Chapter 41 The Stonefish of the Deep Sea



Whether animal or plant, each has its own characteristics and abilities. Living by the sea, it is even more important to learn about the characteristics of marine plants and animals, so as to create convenience for oneself and avoid danger.

People must learn until they die in order to make the most of their precious life.

After circling the entire area without finding any ferocious large fish, Chen Hong changed into her diving suit, put on her gear, and went into the water.

Once underwater, Chen Hong removed her breathing apparatus and tested how long she could breathe through her lungs. She swam comfortably on the seabed like a fish, attracting a colorful school of fish that, mistaking her for a new companion, curiously gathered around her to observe her.

Seeing that she was not in any danger and did not attack them, they stayed by her side and played leisurely.

There were many brightly colored fish that Chen Hong didn't recognize, and she didn't know if they tasted good. They weren't very big either, so there was no need to catch them.

Later, when we buy a fish tank, we'll go back and do some research to see which fish are suitable to keep, and then we can catch a few for our son to play with. She slowly observed the movements around her, wary of any dangerous, well-hidden sea creatures.

Just as she was thinking about the dangerous marine species she had found online, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that a reef about ten meters away from her right front 3 o'clock position seemed to move slightly.

Chen Hong immediately became alert and observed carefully. It was a stonefish weighing more than 5 kilograms, lying on the reef disguised as a rock, waiting for its prey to come to it.

Chen Hong slowed down, gently took out her homemade crossbow from her spatial storage, quietly aimed at the area in front of the stonefish's head, and with a whoosh, the crossbow bolt accurately pierced the stonefish's head.

The stonefish suddenly swung its tail and fell headfirst from the reef to the seabed.

Chen Hong first observed the surrounding movements and noticed that bright red fins suddenly extended from the rocks to the left, which were 3 meters away from the stonefish. He quickly aimed and pulled the trigger, and with a "whoosh," he shot another stonefish.

Chen Hong breathed a sigh of relief after scanning the surroundings again and finding no other lurking stonefish.

It seems there's some danger in this seabed; no one ever dives here, otherwise stonefish would have been caught and eaten long ago.

Stonefish, also known as tigerfish, is one of the most poisonous fish in the ocean, but that doesn't stop it from being one of the most delicious. Its flesh is nutritious and flavorful, comparable to abalone, and even surpasses tuna when served as sashimi.

Although its dorsal spines can easily poison people, in China, the world's most avid and discerning gourmets are the natural enemies that have managed to eat them to extinction.

Chen Hong slowly approached, pulled out a two-meter-long thin stick from her spatial storage, poked at them to confirm they were dead, and then grabbed the arrow tails and put them into the spatial bucket.

Holding a long stick, Chen Hong poked any suspicious objects on the rocks first. Only when there was no reaction did she feel at ease picking up sea cucumbers, shellfish, and sea urchins from the sand.

She only picked up the sea snails she recognized that weren't dangerous. Through the information she found online during this time, Chen Hong learned about many dangerous plants and animals on the seabed, which made her feel a sense of awe for the ocean that she had never experienced before. She was no longer as reckless and daring as before, and she was fearless about everything.

She is now much more careful and cautious underwater, with safe operation being her top priority.

Chen Hong harvested a lot of large abalone, geoduck clams, sea cucumbers, sea urchins, shellfish, various conches, and also picked up more than 30 large starfish.

Chen Hong caught dozens of lobsters and crabs, as well as two stonefish. With a bountiful harvest, she climbed onto the boat, took out her phone, and saw that it was seven o'clock. It was time to head back.

Suddenly, she grabbed her breathing nozzle and froze: she had been underwater for over two hours without an oxygen tank! How was she breathing? Without lungs? What was she breathing with? Did she have superpowers now? Had she become a special talent defying the laws of nature?

While under intense mental pressure underwater, rapidly harvesting seafood, they didn't notice their own abnormality; they had become an anti-human being with special abilities.

When did this change happen? Chen Hong thought back carefully. When she went into the water this time, she originally wanted to test how long she could last without an oxygen tank.

But this time, I could previously stay underwater for thirty minutes without an oxygen tank. Going back further, I didn't even know the exact timeframe for swimming and diving in freshwater before I got married.

Thinking of this, Chen Hong's eyes widened and her mouth gaped open: My God, no way! Could it be that I was born to live in the water, like a mermaid? What should I call me, a fish-man = a fisherman?

Or was it that they were originally gifted and then ate the products of the space, making them even more mutated! But since I got this space, I have carefully tried everything I eat and use, and apart from my eyesight being a little better, my strength being a little greater, my body being a little stronger, my spirit being a little better, and my skin being a little smoother, there haven't been any major changes.

Thinking of the space and then of rebirth, I realized that in my previous life I developed asthma and suffered severe loss of lung function, and had not been able to go into the water for more than ten years.

Could it be that in his previous life he was a fish, whose respiratory system would fail him if he left the water, so the heavens couldn't bear to see him suffer and reborn him back to the seaside, so that he could never leave the ocean in this life?
