Chapter 714
After hearing Zhou Shuwan's words, Qi Mingyu immediately stopped the diving operation, and his fingers quickly slid across the control panel to adjust the submarine's course.
Mu Mu also cooperated and quickly adjusted the thrusters to stabilize the submarine's posture.
The two sailed on the sea for more than ten days, and they had such a tacit understanding that they hardly needed any verbal communication.
The submarine slowly circled the dangerous reefs. The visibility around them was extremely low, and only the ripples constantly jumping on the sonar screen indicated the terrain ahead of them.
A layer of fine beads of sweat oozed out of Qi Mingyu's forehead, but he remained calm, staring intently at the screen.
Mu Mu's breathing also became a little rapid, but he pursed his lips tightly and did not make any sound.
Zhou Shuwan stood in the observation cabin, his palms still pressed against the glass, his eyes closed.
Ever since the last time the container expanded her space several times, her ability to use space to perceive her surroundings has become stronger and stronger.
Now, a three-dimensional seabed topography map is slowly unfolding in her mind.
She could clearly sense the location of the fish and even feel their swimming speed and direction.
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
"The school of fish is five hundred meters ahead, full speed ahead!" she said again clearly.
Qi Mingyu immediately increased the speed of the submarine, and Mu Mu also quickly adjusted the thrusters.
The submarine rushed towards the school of fish like an arrow.
As the submarine approached, the fluctuations on the sonar screen became more and more intense, as if the entire seabed was occupied by fish.
Mu Mu's eyes were wide open, his face full of excitement.
He shouted softly, "So many fish!" His voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal.
Qi Mingyu made a soft "hush" sound, signaling him not to disturb Zhou Shuwan.
Mu Mu immediately closed his mouth, but the excitement in his eyes did not diminish at all.
His hands gripped the operating panel tightly, his knuckles turning white.
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun, who were in the rest cabin behind the cockpit, could also feel that the submarine was diving very quickly.
They looked out through the narrow glass and saw only darkness.
Zhong Tiyun's eyesight was slightly better than Zhou Jianghai's. She squinted her eyes to look at the blurry black shadows in front of her. It seemed that they were... a school of fish?
She was delighted.
Did they find the fish?
The submarine was like a small flying shuttle, quickly approaching the school of fish.
Zhou Shuwan placed his palm against the glass and applied light pressure.
Those schools of fish that were originally swimming extremely fast rushed towards the submarine.
It was as if it was attracted by a huge force!
Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu were in the cockpit and could clearly see the movements of the school of fish.
The fish gathered densely together, like a huge black shadow, rapidly approaching the submarine.
Mu Mu's eyes widened and his breathing became rapid.
Just when the school of fish was about to hit the submarine, they suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The entire seabed returned to calm in an instant, as if nothing had happened.
At the same time, countless schools of fish were quietly lying in Zhou Shuwan's space.
Those fish were big or small, the big ones like marlin weighed several tons, and the small ones weighed only a few kilograms. Once they entered the space, they died silently.
Zhou Shuwan slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile.
"Success." She looked at the two of them with ease.
Qi Mingyu also smiled.
He released his hands from the console, exhaled lightly, and relaxed completely.
Mu Mu's face was also full of excitement: "We have gained a lot this time!"
They all saw the huge size of the school of fish just now.
Qi Mingyu nodded and turned his gaze to Zhou Shuwan with concern: "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhou Shuwan smiled and shook his head: "I feel good at the moment."
Mu Mu seemed to have suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "Sister, go and rest with Mom and Dad in the rest cabin. We'll rest here for a while before setting off."
It did take them several hours to reach this deep-sea canyon.
At first, Zhou Shuwan only had a vague perception, but the closer he got, the clearer he could feel the location of the school of fish.
"Okay! Let's take a break and have some food. Then we'll see where to go next!"
Qi Mingyu stopped the submarine near an underwater canyon and docked it steadily near a relatively flat seabed.
The seabed geological structure in this area is relatively stable, making it suitable for a short stay.
The submarine's engine slowly died down, leaving only the gentle sound of water rushing over the hull.
Zhou Shuwan came out of the cockpit and called his parents to have dinner together.
"Mom and Dad, Brother Xiaoyu, Mumu, come and have dinner."
She greeted everyone, asked what they wanted to eat, and then took out some hot meals from the space.
Zhong Tiyun and Zhou Jianghai both love noodles, so they each ordered a bowl of mutton noodles.
Zhou Shuwan still had a bowl of wontons, while Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu had rice and vegetables.
Each person also had a small portion of beef sandwich.
Xiaoche beef was made by Zhou Jianghai during the previous flood season.
The beef is particularly chewy and soft, and one bite is very satisfying.
After finishing the meal, the family talked about where to go next.
They have been out for more than half a month and have discovered three fish waves. The total harvest is estimated to be 70,000 to 80,000 kilograms.
Zhong Tiyun felt that she had gained enough and could go home.
Mu Mu and Zhou Jianghai both felt that there would be fewer and fewer fish in the future, so they might as well take this opportunity to catch more. This would give them enough confidence no matter what happened in the future.
Zhou Shuwan looked at Qi Mingyu, wanting to hear his opinion.
The other person looked at Zhou Shuwan with a gentle gaze: "Wanwan, how do you feel about your health after traveling for the past month and a half?"
Zhou Jianghai and Mu Mu, who had just advocated capturing more, both looked at Zhou Shuwan.
In fact, although the whole family went out to fish, Zhou Shuwan was the only one working.
Of course, Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu’s task is not easy either. They need to navigate in the dark sea, confirm the direction and avoid danger.
However, the one who needs to contribute the most and is the most crucial is Zhou Shuwan.
She harvested for half a month straight, and she didn't know if her body could handle it.
Before Zhou Shuwan could respond to Qi Mingyu's question, Zhou Jianghai hurriedly said, "Girl, let's go home! The ocean is so vast, how can we possibly catch all the fish? We should be content!"
Mu Mu also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, sister, let's take a rest for a night and go back tomorrow."
Zhou Shuwan felt the concern from his father and brother and couldn't help but smile before he spoke, "Actually, I've been feeling pretty good over the past half month. It's probably because of all the fire I collected earlier. This time, I don't feel tired at all. My perception of the sea surroundings is becoming clearer and clearer!"
Of course, if she were on land, relying solely on air as a medium, she wouldn't be able to sense anything even 500 meters away.
However, using water as a medium, her perception ability is quite good.
