In the past few days, Tang Youyou, Li Lin, and Yang Yi have been going to the beach and fishing with Chen Zhiyao every day.
Every day before dawn, the four of them would set off early, heading towards the seaside with anticipation as the sun rose.
Whether it's shellfish and conch left behind after the tide recedes, or crabs and eels hidden in the crevices of the rocks, they all end up in their pockets.
After the tide came in, the beach became a great spot for fishing, and the group happily joined Chen Zhiyao in fishing.
In the past few days, the three of them have become more and more skilled at fishing, and each of them has caught several large fish weighing more than 10 pounds.
Yang Yi had been ridiculed by his family and friends for fishing for the past two years, but this time he finally got his revenge.
Every day, she proudly posts photos of her various fish catches on her WeChat Moments.
This person only posts photos but not locations, which angered several fishing enthusiasts so much that they blocked his WeChat Moments.
Everything here is great, the only downside is that the ultraviolet radiation is just too strong.
Despite the fact that the three of them carefully applied sunscreen and wore sun-protective clothing every day.
However, even with such comprehensive protective measures, in just four days, everyone's skin inevitably darkened several shades.
Tang Youyou and Li Lin, who love beauty, apply two face masks every day, but they don't seem to have much effect.
However, when they saw their bank account balances soaring, those minor worries were long forgotten.
The scenery here is beautiful, there are many places to visit, and you can even make money. The three of them were so happy that they didn't want to go back to work.
However, not going to work was not an option, so the three of them pleaded and begged for another day off.
Happy times always fly by, and before we knew it, it was the last day of the holiday.
Knowing that they had to catch the high-speed train in the afternoon, Chen Zhiyao did not take them out to sea.
After breakfast, the group headed straight for the village's rocky beach in high spirits and familiarity with the area.
Perhaps it was because it was the last day, but the group was particularly lucky today.
Upon arriving at the rocky beach, Tang Youyou discovered a nest of large blue crabs, a total of four, all weighing over half a pound.
The two largest ones weighed about eight ounces each.
The four large blue crabs made the three people standing nearby, who were still empty-handed, green with envy.
Before long, Li Lin caught a huge flower eel weighing six or seven pounds. Holding this arm-thick beast, her mouth was practically stretched to the back of her ears.
It looked like a snake, and she wouldn't have dared to touch it before.
However, after these few days of practice, she can now catch moray eels with tongs without batting an eye.
Seeing that everyone else had found something good while Yang Yi was still empty-handed, he felt a pang of jealousy.
Suddenly, he felt something hard under his feet.
Yang Yi looked down and saw that it was a swimming crab nestled in the sand.
The person was hiding peacefully in the sand when suddenly someone stepped on them. Now, they are raising their two large pincers and glaring angrily at him.
"Haha, here comes the good stuff."
Yang Yi's face lit up with joy, and he immediately used the tongs in his hand to grab it.
But the crab was unusually agile; it dodged sideways to the left and then scurried off to the left in a flurry of movements.
"Don't be afraid!"
Yang Yi hurriedly chased after him, but accidentally tripped and fell, getting covered in mud.
Tang Youyou and Li Lin burst into laughter when they saw Yang Yi's disheveled appearance.
Ignoring the two gloating men, he immediately got up from the ground and chased after the big crab.
Finally, after a chase, Yang Yi successfully caught the half-pound swimming crab.
"Look at my giant crab!"
He proudly showed his spoils to Tang Youyou and Li Lin, a satisfied smile on his face.
At this moment, Chen Zhiyao, who was walking alone at the front, suddenly waved excitedly to the three of them.
"Come here quickly!"
There were other people gathering seafood on this side of the rocky beach, so she didn't dare to be too loud and could only urge them on.
The three of them looked into a crevice in the rock, following Chen Zhiyao's hand.
In an instant, everyone was so surprised that their mouths were agape enough to fit an egg, and their eyes were wide open like copper bells.
There were actually five plump little green dragons hiding in that crevice! And each one was a big guy weighing six or seven ounces.
They either curled up in a ball or slowly wriggled their bodies, looking quite leisurely.
These giant lobsters were completely unaware that they had been targeted by evil humans.
The crevice in the rock is about the width of an adult's arm and about a meter deep.
The crevice in front of her was too deep; even with the tongs extended as far as they could, Chen Zhiyao still couldn't reach it.
Seeing that her friends had all arrived, she quickly instructed her best friend to stay and watch over the place, in case the little green dragon took the opportunity to escape or was intercepted by someone else.
In just a few minutes, she came running back from the hillside with a long tree branch in her hand.
She squatted down in front of the crevice in the rock, holding a tree branch, and focused intently on manipulating it, trying to hook the little green dragons with the tip of the branch.
Soon, the first little green dragon was successfully lured up.
Chen Zhiyao's face showed joy, but she did not dare to relax her hands in the slightest. She steadily controlled the branch and slowly moved it out of the crevice.
Then, the second, the third... one after another, little green dragons were cleverly hooked out of the cracks in the rocks by Chen Zhiyao.
At first, everyone saw five small green dragons, but unexpectedly, she rummaged around in the crevices at the bottom of the rocks and hooked out another small green dragon weighing about half a pound.
They caught six large lobsters in one go, and the group laughed out loud with joy.
As the azure sea slowly receded, Nian gripped the bucket tightly in his hand, his eyes fixed intently on the surrounding reefs.
Octopuses hiding under rocks, beautiful whelks dressed in colorful clothes, fist-sized horseshoe snails, thumb-thick large prawns, and large crabs with their claws outstretched...
As the sun slowly climbed above the sea, everyone's buckets were gradually filled with all sorts of delicious seafood.
Chen Zhiyao looked down and saw that several octopuses were unwilling to be trapped in the small bucket and were trying hard to escape.
They stretched out their long tentacles, trying to cling to the barrel wall, and then quietly climbed out of the barrel opening.
Chen Zhiyao watched them climb quietly, and when they were about to succeed, she mischievously stuffed them back into the bucket.
The seafood in the bucket was all freshly caught and very fresh.
The top few large shrimp were jumping around in the bucket, seemingly wanting to return to the embrace of the sea.
When Chen Zhiyao reached out to grab the octopus, one of them jumped right onto her face.
"Great energy! Perfect timing to make some boiled shrimp for lunch."
Upon hearing this, the previously lively shrimp immediately became much more docile.
"Splash splash splash..."
Seeing that the tide was about to come in, the group, carrying their full catch of fish and beaming with the joy of a bountiful harvest, walked back home chatting and laughing.
Just then, a moray eel quietly emerged from behind the rocks, its body twisting nimbly as it tried to swim towards the sea not far away.
Chen Zhiyao keenly noticed its movement and quickly gave chase.
When she returned, she had a small eel weighing over two pounds in her hand.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, with the sea breeze gently blowing, the group, carrying various kinds of seafood, happily prepared to go back and cook a seafood feast.
