Chapter 421: 【Salvage Tridacina】
At this time, Yang Yong was very excited, just like when he went hunting in Alaska, but this time it was a little different, hunting in the sea. And the prey can't run or camouflage, and the people waiting to fish it out of the sea, although Yang Yong's position is near the sea, the water depth is no more than 20 meters, but if you want to take a weight of hundreds of kilograms from the sea It is not an easy task to fish a giant clam from the sea.
And the silk feet of the clam has grown for hundreds of years, it can be said that it is tougher than the steel wire, not to mention that this clam is really too long. The shells on both sides have been stuck in the reef, and it is really not easy to get it out. Fortunately, although the Zhang Lanhao is small, it has all the internal organs, and all kinds of equipment are readily available.
So when it was discovered that the triton was stuck in the middle of the reef, the crew began to look for a variety of tools, including hydraulic pliers, as well as primitive tools such as crowbars. The most bizarre tools are actually a few pockets like small parachutes, and they are also treated with a special coating, which is impermeable to water and air.
It is a very interesting thing to salvage and catch clam shells. To be honest, Yang Yong is so curious that he has never seen a shell creature with hundreds of kilograms. Fortunately, there are many sets of diving equipment, so Yang Yong planned to dive in person and lead a group of his subordinates to fetch this giant clam. Tonight, he was so excited that he shivered just thinking about a clam dinner.
Whether in ancient times or in modern times, men are the main force of hunting, and women are the main force of cooking. So hunting is the work of men, and it has been deeply embedded in the genes of men. Men and fire and meat are a wonderful combination. The resulting chemical reaction is even more exciting than that between a man and a woman. It may be that there is a killing gene in the blood of a man, so when he hears the word "hunting", his blood boils.
Because the clamshell is more than one meter in diameter and about eighty centimeters in width, it is inlaid on the reef like a grinding disc. The initial estimated weight reached hundreds of kilograms and this estimate is still a very conservative estimate. No one knows the real weight. Because the clam clam was stuck in the middle of the two classrooms, the size of the lower part can only be known by pulling it out.
So there are more than ten men in the water, and they all have various tools in their hands. The water was very clear and the visibility was very good. The first mate, who swam for a while in the sea, notified the people behind him that he had found the clam. Then he pointed to the middle of the two large reefs, and only then did Yang Yong see the true face of the clam.
Although the trickle has been endowed with many legends, it is a very long-lived shellfish. The scallop oyster is a similar creature, with two shells separated left and right, except that the opening part will be shaped like a wave. Because Tridacna is too fat, it is impossible to completely close the two wavy shells. The shape of Tridacula is very similar to a fat dumpling.
But don't be fooled by the appearance of the clam, because the clam is a dangerous creature in the sea. Although the clam clam can't move around, its body size of hundreds of kilograms and its two thick and thick shells are very powerful. If someone is unfortunate enough to have one foot in the opening of the two shells of the clam shell, the two shells of the clam clam will immediately tighten and add the diver's feet together.
You can imagine the compressive force of two scallops adding hundreds of kilograms together, not to mention the soles and calves of human beings. The camouflaged clam clam is a very dangerous crustacean.
Yang Yong slowly swam to the top of the clam, and the more he looked at it, the more he wanted to laugh, because this clam was really too fat. Only one opening was exposed outside the rock, and all the rest of the body was stuck in the grooves of the two rocks.
There are many marine creatures attached to the shells of the clam, and there is a blue light band around the edges of the two shells of the clam. Yang Yong knew that the blue light spots in this circle were the symbiotic algae of Tridacna, which could produce food on its own with the help of these microorganisms. Clams, like all shellfish, are filter feeders. Although they have glasses, their eyesight doesn't seem to be very good. They can only perceive changes in light, but cannot see the scenery outside.
Now that the target was found, everyone started to act. Some people took hydraulic pliers and started to cut open all the reefs surrounding the clam shell little by little. And then someone with a crowbar and someone with a sledgehammer started pounding on the rocks. It is said that the rock is actually a rock formed by the coral reef that has just died for many years, and the clam is stuck there.
Therefore, the rocks formed by the coral reefs are very soft. As soon as a large piece is peeled off, the seabed will be clear and the visibility will plummet. This is also impossible. There is sand on the bottom of the sea and various substances accumulated over many years. When the sea water stirs a little, those sediments will float around.
Only after the natural flow of sea water takes away these sediments, the visibility will slowly recover, and there is another way like Yang Yong is doing now. Use the propeller on the small underwater submersible to aim at the job site, then two people stand against the submersible together, and use the maximum power to blow away the water on the construction site with the propeller, so that the water can be restored to a clear state.
Although the reefs formed by coral reefs are very fragile, it is not an easy task to get this clam shell out. Coupled with the resistance of the water, the work of prying open the rock was very unreasonable. Fortunately, one more person was tired, and the other person was on top and worked continuously.
Finally, after half an hour, the chubby body finally appeared in front of people. As expected, the silk feet of the clam clam were firmly attached to the rock, and the color of these silk feet was very red. The thinnest is as thick as a person's little finger. The silk feet of these shellfish are comparable to the toughness of steel wires of the same specification.
The most difficult part is to cut these silk feet. At this time, no one backed down and all formed a circle with the tools in their hands, pouted their buttocks and started to clean these silk feet with the same strength as steel wire. Because of Smith's great strength, he was in charge of shaking the clam shell back and forth with both hands, which was how he loosened the clam clam from the rock little by little.
Yang Yong has never seen such a big crustacean before growing up so much. He was very excited and worked very hard after ten minutes. The clam finally broke away from the rock, but the big clam was so heavy that it tumbled into the sea at once. Fortunately, the shell of the clam was very strong and did not suffer any damage. At this time, Yang Yong realized what is the use of another thing like a parachute? It turned out that this thing was a crane in the sea. The parachute rope was tied to the clam, and then the oxygen tank was opened to fill the parachute with oxygen, and then it floated a little bit.
A total of four small parachute-like things can float a 100-pound triton from the bottom of the sea little by little. Then the Zhanglan drove to Yang Yong's side, and then used the small crane on the ship to fetch the clam from the sea and tossed it back and forth for more than an hour.
This giant crustacean creature with the size of a super tumbler finally appeared on the deck, although there were many sea creatures attached to it, which looked very disgusting. However, the huge size of the clam clam still brought a huge sense of oppression. Yang Yong even lamented that the creatures in the sea really cannot be understood with common sense, and it is incredible that such a large crustacean creature exists.
