Chapter 541 Are you kidding me?
Underwater, bubbles keep rising.
The seabed was pitch black. The light from the flashlight could only penetrate less than 6 meters in the sea water. It was terrifyingly quiet, without any sound at all.
There was no sound of wind or water. The only thing that existed was the sound of one's own heartbeat.
Bifang clenched his teeth tightly around the breathing valve, raising his perception to the highest level, extending it to fifteen meters. The Niugang croakers wandered and flashed in the circular area, occasionally breaking into the ten-meter range, which would make Bifang break out in a cold sweat.
Whenever Bifang tried to float up by dragging Mandy, the Niugang trevally would attack and knock Bifang and Mandy to the bottom of the water.
This is a hunter with an extremely ferocious temperament, but also quite cunning.
Bifang exhaled slowly, leaned back slowly, pressed his body against the rock wall, and silently removed the flashlights above his and Mandy's heads.
He cut the fishing net used to hold the camera equipment and tied it to himself and Mandy to stabilize their bodies. Then he removed the oxygen cylinder from his body, took a last deep breath of oxygen, tightened the valve of the oxygen cylinder, wrapped the two flashlights together, and tied a breathing tube to the oxygen cylinder.
My heart was pounding.
Bifang's body temperature was rising rapidly, and at this time he could no longer feel the coldness of the sea water.
He held his breath, made sure the flashlight was firmly fixed, and slowly unscrewed the valve.
Slowly stepping on the rock wall, Bifang used the force to climb up little by little. Seeing that he was about to escape, Niugang Wanju launched another charge.
Bifang, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly pulled open the valve in his hand and pulled Mandy up the wall!
Stones were trampled off the rock wall, large pieces of fragile sandstone were smashed into pieces by the bull trevally, and large amounts of sand and dust were stirred up in the sea water.
In the turbidity, the oxygen cylinder with the valve unscrewed quickly sprayed out a stream of air, with a glowing flashlight, drawing a white wave mark in the deep ocean, and quickly shooting away into the distance.
What’s even more incredible is that at the moment the flashlight flew out, the Niugang trevally actually turned around and rushed towards the direction of the flashlight!
There is no doubt that this is a good opportunity to escape!
Bifang pulled Mandy and floated up with all his strength while the Niugang trevally was chasing the flashlight.
A minute later, when the light from the lighthouse swept across Dolphin Bay again, Bifang suddenly emerged from the water, split the waves with his strong arms, and swam towards the shore.
Keke on the shore noticed the movement and swam towards Bifang as quickly as water, and the two met in the water.
Keke was surprised at Mandy's coma: "What happened?"
Bifang spit out a mouthful of sea water, panted, and said hoarsely: "Go ashore first."
With one more person to help, Bifang instantly felt much more relaxed, and the two of them worked together to drag Mandy towards the shore.
Only when he could step on sand and stones did Bi Fang breathe a sigh of relief. He fell on his back on the sand and coughed laboriously.
He also choked on a lot of water when he was hit by the Niugang trevally underwater just now.
Mandy was dragged by Keke, leaving a long trail in the sand.
He unzipped Mandy's wetsuit and began performing CPR.
They are all good divers and are very familiar with how to deal with drowning. With Bifang's help, in less than half a minute, a large amount of seawater overflowed from Mandy's mouth and nose, and she finally woke up suddenly.
Mandy sat up suddenly, spat out a mouthful of sea water and coughed violently.
Keke sat down on the beach, looked at Bifang, and asked with difficulty: "What happened?"
Mandy coughed for a long time and finally came to his senses. He looked around in confusion, and felt a sharp pain in his forehead. He suddenly remembered the scene before he fell into a coma. A ghost face suddenly rushed towards him from the darkness. The next moment, Mandy could not remember anything.
Bifang sat up from the ground and breathed a sigh of relief: "A Niugang trevally."
"Niugang trevally?"
Mandy and Keke were both stunned.
The former matched the image of the Niugang trevally with the ghost face in his memory, and suddenly he understood what was going on. He reached out and touched his forehead, but quickly withdrew his fingers in severe pain.
"Shit, it's actually a Niugang scad! No wonder my forehead hurts so much!"
If Mandy knew what the Antarctic Immortal was, he would definitely find that he was highly similar to the Immortal at this moment.
Niugang trevally is not a rare fish. On the contrary , people who are familiar with diving and sea fishing are familiar with it.
Because it is so strong, powerful, and extremely ferocious, it often attacks sea fish that are about to be caught.
Keke had this experience once. He had just caught a red snapper and was about to reach out to grab it, but a huge bull trevally suddenly rushed over and swallowed the red snapper in one gulp. He was so scared that he almost fell into the sea.
They even dare to steal human prey, which shows how ferocious the Niugang trevally is.
Because of its immense strength, great flexibility, extremely fast swimming speed and strong fighting ability, the Niugang trevally is known as the wild buffalo of the water.
It would be a great honor and sense of accomplishment if you could catch a Niugang trevally.
At this point, Niugang trevally has become famous in the sea fishing world and has become the ultimate target fish for sea anglers. As a sea angler, there is a restless desire in his heart to conquer that huge and powerful monster.
It’s just that there are not many people who succeed, but there are a lot of people who get dragged down.
The same is true in the diving world. Many divers are sometimes more afraid of seeing the bull trevally than seeing a shark.
Ke Ke asked hurriedly: "What about it now? Is it dead? Or something else? Oh, where is your oxygen tank?"
Bifang shook his head. He had just been underwater. On the one hand, he was carrying Mandy, so it was inconvenient for him to move. On the other hand, no one could predict how long the fight would last. If it lasted too long, Mandy would easily die.
The water depth at that time was already over 30 meters. If you dive frequently, you will know that there is a critical point for natural floating while diving, which is between 30 and 40 meters underwater.
Due to the pressure of air, you no longer need to swim 30-40 meters underwater, your body density will become very high, allowing your body to sink naturally and then enter the "free fall stage".
This is also the most wonderful stage of diving. You don’t have to do anything and you will be pushed into the depths of the ocean.
But the situation at that time was not pleasant for Mandy, but rather fatal.
Once Bifang lets go, this guy will naturally sink to the bottom of the water. He is already in a drowning state, and no one can guarantee what will happen. If he fights with the Niugang trevally for too long, this guy may be dead.
Drowning and suffocation are completely different.
The relative time of death will be very fast, usually around 2-3 minutes.
A large amount of water enters the lungs and stomach in a short period of time.
Pulmonary edema, severe dilution of blood and tissue fluid, lack of oxygen exchange in the body, severe cardiac burden, and finally various symptoms combined, leading to painful drowning.
This means that Bifang only had less than two minutes left.
He was powerless to fight, and he couldn't fight.
So Bifang adopted a tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west in a hurry. It is impossible to throw things too far in the water, so he tied a flashlight to the breathing tube, opened the valve of the oxygen cylinder, and used the air pressure to drive the flashlight, forming the effect of a swimming light column on the seabed.
It is not a panacea, it depends on the fish you are dealing with.
Changing the fish may not have such a good effect, or even be useless.
Mandy and Keke looked at each other in confusion.
Bifang stood up and explained, "Niugang trevally particularly prefers fish of the genus Pleurotus in the family Decapoda. As the next level in the food chain, fish of the genus Pleurotus are phototactic and love light very much."
"Niugang trevally usually forages at night. The fundamental reason is that the creatures at the lower level of their favorite food chain like light, so they will gather under the lights to hunt."
"Maybe this is why the bull trevally attacked Mandy in the beginning. They saw the light column and mistook it for a plum bream, but only realized it wasn't after they hit it."
Mandy was speechless after listening to this. Was it really all her bad luck?
The moving flashlight gave the Niugang trevally some wrong information, making it mistakenly believe that there would be more delicious bream there.
With more delicious food, the Niugang croaker would naturally let go of the two people who attacked Bifang, as that would be a thankless task.
It's like Bifang hunting in the jungle, not having eaten for several days, and finally found traces of animals, but when he looked over, it turned out to be a wolf.
Wolves are wolves, it’s not that we can’t eat them. Although their meat is tough and smelly and very dangerous, it’s not impossible.
But you were planning to kill a wolf, but suddenly a pheasant with a lame leg passes by you.
Even a fool would give up wolf meat out of biological instinct and turn to chicken, which is more delicious and more readily available.
Mandy and Keke suddenly understood and looked at Bifang in amazement.
From the time the incident happened to the time they got ashore, it took less than two minutes. While normal people would be terrified, Bifang was able to find a way out by observing the attacker's eating habits.
Is this something a human would do?
Bifang took off the upper body of the diving suit and found that the upper middle part of his right arm was swollen and darker in color, obviously red and swollen from being hit.
Mandy and Keke were silent for a moment. Although they were shocked and felt it was outrageous, it was normal for Bifang to do so.
The only problem is…
"What now? What do we do now? Will the Niugang trevally still be down there?"
The two asked.
It’s not even eleven o’clock yet, and most of the tasks are still not completed. What should I do next?
The meat of Niugang trevally is not tasty, it is rough and has a strong fishy smell, and is generally used as animal feed. Ke Ke fishes for it purely for its fighting power and for the sheer pleasure of fishing.
The more this is the case, the more it proves the horror of the Niugang trevally.
"It's simple." Bifang put on his diving suit again, "Just kill it."
“Kill…Kill?”
The expressions on their faces were fascinating.
Bifang picked up a spare oxygen cylinder and ran to the woods nearby, pulling out a wooden spear.
The whale harpoon is coated with an anti-corrosion metal layer and is not afraid of seawater, but the refined steel is not. For this reason, Bifang was reluctant to bring it into the water at first.
When fishing in the sea, a harpoon is the most effective weapon.
Using the same operation to fix the whale harpoon on the wooden spear, Bifang jumped into the sea again under the gaze of Mandy and Keke, and kept approaching the depths.
"Wait, he didn't bring a flashlight!" Keke exclaimed.
Mandy twitched her lips and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
"I think he might not need this."
"Are you kidding me?"
"Yeah, you're kidding."
