Chen Zhiyao turned around at the rocky beach, took out two new nets, and quickly filled all the golden snails with them.
After putting the two heavy bags of small snails away, she pulled the cart and prepared to continue walking.
My gaze fell on the bucket of water on the cart at that moment.
Chen Zhiyao felt that something was wrong with the fish in the bucket, so she looked inside again.
There were clearly several octopuses in the bucket, but now there aren't any left.
"Where did it go? Did it escape from prison?"
Just then, I heard a sound above my head. When I looked up, I saw many seagulls circling in the air.
Several of them had octopuses in their claws, finally solving the case.
"My octopus!!"
Chen Zhiyao never expected that her home would be raided by these seagulls, and she wished she could shoot them all down and roast them.
Seeing that she had realized what was happening, the seagulls quickly ran away with the octopus they had just stolen.
Its broad wings flapped frantically, leaving several gray feathers of the seagull in the air.
Seeing the bird feathers and seagull droppings all over the ground, Chen Zhiyao became even angrier.
To prevent another theft, she simply covered the bucket with the fishing net, making sure it was completely covered.
"Let's see how you manage to steal things now."
Seeing that the flock of seagulls had long since disappeared, she had no choice but to continue her beachcombing trip with her little cart.
Fortunately, there was plenty of seafood on the beach, which somewhat soothed Chen Zhiyao's wounded heart.
Yellow clams +6
Cat's Eye Snail +5
Octopus +2
Xi Shi Bei +3
Sea bean sprouts +3
Mantis shrimp +4
...
Chen Zhiyao had just dug a clam out of a small bulge when she looked up and saw a huge conch shell not far away.
"This conch is huge! It feels bigger than my face."
She jogged over and, upon closer inspection, realized it was a spotted snail.
Chen Zhiyao grinned and happily picked up the giant conch shell.
However, as soon as I picked it up, I felt something was wrong. This spotted conch shell was very light, and there was only a shell left.
"What a pity, such a big conch shell."
Seeing that the shell of this spotted conch was quite pretty, Chen Zhiyao casually put it into the bucket, intending to take it home as a keepsake.
By this time, she had reached the point where the beach met the waves.
"Splash..."
After the tide receded, three octopuses and a few small shrimp were left on the beach in front of us.
Just then, several seagulls suddenly swooped down from the sky.
Just as the seagulls were about to catch the octopus, Chen Zhiyao immediately picked up a net, pulled all the octopuses together, and then covered them.
Several seagulls stared blankly at the empty beach beneath their claws.
Where's my lunch?
Before the seagulls could react, Chen Zhiyao triumphantly picked up all the octopuses.
"Hahaha, these are all mine."
Now, the seagull, who had been looking completely bewildered, finally realized what was happening.
The seagulls, having just had their lunch stolen and now mocked by Chen Zhiyao, were all in a frenzy.
Outraged, it even flew towards her, wanting to stab her a few times.
Chen Zhiyao ran a few steps after being chased by the seagulls before remembering that she still had a weapon in her hand.
She immediately turned around, wielding the net with great force, and in a few swift movements, she chased away all the enraged seagulls.
Watching the birds flee in disarray, Chen Zhiyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her mood improved considerably.
To prevent those wretched seagulls from returning to steal her home again, she kept the net firmly over the bucket.
As the tide was receding to the very back, Grandpa Chen waved to the group.
There was plenty of seafood on the beach, but not much of it was valuable. The group soon arrived at the rocky beach not far away.
Chen Zhiyao couldn't help but marvel once again at how beautiful the seawater was on Wanyu Island.
The originally unremarkable rocky beach, combined with the crystal-clear blue water, has an almost ethereal feel to it.
Suddenly, it seemed like something walked past in front of me.
As soon as she looked down, Chen Zhiyao saw a blue crab scurrying sideways past her.
As a conspicuous creature, the orchid crab is always very eye-catching, almost impossible to spot at a glance.
But once we got here, the blue color on my clothes almost blended into the seawater.
At this point, even the most eye-catching bag becomes less noticeable.
"These orchid crabs look much more normal against the backdrop of the seawater here."
But since it was already there, this little orchid was destined to be caught.
Orchid Crab +1
The rocky beach in front of Chen Zhiyao consisted mostly of small to medium-sized rocks.
And under these rocks, there are basically all kinds of delicious seafood.
Turn over a long, narrow stone at your feet, and underneath it hides a small squid, about two or three ounces in size.
As soon as the rock was lifted, the little guy quickly swam to the side.
However, it was too late; a fishing net blocked its path.
The little guy didn't have time to turn around and rushed straight into the net, walking right into the trap.
Cuttlefish +1
Feeling quite pleased with herself, Chen Zhiyao took a few more steps forward and saw a slightly larger rock covered with many small oysters.
However, all the meat from these small oysters was gone, leaving only a pile of empty shells. The culprit was a few plump, yellow snails next to them.
Spicy snails feed on oysters, and they can generally be found wherever oysters grow.
Besides the ones at the very top, there's also a spicy snail nest in the crevice of the rock.
This nest of snails wasn't large, but they were quite big, almost as big as smaller whelks, and they were large yellow-mouthed snails.
A catty this size could easily sell for over 40 yuan per kilogram, making 100 yuan a piece of cake.
After walking for a while, Chen Zhiyao found a rather large sesame eel in the crevice between two rocks.
This creature somehow managed to hide its head and tail in a crevice in the rocks, leaving only a small gray bulge visible. Without X-ray glasses, most people wouldn't be able to tell it was actually a moray eel.
This guy hid his head inside the cave, which is a bit like burying his head in the sand.
Even with Chen Zhiyao right in front of it, it remained completely unaware.
With the all-purpose tongs in his hand, he quickly pulled out the three-pound eel.
Conger eel +1
After taking a few steps forward, Chen Zhiyao suddenly laughed. It turned out that there were two bread crabs in front of her that were bigger than her palm.
The two bread crabs were huddled together, and when they saw someone approaching, they immediately adopted an aggressive posture.
Seeing that this person was oblivious to her impending doom and continued to approach, the two bread crabs side by side sprayed water at her together.
Unfortunately, Chen Zhiyao was not afraid at all; she even reached out and washed her hands with the water jet.
The two bread crabs felt insulted, and the jets of water they sprayed became noticeably larger and more powerful.
However, it was to no avail; Chen Zhiyao quickly picked it up and tossed it into the net.
Bread Crab +2
She searched through rocks of all sizes and found many good things along the way.
Octopus +4
Nine-shrimp + 2
Black sea bream +1
Cuttlefish +2
Mantis shrimp +6
Flower snail +7
Abalone +3
...
As she walked, she was pleasantly surprised to find a red crab.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a red brown crab. Red brown crabs are extremely rare, as most brown crabs are yellowish-brown.
I must say, this red bread crab looks remarkably like it's already cooked.
