Historical records of whipfish

This kind of fish is recorded in the ancient book Haicuotu in Qing Dynasty. When reading the sea map, this fish often makes people look twice. It is really strange and lovely, with a red body, a snake-like body, a crane-like head and a long nose and mouth, but its mouth is just a small mouth at the tip.

Look at the note next to it: "sea eel, big red without scales." Oh, so this fish is called "sea eel". It is red all over and has no scales. This red color is so attractive that it is even described as a "whip made of red coral". So beautiful, it must be delicious!

You can look at the last sentence: "It's all oily and unpalatable." It shows that the meat of this fish is rich in oil and has a bad taste. But it has been fished out, so it's a pity not to eat it. Therefore, in the Qing Dynasty, fishermen's "hanging it for fun" meant to circle the fish, hang it for fun, and hang it for fun. The amateur life of fishermen is really boring. What's the fun? ...
