Wu An sighed.
It doesn't look like it will work.
Previously, the intelligent sea turtle only allowed him to clean barnacles, and he thought he was special and could communicate with the sea turtle.
He's overthinking it.
The group of sea turtles approached the fishing boat, but once they reached it, they stopped and raised their heads, swaying back and forth on the surface of the water, as if they were communicating.
Immediately afterwards, one of the sea turtles swam up to Wu An and raised its right webbed foot as if to say hello.
Seeing that there were no barnacles on the turtle's shell, Wu An recognized it as the intelligent turtle and his face lit up with joy. He said, "It's you."
"Did you come to say hello to me?"
"We don't need to be so polite. If we meet at sea, we can just go about our own business."
"Let's hurry up and go. There are longline fishing spots here. Don't accidentally run into one."
Mai Hangyu also came over to take a look.
The other sea turtles remained still, simply floating on the surface of the sea, while the intelligent sea turtle began to swim.
Mai Hangyu said, "Brother, what you're saying is like talking to a brick wall."
Wu An remained silent, staring intently as the sea turtle swam to the longline fishing spot. His heart pounded with anxiety, but he had a feeling that the turtle seemed to understand what he was saying.
He silently hoped that the sea turtle truly possessed a spirit.
Otherwise, if a sea turtle gets caught on a longline fishing hook, it could cause serious trouble.
Then, under their watchful eyes, the sea turtle actually swam around the longline and returned, and then went to circle the group of sea turtles again.
Finally, he returned to Wu An.
"Brother, look."
"The turtles started moving, but they didn't get close to the longline fishing."
"Holy crap, that's amazing, absolutely amazing!"
"This turtle discovered longline fishing, and then told the turtle group that longline fishing was dangerous, so that the turtle group would avoid longline fishing."
Mai Hangyu looked shocked and shouted excitedly.
Ah Qing also shouted, "Look!"
Barnacles.
“These sea turtles all have barnacles on their bodies.”
Mai Hangyu turned to look at Wu An and said with a strange expression, "Wow, they think we're some kind of marine hairdresser, coming to get us haircuts."
Wu An was both amused and exasperated.
Mai Hangyu had casually mentioned it last time, and unexpectedly, he was right.
Needless to say.
This group of sea turtles was brought here by this intelligent sea turtle; surely they weren't there to show him their large sea turtle family?
Wu An asked, "You're right, so should we help you?"
Mai Hangyu and A Qing exchanged a glance and said in unison, "We'll listen to our brother."
Wu An laughed: "Then you guys start by reeling in the longline."
"I'll remove the barnacles from these sea turtles first."
"Put away the longline fishing rod, then you can come and help me."
The two nodded and quickly reeled in the line.
Using a net, Wu An first scooped up a relatively small sea turtle. The turtle didn't struggle. Wu An found some tools and quickly removed the barnacles, then threw the turtle back into the sea.
Sea turtles surfaced and happily circled in the water.
Wu An found it very amusing.
Doing good deeds truly brings people a sense of joy from the bottom of their hearts.
After he finished preparing the three sea turtles, Ah Qing put away the last hook and shouted, "Brother, the last hook is empty."
Wu An turned his head to look.
Um?
That's it?
Looking at the time, it was already 3 p.m. He had been busy for exactly 2 hours, much faster than last time, and he really didn't feel the passage of time.
That's normal.
With fish catching one after another, I was so focused on pulling the line that I couldn't pay attention to anything else. It's the same principle as fishing; when you're catching fish one after another, time always seems to fly by.
As Wu An cleaned the barnacles off the sea turtle, he asked, "How was the harvest?"
Ah Qing said happily, "It's definitely better than last time."
Mai Hangyu walked over and said, "Brother, leave this to me."
result.
As soon as Wu An walked away, the quiet sea turtle began to flutter.
Mai Hangyu couldn't be suppressed.
Wu An quickly reassured him, "Listen, this is also a Tony teacher."
Gradually.
The sea turtle calmed down.
Everyone was stunned.
Old Mai came over to take a look and was also amazed, so he couldn't help but ask, "Why do they listen to you?"
Wu An was bewildered: "How would I know?"
“As you can see, I did nothing. They are sentient beings who can hear human speech.”
"Alright."
"Don't just stand there, hurry up and clean up these sea turtles, we still need to put away the traps."
Ah Qing and Lao Mai also joined in.
Mai Hangyu, holding his tools, chuckled and said, "Hello, I'm Tony, number 3. It's a pleasure to serve you. What hairstyle would you like?"
"Oh, you're bald, right?"
"If you don't say anything, then I'll take that as your agreement."
"OK."
Mai Hangyu got to work quickly and efficiently.
Everyone burst into laughter.
There were a dozen or so sea turtles in total. It didn't take too long. After throwing the last processed sea turtle back, Old Mai started the fishing boat.
The sea turtles lingered for a while, disappearing into the sea as Wu An and his companions waved goodbye.
Ah Qing and Mai Hangyu smoked cigarettes and said cheerfully, "Brother, there are quite a few sea turtles in the ocean. If word gets out, we might get approached by sea turtles trying to pick our barnacles when we go out to sea in the future."
Wu An had considered it, and said, "If they come to us, then we'll help them."
"We make so much money off the sea, consider this the money they gave us for the haircut."
Mai Hangyu said, "Haha, I think it's a good idea."
"This is really interesting."
"With the sea turtle's blessing, everything will definitely go smoothly."
Old Mai was also amazed. He had lived for decades and this was the first time he had ever seen something so bizarre. He wouldn't have believed it if others hadn't told him about it.
He said, "I've heard that encountering a sea turtle at sea is a sign of good luck."
Aqing didn't say anything.
He doesn't care as long as it doesn't interfere with making money.
Retrieving the traps is still hard work.
Because each row of traps had good traps, which proved the saying that small green dragons live in groups. The first row of traps was full of small green dragons.
"Brother, there are fifteen little green dragons in the first row of cages." Ah Qing was so happy he almost jumped up: "That's more than all the little green dragons in all the cages we had last time."
Wu An nodded, his face also beaming with joy. The little green dragons that had entered the cage were all quite large, so he was sure he could make a small profit.
Mai Hangyu said, "Let me give it a try. I'll be able to get lucky today when I'm cleaning barnacles off a sea turtle."
Wu An and A Qing had no objections.
Pulling up the second row, the harvest was also good; the seafood that was poured out was piled up, and at a glance there were at least seven or eight small lobsters.
"What a bumper harvest!"
Wu An was also secretly surprised. He hadn't received much luck yesterday, but the results were better than the previous time when he received more luck.
This shows that the quality of a harvest depends not only on luck, but also on the location.
Perhaps, the rescue of the sea turtle was also aided by some unseen force of fate.
