068 The 'Man' Under the Water
"Diving?"
"Leaving this dive so late?"
"Brother Yu, you're not mistaken!"
A few young men sitting in the cabin were still talking and laughing just now, but now they had turned their heads over and looked at the sonar display on the console with a look of surprise.
They are all a new generation of fishermen, so they know exactly what is on the display.
This small red dot that suddenly appeared is not a big fish symbol, but a symbol that only a living "human" has, and according to the machine, this "person" should be moving at a depth of about 40 meters underwater, not a static state.
"There's really someone diving with this!"
"Aren't you afraid of danger at such a late hour?"
"It can't be a sonar problem, right?"
Several people chattered about it.
Diving at night with such low visibility is something that fishermen who have been dealing with the sea all year round don't have the courage to do so.
Moreover, the nearby waters are craggy and reefs, and the undercurrents on the bottom of the sea are turbulent and complicated, and a few of them drove fishing boats overnight to detour through this waters, and they dared to take the risk of rushing home, all because they grew up nearby, so that they could avoid the danger under the water a little bit.
In such a comparison, this underwater "frogman" who was captured by the sonar detection device and launched overnight was either highly skilled and dependent, or he was so bold that he was boundless.
"Brother Yu, do you want to come over and take a look?" A few people discussed it.
The dark-skinned young man at the helm shook his head: "Maybe there is someone engaged in scientific research who is testing something in that area overnight, right?" There is a reef in that area, it is too dangerous to lean over, and besides, others are diving over there, and our ship will affect others when it comes over, which is not suitable. ”
"I'll ask my dad when I get back, it's very close to my house, just behind my house, and my dad should know something."
Seeing that the young man at the helm said so, the rest of the young people also had no opinions, and they were obviously more convinced of this person. In addition, a few people have been at sea for more than half a month, and at this time, they lost interest after looking at the "people" on the sonar display screen, and began to discuss where to go ashore to get some wine and food for supper to celebrate.
The upcoming typhoon is not only a danger for the new generation of fishermen, but also a rare opportunity to go ashore and relax and take a vacation.
……
Just as the fishing boat was quickly passing around the back cliff, Chen Jie, who was practicing underwater, also heard a strange sound of propellers hundreds of meters away with his strong hearing.
"A ship passing by?" Chen Jue held the stone ball and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
Although there were a few rays of bright moonlight on the surface of the water, it was pitch black under the sea, and with Chen Jie's eyesight, a few meters away was already the limit.
In the past few days, Chen Jue has been diving and practicing for several days, and Chen Jue knows that the reef and coast of this back cliff are a place where few people will come, so that his practice is becoming more and more bold, without considering the possibility of being discovered by these passing boats.
Fortunately, the sound of the propeller became farther and farther away, and became weaker and weaker, until it disappeared and could not be heard, and Chen Jue breathed a sigh of relief.
However, being troubled by the movement of this ship, Chen Jue became a little more vigilant, and it seems that he should pay more attention before diving practice, in addition to confirming that there is no one around, and also to see if there are any boats passing by on the sea.
If there is a boat paddling over your head during the day, you can't explain it clearly when you see yourself practicing with the help of the light.
Even at night, a searchlight can barely penetrate the 40-meter-deep clear water.
"It looks like you'll have to watch out for those anglers in the future!"
"If a boat is on top of me, no matter how much I can hold my breath, I will never be able to survive the patience of these fishermen." Chen Jue thought like this, and after practicing for more than 20 minutes, he went ashore with the stone ball in his arms, and then ran all the way back to the villa.
……
By moonlight, the white fishing boat circled the protrusion of the tip of the island, and it took more than twenty minutes for it to stop at a small pier in a nearby fishing village.
A few young people laughed and threw away the anchor, tied the rope to the iron stake on the pier, and then got off the boat together, discussed staying and going home to take a bath, came out for a late night barbecue, drank a little wine to deal with the night, and then walked in the direction of their own homes.
The dark-skinned young man at the helm walked all the way through the pier, borrowed the path of the beach, and then walked slowly back to his own homestay cottages.
Seeing that most of the small villas were lit off, only the first one was his own home, and the last one was still lit, the dark-skinned young man couldn't help grinning: "After the summer vacation is over, there are still tourists staying?" Business isn't bad! ”
Then he pushed the door into the first small villa, and when he saw his parents sitting in the living room watching TV, the young man shouted, "Abba! Grandma! ”
The B&B aunt was very happy, and when she saw her eldest son coming back, she hurriedly went up and hugged her, holding her son's face and touching it left and right, and muttered in her mouth: "My boy!" I'm all skinny outside! Hurry up and take a shower, there are still hot dishes and hot meals in the pot, and the bed is laid for you. ”
As for Uncle Yu, he took out a cigarette and handed it over, asked about the situation of going to sea, and by the way, while his son was sitting and eating dinner after taking a bath, he also told him about the situation at home.
As soon as he heard that the last small villa had been rented out for another month, the dark-skinned young man was still full of joy and boasted that his family's business was good.
But when I heard my father mention that the tourists in the villa actually caught a wild yellow croaker weighing more than 8 catties in the waters of the back cliff, the black-skinned young man couldn't help but widen his eyes, and he almost couldn't even hold the chopsticks for the rice!
"Abba! Really? ”
"8 pounds of gold bars?"
"Didn't he get rich overnight? If you sell the fish, you can live in our house for a year! The dark-skinned young man muttered a little, his mood was complicated, and some of them were not a taste.
Although he earns a good income from deep-sea fishing, he also spends a lot of money.
The ship has to be maintained, the oil supply cost a lot of money to go to sea, and the wages of a group of boatmen and fishermen have to be paid.
This time I went to sea for more than half a month, and the harvest could only be regarded as ordinary, and in the end, the remaining profits were not worth as much as the value of this fish.
"I personally took Ah Jue to Luoya Sun to sell it, can I still have a fake?"
"Tomorrow he will come to the house for dinner, and you will get to know him by then, they are all young people, and communicate more." Uncle Yu took a puff of his cigarette and gave his son a look you know.
"Okay!" The dark-skinned young man nodded, so that the lucky tourists must make friends.
However, remembering what he had just encountered at sea, he asked his old father again if there was anyone engaged in scientific research and diving in the back cliff.
"Diving at night to do scientific research?"
"Nothing! I stare at the door of my house every day, how can anyone go to the back cliff! Uncle Yu shook his head.
Now, the dark-skinned youth is even more depressed!
To go to the back cliff of the path, you have to pass through the front of these homestays of your own family, since the old father said so, then there will definitely be no one to do any diving operations in that area.
It can't be really the sonar detection device on the fishing boat, right?
The black-skinned young man was puzzled, he planned to go to the back cliff tomorrow morning to have a look, and if it didn't work, he would call a few friends to go fishing in the sea to see if he could also try to catch an 8-pound wild big yellow croaker.
