Chapter 775 774. Snake Island (35)

Whether breadfruit is a vegetable or a fruit is not clear to Li Du, but it is delicious raw or roasted.

Among them, he thinks that it is better to eat baked, it does have the aroma of bread, and the taste is similar, fluffy and soft.

There are many small seeds in its fruit, and the seeds cannot be eaten directly from the roasted fruit. Brother Wolf asked everyone to collect them, and then he put them into the fruit for stir-fry.

The fried seeds have the aroma of sesame and can be squeezed for oil or crushed and eaten.

After eating the meal, Li Du was ready to dive into the water again to work.

Before going into the water, he released small flying insects to look for Hei Jinbao. This time he saw an underwater reef, and there were many rope-like black shadows shaking around the reef.

Seeing these black shadows, he didn't think much about them. He thought they were kelp and aquatic plants clinging to the surrounding rocks. He had seen many of these things in the water these days.

Everyone who dives knows that you should avoid contact with seaweed and algae at the bottom of the sea. Once you get entangled by them, it will be very dangerous. They are very resilient. Without the help of suitable tools, even if you have a companion, being entangled is also life-threatening.

But there may be more black gold abalones around the reef, so Li Du still has to go and see, if there are many big black gold abalones around, he has to take a risk.

This is the difficulty of fishing for black gold abalone. Working underwater is always risky.

When the little flying insect flew closer, Li Du shivered subconsciously.

He is not a timid person. After going to the island, he saw poisonous snakes, giant centipedes and giant frogs, and he thought his nerves were strong enough.

But the scene in front of him still frightened him. He saw that there were a large number of sea snakes around the reef. At a glance, there might be hundreds or even thousands of them.

Many sea snakes are swimming in the water, their bodies are twisting and colorful, which brought a huge visual impact to Li Du!

Seeing this scene, he understood the meaning of an idiom: a group of snakes dancing wildly!

Li Du is not the kind of person who is very afraid of snakes, so he didn't panic when he saw poisonous snakes on the vines, but seeing hundreds of poisonous snakes at once, he was really frightened.

All sea snakes are venomous snakes, and these snakes swim freely in the water, obviously all sea snakes.

He didn't find many sea snakes in the sea before. He thought that there were snakes only on the island, but not in the water. He didn't expect that there were snakes in the water, but these snakes gathered for some reason.

The small flying insects avoided the snakes and shuttled around the reef, and then Li Du noticed that these snakes were always around the reef, and many of them hovered directly on the reef.

Except here, there are no sea snakes in other places.

But the appearance of the sea snakes aroused his vigilance, and he returned to the crowd and told them: "Don't go into the water easily, there are many sea snakes in the sea here."

Da Ao didn't care much, and said: "Boss, compared to land snakes, sea snakes are the least aggressive. As long as you don't provoke them, they will never bite."

This is another characteristic of sea snakes, that is, they do not attack creatures that are larger than them.

The reason is simple, sea snakes, like land venomous snakes, eat by devouring, not biting.

In order to survive, sea snakes will only attack food, and they will not attack indiscriminately unless they are provoked and their survival is threatened.

Sea snakes are limited by their size. Their food is small fish, shrimps and small insects. Humans are too big to swallow them with an arm.

Therefore, divers are not afraid of sea snakes, don’t move after spotting sea snakes, don’t provoke them, at most they will take a curious look and will not come up to attack.

Li Du also understands this common sense, but he is still worried about accidents, so when there is nothing to do, no one is allowed to go into the water, especially children, let alone go into the water.

Compared with the snake in the sea, Brother Lang and Da Ao are more worried about the situation on the island.

When Li Du and Hans went into the water to catch black gold abalone in the afternoon, they explored around the island, and found that there were many snakes on the island, it was like a snake island.

Fortunately, snakes are not wolves. They don't feel threatened and won't attack. The two sides met many times, but they lived in peace.

But it should be evening, they can't leave, they can't stay overnight on the yacht, can they? There are too many people to live on the yacht.

Li Du released small flying insects to search the surrounding area, and indeed encountered a few snakes, but most of them stayed on vines or other vegetation, and rarely came to the beach and reef.

The little flying insect continued to go deeper, and the scene that made his scalp tingle appeared again: there was an undulating hill in the middle of the island, and there were stones everywhere, and between a few stones, he encountered a group of snakes again!

This time there were more snakes than on the reefs in the sea, and he was terrified to see it.

However, he paid attention to it, and the snake group did not intend to move elsewhere. Occasionally, some snakes would leave the snake group and enter the water, but they basically took a fixed route.

There are sea snakes passing by constantly on this route, like going to a market, the number is astonishing.

In addition, they don't run around casually, as if there are some rules governing them.

Li Du arranged for Brother Lang and several people to keep watch at night, then found some dry firewood on the island, and lit a bonfire around the campsite.

Snakes are cold-blooded animals and hate flames, so as long as the campfire is not extinguished, they will not come near it.

One night, Li Du didn't sleep well, and got up several times to check the situation.

Horror movie scenes such as the plague of pythons and the battle of poisonous snakes always appear in his mind, for fear that these sea snakes will attack them in groups.

After all, the island is considered the territory of the sea snakes, and they rushed in rashly. If the sea snakes are not happy, conflicts will easily arise between the two sides.

Fortunately, it turned out that he was thinking too much. Until dawn, not a single snake appeared around the beach. Because of the existence of the bonfire, even the poisonous centipede and other insects that appeared during the day did not show up.

They still ate breadfruit in the morning, and then Li Du made a soup for everyone, which was made from bread leaves. The soup made from this kind of leaves is very delicious. Just add some meat to enhance the taste, and just add some salt.

After breakfast, he and Hans went into the water. It was the same as what we saw yesterday. The snakes were fixed in several places, and the temperature was high during the day, so they were even more motionless.

In this way, there was no conflict between the two parties. Li Du and Hans could freely pick black gold abalone underwater, as long as they warned in advance to avoid the snakes.

During the period, they encountered sea snakes a few times, just like common sense, the sea snakes had no interest in them, and they would not even approach them.

There are a lot of black gold abalones around the island. It may be that those people from Cape Barron Island don’t know that there are black gold abalones here, and they have never come to collect them, so the resources are abundant.

Li Du and Hans have achieved unprecedented gains here, and they can easily harvest hundreds of black gold abalones in one day!

In addition to the large number of sea snakes, Li Du gradually fell in love with this island. It is easy to harvest here, the scenery is good, and there is a lot of food. It is more like a paradise than Cape Barron Island.
