My Deep-sea Fishery

Soon, the rested crew members went down to the sea again and continued their collection work.

This time, Xiang Yang also went to help. He picked some mature and larger-sized Gelidium from the bottom of the sea to transport the Gelidium from the bottom of the sea, and then asked the people who stayed in the boat to pull the Gelidium from the bottom of the sea.

Of course, Xiang Yang didn't do this all the time.

After Xiang Yang took two trips, he found that the crew could complete the job well under the leadership of Chen Qingsheng, and there was no need for himself here, so he immediately stopped collecting those stone cauliflowers actively.

After freeing up, Xiang Yang swam towards the mysterious sea covered with hoarfrost again.

This time, Xiang Yang did not go directly to the bottom of the sea, but first swam to the top of that sea area, and then lowered his head to look down at the sea area. He had to take a good look at the bottom of the sea area.

To be honest, the mysterious hoarfrost covered under this sea area is very wide, and the vast expanse of white frost on the bottom of the sea is like ice and snow. Looking down from above, it is very spectacular and very beautiful, as if people are standing high. In the air, overlooking the Great Xing'an Mountains in winter is normal.

"These things, aren't they coral insects?" Xiang Yang wondered.

Whether it is the super-large sea cucumbers that Xiang Yang discovered before, or the small sea fishes that are shuttled in a white expanse now, it proves that these white frost-like substances are not toxic substances, at least for most marine organisms. , It is not a toxic substance.

But Xiang Yang really couldn't understand what these white things were.

Xiang Yang knew that some polyps were white.

However, these white frosty substances did not look like coral worms.

Besides, these white things are like snow, and it is impossible for corals to live so densely.

Forget it, just ignore these white things, look for rare catches.

Xiang Yang began to wander around under the sea.

Although Xiang Yang did not find the second plum sea cucumber, Xiang Yang discovered that the species under this sea area are still extremely rich.

A large number of sea snails are hidden under the white frosty substance.

Because the conch itself is also white, it is difficult for ordinary people or marine creatures to find those conch hidden in the shadows.

Xiang Yang only discovered it after reading it carefully.

And among these conch, there are many rare varieties.

Even Xiang Yang saw a living nautilus. The little guy was twisting and twisting in the sea, swimming in the sea like a spinning top.

It may be that when Xiang Yang discovered that Nautilus, that Nautilus also discovered Xiang Yang.

It stopped swimming abruptly, then sank toward the bottom of the sea at the speed of a natural fall, and landed on the white bottom of the sea, then lay on its stomach, motionless.

Xiang Yang smiled slightly and swam towards the Nautilus.

Although the number of this kind of snails is now very scarce, and it is strictly forbidden to catch them in various countries, Xiang Yangyou went to look at it and it was not good. He didn't catch it anyway.

Xiang Yang swam to the side of the Nautilus, then squatted down and carefully looked at the small snail that was not as big as a palm.

Xiang Yang stared at the nautilus for a long time and found that the appearance of this nautilus was a bit like an ammonite, and it seemed a little different from a normal nautilus shell.

In fact, Nautilus evolved from ammonite fossils.

There existed many creatures that no longer exist in prehistoric times. With their powerful vitality, certain prehistoric creatures have survived several major disasters on the earth and have survived to the present.

But these ancient creatures that have existed to the present are actually very different from their prehistoric ancestors.

Nautilus is such an ancient creature.

The ancestor of Nautilus is the ammonite.

Xiang Yang once saw pictures of huge ammonites in his textbooks. At that time, Xiang Yang was very surprised as to what kind of creatures could have such huge shells that they could almost get in by themselves.

Ammonites are creatures of the class of cephalopods. As literally said, its feet are on the head, just like squids. It is also a shelled mollusk. Ammonites are actually In the history of mankind, it has always been a mysterious creature.

The English scientific name of ammonite originated from the ancient Egyptian **** Amun. The image of Amun created by the Egyptians is a **** with sheep horns or heads. The shape of ammonites happens to be very similar to sheep horns.

At that time, many scholars directly referred to ammonites as the horns of the **** Amon, and believed that ammonites were a kind of sacred stone at that time and possessed the magic power in exchange for the future.

In the Middle Ages, England called ammonites serpentine.

At that time, Westerners believed that the appearance of ammonites looked like a snake without a head, so there is a legend in the local area that ammonites were headless snakes whose heads were chopped off by Saint Hilda.

At that time, there were legends that sorcerers could use ammonites to awaken sleeping gods.

In fact, the main reason why ammonite fossils have so many legends of strange power and chaos, apart from its appearance, is that humans have very limited understanding of this creature, because the origin of ammonites was 400 million years ago. , But it went extinct with the dinosaurs about 66 million years ago.

Therefore, ammonite fossils appear in front of humans in the form of fossils.

In the past, humans had limited research capabilities on fossils, so they had so many imaginations. Now scientists know from its fossils that ammonites are carnivores, and they mainly use tentacles to hunt some fish or fish. Crustacean creatures.

Some tooth marks are often found on ammonite fossils. Scientists infer that these tooth marks came from the largest natural enemy Canglong at the time. At the same time, scholars also found ink on ammonite fossils. It is inferred that ammonites, like octopuses, can evade natural enemies by spitting ink.

Of course, it may also be that many years ago, there was a creature like squid in the recipe of ammonite fossils. The ink in the ammonite fossil was actually food residue.

According to Xiang Yang’s knowledge, females of ammonites usually have larger shells than males, which may be convenient for laying eggs. At the same time, there are many types of their shells. In addition to our most common spiral shape, ammonites also have this Kind of elongated, tower-shaped, or even such exaggerated and irregularly shaped shells.

Moreover, the shell size of ammonites varies greatly, some shells are less than one centimeter, and some shells grow to more than two meters like giant sea monsters.

Germany has discovered super-giant ammonite fossils over two meters in size in North America.

Xiang Yang was a little puzzled. The more he looked at this snail, the more he felt like an ammonite. Even if the nautilus evolved from ammonites, Xiang Yang felt that the appearance of the nautilus should be very different from its prehistoric ancestors. That's it.
