Immortality begins with whale hunting

Chapter 31 Deep sea fish, giant snake bone fish!
  After the sailors agreed, the Qianliu also turned around and followed the black pirate ship in a certain direction.

A few days later.

“That’s where the fish are?”

Bai Xuan stood beside the side of the ship.

Not far away, several black pirate ships were patrolling a sea area, and the skull and crossbones flags on the ships were very conspicuous.

He has an eye for the sea. Judging from the surrounding ocean currents, he is afraid that there is indeed a huge school of fish here, numbering more than hundreds of thousands of kilograms!

"Really a fish?"

Bai Xuan was also a little surprised.

He didn't expect that the gangsters who hired them to come here were actually here to fish. He thought there were some sunken treasures to be salvaged.

"Yes, this is where the fish are."

Silently, Bai Xuanji appeared beside the ship.

"You will lead the brothers to salvage later. Just be careful, as the thieves may not trust you."

"By the way, tell me to go down. There may be a strange species among the fish. If it can be found... Needless to say, that thing can be identified under any circumstances. Please notify me as soon as possible."

"I know."

Bai Xuan said.

It can be seen from Bai Xuanji's words that he may not trust the gangsters, it's just a transaction.

You know, the black thief can give each sailor fifty taels of silver, and there is a full five thousand taels of silver on this ship!
  This is not a small amount, and anyone who takes it out will be trembling.

What's more, Bai Xuanji must have received many benefits from it.

In this way, the amount of money the pirates paid was astonishing. It is difficult to say whether they would abide by the rules and conduct normal transactions.

The Qianliu stopped in this area and began to anchor and salvage.

"There is definitely a huge school of fish here. The net will be too heavy to collect. If we can catch it here, we don't need to continue fishing. We can just go home."

Some sailors marveled.

There is great uncertainty when fishing boats go out to sea. Sometimes there are too few fish to fill the warehouse, so they can only return with half a warehouse of fish.

Therefore, the advantage of whaling is that one large whale can basically meet the storage needs of a ship.

The same goes for such huge fish schools. Once discovered, it is like hunting a big whale. As long as the quality of the fish is high, the boat can make a lot of money.

"It's the silver-scaled hairtail fish!"

"Hiss, it turns out to be a silver-scaled hairtail, starting at 80 cents per pound!"

Sailors are a joy.

The quality of this school of fish is not low. One boat can catch up to 100,000 kilograms of fish. That is the price of 8,000 guan. Compared with fishing on ordinary days, you can earn half more on average!

"Keep fishing."

Bai Xuan commanded many sailors on the boat to set the nets for fishing.

His eyes are now like lightning, piercing through the sea water, and he can see the movement of fish under the deep sea. Once the snake-bone fish appears, he can immediately locate it.

……

A few days passed.

"It seems the pirates are also very cautious."

Bai Xuan looked at the pirate ship not far away.

These black pirate ships come and go freely, and on average they have to change their guard every once in a while. Apparently there are islands stationed in the nearby waters, some kind of hidden lair.

During this period, the catch has been handed over three times. This is a catch of 24,000 taels, which is an income of more than 20,000 taels of silver, which is more than hunting two large whales.

The black thieves probably changed hands and sold the bulk of the catch to other places, but that had nothing to do with the Qianliu.

As for what the gangsters want, the so-called alien existence...

There was none, no one saw it.

During this period, Bai Xuan was not idle. He was vigilant. He still practiced his marksmanship hard every day, but now there was no monster meat supplement. He served as a boatswain on the ship. After all, he was a fisherman with more work. His career as a fisherman progressed rapidly and he practiced horizontally. Dao Nian stagnated.

"The everlasting tree!"

Bai Xuan thought silently in his heart, and the bronze Dao tree emerged. In an instant, nine points of Dao thoughts were poured into the branches and leaves of the "trawling net".

In an instant, the muscles all over Bai Xuan's body swelled, and his energy and blood were like a volcano, almost erupting!
  Trawl (Dacheng, current progress: 90%)!

"It's still a little short of breaking through to the next level. Sure enough, at this level, it will take ten o'clock to break through to the first level."

Bai Xuan knew it well.

After Dacheng, I am afraid that this skill will reach the perfect level, and it may not be able to improve. This is the top of a skill on the path of fishermen. It is already transcendent, but it has not yet reached a higher level.

Just now.

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the deck.

"Monster fish, it's a demon fish!"

The fishing net broke open, and a huge monster fish with a length of more than three meters fell on the deck. The tentacles in its mouth spread wildly, rolled up a frightened sailor, and was about to stuff it into his mouth!

"not good."

On the other side of the deck, Third Officer Liu Yuezhi was shocked.

He was too far away to catch up, and the sailor was about to be torn apart by the demon fish before his eyes!    At this time.

Bai Xuan held the Cold Iron Speargun from behind. In an instant, he flashed and cut off the tentacles with one swing of the gun. Blood spurted out and the sailor fell to the deck, rolling away and crawling away.

The demon fish roared in pain, and the sound was completely unlike a fish!
  laugh!
  Before it could move and bite, Bai Xuan's head was pierced with a spear, and with a slight twist, the brains gushed out. The demon fish twitched for a moment and then lost its life and stopped moving.

"Push it overboard."

Bai Xuan ordered.

The surrounding sailors were in shock, but at this moment, some people were amazed.

"The bosun is so young that he killed the monster fish with one shot?"

"It turns out that the bosun's skill is not inferior to anything else."

"Isn't that speargun made of cold iron?"

Originally, many sailors had some basic respect for Bai Xuan's identity and strength as the boatswain, as well as admiration for his ability to judge fish schools in ocean currents.

But at this moment, when Bai Xuan slightly showed his strength, the situation was different.

Many sailors showed great respect when talking to him. The expressions of Gao Hong and Third Officer Liu Yuezhi also changed.

"What a handsome man...You are young, but your strength is hidden deep inside."

Liu Yuezhi paid great attention to it.

The existence of the other party even posed a slight threat to his position as third officer, but considering the existence of the three brothers of the Bai family, he weighed it in his mind.

Bai Xuan's future is promising, and it is better to build a good relationship. Sometimes, it is impossible to target, so it is better to make good friends and take a step back to open up the world.

At this moment, Bai Xuan naturally felt the attitude of these people.

"Strength is the best."

Bai Xuan sighed in his heart.

No matter how capable you are, it can't compare to the shock of killing the demon fish with one shot. In the chaotic sea, strength is king after all!
  ……

a few days later.

"what fish is this!"

"Hiss, the net is about to break!"

All the sailors were panicking.

It is common for monster fish to appear in the net, but at this moment, the giant fish in the net is bigger than ordinary monster fish. It is extremely powerful. Its power bursts out, making it impossible for more than a dozen sailors to join forces to control it. The fishing net was almost torn free!
  crucial moment.

Bai Xuan stepped forward, wrapped his arms around him, and put down roots like a tree under his feet, exerting all his strength!
  His ability to drag a net has now reached a point where he is close to a great achievement. He can pull up a thousand kilograms of fish, and when combined with his horizontal martial arts training, his arms can reach tens of thousands of kilograms of strength, which is unmatched by anyone.

Under his power, the fishing net stopped falling and rose up little by little!

"what fish is this?"

A moment later, with a roar, the fishing net was released, and a giant fish rushed onto the deck, causing everyone's expressions to change!

It was an extremely terrifying giant fish. The whole body was covered with hard bones, and the head was like a snake bone. It was extremely ferocious!

“You can’t find anything even after wearing iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get there!”

Only Bai Xuan's eyes flashed, and his heart was filled with joy!

This is exactly the snake bone fish he is looking for!

This type of deep-sea alien species is extremely rare. The large number of fish in the sea must have attracted this alien species to hunt.

On the deck, the snake-bone fish struggled desperately, and a sailor next to it chopped it with a knife, but there was only a clanging sound, and the sword immediately broke!
  "As expected, it's a heterogeneous species. This skeleton is probably about the same level as my iron bones, and it can't be broken by ordinary martial arts."

Bai Xuan's eyes flashed.

However, he did not step forward. He just slapped the spear gun in his hand and said loudly: "This kind of deep-sea fish can't live long on the water. Just put a net and tie it up and stay back!"

"Yes, boatswain!"

Many sailors responded in unison, retreated one after another, and threw the net ropes one by one. The more the snake fish struggled, the tighter it was tied. After a while, the huge snake fish became slow to move and gradually lost its vitality.

brush!
  Bai Xuan's figure flashed, and a spear penetrated the gap in the head. The body of the giant snake-bone fish froze, and then completely collapsed.

"Okay, now start dividing the catch!"

Bai Xuan ordered.

After Bai Xuan gave the order, many sailors stepped forward. The exoskeleton of the snake-bone fish was extremely hard and difficult to split. But even so, there were gaps. After death, the muscles loosened and the bones could not be locked, and they would still be broken a little bit. open.

"Just right to carve up that tender piece of meat."

Bai Xuan saw it clearly.

There is not a lot of edible fish recorded in the recipe. Most of the energy and blood of this snake bone fish are used to grow bones, and the remaining flesh and blood essence is only ten kilograms.

as predicted.

When the abdomen was finally divided, the bright and translucent tender meat was finally exposed, with flowing blood on it, as if it was still alive!
  Bai Xuan was happy in his heart and was about to put the more than ten kilograms of fish meat into his bag.

Not far away, one of the black pirate ships was approaching quickly.

"Put down that snake-bone fish!"

"This kind of exotic fish needs to be handed over to us black thieves for inspection. You have no right to take it!"

The ship was approaching, and there were dozens of black thieves on board with swords on their waists. Their voices came from far away, menacingly, as if they were supervising fishermen, and their tone was irrefutable!
