It's not that he doesn't want to get this coral up, but he knows that this is a national second-level protected animal. If he really takes it back, it will bring countless troubles to his boss.

When Ma Hua turned around and found that many crew members were gathered in one sea area, he also came here and found that there were countless conches in this sea area.

These conchs had different shapes, many of which he had never seen before in the short video. The guy immediately became interested and began to look for the conchs he thought were more beautiful among the conchs.

While Ma Hua was searching among the conches, he was attracted by a jade-like conch.

I saw that the conch was in the shape of an involute, with thin spiral teeth on both the outer and inner lips, and the outer membrane was very thin. The surface is coated with another layer of enamel and the surface is extremely smooth.

The surface of the screw is covered with various spots and patterns, and the mouth of the screw is narrow and long.

“Good-looking, really good-looking”

This was Ma Hua's first reaction when he saw the snail.

He quickly reached out and put what he thought was the most beautiful conch into his net bag.

"Go back and ask the boss, this conch should be quite famous, but why haven't you seen it in the short video again?"

While this guy was thinking about it, he started looking for the next target.

The crew searched here for 30 minutes, and everyone returned to the boat one after another. As soon as Ma Hua surfaced, he shouted:

"Is the boss back? Is the boss back?"

The crew members were all used to this guy yelling, so no one took his words to heart.

When Ma Hua returned to the deck, he took off his diving equipment, raised what he thought was the most beautiful conch in his hand over his head, and then looked around for it.

"What are you looking for?"

Yu Hongbo asked after giving this guy a kick.

"Are you looking for the boss? Look, who among you knows this conch?"

Everyone saw the conch in his hand and thought it was very beautiful, but no one could name the conch.

"Is it possible that the captain will come back so soon? It's not the first day you've been diving with him. It's not the last time he's come back. You'd better be quiet."

Wang Husheng said while replenishing fresh water.

"The boss is quite powerful. Did you see that people almost don't need any equipment when going to sea, unlike us? Hey! This person is really incomparable to others."

Ji Yongfu, who has the best diving ability among the crew, is also pursuing him.

Speaking of Ji Yongfu, let alone among these crew members, even he was a top-notch diver when he was in the Navy, and he was only a little short of the level of a frogman.

At first, Xu Hang introduced him to join Ye Yuan's ship as a crew member, but he was resistant in his heart. After all, he had great diving skills. Even if he recovered to the right place, there were still many places vying for him.

But because I didn’t want to leave the team I had lived with for three years, I came to Ye Yuan.

After arriving, he secretly competed with Ye Yuan several times. After seeing Ye Yuan's talent in diving, he gave up the idea of ​​competing with his boss.

"The boss is just a pervert and cannot be compared."

Ma Hua really admires Ye Yuan, so he has great admiration for Ye Yuan.

While the crew was still discussing on the deck, the boss they called a capable boss was now encountering a big or small trouble.

Ye Yuan is now in the deep sea at a depth of more than 2,000 meters.

Less than 50 meters away from him, there was a giant tadpole-shaped creature staring at him.

This huge "tadpole" is 5 meters long.

When Ye Yuan saw it for the first time, he recognized the origin of this guy. He couldn't help it, who made this guy look so distinctive?

This guy's scientific name is the swallowing eel, also known as the broad-throated fish, the swallowing eel, the pharyngeal eel, etc. It is one of the ray-finned fishes, the order Cystobranchidae, and is a rare deep-sea fish.

Among the ten weirdest creatures of the ocean, this guy has a place.

Its most striking feature is its large mouth.

This eel has no movable upper jaw, and its huge lower jaw is loosely attached to the head.

It never closes its mouth, and when it opens its mouth wide, it can easily swallow creatures larger than it. From this it got the name "Umbrella Mouth Devourer" in the West.

In Chinese records, it is called a swallowing eel.

The prey swallowed by it is just like the fish swallowed by the pelican, and is put into the bag in the lower jaw, so some people in the West also call it the pelican eel.

This eel has no ribs and its stomach is very stretchable, allowing it to expand to accommodate prey.

But don’t misunderstand that it mainly eats large creatures. In fact, its main food is slow-swimming small fish and shrimps, and it only eats a few when it eats a big meal.

Swallowing eels live in the deep seas of all the world's oceans, and their habitat depth is about 1,000 meters. Some data say that they live at a depth of 1,500-2,750 meters, but what is certain is that the deep sea is their home.

Since the deep ocean is very dark and vision is not important, their eyes are very small.

This eel also has a long, whip-like tail. Those broad-throated fish brought to the surface by trawl nets are often found to have their tails tied into several knots.

At this moment, the swallowing eel was like an old man, slowly swimming towards Ye Yuan. There was no sign of an attack, but his strange appearance gave people a terrifying feeling.

Ye Yuan boldly swam to the side of this guy, and all his senses were locked on this guy. If it had the slightest intention of attacking him, Ye Yuan would not hesitate to take him into the space first.

After all, judging from the appearance, this swallowing eel is still within Ye Yuanke's income range.

The moment Ye Yuan's hand touched the body of the swallowing eel, the guy did not react excessively, which made Ye Yuan's heart relax a lot.

Feeling the slimy touch on your hand is no different from stroking an ordinary eel.

The swallowing eel seemed not to see Ye Yuan, and was still swimming slowly in one direction, and from time to time, some small fish and shrimp would accidentally enter his open mouth.

Ye Yuan felt funny in his heart. He wondered if it was because of the deep sea. Couldn't these little fish see the road? It has all entered other people's mouths, and it is still swimming forward as usual.

He followed the swallowing eel and swam for a certain distance. He really wanted to take this guy into the space, but in the end he gave up after thinking about it.

Looking at the time, I saw that I had been out for a long time, so I reluctantly patted this guy who looked fierce but was actually a bit naive, turned around and swam back in the direction he came from.

Although I didn't pick up any treasures this time, it was worth it to get up close to the rare swallowing eels.

You must know that this guy is rarely discovered by humans. Until now, not many scientists can tell his living habits. Many of the introductions in the information are more or less guesswork.
