Upon receiving the last set of ten traps, the two happily continued to collect the fruits of their labor.
However, after the first fish trap was successfully pulled onto the boat, the second fish trap unexpectedly encountered resistance.
"Damn it, the fish trap is stuck."
Feng Ye frowned and tried to pull the cage out, but it seemed to be firmly held in place by something. He couldn't move it.
"Is it stuck?"
Ah-chan asked in confusion, put down his sorting work, walked to the side of the boat, and tried to move the cage, but it didn't budge.
"What do we do? Go into the water and get it done?"
Ah-Can looked up at Feng Ye, seeking his opinion.
It's understandable that you'd get stuck here, as the area below is full of rocks.
They were just lucky that they didn't get stuck after all this time.
"We have no choice but to go down and take a look."
Feng Ye pondered for a moment, then nodded.
As he spoke, he turned and went to the cabin, where he took out the diving equipment that Feng Xuan had bought but had not yet used.
With such a great tool, of course it should be put to use, so there's no need for the arduous task of naked diving.
He took off his shirt, pants, and rain boots, then put on a breathing mask, connected the air hose, and put on his flippers.
After getting dressed, Feng Ye grabbed the gunwale and jumped into the sea.
The cool seawater instantly enveloped his entire body.
He took a deep breath, then slowly swung his flippers and dived down to the seabed.
After diving less than three meters, we saw the underwater reefs and fish traps, which were lined up along the reefs, looking like long dragons swimming on the seabed.
However, the trap was not stuck here.
He had no choice but to swim along the direction of the cage, using his flippers to move his feet.
Soon, he arrived at the edge of the huge reef.
The water here is deeper, about four or five meters deep.
The seawater was a little murky, but the underwater light was still quite sufficient, and the visibility was pretty good. You could clearly see the snails and abalone clinging to the rocks, as well as the scattered fish, shrimp, and crabs swimming around.
Here, the reef encounters a precipice that drops almost vertically at a 90-degree angle, its bottom unseen.
Looking down, it was pitch black, like a giant monster opening its blood-red maw, devouring everything.
The fish trap got stuck at the edge of the reef.
Feng Ye swam over and saw that the other end of the cage had fallen off the cliff and disappeared into the darkness.
He guessed that the fish trap might have been carried down by the tide.
Feng Ye glanced at the cage and saw several small green dragons crawling around inside.
He happily moved the stuck cage from its current position to a smoother spot, and then tried to pull it.
As he expected, the cage was only pulled up a little before it got stuck again.
This time, it's almost certain that they're stuck below the cliff.
Feng Ye took a deep breath and decided to dive down to the bottom of the cliff to take a look.
He gently swung his flippers and carefully slid down the edge of the cliff.
As he ventured deeper, the surrounding light began to dim, as if being gradually swallowed by darkness.
The once clearly visible seawater became hazy, and visibility gradually decreased, as if it were covered by a thick veil.
In this dim underwater world, the number of fish swimming around gradually increased.
They each go their own way, showing no signs of forming groups, and all swim around in the sea in scattered groups.
These fish are colorful and come in various shapes and sizes; some are plump, while others are slender and delicate...
They swim freely in the sea.
Within his field of vision, he was pleasantly surprised to find two sea bass, one large and one small.
The larger sea bass looked to weigh at least five or six pounds, while the smaller one weighed only two or three pounds. It followed closely behind the larger fish, perhaps seeking protection.
In addition, he also saw three black sea bream, two mullet, and some colorful coral fish.
Unfortunately, he did not bring any fishing gear or prepare anything to hold the fish.
Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as the fish swam in the sea, unable to catch them and take them away.
I don't know how deep they dived, but I estimate it was about fifteen meters.
Feng Ye finally reached the bottom of the cliff.
At this depth, the pressure of the seawater is quite high, but the human body can withstand it, and he did not feel any discomfort.
However, it was eerily quiet down there, but fortunately, there were quite a few different kinds of creatures around.
Looking around, I noticed that the cliff face was covered with abalone and conch.
Beneath their feet lay soft mud and sand, with large patches of seaweed and seagrass growing among them, and some fish swimming around, causing the seaweed to sway gently.
As he watched the swaying water plants, a song he had frequently seen while watching videos in his past life involuntarily came to mind.
Like a seaweed
Seaweed, seaweed, swaying with the waves...
Seaweed, seaweed, dancing in the waves...
"Damn, this song is so catchy!"
Feng Ye shook his head, dispelling the demonic sounds in his mind, and began searching for the trapped cage.
He followed the ground cage and searched all the way, and soon found the problem.
It turned out that the fish trap was stuck on a coral reef.
This coral reef is colorful and varied in shape, resembling an underwater garden, full of mystery and beauty.
Many coral fish swam among them, and a few small green dragonfish hid among them, their long tentacles sticking out.
