My Deep-sea Fishery
Chapter 232: Phoenix snail
That is a conch.
A very large conch, which is quite big than Xiang Yang's two fists combined.
Xiang Yang was immediately surprised, and quickly swam over to pick up the large conch.
But even more pleasant surprises are still to come.
"Is this?" Xiang Yang held the large conch with a gloomy expression on his face.
In fact, Xiang Yang has long recognized the type of conch in his hand. Whether it is the oceanography major he studied in college or the shell sales business he engaged in after graduation, he can recognize the big one at a glance. Varieties of conch.
Without him, this conch is so famous.
Phoenix-tailed snails, also called Dafa snails, together with Tang crown snails, Wanbao snails, and Nautilus, are also called the world's four famous snails. It also ranks first among the four famous snails due to its unique appearance, beautiful patterns that resemble peacock tail feathers, and scarce numbers. Among all the shells, the snail is the most precious.
Due to the small number of snails, the price of snails on the market has been high, but collectors who love shells still love it.
Phoenix snails mostly grow in the Southwest Pacific, and the South my country Sea has the largest number. They generally like to inhabit under coral reefs or hide in aquatic kelp. They are an extremely precious resource bestowed by nature to mankind.
In addition, phoenix-tail snails can be made into horns. The trumpets that are blown out are thick and loud, which are the symbol of Buddha's Dharma sound. According to legend, the gods and gods rejoice when they are blown.
In particular, a branch of the Wu clan in Hunan Province that claims to be the master of master, they even regard the phoenix-tailed snail as the treasure of inheritance. Whenever a master of the contract finishes the third contract and the master opens the card, the master will pass on to the elder disciple a pair of hexagrams, A card scripture, a horn of a phoenix tail snail, those three things are the symbols of the master, and the rest of the apprentices follow this master to beat the gongs and drums to eat.
In Hainan, phoenix snails are also called sea gods snails besides Dafa snails. They are tall and pointed in appearance, and the height is less than half of the total shell height. There are often two obvious vertical expansion ribs on each layer of wide body. It is milky white with dark brown markings and crescent markings. The mouth of the shell is orange-brown, with white grooves between the teeth of the outer lip, the teeth of the shaft are white, and the teeth between the teeth are dark brown and the pattern is as gorgeous as the "phoenix tail".
Xiangyang's face is cloudy or sunny because this phoenix-tailed snail is not dead, it is alive.
A giant Phoenix-tailed snail like Xiang Yang's hand is generally worth tens of thousands of dollars in death. If it is in good condition, it can be worth at least a hundred thousand, if it has been passed down as a horn by witchcraft or Those who have been enshrined in the temple have no marginal value at all.
Isn't the undead Phoenix-tailed snails worthless?
Of course not. If the Phoenix-tailed snail is just because it is worthless to live, Xiang Yang’s face will not be cloudy and sunny. He wants to make a dead Phoenix-tailed snail alive. Xiang Yang can’t do it, but he has to keep one alive. There are still ways to kill Xiang Yang, and there is more than one way.
Xiangyang’s difficult thing is that the phoenix-tail snail is a protective animal.
Not to mention the phoenix tail snail, the first of the four famous snails in the world, none of the four famous snails in the world, and even the top ten famous snails in the world, has a protection level lower than two.
If Xiang Yang picked up a dead phoenix snail shell, then no one could tell him a little gossip. This thing is not a cultural relic, and he can sell it openly.
But if Xiang Yang, a living Phoenix-tailed snail, was caught, he would definitely have to go to the prison for a while.
Xiang Yang thought about it for a while and finally felt that he couldn't do something to kill the Phoenix snail sneakily. Some things may not be discovered by others, but once they are discovered, they will be forever.
released the Phoenix-tailed snail, Xiang Yang searched the surroundings more carefully.
Just kidding, I found a living snail in this sea area. Are you afraid that you won’t find a dead snail shell?
Not to mention, after Xiang Yang searched the neighborhood carefully, he really found several dead phoenix snail shells.
But it is a pity that the shells of these phoenix snails are obviously damaged. Even the best-preserved tail has a hole in it, and some simply have only one fragment left.
And the only intact snail shell found was also alive.
Xiang Yang was speechless.
This is actually very easy to understand.
snails lack effective means of attack. Once discovered by fierce marine predators, they often have to wait for death.
The snails have thick shells. Marine predators don’t want to eat the meat inside the shells without destroying the shells. In this way, they want to find the dead and complete shells of the snails. Only the snail shells of phoenix tail snails that died naturally or died of illness were left.
The number of shells like this is extremely small.
Xiang Yang sighed and was about to retreat, and was suddenly stunned when he turned around.
Xiangyang saw a palm-sized hole on a reef not far ahead, and four or five complete snail shells were piled up below the hole.
Xiang Yang stared at the four or five phoenix-tailed conch shells in disbelief, and was very excited when he saw it clearly.
Those phoenix snails are piled up together, and some even have their backs down~www.readwn.com~ are obviously dead phoenix snails.
But Xiang Yang didn't approach immediately. After all, there was a dark hole on the reef above the snail shells. If Xiang Yang guessed correctly, the murderer who killed the snails lived in that hole.
It's a great announcement, it's really good, it's worth installing, after all, you can cache books and read them offline!
"I hope it's not a sea snake." Xiang Yang took out the bio-electric gun and swam in that direction carefully. The fully-wrapped diving suit on his body can help him defend most of the dangers, as long as it's not like a sea snake. Most of the marine life can’t bite his wetsuit.
As a result, Xiang Yang was taken aback as soon as he took out the bio-stun gun.
The "murderer" who killed the four or five Phoenix-tailed snails got out of the hole and "surrendered" himself.
I saw two colorful and beautiful tentacles drilled out of the hole, and then a Jingxiu Chinese Jingxiu large lobster poked out a head from the hole, quietly looking at the outside.
After waiting for a while, the Jingxiu lobster seemed to be sure that there was no danger outside, and immediately crawled out of the hole.
After Xiang Yang froze, he was overjoyed. This Jingxiu big lobster weighed at least one or two catties, and it was also a "dead phoenix snail".
Body flashed, Xiang Yang instantly appeared on top of the Chinese Jingxiu lobster.
Xiang Yang's appearance scared the Chinese Jingxiu lobster. It probably had never seen a marine creature like Xiang Yang swimming at such a speed, and he was about to flee to his hometown immediately.
