They didn't get too close to the East Reef to get their nets off because of the reef area below.

If the sticky net sinks to the bottom, it will be 100% hanging, even if you can catch a lot of good goods, but there is a high probability that the gains will outweigh the losses.

What they didn't expect was that when they got the net down, it was overcast and it was drizzling.

The rain in winter is not very heavy, but it will rain for a long time.

Based on past experience, Li Duoyu feels that this year's New Year is estimated to be spent in the rainy season.

The net was put down, and it would take a few hours to collect it, and everyone had planned to rest on the sampan.

But now it's drizzling, and although the impact is not very great, if you get wet from the winter rain, you are very prone to fever and cold.

At present, he can only go to Dongjia Reef to avoid the rain, and Li Duoyu drove a sampan boat cautiously towards Dongjia Reef.

Although he was familiar with the sea and had a very clear map of the waterways in his head, he was still very careful.

The moment you get to the island.

All the seabirds around flew up, all of them had a pungent smell of bird feces, and Li Duoyu had already experienced.

When the seabird flies, it's best to cover your head with something, otherwise it will be easy to give you a soak of bird droppings.

I was lucky to change my brother-in-law this time.

Touching the sticky thing on his head, he was so angry that he picked up the small stone and threw it directly at the seabirds.

Li Duoyu led them to a hidden tunnel.

This was dug by the soldiers back then, mainly to hide people and hide weapons.

After all, Dongjia Reef was also an important island and reef back and forth in those days, and the two sides rushed back and forth.

It is said that many people died, and according to the older generation, the young soldiers who used to guard the reef often disappeared for no reason.

In addition, the environment was too harsh, and the supply ships often ran aground, so no more people were stationed on the island.

Those who know this tunnel, except for Li Duoyu and some old fishermen on the island, only the Zhao brothers know.

Li Duoyu waved his hand, and the pit was full of spider silk, and it should have been a long time since he saw this situation.

The Zhao brothers are also relatively superstitious, and the last time Zhao Dahai drowned here, he always felt that this place was not clean.

In addition, Liu Mazi had an accident, there are rumors on the island now, there are drowning ghosts here, and Liu Mazi must wait until the next person drowns before Liu Mazi can be freed.

Anyway, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, the more terrifying it becomes, and the two brothers don't dare to come here at all now.

In addition, the relationship between the two brothers and Liu Mazi is not very good, and they have fought before, so they are really afraid that Liu Mazi will touch them and come to them.

Li Duoyu didn't eat this, he was in awe of the sea, but it wasn't those strange things that he was in awe.

In the tunnel, there are still a lot of things left here by the Zhao family brothers.

A small iron pot, a packet of coarse salt that had clumped, some firewood, a quilt wrapped in a tarpaulin, but already moldy.

brother-in-law says:

"It looks like it's been a long time since I've been here."

Li Duoyu didn't dare to tell him what had happened in Dongjiajiao, otherwise his brother-in-law would probably be scared enough.

And at this very moment.

Two hundred and five suddenly shouted towards the top of the tunnel.

The screams startled Chen Wenchao.

Li Duoyu is not afraid, it doesn't mean that he is not afraid, in fact, he is very afraid of the dark, and he is also afraid of being alone in the same place.

The reason is that when he returned from swimming in the open sea, the sequelae left behind, it is still a bit embarrassing to say it.

He now sleeps at night, and if he sleeps alone, he must have a little light before he dares to sleep in peace.

When the two hundred and five were called, Li Duoyu had already touched the harpoon.

Sure enough, in the direction of the two hundred and five barks, there was a snake entrenched on the stone wall there, which did not look very big.

Because they were huddled together just now, they didn't notice it, and the tunnel was dimly lit, so if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to spot it at all.

Accompanied by the cry of two hundred and five.

The cobra also showed aggressiveness, and the head of the snake was erected on the spot and turned into a flat shape.

However, when the three people in the pit saw the cobra, they did not show fear, but became excited.

Listening to the older generation, Dandan Island used to have a lot of cobras, but . Eaten.

For people by the sea, bird meat is too sassy and really not delicious, but the cobra is too fragrant.

The Lao Yang restaurant at the pier sells the best boar and roe deer meat, and the third is the cobra.

Especially stewed cobra soup, that's called a fragrant.

And this product, because it is more like a rice spoon when it stands up and has a large amount of cobra venom, will shoot out like a water gun to attack the eyes, and the people in Chenjia Village will call it, rice spoon gun.

Speaking of which, here in Dongjia Reef, the first danger must be the reef, and the second danger is all kinds of poisonous snakes.

Li Duoyu didn't know where these poisonous snakes came from, anyway, there were indeed a lot of poisonous snakes on the island.

The cobra is just one of them, and there is that what a triangular tip (the original spearhead pither).

After seeing the cobra stand up, the two hundred and five wanted to rush over, but Li Duoyu kicked it away directly, this thing will spray venom.

If you go up to 25 and get sprayed, your eyes may be blind, and if you get bitten, it will be even less cost-effective.

Li Duoyu took the harpoon, shook it twice, and sure enough, it shot.

Fortunately, there are not many shots.

The amount is small and a bit short.

Li Duoyu didn't bother to spend time with it, so the harpoon directly forked it and nailed it in an instant.

Probably because of the pain, the cobra kept wrapping around the harpoon, forming a ball.

The brother-in-law looked up at the top of the tunnel and saw that the gaps in the stones were quite wide.

"Fish, be careful, this thing usually appears in a nest, I don't know if there are any more."

"Hmm."

Li Duoyu nodded: "Let's make a fire and smoke it and take a look." ”

Maybe it's because no one has been here in the tunnel for too long, but I didn't expect it to become a cobra's nest.

After Li Duoyu made a fire and deliberately created thick smoke, two more cobras were smoked out of the cracks in the stones on his head.

I didn't think about it, the fish hadn't started to catch yet.

Instead, I caught a snake, a cobra on Dandan Island, it can be sold for at least three yuan, and if it is three, it will be nine yuan.

And after they caught the snake, the tide almost receded, and they were always worried that there would be three people with snakes coming out of their heads.

I don't want to stay in the pit anymore, but go to the low tide area, planning to pick up some small seafood, so that I can buy less during the Chinese New Year.

Although Li Duoyu is now a rich man, in such a good place, if you don't go to the sea, you are a little sorry for the genes of the seaside people.

When leaving.

Li Duoyu took the lump of coarse salt and went to catch the sea, maybe this thing could come in handy.

It may be that no one has come for too long, and there are really many sea urchins, dense, and they can't be picked up.

But for the three of them, this thing can be used as a Chinese medicinal material, and the people on the beach really don't eat it.

There are a lot of stone crabs, just turn over a stone, there are several stone crabs, but unfortunately there is no meat, the shell is hard and strong, disgusted, can't look down.

The stones are full of wild mussels, and if you start raising blue crabs again, you can pry them off and give them to eat.

On the reef, there are a lot of general's hats and spicy snails, the spicy snails taste average, and the general's hat is worth eating.

The general's hat is a kind of snail, the scientific name is the snail, especially the hat that looks like a Qing Dynasty soldier's hat, so it is called the general's hat.

This thing is called baby abalone here, and it tastes very good, just clean it, put it upside down, and put some garlic sauce on it.

Whether it is eaten steamed or grilled, it tastes good.

You can also stir-fry directly with green onion and ginger, Li Duoyu remembers the price of this thing later, which seems to be twice as expensive as ordinary abalone.

Li Duoyu prying some general's hats, planning to go back and fry them directly.

Chen Wenchao's eyes were very sharp, and he immediately reached the sand with bulging bags, and as soon as he pulled it out, he caught a safflower crab.

When caught, the two big crows were as exaggerated as 30 centimeters when they were opened.

Brother-in-law Zhang Mingsheng was surprised: "Damn, this island is good, there is such a good thing, this kind of safflower crab is worth a lot of money during the New Year." ”

Li Duoyu was not surprised to catch safflower crabs here, they caught quite a few of them last time they came.

Brother-in-law and Xiaochao caught safflower crabs and went to Li Duoyu to pry small seafood, I have to say, in this era.

The most is this kind of small seafood that no one eats, a whole reef is all, and Li Duo only picks the biggest prying.

Two hundred and five had been locked up for too long, and when they got to land, they couldn't help but run and keep chasing those hermit crabs.

Li Duoyu said to it: "Don't mess with the big crab again, if you get your nose pinched again, I won't help you." ”

In less than twenty minutes, he pried four or five pounds, which is almost enough for a large family.

Immediately afterwards, Li Duoyu searched on the sand after the low tide, and the beach of Dongjia Reef was not the kind where you could run freely on it as soon as you could see sand at a glance.

It's half reef and half sand.

If you run barefoot, the barnacles attached to the reef will definitely teach you how to be a human being in minutes.

Li Duoyu finished prying the general's hat and continued to grab small seafood, this time his goal was to catch some razor clams.

The last time I came, Li Duoyu found that there were a lot of wild razor clams here, but this thing drilled very deep.

Even if there are tools to dig, it is not very easy to use, the best thing to use is salt, razor clams are extremely sensitive to salt.

If you sprinkle the salt down, the razor clams will want to drain all the salt water from the hole because of the discomfort, and they will burrow out of the sand.

And the moment it comes out, it's the best time to catch it.

Before he had taken two steps, Li Duoyu noticed a small hole in the sand that looked a little flat.

Looking at the shape of this hole, Li Duoyu knew what was inside.

Li Duoyu took out the bag of salt, broke up the lumps of salt, took out some coarse salt, and carefully poured it into the hole.

He is not as wasteful as the anchor in his previous life, he is a lot of salt when he pours it, which is too wasteful.

In this era, salt is still quite expensive, and if you push it back a few years, if they want to eat salt, they have to buy it with salt tickets.

After pouring the coarse salt into it, it didn't take long for the hole to start spraying water out, so violently that it seemed to drain all the water inside the hole.

The more vigorously you spray, the bigger it is, and this trick is very effective for most marine life, because table salt is high in salt, and once sprinkled in it, it will immediately make marine life uncomfortable and even dehydrated.

If there are creatures in the cave, it will definitely be unbearable, and the effect of using this trick to catch shrimp and hope for the tide is also good.

As the sand near the entrance of the cave bulged slightly, it looked like something was about to rush out.

Li Duoyu's right hand was already ready, and the moment it rushed out, Li Duoyu immediately held it.

Immediately afterwards, he used a shovel with his left hand to cut off the way back, so that even if the razor clams wanted to run, they couldn't run away.

The razor clams caught by Li Duoyu are not of the same species as the razor clams bred by Tang Ping in the village.

It's razor clams.

As the name suggests, it's easy to understand, yes, it looks like a thin bamboo.

Li Duoyu is not easy to say, which of these two types of razor clams is more delicious, but in Li Duoyu's impression, the people here in Rongcheng seem to prefer to eat razor clams.

The most common way to make razor clams is to stew them in soup or omelette.

The meat of the razor clams is a little more crispy, and it just so happens that this season is the breeding period of the razor clams, and the female with seeds and the male with paste in the meat of the razor clams at this time taste sweet and fatty.

And the bamboo clam that Li Duoyu just caught is as long as fifteen or sixteen centimeters, and it already belongs to the king level of razor clams.

If you catch a few more clams, you can make a bamboo clam garlic vermicelli today.

And the resources of Dongjia Reef did not disappoint Li Duoyu, and the area where he is located is full of razor clams.

He caught it in less than 40 minutes, and he made most of the barrels of razor clams, and by the way, he also caught a lot of shrimp girls.

In this era, the sea is really like coming to buy goods.

Brother-in-law and Xiaochao were even more exaggerated, making nearly a bucket of safflower crabs, a lot of conchs, and several large octopuses.

The octopuses have all turned white, and I guess I am afraid that they will escape, and I have been thrown by my brother-in-law many times.

My brother-in-law is an old fisherman, and the more you go out, the more safflower crabs there are, and the Zhao brothers were trapped on the reef because they were reluctant to come back.

But the brother-in-law had just seen the rising tide, and immediately rushed to the shore without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing that Li Duoyu also caught so many razor clams, his brother-in-law Zhang Mingsheng couldn't help but say: "Duoyu, this is really a good place." ”

It's just that Li Duoyu didn't expect that Chen Wenchao on the side said: "If Liu Mazi hadn't died here, it would indeed be a good place, and now people on the island don't dare to come here." ”

Li Duoyu suddenly turned his head.

Brother-in-law Zhang Mingsheng was stunned, blinked his eyes, turned his head mechanically, and looked at Chen Wenchao: "Who are you talking about, died here?" ”

"Ah, you don't know!"

"Nobody told me, and Duoyu didn't tell me either."

"That was last year, wasn't there a resurgence of smuggling last year, and then there were two young people in our village who drove the boat. There's one that's not gone here. ”

Zhang Mingsheng, who has been fishing at sea all the year round, is really taboo about this, he looked at the safflower crabs in his hand, and originally wanted to keep some of them for his family to eat.

Now that I think about it, I should sell them all, and after watching the tide rise, Zhang Mingsheng couldn't help but say.

"Fish, the tide is almost up, we can go and collect the nets."

Li Duoyu laughed:

"Okay, when the tide rises again, let's go and collect the net immediately."

At the same time, he shouted to the big yellow dog who was still spreading joy not far away: "Two hundred and five, come back quickly, we are leaving." ”

But just as they were about to leave the East Reef, 205 kept calling not far away, acting in a hurry.

Then, there was a "boom" sound on the sea, but the sound was different from usual.
