and no one knows the real weight. Because the clams are stuck in the middle of the two classrooms, we can't tell how big the lower part is and how big it is.

So the men who went into the water together were more than ten people, and they all had all kinds of tools in their hands. When I went down to the sea, the water was very clear and the visibility was very good, and the first mate, who swam in the sea for a while, used sign language to inform the people behind him that they had found a clams. Then he pointed to the middle of the two large reefs, and it was then that Yang Yong saw the true face of the clams.

Although it has been given many legendary colors, it is a very long-lived shellfish. It is a similar creature to the scallop oyster, with two shells separated from the left and right, but the opening part will have a wave-like shape. Because the clams are so fat, they can't completely close the two wavy shells, and the shape of the clams is very much like a chubby dumpling.

But don't be fooled by the appearance of the clams, because they are dangerous creatures in the sea. Although the clams cannot move around, they are hundreds of kilograms in size, and their two thick shells are very powerful. If someone is unfortunate enough to dive with one foot still at the opening of the two scallops of the clams, the two shells of the clams will immediately tighten and add the diver's feet together.

You can imagine the oppressive force of hundreds of kilograms of two shells added together, not to mention the soles and calves of people, even the leg of a cow will be broken by the clams and bones for a while, and then lead to drowning, so the clams camouflaged to the sea creatures are a very dangerous crustacean.

Yang Yong slowly swam to the top of the clams, and the more he looked closely, the more he wanted to laugh, because this clams were too fat. Only one opening was exposed to the rock, and all the rest of the body was stuck in the grooves of the two rocks.

There are many sea creatures attached to the clams shells, and there are blue bands of light around the edges of the two shells. Yang Yong knew that the blue dots of light were the symbiotic algae of the clams, which could produce food for themselves with these microorganisms. Like all shellfish, clams are filter feeders, and although they have glasses, their eyesight does not seem to be very good, and they can only feel the changes in light and cannot see the scenery outside.

Now that the target was found, everyone went into action, and some of them took hydraulic tongs and began to cut all the reefs on both sides of the clams little by little. Then there were people with crowbars, and there were people with sledgehammers and they started beating these rocks. The rocks are actually rocks that have been pushed by coral reefs that have just died over the years, and the clams are stuck there.

Therefore, the rocks formed by the coral reef are very soft, and as soon as you peel off a large piece, the bottom of the sea is suddenly clear, and the visibility plummets into a miasma. There is no way to do it, because there is sand and all kinds of material that has accumulated over the years, and the sediment will drift around if the sea stirs it slightly.

Visibility will only slowly be restored until the natural flow of seawater carries away the sediment, and there is another way like Yang Yong's now. Use the propeller on the top of the small underwater vehicle to aim at the operation site, and then two people will resist the submarine together, and use the maximum power to blow away the water at the construction site with the propeller, so that the clear state can be restored.

Although the reef formed by the coral reef is very fragile, it is not easy to get this clams out. Coupled with the resistance of the water, the operation of prying open the rock is very unreasonable, but fortunately, one person is tired, and the other person is on top, and he always works uninterruptedly.

Finally, half an hour later, the chubby body of the chubby clams finally appeared in front of the people. As expected, the silk feet of the clams were firmly attached to the rock, and the color of these silk feet was very red. The thinnest is as thick as a human thumb, and the filamentous feet of these shellfish are already comparable to the tenacity of steel wires of the same specification.

Next, cutting these silk feet is the most difficult, at this time, no one flinched, all gathered in a circle, took the tools in their hands, pouted their butts, and began to clean these silk feet with the strength of steel wire. Because of Smith's great strength, he was responsible for shaking the clams back and forth with both hands, which gradually loosened the clams from the rocks.

Yang Yong grew so big, he had never seen such a big crustacean, and he was very excited and worked very hard for more than ten minutes. The clams finally broke away from the rocks, but the big clams were so heavy that they rolled into the sea at once, but fortunately, the clams were very strong and undamaged. At this time, Yang Yong realized what was the effect of another parachute-like thing? It turned out that this thing was a crane in the sea, and he tied the parachute rope to the clams, and then opened the oxygen tank to fill the parachute with oxygen, and then floated up little by little.

A total of four small parachutes can float a hundred-pound clams from the bottom of the sea little by little. Then Zhang Lan drove to Yang Yong's side, and then used the small crane on the boat to fish the clams from the sea and toss back and forth for more than an hour.

The giant crustacean the size of a grinding disc finally appeared on the deck, although it looked disgusting with a lot of sea creatures attached to it. However, the huge size of the clams still brought a huge sense of oppression, and Yang Yong even lamented that the creatures in the sea really couldn't be understood by common sense, and it was incredible that there were such large crustaceans.
