Bi Fang was the first to discover non-reflective shadows, and his tired spirit instantly became tense.
This is the sea, where the sky and the sky are not responding to each other, and the earth and the earth are not functioning properly. It is truly isolated and helpless. Anyone who suddenly sees a non-reflective shadow in the middle of the night will be frightened.
Especially when the shadow is still quite large, the emotion of fear is as uncontrollable as a person's breathing.
Bi Fang's strangeness attracted the attention of some viewers. When they followed Bi Fang's line of sight, they also discovered something unusual.
On the bright sea, the shadow is like a spreading darkness, and all the light flows out of the darkness.
[Holy shit, what the hell is coming? 】
【What a big piece】
【Fish?】
【Why does the fish move so slowly?】
Everyone was a little worried about how bad Bi Fang's condition was. Everyone had witnessed it with their own eyes. He hadn't eaten for two days. Although his life was not in danger, it was by no means in a full state. It would be good if he could exert half of his strength.
Can you withstand an accident?
Even Jarrett and Pondy were very alert. They immediately informed the driver that if there was any danger, they should rush to the rescue quickly.
The shadow is about one square meter in size. From a visual point of view, it is quite large, especially in the dark night. Coupled with the chilling music of the director of photography, such a large shadow adds a lot of tension.
The life raft is not a wooden raft, but inflated rubber and nylon cloth. Any danger encountered may lead to air leakage. Once the raft has a hole, even if it is only as big as the palm of your hand, the challenge will basically be declared a failure.
So Bi Fang had to work hard and treat this shadow with extreme caution. This was really embarrassing for him who had been hungry for two days in a row. It was a double burden on the body and mind.
Perhaps because there were no waves during the day, the mere appearance of a shadow was enough to arouse the audience's interest, and the number of viewers began to increase slowly.
Lying beside the raft, Bi Fang stared at him for more than ten minutes, until his eyelids were knotted, and the black shadow remained motionless.
Is it a dead thing?
Thinking of this, Bi Fang became more energetic. Good guy, I was worried that I didn't have any materials, so here comes a piece of information. Is it because my luck has exploded in the past two days?
Even a piece of plastic sheet would be of great use to him now.
"Maybe I should go up there and take a look."
Bi Fang, who had been watching for a long time, decided to step forward and take a look. From the current point of view, it didn't look like there was any danger, but there were still many timid spectators who were a little scared.
The spooky soundtrack, the dark environment, and the ups and downs of the shots are quite like watching a ghost movie. I am afraid that when Bifang passes by and just reaches out his hand, some monster will jump out of the shadows and bite him.
Having made the decision, Bi Fang did not approach rashly, but stretched out his hand to catch some sea water and sprinkled it into the distance. The sound of water falling on the sea was particularly obvious.
The shadow remained motionless and was not attracted by the sound of water. Now Bi Fang was determined and took some water again, this time pouring it directly towards the shadow.
The result remains the same.
"It does seem to be something dead."
After confirming it many times, Bi Fang was a little excited. No matter what kind of dead object it is, it is a material. If it is a material, it can be used, so it is a good thing!
After making sure that the opponent was not a threat, Bi Fang immediately lay down on the side of the raft, pushed half of the raft down, rolled up his sleeves and rowed towards the shadow little by little.
Without paddles and driven purely by two hands, the life raft moves very slowly and slides like a short-legged turtle without hind limbs.
There were no storms now, so he wasn't in a hurry. Bi Fang was able to steadily approach the shadow.
A few minutes later, the distance between the two parties got closer and closer, until they were less than two meters apart. Under the faint moonlight, Bi Fang finally saw clearly what it was.
Seaweed!
【Seaweed? Will seaweed appear here?】
[Holy shit, has fortune changed for Lao Fang? A piece of seaweed actually floated here? Is it impossible to achieve the achievement of several meals in three days? 】
[Damn, God is helping Fang Shen! 】
[Why does seaweed appear here? Don’t they all grow along the coast? Did Lao Fang say before that the water here is at least 150 meters deep? Can seaweed grow here? 】
[Isn’t it arranged by the program team? 】
[By the way, seaweed is not necessarily forbidden to be eaten, right? 】
[I think it’s okay. It’s now time. Isn’t it possible to eat the roots of turf trees? 】
The appearance of seaweed caught everyone's expectations, and various discussions arose. Some even suspected that this was an arrangement by the program team.
Bi Fang ignored the audience's reaction and wrapped his hands in a bath towel, his eyes filled with green light.
Grandma’s, it turns out to be seaweed!
"There are about a thousand kinds of algae known in the ocean. Not all of them are edible, but there are not many algae that can appear in the open sea. Among them, a common open sea algae that I know of is edible."
Bi Fang's tone was very excited. Although the moonlight was dim, he could not see clearly what kind of seaweed it was, but he strongly suspected that the seaweed that suddenly floated nearby was the kind he recognized.
Sargassum fruit capsule!
This kind of Sargassum does not grow in the open ocean. On the contrary, it grows offshore, usually in low tide zones, but it has a unique characteristic!
Easy to float!
This plant grows in the ocean in the form of a "raft", absorbing nutrients directly from the sea water. It can survive and reproduce as long as it is exposed to the sun every day. This form allows Sargassum to move everywhere as if it has legs under the influence of ocean currents.
It is not uncommon, even common, to run away, even to the ocean.
Many ships in the ocean can see some seaweed floating objects, and almost 99% of these floating objects are Sargassum!
In particular, Sargassum spores in the Sargasso Sea and the North Atlantic warm current can float very far due to the influence of the warm current.
It was not unusual to be met by Bi Fang, who was drifting in the North Atlantic.
Time comes and turns!
[Holy shit, that’s it? I’m sorry, I’m ignorant]
【You can’t stop luck even when it comes!】
【So easy to float (dog head)? 】
【Not only can it be eaten, but it can also be used as bait, right? 】
"That's right! If it's really sargassum, it can not only be eaten, but can also be used as bait!"
Speaking of this, Bi Fang couldn't help but get excited. Grandma, I have been hungry for two days and finally saw a good product. Although it is not fish, the food I can get is much better than before!
"But everyone should be careful before fishing. There may be many small crabs, shrimps and small fish that feed on seaweed growing in this floating seaweed. Some brachiopods are dark brown in color, similar to seaweed, and they also like to hide.
Inside, it’s hard to notice.”
The shadows are not big, and Bi Fang doesn't have to worry about any big fish that will scratch the life raft after being caught. There may be small fish and shrimps that can be eaten.
"Of course, it has drifted to the open sea, and it is unlikely that there are small fish and shrimps in it, but we cannot take it lightly, so don't touch it with your hands rashly. We can wear gloves, otherwise we will be cut or bitten.
It would be very troublesome.”
The more you harvest, the more calm you must be. Any injury in wilderness survival may be fatal. Even if it is just a small wound, the risk of infection is a hundred times higher than in the city!
With this idea in mind, Bi Fang wrapped his hands in a bath towel and got closer and closer to the shadow. When the distance shortened, he suddenly stretched out his hand and picked up all the large balls of seaweed!
