Chapter 169: Hot Pursuit
"Someone treats this thing as a treasure?"
Lin Baixian was originally driving the boat to escape, but when he heard Liang Ziqiang say that the fish could be sold for money and was quite valuable, he turned the bow of the boat around while driving.
He joined Liang Ziqiang's group and chased after them.
"Fuck, why are you following me so closely? Why don't you run for your life? Aren't you afraid of being eaten alive?"
"We are brothers, I can't just abandon you and let you take risks alone, right?" Lin Baixian's eyes gleamed with money, but his words were high-sounding and righteous.
The coward who ran away just now seemed to have nothing to do with him, and Lin Baixian started to talk nonsense again.
Liang Ziqiang was too lazy to pay attention and had no time to pay attention.
While driving the boat to chase, he also had to pull up a net and walk to the side of the boat from time to time, ready to throw the net into the sea.
Lin Baixian is also a man of action and quick action when it comes to money. He is already carrying a fishing net and getting ready.
"Fuck, you've eaten all my groupers, I'll let you go!" Lin Baixian shouted as he cast his net, as if he was not making money but avenging the groupers.
Liang Ziqiang estimated that not all the groupers in the reefs were eaten by the cat sharks. Perhaps half of them were eaten, and the other half were frightened by these uninvited guests and fled from their habitat.
That's why the two of them fished for a long time but didn't catch a single grouper.
Liang Ziqiang finally aimed at one of the cat sharks and threw the net over.
When I looked, I found that I missed the target!
I didn't give up and tried again, but still failed.
When Liang Ziqiang usually goes out to sea to cast nets, he basically always catches the right fish, with very few deviations or misses.
The reasons for the repeated mistakes and failures this time are very obvious.
He planned to come here to fish for grouper today and had no intention of casting a net to catch fish, so he was unable to bring Liang Zifeng with him.
At the moment, he had to cast the net and run back to the cabin to adjust the speed and direction of the boat at any time to keep up with the cat shark's escape trajectory.
If you encounter a slow-moving school of fish, it may be possible to do these two things at the same time, but if you encounter extremely fast-swimming fish, it is simply unrealistic.
Basically, when he ran to the cabin to steer the boat, the direction was correct. By the time he ran back to the bow and side of the boat to cast the net, the cat shark had already swam flexibly in another direction.
Catsharks are fast swimmers and are also cunning, otherwise they wouldn't have fooled the white-fronted terns into submission and automatically offered themselves up to the sharks...
Lin Baixian's voice of annoyance and scolding could be heard in my ears: "What kind of bullshit cat shark is this? It's a monster, right? Damn, Aqiang, do you feel that these guys are playing tricks on us, just like they played tricks on that tern..."
You see dozens of cat sharks sinking from time to time, and just when you think they are about to disappear, they suddenly pop up on the water surface, letting you know that they are still in front of you and have not completely escaped.
Is this a game of chase and escape? Is it addictive? After chasing for an unknown amount of time, Liang Ziqiang finally made a catch. He caught a cat shark in the net. When he pulled it up, he found that it was one of the smaller ones, less than one meter long.
If you look closely at the cat shark out of the water, you can see that the base color is actually a bit cream-colored, covered with brown spots. Those spots are quite confusing at first glance and can be confused with the colors of some reefs.
The cat shark was still a little grumpy after being caught in the net, and bared its teeth at him.
But this thing is not aggressive towards humans by nature, and its eyes look like a cat, so Liang Ziqiang didn't feel that it had any power when it was angry. Instead, it looked cute and fierce, comparable to Duobao at home.
Of course, the so-called "scared, fierce" is just a human perception. For fish, it is the "real fierce".
Those rich people who keep this thing at home can only give it a large glass tank alone. If it is kept with other fish, there is only one result, the whole tank of fish will become food for it.
For example, the blue-mouthed bride fish can become a delicious blue-mouthed bride fish in a few minutes...
There was an oversized basin on the boat, Liang Ziqiang filled the basin with seawater, put the cat shark into the basin, and then covered it with a lid. There were air holes on the lid.
There was no time to waste. After doing all this, he immediately went back into the cabin to increase the speed of the boat and adjusted the direction again in order to keep up with the latest escape route of the cat sharks.
On the way, after many failures, Lin Baixian finally succeeded in catching one.
Encouraged, the two continued to chase closely and never gave up. Fortunately, the group of cat sharks did not panic and did not disperse during the chase. They still maintained a group state and swam together.
Maybe, people didn't take them seriously at all. After all, they chased them all the way and only caught one.
Liang Ziqiang kept trying and adjusting his methods, and finally, after a while, he caught another cat shark.
This time, the fish was slightly bigger than the previous one. He also put it into a large basin filled with sea water and decided to try again.
He kept observing while chasing, and he was always in the relatively safe sea.
But he found that they were far away from the area of the nameless island and were now in the area where the villagers usually fished.
Another fishing boat appeared on the sea, swaying in the distance.
At a glance, it was quite coincidental that it was Li Liang and Deng Zhaocai.
"The underwater drill is not even placed here, what are you two doing here?" Liang Ziqiang shouted at the other party.
"We can't just rely on the little money we get from the bottom of the sea! Since it's the beginning of winter these two days, we should go out to the sea and look for some chances to get lucky and encounter a large school of fish during the winter season!" Li Liang replied loudly.
"The winter flood may have to get a little colder. Have you found it?"
"No, the boat is still empty now. We wasted the fuel money!" Li Liang replied, "What about you two? Are you also looking for winter floods while driving the boat?"
Because they were far away, Li Liang and the other man did not notice that they were chasing a group of cat sharks.
Without waiting for Liang Ziqiang to answer, Lin Baixian quickly answered loudly: "Yes, we are also looking for Dong Xun!"
As he spoke, he winked at Liang Ziqiang frantically. He was afraid that Liang Ziqiang would accidentally tell the truth and say that he was fishing for grouper on Wuming Island.
But when it comes to money, this guy's IQ is still online.
Liang Ziqiang would certainly not reveal the private secret of the Nameless Island. After all, even if all the groupers there were gone this year, it would still be worth it for them to go there and collect them after the spring of next year.
He followed up on Lin Baixian's words and loudly replied to Li Liang: "We have also been running around in the sea for a long time, but we couldn't find any trace of Dong Xun! But we found a group of cat sharks. Some people buy these for fun, and I heard they are not cheap. You two have nothing else to do, why don't you come and catch the cat sharks together!"
Anyway, he and Lin Baixian had never been able to catch many cat sharks, and they would run away soon. It would be better to call Li Liang and others to chase them together. If they could catch a few, Li Liang and Deng Zhaocai would be able to make a small profit.
"What is it, a catshark?"
Li Liang didn't seem to be familiar with this thing. It's not surprising, fishermen of this era didn't have much idea about ornamental marine fish, not to mention that cat sharks were not common.
Liang Ziqiang didn't have the time to explain, nor did he have the ability to teach a fisherman who knew nothing about ornamental fish to master a wealth of knowledge about ornamental fish.
After all, he couldn't conjure up a color TV, so Li Liang had nothing to do at night and watched the Ocean Channel of later generations.
He simply replied: "Don't worry about it, this thing can be sold at a high price anyway! The money is running ahead, it's up to you two whether you want to pick it up or not!"
He felt that he suffered because he had no one to cooperate with him, otherwise he would have caught a lot of cat sharks. Li Liang was different. He had Deng Zhaocai on his boat. One person drove the boat to control the direction and speed at any time, and the other person cast the net. The chance of catching cat sharks would be greatly increased! After saying that, he didn't say anything more, and continued to speed up the boat, chasing after the group of cat sharks swimming freely...
