Chapter 445: Hundreds of Dolphins Hunting
"Ah Qiang, Ah Xian, does your village have a steel ship, the kind that can go to the deep sea for fun? If no one has one, can you help contact other villages to see if they have one?"
Lu Feng asked on the other end of the phone.
"Steel ship? Are you going to the deep sea this time?" Liang Ziqiang originally thought that they were going to go to a shallow sea island like Fox Bay Island to play, just like before.
"The main reason is that my wife saw killer whales on TV and thought they were very beautiful, so she wanted to go to the sea to see the real thing. But these creatures should not be found in shallow waters, so the only way to see them is in the deep sea, right?" Lu Feng revealed.
Liang Ziqiang actually wanted to say that he might not encounter killer whales in the deep sea. He had been in the deep sea for quite a while, and he had only encountered killer whales a few times.
"There are some in the deep sea, but you may not necessarily encounter them." Liang Ziqiang reminded him and then asked, "Besides you two, are there any other people? How many are there in total?"
"Including me, there are five of us in total. You've actually met all of them. Can you contact the ship?" Lu Feng sounded happy when he heard that there was hope.
"I have a boat. Brother Feng, when you come over, you can take my boat." Liang Ziqiang said.
"You have a big steel ship? How big is it? Can it go to the deep sea?" Lu Feng looked a little bit incredulous.
It has been a long time since Liang Ziqiang took Jiang Wen'ang to Taiquan Island to look for abalone. At that time, he still had a lotus-patterned wooden boat, and now the steel boat has been sailing for a long time, but Lu Feng still doesn't know this.
"Twenty-four meters. Don't worry, Brother Feng. This is a boat that specializes in deep-sea fishing. I've been driving it for more than a year. It will be two years in two months!"
"You've made it this far? Not bad, Qiang. Congratulations!"
"Isn't this all thanks to Brother Feng's help?" Liang Ziqiang chuckled. "By the way, do you have enough time? Going to the deep sea is different from playing in the shallow sea. You can't come back on the same day. It's best to prepare for five days. My trip to the deep sea to fish happens to take basically five days."
"One day is definitely not enough for the deep sea. We originally wanted three days. As for five days... that's no problem. We don't have anything else to do, but we still have time. Then I'll tell them to make two more days for them to come out and play!" Lu Feng made the decision quickly.
Liang Ziqiang felt envious after hearing this. It was different when one had a good family background. It sounded like one didn't have to work properly and could just spare five days to get some work done. It was not like the fishermen who had to endure hardships when going to the deep sea.
It is estimated that Lu Feng and his friends all run their own businesses. Only in this way can they make money and have the leisure time to flexibly spare so many days to go out to sea for fun.
They agreed on the phone that after Aqiang and Axian had rested for two days, when they went out to sea again the day after tomorrow, they would come to Changwang Village and go to the deep sea to play together.
Two days passed quickly. Early in the morning, Lu Feng and his group really drove to the village.
This time, it was actually a large truck that came. Liang Ziqiang didn't realize until they all got off the truck that they brought a lot of things with them, the most conspicuous of which were fishing rods.
It was not the kind of fishing gear that Liang Ziqiang and his friends usually used in shallow sea fishing, but rather a heavy rock fishing gear that looked exceptionally sturdy and heavy.
Liang Ziqiang was curious, are there such high-end fishing tackles for sale these days? But when he looked at the letters on them, he realized that what people bought were all imported goods.
In order to go deep-sea fishing, he bought imported fishing gear without any hesitation, which shows how well-off his family is.
Five people got out of the car one after another. Liang Ziqiang really recognized them all at first glance. Not a single one was a stranger.
More than two years ago, in August 1983, I went out to sea with Liang Ziqiang and Lin Baixian for the first time. We were the same five people. We didn’t have a boat at that time, so we rented a wooden boat from Zhong Yongrui’s family.
The two women seemed to be named Fangfang and Xiaoyue. Seeing Fangfang walking down with Lu Feng's arm around her, Liang Ziqiang immediately understood that the wife he was talking about on the phone was Fangfang.
When they went to Fox Bay Island two years ago, it seemed that Lu Feng was pursuing Fang Fang. In order to please Fang Fang, he asked Liang Ziqiang to catch a colorful knifefish for them.
Now she's my wife, at least I got her, so the ghost-head knife wasn't buried in vain...
In addition to Lu Feng, there were two other men, namely Lu Zheng and You Lijun.
When they arrived at the big pier together, Lu Feng suddenly discovered that there were not just one but three large steel ships parked in a row on the beach, which was quite dazzling.
You Lijun, who was standing next to him, looked around for a few seconds and suddenly didn't know which boat to board. He turned around and asked, "Which boat is yours, Aqiang?"
"Isn't this the Ziqiang? This must be it!"
As soon as Lu Feng saw the words "Ziqiang", he pointed at the ship and walked over there.
Unexpectedly, a boatman nearby spoke up:
"All three are the same, they all belong to Aqiang anyway!"
Lu Feng was really stunned. He looked at Liang Ziqiang and said:
"You bought three large steel ships in one go?!"
Liang Ziqiang chuckled and said, "I can't do anything else except fishing, so I just buy more boats. I'm determined to fish for the rest of my life!"
"Then I have to congratulate you a few more times!" Lu Feng immediately congratulated him again and again, and even Lu Zheng and You Lijun beside him followed suit to congratulate him.
Since they were going to be out at sea for several days, they decided to board the Ziqiang. After all, the Ziqiang was personally driven by Liang Ziqiang, and it was the only ship where Ah Qiang and Ah Xian were familiar with them.
The three ships headed for the deep sea together. The water surface was azure blue at first, with some places showing a hint of emerald green, but as they gradually entered the deep sea, the entire field of vision became an ink-like deep blue.
"It's so beautiful! The deep sea is completely different from the shallow sea!"
Fangfang and Xiaoyue were leaning on the railing, sighing.
"You can stay in the middle or front of the boat as much as possible, but don't get close to the stern!" Liang Ziqiang reminded them specifically, and then he shouted as usual: "Let's cast the net!"
Lu Feng and his crew were having fun, but Liang Ziqiang certainly couldn't just do nothing and lead them to wander the deep sea for five days. While they were having fun, Liang Ziqiang and the crew were trawling at the same time, just like they usually did when they went out to sea. He had already agreed on this with Lu Feng on the phone.
Lu Zheng, You Lijun and others were quite curious about the trawling process. Although they did not go near the stern, they all watched with interest as Li Liang and Lin Baixian untied the net and cast the water diversion board into the sea. They also watched Zhou Hui operate the winch. With a creaking sound, the steel cable was extended continuously, and the net bag was extended into the rolling white waves of the sea.
The big ship dragged along the sea for a long time. Suddenly, everyone on the ship, including the crew members and Lu Zheng, You Lijun and others, exclaimed.
Suddenly, a heavy "rain" began to fall on the sea one or two nautical miles away.
Countless small fish flew up from the sea water and then fell back to the sea surface in dense groups.
The entire sea area was occupied by such densely packed small fish, as if a giant sky curtain several half a mile wide was pulled up.
"There are too many fish that have been delivered to our doorstep, right? Why don't you drive the boat forward quickly to haul them out?" Lu Zheng, one of Lu Feng's group, reminded them hastily.
"So many small fish suddenly appeared, I'm afraid it's not simple..."
As Liang Ziqiang spoke, he picked up the telescope and looked into the distance.
It was a huge school of sardines that swept in like a storm, and it could also be called a "sardine storm."
However, the sardine storm was not the most shocking.
Liang Ziqiang pointed his camera downward and immediately discovered that in addition to the large school of sardines jumping in the air, there were also groups of gray figures moving in groups on the sea.
dolphin!
There were actually more than a hundred dolphins, forming groups and cooperating with each other like a pack of wolves in the water, and they continued to surround the huge school of sardines.
A semicircle was already taking shape and gradually shrinking.
Although Liang Ziqiang had encountered dolphins during his long time in the deep sea, this was the first time he had seen hundreds of dolphins collectively hunting sardines.
The spectacular scene made Lu Feng and his companions stunned. They all rushed to borrow the telescope from Liang Ziqiang to watch...
