It was true that the bigger the seafood, the more valuable it was.
However, this did not include the giant squid that was more than 20 meters long.
"I'm going down to take a look at that humpback whale. Although it's our first time meeting it, they've saved us.”
Zhang Xiao said.
"Yes, yes." Zhou Shuyi was also filled with emotions. She had seen some news on the internet about killer whales and humpback whales taking the initiative to rescue humans when human fishing boats or divers were in danger. Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she was naturally very touched.
The back of the male humpback whale was slapped by the giant squid, and the skin on its entire back cracked. Blood flowed out from its back, and Zhang Xiao's heart ached when he saw it.
"By the way, Brother Xiao, what about the whale shark?”Zhou Shuyi asked curiously.
"It's fine. Whale sharks have the same temperament as humpback whales. They won't hurt humans. I'll go and take a look at its injuries later.”
Generally, when divers were at the bottom of the sea, they would not be killed or injured by the whale shark unless they were accidentally hit by its fins or tail. Zhang Xiao was absolutely sure that he would not be accidentally hit by the whale shark's tail, so he was not worried that the whale shark would hurt him at all.
"Tame? "Why did it look so terrifying and ferocious just now?" Zhou Shuyi still felt a little scared.
Zhang Xiao explained," That's because the giant squid has a large amount of astaxins in its body, and the giant squid also wants to prey on this whale shark and devour the astaxins in its body."”
Astaxin was a very important substance for these marine beasts. If there was a battle between these beasts, it would definitely be because of astaxin.
Zhang Xiao put on his diving suit, jumped into the sea, and swam toward the humpback whale.
When the male humpback whale saw Zhang Xiao, it gently flapped its fins and almost stopped itself on the surface of the sea, allowing Zhang Xiao to climb onto its back.
Zhang Xiao checked the wound of the male humpback whale.
Fortunately, although the wound looked hideous and terrifying, it was actually just a superficial wound. Even the thick fat did not break open.
Zhang Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this. She asked Zhou Shuyi to throw two boxes of squid down to the whale as snacks to express her gratitude.
Then, Zhang Xiao swam toward the huge whale shark.
Whale sharks were very magical creatures. When they opened their bloody mouths full of sharp teeth, they could even swallow a killer whale in one bite.
But in fact, most of the whale shark's teeth were not sharp weapons for hunting or fighting.
As long as it did not encounter giant squids or be attacked by other marine creatures, it was usually extremely docile. When a whale was alone, it liked to float on the water surface and bask in the sun leisurely.
The injuries on this whale shark were much more serious than those on the humpback whale.
The wounds were all over the place, looking hideous and terrifying.
Fortunately, they were only superficial wounds. Compared to the whale shark's huge body, these huge wounds were like a human accidentally being scratched by a can. With time, they would heal naturally.
On the other hand, its body was densely covered with barnacles, and Zhang Xiao did not feel good looking at it.
After that, Zhang Xiao climbed back onto the boat and said to Zhou Shuyi,"That whale shark has a lot of barnacles on its body. Let's bring the net bag together and clean up some of those barnacles, shall we?？？”
"Hey, why do you need to clean the barnacles?”
"Yes, yes, but it's indeed quite uncomfortable to watch.”
"Wow, the host is indeed a person who knows how to repay kindness!!”
"These sea creatures are so friendly and loving."
"This is the harmony between man and nature!!”
Zhang Xiao smiled and explained," In fact, whale sharks are not as active as humpback whales. They often charge into the waves, but they also cross the ocean and often appear at the intersection of ocean currents.”
"Although the barnacles on its body are not as fat as the barnacles on humpback whales, they are still very rare seafood delicacies. The meat is much fatter than the barnacles on the reefs on the coast.”
The audience's eyes lit up when they heard Zhang Xiao's words. Now they knew that barnacles were also a delicacy?？？
"There are many types of barnacles, and their prices vary. The common barnacles had a hard shell on their bodies. They looked like shells, but they were actually arthropods.”
"The most expensive barnacles are the goose neck barnacles. This is a relatively common species by the sea. The reason why it is expensive is that it is very difficult to collect.“
"The barnacles attached to whale sharks are usually cylindrical barnacles. Barnacles were also common on the reefs by the sea. However, the barnacles on the reefs by the sea were not as plump as those on the whale sharks.”
"The barnacles 'body posture is very strange. Usually, their heads are at the bottom, and the bottom of their bodies are facing outwards. They can extend their heads into the sea.”
Zhang Xiao immediately swam to the whale shark's side.
