After Ye Yaopeng said this, he immediately stepped back several steps, and Ye Yaodong and Ye Yaohua also stepped back one after another.
I saw it only move weakly twice before, and I thought it had taken in less air and released more air, but I didn't expect it to be so vigorous.
"Are you okay, brother?"
"It's okay, it's okay. It was just too unexpected. I was unprepared. I lost my balance and almost fell. Fortunately, I wore a thick cotton-padded jacket in winter, so the blow didn't hurt much."
"What's going on?" Sister-in-law Ye asked worriedly when she saw her man being whipped by the giant squid.
"It's okay, it's not completely dead yet, so don't come over."
The three of them backed away a little, not standing too close, in case it was not completely dead and was still struggling there.
Sure enough, as soon as they retreated a little distance, its tentacles began to move a few more times, but the arc of the swing was not large, it could be said that it squirmed a few times, and it did not raise as high as it had just hit Ye Yaopeng.
"It has injuries on its body. It will probably die soon. Wait until it is dead before you go forward. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to fight back before it is dead."
The king squid has ten tentacles. The two long predatory tentacles have swollen ends with powerful suckers. The sucker rings have sharp teeth. The other eight tentacles also have suckers with long teeth, making them powerful hunting tools.
This makes it difficult for prey to escape once caught, and the sharp and powerful beak-like mouth dispatches helpless prey with terrifying efficiency.
Legend has it that the huge sucker can tear apart small ships. Fortunately, this one was almost dead, otherwise they might not have been able to capture it.
Ye Yaodong had already seen that its body was scarred from the moment he got close to it, with many sucker-shaped wounds, which were very similar to the shape of their tentacles.
Apart from sperm whales, the king squid's biggest natural enemy is themselves.
This is live undigested "ambergris"...
(The intestines of sperm whales can excrete ambergris.)
This was obviously not caused by oneself, but by fighting with the same kind. It can be seen that the "involution" of the giant king squid is also very serious. This one obviously lost the fight, so it escaped half-dead.
The three of them slowly circled around it for a while. It was obvious that its vitality was weakening and passing slowly, because it no longer moved very much.
"Can you come forward now?"
"Together."
The three of them stood at three corners and tentatively stepped forward slowly.
"It would be nice if I had a stick in my hand to see if it's alive or dead..." As soon as Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he saw the tentacle closest to him raised, which startled him.
, thought he was going to hit him.
Brother Ye and Brother Ye also took two steps back in shock.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. It raised its tentacles and put them down again.
"Fuck, you scared me, are you kidding me?"
"The vitality is quite strong. It has been stranded for so long, but it can still move."
"After all, he is so big, so it is normal for him to have strong vitality."
They waited for a while, until it didn't move for a long time, and then they stepped forward and gave it a few tentative kicks.
It just twisted a bit after being stimulated and then showed no reaction, so everyone felt relieved.
"It should be fine. It's dead. Should we drag it ashore now?"
"Everyone grabs one tentacle and pulls it out first to see how much this big squid weighs?"
"Let's see if we can move it first. If not, call our two sisters-in-law to come over and help."
"Try it first."
Ye Yaodong was wearing gloves on his hands, but he didn't take them off, and the tentacles no longer had a soft, slimy, disgusting feeling when he took them into his hands.
Each of the three people grabbed an antenna and tried to pull it, but they couldn't pull it.
"Good guy, this one weighs more than two or three hundred pounds."
Ye Yaodong was so happy that he turned his head and took another look, then hung its long tentacles on his shoulders and said, "Pull hard together."
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye saw that each of them was holding one tentacle and knew that the giant squid was dead and was no longer in danger, so she immediately rolled up her trousers and stepped forward to help.
Lin Xiuqing knew that she was in a special situation and did not dare to go up and cause trouble. Instead, she still stood there obediently. When she was waiting with her two sisters-in-law, they all picked up a few big clams and put them in their pockets.
She also picked up a black sea bream that was stranded. She just saw it and thought it wasn't too far away, so it wouldn't be a waste to go and pick it up. She just happened to take it back and steam it in the evening.
There were actually a few stone crabs crawling around my feet, but unfortunately I didn't bring anything to pack them with, so no one paid attention to them.
There is strength in numbers, and five people worked together. Each person dragged a tentacle and slowly pulled the boat from the shallow water to the beach.
Lin Xiuqing also saw this behemoth up close, "Oh my God, it's so big! Its tentacles are thicker than my thighs. It must weigh several hundred kilograms?"
Ye Yaodong said excitedly: "It should weigh three to four hundred kilograms. It's too heavy and I dare not drag it. I'm a little worried that if I drag it for too long, its tentacles will be torn off. What should I do? The value must not be greatly reduced.
"
"Yes, yes, you can't pull the tentacles anymore. If a few of the tentacles are torn off, it will be a heavy loss."
"Then what should we do? We still have to get it ashore, otherwise the tide will come in later and it will be even more blinding, and it will be even more difficult to get it."
"But I can't even lift such a big person..."
"Otherwise, let's just call the tractor. Let the tractor drive here, and then everyone can work together to lift the giant squid onto the tractor? Send it away directly?" Ye Yaodong suggested after thinking for a while.
It just so happened that few people knew about it, so just send him away and keep a low profile, otherwise someone in the village would have made slanderous remarks and spread the news that he was going to become a household worth ten thousand yuan or something.
Brother Ye nodded in agreement, "Okay, okay, anyway, you have to use a tractor to sell it after you pull it to the shore. This saves trouble."
"Where to send it to sell? Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, Ah Cai's place won't accept the goods." At this point, Sister-in-law Ye became a little worried.
"Send it to Hongsheng. The hotel will definitely be open."
It just happened to be sold to Hong Wenle. He should be happy to hear it. I told him a few days ago that there were good things to send, and it will be here soon.
"Yes, yes, the hotel must be open for business."
"Then just call a tractor, and everyone can work together to help move it up and send it away, saving you a lot of effort," Ye Yaodong said.
No one had any objections, so Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "Then you wait here. I'm free anyway, so I'll call for you."
"You don't want to go. You can't run. Walking slowly is a waste of time. Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, can one of you help me run? It will be faster this way."
Sister-in-law Ye saw that Sister-in-law Ye was silent and looked a little reluctant to leave, so she volunteered: "I'll go, you guys wait here first, I'll go and come back as soon as possible."
"Sorry, sister-in-law."
"It's no trouble, it should be."
My shoulders and back hurt so much today that I couldn't even lie down or sit up. Lying down on the bed was like pancakes, no matter how much I lay down. I felt so uncomfortable that I went to hang out again at night and didn't come back until 8:30. When I came back, I felt a little confused.
, my brain felt like it was mushy. I had to think through a paragraph several times before I knew what I had written.
I originally wanted to write a twist, but I found that I couldn't wrap my head around it today, so I'll leave it like that. On the first day of the new year, let the male protagonist go smoothly first.
I’m really sleepy, so I’ll sleep, sleep, and then update again when I feel better. I’m really in a bad state of mind these days.
Chapter completed!
