My Deep-sea Fishery

This is undoubtedly good news for Xiang Yang.

Although there were a lot of catches on the deck, the real valuable ones were the green-lip abalones.

Xiang Yang asked someone to help up a water tank that had been blown to the ground by the storm, and then looked down into the water tank.

Seeing this, Xiang Yang was immediately happy.

I saw that the green-lip abalones in the water tank were all firmly stuck to the wall of the water tank, and they couldn't be pulled out.

"Hey, what is this?" Xiang Yang suddenly saw a very beautiful thing in the water tank.

This thing is only five or six centimeters long, its back is dark blue, and its belly is silver-gray. On both sides of its body, there are two pairs of very beautiful wings that look like leaves.

"Is this also a nudibranch?" Fang Youqun asked.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "Not quite."

"It looks more like a sea god slug, but I can guarantee that this guy is definitely not a sea god slug." Xiang Yang said.

"Sea God slug?" Fang Youqun asked in confusion.

Xiang Yang smiled and said: "In the tropical and temperate oceans, people often see a strange bright blue creature crawling around leisurely in open places. That strange creature is the sea god slug."

Not only is the sea god slug only a few centimeters long, but it has no hard shell to protect itself. It has to be said that it is a miracle that it can survive in the sea so far.

"There is a hard shell on his body, let's call him a sea god beetle." Xiang Yang said.

"Why is it called the sea god beetle? Is it because it resembles that sea god slug?" Fang Youqun asked.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "It's not similar to Poseidon slug, but similar to Glaucus."

This time, not only Fang Youqun was puzzled, but even Chen Qingsheng was also puzzled, "Captain, what is this Glaucus? Why is it called Sea God Beetle because it resembles it?"

Xiang Yang looked at Xu Fang who was on the side, and asked with a smile: "Master Xu, do you know Glaucus?"

Xu Fang nodded, "I've heard a little bit about it."

"Then explain it to them."

"Yes, Captain."

Xu Fang looked around, and seeing everyone's ears pricked up, all focused, Xu Fang couldn't help laughing and said: "Glaucus is actually not a real thing, it's just an ancient legend."

"It is said that a long time ago, a fisherman named Glaucus saw a dying fish eat a kind of grass blade on the shore, and then slowly came back to life and jumped to the In the water, Glaucus also ate that kind of aquatic plants, and after waking up, his lower body turned into a fish, his hair turned into green seaweed, he is the sea god in Greek mythology." Xu Fang said with a smile .

"Sea God?" Chen Qingsheng scratched his head, "How could I remember it was Poseidon?"

"I don't know about that." Xu Fang shrugged.

"Maybe the versions are different." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

Xiang Yang actually doesn't know much about Greek mythology.

But Xiang Yang knew that Glaucus was indeed the sea god in Greek mythology.

Of course, Poseidon is also the god of the sea.

Compared to Glaucus, Poseidon's reputation is much louder.

Poseidon is not only one of the twelve main gods of Olympus in ancient Greek mythology, but also the god in charge of horses. It is said that he gave mankind the first horse. His mount is a golden chariot driven by a white horse. He is the brother of Zeus and Hades.

In Greek myths and legends, when Poseidon is angry, sea monsters will appear in the sea. When Poseidon swings his trident, he can easily set off huge waves, cause storms and tsunamis to sink the continent, and split the sky and the earth. Everything is smashed to pieces, and even a big earthquake can be caused.

At the same time, when Poseidon's chariot gallops across the sea, the sea will become calm again, and there will be dolphins following around.

The Greek sailors and fishermen near the Aegean Sea worshiped Poseidon very much, and the Latin name of Neptune originated from Poseidon, the god of the sea.

Fang Youqun curled his lips, "So, this Glaucus is a god killed by Poseidon."

"It's all a myth, why are you so serious." Xiang Yang laughed when he heard the words.

"Didn't you first say that this sea god beetle looks like Glaucus?" Fang Youqun objected.

Xiang Yang was taken aback when he heard the words, then smiled and said, "Yes, that's right, this bug looks very much like a sea god slug."

"The first time that Poseidon was active was discovered by a European scholar in the Atlantic Ocean in 1777. It looks very similar to the Poseidon Glaucus in the oil painting." Xiang Yang said.

As he said that, Xiang Yang grabbed the sea god beetle with his hand wearing a thick leather glove, "It's strange, how could there be a bug that looks so much like a sea god slug in Antarctica."

As far as Xiang Yang knows, Poseidon slugs like to live on mudflats in shallow seas, where the current is slow and the wind and waves are not strong.

These two creatures look so similar, and their living habits are too far apart.

The sea god beetle was caught by Xiang Yang, and immediately struggled in Xiang Yang's hand.

Not to mention, this little bug is not big, but it is not weak in strength, and it can compete with crabs.

"This is actually alive." Xiang Yang was startled in his heart, and quickly threw it back into the water tank.

"What's wrong with the life? I think this little bug looks pretty good. It's a good life. It's worth living." Fang Youqun said.

Xiang Yang glanced at Fang Youqun and said seriously: "In the ocean, the most terrifying creature is not a shark, but a completely unknown marine creature."

"What's so scary about this thing? It's not as big as one of my fingers, but I can squeeze it to death with two fingers." Fang Youqun said disdainfully.

As he said that, Fang Youqun reached into the water tank, "Watch me grab it."

Xiang Yang and Chen Qingsheng's expressions changed at the same time, and they shouted at the same time: "Stop."

Fang Youqun didn't stop. He continued to grab the sea god beetle while saying, "Don't worry, I'm wearing gloves. Even if it's poisonous, it won't be able to poison me."

Xiang Yang grabbed Fang Youqun's back collar, and pulled Fang Youqun out of the water tank.

"What are you doing? Brother Yang? I even said I was wearing gloves." Fang Youqun said quite dissatisfied.

"You're the only one wearing gloves, I'm not?" Xiang Yang stared.

"The creatures in the ocean, after millions of years of continuous evolution, do you know what kind of defense methods they have evolved, what if their teeth are so sharp that they can bite through gloves?"

"Or does this thing have an infectious virus on it?"

"Also, what if the toxin of the sea god beetle doesn't need to pass through the teeth, and it can inherit the attack like a cobra?"

"You don't know anything, but you dare to take it with your hands. I think your life is too long, kid." Xiang Yang said with a glare.

Fang Youqun was stiffened by Xiang Yang's words, and after a while he forced a smile and said, "Brother Yang, it's not as serious as you said."
