My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 290: Nautilus

, The fastest update of the latest chapter of my deep-sea fishery!

When Xiang Yang heard it, he immediately knew that neither Zhang Qicheng nor Li Chao cared about the sunfish.

He immediately stopped worrying about the sunfish and returned the topic to the vampire squid.

Xiang Yang asked: "Mr. Zhang, do you like to raise small luminous fish like vampire squid?"

"That's not true." Zhang Qicheng shook his head and said, "I went out this time, mainly because I also wanted to bring some local specialties back, so I bought some strange seafood."

"By the way, I also brought back a baby, I'll show it to you."

Zhang Qicheng got up, walked to the huge desk, opened a drawer, and took out a wooden box from inside.

He held the wooden box and walked to Xiang Yang with a smile, "Let me show you this, if you don't come, I really dare not show this to Lao Li."

Li Chao laughed, "What kind of shit, I dare not look at it, for fear that I will **** it?"

Zhang Qicheng ignored Li Chao and opened the wooden box.

Inside the wooden box lay a very weird conch.

Li Chao suddenly got up.

Xiang Yang also squinted his eyes.

That weird conch is the Nautilus that only exists in the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean.

Nautilus is a very ancient mollusk, which has an evolutionary history of hundreds of millions of years on this planet of life.

Among the existing cephalopods, only the nautilus has shells on its back, and the shells are not separated from the flesh.

The Nautilus shell is the miracle of Nautilus's life, and it also brings unlimited scientific reveries to human scientists.

When it comes to cephalopods, many people may say they don't know much about it.

In fact, the cephalopod is one of the major categories of molluscs. Other cephalopods include squids and octopuses. Nautilus is definitely the most special species in this category. At one time, scientists boldly speculated that Nautilus is fundamental They are not native creatures on the earth, they were brought to the earth from alien civilizations.

The Nautilus shell is thin and light, with a spiral shape, and the surface of the shell is milky white.

There are growth patterns on the shell, which are generally reddish brown, smooth and dense.

The shape of the entire nautilus shell is like a smooth disc, resembling the beak of a parrot, and the body is extremely gorgeous, with strong ornamental and artistic qualities, and it is a well-deserved work of art.

Most organisms have undergone hundreds of millions of years of evolution with the changes of the century. In order to survive better, they generally follow the natural law of "survival of the fittest" and change some of their body structures as the environment changes.

Like that giraffe, its necks will become longer and longer as they reproduce from generation to generation.

Another example is that vampire squid.

The ancient vampire squid fossil was one metre long, almost three times the size of the current vampire squid.

The ancient vampire squid lived in the shallow sea, and they were in the same era as the plesiosaur.

At that time, the plesiosaur had a length of more than ten meters, and it was fast and extremely fierce. The vampire squid without the protection of the hard shell could easily become the food of the plesiosaur. The vampire squid in ancient times had to flee when the plesiosaur was chased by it. To the deeper waters.

As the vampire squid migrated to the deep sea from generation to generation, they were constantly adapting to the pressure of the sea in deeper waters.

In the process of this evolution, not only the appearance of the vampire squid has become smaller and smaller, but the structure of the body has also undergone earth-shaking changes. They have evolved a pigment that allows its blood to store more than other squids. 5 times the oxygen, so the hypoxic environment can become a paradise for them in the next quarter of a thousand meters in the deep sea, and they can still be found even in a 4,000-meter deep trench.

This is the natural law of survival of the fittest.

But Nautilus has not obeyed this rule.

After 450 million years, the habits and appearance of Nautilus have hardly changed.

There are many guys who don't observe Newton's universal gravitation.

Only the Nautilus is the only one that does not comply with Darwin's theory of biological evolution.

Even scientists are puzzled by this phenomenon.

When Jules Verne, the father of science fiction, created "Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea", the submarine he imagined was called the Nautilus.

Probably Jules Verne himself did not expect that more than a hundred years after his death, the United States really built the world's first nuclear submarine based on the shape of the Nautilus, and that nuclear submarine was also called the Nautilus.

It is also worth mentioning that the number of nautilus shells is very rare.

After the Nautilus dies, the shell will separate from the animal body. The animal body will sink to the bottom of the sea and rot, while the shell will always float on the sea. After countless days and nights, one day it will be crushed by the waves.

"I pay a million, this one..."

"If you pay five million, this Nautilus cannot be transferred to you." Before Li Chao finished speaking, Zhang Qicheng interrupted without hesitation.

Xiang Yang was stunned.

Is this selling nuggets?

Buyers start at one million.

The sellers didn't even plan to sell them at all, and they were reluctant to do anything they wanted.

Zhang Qicheng closed the wooden box very preciously, "I want to treat this Nautilus as a family heirloom. No one is allowed to think about it."

Li Chao hurriedly stopped and said, "What are you doing when you close it? We don't want to make it, you let us take another look."

"Brother Chao." Xiang Yang asked with a smile, "Do you like shells so much? The same was true when you saw the snail last time."

Li Chao glanced at Xiang Yang, "You don't understand."

"I don't know much." Xiang Yang said with a smile: "But if you really like it, I will see it in the sea next time~www.readwn.com~ help you get it up."

Li Chao almost laughed at Xiang Yang's words, "What do you think Nautilus is? You can get that thing if you want?"

Zhang Qicheng also laughed, "The main reason why the four famous snails can become the four famous snails is because they are extremely rare. An ordinary seaman floating on the sea for a lifetime will not necessarily be able to catch a famous snail. I know Some time ago, you had fished a few pteris, but you must not think that it would be easy to get the four famous snails. It is basically impossible for you to get a nautilus in your entire life."

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows, he was hiding a nautilus in Qinglongwan.

It is also the ancestor of Nautilus, the straight-shelled Nautilus.

Li Chao also smiled and said: "Don't talk about Nautilus, any of the four famous snails can't be fished again. I appreciate your kindness, but I have never seen anyone twice in a row after so many years. Four famous snails were picked up from the sea, but the odds of getting one of them are the same as winning the lottery. How could someone win the lottery twice in a row?"

Xiang Yang was silent for a moment, and took out something from his arms, "This, I just caught it this morning."
