The rock formation gradually became old, and finally could not withstand the impact of the air pressure and shattered!
Li Du had been observing the process. He had witnessed a small volcanic eruption with his own eyes.
It was a bit exaggerated to say that the underground water vapor was far worse than a volcanic eruption, but the two were essentially the same, so Li Du was right to think so.
The powerful stream of steam pushed away the broken rock formation and spewed out at lightning speed.
The steam stream itself was very hot. It was well known that under normal pressure, the highest temperature of water was 100 degrees Celsius, and above this temperature, it became water vapor.
However, the pressure at the bottom of the sea was very high, and the underground steam stream had been compressed by the rock formation before, causing the pressure and temperature to be higher, definitely exceeding 100 degrees Celsius.
The moment it hit the sea, the water that first came into contact with boiled directly. Seeing this, Li Du was shocked. It could be seen that the temperature of the water vapor could exceed 200 degrees Celsius.
The seawater transmitted temperature very quickly, and the steam stream was blocked. The main part continued to rush up, while the surrounding part was scattered into the surrounding seawater.
Several fishermen were at the edge of the crack, and the steam stream hit them.
So an interesting scene appeared. Every one of these people escaped, twisted their bodies in the hot water, and swam desperately to the surface.
Including the first fisherman who reached out to touch the black gold abalone, he did not avoid it. He was also scalded and swam to the surface with his hands and feet.
Seeing these people twist their bodies after being scalded, Li Du thought of the loaches he caught when he was a child, which twisted after being thrown into the hot sun.
After the crowd left, he slowly dived down and grabbed the black gold abalone in his hand.
The black gold abalone was hit by the steam, and it was so hot that it shrank its abdomen, so he could easily take it down.
When he came to the surface with the black gold abalone, he first heard a series of screams and curses:
"F * ck, f * ck, f * ck! It hurts! "
"Quick, let me see. Damn it, damn it. Quick, look at my butt. Is there any burnt skin?"
"Who has burn ointment? For God's sake, give me some ointment. My arm is burned. Ah, don't touch it, it hurts! "
Sophie swam up and grabbed Li Du in a hurry. "Li, how are you? My God, what happened just now? Are you okay? "
Li Du comforted her, "I'm fine. Don't worry, I happened to be at the back, so I wasn't scalded by the steam."
The black gold abalone fishermen in this area were all scalded. Although the scalding was not serious, just like Li Du's last time, at most the skin was scalded red or the epidermis was scalded, they could not go into the water today.
After that, no one followed Li Du anymore. They all took their boats and left to tend to their burns.
However, there was still a competitor here, and that was Brooks' wife, a sea woman.
The Japanese woman was very good at diving. She quietly searched for black gold abalone in the sea. After taking a deep breath, she went deep into the water and could stay underwater for a long time.
Li Du had checked her watch once. She had been in the water for twelve minutes before coming up.
That was an astonishing number, and Li Du was amazed by the abilities of the sea lady.
He had received freediving training and was in excellent physical condition, but he could only dive for about five minutes at most. However, this seemingly fragile woman could hold her breath for more than twice as long as he could!
The world record for holding his breath underwater was held by Stig, a Dane, nicknamed "The Man Who Doesn't Need to Breathe," for 22 minutes.
However, people like Stig were trained to hold their breath underwater. They didn't move underwater and held their breath just to set a record.
This sea woman was different. She had been working underwater all this time, which consumed more physical strength and energy. At the same time, she also consumed a lot more oxygen.
Therefore, Li Du felt that her ability to hold her breath was too strong!
Unfortunately, she did not have the little bug to help her. Every time she dived, she could only catch one black gold abalone. What restricted her was not her ability to hold her breath, but her ability to search for black gold abalone.
If Li Du could work with this sea woman, he would give her a position and let her be responsible for prying up the black gold abalone. They could sweep this area in one day.
Unfortunately, it was impossible for them to work together. This sea woman was silent. Li Du did not know what she thought of Li Du, but her husband was quite unfriendly to him.
Li Du could only take Hans into the sea. The two of them harvested much more than the sea woman. After all, every time they went into the sea, they went directly for the black gold abalone. The sea woman wasted too much time searching for black gold abalone.
In this way, Li Du and Hans harvested more than 70 black gold abalone in one day.
When they were ready to leave in the afternoon, Brooks rowed over to show off. "Hey, I see you guys floating up and down in the water. You seem very busy. How many black gold abalone did you find? "
The sea woman sat at the stern of the boat wrapped in a blanket. She frowned slightly and looked at the sea, seemingly uninterested in what her husband was doing.
Hans swam to the side of the boat. Hannah poured him a glass of warm ginger cola, but he did not drink it. Instead, he handed it to the sea woman on the boat next to him and said in a friendly tone, "I think you need some of this now."
Seeing that the glass of water was raised in front of her, the sea woman was stunned. Then she hurriedly held the glass with both hands and nodded to Hans with a smile. "Thank you very much for your kindness."
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Brooks said discontentedly, "What, you don't dare to show it, do you? Look, we found 25 black gold abalone! "
Hannah pointed to the four abalone preservation boxes at the bow of the boat and said, "We didn't count them. There are too many to count, but they are full. You can guess for yourself."
Brooks laughed disdainfully. "Who doesn't know how to talk big? Ha, all four boxes are full? Did you get eighty? "
Hannah was about to open the box for him to see, but Hans stopped her and said to Brooks in disgust, "Why do you care about this? If I were you, I would not stay here. Instead, I would hurry to the shore and let my wife take a hot bath. "
Brooks looked at his wife, who was curled up and sipping hot cola, and muttered, "Do I need you to tell me? My wife is not cold. "
Hans shook his head. "This bastard can find a wife? Cupid must have been blind when he drew his bow. "
Lu Guan said, "Who said Cupid shot him with an arrow? Two people don't necessarily get together out of true love, especially in the face of such a fat, stupid, and rude guy. How can a woman fall in love with him? "
Brooks glared at the two of them, then turned around and slapped the glass of water in his wife's hand. "Why are you drinking these people's things? Maybe there are some drugs in it. Don't touch their things! "
