As the tide receded to the very back, Chen Zhiyao finally discovered valuable seafood, besides fish, on the outskirts of the island.
Before her was a cave formed by two rocks, and inside was a coconut snail the size of two fists.
Chen Zhiyao reached into the clamp in her hand and pulled the big guy out in no time.
This coconut snail feels quite heavy in my hand; it must weigh at least one and a half pounds.
"What a pity, if it could grow to two pounds, the price could double."
She said it was a pity, but she wouldn't put the coconut snail back, since it was hard to say whether she could find it again next time.
This coconut snail seemed to be a switch, and all sorts of valuable seafood slowly appeared.
Walking behind a large rock, I looked down and spotted a moray eel with a small fish in its mouth.
This guy was enjoying his breakfast when he suddenly found himself suspended in mid-air, unable to move.
Next, it was placed in the bucket and gathered together with all the other seafood on the island.
Walking and stopping frequently, Chen Zhiyao carefully examined every possible hiding place for seafood.
Bread Crab +2
Conch +2
Sea urchin +4
Abalone +3
Orchid Crab +3
Blue Crab +4
Red Flower Crab +2
...
After circling around the perimeter of the reef island, Chen Zhiyao's bucket was almost full.
They were mostly found on the outskirts of the rocky island, presumably from other places.
However, although these items look like a lot, they are still half the amount compared to yesterday.
Chen Zhiyao thought to herself that the seafood in each place is limited, so it seems she can't just stay in one place to fish.
Seeing that the tide was about to rise, she quickly grabbed her things and prepared to go to the pond to catch fish.
We had only gone halfway when we heard Chen Weiqiang's excited voice from ahead:
"There are lots of fish in the puddle, come and catch them!"
Chen Zhiyao looked up and saw her father standing by a large puddle, waving his hand vigorously to call for help.
She was far away, and when she arrived, the three of them were already happily catching fish in the pit.
By this time, the water at the bottom of the pit had been drained, and it had been divided into three smaller pits by stones of varying sizes.
Standing on it, Chen Zhiyao could clearly see the fish leaping in the puddle.
However, the puddle is only so big, and there's no need for everyone to go in.
Seeing that there was nowhere left to stand, Chen Zhiyao turned around and went to the funnel-shaped puddle next to her.
The puddle here isn't big, and the water inside has long been pumped out.
Before she even went down, she could already see sea fish jumping and frolicking at the bottom of the pit.
Seeing that there were many sea snails on the rocks above the puddle, Chen Zhiyao happily started working.
Spicy snail +8
Flower snail +6
Half-screw + 6
Eye Snail +4
Spiny Snail +5
Mussels +9
...
The top ring consists mostly of smaller conches, weighing only about three or four pounds in total.
Further down, the crevices in the rocks are mostly filled with various kinds of seafood with relatively large heads.
Chen Zhiyao moved away two fist-sized pebbles, revealing an orchid crab hiding in a crevice.
As soon as the stone was removed, the orchid crab inside immediately raised its two large pincers, attempting to attack her.
However, before he could even touch Chen Zhiyao, he was caught in the all-purpose clip.
"This orchid crab is quite plump, it must weigh at least seven or eight ounces."
Soon, she found a bread crab sunbathing on a rock.
Upon seeing someone approaching, the bread crab quickly sprayed water towards the source of danger.
Immediately afterwards, a clear jet of water sprayed onto Chen Zhiyao's feet.
Unfortunately, this didn't scare the person away. The next second, she grabbed the more than one-pound bread crab and put it into the bucket.
Then he was met with ridicule: "Is that all you've got? Who are you trying to scare?"
As they approached the bottom of the pit, Chen Zhiyao discovered a rock covered in abalone.
The rock wasn't big, but it was covered with tiny abalone.
Although they weren't as big as yesterday's, there were still quite a few, weighing about three or four pounds in total.
Blue Crab +3
Red Flower Snail +2
Bread Crab 3
Blue Flower Snail +2
Sea urchin +5
Coconut snail +1
Conch +2
...
After walking and stopping frequently, Chen Zhiyao finally reached the bottom of the pit 20 minutes later.
The bottom of the puddle wasn't very big; it looked about the size of a single bed.
The uneven rocks divided the already small pit into two smaller pools.
The puddles with higher water levels were completely dry, and on the surface, there were only some small stones, slightly larger than a fist.
But there's more to discover beneath the rock.
Chen Zhiyao deftly moved the small stones aside, and soon a small sandy pit was revealed, containing a small amount of water.
However, that's not the main point. The important thing is that there are several small green dragons hiding at the bottom of the pit.
“One, two, three… six.”
This small pit contained a total of six small green dragons, four large and two small.
In addition, there were two large conch shells, each as long as a hand.
Of the six baby green dragons, she released the smallest one and kept the remaining five.
Before even reaching the bottom of the water pit, Chen Zhiyao found three stone gobies and a red eel in some of the crevices between the rocks.
The water at the bottom of the pit was drained, and the sea fish inside were forced to huddle together.
At the sound of the noise, the fish inside jumped out one after another.
Sure enough, Chen Zhiyao caught a black sea bream the size of her palm right in mid-air.
"These fish are quite lively."
As she spoke, she picked up the fishing net with a broad smile and scooped up all the fish that were jumping out of the puddle.
Sea bass +4
Sea Wolf +5
Golden Pomfret +5
White pomfret +7
Yellow Croaker +12
Balang fish + n
...
The pool wasn't very big, and the sea fish inside were also relatively small, with the largest sea bass and perch weighing only about four or five pounds.
After catching all the sea fish in the water, Chen Zhiyao started catching fish in the crevices of the rocks.
Before long, she pulled out two stone nine-headed cats and one yellow-footed cat from a narrow crevice in the rocks.
Then, she moved stones in a place full of small pebbles.
After moving all the small stones aside, a thick three-knife fish was quickly revealed, which looked to weigh at least a pound.
"Haha, I didn't expect to find three-knife fish here."
That wasn't all. A little while later, Chen Zhiyao pulled out a red-spotted fish weighing nearly two pounds from a corner.
Finally, she also pulled out 6 black sea bream and 2 turbot from the mud at the bottom of the pit.
Today was another day of overflowing buckets.
