Fu Wan's suggestion was naturally agreed upon by Boss Fu. Fu Wan drank some water and ate some biscuits to replenish her strength. Then she asked Boss Fu to drive the boat to the approximate location where she had previously surfaced.
This is the back side of the Golden Bird's Nest Island, less than ten meters from their border with other provinces.
Because it was already past 10 p.m., and the area was quite remote, there were no fishing boats with their lights on in sight.
Fu Wan felt she had rested enough and her whole body felt full of energy again.
"Dad, Brother Liang, I'm going down!"
Boss Fu responded to Fu Liang. There did look like there were more fish in this area than there had been before, including more mackerel that were jumping out of the water from time to time.
At this point, Boss Fu and Fu Liang were too lazy to even take out their fishing rods. Instead, they pulled out the hand-thrown nets that were on the boat and cast them out at the fish on the surface of the sea.
As soon as Fu Wan entered the sea, she felt her body being bumped by a fish. When she was fully submerged, she realized that she was surrounded by a lot of sardines.
Damn it, I've jumped into a sardine field!
Thank goodness, I didn't jump into the needlefish school.
When the sardines saw a large creature suddenly appear in the school of fish, they immediately scattered in a panic.
Fu Wan calmly continued swimming deeper into the sea. Deep down, she still hoped to find another grouper as big as the one before. Unfortunately, she searched several rocky caves but didn't see a single grouper, let alone a grouper.
Not to mention the rat-like creature weighing over ten kilograms that she was thinking about!
It seems this thing is truly rare and hard to come by!
Fu Wan had no choice but to give up and continue swimming deeper into the sea with her speargun.
Fu Wan didn't see any sperm whales on the road this time. She guessed that the encounter with the baby sperm whale was just a coincidence. After all, sperm whales are social animals. She had just witnessed their funeral ceremony, so the sperm whales should still be in the same place.
Fu Wan didn't encounter any sperm whales, but she did encounter the type of fish she least wanted to meet in the sea.
shark!
The shark wasn't very big, only about two meters long. It was probably full, and Fu Wan was about to avoid it when the creature swam right past her without even glancing at her.
Without the slightest hesitation or lingering attachment.
Fu Wan was so frightened by the shark that she broke out in a cold sweat. She only swam out from behind the reef after the shark had disappeared from sight.
However, this misfortune turned into a blessing in disguise. Fu Wan had only swum a short distance in the direction the shark had come from when she spotted the fish she was looking for.
Its laterally compressed body is shaped like a disc, with a blue top and orange-red bottom, and a silvery-white body in the middle, along with many silver spots.
Isn't this exactly why I came out here? Moonfish!
The moonfish clearly had no idea that someone was watching it from a short distance away; it was leisurely drifting in the sea.
This moonfish is definitely not as big as the one Fu Wan caught before. This moonfish is probably not even a meter long, but compared to the other small sea fish around it, it is still considered a big fish.
It was unlikely that such a large creature could be caught directly, so Fu Wan could only quickly take the harpoon off her back and then attach the bamboo arrows and fishing line.
Fearing the moonfish might escape, Fu Wan quickened her pace.
Fortunately, the moonfish didn't swim far. When Fu Wan picked up her speargun and aimed at it, it was still feeding on plankton near the coral reef.
Now was the perfect time to fire the night watch. Fu Wan pulled the trigger of the harpoon, and the bamboo arrow on the harpoon immediately flew out with a "whoosh".
Fu Wan felt a splash, and then a layer of mud and sand was instantly thrown up in the seawater in front of her. When she swam forward to check, only a thin thread remained next to the coral reef. The bamboo arrow and the moonfish had disappeared without a trace.
It actually got away!
This moonfish looks rather clumsy, but I didn't expect it to swim so fast!
If the Moonfish could understand Fu Wan's thoughts, it would definitely curse the two-legged beasts as not being human. If this were to happen, who wouldn't run away as fast as they could!
Fu Wan regretfully removed the silk threads entangled on the coral reef, and almost the next second, she spotted moonfish in the coral reef not far away.
It wasn't the moonfish, but rather her bamboo arrow.
When Fu Ming was making bamboo arrows, he was worried that they wouldn't be eye-catching enough, so he specially bought some red paper, soaked it in water, and dyed the tails of the bamboo arrows red.
The Fu family has a mysterious obsession with the color red. The flags on the ship must be red, and the hair ornaments that Fu Ling bought must also be red. So, when it came to dyeing the tail of the bamboo arrow, Fu Ming's first instinct was to dye it red.
At this moment, the red color stood out brightly against the gray seabed. Fu Wan tried to approach the coral reef, which was about half a person tall, with the least amount of noise. As soon as she picked up the bamboo arrow, she sensed that something was wrong.
There's clearly something at the other end of this bamboo arrow!
That means the moonfish is still on the bamboo arrow!
Fu Wan was no longer disappointed. She reattached the harpoon to her back and gently pulled the bamboo arrow to determine the location of the moonfish.
Perhaps the pulling force was not strong enough, because the moonfish did not feel the pull of the bamboo arrow. Before long, Fu Wan saw the silver light of the moonfish less than half a meter from the entrance of the cave in the coral reef.
It was a shock when I saw it.
The bamboo arrow barely pierced the side of the moonfish, the arrowhead hanging precariously from the edge of its fin, seemingly about to fall off.
Thank goodness, the bamboo arrowhead had a barb, otherwise I would have pulled it off by myself.
Fu Wan didn't dare to pull the bamboo arrow anymore. Fortunately, the moonfish was not far from her at this time. Fu Wan looked around the coral reef cave and found that it was no problem to reach in with the net in her hand.
What are we waiting for? Let's get started!
Fu Wan untied the net bag from her waist, unfolded it, and covered the moonfish with it.
The moonfish was caught off guard and caught completely in the net.
Even a fool would struggle at this point. The moonfish violently thrashed its tail, trying to escape from the net, but Fu Wan had already tightened and locked the opening of the net as quickly as possible.
After another round of pulling and tugging, it took Fu Wan almost half an hour to finally pull the moonfish out of the rock cave.
Fortunately, Fu Wan can breathe underwater, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to hold out against this moonfish for so long.
The moonfish weighed about 20 pounds. Fu Wan was pulling the net containing the moonfish towards the surface of the sea when a large creature, three or four meters long, fell from above her.
Fortunately, Fu Wan reacted quickly and dodged in time. The huge black thing slowly sank to the seabed and landed a few meters below Fu Wan.
What is this thing?!
