Chapter 235 1 vs 3 Sharks
- We are dedicated to providing the most comfortable reading experience.
Zhou Miao pressed down hard on the harpoon, and the blue-spotted snapper only struggled violently for a dozen seconds before it ran out of strength.
Holding his breath, he quickly led the fish back to the surface, took a breath, and then picked up a dagger to bleed the fish before hanging it on a live fish hook.
Today's harvest was great; this blue-spotted snapper, weighing over 20 kilograms, is worth 2,000 yuan.
It's a pity they're from fishing and hunting; if they could be caught and kept ashore, the price would double.
However, this sea voyage is scheduled for a week, so we'll mostly eat the seafood we catch today ourselves.
Such a large blue-spotted snapper is rare, but that doesn't mean high-value fish will be scarce once they reach the continental shelf.
Next, Zhou Miao caught three more groupers hiding and sleeping on the coral reef, but didn't find anything else of value.
Since it was still early, he continued searching for fish in different locations.
However, after swimming less than seven or eight meters, countless dark shadows suddenly appeared in front of him.
In just two blinks, the dense black shadows were already close by; it turned out to be a large group of Kang's mackerel.
These mackerel were all over half a meter long, and their numbers were extremely exaggerated.
After colliding head-on with Zhou Miao, it immediately put on a tornado-like performance, whistling past him.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a sight, and he was completely stunned.
However, less than half a minute later, Zhou Miao suddenly felt a jolt.
He spotted several sharks over a meter long swimming rapidly, preying on the mackerel.
Without any hesitation, he quickly swam towards the Flying Swallow, while simultaneously drawing a harpoon from his back and holding it in his hand for defense.
However, although the fish on the live fish trap had been bled, they still emitted a slight bloody smell.
Three sharks, highly sensitive to the smell, immediately charged directly at Zhou Miao.
Their goal is clear: to catch the few fish caught in the live fish trap.
"Damn it, how dare you snatch food from a tiger's mouth?"
Zhou Miao quickly surfaced for air, then returned to the water.
At this moment, the shark was already in front of him, and it opened its mouth to bite the fish that was on his live fish trap.
Zhou Miao didn't know what kind of shark it was. When it opened its mouth, all he could see were two rows of fine teeth that looked very sharp.
The shark was about 1.5 meters long, so he wasn't afraid.
When the first shark approached, he thrust his harpoon straight at it.
Press the eject button, and the spear instantly pierces through the shark's mouth and exits through its forehead.
One shark was successfully dealt with, but two more remain.
But Zhou Miao couldn't lift the spear at once, so he had to loosen his grip and pull out his dagger.
Two sharks were already in front of him, and without thinking, he lunged at their heads.
The movements were swift and ruthless, delivering three slashes in an instant.
The shark in front, feeling the pain, immediately turned and left. The shark behind, unaware of what was happening, was also stabbed three times before realizing it was leaving.
Seeing Zhou Miao being chased by a shark not far away, Yu Muzhou, who wanted to come over to help, froze on the spot, his mind blank, only able to think, "Holy crap~ this young man!"
One shark was already dead, but the dagger was too short and didn't seem to have dealt a fatal blow to the other two sharks, who were still lingering nearby.
Seeing this, Zhou Miao could only swing his legs and slowly back away, while grabbing the rope of the fish spear tied to his arm, trying to pull out the fish spear.
Unfortunately, the road was too blocked, so in the end, they could only take the dead shark back with them.
Yu Muzhou realized what was happening and rushed over to help.
He first grabbed the shark, pulled out the harpoon, and then casually threw the shark down to attract the attention of other sharks.
But he didn't notice the slight frustration in Zhou Miao's eyes as he looked at him. It was a trophy, after all, and he was just going to throw it away like that?
These sharks aren't very strong fighters; if they come any closer, he's confident he can take down two more.
But since it was already thrown away, Zhou Miao couldn't say anything, so he quickly followed Yu Muzhou back to the ship.
Currently, they are only small sharks, so it is relatively safe. However, if the mackerel school attracts more predators, especially large sharks, the situation could change.
If they remain in the water, they are being irresponsible with their own lives.
Fortunately, the fishing boat wasn't far away, and they were able to return to the ship successfully in no time.
Climbing onto the boat and removing his snorkel and mask, Yu Muzhou looked at Zhou Miao with a strange expression: "Ah Miao, I didn't expect you to be such a ruthless person!"
At this moment, the three women who saw them return were curiously walking out of the living room, wanting to see what they had gained. Unexpectedly, they heard Yu Muzhou say this as soon as they came out.
"How ruthless?" Luo Qianqian asked curiously.
"It's nothing. If Brother Zhou hadn't stopped me, I probably would have killed three sharks just now."
Zhou Miao calmly handed the net, the live fish bag, and the fish on it to Lu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Muzhou gave this guy a thumbs up, ready to give him full marks.
But when Lu Xiaoxiao and Luo Qianqian heard about the shark, they immediately forgot about his harvest and looked him up and down with concern.
"Brother Miao, are you alright?"
"Are you injured anywhere?"
"You shouldn't go into the water anymore. What if you encounter a great white shark or something?" Luo Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief when she knew he was alright, then frowned and said.
She usually likes to contradict Zhou Miao with her words, but there are no problems in their relationship. When something really happens, her concern and worry are no less than Lu Xiaoxiao's.
"Qianqian is right, Brother Amiao, let's just go fishing from now on." Lu Xiaoxiao agreed.
Looking at Zhou Miao, who was being cared for by the two women, Yu Muzhou shook the water droplets off his head, a hint of envy in his eyes.
Everyone longs to be cared for and appreciated, and he was no exception.
However, when he turned his head, he found Zhang Shuman looking at him with concern, and his heart warmed instantly.
Although it was an arranged marriage, this woman seemed to have gradually adapted to her new identity.
Yu Muzhou smiled at her and then handed her his catch.
"Ah Miao and I got some special ingredients today. We have two big snails for grilling. The other three of you can handle them tonight. I'm going to take a shower now."
Zhou Miao felt a bit cold from the sea breeze, so she quickly went to her room to take a shower and change her clothes.
The three women looked curiously at the special ingredients left behind by the two of them.
Then they discovered a large spotted dragon, a large conch shell, and a starling.
"This isn't special, this is outrageous!" Luo Qianqian was stunned, never expecting the two of them to be so bold as to prepare such things for eating.
Lu Xiaoxiao didn't react much, but instead pondered how many ways to cook this fish.
Zhang Shuman's reaction was equally calm. She was a seasoned person and knew a lot about the behind-the-scenes matters.
Upon seeing these ingredients, she instantly had an idea.
"Since we're going to make grilled sea snails, let's prepare a barbecue and hot pot for dinner!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoxiao said, "The fish head and neck can be grilled over charcoal, and let's steam a piece of the fish meat!"
"Lobsters are so big, they can be prepared in several ways, but hot pot and charcoal grilling would be such a waste of these ingredients."
"You guys do the simple things, I'll take care of the complicated ones."
Lu Xiaoxiao has always been the type to quietly make sacrifices. Knowing that Zhou Miao likes to eat delicious food, she has been researching various dishes.
