Chapter 262 Picked Up for Free
With the threat gone, everyone went into the sea to salvage the fish. They worked until the evening and finally salvaged most of the fish.
Even if a small number of them escaped, they would be satisfied. The harvest of this day was enough to carry out several missions.
Sure enough, high risk comes with high rewards.
For safety, they left the sea area in the dark.
Arriving at the new sea area, everyone excitedly discussed the next plan.
All the high-level magic tools and talismans have been used up, and the mid- and low-level ones are not very useful. Once you encounter a large animal, you will definitely die.
Everyone was confused about whether to reply or not.
I returned home, not only broke even, but also made a killing. But I was still a little disappointed, as the departure time was still far from the expected time, and I wanted to give it another try.
"How about this," Yun Xiang thought for a while, "My seniors and I will make some high-level talismans overnight." After all, only when everyone is safe can we have the energy to do other things.
"But their numbers are definitely limited. If we encounter these guys again, we must return immediately."
It would be good to stay for three days. Everyone agreed and nodded quickly.
"We will salvage in this sea area first. No matter what we harvest, we must collect it in the direction of return." Xie Yu then explained.
"The deep sea has become a hunting ground for large animals. If we go there again, we may not be as lucky as we are today."
Seeing such a terrifying scene once was enough, and everyone agreed with Xie Yu's proposal without any hesitation.
Yun wanted to hide the boat completely and block everyone's breath, but he took out the fog-hiding talisman out of concern, and the boat was completely immersed in the fog.
This evening, everyone was busy.
Those who make talismans make talismans, those who repair boats repair boats, those who help out, those who sort fish... they are busy until dawn, and then take turns to rest.
Those who are awake are responsible for casting the nets and collecting them.
They didn't gain much that day, but they were calm and thought, "Whatever you gain, you gain nothing."
As we were slowly sailing back, the wind suddenly started to blow on the sea. We hurriedly put up the protective shield and prepared for defense.
The wind grew stronger and stronger, the sky gradually darkened, the calm sea surface suddenly became turbulent, and the fishing boat began to sway violently up and down.
Everyone held on tightly to the ropes tied on the boat to prevent being shaken out of the boat.
Soon, it started to rain heavily.
Fortunately, it did not turn into a storm and it stopped early in the morning. The sun came out and it was immediately warm.
Yun Xiang was cleaning the deck when, "Plop!", a short and thick fish with particularly long pectoral fins that looked like bird wings fell at her feet.
Click, click, it jumped several times but didn't jump up. Yun Xiang calmly picked it up and threw it into the basket.
This silly flying fish came to the boat to practice flying.
Yun Xiang had just picked up the mop when another one fell off with a click.
…
She squatted down and pinched its wings. It was not injured, and she didn't hear any birds singing. This kind of fish can easily be intercepted by seabirds while gliding.
So how did it end up here?
Yun Xiang couldn't figure it out for a moment and just threw it into the basket.
“Snap!”
“Snap!”
…
Yun wanted to throw away the mop and wait for the flying fish to fall. She was like a rabbit, waiting in front of the basket for the flying fish to fall into it.
Although they didn't fall into the basket so accurately, they landed on the deck one after another.
"Captain, what's going on?" Li Zixi looked at the fish falling from the sky in surprise. Why hadn't he encountered such a thing?
"What are you standing there for? Come and help." There were more and more flying fish, and Yun Xiang couldn't handle it alone. Li Zixi happened to come over and directly conscripted some strong men.
Li Zixi didn't hesitate and quickly squatted down to pick it up. Who would be polite to someone who got it for free?
Why is she so enviable? Li Zixi looked at Yun Xiang with a complicated expression.
Yun Xiang thought he was still struggling with the question he had just asked, so he explained, "It might be because of the Mist Hidden Tree. There's often fog at sea, and the flying fish probably didn't pay attention and jumped right onto our boat."
Li Zixi was speechless for a moment, "...How stupid."
"It's really stupid."
“Snap!”…
The flying fish came crashing down on them. The two men hurriedly put up a small protective shield and took cover. If it was too big, it would bounce off the spaceship, which would be like letting a duck fly away.
Not knowing whether they had entered the territory of the flying fish or the flying fish had swam to their sea area, the two men silently watched the flying fish falling like rain, their faces flushed with excitement.
Everyone was listening to You Hao explaining the key points of steering when they suddenly heard a noise and hurried out.
"Oh shit..." Tengchong was the first to rush out of the cabin, but was knocked back.
The people behind him bumped into him and it took a while for them to separate.
Huang Lewei was smart. He walked around them and carefully climbed onto the deck. "Oh my god, fish, so many fish!"
The deck was filled with fish, almost as high as the edge of the boat. From time to time, some of them jumped back into the water, which made him feel sad.
The fish had stopped falling at this time, and Huang Lewei quickly turned around and reminded everyone to pick up the fish quickly.
Tengchong realized belatedly that it was a fish that hit him. Everyone looked at him with contempt and forbade him to go up there.
Tengchong was dissatisfied and said, "With so many things falling down, it's normal that I didn't see it clearly."
"Then you didn't smell any fishy smell?" Zeng Li looked at him in confusion.
Of course… after smelling it, Tengchong felt a little insecure, “I was stunned.”
"Use your head and think about what else could hit you at sea?"
Tengchong spoke without thinking, "Raindrops!"
“Puff…”
Seeing everyone burst into laughter, Tengchong finally reacted and his face turned red involuntarily, which led to even more unbridled laughter.
Tengchong was furious and asked, "What did I say wrong?"
"That's right! Haha..."
"Shut up."
Tengchong was finally left behind and was furious. What a bunch of disloyal guys!
As she was walking around angrily, she suddenly saw Xie Yu around the corner. She was startled and screamed, "Why are you still here?"
Xie Yu was startled, thinking it was some big deal. It turned out he was just angry. "With so many people around, I don't want to join in the fun."
So he went there just to join in the fun? Tengchong felt Xie Yu was hinting at him and immediately retorted, "I went there to help."
"oh."
Is that all? Tengchong felt that Xie Yu didn't trust him, "I said I was going to help."
Xie Yu was typing on the communicator. When she finished, she looked up and looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Then why haven't you gone yet?"
Hey, it turned out that he didn't know why he was left here. He immediately rolled up his sleeves and prepared to have a long talk with Xie Yu.
Xie Yu stood up, installed the communicator, and prepared to go upstairs to take a look.
Damn, I have such a bad temper, Tengchong said with a breath, "Do you know what's up there?"
"Of course," Xie Yu shook the communicator in his hand, "Youyou told me everything."
After saying that, he left triumphantly.
Damn, having a fiancée is such a big deal!
Tengchong continued to look for people in a bad mood, telling them about his frustrations: Bie Nao in front of the smart screen, the chatterbox Tong You, and the always dazed You Hao...
He rolled his eyes and thought, give up. He climbed up angrily. He didn't believe they could drive him down.
However, the fish had already been picked up by everyone, and they were forced to clean the deck... under the pretext of making him remember the fishy smell thoroughly.
When can I finally let out this breath?
However, he soon had his moment of glory.
