My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 799: The Underwater Part of the Iceberg

After the banquet, Xiang Yang and Xu Fang returned to their boat.

Chen Qingsheng immediately greeted him, "Captain, Lao Xu, are you back?"

"Yeah." Xiang Yang nodded with a smile, "Have you eaten and drank well?"

Chen Qingsheng nodded, "Brothers are full."

Xiang Yang smiled and said: "Since everyone is eating and drinking well, let's all have a good rest. If there is no accident, the fleet will set sail again tomorrow."

"As soon as the banquet was over, I asked the crew members to go back to the cabin." Chen Qingsheng said.

Xiang Yang hummed.

After experiencing the blizzard, everyone was worried and tired all day, and everyone drank some wine at the banquet at night. Now that they returned to the cabin, they must have a rest.

Early the next morning.

Xiang Yang shook his arms and appeared on the deck early.

After one night, the impact of the blizzard has completely passed.

But the sky was still gray.

Soon, the crew members who got up early got up one after another, and immediately greeted Xiang Yang one by one after seeing Xiang Yang.

"captain."

"Brother Yang."

Xiang Yang responded one by one, "Good morning."

Looking at the majestic blue sky and the huge white iceberg not far away, Xiang Yang felt refreshed for a while.

"Why do you get up so early?" Xiang Yang asked those crew members who got up early with a smile.

"I went to bed too early last night, and with the extreme daylight, it was always bright this day. In fact, I woke up earlier, and I got up at this moment. In fact, I have been lying on the bed for more than an hour after waking up. "Chen Qingsheng said.

"Anyway, there's nothing to do when you get up, even if you wake up, it's better to lie on the bed for a while." Xiang Yang said while exercising.

"How about we go to the bottom of the sea?" Chen Qingsheng asked.

As soon as Chen Qingsheng said this, all the crew members who got up next to him looked at Xiang Yang.

"You all want to go into the sea?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile.

Everyone nodded immediately. Now everyone on Xiangyang's boat is used to diving as a pastime.

The last time we dived, we encountered hammerhead sharks. We didn’t enjoy diving to the fullest. Afterwards, we encountered blizzards and Antarctic dead rays. We fled all the way to this sea area, and we wanted to go to the sea for a long time.

Xiang Yang looked at the towering iceberg not far away, "Do you know? Generally, the part of an iceberg that emerges from the water is only about one-tenth of the volume of the entire iceberg. Look at that iceberg, the part on the water surface There are dozens of meters, and the underwater part is at least a few hundred meters, which means that the depth of the sea in this sea area is at least a few hundred meters, even if we go down, we will not be able to dive to the bottom of the sea.”

"It's okay to go down and have a look. We don't necessarily have to dive and fish when we go down to the surface of the water. It's just to pass the time." Chen Qingsheng said.

Xiang Yang smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid you are the only ones who can have such a high enthusiasm for diving."

When Chen Qingsheng heard this, he immediately patted his head in embarrassment.

Diving is an extremely physical exercise from the beginning to the end, and if you stay underwater for a long time, you will have some damage to your body. Except for the Xiangyang boat, if you change any fishing boat, the crew on the boat will not be able to understand the importance of diving. This activity has such a high motivation.

"Isn't this just idle on the boat with nothing to do? The fishing boat was ravaged by wind and snow yesterday, and you lost a lot, captain. Let's go into the water to see if we can catch some rare catches, and help you recover some losses, captain." A crew member Touching his head, he said.

Hearing this, Xiang Yang frowned slowly.

The crew immediately panicked, "Captain, did I say something wrong?"

Xiang Yang sighed, "You're right. We fishermen depend on the weather. I was actually lucky when I encountered a snowstorm yesterday. The loss on the boat was not that great. Boss Gao's loss was much greater than mine."

Chen Qingsheng shook his head and said, "Actually, Boss Gao is considered lucky. At least there were no casualties in the fleet."

Xiang Yang waved his hand and cursed with a smile: "Forget it, let's not talk about this, if you want to go to the sea, you can go, but be careful, you must not run around under the water, and pay attention to the movements of the fishing boats on the water at any time under the water, don't wait a while The fleet has left, and you are still fishing in the water."

"That's not possible." Chen Qingsheng said immediately.

Xiang Yang laughed, "Go get the diving suit, and help me bring out mine by the way."

Chen Qingsheng was pleasantly surprised: "Captain, you want to go down too?"

"Why, you are allowed to go down, but I am not allowed to go down?" Xiang Yang snorted.

"Come on, I'm going to get the diving suit for the captain." Chen Qingsheng said with a hearty smile.

Soon, Xiang Yang put on his diving suit, and then dived straight to the bottom of the water.

Going down this time, Xiang Yang didn't bring a net bag, he just wanted to go down to see the scenery.

Because the sea water here is at least several hundred meters deep, it is impossible for normal humans to dive to the bottom of the sea even if they wear a diving suit.

Xiang Yang was able to dive down, but it was difficult to explain to the crew when he came up.

There is a huge iceberg not far away.

After Xiang Yang got into the water, he saw the bottom part of the iceberg at a glance.

To be honest, the moment Xiang Yang saw the bottom part of the iceberg, his heart was a little shocked.

On the surface of the sea, the iceberg is like a sharp, unvegetated, white-dominated hillock.

On the bottom of the sea, the iceberg is so large that it almost looks like a real mountain.

"No wonder there is a saying that you only look at the icebergs on the sea, and you will never know how deep the underwater part is." Xiang Yang thought inwardly.

The underwater part of this iceberg is more than ten times the size of its above-water part.

An iceberg is actually a piece of ice as big as a mountain, which has broken away from a land glacier or ice shelf and floated on a vast water surface.

In a flash, Xiang Yang appeared at the bottom of the huge iceberg.

Knocking the iceberg in front of him with his hand, Xiang Yang found that the texture of this iceberg was very strong and hard. If his fishing boat collided with it, it would definitely cause a shipwreck. The consequences might be the same as the Titanic in 1912. Difficult so serious.

"Such a large iceberg, it is impossible to let it float on the sea without any supervision?" Xiang Yang thought to himself.

In fact, these icebergs floating on the sea are very dangerous. No one knows what the underwater part looks like before on-site detection. When ships are traveling near the icebergs, they may sink on rocks at any time.

The most important thing is that most of the icebergs on the sea will move with the ocean currents and wind currents. It is difficult for the nautical chart to accurately record a channel that can safely avoid all icebergs.

Because icebergs are likely to pose dangers to sea operations, countries around the world have formed an international ice patrol to monitor the movements of icebergs around the world. It is said that my country also has a system for monitoring iceberg movement.
