The terrible devil''s wave just now originated from the deep sea several thousand meters below. In addition to stirring more than 10 billion tons of sea water, it also brought some hapless deep-sea fish to the surface.

These deep-sea fish are a real gift.

From this point of view, the devil''s wave is more like the sea''s test of human beings. If you resist the devil''s wave, you will get gifts. If you can''t resist it, go and accompany the deep-sea fish.

The first person to discover deep-sea fish was a sailor.

This guy was almost scared to pee in the devil''s wave incident. As soon as the sea calmed down, he couldn''t wait to go to the "toilet" and planned to pee.

Of course, the "toilet" on a foreign sailing ship can not be as well equipped as the earth ship, with a separate compartment and a toilet installed inside.

The toilet of Haichao is appalling. It is actually a thick plank sticking out from the wall of the ship under the second deck.

A big hole is pulled out of the board, which is the special squatting position of "Shangda". The fresh excrement from the "stove" will fall directly into the sea water below from the hole.

for woodlouse, the ocean is the most natural toilet, covering more than half of the planet''s super toilet.

In order to prevent the tragedy of "falling into the toilet" when the wind is high and the waves are strong, a fence is installed around the board.

The sailor''s hobby is quite unique. He prefers to watch the scene of "water column falling from high altitude", so he "startles" and stares at the sea carefully.

As a result, this guy suddenly found that there was a shadow flashing under the water.

Judging from the shape and moving posture of the shadow, he immediately realized that it was a sea fish, and the swimming speed was very slow. Judging from the length of the shadow, its body length was no more than 2 meters, just a medium-sized sea fish.

But the question is, in the storm season, how can there be sea fish in the sea? Don''t they all hide under calm water? Why don''t you run when you see a sailboat?

"Brother Yajing" also noticed that there seemed to be more than one fish underwater, and within a minute, he saw several shadows.

Fish!

It must be a school of fish.

The discovery was immediately reported to the chief water officer and to chief officer Ludford.

So Ludford called on some sailors, took out a medium-sized fishing net and tried to catch the fish.

Unlike the previous white tailed sparrow, Haichao, as a multi-functional sailing vessel, is equipped with almost everything, including two steel cages.

When the magic motive pulled up the fishing net, everyone was surprised to see the fish in the net.

There are only six or seven fish in the net. From the appearance, they are the same kind of fish. They look strange. Even an old sailor with 20 years of fisherman experience has never seen this kind of fish.

these woodlouse, though not very knowledgeable, can guess that this is mostly the deep sea fish group, and it must be related to the devil''s wave.

These sea fish are about 1.5 meters long, very flat, less than 30 cm wide, and very strange in shape. From the side, they look a bit like axe. "Axe fish" should be a more appropriate name.

Their scales are white, slightly transparent, and their skin can be seen faintly. Their heads account for a large proportion of their bodies, almost more than 13. A pair of fish eyes are also surprisingly large, almost as big as two fists, and they also bulge up.

The mouth of the fish keeps open all the time. It seems that it can''t be closed. The sharp teeth are clearly visible. It looks ferocious and ugly. From the position of the mandibular joint, the opening angle of their mouth may exceed 120 degrees, which is enough to be called "bloody mouth".

From the habit of gathering in groups, it is obvious that this is a group of fierce predatory deep-sea fish, which are used to collective hunting.

In addition, the devil''s wave must not only carry these unfortunate fish, but also shallow water fish. Why is it that only Hatchet Fish is caught in the fishing net?

This is also related to the body structure of deep-sea fish.

They live in the deep sea area all the year round, where the water pressure is very huge. According to the mentally retarded algorithm of 10 meters per atmosphere, for example, 3000 meters deep underwater, the water pressure is equivalent to 300 atmospheres.

In order to adapt to this terrible pressure, deep-sea fish embarked on a unique evolutionary path.

This road can be described in one word: to overcome hardness with softness!

Their bones are generally thin and soft, they are easy to bend, their muscle fibers are finer, and even their skin is very thin. In other words, they are very flexible.

As a result, the great pressure exerted by the sea on the fish is transferred to the body.

To be precise, the seawater transferred into the body is used to fight the high-pressure seawater.

But it also brings a side effect, that is, it can only endure high pressure, but not low pressure, unless it is some powerful alien species, such as deep-sea fish strengthened by magic power.

But Hatchet Fish are not in this list. They are predators. Yes, but they are just ordinary fish.

When the Hatchet Fish unfortunately got on the "deep-sea elevator", their life entered the countdown. The sharp reduction of external pressure broke the balance of internal and external pressure, and made them suffer serious internal injury instantly.Therefore, after the devil''s wave subsided, the "wrong elevator" shallow water fish immediately dived into the water and slipped away, while the hatchet fish almost belched farts and couldn''t walk.

Then, the news of "discovery of deep sea fish" caused a sensation to the whole ship.

Elon immediately asked Ludford to organize large-scale fishing. Before leaving this area for boot Island, he caught as many deep-sea fish as possible.

Because no one knows how long the coming storm will last. Before the storm stops, Haichao can only stay on boot island and prepare more fresh food.

Even if there is no shortage of food on board, almost all of them are pickled and sun dried. No one wants to eat them every day. What''s more, they are also reserved materials transported to Midway Island. If they can''t be consumed, they should not be consumed as much as possible.

The deck of Haichao soon became very lively. Almost all the sailors and island protectors crowded on the deck to watch this special salvage activity with great interest.

even on the earth with navigation technology, there are few people who have behoove to see deep-sea creatures, let alone woodlouse. So, of course, all those who are free come to watch.

Because most of the deep-sea fish are on the verge of death, or have died, the fishing process is very relaxed and pleasant, where the shadow is found, the net is enough.

The fishing activity lasted less than an hour, and the harvest was not very rich. Less than 1000 sea fish were caught, and the total weight was less than 80 tons. Most of them were Hatchet Fish, and there were several other kinds of fish, which were generally ugly.

This is also another typical feature of deep-sea fish: anyway, the black lacquer of Temo is invisible, so you don''t have to care about the image.

This disappointed everyone, but Renault thought it was normal.

Because the deep sea is not as some people imagine, there are endless schools of fish, all kinds of small fish, big fish, giant fish.

On the contrary, the deep sea is very barren, and the sea fish living here are all fish.

The root cause is sunshine.

In the ocean, sunlight is the source of almost all energy. Phytoplankton transform inorganic matter into organic matter through photosynthesis, which is the first layer of the food chain.

But in the deep-sea area, to be exact, the deep-sea "no light belt" below, the sun can not penetrate, darkness is the eternal theme.

On earth, the initial depth of the lightless zone is 1000 meters. In the alien world, although the sun is a little stronger, the depth will not be much different.

Without sunlight, there would be no phytoplankton, which means there would be no enough food. Naturally, the fish living here are far less than the rich surface of the ocean.

What do deep-sea fish mainly eat?

The answer is that the food debris or other fish debris that fall from the upper water, that is, they are a group of garbage collectors.

But just relying on such a little rubbish, we can''t eat well and we can''t have enough. What should we do?

For this problem, the normal solution lies in the four words of "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure".

Let''s start with open source.

What is open source? That is to go to other places to get more food, such as swimming hundreds of kilometers up. Beggars know that they can''t get food here, so they should go to another place.

Unfortunately, however, deep-sea fish refuse to do so, not because of their high self-esteem, but because - very dangerous.

MMP, it''s not that labor and capital don''t want to swim up, they will explode in situ as soon as they go up!

Even if it''s bearable, it''s true that there are more food in the upper class, but there are also more predators. Maybe they''ll take out.

Of course, there are monsters created by demons in the alien world, which are not included in this discussion.

(there is also a special kind of powerful fish on the earth, such as deep-sea cod, which can dive as deep as nearly 3000 meters and float to the surface)

since open source is not good, we have to save money.

How to cut expenditure?

It''s just to save money. No, save energy. We don''t want any useless organs.

It''s said that there''s a swim bladder in the shallow water. It''s full of gas. We all depend on whoring. We don''t need it. Cut it!

The pressure of life in deep sea is too great. The swim bladder wastes energy. It''s easy to have a flat tire. No, it''s easy to have a flat bladder.

It''s not enough just to cut the kidney. Energy can save money.

Muscle is a big energy consumer, lying still can consume energy, but can''t do without, really make "fish" tangled, then less point.

Fat, we also No, it''s too cold in the deep sea. If you can''t wear a down jacket, you need more fat.

Just open your mouth all the time. It''s hard to turn the switch on and off. You have to open it wider so that you can pick up more rubbish wherever you swim.

However, despite all the efforts, it is inevitable to go hungry every day.

But everything has its advantages and disadvantages.

Didn''t that one say that if you don''t have enough to eat and are hungry, it will increase your life expectancy and reduce your disease. So, this is not called starvation, it''s called cultivating immortals, you know?Don''t laugh. Many of the problems are caused by eating too much. Do you understand?

In addition, it''s true that we don''t have enough to eat, but there are fewer predators.

All of us who cultivate immortals feel that life is hard. There are few fish willing to cultivate immortals, so there are no more predators.

What does it mean that the land is wide, the fish are few and the enemy is few?

High security!

It is precisely because the deep sea is hard to get rid of. Although the area of devil''s wave is surprisingly large, there are not many deep-sea fish in fact.

After catching enough fish, Elon ordered the ship to set sail again.
