Chapter 373: The Greatest Natural Enemy
"Running for your life? Unlikely."
Bei Hai just wanted to say this, but unfortunately the words came to his lips but Lauren preempted him, this kid held the side of the boat and stretched out his head to look at the light red shadows under the sea, and now these squid seem to have changed color one by one into small underwater bulbs, and the body began to light, and the whole school of squid is bigger than what Bei Hai saw in front of him, and they are all swimming in the same direction.
Frank didn't even look at Lauren and observed the squid school in the water intently, as if he was in common knowledge, and said: "These fish glow as if they make themselves look a little bigger and more ferocious, this is a very common means of intimidating natural predators in natural creatures, and common squids also use such methods, such as changing the color of their bodies, or becoming more conducive to concealing themselves, or making themselves look more fierce to achieve the purpose of scaring off opponents, These squids change their color to make themselves look a little more vibrant, and in my experience it is likely that their natural predators have appeared in the area."
Listening to the old man say this, Bei Hai has already contacted the earth dogs in the water, and through their eyes, let's see what kind of monsters will appear in the sea to make these brainless two hundred and five squid afraid, you must know that these goods can even fight a group of killer whales, could it be that the old man used to talk about the big whales?
The earth dog swam in the sea in the opposite direction of the squid school for a while, Bei Hai didn't find any other powerful fish or anything else, and when he saw that there was nothing underwater, Bei Hai couldn't help but start to despise the old man Frank a little: still a natural enemy? There is no natural predator for underwater hair! The old man is not going to use his knowledge to fool me.
Just as Bei Hai was slandering the old man Frank, the earth dog suddenly became a little excited. Bei Hai immediately felt the excitement of the earth dog, and immediately let it swim towards it according to his consciousness, swimming less than half a mile away. Bei Hai finally saw a group of things swimming towards him.
After waiting for this group of things to approach, Bei Hai understood what this was. It's nothing else, it's the lobsters of the space, the size of this group of lobsters, it's really a big one, and when I look at it, Bei Hai understands that these so-called Marbury blue dragons are the ones they threw down, not the second and third generations that have been bred in the sea.
After these lobsters saw the earth dog, there was actually such a thing from time to time next to the earth dog, rubbing the body of the earth dog, although it was a small movement, but Bei Hai could still feel a trace of happiness and excitement from the earth dog. However, these lobsters only made a small move, and the whole lobster group continued to move forward rapidly.
When the lobster group was about to pass through, Bei Hai found a thing, that is, the group of lobsters he met had a characteristic, that is, there were some 'bubbles' hanging on the tail, as long as everyone said it, everyone would understand the lobster roe. That is, at least most of this group of lobsters are female lobsters.
The area where the lobsters swim in the water is far away from the sea, so Frank and the sailors are still unaware of the appearance of these lobsters, and Bei Hai is very interested in the behavior of these female lobsters and orders the earth dog to follow them to see what the female lobsters are trying to do.
"Nothing," Dominic looked at the sea and couldn't see anything, and couldn't help but say to Frank: "Old professor, you won't be dazzled, right?" ”。
After a few days of getting along, the sailors knew that Frank, the old professor, had a childlike heart and was very talkative. There aren't so many twists and turns on everyone's side.
Frank glared at Dominic and said, "My judgment should not be wrong" After speaking, he asked Bei Hai: "Now that everyone's business is done, can you please drive the boat and follow this group of squid for a while, and the time will not be enough for an hour, and it will not delay your time."
"No problem!" Bei Hai also wanted to see what was going on, so he naturally agreed, and then prepared to go to the bridge to launch the arrow.
Matt spoke up at this time: "I said! As he spoke, he tapped on the old-fashioned watch on his wrist: "Didn't everyone say they wanted to eat?" After eating, you can do whatever you like, and we still have to sleep here! ”。
When Bei Hai heard this, he immediately raised his hand and made a gesture of hugging and earning: "I'm sorry!" Everything you eat is ready, and you can see it when you enter the cabin, if it's a little cold, you can hit it in the microwave, you eat first, and I'll go first."
After saying that, he ran towards the top of the ladder, and when he reached the door, he suddenly remembered this, turned to the handrail, and asked the scientific trio on the deck, "Can any of you stay and help me in the direction?" ”。
"I'll do it!" Frank said loudly to Bei Hai, and then raised his hand to his two students and waved it, signaling the two of them to go to dinner first.
Frank took the binoculars and stood on the tip of the bow of the ship, observing the direction of the squid in the water while correcting the course of the Arrow from time to time. And Bei Hai is the bridge of the boat, from time to time to pay attention to the direction of the lobster group followed by the earth dog. Soon, Bei Hai guessed that the lobster group was now chasing this group of green squid.
After about forty-five minutes of driving, the lobster school had already caught up with the squid school, and now not only Bei Hai but also those who stood on the deck to observe after eating a full meal saw this scene.
"Marbury Blue Dragon?" Jennifer, who was standing next to Frank, couldn't help but open his mouth as he looked at the giant blue lobster that turned up.
Frank pondered for a long time, and then seemed to figure out something, and said, "Now I say I can explain why I can see these strange squids appear."
"Oh!" When Bei Hai heard this, he immediately asked Frank, "Tell me about it."
"Follow my analysis. Marbury Blue Dragon is supposed to be an alien creature for the biosphere near the North Pole, at least in this area of my research for so many years, I have not found this kind of large and ice-blue lobster, and the king crab should have arrived in this place at about the same time. These two alien creatures have upset the current ecological balance. Instead, this squid must have lived on the bottom of this sea area. But now, because of the invasion of the Marbury Blue Dragon, this green squid has been put on its own menu. Then these squids escaped from their original habitat in order to survive......".
Looking at a few meters deep in the sea, a group of small 'tall' people waving huge pincers beat a small red lantern. It's the exact opposite of what I saw the day before. These big squid, who used to look extremely vicious, now seem to have become schoolchildren who are surrounded by hooligans outside the school and beaten in a group of corners. Almost all of these big squids could see the fierceness in front of them, and as long as they were surrounded by a few Marbury blue dragons, the original red fixed point quickly dimmed.
"Now the biosphere near the Arctic is under serious threat!" Frank looked at the small red dots of light that became dim one by one, and couldn't help but say a little worriedly: "Alien creatures such as the Marbury Blue Dragon and the King Crab have almost no natural enemies in this sea area, and their appearance has brought disaster ...... to the ecological balance here."
Belch! Bei Hai understood, that is, Frank, the old man, thought that the lobsters and crabs he put were doing nonsense here, and there was nothing to check and balance, so he was a little too demonic to make the old man, a compassionate marine biologist, a little unbearable. Of course, Bei Hai was not stupid enough to admit that these two things were put by himself, and he couldn't explain that he had formulated a set of money-making plans for the two things at that time. Who knows that the plan is not as good as the change, since the establishment of the Akiyama Fishery, it is easy to get back a large amount of money by going to sea for a month every year, and Bei Hai has lost a little bit of interest in lobsters and crabs that he used to sharpen his head and want to exchange for money.
"What should I do?" Bei Hai asked in a fake way.
"It's very good now, the demand for Marbury blue dragon and giant crab in the market is getting bigger and bigger, and the fishermen are going to catch it on a large scale this year, and I believe that soon these two things will not be a threat to the protists near the Arctic Circle" Frank listened to Bei Hai's question, and his mood seemed to be much better and he said directly: "If I can, I will build a marine management bureau to expand the current fishing season, at least to a full season of fishing time."
Hearing this, Bei Hai said with a smile: "If you say this on the shore, everyone will probably be able to elect you as the new mayor of Gloucester!" ”。
There are not a few fishermen who have switched to lobster fishing now. If this is the case as Frank said, the number of fishermen involved in shrimp and crab fishing will multiply in a matter of time, and it may not even take two years for shrimp and crab fishing to become the largest income for Gloucester Fishing Port.
However, this news is good for the fishermen of Gloucester, and it is not good news for Bei Hai. The extension of the fishing season means that the harvest increases, and the price will naturally fall when the supply is large, and Bei Hai hopes that the market will expand. But the supply has to be reduced so that there will be high prices. It's like the bluefin tuna market now.
Having said that, no matter how powerful Bei Hai is, there is no way to gather all the shrimp and crabs that have been ignored for more than two years. And a smart person can never be a Bei Hai one. It's not just someone else, it's Jed, who has just entered the shrimp and crab fishing industry, there will be so many experience summaries, so where can the veteran who has been engaged in the shrimp and crab fishing industry be worse?
I hope what the old man said will not be fulfilled, and even if it is to be fulfilled, it will be two years later, let buddy, I make a little more money on this, after all, this thing is put by ourselves, isn't it?! Bei Hai looked at the old man's happy face and couldn't help but say in his heart.
Frank naturally didn't know what Bei Hai was thinking about right now, and continued: "Now they have the biggest natural enemy market demand!" What kind of tenacious creature is Wulun As soon as they encounter these four words, then their end is already doomed, and the human stomach is the greatest natural enemy on the earth! ”
A few minutes ago, the old man still had a sad face, and when he talked about the shrimp industry, he became happy again, and smiled, and when he said it, the human stomach became a bitter gourd face again, and an old face became so fast, Bei Hai could be regarded as having nothing to say.
