Chapter Eighty-Six: Trying to Hunt and Fish

The yacht sailed to the vicinity of a small reef island, and from the side of the boat, you could see the clear coral reef at the bottom of the water not far away.

The depth of the water under the boat is about 20 meters, whether it is the coral reef in the distance or the bottom of the boat, it is very suitable for fishing and hunting.

Chu Mingcheng didn't take off his diving equipment during the previous freediving training, so he put the safety rope back on his body, and then launched with Lu Zheqiang from the staircase on the back deck.

When he came to the water, Chu Mingcheng swam to the side of the boat, took the speargun from Tong Shuman on the boat, and then swam to the coral reef in the distance first.

Lu Zheqiang followed, holding an underwater camera in his hand.

He filmed Chu Mingcheng's training today, and these materials are edited, but they are very good promotional videos.

Coming to the edge of the reef, the water depth here is about seven or eight meters.

Chu Mingcheng was flat on the water, his eyes were down, and the breathing tube exhalation port was above his head so that he could breathe at any time.

This is the best way to hunt for prey in the reef area.

Soon, Chu Mingcheng found several precious fish swimming in the waters about two meters above the coral, the spotted sea bream, also known as the black golden drum.

He made a gesture of resignation, and then plunged headlong.

Lu Zheqiang, who was filmed in the back, also made the same action and swam down with him.

After Chu Mingcheng came to a distance of about six or seven meters away from the spotted sea bream, he slowed down.

The first time he used a speargun, he knew that his accuracy was definitely not good, so he wanted to rely on it.

He slowed down, first put the speargun on his stomach, pulled up the two rubber bands, and then raised the speargun in front of him with his right hand and slowly approached.

Spearguns actually weigh a bit and feel a bit heavy when picked up on land, but with the help of buoyancy in the water, they become very light and can be picked up steadily.

As he approached, the distance was more than three meters.

The grouper began to get restless, flicking its tail and moving away from him, keeping its distance from him.

The speed of swimming is noticeably faster, and it is not as leisurely as before.

Chu Mingcheng stopped and didn't dare to get any closer, and after the fish stopped, he first looked at the diving watch, more than thirty seconds had passed since he dived, so he had to hurry up.

There was someone behind him, and he couldn't wait patiently at the bottom of the water, waiting for the fish to let down his vigilance before attacking.

Raising the speargun to aim, Chu Mingcheng chose the largest of them, and after aiming at his side, he decisively pressed the trigger.

"Bang~"

The rubber band collapsed in an instant, and the arrow swooped out, and Chu Mingcheng's own eyes didn't catch it, and he could only see the trajectory left behind after the arrow rushed out.

The spotted sea bream in front of it suddenly spread out, hit the air, and hit the target fish at nine o'clock, and it was estimated that it was only about 20 centimeters away from being hit.

It was normal to miss the first time, Chu Mingcheng swam back to the surface first, and then took the arrow back.

Lu Zheqiang swam to his side, took off the breathing tube and said, "Ah Cheng, it doesn't matter if the first target misses. What you just aimed at is actually quite accurate, that is, there is a difference between shooting in the sea water and swimming pool, that is, the sea water is moving, and the fish can also swim. ”

"First of all, you have to pay attention to the direction of the sea flow, and secondly, you have to predict the next movement of the fish, so that your hit rate will increase very quickly."

"Practice slowly, don't rush."

"Good~"

Lu Zheqiang is right, he just didn't take into account the thrust of the current, and he didn't calculate the swimming speed of the fish accurately.

However, this kind of practice requires more fighting, and it will naturally become familiar.

Diving again to find suitable prey, this time he saw a bright green fish, this should be a parrotfish, not bad.

He took a breath and dived into the water again, swimming in the direction of the parrotfish.

Pull the rubber band up and start approaching.

He noticed that the fish was not swimming in place, but had been swimming slowly in the direction of one o'clock, so he quickened up and stopped in front of it.

Roll over and stop, holding a speargun, and wait for it to approach.

Five, four, three...

Watching the fish swim closer and closer, until it curiously stopped in front of the spear gun arrow, Chu Mingcheng was silent.

I've never seen such a stupid fish in my life, and now I've finally seen it.

He pulled the trigger, and with a bang, the arrow pierced the fish.

Only then did the parrotfish know that it regretted it, and wagged its tail desperately.

But there is a barbed blade on the arrow, which is specially designed to prevent the prey from escaping.

Chu Mingcheng was about to take out a diving knife to bleed this parrot fish, but the aquatic atlas in his mind suddenly changed.

But he was only stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses and bled the fish first, and seeing that the time to enter the water was almost two minutes, he could only drag the rope to swim to the surface of the water first.

No way, he can't stay in the water for too long with someone around.

"Good luck!" Lu Zheqiang looked at the fish and praised it with a smile.

Chu Mingcheng smiled awkwardly, stupid fish are rare, but fishermen and hunters still encounter them occasionally.

Attaching the fish to the live fish buckle, he continued to look for prey, and as for the new changes in the aquatic illustrated, he could look at it when he had time.

Considering that it was almost noon, Chu Mingcheng handed the spear gun to Lu Zheqiang, then took out the fish spear on his back and swam to deeper waters.

He had to get another fish to make enough for a few people for lunch.

In the water area of about 20 meters, it is impossible to see the bottom of the water if people continue to level the surface of the water.

This will require him to swim to the middle level to find suitable prey, but the trouble in the middle layer is to go up from time to time to ventilate.

After going up and pretending to change his breath four times, he finally found his favorite prey, a striated stone bream hiding in a crevice in the coral.

After getting closer, Chu Mingcheng realized that this stone sea bream was a bit big, at least five or six catties.

The stone bream hid in a coral crevice thinking he would be safe, but he didn't know that he was using a spear even more.

Chu Mingcheng slowly came to the top of it, and pointed the fish spear at the position of its gills, whoosh~

The body of the fish is pierced, and the stone bream struggles frantically.

But it was useless, Chu Mingcheng stepped forward and held it, then let go of the fish spear and took out the diving knife to bleed it.

Fish blood fluttered in the water, and soon it lost the strength to struggle.

Chu Mingcheng directly carried the fish to the surface of the water, took off the snorkel and said to Lu Zheqiang, who also surfaced: "Let's do this in the morning, and after lunch, I will go to the pool to continue practicing." ”

Lu Zheqiang doesn't have any opinions, Chu Mingcheng goes to the pool to practice, then he can train the two female students who just joined the team.

Back on the boat, Chu Mingcheng put the stone bream in the ice water, and then poured a little white wine to sterilize.

He ate the oysters that Jiang Luoluo caught alive before, and it was also funny at the time, and it was okay once in a while.

However, if you eat sashimi often, it is best to kill the fungus or make it mature.

Originally, it was best to use white wine, but there was only foreign wine on the ship, and Chu Mingcheng could only use white wine.

He removed the parrotfish and cut it into pieces for dry frying, which also tasted good.

The main thing is that the fish is so fresh that it will not smell fishy at all, so it will taste particularly good.

After eating at noon, Lu Zheqiang drove the boat back.

Originally, it was planned to come out for a day, but I didn't expect Chu Mingcheng's progress to be so fast.
