Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 456 Coconut Crab, where to escape!

"Here we are, I'm going to go take a look first!"

Fu Ming took the lead and got off the boat first with a flashlight and a harpoon.

The island was pitch black at this time, and the trees and grass were all black shadows, which looked a little scary.

At the same time, there are many insects chirping around, and from time to time there are also a few calls of seabirds.

"There's something strange and scary about this place."

Fu Liang walked in front of Fu Wan, muttering softly. Fu Wan also rubbed her arms. It was already autumn, so she probably wouldn't encounter sea snakes or anything like that.

Forget it, sometimes it’s easy to make whatever you think come true. Fu Wan quickly stopped imagining and followed the brothers to the coconut crab trap.

Because they had limited flashlights on board, Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan did not get off the boat. In addition to a few young people, Boss Fu also followed them down because he was worried about their safety.

There were only two flashlights for five people, and Fu Ming was anxious to see the effect of the trap he had made, so he walked very fast.

"Haha, there really are coconut crabs!"

Fu Ming was immediately happy when he saw the coconut crab constantly stuffing coconut meat into its mouth.

Fu Wan heard the noise and hurried over.

"Brother, keep your voice down, or you'll scare the coconut crabs away!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Ming quickly shut up. The brother and sister simply threw away their harpoons and went up to hold down the coconut crab that was about to run away after hearing the noise.

"This coconut crab is pretty good, it's quite big, haha!"

Fu Liang hurriedly opened the net bag he had brought down and motioned for them to grab the things and put them in.

Originally it was best to use a snakeskin bag to pack coconut crabs, because coconut crabs are different from other crabs. They are too big and have sharp claws, which can easily tear the net bag if thrown into it.

But today's decision to catch coconut crabs was a spur-of-the-moment decision, and there were no snakeskin bags on the boat.

Fu Ming held the legs of the coconut crab with both hands and was about to put it in when he found it a little difficult.

"Why don't you just use the net bag and tie up the coconut crab directly!"

Fu Wan suggested, but the next moment Fu Liang touched his pocket and felt a little embarrassed.

"I don't have any hemp rope with me. Do you have any?"

Fu Wan shook her head subconsciously. She had changed her clothes before going to bed, and now there was nothing in her pocket except a knife.

"That's easy. Just pluck some grass and make a rope out of it!"

Ye Lin finished speaking and casually tried to pull the grass next to the coconut tree. Seeing this, Fu Wan hurriedly took out her knife.

"It's easy to mow the lawn with this."

The grass is deep and thick, and if you pull it out directly, you might end up cutting your hands.

Boss Fu picked up the harpoon next to him and said, "Don't worry about it yet. I'll clear the grass first."

This is a wild, uninhabited island, and it’s hard to tell what’s growing in the grass.

To be on the safe side, it is better to use a harpoon to knock on the grass first. If there are any living creatures in it, scare them away first.

This is when your rich experience comes into play!

Fu Wan and the others were also impressed, and Ye Lin was even more ashamed that as a hunter who grew up in the mountains, he actually forgot such an important matter.

After Boss Fu knocked for a while, there was indeed a rustling sound in the grass, but it soon became quiet again.

Even the chirping of insects stopped.

Seeing this, Boss Fu took the knife from Ye Lin and cut two or three handfuls of grass.

Both Boss Fu and Ye Lin knew how to weave straw ropes, so Fu Wan didn't get involved when she saw this. She simply followed the light of the flashlight and looked for another coconut trap.

They had previously divided the coconut meat into several pieces and placed them at the entrances of several coconut crab holes. What Fu Ming just discovered was just one of them.

"Hey, there's another one!"

After walking through several caves, Fu Wan finally found another coconut crab next to a piece of coconut meat.

"Hey, is this coconut crab dead?"

Before Fu Liang and the others arrived, Fu Wan noticed something was wrong.

Normally, coconut crabs would run away when they saw someone coming, but the one in front of me just lay there without moving.

"What's wrong, Awan?"

Fu Liang ran over quickly and saw Fu Wan pick up a branch from the ground and poke the coconut crab.

"This coconut crab is bigger than the one Amin has."

"It's big, but Brother Liang, it looks like it's dead."

Fu Wan poked it several times, but the coconut crab didn't move at all.

"Strange, the coconut meat has been almost eaten. Could it be that he died of overeating?"

Fu Wan muttered to herself, "Dead crabs can't be eaten. According to the villagers, once a crab dies naturally, its stomach is basically rotten."

If you eat this kind of crab, you may suffer from diarrhea at the very least and vomiting and diarrhea at the worst.

"Oh, is it really dead?" Fu Liang kicked the coconut crab with his foot and sighed with some regret.

"Such a big coconut crab, what a waste."

If it were still alive, even if we didn't sell it, it would be enough for everyone to have a nice meal.

However, just as Fu Liang and Fu Wan were about to leave, Fu Wan suddenly caught a glimpse of the coconut crab's claws moving.

Could it be that I am dazzled?

Fu Wan was a little confused, but she immediately recalled that animals would also use the skill of playing dead when they encountered danger.

So she turned around and grabbed Fu Liang, looking like she was going to move forward.

"Brother Liang, give me the flashlight, let's go look somewhere else."

Fu Liang handed the flashlight over without any doubt. Fu Wan took it and walked forward a few steps with Fu Liang, then turned off the flashlight and stopped.

Fu Liang was a little surprised. He was about to ask something when he saw Fu Wan hushing at him.

Well, Awan has a new idea now, so he should just do it and watch the fun.

Sure enough, within two minutes, Fu Wan heard a slight noise in her ears again.

The sound was very small at first, but gradually became louder. Even Fu Liang heard it and turned his head to look behind him.

Seeing this, Fu Wan turned around and turned on the flashlight.

"Great! This crab is really pretending to be dead. Look, Brother Liang! It's secretly crawled quite far!"

Fu Wan ran over quickly and grabbed the coconut crab. Seeing this, the crab stopped pretending and struggled to run away.

"The world is so big and full of surprises! We even saw a crab pretending to be dead today, haha!"

Fu Liang laughed happily as he firmly grasped the legs of the coconut crab on both sides and then lifted it up.

"Wow, how did you catch such a big one!"

Seeing this, Boss Fu quickly handed over the straw rope he had twisted, and in no time, the few of them tied up the coconut crab.

"Uncle, you don't know that this crab can play dead. If Awan hadn't seen through it, this guy would have gotten away!"

Fu Liang smiled and told the whole story. As they were busy, Fu Wan suddenly heard a gasp.

She instinctively looked in the direction of the sound, but she didn't expect that the next second, her hair stood on end.
