Chapter 46 Sea Centipede
Xiao Xiao patted himself on the forehead, "Fuck...Are we stupid? Isn't it good to just dump the goods in the barrel onto the boat? It can still be freed to continue loading!"
Ah Zheng also suddenly realized, "That's right? Just dump it on the boat and put everyone in a corner separately. When we go back, we'll pack it in a sack."
"Damn, pig brains... all of them have been sitting for so long, just watching Dongzi digging by himself."
"Walk around, go pick it up again, the boat fee and fuel fee are too expensive, you can't come here for nothing!"
When they walked back and told Fatty and Chen Wei, the two of them came to their senses, and hurriedly dumped all the goods in the barrel onto the boat, freeing up to continue loading.
Ye Yaodong looked at them speechlessly. Anyway, he just filled two sacks full. As long as they are not washed, they should be stored in a cool place for two or three days.
If it weren't for the need to manage the workers' food and drink, he wouldn't have picked up so much. After all, there is no refrigerator, and if he picks up too much, it will stink if he can't finish it. The ones he picked up so far are enough.
After the sack of spats was full, it was his turn to sit and rest and watch them work.
Because no one is involved in the isolated island, the shellfish adsorbed on the reef are still very rich. It is impossible for him to pry all the things back by himself. They still have a lot of things to pick up when they go back.
After sunbathing for a while and eating two corns brought out, he saw that most of the surrounding reefs were exposed as the tide had receded, so he picked up the big bamboo basket and the tongs, and shouted at the people bent over the reef: " Comrades, the tide has receded, I'm going to Taobao, you continue to dig yours!"
"MD, it's too late!"
"I'll dig for a while, and if there are any good ones, you can yell and I'll go down again."
"Okay, then I'll tell you guys after I've finished scouring the big stuff." Ye Yaodong laughed and rolled up his trousers and started to search in the shallow water area.
"Grass, don't dig, I'll go down and take a look around too." Ah Zheng jumped down with a half-full bucket, and didn't plan to go to the boat to pour it out, for fear of being slow again, anyway, these shellfish on the reef couldn't escape.
As soon as he jumped off, he heard Ye Yaodong's surprised voice.
"Damn ~ sea centipede!"
"What, where? Where is the sea centipede?"
"Is there a sea centipede?"
Everyone ran to Ye Yaodong's side in amazement, only to see that the exposed tidal flat was covered with dense sea centipedes.
Sea centipede, scientific name is lugworm, is a kind of reptile that grows in the shallow beaches of the southeast coast. Its most terrifying thing is that it looks like a centipede, but it is non-toxic and non-aggressive, and its legs are very short. Its food is mainly seaweed and seaweed, supplemented by small shrimp and small fish.
"Fuck, this is disgusting, isn't it? So much"
"I have goosebumps!"
A large sea centipede is wriggling. Anyone with trysophobia will be scared to death!
Fortunately, Ye Yaodong is not afraid of this thing, "This is a good thing, everyone, when you grab it, be quiet, so that it doesn't get into the tidal flat."
"Ah no no no, it's too disgusting, such a big piece makes my scalp numb, I don't want it."
"Me neither, I don't wear gloves."
"My eyes are going to be blind, I'd better go elsewhere and wash my eyes."
"It's really a bit disgusting. If you find it, you should go down and catch it yourself!"
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "One by one, eat, but want to eat, grab, but no one is willing to reach out."
"That's not what I said. The cooked appearance is too different from the live one, okay? It's so dense that I'm going to vomit. Anyway, you found it, and it's yours. Go down quickly! "After Ah Guang finished speaking, he quickly picked up the bucket and ran away.
He catches it and he catches it. It is better to eat it alone, but the bamboo basket in his hand is not suitable for holding sea centipedes. He quickly ran towards the boat.
He had to dump the sea goods in the bucket on the deck, free the bucket to fill it, and muttered as he walked: "Why are there so many sea centipedes crawling out, shouldn't they be in the cave under the tidal flat?"
"Who knows, maybe they will come out to mate in the first few days of junior high school."
Anyway, it’s good to catch it.
After freeing the bucket, he simply rinsed it in sea water, and then hurriedly ran towards the group of sea centipedes.
Disgusting is a little disgusting, but he is not unacceptable, anyway, he is still wearing gloves and has no direct contact.
He grabbed a handful, watched them struggle and squirm, felt disgusted, and quickly put them into the bucket. The sea centipedes around them seemed to be frightened, and burrowed into the soil one after another.
Ah, how can I let them run away?
Ye Yaodong speeded up and stayed on the surface. The sea centipedes who didn't react were caught, and those who were not caught got into the tidal flat.
Looking at the small holes on the surface of the tidal flat, he tried to dig it out, and when he felt it, he pulled it lightly. This requires patience and care.
Pick and pull for a while, stop for a while, let the sea centipede shrink, and then pick up, if the speed is too fast, it will be easy to break.
After touching a few holes, he was impatient and continued to touch. It was a waste of time, and there was half a bucket in the bucket, which weighed four to five catties.
He intends to go to the sea first to see if there are other good things, and then come back and grab them slowly when he has time, anyway, this thing is here.
After putting the bucket in the shade, he took the bamboo cage and tongs and ran towards the nearest A Guang.
"Is there any gain?"
"What do you think? I have already yelled about something good."
"That's right, it looks like everyone hasn't found anything big!"
He glanced at Ah Guang's bucket by the way, there were a few stone crabs and a few small miscellaneous fish, "You can either go to the reef to dig shellfish, maybe you will get more."
Ah Guang nodded seriously, "I think so too."
Ye Yaodong patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, and after looking at where the others were, he planned to walk a little further along the edge of the isolated island and reef.
The moment he caught the sea centipede, the tide receded a little.
Since we had a good start on the tidal flats today, he specifically went to places with tidal flats.
Some of the exposed places on this isolated island after low tide are small sandy beaches, and some are tidal flats.
Wandering around with the tongs, but saw a big blue crab covered in mud, laying motionless on the surface of the tidal flat basking in the sun?
The surface is well camouflaged, the shell is covered with mud, and if you don't look carefully, you almost skip it. Ye Yaodong pinches it with the tongs, and its big pincers immediately swing its teeth and claws.
"Hey, it's still a female, it's quite heavy, there should be red cream, it's estimated to be a catty and a half, it's okay, I almost missed it."
My luck is really good. I feel that there should be goods on the tidal flats, and there are indeed goods when I walk around.
