148: Teach the sea urchin to catch fish

He threw two balls of Secret Bait into the sea, and the Orcas, like dogs catching frisbees, quickly leaped out of the water and bit the Secret Bait.

"Bang~"

The two big guys falling into the sea made a huge sound, very much like a helicopter crashing into the surface, heavy and powerful.

Looking at how happy they were, Chen Xiangbei even felt like going down and playing with them.

Just then, an interesting idea suddenly flashed through his mind!

He nimbly leaped onto the railing of the fishing boat, and then, without hesitation, he jumped, plunging into the sea as quickly and gracefully as a fish entering the water.

In an instant, water splashed everywhere, like a blooming white lotus, shimmering with crystal-clear light under the sunlight.

When the two Orcas saw the two-legged creature appear in the sea, they excitedly swam towards him. Chen Xiangbei didn't hide but waited there for them to come over.

After the Orcas got close to him, they gently nudged his hand with their slippery heads.

Chen Xiangbei reached out and stroked their heads in response, then accelerated and quickly sank towards the seabed, not forgetting to turn back and signal for the two big guys to follow.

The Orcas thought this meant they were going to play together, so they accelerated and followed.

Upon reaching the seabed, Chen Xiangbei stopped and gestured wildly at the Orcas with his hands, which left the two big guys confused.

Realizing that he couldn't communicate with the Orcas using human methods, he thought of another way. He quickly swam towards a school of small fish.

Then he blocked the small fish's path from the front. After realizing there was danger ahead, the small fish changed direction and fled, but Chen Xiangbei quickly swam up again, continuing to block their path.

After blocking them several times, Chen Xiangbei waved at the Orcas.

At this moment, the two Orcas were already getting excited, thinking: Wow, isn't this the game we often play? It turns out the two-legged creature also likes to play this way, how great!

The two Orcas quickly swam over and joined in the围堵 of the small fish.

With the two of them joining, the small fish were completely helpless and didn't know what to do, darting left and right within a certain range but unable to get out.

Seeing that the two Orcas were getting familiar with it, Chen Xiangbei swam closer, patted their heads, and told them to stop and not围堵 the small fish anymore.

Then he led them to the coral reef, drove out a Giant Grouper weighing over thirty kilograms that was hiding inside, and then continued to pursue and block it, controlling it within a certain range.

When the two Orcas performed well, Chen Xiangbei would feed them a piece of Secret Bait, repeating this process.

The two Orcas realized that if they围堵 well, they would get tasty snack rewards, so they started to perform with effort.

Slowly, Chen Xiangbei drove over more and more large fish, and their cooperation with the Orcas got better and better, then he quietly withdrew from the围堵 team.

He watched their performance from the side, occasionally feeding them a bite of Secret Bait as encouragement.

Immediately after, he used hand gestures to signal them to continue the围堵. This gesture was one he had been making during their interaction just now, and the Orcas knew what to do when they saw it.

Chen Xiangbei quickly surfaced, returned to the fishing boat, picked up his fishing rod, attached the bait, and cast towards the location of the school of large fish being围堵.

Before long, the tempting fish bait appeared in the middle of the school. Although the fish school was currently facing a situation where they couldn't break through, they also realized there was no life-threatening danger.

Therefore, when the Secret Bait appeared, they couldn't resist the temptation and started to爭搶.

However, the Orcas looked at the fish bait and had no intention of going up to爭搶, because Chen Xiangbei had already made them distinguish between ordinary Secret Bait and enhanced chum.

They ate enhanced chum, so this bait mixed in normal proportions didn't have much attraction, so they continued their "task". Indeed, they often played this way, otherwise, where would the title "Sea Lizi" come from!

A strong Giant Grouper snatched the fish bait and was successfully pulled up by Chen Xiangbei.

This was a Giant Grouper weighing nearly 100 catties, which they had just driven out of the coral reef, and now it was caught again.

He dragged this Giant Grouper onto the boat from the stern and put it into the live well with the giant Giant Grouper to raise them together.

Then he turned back and continued fishing.

An hour passed like this, and most of the large fish that were being围堵 were caught, with not many left.

Chen Xiangbei put down the fishing rod in his hand and leaped again, jumping into the sea, and quickly swam towards the seabed.

He swam to the side of the Orcas and saw that they were still chasing a few not-so-large snapper, so he signaled them to stop, then took out two slightly larger balls of Secret Bait in his hands and let them come to eat.

Seeing the fragrant Secret Bait, the Orca brothers immediately swam towards him. Chen Xiangbei threw the bait in his hands into the water, and they accurately swallowed it.

Chen Xiangbei patted their heads and interacted with them for a bit, then used hand gestures to signal that they could leave, that he was going home.

Although the Orcas didn't understand everything, they also knew that the two-legged creature was leaving. They rubbed their heads against Chen Xiangbei's chest, expressing their reluctance to part.

Chen Xiangbei was also a bit reluctant, but it was already 4 PM, and he had to rush back to sell these fish, otherwise, overnight fish wouldn't survive, and the price would be greatly reduced.

He took out two more balls of Secret Bait, fed them to them respectively, and then pushed the Orcas' bodies to make them leave.

The two Orcas slowly swam away into the distance, turning back every few strokes.

Looking at their receding figures, Chen Xiangbei also sighed with emotion. If he had the chance, he would definitely take in these two big guys. After all, where else could he find such intelligent helpers!

Watching the Orcas' figures completely disappear into the vast sea, Chen Xiangbei began to surface and return to the boat.

Looking at the two full live wells of fish, his mood was beyond good!

The fish just caught were of various species, rich and colorful, and all were relatively large.

There were True Snapper, Black Snapper, Threadfin, Turbot, Sea Bass, and Giant Grouper.

The prices of these fish varied, some high and some low, but the advantage was that they were all quite large. Among them, the most abundant catch was still Giant Grouper; just those two large ones were worth more than the other types of fish!

A Giant Grouper around 250 catties and one nearly 100 catties should sell for a good amount of money. The larger the size of this stuff, the higher the price. Currently, the market price for Giant Grouper is between 60-180.

This is still the price for common sizes; the price for uncommon wild Giant Grouper over 100 catties is not calculated this way.
