The three of them arrived at the top of the fishing boat.
Although the wind and waves on the sea have gradually subsided, you still need to hold on to the railing to stay in shape.
"That's it!"
The wind was so strong that Chen Xue had to speak loudly to prevent her voice from being blown away in the strong wind. 32
Fang Yu and Tan Wanjun had already noticed that direction when they came up.
I saw huge mushroom clouds rising slowly from an unknown distance.
As we all know, Blue Star is round.
Therefore, the distance that people can see at sea level is related to the height at which they are located.
Depending on Fang Yu's current altitude, the farthest he can see is only a dozen nautical miles away.
The mushroom cloud was obviously beyond the effective distance from them. Fang Yu could only see the head position of the mushroom cloud and the gray-black cloud layer that had filled nearly half of the sky.
"It was like this over there a few hours ago, and it's still like this now, and the dark clouds are getting bigger and bigger!"
Chen Xue pointed at the gray and black clouds.
The clouds kept rolling in the sky and continued to expand. No one knew where it would continue to expand.
Whether it was due to an illusion or because of the strong waves on the sea, several people felt that the temperature that was originally compared to autumn seemed to have a hint of winter.
The sun in the sky is still shining brightly, but the sunlight shining on my body cannot dispel the coldness.
Due to the strong wind and waves, they can only adjust the speed of the fishing boat to 2 to 3 knots and move forward slowly against the waves.
Returning to the first deck, Fang Yu was a little worried about food reserves due to the current wind and waves.
By chance, as soon as I got to the deck, I saw Wu Renyao fishing under the wind and waves.
Fang Yu stepped forward and patted Wu Renyao's shoulder, looked at the little yellow-haired man with a strange look on his face, and asked in a confused tone.
"I said, Yaozi, what are you... doing?"
Wu Renyao was so slapped from behind by Fang Yu that he trembled all over. When he turned around and saw Fang Yu, he smiled sheepishly and said.
"Ah, Brother Yu, I...I'm fishing..."
Fang Yu's expression became even weirder.
"I don't know if you are fishing...but...the waves are so big, if you fish at this time, you may not be caught by a fish and be caught in the sea later!"
Fang Yu slapped Wu Renyao angrily. Under the bumps of the waves, Wu Renyao fell to the deck after being slapped by Fang Yu.
Wu Renyao, who stood up again, obviously understood what Fang Yu meant.
These sea fish are quite powerful. When they were fishing yesterday, the fish had to slip away for a long time. Today, the waves are strong, and if you are not careful, you may be pulled into the sea by the fish.
If you fall into such waves, no matter how good the water quality is, you will be ruined.
"I...I just...I heard that Xiaoyi needs to drink fish soup to replenish her body, so I want to continue to catch some fish to replenish her body."
Fang Yu was stunned.
Some people have always said that love makes people mentally retarded, but he didn't believe it at first.
I understand a little bit better today.
"Don't you know we still have yesterday's fish in the refrigerator?"
Fang Yu was a little surprised.
"Oh...have all the fish we caught yesterday been put in the refrigerator? I thought we had finished eating..."
Wu Renyao's tone was a little surprised.
Fang Yu patted her head helplessly and continued.
"Even if you want to make fish soup for Yuan Yi, when do you plan to catch fish? We have fishing nets! Brother, on the sea, you may not be able to drink chicken soup, but if you want to drink fish soup, I will do it six times a day.
Do you believe that I drank you until you vomited?"
Fang Yu originally had an idea, but now after seeing Wu Renyao's stupid remarks, he simply made up his mind.
"You go to Brother Yong and tell him to prepare bait. Today, while the waves are still stable, I plan to catch a net and fill the refrigerator first, then hang it up and make more dried fish to prepare for the follow-up."
Thinking of the smoke column that Chen Xue mentioned, and the spreading clouds.
Fang Yu didn't know what it was, but it didn't affect him to prepare for a rainy day, prepare supplies first, and make follow-up plans.
The sun never sets, and the sea knows no time.
If it weren't for the clock, Fang Yu wouldn't have dared to confirm. In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
Considering that the fish might hide in the deeper sea due to strong wind and waves, Fang Yu specifically asked Chen Xue to check the fish detection radar before deciding how deep to put the fishing net.
In this high-risk environment, Fang Yu could only use cast nets to ensure catches. If longline fishing was used, it would take who knows how long just to lay out the bait.
The result was as he expected.
Under such wind and waves, the fish basically hide at a depth of forty or fifty meters under the sea.
Once the net was down, Fang Yu didn't even dare to catch more, for fear that the waves would directly break the fishing net.
However, the final catch was still very impressive, after all, these fish were only for the nine of them to eat.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, these fish were quite fat. After pulling the catch into the fish hold, everyone except Liu Chunyan and the children helped to process the catch.
Open the belly and collect the swim bladder.
It's a coincidence.
Fish maw has the effect of treating kidney deficiency, ejaculation, hemorrhage, traumatic bleeding, dystocia, postpartum wind, etc.
It coincides with Yuan Yi’s recovery from miscarriage.
These fish maws can be processed and boiled to replenish her body.
Then, they sorted the fish, removed the heads and tails, and filled the freezer first. The remaining fish were threaded through the gills with fishing line, smeared with sea salt, and hung directly on the deck or spread on the deck.
The endless sunshine will dry it into dried fish.
If there are any excess, they can only be put back into the sea.
There is no way. Preservation of fish at sea is originally a big problem. If it is a large offshore fishing vessel, they can also have ultra-low temperature quick freezing technology to keep the fish fresh longer.
But obviously Fang Yu's medium-sized fishing boat does not have such equipment.
Because this kind of medium-sized fishing boat usually goes out to sea on the same day, using the fish cabin as a temporary storage point, it will return directly after catching enough fish, and sell them directly on the dock.
It is impossible to have equipment for long-term preservation.
After the food preparations were completed, fresh water was also being prepared. Fang Yu did everything he could think of, and the rest could only wait for the sea to calm down.
And this wait is just one week!
Fang Yu also didn't expect that the mushroom cloud actually lasted for a whole week!
Moreover, on the fourth day, the spreading clouds covered their location!
dark night.
Fang Yu has been in this world for more than a year, and this is the first time she encounters the dark night!
Thick black and gray clouds completely covered the sky above them, and the sunlight could not penetrate the clouds, so that underneath, there was darkness.
As the clouds covered farther and farther behind, there was no longer a trace of sunshine on the sea, and Fang Yu and the others felt the long-lost darkness.
But this is not something to be happy about.
With the cloud cover, Fang Yu and the others could already smell the vague smell of sulfur and coke in the air.
Combined with the gray and black clouds above my head.
Fang Yu and the others finally guessed where the mushroom cloud that lasted for almost a week came from.
