Chapter 891 The predatory feast of seabirds (two chapters combined into one, 7400 words)(3/3)

It is also pickled with salt, but the canned herring is known to be the smelliest canned food. One smell will make you vomit for three days. 9 out of 10 people who have tasted it will vomit, and the remaining one is a Swede.

However, such notorious canned fish will still be produced in the future, and people will still buy it. Most of them are curious and want to see how smelly it is.

But until now, it is generally only suitable for feeding livestock, or it is simply thrown back into the sea if it takes up too much space.

"Dad, I guess there should be herrings on the bottom of the sea nearby. Let's try our luck here again. There should be fish attracted to this school of herrings."

Even this kind of worthless fish can easily reach the top of their food chain as long as there are schools of fish.

Ye Yaodong's target was not these herrings, but other fish species chasing predatory fish schools. He didn't know if there were any, so he could only try his luck.

"It's useless, isn't it? There aren't any good fish in this net. Most of them are herring. There's nothing good about other fish. Don't catch them all later. If you drag them for a few hours, they'll all be herrings.

, that would be a waste of time.”

He thought about it and felt it made sense. There was nothing good in the net just now. If we waste time dragging two nets here again, the sun will set and it is time to return, then the gain will not be worth the loss.

"Otherwise, I'll go into the water and take a look. Anyway, I haven't lowered the net right now. The fishing boat can stay still for a few minutes."

"That's okay, then be careful and don't go too deep."

"Well, we couldn't go too deep originally."

When Ye Yaodong was about to go into the water, he saw several seabirds swooping down to a sea surface, covering the water, and then passing lightly. In just a moment, he caught herrings one by one, and did not return empty-handed.

"Dad, drive the boat in that direction, and I'll launch from there."

Father Ye raised his eyes and didn't say much. He said yes and went to sail the boat.

As the fishing boat approached, both father and son discovered that the surrounding sea seemed to be attracting more and more seabirds.

Where there are seabirds gathering there must be schools of fish.

In turn, a school of fish can attract a bunch of seabirds, as well as fish higher up in its food chain.

Father Ye stopped the boat while maintaining a certain distance. A large bag of fish was scattered on the deck. Before they had time to sort and put it into baskets, it also attracted a large number of seabirds to swoop down.

He took a fishing net and temporarily covered it to prevent it from being eaten by these seabirds.

As Ye Yaodong slowly descended to the water, his father also brought two hand-thrown nets, intending to try his luck to see if he could catch some fish.

Ye Yaodong was stunned as soon as he entered the water.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the fishing boat approached, there were so many gannets under the water, and the swimming speed of these gannets was not slow at all, and they were even faster than the fish.

They tried to round up schools of fish at the bottom of the water. Unexpectedly, those fish schools were really surrounded by gannets and had no choice but to join in a group. They also panicked and swam to the middle of the fish school.

A large group of fish formed a cocoon-like shape right under his nose, and herrings swimming from a distance continued to fill the center, like moths flying into a flame, growing the cocoon in the middle.

The weather was good today, with clear skies. He could see clearly underwater. The distance was not that far. The key was that the herring schools that had been moving were driven to a standstill by the gannets. They could only huddle together, which was more convenient. He was in

Watch the battle underwater.

As the cocoons formed by these herrings continue to grow, they have no ability to resist and can only be slaughtered by seabirds.

Ye Yaodong couldn't see the scene on the sea when he was in the water, otherwise he would have seen a new fishing feast. More and more seabirds gathered on the sea, all vying to participate in this banquet.

He could also see some swooping sharp beaks and dripping bird feet underwater, but seagulls could only tread water and could not dive into the water like gannets.

The seagulls stretched their necks and fished desperately downwards, but although the cocoons wrapped by the herrings continued to grow, they were still nearly 1 meter away from the water.

This distance is not something that seabirds like seagulls, who can only tread water, can reach.

At this time, the gannets actually made an astonishing move. They collectively dived under the herring and drove the fish away from the bottom up.

So the huge herring cocoon had no choice but to move up a little bit and came to a position close to the sea.

During this period, he also saw the fishing nets thrown down by his father, but what was disappointing was that he clearly saw that the nets only contained herrings, not even gannets.

They are very flexible in the water, and they only move around the cocoon, and the fishing net is not spread to the middle.

There are seabirds both above and below the surface of the water. The giant herring cocoon is sandwiched between two groups of seabirds and can only be slaughtered at will.

A feeding frenzy was instantly staged, a feast of predators in which seabirds worked together.

If he hadn't run under the water, he wouldn't have known that these seabirds would cooperate and drive these herrings into everyone's mouth.

Ye Yaodong's eyes widened when he looked underwater.

Those gannets will float up after staying under the water for a while, and then other seabirds that can dive will come down.

He wonders if these seabirds also belong to the same village, and they can still be so united?

Seabirds were constantly swooping down from the sea, as if it were boiling, and every one of them was successful. Herrings from afar were being replenished in the water.

Father Ye didn't dare to sail the boat close. After all, Ye Yaodong was still underneath, and he was still carrying the pipe attached to the boat. He cast two nets but only caught herrings, so he stopped casting and planned to wait for Dongzi.

Come up and take a look at what's going on down there.

Ye Yaodong stayed for a while, and after feeling that there would be no other problems, he planned to go up to the surface, wait and see, and discuss it with his father.

There are no other fish down here, only herring and seabirds, and some of those seabirds are beneficial birds like seagulls. Among them, only gannets are relatively valuable, but there is no way to catch them specifically.

We can only go up and wait and see first. As long as the herring don't disappear so quickly, there should be other fish attracted to feed later.

I just don’t know if I can afford it or if it’s worth the wait.

After all, if they have this time, they can gain a lot by hauling one or two nets.

Just as he was swinging his flippers and wandering around before going up, he saw a group of long fish in the distance, rushing towards him like arrows.

This month, we will continue to keep a minimum of 7,000 words per day, compared with 6,000 per day before. In total, we can add 30,000 words per month, which is equivalent to ten additional chapters!

Isn’t it super awesome?

Apportioned to each day, you read more, and my pressure is relieved. Can I ask for a monthly ticket?

There is no double this month! Please give me a monthly pass! Please give me a monthly pass!
