Chapter 233: Pitch Black and White Dream (I)

After noon, as the main sling rope of the "Old Man of the Sea" continued to be retracted, the "guests" began to appear on the deck in large numbers, according to the introduction of the captain Dollar Pingji, the tuna caught in this fishery is basically bigeye tuna, commonly known as "bigeye tuna", although the quality is not the best compared to bluefin tuna, but because of the cost performance, it is the most commonly used ingredient in the Japanese raw fish industry. The eight sailors of the rope group hummed a song and threw one after another live tuna onto the deck.

Gu Tie finally saw how the frozen chief worked this time, whenever a tuna was removed from the hook and pushed to the center of the deck to be processed, the frozen chief Saijo pulled out a slender and shiny steel knife to the north, and slammed the center of the tuna's head with the handle of the knife, temporarily stopping its body functions; then brushed the dancing knife, first cut off the tail with a knife, this knife cut off the spine from the penultimate section of the dorsal fin to the sixth section, cut off the useless part of the tail; then cut off the main blood vessel of the pectoral fin, cut the heart artery, and release the blood in the tuna's body; after the blood was cleaned, a pin was driven into the depression of the tuna's skull, completely destroying the brain function of the fish; and then using a knife to cut the fish from the abdomen, remove the internal organs, rinse the belly with seawater, and finally rinse the body with plenty of seawater. During this series of work, the tuna should be constantly rinsed with seawater to prevent the temperature of the fish from rising and causing changes in the taste of the meat.

A series of dazzling movements, which took less than eight minutes, Saijo Freezer stepped on the deck with his foot, the freezer door opened, he gently pushed the processed tuna into the conveyor belt, clapped his hands, and sat down to wait for the next guest to arrive. The tuna will be frozen in five minutes and kept in a freezer room at minus 24 degrees Celsius for cargo ships to come and transfer it, while if a high-quality bluefin tuna is caught, the fishing boat will keep it in a chilled cooling chamber at minus 2 degrees Celsius, using new technology to keep the cell fluid in a state that does not freeze, so that although the shelf life will be shortened from three months to 15 days, the freshness of the fish can be preserved to the maximum and the selling price will be much higher.

"Is it really okay for you to hang out here, Chef Sakurai?" said one of the sailors, smiling quietly.

"Lunch is ready, don't worry!" Gu Tie shouted back. The rare time he spent alone with Aqiwei just now was disturbed, and he had no intention of cooking in a fit of anger, and cut a lot of tomatoes, leeks, green onions, coriander leaves, etc., and ran out to see the scenery, thinking that when the time came, he would make a big pot of pimple soup to fool these Japanese, and the Hebei Cangzhou tomato and egg gnocchi soup passed down by the housekeeper Lao Zhao was hot and drank a bowl, which was also a good meal!

The wind at sea is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems that the storm is coming, and the Chinese lean on the hatch and secretly put a pile under their feet, otherwise they will not be able to stand at all. He saw that each sailor's feet were poked on the deck as if they had roots, the thick main rope was slowly pulled out of the water by the winch, and two sailors were responsible for removing the hanging line and hook from the main rope, and arranged them in order, the quality of the completion of this process determined the smoothness of the rope release the next day, once the hanging line was entangled, it was a major accident for the fishing boat.

Suddenly, a stabbing head slapped into the bow of the boat, and the fishing boat tilted violently, "Oops!" A sailor in a yellow raincoat on the deck fell and almost rolled over the deck and fell off the side of the ship if it had not been for someone next to him to reach out and pull him. "This is the most basic! Pay attention to your own safety, don't let others worry about you! No one is available to take care of you at this time, do you hear?" Saijo Frozen shouted angrily.

It was the new sailor Makoto Kodoka who was wrestling for the first time, and he bowed in shock, "I'm sorry, Freezer! I'll pay attention to it!"

As he was talking, the two sailors in charge of fishing suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no, be careful of the hook!" As the ship tilted, a tuna that had been pulled into the air broke free from the hook and jumped back to the surface, and the hook's hanging line bounced back with a "boom" and whistled onto the deck. The wind was howling, the sky was dark, and the nearly transparent fishing line could barely be seen with the naked eye, and Saijo Freezero saw a faint flash of silver light in the metal, and shouted, "Get out of the way!" He pushed Makoto Kodoka hard, and the trainee sailor fell to the side. The sharp reflection in Saijo's northward vision was rapidly approaching, and he had no time to dodge or resist, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"I'm coming!" Gu Tie's voice sounded, he appeared in front of the frozen chief at some point, holding the kitchen knife in his hand and raising it upward, the fishing line hissed across the blade, rubbing a string of sparks. This extremely strong polymer hanging wire cannot be cut even by a steel knife, and if it cuts through someone's neck, it will definitely cut off the human head like a guillotine. "I'm leaning, powerful!" The Chinese felt their hands numb, and when they looked closely, a gap the size of a grain of rice appeared on the stainless steel blade. He took a breath and looked up and muttered, "It's definitely not over yet, I'll see...... It's now!"

Gu Tie pressed the back of Saijo's head to the north and pressed down hard, and the two of them lay on the deck at the same time, "Whoosh!" The slender sound of the wind swept overhead, making people feel chills in their hearts. The fishing line changed direction and flew towards the mast, circling the mast two hundred and seventy degrees, and the hook with a slight line hit the deck at a higher speed, if it weren't for Gu Tie's heart silently calculating its orbit, I was afraid that the hook had pierced the back of the head at this time.

"Bang!" the hook bounced off the steel hatch, leaving a dented scar on the door.

A bolt of lightning illuminates the pale faces of Saijo Tokai and Makoto Kodoka. "Thank you, Sakurai ......" Saijo Frozen Chang pulled Gu Tie to stand up, and didn't say much, people who beg for a living at sea often encounter dangerous situations, and the kindness is only remembered in their hearts, and there is no need to say more. Gu Tie smiled and nodded, spit out the salty sea water in his mouth, and didn't say anything.

Even if an accident occurs, the fishing operation has not stopped, and it is impossible to stop, and as long as the winch is still working, the reeling team must stick to their posts until the entire main rope is collected onto the fishing boat. The bean-sized raindrops began to crackle and fall, and only seven or eight people in yellow raincoats could be seen working silently on the deck, Gu Tie shook his head and walked back to the cabin. Although the sailors are well paid, who knows the difficulties of these people begging for a living at sea? Gu Tie once specially observed their palms, and each of them had thick calluses on their hands, and an old sailor said that without this callus, he would have sharpened his palms to the point of seeing bones after a day's work of putting ropes. The old sailor's calluses were so thick that he couldn't make a fist or use a touchscreen phone, and every few days he would trim the calluses on his palms with scissors, even if he cut off a centimeter of thickness, he still didn't feel it.

Life is so strange, obviously I will never have the opportunity to meet this group of people in my life, but at this time I came to the fishing boat, met a group of brave men who fought against the sea, and saw the storm and the sea Lang that I would never see in my life. Gu Tie looked down at his strong and powerful hands, there were a few calluses on the palms, fists and index fingers, which were the traces left by holding the gun and practicing boxing, but compared to those sailors, his hands looked so delicate and white. "Does fate choose man, or does man choose fate?" he clenched his fists and sighed, "If the world will be destroyed in a few months, will all the current struggle be in vain......?"

He didn't stay lost for long. The deck suddenly became noisy, "Be careful, be careful!" shouted many people, apparently an accident had happened. Gu Tie immediately rushed to the deck. He was well aware that these sailors were nothing more than passers-by in his life, that he had no duty or obligation to save them, and that according to his previous character, he would never make such a stupid choice. Xiao Liping once said that no matter how socialized human beings are, they are essentially composed of countless "mes", and people must do whatever it takes to harm others for the sake of "me", because this is the initial and ultimate driving force for human beings to move forward. Without the self-centered homo economicus hypothesis, the market economy would not have been realized, and "selfishness" is the way of survival in line with natural selection, which is written in the blood of each of us and in every gene that has been passed down for millions of years. Back then, Gu Tieshen thought that this passage was correct, but now, his body made a decision before rational thinking, - Jonah, is it you?

The Chinese hesitated for a moment, but still rushed to the deck.

Big fish leap wildly on the deck. The light was so dim that the head fisher thought it was a large tuna, but he made a mistake, it was a swordfish, a giant swordfish that was 3.5 meters long and weighed 400 kilograms. Sailfish is a popular ingredient because of its delicious meat, but its ferocity makes fishermen smell like a bayonet-like hard upper jaw, and at a top speed of more than 160 kilometers, adult sailfish can pierce small boats like torpedoes. In the general towing method of fishing sailfish at sea, the hooked sailfish is dragged next to the boat with a thick hanging line, and the fishing rod is constantly swinged, and it takes more than three hours to exhaust the swordfish's physical strength. Now the giant sailfish that had just left the water did not use any physical strength, and the dorsal fin flicked on the ground and shot out, "Ahhh

"Get out of the way!" Gu Tie suddenly accelerated on the slippery deck, holding the kitchen knife in both hands and jumping high, "Poof!" The knife stabbed into the back of the swordfish, the big fish twitched and writhed, Gu Tie gritted his teeth and grabbed the fins, and turned the handle of the knife with both hands. The giant sailfish suddenly swung its tail frantically, "Ping!" In the crisp sound, the kitchen knife was broken in two, and Gu Tie felt a huge force slapping on his body, and flew up like a cloud.

"Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Anyway, this ending is too child's play, isn't it...... Killed by a sailfish?" Gu Tie, who was flying in the air, looked at the dark sky and complained silently.

The storm is coming. The dark sea silently swallowed a man.
