Back to the small fishing village in 1982Y

Chapter 294 Accidental Discovery
After dragging up the first net of fish and finding that there were no good or special fish, Ye Yaodong ignored it and handed it over to his father to sort it out, and he drove the boat to the reef.

At this time, the sky has turned pale, and the scene on the sea without the headlights is clearly visible.

That reef has indeed risen again.

He was a little excited. Could it be that he has just emerged and is still on the rise?

He drove the boat closer, carefully avoiding hitting the rocks.

After approaching, there are indeed many abalones and conchs adsorbed on the reef, which are clearly visible.

It's just that the height is not high, the highest position of the reef above the water surface is only about one meter, most of them are still under the water, and there are no little green dragons around.

"Father, let's take a look, is this reef rising or sinking?" He couldn't see clearly, so he couldn't be sure.

Father Ye hurriedly dropped the fish he was busy with, ran to the bow of the boat and watched carefully, "Why didn't I see anything move?"

"I also feel that way."

"The area of ​​the reef out of the water is too small, and there is no way to step on the surrounding area. Those abalones and conch are not easy to pick."

Ye Yaodong also frowned, there was really no place to step on, last time the reef also sank to about this position, they gave up and boarded the boat early.

"Otherwise, let's just wait here and see if it will move again?" Father Ye suggested, because the value of the abalone was too great, and he was reluctant to give it up.

What if it sinks directly?

Ye Yaodong thought about it for a while, "Father, let's tie the hook to the bamboo pole, and we will hold the buckle of the bamboo pole on the boat, and catch it with the net."

"Abalone and conch are big and have strong suction, so they may not be easy to hook."

"Try, just work a little harder, and check as many as you can."

The hooks and bamboo poles are ready-made on the boat, but they have to be tied tightly, and if they are loosened a little bit, they will be crooked and difficult to hook.

The father and son worked together, one was holding a handmade net, the other was holding a long hook, Ye Yaodong hooked it hard, unexpectedly they managed to overturn a fat abalone.

"It's done!"

The confidence of the two suddenly increased. Although it took a little effort, as long as they can dig it out, it will be a success.

Ye Yaodong tried to hook the conch again, but he couldn't hook it for a long time, because the fleshy area on the top of his head was too large, and it was absorbed too tightly.

In fact, the adsorption capacity of abalone is also very amazing. Most of them live on deep-water rocks, which are mostly cliff-like and the currents are turbulent.

When the food brought by the current flows past the abalone on the cliff, the abalone must ensure that it will not be swept away by the current to catch the food.

Therefore, it must be adsorbed on the reef with a relatively large adsorption force, that is, a relatively large sucker area is required to be attached to the reef, and the sucker is the soft foot of the abalone. If a person wants to uncover it, he must pay a lot of effort.

Therefore, when catching abalone, you can only take it by surprise and shovel it down or overturn it with lightning speed, otherwise even if you smash its shell, you will never want to take it off.

Ye Yaodong had an experience once, when he hooked quickly and accurately just now, it fell into the net.

The conch can't be hooked anymore, so I can only give up first.

The reef was only one meter high, and there were not many abalones. After working for a while, they dug up all the abalones on the surface of the reef, and even some that could be found under the water surface, but the reef remained motionless.

This made both father and son a little puzzled.

"Maybe this reef will be like this in the future, and it won't go up or down? Why don't you stop on the island first, cook something for breakfast, and then take a look after eating?"

Ye Yaodong nodded.

Some natural phenomena are so weird that you can't predict them at all, so you have to observe them for a while.

He is also very familiar with the isolated island next to him. Although he felt a little awkward thinking of the corpse, but considering his dream, he felt that since he had come here again, he might as well serve a bowl of sacrifice later, as a memorial to his previous life. of myself.

What is brought out today is rice cakes. You have to eat rice cakes to make money at the beginning of the new year, which means that every year is getting better every year.

Put in fresh seafood and cabbage, and after boiling, he scooped out a bowl first.

"Father, since I stopped here, I'll take a bowl and go up the mountain."

"Ah?" Father Ye frowned and hesitated for a while. Although he felt unlucky, he didn't say anything. The dead are the worst, "Then you go and come back quickly."

Ye Yaodong hurried up the mountain, it was not far away, only ten meters away from the sea.

The sacrifices that were placed before are gone, only the bowl is still there, which should have been washed away by the rain.

He put down the steaming hot rice cake that had just been cooked, and bowed three times, "I didn't expect to come back here today, so come and say goodbye by the way, and bless me with success and peace in this life."

Whether you get rich or not is not the most important thing. Only when everything goes well can your wishes come true.

After muttering a sentence, he planned to turn around and leave quickly, but when he turned around, he saw a stone under the tree on the left under the reflection of the sun, which stabbed his eyes.

He narrowed his eyes uncomfortably, then walked over curiously to have a look.

A golden stone the size of a fist seemed to be half buried in the mud. He picked it up curiously, and when he turned it around for inspection, his pupils constricted instantly.

"Golden dog head!"

"Fuck! Is it real gold?"

Although the whole body of the golden stone in the hand is relatively round, there are some small pits like honeycombs on the surface, and some protruding parts. The shape is a bit like a poodle that is full of naivety and barking up to the sky?

Dog head gold is also known as "horseshoe gold". Although the name has "gold", it is actually a mixed mineral that is naturally produced and contains large particles of irregular placer gold.

To put it simply, "dog head gold" is a gold ore with low purity, but it has the meaning of collection.

Most people like to pay attention to a "auspiciousness". The dog's head gold is upright, round, and has a strange shape. It is often regarded as a symbol of prosperity and auspiciousness, and it will bring wealth to people.

More importantly, the appearance of "dog head gold" is not accidental. It often means that there is a gold mine in the place where it is discovered.

Ye Yaodong looked back and forth happily, and suddenly he thought of something again, put the dog's head gold in his hand back into his pocket, found a flat stone to dig on the spot, dug down more than 20 centimeters, but found nothing.

Changed the position of the block again, and continued to dig beside it.

He dug five small holes in a row. Just as he heard his father's voice and was about to give up, he suddenly bumped into a hard object in a hole more than ten centimeters deep.

He put down the stone in his hand, and after digging a few times with his hands, he saw the rounded corner again, and his eyes widened in surprise.

again?
His father's cry was getting closer and closer to his ears, he quickly turned his head to answer, and then started digging happily.

As he dug, more and more rounded corners were exposed, and another corner emerged from the bottom. He thought there were two, but he didn't expect to pull out one.

It’s just that this piece of dog’s head gold is a bit smaller, and its color is not as golden as that of the previous piece. The two horns that were just exposed are like two “ears”, like a rabbit’s head?
No wonder it is said that the dog head gold is generally in the form of a beast.

Hearing his father's voice getting closer and closer, he turned his head to look for a while, and didn't bother to look for it any more. He put one in his pocket and hurried down the mountain first, so as not to worry him.
