Chapter 2: Three-Meter Blue Shark

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Oh no, the smell of blood will attract the sharks nearby; we must leave here quickly. Another "Menge" was so frightened by this scene that he cried out in terror, bubbles constantly rising from his breathing apparatus. He swam upwards frantically, desperate to escape the demon before him

I hurriedly grabbed him, shaking my head and gesturing, in deep water, such a knife could not possibly harm a shark. With the shark's layer of scales, you simply cannot penetrate it; the resistance underwater is too great, making it impossible to exert any force.

"Are you crazy? He's an idiot, and so are you! Don't you know that the smell of urine can attract sharks?" I shouted loudly at Lao Chang, just because his son, that fool, urinated, almost got us killed

"Hurry the hell up and give it to me, there are sharks." I don't have time to waste talking to him; if we delay any longer, that guy's life will be in danger

Upon hearing about the shark, Lao Chang hurriedly threw over the spear gun and shouted, "You must be careful with this."

However, the underwater scenery is indeed quite beautiful. When you dive, you feel as if you are a fish. If I had not engaged in this line of work, there are some marine creatures that I might never have had the opportunity to appreciate in my lifetime

The surrounding seawater remains very red, as the shark's body continues to thrash about, creating waves in the water. Below the surface, the water has become somewhat murky. If this drags on any longer, it is likely that the 'fierce one' will be in grave danger. However, a speargun is ineffective against a shark if the distance is too great underwater

Lao Chang, often scolded by me, doesn't know what to say. He is not unaware of this matter; from the very first day I became "Mengzi," I told him and illustrated it with a diagram: never urinate in the sea, as it will attract sharks.

Then, Mengzi was frantically hammering the shark's head with his hands, but this had no effect at all. The shark seemed intent on dragging him into deep water; if he went down into the depths, he would surely die. I had to think of a way to save him.

"Did your son urinate in the sea?" I asked Lao Chang as I looked at him.

I gritted my teeth, facing the immense force, and moved forward once more. When I was again less than one meter away from the shark, this time I did not wait for it to strike. I quickly took out my spear gun and, almost pressing it against the shark's gills, fired a shot. The shark immediately released its grip from my shot.

Lao Chang awkwardly said, "Ah, that... he... he couldn't hold it in at the time, so... he just let it go into the sea"

It is unclear what has drawn it here; Shunzi was also quite startled at the time. From his wide-open eyes, I could tell that his face must be as pale as a ghost right now. Although I cannot see his face, I can imagine it.

This scoundrel is simply inhuman, even worse than a beast. When it comes to matters of life and death, he remains utterly indifferent. I was so furious that I stood up and shouted, "You bastard, do you even consider yourself a human?"

Seizing this opportunity, I stepped forward and grabbed "Mengzi," pulling him over to my side. I was well aware that an injury to a shark's gills could be fatal; even if it did not kill it, it would likely not retaliate for some time.

It was moving extremely fast, and it seemed like it was about to collide with us. I had no time to think; I suddenly pushed Shunzi aside. The shark passed right between Shunzi and me. It was truly terrifying, but fortunately, it did not graze us.

In fact, don't even mention him; I was scared to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat. If my self-control hadn't been strong enough, I might have screamed out loud. I was closely watching every move of the shark, knowing that if it truly wanted to deal with us, we wouldn't have time to escape. Its speed is far greater than any of us.

There is no time to think further; the oxygen tank is simply too heavy. I immediately removed the oxygen tank and swam with all my strength towards the surface. When I broke through the water's surface, I hurriedly shouted, "Lao Chang, quickly hand me the spear gun."

Old Chang often called his son over to steer the boat. He came over to take a look at the injured and, with a pale face, said, "My goodness, how did it come to this? Where did this shark come from?"

In about half a minute, Shunzi and I had already reached the seabed. I estimated that the water depth was approximately 10 meters. The four of us separated and began to fight our own battles. Although we were apart, the distances were not very far, allowing us to see each other at a glance, which was also for safety considerations

"What are you all arguing about? It's just a little pee, am I supposed to hold it in? Besides, he won't die from it, so what's the rush?" Old Chang's son said nonchalantly at the bow of the ship, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Old Chang quickly started the fishing boat, pushing the engine to its limits to leave. I sat on the boat, gasping for breath. This truly was a fierce battle. After such a tumultuous experience, every muscle in my body was tense, and my heart was racing. I checked my injured arm; fortunately, it was not serious, just a superficial wound. The bone should be fine. My heart continued to race as I examined my injured arm again, and thankfully, it was not serious, just a superficial wound. The bone should be fine.

Indeed, it did not pursue us, but instead remained in place, constantly thrashing about. We had to leave quickly; I was still holding my breath. I forcibly pulled the injured "Mengzi" along as we swam. Due to my arm injury, I expended too much energy. When we surfaced, Shunzi and Lao Chang hurriedly pulled us both up.

When sea cucumbers are at the bottom of the water, they resemble sleeping children, quite adorable. This item is highly nutritious and is undoubtedly a precious delicacy. The type of sea cucumber we harvest, if sold on the market, would be extremely expensive, something ordinary people wouldn't even dare to imagine.

I realized that this must be the reason for the large creature approaching. I hurriedly turned around to look back, and not far away, a massive shadow was swiftly swimming towards us. When it was less than ten meters away from me, I was startled and finally saw what it was; that shadow was actually a shark

After steadying my speargun, I took a deep breath and plunged into the water with force. Fortunately, I was fast enough; the shark had not yet dragged my target away. This fellow was quite tenacious, still struggling for his life. In extreme fear, a person can unleash their potential, but when faced with such a large shark, human potential is far from sufficient

At this moment, the shark did not pursue the injured 'Mongzi', but quickly swam upwards. I knew it was going to deal with another fleeing 'Mongzi'. I hurriedly gestured to Shunzi, urging him to go help the injured 'Mongzi'.

While I was talking, I was about to go over and hit him. Shunzi and Lao Chang hurriedly pulled me back. Lao Chang kept apologizing. He is generally a good-hearted person, but how did he end up with such a scoundrel of a son? If it weren't for his face, I would really want to throw this brat into the sea to feed the sharks. If it were my old temper, I would have even hit Lao Chang.

His complexion was slightly pale, and his consciousness was already blurred, almost rolling his eyes back. This should be caused by excessive blood loss, and immediate emergency treatment is necessary. If he continues like this, he won't last much longer

I quickly moved upstream, and at that moment, I witnessed with my own eyes that when the 'Menge' was about to surface, the shark had already caught up. It suddenly opened its massive jaws, its sharp teeth clearly visible, sending chills down my spine. It bit down on the 'Menge's' calf in one swift motion, followed by a spray of blood

I kept scooping up sea cucumbers, and the net bag on my left was already half full. Seeing that I had a relatively abundant resource, Shunzi also came over to join in the fun. Just as I was in a great mood, I suddenly noticed a problem: the fish school began to swim chaotically

Old Chang still did not know what had happened, and he leaned out halfway, shouting, "Zhongyi, what is going on? What happened?"

If this thing were to scrape against you, it would be disastrous, as it could tear your wetsuit and skin apart. When this shark passed by me, I finally got a clear look at it; it was a nearly three-meter-long great blue shark, one of the very few species among the hundreds of sharks that actively attack humans.

There was no other choice but to give it my all. I swam towards the shark with all my strength. When I was less than one meter away from it, the shark seemed to sense that I was about to attack. It forcefully swung its tail and charged towards my chest. I quickly raised my arm to protect my chest, but the shark's power was too great. Not only did it leave my arm bruised and battered, but it also sent my body flying several meters away. The pain was truly intense.

Shunzi shot him a glare and said in a very stern tone, "Where else could it have come from? Your son just attracted it by peeing earlier."

This fool, his actions will attract the sharks, can you run faster than them? When Shunzi saw this, he hurriedly pulled out the paratrooper knife from his leg, ready to rush over to save the person. It must be said that Shunzi is quite a man; if it were an ordinary person, they would have long since disappeared.

Then I took another look at "Mengzi," who had been bitten by the shark; it was truly a sight too horrific to bear. His entire left leg was a bloody mess, with only a small piece of flesh connecting at the knee joint. The bone had already been severed, and it was still bleeding. Such an injury would undoubtedly result in permanent disability

But I realized that it was not coming for the two of us; instead, it was heading straight for the other two 'brutes.' This is bad; something might happen. Sure enough, the large blue shark collided directly with one of them, causing that person to spin around, and blood gushed from their waist, instantly staining the surrounding seawater red

This type of shark is very aggressive, second only to the bloodthirsty great white shark, and it is relatively large in size. In the years I have been at sea, I have gained a certain understanding of sharks. However, after more than two years of free diving, this is still my first encounter with a shark underwater

The sequence should be to leave with the person while the shark is attacking. Just after we were brought onto the boat, I noticed that other sharks were approaching not far away, likely attracted by the scent of blood from earlier.
