Ye Ersao smiled and said, "Adong is selling dried fish now, which is enough for him to earn, so why raise pigs? Raising pigs is not easy. I don't know how many trips I make back and forth every day, and I have to cut pig grass and cook pig food. It's troublesome."

Ye Yaodong nodded seriously, so he just waited to buy ready-made ones to eat, they raise them.

The four people walked and talked back to the entrance of the house, and then returned to their own homes.

Ye Yaodong was still thinking about the sound he heard on the beach before. After knocking on the courtyard gate, he saw the old lady wearing a cotton-padded jacket and opening the door, so he handed the bucket of hot pork he just bought to her and let her take it into the house first.

"Aren't you coming in? It's still early before dawn, go back to the room and take a nap."

"I'll go to the beach to see, right, I have to bring two long and short hand-held fishing nets, and bring a bucket."

The old lady looked at him coming in again, and after mentioning the meat to the house, she searched for tools everywhere, and hurriedly followed him, "It's dark, what are you doing on the beach?"

"Catching fish, fish are more active at night. When I went out before, I saw fish under the water, but I didn't have time to guard there. Anyway, I definitely won't be able to sleep if I go back to the room, so I'll go see again."

"It's cold, it's dark, sleep for a while and wait until dawn, don't catch a cold..."

"It's okay, I'm not cold, you go back to the room."

After Ye Yaodong found the tools, he carried them in his hand and walked out, not caring that the old lady was still nagging behind him.

The light similar to a ghost they saw before was gone now. I don't know if the appearance of that beam of light needs any omen, or is there a principle?

Fortunately, it was gone, otherwise the old man would have been startled, don't be startled into illness.

After he took the flashlight to the beach, he shone it everywhere, and saw some small fish and shells stranded, so he picked them up into the bucket.

This picking couldn't stop at all. Night is more active than day, and the newly stranded ones are fresh. It's just that they are all worthless small fish, which can only be eaten by the family. Generally, people dislike small fish because they are all thorns and waste oil.

Ye Yaodong was instantly distracted by the stranded fish and shrimp, but he only picked for a while and planned to give up. Originally, he thought there would be big fish. If there were only these small fish and shells, why was it worth him sacrificing sleep time?

Just when he straightened his body and stretched, he heard a pitter-patter sound on the water surface, but when he turned his head to look, he didn't see anything, only ripples on the sea surface, constantly rippling.

He shone with a flashlight, stared carefully at the sea surface, and then discovered that there seemed to be light flickering under the water in the distance?

Actually, it has been intermittent, but he missed it several times when he lowered his head to pick up fish.

"Eh? Really?" He was pleasantly surprised. After shining the flashlight into the distance for a long time, he discovered that there seemed to be a gray figure.

Suddenly, the gray figure jumped out of the water and fell back into the sea.

"Ah damn, it's a baby shark."

Looking at it, it was only a meter long, still a cub among cubs. His eyesight was quite good. This adult great white shark can grow to six or seven meters.

It felt like it was still a long distance away. In this cold winter, he didn't want to wade through the water to go over. Catching it wouldn't sell for a few yuan. Ye Yaodong thought about it and forgot it.

This great white shark likes to patrol around the coast. They usually cruise in a purposeful way, either on the seabed or near the sea surface, but spend relatively little time in the deep water area.

Although he didn't plan to go into the water, he didn't go home immediately. He was still quite curious, holding a flashlight and shining it on the sea surface where the baby shark just appeared.

As a result, he saw ripples rippling under the water surface, and from time to time splashed water, but after a while, he felt it struggling violently?

Eh?

Ah?

Not right, he just saw light under the water surface. The baby shark can't emit light!

He instantly felt like he had discovered a new continent. This was novel. Besides the baby great white shark, there were other fish.

He was even less in a hurry to go back. He kept shining the flashlight forward, staring wherever the water splashed, and as a result, he really saw the light he found under the water before.

After a while, the baby great white shark suddenly jumped out of the water again, and approached the beach a bit more. Ye Yaodong also instantly discovered that it actually had a fish hanging on it, and the fish's belly was emitting light.

"Ah, found the reason!"

It's a cookiecutter shark!

The fish with light on its belly is a cookiecutter shark!

He said, how could it be a toad fish? Toad fish stay at the bottom, and it should not be able to reach the beach.

As the baby great white shark approached the shallow beach, the cookiecutter shark with light on its belly also got closer.

"Came over, fought~"

Ye Yaodong was also excited after seeing it was a cookiecutter shark. This fish is not big, but its aggressiveness is very strong. It is an extremely cruel shark.

Because the body size is relatively small, it can fix its mouth firmly on the prey after attacking, so when the baby great white shark jumped out of the sea just now, it brought it out by the way.

The cookiecutter shark generally has a body length of about 42 to 56 centimeters. The overall color is tea brown, and the belly is white. Its distribution in the world is quite wide.

Generally lives in the sea area between 0 and 3500 meters, and performs diurnal vertical migration every day. Simply put, it swims to the shallow sea at dusk, and then swims back to the deep sea at dawn.

It has a big feature, which is using the "light emitter" on the belly to lure prey.

The light Ye Yaodong discovered under the water surface before was its light emitter.

After the prey is curious and approaches, it will suck its mouth on the prey, then bite the prey's body with sharp teeth, and then start to rotate its body crazily until it tears off a large piece of meat.

Because its mouth structure and attack method are very special, it often leaves obvious "round scars" on various prey.

Some unlucky eggs are even attacked several times, and the shape on their bodies is like being "cupped", which is unbearable to look at.

Now the baby great white shark in the sea, this cargo might be that unlucky egg. It is estimated that it has been suffering from the attack of the cookiecutter shark, so it struggled in the water and issued a pitter-patter water sound, and jumped out of the water surface.

It hasn't been bitten to death for so long, it is estimated that it is also thanks to its large body size.

Although the cookiecutter is cruel, its body size is small, but it is not convinced, and doesn't think its strength is limited to this.

Therefore, it often launches attacks on some creatures several times its size. Even the killer whales and great white sharks at the top of the food chain have been harmed by it.

This baby great white shark, in Ye Yaodong's opinion, is estimated to be unable to escape the magic claw, and being bitten to death is a matter of time.

Judging from the movement he heard before he went to the old house to see the pig killing, it has been more than an hour, and it is estimated that it will be gone soon?

Looking at them swimming closer, Ye Yaodong also saw it more clearly. The baby great white shark really looked pitted and scarred, and I don't know how long it had been ravaged.

That cookiecutter shark seemed to be fighting guerrilla warfare. Before it bit off a piece of meat, the baby great white shark couldn't attack it at all, and couldn't attack it, so it could only struggle painfully under the water.

And after biting, it relied on its small body size to hide flexibly in the water, and the baby great white shark couldn't do anything about it.

However, the size gap is there. Even if it bites, it is impossible to eat the baby great white shark completely, but sometimes it will cause infection, eventually endangering life.

Although the baby great white shark is not yet an adult, it is also a violent temper. As more meat is bitten off, its pain becomes more intense, and it struggles more violently on the water surface, water splashes everywhere, and the movement on the water surface gradually approaches the beach.

Afraid of being splashed by water, Ye Yaodong took a few steps back, and picked up the long-handled hand-held fishing net he threw on the ground just now, hesitating whether to go up and catch it.

That cookiecutter shark, although small, will attack people. Its teeth are long like serrated teeth, and great white sharks are not as cruel as it.

He had seen one caught before, and it wasn't dead yet. When a crew member went up to sort it, it suddenly exploded and bit his finger hard. If it weren't for everyone helping to kill it, and it left the water for too long, the crew member's bones would almost be bitten off.

Thinking about it, be careful, it shouldn't be a big problem if you don't reach out before killing it.

He stood on the beach and tried to gesture, but it was still a distance away, not long enough, so he had to wait patiently for a while. It was impossible for him to go into the water.
