Chapter 102 Undersea Cemetery
The seabed here seems to be less deep than in front of it. Xiao Hai and the others are on the seabed. Even if they do not turn on the lights of the diving mecha, they can see the light, but it is quite dark.
Various marine creatures swam past them, and some sea fish with high curiosity even swam over to "say hello", which made many viewers say it was interesting.
"This coral reef seems to be dead." Zhou Jie said with some regret.
Coral reefs are like forests on land, an ecological system of the ocean, which can provide a place for living for a variety of marine organisms and play a very important role in marine ecology.
However, this ecological system is actually very fragile and easy to be destroyed, just like forests.
Just like the area in front of you, there is no life at all, it is dead silent, like a black and white photo.
"Yeah! He's dead." Xiao Hai nodded.
The two manipulated their respective diving mechas and swam forward.
Suddenly, Xiao Hai stopped: "Huh!"
"Brother Hai, what did you find?"
The audience who were watching the live broadcast room also cheered up.
Xiao Hai raised the right arm of the mecha and pointed to the seabed not far from his feet: "Look, what is that?"
"What a big shell!"
"It's a giant clam!"
"Is the giant clam? I heard that this thing is quite valuable too!"
"Like pearls, it is also one of the organic gems. Whether it is worth it depends on the specific quality. Not all giant clams can be called gems." Someone explained.
...
Xiao Hai and Zhou Jie have already arrived next to a shell that is more than one meter long.
"That's right! This is a giant clam." Xiao Hai gave the answer.
The giant clam began in the Han Dynasty. Because there were radial grooves on the surface of the shell, which looked like ancient ruts, it was called Chequ. Later generations added the word "Stone" next to the Chequ because it was as hard as stone.
The shell of the conch is very thick, the inner shell is white and shiny, and the outer shell is yellow-brown. The most essence of the tail end can be cut into and grind it into Buddhist beads and decorative gems. In the Buddhist world, the conch is deeply loved by many masters and believers. It is known as the "Seven Treasures of Buddhism" together with gold, silver, glass, agate, coral, amber and pearls.
"Is that so? I looked at it and there seemed to be a lot of them nearby! Since it is an organic gem, it's okay to get it up?" Zhou Jie asked.
This time he came out and followed Xiao Hai to hunt for treasure under the sea. He found it quite interesting.
Some viewers replied: "Check it out and it turns out that giant clams are protective animals!"
Xiao Hai said: "It is true that giant clams are protecting animals, but these giant clams seem to have died for a long time. So in principle, it is okay to get them back."
The so-called protection of animals is just to protect creatures that have not yet died. If all of them are dead, what kind of protection of animals are they still considered?
Just like the precious yellow-lipped croaker, one worth millions is even more expensive than the bluefin tuna, but because it is a protective animal, it cannot be caught. However, if you have just been bitten to death by other marine creatures and just pick up the fish corpse, then let me say it another way.
According to the law, illegal hunting and killing precious and endangered wild animals protected by the state.
Then, according to the word analysis, Xiao Hai and the others' behavior is indeed not illegal.
Seeing Xiao Hai say this, Jay Chou smiled.
"Then I'm not polite, get it up! Those who see you have a share." He didn't care whether it was worth it or not, he just enjoyed such a treasure hunting process.
"Yeah! That's fine." Xiao Hai didn't care, it seemed good to make everyone happy.
The main reason is that this giant clam is not as valuable as everyone imagines. Some ordinary-quality giant clams on the market can be bought for more than 100 yuan.
After hearing this time, the tourists who followed the sea went out to sea were all very happy.
There are many dead giant clam shells under this sea. Even if so many people share them, everyone can get a lot of weight, and maybe they can make a bracelet or something.
So, everyone supported it.
On the fishing boat, those guys were ready to respond and sank the long rope. When the island owner and the others tied the giant clams, they could pull the giant clams onto the boat through the glue machine on the boat.
Xiao Hai and Zhou Jie found a total of twenty or thirty huge giant clams at the bottom of the sea, the largest one was one meter two, and the smallest one was half a meter in size. These giant clams are enough for everyone to get some.
In addition to giant clams, some pearls were also found.
Unfortunately, the color is relatively poor and it is probably not worth it. But Jay Chou still picked it up and took it if he wants it.
Xiao Hai picked up a turtle's shell. This turtle shell is not a tortoise turtle and is not valuable. But someone in the live broadcast room wanted it, so he picked it up.
Everyone discovered that this seabed is like a cemetery of marine creatures, full of bones, carapaces, etc. left by organisms.
"I don't know what happened here, the entire ecosystem is over."
Logically speaking, even if the coral reefs die naturally, those creatures have no habitat and will leave in batches instead of dying here.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Hai was sure that there had been an unexpected situation here, causing the entire ecosystem to die suddenly, and some creatures had no time to escape.
Everyone thinks there is nothing wrong with the speculation about the island owner.
"Hey! There seems to be a shipwreck in front." Jay Chou immediately excited.
Xiao Hai moved the live broadcast camera forward, and the audience also saw a vague outline, which was really a shipwreck.
This time, Jay Chou gradually adapted to the underwater environment, and with Xiao Hai around him, his fear decreased a lot, and he actually took the lead in swimming.
The shipwreck, in everyone's heart, will have some expectations, which means treasure.
The audience urged Xiao Hai one by one to go over and take a look. Maybe he would meet Bao again.
When they came around the wreckage, they found that it was a warship, and the turrets on the warship were still clearly visible, but the entire hull was rusted and had a high degree of corrosion.
The entire shipwreck should be more than 100 meters long, which is not as good as an aircraft carrier, but it looks a bit shocking.
"It seems that it's not from China!"
"Did you see that logo? This is an RB warship, probably from World War II!"
