Su Jing picked up huge shells and looked back and forth. It is about 25 centimeters in length, about five kilograms. It can be taken by two hands. The shell is thick and looks like a dish. The left shell is slightly raised, the right shell is flat, and the front ear is slightly raised. The ear processes disappear into a rounded shape. The shell surface is brown, the top scale of the shell is tight, and the scale layer on the trailing edge of the shell is free.

“This seems to be pinctada maxima.” Su Jing looks more and more eyes bright, pinctada maxima is also known as the big pearl mother shell, white snail pearl shell, is a tropical, subtropical ocean bivalve shellfish, in China is the South China Sea unique pearl shellfish species. Its pearl reserves account for about 90% of the total reserves of all kinds of pearls in Hainan Province. The pearls produced are large in size, good in color and high in price. They are precious decorations and medicinal ingredients, which are very popular in the international pearl market. High economic value.

However, due to the small number and high value, it was classified as a national level II protected animal and was banned.

“Little Hu, where did you get this pinctada maxima?” Su Jing asked, he didn’t want to break this pinctada maxima to see if there were any pearls in it, because he didn’t want to kill it, after all is the national level II Protect the animals. I heard that some people have skillful skills, they can open the shell to remove the pearls, and the shells can survive. But that kind of technique is undoubtedly as difficult as surgery. Su Jing does not think that level. Moreover, the wild shells have a great chance of nurturing pearls. The possibility of pearls in this shell is no more than 1%.

“On there.” Orca turned and yelled at the open sea.

“Take me there.” Su Jing took the net bag and the goggles and jumped onto Orca’s back. Orca drove Su Jing through the waves and swam for about 20 minutes, away from the Su Family Village coast. An uninhabited island, this Sea Territory has many small islands that have not been developed.

When I was about three hundred meters from the uninhabited island, Orca called out Su Jing, then plunged into the sea and dive quickly. Even with Su Jing’s physical fitness, I quickly felt the chest compression and was very uncomfortable. . People are not fish, and it is difficult to withstand the rapid changes in water pressure.

“Slow down.” Su Jing hurriedly pats Orca and squeezed out two words in a breath. Orca, this slows down, slowly dive, ten meters, fifteen meters, two ten meters… The average person 10 meters has felt the eardrum tingling, breathing difficulties, some professional divers can dive 15 meters, even 20 meters . The limit of dive is the limit of people’s resistance to water pressure, and it is also the limit against the physiological function of the body.

2000 1 month, Cuban Francisco Ferreras, in the absence of an air bottle, only through their own lung capacity to adjust the breathing breath, in the Brother Xi Xi Bay set 162 meters free diving record.

Su Jing’s current physical fitness is definitely far more than ordinary people, so he slowly dive to more than 20 meters. He still doesn’t feel much. He has been to the seabed of 50 meters. He just feels a little uncomfortable.

Su Jing looked through the goggles to the seabed and found that the seabed is a geological geological geological, with a few seabed plants, a lot of pinctada maxima, some crawling, some are dead, lying quietly on the seabed.

Su Jing directed Orca close to the seabed and opened a huge pinctada maxima in front. It was empty and turned over several times. Finally, I saw a pearl with a diameter of about 10 mm lying inside. Unfortunately, the naked eye can be seen. It is not very round and the color is average.

Su Jing continued to rummage, and he couldn’t help but breathe on the surface of Shanghai. Then he came down again. The pearls one after another were found by him. The mid-grade quality was good or bad, and some should be worth a few thousand. Even on the million.

“Wow, it’s so big.” Su Jing suddenly saw a shell, more than 30 centimeters long, which allowed Orca to swim over and open it, suddenly his eyes widened and a white pearl was lying inside. More than fifteen millimeters, and very round, full of luster, can not see a trace of sputum, although Su Jing is not very knowledgeable, but also can see that the value of this pearl is absolutely not low.

Su Jing rummaged for a while, rummaging through the nearby pinctada maxima and found 50-60 pearls. In addition to the flawless one, there are more than a dozen qualities, others It is very general.

“Go, go everywhere.”

Su Jing didn’t go back right away, let Orca take it, shuttle in the seabed, and see the seabed through the goggles. Although he was at the beach, he didn’t dive so deep. He was free to play in the deep sea like this. once.

Su Jing can see seabed a variety of corals, seaweeds, fish, shellfish, crabs, Seabed World can be described with bizarre, a strange strange, once Su Jing accidentally hit a cluster of coral, I did not expect that The coral suddenly moved, and then a black ink sprayed out. It turned out to be an octopus camouflage.

Su Jing encountered something strange and strange shells, blood corals and the like, and then put it into the net bag. This time, I didn’t want to sell it. After all, I couldn’t get a few dollars, but I wanted to take it back to my home collection.

Su Jing still thought that seabed is not a lot of ancient shipwrecks. If he can find a ship filled with ceramics, gold and silver jewels, then he will make a big profit, but unfortunately the wreckage has not found one.

“en? That fish is…”

Su Jing suddenly noticed a fish, a bit like a kind of expensive fish, but unfortunately did not see it, then saw it into the coral reef.

Su Jing directed Orca to swam quickly and squeezed into a piece of coral. The fish continued to hide, but Su Jing saw it clearly. It was indeed a humphead wrasse with a high raised forehead, like Napoleon’s hat. Therefore, it is called “Napoleon”.

Humphead wrasse is a wrasse species, the largest coral fish with the longest lifespan, and can live for more than 30 years. It has long been traded as an economic fish. It is very famous and delicious. However, due to its small quantity and high price, one kg humphead wrasse can be sold to 200USD, and a fish lip can be sold to 300USD.

However, studies in most regions have shown that the population of humphead wrasse is gradually decreasing due to commercial trade, and its sharp decline has once reached as high as 90%. Many juveniles are caught when they are not at the reproductive age, resulting in fewer and fewer adult fish that can be propagated. Misconduct in the fishing process threatens not only the survival of species, but also the fragile coral reef ecosystem.

Humphead wrasse is listed as an endangered species in the 2004 International Union for Conservation of Nature, at the 2004 CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) conference in 10, HumpX, humphead Wrasse is (listed in CITES Appendix II and is strictly protected by the CITES Convention.

“Hey, it’s an endangered species.”

Su Jing still doesn’t break the law because of the big interest. Don’t look at the humphead wrasse. Many people only know that humphead wrasse is delicious, but forget that humphead wrasse itself is also an ornamental fish.

Su Jing controls Orca to shuttle through the coral reefs, because Orca has a large head and can only pick up large gaps. 4 5 Humphead wrasse is found in the coral reefs. The size is different, the small is a few pounds, and the big one is a dozen. Ten pounds.

“I am going to go, that is also humphead wrasse?”

Su Jing suddenly saw a huge silhouette, his eyes wide open, and directed Orca to swam quickly.
