Ever since "Old Saury" started teaching Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan how to "touch the sea", his life began to get easier.
It can be said that the days when he and these boys from the capital were together around the campfire were the most comfortable days he had not experienced in many years of "touching the sea".
First of all, his fishing work immediately became much easier when he took a breather at "Hai Liuzi" twice every morning and evening.
This is not only because Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan can help him "position" on the water surface, but also help him send the "net float" filled with marine products to the shore, which saves him a lot of energy. It is also because they are with him.
Going into the sea can greatly alleviate his psychological fear.
These words are not without purpose. Although on the surface, "Hai Bangzi" seems to be a desperado who is fearless and dares to risk his life in the rough waves. But in fact, this is not the case. "Hai Bangzi" cherishes life just like ordinary people.
, under certain circumstances, they are even more timid than ordinary people.
You must know that the nature of this kind of work requires diving into the deep seabed and walking through the jagged reefs, so every time you go into the sea, you will inevitably have a fear of the unknown. And if you face the vast sea, empty beaches, and people for a long time,
It is very easy to feel powerless and insignificant in the sea.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, "Hai Bangzi" is willing to go to the sea with a few people, relying on the strength of the group to build up their courage.
Humans are group animals. As long as they have company, even though they may feel short-term fear under the dark green waves, once they rise out of the water and see the figures of their companions, all fear will disappear instantly.
The same is true for him. Even though he has been "touching" the sea all his life, he is not a hero who dares to go into the water alone. But he is a mortal after all, and "touching the sea" alone is just a helpless choice. And this kind of
The psychological pressure and burden caused by loneliness can only be suppressed, but not completely eliminated.
No matter how experienced he is and is accustomed to strong winds and waves, he still needs at least some activity on the shore. There may be a car running or a figure walking around. If the shore is deserted, then there must be a shadow of a boat swaying in the sea.
, even a seabird flying.
This is his final bottom line. If there is nothing in all this, and the shore and the sea are completely desolate and blank, then he will be too scared to go into the water alone.
But now he is better. Ever since Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan accompanied him into the sea, he has no such psychological problems at all. Every time he goes into the water, he is extremely calm and collected, and his fishing efficiency has naturally been greatly increased, even when diving.
I am no longer short of breath and tired, and I feel as if I am ten years younger.
Needless to say, these are significant effects of mental relief and relaxation.
Secondly, in this day and age, everyone in and outside the city is busy with the revolution, and it is hard to buy anything because of the revolution. Generally, "Hai Peng Zi" only brings some flatbreads, a few heads of garlic, and a bottle of water when he comes to "Peng Hai".
But Hong Yanwu and the others seemed to have great supernatural powers, and their resources were richer than he imagined.
These guys from the capital not only have gasoline, fresh water, dried noodles, sesame oil, seasonings, tobacco and alcohol, tea, bedding, mosquito nets, mosquito coils, berberine, flashlights, and raincoats, but they even got several kilograms of high-end candies.
.
It was something that both adults and children were greedy for, and he hadn't seen it for several years. Watching these kids eat it without any distress, and even pretended it was to add calories, which made him...
Both surprised and distressed.
However, these boys are quite generous and respect him from the bottom of their hearts. No matter what they give, they will take the initiative to give him a share first. He doesn't want to take it or not. They insist that a disciple should be filial to his master.
So during these days, thanks to their blessing, he not only smoked good cigarettes, drank good tea and wine, ate noodles with fragrant sesame oil, and covered himself with mosquito nets to avoid being bitten by sea mosquitoes.
I also got a lot of high-end candies for free.
But while he felt sad in his heart, he really couldn't bear to waste such good things like them. He secretly kept all the candies he got, planning to take them back to his wife to taste, and then send some to his daughter.
In addition, the child named "Xiaobaizi" is actually very capable despite his young age, and his slingshot shooting skills are simply amazing.
In addition to sleeping, this child is always busy working all day long. Not only does he take care of chores such as collecting firewood, cooking, and boiling water by himself, but he also catches several birds every day.
Everyone added a meat dish out of thin air.
Moreover, this kid also has a very discerning eye. In their Beijing dialect, it is called "a discerning person with a good price".
Every day, as long as a few of them climbed to the shore from the sea, "Little Baizi" would have lit the bonfire and boiled the water. Then the child would sit by the bonfire obediently, like a kitten or puppy.
Watch them warming themselves over the fire.
As a result, people like him, who are not fond of smiling by nature, can only smile affectionately at this child and feel a kind of warmth in his heart.
In short, bringing this kid to the sea is like bringing a hard-working son. This kid will do every job well and in an orderly manner, and he will serve you comfortably no matter what he does.
Finally, I have to say that Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan, two boys from the capital, are really good at learning "touching the sea".
These two chicks, who had just hatched out of their shells, had grown some feathers in just a few days under the strong sea breeze and fierce waves.
First, what he didn't expect was that they understood and mastered what he taught extremely quickly.
Actions and techniques such as "treading water on the spot", "swimming with two legs", and "struck mengzi" are not easy for ordinary people to do. Not to mention that they easily passed the level. The key is in the use of one breath after diving. They also
It was so outstanding that it simply exceeded his imagination. This is the most important factor that determines the ability of a "sea bumper".
It should be said that in terms of natural living conditions, when people are on the ground, they often do not have a deep understanding of the importance of taking a breath, because breathing and panting are very natural things. There is no need for others to teach you, and you don’t need to hold it in intentionally.
Wait, wait.
But as a "sea bumper", that's not possible in the underwater world. It really depends on one breath.
Just with this breath, he plunges down like a "strong man". Just with this breath, he sneaks on the bottom of the sea to find "prey". Just with this breath, he works underwater. Just with this breath, he returns from the bottom of the sea to the surface.
In other words, this tone is not only related to how much "Hai Bangzi" can get what he wants under the sea, but more importantly, it is related to life.
But although this breath is so important, how well it can be used varies from person to person. Since everyone has different physiques and abilities, the length of holding the breath is also different.
For example, when he was in his prime, he would always be the last one to come up, which lasted about five minutes. Everyone commented on him that he could "sleep" on the seabed. Naturally, he harvested items from the seabed far more than others.
many.
And the reason why he can do this, in addition to his good physique, is that he can control his own energy volume more precisely.
For example, during the dive, he stipulated that he could only use one-third of his air volume, which was strictly calculated. He had to ensure that two-thirds of his air volume was working underwater in order to do it in an orderly and sequential manner.
Do what you need to do and get back to the water in time.
Otherwise, firstly, if it is not penetrated deeply, or if it has just been penetrated and cannot do the work, it will have to come out immediately.
In addition, he also has a very useful luck trick, which is to use his belly to push outwards at first, and then gradually shrink it as time goes by. This can temporarily relieve the exhaustion and prolong the time.
However, although this trick and this technique may seem easy to say, it is not that difficult to actually do it. Because both of these tricks are inseparable from people's will, only those who are most willing to suffer can learn them.
You have to know how to do it, you can do it.
What made him particularly gratified was that both Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were similar to him in terms of physical fitness and ability to endure hardships. So they used their breath ability to quickly catch up with him when he was young.
Logically speaking, "haibengzi", whether it is "thorn pot" or "haihong" (jargon, scientific name is mussel, also called mussel, and the dried product is called mussel, which is a kind of bivalve)
Molluscs, with dark brown shells, live on seaside rocks), it is just like an adult hitting a child, it is too easy. For a real "sea bumper", if anyone touches the "thorn pot" and "sea red", it will definitely be considered a bargain.
.
But how do Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan fish for "thorn pots" and "sea reds"? Even if they have been working as real "sea bumpers" for many years, their efficiency is far less than them.
Not to mention anything else, now the two of them just need to dive headlong into the water at a depth of five to six meters. They will have to remove all the "thorn pot" on the reef at once. Even if they completely remove the "sea pot" on the reef, they will not stop.
"Red", they don't need to prick it a third time.
So even though they are currently only fishing for some mainland goods that are within easy reach, this level of underwater luck is already beyond the reach of many real "sea bumpers".
Secondly, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan do possess miraculous real kung fu. Their skin is so thick that they seem to be immune to injury.
Originally he didn't believe it when they told him, but since then he has seen with his own eyes that these two boys can fish for "thorn pot" with their bare hands and without gloves, and casually step on "oysters" (jargon lingo) on the rocks with their bare feet.
, whose scientific name is oyster, is a common shellfish in the ocean. It is called "oyster" in southern Guangdong, "oyster house" in southern Fujian, and sea oyster by fishermen in the north. After jumping around, he had no choice but to believe it.
Because all "sea bumpers" have experience, even though they have thick skin and old flesh like fish scales, whether they are "piercing the gangsters" or moving underwater, they must be careful and move slowly, in order to prevent
When it came into contact with the sharp oyster shell, it was bloody and the flesh was turned outward.
After being cut by a shell on a reef like this, not only will the wound be deep, but you will also be unaware of it for a while. It will not be until the blood starts to flow that the whole body will suddenly cramp in pain. Some people have even been scratched on the bottom of the sea.
The abdominal cavity was opened, and even the intestines came out. It can be said that this is one of the dangers that "Hai Bangzi" often encounters.
But since these two boys have such abilities, what do they have to fear? They are not allowed to run according to their temper underwater.
Once you get to the deep water, if you don't have to worry about getting hurt, your efficiency will definitely improve dramatically, which is like breathing more breath.
Even he couldn't imagine what kind of refreshing feeling it would be like to plunder the harvest without any scruples.
Things in the world are always like this. It seems that you can think of it, but you don't expect it. It is really unbearable.
Although he felt from the beginning that Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan would be good materials for "Hai Bangzi", he still could not expect that their talents, understanding and conditions would be so good.
You must know that in just half a month, their ability to enter the water has almost surpassed that of real "sea bumpers".
If this continues, in about a month, the two of them may become the most famous figures in the entire northwest coast.
If this is not a genius, then what is a genius?
It is destined that they should be engaged in the business of "Hai Bangzi"!
Well, these two boys can no longer be measured by common sense. Perhaps, we can take them to the deep water area of the "Full Moon Sea" to try...
