Chapter 4 The king goes to sea and throws himself into the net

King crab is strong, good at hiding, and crawls very fast underwater.

For local fishermen, king crabs are harder to catch than cat's eye mussels.

But for Fu Ning, it's the opposite.

He had lived by the sea in a previous life, and a local fisherman had taught him a way to catch crabs.

First, I found some branches from the neighborhood, and cut them all into 20 centimeters and about 20 centimeters.

At one end of the branch, skewer in the offal or mussel meat.

Then, taking advantage of the high tide, choose a shallow beach that can reach up to your ankles, and insert the treated branches into the water at regular intervals.

Crabs are omnivores and especially like to eat offal, and when they smell it, they will definitely burrow into the sand.

As soon as the tide recedes the next day, all the branches that had been inserted into the tree will be exposed to the water, and you only need to follow the map to find crabs underneath.

Thinking of this, Fu Ning didn't care about the cold, put on his clothes and rushed out of the cabin directly.

After a while, he ran back with a lump of fish entrails.

Fortunately, the tide has not fully risen, and the internal organs of the fish just processed are still there.

"Big fish, what are you doing with all this dirty stuff?"

"You'll find out tomorrow."

Fu Ning sold a pass, and then taught Yun Niang to set a trap.

By the time they were done, it was getting late.

Yun Niang doesn't seem to want to go home.

It wasn't until the night was dark that he reluctantly left.

The wind at night at sea is very strong.

The boat shook badly.

It wasn't until the second half of the night that Fu Ning fell asleep in a daze.

In the dream, he didn't seem to have crossed over, and continued to live an ordinary life, working, getting married, having children, and growing old, as if he had fallen into a besieged city.

He tried hard to get out, but suddenly found that the besieged city had become a prison cell at some point, and he had become a spiritual slave in the cell.

He went through the ordeal of his predecessor again, until he was woken up by a voice.

"Big fish, the tide is receding."

Fu Ning sat up in shock.

Even the whole boat was stirred.

He shook his head, shaken off the nightmare of the previous night.

Outside the boat, is Yun Niang's shadow.

Yesterday, he specifically told Yun Niang that he must come to remind himself when the tide is low.

Looking out through the gap in the ship, the white waves on the sea are connected into a line, like a well-trained soldier, thousands of troops and horses returning to the court.

And after the waves, the beach has expanded by more than three feet.

"Great!"

He couldn't wait to get out of the Upong, and as soon as he came up, he was beaten back to his original shape by the sea breeze.

Ah sneeze~

The wind earlier had not yet been warmed by the sun, so it was still mixed with a chill.

He shuddered and wrapped his clothes tightly, and there was a feeling of weakness under his feet.

This body is really a little worse than yesterday, if there is no vitality to replenish, it can last for more than ten days at most.

"You have to hurry up and get into Zali!"

Fu Ning thought secretly in his heart, and there was a little more urgency in his eyes.

The sand on the shore was hard, and after the sea soaked all night, every grain was bitterly cool.

Fu Ning was barefoot, as if he was stepping on the ice, and with every step he took, his face turned pale.

But instead of holding back, he was getting faster and faster on his feet.

Because of the wind and waves last night, he was a little worried about whether those traps would be broken.

Soon I came to the beach where the trap was laid yesterday, only to see that the tide had receded, and the beach had been exposed.

The branches of the trees they had planted at the bottom of the water yesterday are now neatly standing on the beach.

It's like the marks made on the ground when sappers are clearing mines, and they are clear at a glance.

Seeing this, Fu Ning's worries finally eased a little.

If the branches are there, the trap should be fine!

"Big fish, are we going to catch the sea?"

Yun Niang carried a fish basket.

The fish basket is very wide, and at first glance it looks like it is carrying Yun Niang.

The sea breeze whistled and poured down her neckline, and it became bulging when she landed.

Today's Yun Niang has a few more red marks on her body.

Fu Ning, who had a prison life, could see at a glance that this was a trace of a whip.

"Yun Niang, what's the matter with the injuries on your body?"

Fu Ning's tone was low, remembering that Yun Niang didn't want to go home yesterday, and there was a little guess in his heart.

Yun Niang touched the red mark on her neck, and her mouth opened, revealing a row of shell teeth: "It's not in the way, just bubble the sea." ”

Looking at her light and breezy appearance, Fu Ning's heart tightened suddenly.

The scars of the whip, soaked in the seawater, the pain that few people should be able to bear.

Yun Niang interrupted Fu Ning's contemplation at the right time: "Big fish, what is the use of these branches?" ”

Fu Ning coughed lightly twice and did not answer, because he had no bottom in his heart.

After all, this trap is from the blue star, and no one knows if this crab from another world is good or not.

Looking at the nearest branch, he crouched down and began to dig.

Whether you can enter Zalitan depends on today's harvest!

Fu Ning first brushed away the sand on the surface, and then used his fingers to test it down little by little.

If the trap worked, the crab should be hiding in the sand under the branches.

The crab is naturally alert and will immediately run away if there is any disturbance, so he digs carefully.

I am afraid of scaring the crab away, and I am also afraid of being caught by the crab.

When he dug down about three inches like this, Fu Ning's movements suddenly paused, and his fingertips poked into a hard object.

"There's a play!"

After settling his mind and judging the general position, he jerked the branch of the tree, and the mud and sand under it suddenly turned up.

In the messy mud and sand, a palm-sized crab panicked.

Yun Niang, who was still puzzled, reacted immediately: "Ah! Where to run! ”

The speed of the king crab is very fast, but Yun Niang's speed is even faster, and before it can spread its eight long legs, it was picked up from behind by Yun Niang.

"Giggles, still want to run?! Where to run? ”

The crab has green hair and yellow hands, the armor on his body is iron-colored, his face is fierce, and the two big pincers are 'clicking' against the air, like a king who is very angry and has serious consequences, it is a king crab.

Seeing this, Fu Ning was overjoyed: Fortunately, Yun Niang was here, otherwise this king crab would have slipped away.

"It's ...... Those fish offal yesterday? ”

The crab had half of the fish intestines in its mouth, and Yun Niang suddenly understood: it turned out that this was a trap to catch the king crab!

Her favorite food is king crab, and with the first good start, her motivation immediately soars.

Yun Niang is very smart, just watching Fu Ning dig it up, she can already do the same.

Soon all the traps were turned over.

Yesterday they laid a total of fifteen traps.

Except for three of them, the rest of the twelve have been harvested, and some even have several crabs under a trap.

In the end, when they were put together, they caught a total of eighteen.

Among them, there are five king crabs, and the remaining thirteen are large and small, all of which are pike crabs.

The fish baskets that Yun Niang found were almost full.

"I have king crab to eat today!"

The sea breeze ruffled Yun Niang's hair, and tears flowed from the corners of her mouth.

"King crab?"

Fu Ning hurriedly stopped her thoughts: "Yun Niang, these pike crabs can be eaten casually, but I have a good use for these king crabs." ”

"Huh? What is king crab used for? ”

Yun Niang was a little disappointed, the pike crab is not as fragrant as the king crab.
