Chapter 240: The Sea Leaps Wide

The Arrow completed the first operation of this real voyage, from fishing four sets of fishing gear from the sea and then hanging the bait back into the sea again, the whole process took a full six hours. By the time they had done this, the four sailors on deck were panting from exhaustion.

"It's a beautiful night tonight!".

It could not have been the sailors on the deck who had been busy for hours, but the captain who sat in the cabin from time to time and felt tired of sitting and went out for two turns.

In Bei Hai's opinion, today's moonlight is really charming, the disc-sized moon hangs high on the sea level, and then sprinkles silver roads on the seawater. The cold moonlight shone on the sky and the sea, and almost the intersection between the water and the sky was translucent, and Bei Hai felt that he had never seen such a beautiful moonlight.

Sitting on his large chair, Bei Hai posed a posture of looking up at the moon, and was stunned and wanted to pull out one or two poems from his mind to express his state of mind at this time.

"Hey!" Bei Hai finally sighed and said self-deprecatingly: "Can buddy only describe the disc-sized moon hanging in the air like a piece of cake!" ”。

Just when Bei Hai was full of people here and wanted to express his poetic feelings, the door of the bridge was pushed open.

Matt stretched his head into the cabin slightly, and regardless of whether he was in the captain's position now with a rhinoceros looking at the moon or the old cow drinking water, he opened his mouth and said, "Captain, is there anything else?" ”。

"Nothing on deck?" Bei Hai asked rhetorically.

Seeing Matt nodded, he said, "Then you guys should rest early!" ”。

"Hmm!" Matt had come to say a routine hello to the captain, and by the time Matt had arrived, the remaining three deckmen had already reached their cabins.

Behai watched as Matt was about to leave. Immediately added: "There is still a little meat slice or something in the kitchen, if anyone is hungry, they can eat it." And the three-fresh fried rice that I fried in the evening! ”。

After being busy for such a long time and almost non-stop, who still has the heart to eat, now for Matt, the closest thing to the four of them is not food, of course, it is impossible to be the captain of Bei Hai. Now the most pleasing thing to the eyes of the four of them is the small sailor's bed in their cabin.

Matt now listened to Bei Hai's words, nodded directly, waved his hand, didn't even want to say more, and took the door and prepared to go back to sleep on his own head.

The door slammed shut, but it quickly opened again.

"That's right, Captain! The ball is back, and the killer whales from last time! Matt closed the door again.

Only then did Bei Hai hear the sound of clicking footsteps, which disappeared into his ears from near and far.

Hearing that the fritters brought the troublemakers and their families to the side of the boat, Bei Hai felt that it was better to go out and have fun with everyone than to be alone. Thinking of this, Bei Hai directly lifted his canvas recliner from his bridge, pushed open the door, and walked towards the deck.

The little sister who was squatting on the back of the seat and napping in the seat glanced at Bei Hai, then shook her head and followed out with fluttering wings.

As soon as he got off the bridge, Bei Hai found that the ball was biting a fish at this time, and seemed to treat this poor fish as a small toy.

The fish jumping on the deck immediately aroused the interest of the little sister. Although the fish didn't eat the fish, it jumped to the side of the ball, and then as soon as the fish stopped, he pecked it with his mouth, and the fish moved immediately as soon as it was in pain.

There was a very sinister laugh on the deck. Two villains, one big and one small, are bullying the poor cod.

The disgusting laughter of the little sister did not affect Bei Hai's mood, and now Bei Hai has put down his chaise longue on the deck, sitting on it with his hands behind his head, looking at the full moon in the sky and continuing to admire his own moon. Although the weather outside was a little cold, it did not affect the captain's turbulent heart in the slightest.

Bei Hai looked at the moon here, first remembered the matter of marrying his daughter-in-law, and then remembered his parents a little because of the big disc-like moon. As soon as he thought of his parents, Bei Hai couldn't help but sigh a little.

It stands to reason that now that he has money, his parents may stay at home and enjoy the blessings. However, for Bei Yuanming and his wife, they have just passed fifty years old, and it is not a matter of retiring now, and they came during the New Year, and after a while, they shouted to go back.

Here, as soon as Bei Hai thought of his parents, he couldn't help but feel longing through this moonlight, and after a while, Bei Hai's eyes were a little moist.

Gently wiping his face twice, Bei Hai stood up from his chair: "When the fishing season is over, you have to go back home first!" ”。 Since his parents came to the United States for the Chinese New Year, Bei Hai has never seen the second elder face-to-face. Because I have been dragged down by my own big plans, I have been floating on this Atlantic Ocean for almost most of the time, and now I suddenly miss it for some reason.

Just when Bei Hai was looking at the moon and feeling homesick, bursts of silver light suddenly appeared on the sea surface, and the stars on the sea covered by the night moon moved to the sea like the starry sky in the night.

As a fisherman, Bei Hai knows that this is not an illusion. There's a big school of fish nearby! Just by looking at the reflection of the fish's body, you can judge that this school of fish is very large, but the size of the single body is very small, at most it will not exceed the size of the cod that Xiao Taimei and Piwa are playing with now. That is, about thirty or forty centimeters.

Soon, this group of bright spots moved from a distance to the side of the arrow, and Bei Hai couldn't help but straighten his head and look into the water.

The whole school of fish has a fearless spirit, from far and near. Then it passed under the hull of the Arrow, and even the Troublemakers didn't scare off the huge school of fish, let alone the Arrow.

Of course, if it was a trawler, or a purse seine fishing boat, it would have been crazy for the captain to see such a scene. Anyway, all the eyes of Bei Hai are big pomfrets, big pomfret more than forty centimeters! Unfortunately, the Arrow was neither a trawler nor a purse seine ship, and could only watch as such a large school of fish slipped away from under its hull. And it's endless.

Bei Hai turned on the searchlight on the ship, threw the huge light into the water, and found that the whole school of fish was moving in the water, like a beautiful chain, with fish tails connected to fish heads, and it seemed that there were countless neatly arranged teams passing by his hull. When Bei Hai tried to move the searchlight a little farther, he wanted to see how wide the fish were, but unfortunately the power of Bei Hai's searchlight was not so large, or maybe Bei Hai's eyesight as a human was limited.

"Fish!" After watching for about four minutes, Bei Hai rolled up his sleeves with his straight hands, began to hold a long pole net pocket, stretched out of the water, and began to catch big pomfret, the whole school of fish is really too much, although it cannot be said that a net goes down, a fish comes up, but as long as the speed is fast enough, there will always be one net.

After fishing a few times, Bei Hai seemed to feel that it was not enjoyable to use the net pocket, so he directly began to use the space. After fishing two or three times in a row, it is estimated that there are not 1,000 large pomfret and 800 large pomfret into the space.

Bei Hai was satisfied with the fishing, and when he raised his head, he saw a dorsal fin on the sea not far away, this dorsal fin is not like the dorsal fin of a shark or killer whale, this dorsal fin is very long, almost extending from the head of the fish to the tail of the fish, and the fins are also very high, almost higher than the body of the fish, and the back is like a sail erected by the body of the fish on the sea.

Sailfish! Bei Hai knew what it was, the same long beak and body shape similar to that of swordfish belonging to the same family, but the sail-like dorsal fin on their back revealed their names. Now these swordfish are undoubtedly gluttonous in the sea, for these swordfish, such a school of fish is equivalent to a mouse falling into a rice tank, and a rabbit falling into a botanical garden.

Bei Hai, who was standing on the deck, also witnessed the excited speechless body language of this group of sailfish, and from time to time a swordfish jumped high from the sea. Under the moonlight, the body of the swordfish emitted a bewitching silver light, and the silver spots on the body formed a silver ray from the back to the belly on the fish, and it jumped vertically out of the sea for a few meters and then suddenly fell back.

As soon as one fell and the other rose, the whole sea seemed to rise as if a myriad of small bright lights had risen, so that Bei Hai felt that the moon was hanging in the sky, but the stars had fallen into the ocean.

It is difficult for Bei Hai to describe the current scene, the only thing he knows is that he encountered the scene of sailfish hunting, and it is a large school of sailfish! Gradually, some other predatory fish joined in.

A feast of the sea began. (To be continued......)
