Chapter 11: Catching a Foolish Fish
From beginning to end, Lawrence didn't say anything about Mars' change of course.
So much so that Mars, who has ambitions and wants to open an island and dominate the seas, can only die down.
At this time, both of them became quiet, and then in the cool stone house, they felt sleepy.
Mars had understood what his father meant, which was to continue to the southwest.
In that case, Mars didn't say anything, just hoped that in the process of moving to the southwest, he would get the best chance to grow up.
The midday heat makes people drowsy.
Mars didn't last long, and then slept in the stone house, and Lawrence watched his son fall asleep, and he didn't last much longer, so he fell asleep.
When you sleep in a wooden tub, you will worry about yourself at any time as the sea rises and falls.
But when you sleep on a moving island, you will find that apart from the sound of waves crashing on the reef, you will sleep very soundly.
A comfortable environment can always make people feel very at ease, so both people sleep for a longer time.
In fact, in such an environment, if you can exercise less, it will save a lot of physical energy.
In this way, you can make yourself physically energetic to deal with various problems.
A small reef island in the middle of the sea is slowly moving, it is like a ship, all the way to a fixed place!
And the sea around this small island is empty.
There is no life, nothing else.
When Mars woke up, his father had already woken up, and he had been observing his surroundings all the time.
"Father, shall we go catch fish?"
There is some food in the wooden basin, but there is not much, these foods are dried meat that has been dried for more than half a year.
The originally large piece will become only the size of a palm because it has been exposed to high temperatures.
Although it looks dark and smells fishy, it is very useful.
Because it's hard and dry, you need to nibble on it all the time, and then slowly find that the more you eat it, the fuller you get.
However, this thing can be stored for a long time, most of it is for emergency use, and now there is more time and energy to get food.
This jerky is temporarily placed in a wooden basin and waiting to be eaten at the critical time.
"It's afternoon, it's not that hot, I'm looking around and I'm able to find the fish soon. ”
Lawrence is a very experienced sea citizen.
For the time being, let's call them people who are trying to survive, because they are very familiar with the sea.
In this way, it is easier for him to get food in this sea.
Mars had seen his father fishing, without tools or bait, and had nothing to do with his own abilities, and then dived to get it.
In this world, because of the difficulty of human existence, although tools are all known to be convenient, but because there is no condition to get them, they don't see a lot at all.
"Father, shall I use these reefs to get some harpoons for fishing?"
Mars doesn't know if people in this world can understand this tool.
So he tried to make a gesture with his hand and tell his father what the tool was for.
"Mars, I know you're very much into using your brain right now, and that's a good sign, because you can only change if you get smarter. ”
"Let's not talk about the tools, my kid, let's stop the island first! there's going to be a lot of delicious food in this area, and we can just go down and catch it." ”
"Yes, Father!"
Lawrence's advice to his son was put on hold for the time being.
The reason for this is that he has become accustomed to grasping with his own hands.
Sometimes knives and the like are used, but that's when the prey is in hand, and it's better not to have blood in the sea.
So at this time, Lawrence asked his son to stop the island.
Mars did not think of his father's request to put him in control of the island, not to change course and go somewhere else, but to stop fishing.
Mars happily controlled the island to stop, so that when the two of them dived, they would not have to worry that the island was always moving and had to keep up, otherwise they might be left in the sea.
When the island stopped, Lawrence took another look at the island.
He dived to the maximum depth, and he was pretty sure it was a real island.
So his worries were only temporary, and he was soon relieved to do his own thing.
The island is not very big now, so the contents of the tub have not been carried at all.
Mars was very curious about his father's enucopia, but now was not the time for him to study it.
After stopping at the island, Lawrence decided to take his son with him to go fishing.
It's a father who teaches his son some hunting experience.
Say yes on the water, and the two of them dive into the water.
There is no way to open your mouth to speak in the water, and the two people can only communicate by gestures.
As seen yesterday.
When Mars dived underwater, he saw that the underwater part of the moving island was actually the same as the surface part, and because it was a reef, the deeper it was, the bigger it was.
Sometimes it really makes people feel amazing, such a large piece of sea reef is actually controlled by a human being.
If you want it to move, it will move, and if you want it to stop, it will stop.
Mars looked at the underwater part of this bottomless moving island, and could only sigh once again at how powerful his gift package was.
The food to be hunted today is a fish that is more common in the sea.
Just now, Lawrence spotted the fish, so he and Mars dived into the water to catch it.
They taste so delicious that people like to catch them because they are easier for humans to catch.
Because they are not the kind of fish that are very large and like to swim in one or two.
But they are bold enough to prey on humans who are several times their size.
That's why when humans touch them, they basically become human food.
It's a little brain-shaven, but it's a very delicious and easily accessible food.
Mars and Lawrence were diving together, and when the silly fish saw Mars and Lawrence, he rushed over without fear.
Then Mars was signaled by Lawrence, and then directly took a picture with the big fish empty-handed.
The big fish has a bit of a small mouth, and its attack is dodged by Mars.
Then Mars held the big fish in both hands in the water.
Immediately afterwards, I would have felt that this big fish should be struggling frantically, but I didn't expect the other party to give up struggling directly.
It's as if it's specially for humans.
The picture is too fake, but that's how it can be used as food to ensure human survival.
Thanks to them, they don't even have a name, maybe only when they are eaten to extinction will someone think of giving them a name!
