Chapter 763: Sunfish Came to the Fishing Ground (Ask for Subscription)
The birthday party ended not long after Taotao chose the gold ingot, and when his father invited Father Mei to watch their beloved things, it didn't take long to hear his father shouting loudly: "Taotao, this must be done by Xiao Taotao, this is not easy to destruct such a small child, no, this time we must teach him a good lesson......
Gu Hongyu knew that the big thing was not good, he would have run away a long time ago, according to the usual results, Taotao would not be punished, and Gu Hongyu wanted to find the best bluegrass and other potted plants for his father again, who let him have this magical ability!
Taotao, who is one year old, has completely become a little overlord in the villa, except for Lele and Hai Dongqing, who can fly, other cute pets in the family walk around when they see him from afar.
If you can't afford to provoke, you can always afford to hide, this idea is the countermeasure taken by all the cute pets in the family.
And the plant hall suffered a devastation from Taotao and was also protected by my father and Mei's father, and a wrought iron gate was installed in the aisle into the plant hall, which was closed with a big lock when no one was there on weekdays, which was also to prevent Taotao's troublemaking!
Fortunately, the area of the villa is very large, and there are many places for Taotao to play, just like the lawn, garden, and hot spring swimming pool near the bottom of the building, which can basically make the active Taotao stay for half a day.
Jingle Bell ......
On an early autumn afternoon, Gu Hongyu's mobile phone, which was lying on his back on the lawn to collect the gentle sunshine, suddenly rang.
Picking up the phone before Taotao, who was crawling quickly towards the phone, Gu Hongyu looked at the call. The call was from the second cousin: "Second brother, is there something going on in the fishing ground now?" ”
"Hehe, I'm taking care of the kids again. I said that you are too idle all day except to take care of the children, come to the fishing ground, just now Xiao Liu observed the seabed near the island, and the fishing ground seems to have a big guy coming in. The second cousin said excitedly.
Big? Gu Hongyu muttered in his heart, because of the variety of creatures in the fishing grounds, they can often attract large predators in the ocean, but these guys generally refer to dolphins, whales, wild large tuna, and occasionally giant jellyfish and squid.
But look at the mysterious way the second cousin speaks. What's different about the guy who enters the fishing ground this time?
"What big guy got into our fishing grounds?" Gu Hongyu asked into the phone.
"Sunfish, we watched the video replay just now, and they were two adult sunfish. Weighs at least more than a ton. The second cousin said categorically.
"Well, okay, I'll go to the fishing ground right away, and you guys keep an eye on the sunfish." After saying to the mobile phone, Gu Hongyu immediately hung up. And Xiao Taotao on the side stretched out his little hand and touched the phone. This kind of vocalizing guy aroused his curiosity.
Gu Hongyu smiled and stuffed the mobile phone into Taotao's hand, then hugged him and said, "Taotao, I'll send you to grandma to play, and Dad will come back as soon as he finishes running errands, okay?" ”
"Well, okay, I'm playing with my grandma, and it's not fun with my dad at all!" Taotao said cutely.
This reply made Gu Hongyu cry and laugh, and gently scraped the bridge of Taotao's little nose: "You really don't know what to do." Whose father spends all day at home with his children, and now he doesn't remember me at all. ”
Come to the large living room at the bottom of the villa. Mei's mother went to a community school, and if her mother was in Australia, she would usually be here, accompanied by some employee families from China, who knitted sweaters, chatted about homely things, and occasionally played small cards, and were very leisurely.
Gu Hongyu told his mother what he meant, and his mother, who was playing cards, immediately put down the stacked mahjong in her hand, and let another woman who was similar to her take over the position, and picked up Xiao Taotao, and said in her mouth: "If you have something, go and get busy, Taotao is here, we look fine." ”
Walking through the crowded beach, Gu Hongyu casually found a rubber boat and broke through the calm sea.
Offshore waters, where the water is crystal clear and deep enough to be a few meters deep, many tourists like to swim in it or rent a rubber boat to swim in the calm bay.
However, ordinary people do not rely on rubber boats without mechanical power to row to an island a few kilometers away, and today I watched Gu Hongyu swing the oars at a very fast speed with the strength of his arms, and immediately greeted the whistles and cheers of other tourists.
"Hey, that's great!"
"That gentleman's physical strength was awesome, and he barely stopped paddling from the shore."
"Hehe, guess what I found, the person who rowed the rubber boat just now was actually the ancient boss of this farm, he was an Oriental Chinese, so I saw it very clearly."
“……”
Gu Hongyu didn't care about the exclamations of other tourists on the sea, rowed the rubber boat from the shore to one of the islands, and then threw the boat to an employee of the island and walked to the duty room built on the island after saying a few words to him.
"Hey, have you tracked the sunfish now?" Looking at the second cousin and several other employees in the duty room, Gu Hongyu asked.
The second cousin smiled: "It's always under our control, it's really thanks to the fact that you set up a lot of underwater cameras in the fishing grounds." ”
"Then show me the pictures and videos of the sunfish, I haven't really seen this kind of big guy yet!" Gu Hongyu said.
Sunfish (scientific name: Molamola), also known as sunfish, mambo fish, head fish, is the general name of three species of oceanic fish in the class Bony Fish, Molidae. It is distributed in various tropical and subtropical oceans. It is also found in temperate or boreal oceans.
Sunfish are large oceanic fish with a maximum body length of 3. 0~5。 5m, weighing up to 1400~3500kg. Swim alone or in pairs, sometimes more than ten in groups, small individual fish are more lively, often jump out of the water, large individual fish move slowly, often lie on the surface of the water, or dorsal fin is exposed to the surface, can also dive into more than 100 meters of deep water.
They feed on seaweed, molluscs, jellyfish, planktonic crustaceans and small fish.
The number of eggs is very large, up to 300 million, which is the largest number of eggs among fish. Juveniles have nodulous spinous processes that fade with age. The body becomes oval.
The sunfish is a giant relative of the puffer fish family and is the heaviest species of all bony fish, weighing up to 3,000 kilograms.
Back in the 30s. Gogg, a ichthyologist at the American Museum of Natural History, has studied sunfish and declared that the giant sunfish is the growth champion of the animal kingdom. They have only 0 juveniles. It is 25 centimeters long, and when it grows to an adult fish, it can reach 3 meters long, and its weight is 60 million times higher than that of juvenile fish.
At this time, the employees also found a video of the sunfish entering the fishing ground, in which Gu Hongyu clearly saw that the two very large sunfish entered the fishing ground.
The entire boundary of the fishing grounds here is cut off from the open sea by fishing nets, and it is hard to imagine how these two giant sunfish managed to find this passage between the islands.
"These two guys are big enough. I think it's at least a ton or more, Hongyu, what do you think they do when they enter our fishing grounds? The second cousin asked.
Gu Hongyu thought for a while and said, "Although the sunfish is very big. However, they have a very gentle personality, and their diet is mainly jellyfish and zooplankton, and they usually eat crustaceans, sea stingers, and seaweed, which does not have much impact on our fishing grounds. I think it's better to leave them in the fishing grounds. ”
"Alas. I thought I would have a chance to taste the meat of the sunfish this time, but I don't know if the meat is good or not! An employee said regretfully after hearing Gu Hongyu's words.
"Eat, eat, eat, know to eat, usually I don't know that there are few things in your scourge fishing grounds, you can dive if you have nothing to do, and you still eat less scallops, lobsters, and sea crabs on the bottom of the fishing ground!" The second cousin said with a smile.
Gu Hongyu also smiled, these employees are all foodies, and they occasionally dive to catch some fish, shrimp and crabs in the fishery on weekdays. Gu Hongyu often turns a blind eye, anyway, the employees who stick to the island are usually bored at work. Besides, how much they can lose by eating some seafood by themselves, all kinds of creatures in the whole fishery grow too fast, and they will also kill the fish, shrimp and crabs at the bottom of the biological chain if they don't eat other large fish.
Several employees were embarrassed by the second cousin and lowered their heads silently, Gu Hongyu looked at this situation and was happy, it seems that the second cousin is still very authoritative in management!
So he said on the side: "Let's go and see what the sunfish are doing in the fishing grounds, you still have a chance to eat sunfish in the future, because there are two sunfish this time, maybe there will be many more in the future!" ”
"Yes, our fishing grounds are so good now, there are a lot of pesky jellyfish in it, this is the favorite of sunfish, and sunfish will definitely be attracted by jellyfish!" Observer Xiao Liu suddenly became happy.
Before seeing the overturned car in person, there was still no specific concept of what tons and tons of fish were in Gu Hongyu's mind.
When everyone drove a motorized boat to find the two sunfish in the fishing ground, it was not until this moment that Gu Hongyu knew the huge size of the sunfish, they were lying lazily on the surface of the water before, like a huge piece of driftwood floating on the sea.
At this time, a lot of information about the sunfish surfaced in Gu Hongyu's mind, because the body of the sunfish is flat like a pomfret, it can use its flat body shape to lie leisurely on the sea, and reduce its own proportion by swallowing air.
In good weather, these fish can sometimes be seen lying flat on one side as if they were sleeping on the surface of the sea, drifting with the waves on one side, and unfamiliar people will think they are dead, as they see at the moment.
Adult sunfish are generally larger.
However, although the meat of this fish looks white and delicate, and the liver contains useful fat, the fly in the ointment is that the cooked fish meat tastes poor and even annoying, so the sunfish is not actually an ideal food for humans, of course, it also depends on the cooking techniques of the foodies, and the foodies with superb cooking skills will have an absolute advantage in handling the ingredients.
The sunfish emits a strange light, and at night, various parts of its body glisten, making people mistake it for fire or some kind of luminous object.
After research and analysis, it is believed that this is due to the slight oscillation of its body and fins, which causes the light emitted by the layer of noctilucent insects surrounding it in the water.
At night at sea, its glittering body surface looks like the moon reflected on the sea, so people call it "moon fish". It is also because it often turns its body over and lies on its side on the surface of the sea and floats in the wind, so people call it a sunfish.
It may be that Gu Hongyu's approach made the two sunfish feel uneasy, and before the motor boat approached, the two fish erected their flat bodies and broke through the sea water and dived, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Alas, escaped, what two big men." The second cousin took a few photos with his mobile phone and said regretfully.
Gu Hongyu smiled lightly: "It's okay, there is a lot of food in the fishing ground, these two big men will definitely be happy after they come, this will be their home in the future, and they probably won't think about leaving!" ”
coincides with Gu Hongyu's thoughts, these two adult sunfish really plan to settle down in the fishing grounds.
In the days that followed, the staff and tourists of the fishery saw the sunfish from time to time, sometimes the two guys jumped out of the water, sometimes they were chasing the jellyfish in the fishery, and sometimes it was like a large floating object floating on the surface of the sea to bask in the sun.
With the passage of time, the sunfish has become a beautiful scenery in the fishing grounds, not only many tourists come to sightsee, but even some TV stations and website reporters have brought equipment to record the life of the sunfish in the fishing grounds.
Gu Hongyu didn't expect that the appearance of sunfish would bring such good news to the farm.
Not only that, although a lot of leatherback turtles were introduced to eliminate jellyfish in the fishing grounds, but the reproductive ability of jellyfish is really strong enough, although dozens of leatherback turtles have eaten enough jellyfish in the fishing grounds, the previous small size was actually several times bigger, but I didn't expect the number of jellyfish to decrease rapidly.
Time has been slowly passing, and no one in the entire fishery has seen any changes.
However, on this day, Gu Hongyu, who has been paying attention to the fishing ground, used his divine sense to discover the secret of the sunfish in the fishing ground.
In a certain sea water in the fishing ground, two sunfish are followed by countless small fish, and those small fish are actually small sunfish with a length of only a few centimeters.
The small sunfish shuttles through the seaweed-covered waters led by two large fish, but the two large sunfish also fanned their fins against the surrounding water from time to time, because from time to time some other fish in the seaweed bushes took the small sunfish as prey.
It wasn't until this moment that Gu Hongyu knew that the reason why the two big sunfish came to the fishing ground was because they used it as a place to breed their offspring.
Although their offspring may be killed by groupers and tuna in the fishing grounds here, compared to the outside world, Gu Hongyu's fishing grounds have abundant food and calm currents, and the number of small sunfish will survive. (To be continued.) )
