"Isn't it just a coffin board, there's nothing to be afraid of." Chu Mingcheng calmly retracted the fishhook and grabbed the coffin board that was about to sink.

It was so close to the mandarin fish fishing area, he had swam in the waters roughly once when he dived before, and he didn't find anything special.

In addition, if there was a coffin, the coffin board should have been nailed up, how could he be pulled up so easily.

After just lifting the plank slightly, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

The board is not thick and rounded like the sliding cover, but like a door panel, with a lot of silt on it.

It's just that when he lifted all the planks, his heart couldn't help jumping, couldn't it really be a coffin board, right?

The door panel is not that narrow, both in length and width, it does look like that boxy coffin panel.

Looking at the wooden board he lifted in his hand, Chen Yang hesitated and said, "Ah Cheng, why don't we call the police?" ”

Chu Mingcheng shook his head: "Don't call the police yet, let's take this plank to the shore first, and then I'll change into a diving suit and go to the water to have a look." ”

"Hey~ You still go underwater in person, aren't you afraid of that?" Zhang Wei couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard that he was going to dive himself.

If there is really a coffin under the water, will you panic when you see it?

"No, I wander around the ocean late at night, and the environment is much scary than seeing a coffin." Chu Mingcheng waved his hand and smiled.

He runs to the bottom of the sea at a depth of dozens of meters at night to fish and hunt, and he is not afraid of that deep environment, what corpses are he afraid of?

Then, he drove back to the shore, threw the wooden board that appeared to be a coffin board aside, and then let Chen Yang and the others move freely.

Chu Mingcheng himself drove to the dock, boarded his boat and changed into a diving suit.

After returning with Wei Jiaguo, he cleaned the diving suit and quickly took it back to his ship.

Later, he came to the lake again, and Chen Yang and Zhang Wei stood on the shore smoking and chatting.

Seeing that Chu Mingcheng had returned, they asked again with some concern.

"Ah Cheng, are you really in the water?"

"Don't be afraid if you see anything, I'll sleep with you at night."

"Roll~"

Chu Mingcheng said to accompany. Zhang Wei, who was sleeping, raised his middle finger, was he really afraid that he wouldn't look for Jiang Luoluo, and he needed him to spoil his own good deeds?

However, Zhang Wei's joking words reminded him.

But for now, let's get into the water and see, and talk about other things later.

Chu Mingcheng drove back to the water just now, asked Chen Yang to answer them on the boat, and jumped directly into the water with his equipment on.

Once in the water, he dived headfirst into the water.

The depth of the water here is only six or seven meters, and it is easy for freedivers to handle.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Mingcheng looked around two meters from the bottom, and he didn't find a big fish, nor did he see a coffin.

But they couldn't find the exact location of the plank before, but they remembered the approximate location, so he needed to look for it slowly underwater.

Chu Mingcheng remembered that the plank was caught on the northwest side, so he found the right direction and swam there.

After a while, he noticed the traces of being dragged underwater.

It was confirmed that it was the original location of the plank, but there was nothing here, and it was clear that the plank had been carried here by the current and then sunk to the bottom.

As he expected, if there was a coffin, the door should be nailed.

In that case, either the whole coffin will be pulled up, or the thread will be broken, but obviously the former is basically impossible.

Shaking his head slightly, Chu Mingcheng was about to go back, but suddenly found that there seemed to be some movement in the aquatic plants not far away.

He saw a huge mandarin fish bigger than a basin suddenly burst out of the aquatic weeds and swallowed a small river shrimp close to the aquatic weeds.

'~'

Chu Mingcheng, who had studied in college but was still uneducated, immediately let out an exclamation in his heart!

Such a big mandarin fish is estimated to grow for more than ten years, right?

He didn't act rashly, but returned to the side of the lure boat first.

As soon as Chen Yang saw him coming up, he hurriedly asked, "How is it, what have you found?" ”

Chu Mingcheng shook his head: "There is no coffin or anything, that wooden board should have been brought here by the current, and it happened to be caught by me." But I found a big surprise. ”

"Ah Wei, help me find the thickest line, tie a big hook, and hang a soft bait, I'll bring you a big guy later."

"Yo, what big guy surprised you so much?" Zhang Wei was slightly surprised, but his hand was not slow, and he quickly did what he said.

Chu Mingcheng took the fishing line and, as before, tied the fishing line directly to his hand.

Whether he is fishing or diving, he wears gloves on his hands, so he is not afraid of cutting himself with a fishing line.

Returning to the aquatic weed where he saw the mandarin fish before, Chu Mingcheng floated on the surface of the water and landed the hook bait on the spot where the mandarin fish swallowed the river shrimp just now.

He pulls the line with his left hand and gently pulls it, allowing the bait to mimic the appearance of small fish in the water.

Sure enough, he saw a large black shadow on the surface of the water slowly approaching the soft bait.

The next moment, the mandarin fish suddenly appeared, swallowed the soft bait in one bite, and ate it very fiercely.

Chu Mingcheng's right hand immediately dragged hard, and the hook immediately pierced deeply into the fish's mouth.

Then he tried to pull the fish back, but found that the fish was so strong that he couldn't pull it back for a while.

Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng pulled the line with his left hand and turned his right hand.

The line was retracted in circles, and he himself slowly swam to the bottom.

He can't pull it back, and the fish doesn't want to escape, this mandarin fish is big, but its appearance is only twenty or thirty catties at most.

This size is very rare among wild mandarin fish, and when you catch it, you usually carry a fish on your back, and you just can't find a home on the big road, and then make a small news.

But it's not comparable to the big fish that can pull people around.

As Chu Mingcheng tightened the line shorter and shorter, he also slowly approached the mandarin fish.

The body is slender, but the stomach is a little bulging.

The fish in winter have to overwinter and eat very fat.

Chu Mingcheng came to the front, pulling the fishing line with his right hand and grabbing its tail with his left hand.

The shorter the line, the better he could control the fish, and despite the fish's struggles, he managed to catch the tail after a few attempts.

The front and back are controlled, and the mandarin fish loses most of the ability to resist.

But the mandarin fish was not reconciled, its physical strength was not completely consumed, and as soon as its body twisted its tail and flicked it, it immediately broke free from Chu Mingcheng's hand.

He was also afraid that the fish would suddenly erupt and forcibly pull off the hook despite his injuries, so he did not use brute force to fight it, but swam with the fish and continued to walk the fish to consume its strength.

Following along the way, the mandarin fish noticed several large rocks not far ahead, so he swam over and hid beside the stones.

Chu Mingcheng didn't want it to rest, and just wanted to pull the fishing line to let it continue to run with him, but suddenly found that under a few big stones, there was a touch of red.

If you look closely, it's a bit of a blurry black and red, and it's white.

It was difficult to see the red color in the lake, but the stone was a different color.

Chu Mingcheng was well-informed, and he didn't recognize the origin of this stone, but he doubted in his heart that these stones would have any reputation.

It's just that he's still fishing, so he focuses on the fish first.

It had been two minutes in the water, and now Chen Yang and Zhang Wei also knew how to fish and hunt, so he did not stay under the water any longer, but first floated to the surface of the water to pretend to breathe, and then continued to walk the fish to consume his physical strength.

After more than ten minutes, the fish's physical strength was almost exhausted, and Chu Mingcheng went to catch the fish again, and then swam back with the fish.

A mandarin fish that couldn't put a basin down, and the two people on the boat naturally let out a burst of exclamation.

Zhang Wei tried to weigh the fish with a fish controller, and found that the fish weighed 27 catties and 7 taels, and the fish controller could weigh 30 catties, which was just enough to display.

"It's amazing, I've never seen such a big mandarin fish. Ah Cheng hurriedly continued to search, there must be more than one lake of this size. ”

"That's definitely more than that, but it's a question of whether I can find it, anyway, it's still early, I'll look for it again!"

Chu Mingcheng looked at the time, it was only half past nine in the morning, and he could play for another hour.

Anyway, they were all in the water, so he continued to look for the big fish.

But Chu Mingcheng was still thinking about the stones just now, so he went back to the place just now and dived down to dig them out.

The big piece of duck egg, the big piece of egg, and the other piece are the size of a football, which is quite heavy, so he didn't take it.

Back on the water, he first looked at the egg-sized rock in his right hand.

I was surprised to find that there was only a little red stone at the bottom of the water, and after appearing on the surface of the water, there were crimson markings on the stone like blood.

The rest of the area is milk-white with nephrite, and the surface is smooth like a pebble, unlike ordinary stones.

The stones the size of a duck's egg on the left hand are all red, but the surface is very rough, and many parts are still muddy and yellow, which is not very beautiful.

So he returned to the boat and handed the stone to the two people on the boat: "What kind of stone do you know?" ”

Zhang Wei curiously picked up the stone and looked at it, but didn't recognize what it was.

Chen Yang saw the color of the stone and the luster of the surface, and immediately said, "it."

"It can't be bloodstone, can it?"

"Bloodstone?"

Chu Mingcheng felt that he seemed to have heard it, but he didn't have much impression.

"How to say it, bloodstone is one of the four major stones in China, and one gram can be sold for a few to hundreds of pieces, mainly depending on the quality."

Chen Yang actually didn't know much about bloodstone, but he was better than the other two people who didn't know at all.

He picked up the red and white bloodstone and said, "This one is not only beautiful in color, but also very translucent, and you can see that the quality is very good at a glance." ”

Then he pointed to another piece and said: "This piece is of poor quality at a glance, and it is difficult to say whether it is even bloodstone or not." ”

"One hundred and one grams?" Chu Mingcheng was speechless, not to mention the bad one, but this red and white bloodstone, he felt that the price would definitely not be low.

But when he thought that there was a big football under the water, he immediately said, "Wait a minute, there's a huge piece under the water." ”

"Oversized?" Chen Yang and Zhang Wei looked at each other, they wouldn't come out to catch a fish, and their brother became a multimillionaire because of picking up stones, right?

After a short while, they saw Chu Mingcheng coming over with a big red stone.

Chen Yang groaned and said, "This piece, maybe it's granite?" ”

"Uh" Chu Mingcheng was speechless for a moment!

But in the end, whether it was or not, they had to be identified to find out, so they took the stones with them when they returned.
