Chapter 189: Entering the ocean for the first time
Well, even after growing, there is probably nothing comparable.
Compared to the fishing ground, the coral reef is really beautiful. Although this is Jiang Hai's second time entering the sea, the first time he entered the sea. He was scared away by the sharks swimming from afar. This time he had a bodyguard beside him, and he also knew that the sharks moving near the coral reef were not very aggressive, so he was going to try it.
"Follow me!" After patting Dasha's head, Jiang Hai took the lead and swam towards the coral reef in the distance.
When Dasha saw Jiang Hai's actions, she swam over immediately, looking around vigilantly while swimming.
Although Jiang Hai could ignore the water pressure and breathe under the water, he could not swim like a fish, and could only swim like a human, so he naturally couldn't get faster. It seemed that the coral reef was very close, Jiang Hai swam for about ten minutes before he reached the periphery.
Speaking of corals, most people know, have seen them, and have some understanding of them. According to some knowledge channels, corals are actually made up of corpses of corals. This statement is correct, not right.
Corals are indeed made up of corpses of corals, but they are not just corpses, but also living corals.
This kind of creature is a very strange creature. When the larvae of coral polyps is born, it is directly fixed on the pile of lime-like bones accumulated by the corpses of predecessors, that is, other corals. The corals we see are actually a shell secreted by coral polyps, so it is indeed not easy to form such things.
A long time ago, humans could only rely on the weather for corals. This is why corals and the like in ancient times were so expensive, but in recent years, artificially farmed corals have actually achieved considerable achievements.
The main enemy of corals is polluted water sources. As long as the water sources are kept clean, the growth rate of corals is not actually slow.
In some pure sea areas in South America and Australia, many people have completed the initial breeding of corals. In fact, they are just to get a few pieces of corals and fix them on an iron net and place them where the currents pass. In this way, corals will grow more every few weeks or even months, and when they grow for more than a year, they can be sold as finished products.
It is precisely because of this that, except for a few precious red corals, other colors of corals, especially white and gray, are very cheap now.
After all, corals are tropical things. Although there are many in Jianghai’s fishing grounds, there are obviously not many treasures.
There are a large area of corals, but they really grow into trees, but there are almost none. Most of them are more than ten or twenty centimeters high. They grow on some reefs. Most of them are white, gray, black, blue, and some yellow, pink, and bright red. This is also the only valuable coral species, but the number is really not large. Jiang Hai glanced over at a glance and there were only a dozen plants, and they were all relatively small, only about ten centimeters, and there was no value for picking.
Compared to corals, Jiang Hai did not know much about things. He only knew that these corals were not picked casually.
The colors of corals are different, not only the prices are different, but also the differences themselves. For example, black and gray corals have very low hardness and they do not know how to mine them. Compared with corals, the seafood that Jiang Hai knows best.
As soon as they swam over, Jiang Hai saw several sea snakes in the distance, but these sea snakes did not dare to come over to trouble Jiang Hai. They were not afraid of Jiang Hai, but the sand tiger shark behind Jiang Hai. These days, Dasha has become a domineering here.
This area is all its territory, but there are no fish or creatures that dare to cause rashness in front of him.
Jiang Hai swam by with Dasha. Although he had some meanings of foxes pretending to be powerful, he was indeed retreating.
Even Jiang Hai looked at a huge moray eel. After seeing Dasha, he took the initiative to retract into the hole. The bodyguard was not hired in vain.
With waves, Jiang Hai swam to the top of these coral reefs, looked down and saw that there were also many sea cucumbers lying on the sand on the ground and on the reefs. These sea cucumbers were almost twenty centimeters long, and they were all small. In addition to these sea cucumbers, there were many shellfish on the reefs, and even fist-sized abalones, all of which were many.
Abalone is very valuable in China, but it is not very valuable abroad. For example, in Australia, there are many abalones in many parks and lakes, which are about the same size as these, but they are not caught.
Of course, the locals are not very interested in this thing, but Jiang Hai is quite interested in these things.
There are also many big lobsters next to the abalone and in the open space of the coral reef. These Boston lobsters are even more than twice as big as the one he has eaten in China. Perhaps because they felt Jiang Hai’s attention, the lobsters also stopped, raised their big tongs, and aimed at Jiang Hai and Dasha. In addition to lobsters, abalones, sea cucumbers, shrimps at the seabed and various fish, there are countless here.
There are countless clown fish, hiking around in the sea anemones growing on the reef, and they are not easy to play, but Jiang Hai dare not provoke these guys. Everyone knows that there are three most unprovoked creatures in the water, sea snakes, jellyfish, and sea anemones.
Because these three things are poisonous, fortunately, Jiang Hai has recently learned a lot of knowledge about the ocean, and knows that some things cannot be touched casually, so as long as he can see them, he will avoid them from afar.
The seabed is much more fun than the coast. Before he knew it, Jiang Hai also played in the coral reef under the water for more than an hour.
In more than an hour, he learned a lot from books and TV.
This is just the most submersible sea area. If you dive to 100 meters or 200 meters, Jiang Hai doesn't know what it will be like.
When humans are invincible, they are more afraid of the unknown, just like Jiang Hai. Before he was about to reach level 3, he said that he would not go into the sea, but now this unexpected fall into the water has gradually made his mind liven up.
Maybe when you reach level 2, you can go into the sea!
Seeing that the sun was about to set, the sea surface had turned red, Jiang Hai also reacted. It was time to leave at this time, but how could he return empty-handed when entering Baoshan?
When he caught fish, Jiang Hai was not as fast as he swam, so he gave up! However, he had absolutely no reason to let go of those lobsters, sea cucumbers, and abalones. (To be continued.)
