Chapter 37 A gift for you
When Yin Dong stepped on the stone, he slipped and kicked the stone over. He saw bubbles coming out of the sea mud below and hitting him, like countless cool air flowing into his skin.
seep in.
This is... aura?
An idea came to Yin Dong's mind, and he thought it was ridiculous. Even he couldn't believe that he had such good luck. But he couldn't control his hands and dug into the sea mud. The more he dug, the more bubbles came out.
He directly operated the technique, and the trace of dragon power in his Dantian was like a cat that smelled the fishy smell. It jumped out and wandered around the body, catching the cool air that penetrated the body and refining it quickly. Then the trace of dragon power slowly disappeared.
Slow growth.
Although the growth rate is almost invisible, it only grows from one-tenth of a hair to one-eighth...one-fifth...one-third...
When that trace of dragon power was as thick as a hair, it retracted from the Dantian. Yin Dong also felt a sense of fullness in his body, so he stopped running the exercises and lay directly in the sea mud. He just felt extremely comfortable and casually
Then I caught a palm-sized conch and was about to throw it away. Suddenly I thought I could take it back and give it to Xiaobao as a toy. I took a look and was stunned again.
This conch is spirally coiled, with a milky white shell that is as smooth as a disk, with reddish-brown growth lines radiating from the umbilicus of the shell. The entire conch is shaped like a parrot's beak... Let me make a big mistake, this is not a nautilus, it seems that it is still
Live?
This is a living fossil in the ocean. It has been a species on the earth for hundreds of millions of years. In the Ordovician ocean, the heyday of marine invertebrates, the nautilus could reach 11 meters in length and was called a top predator.
Eaters have taken over the entire ocean.
The nautilus, which was almost all over the world in the Paleozoic era, is now basically extinct. It suffered the same fate of extinction as the dinosaurs. There are only a few remaining descendants of the living nautilus. They no longer have the ferocity of their ancestors, and their size has also become smaller. The largest
It's not much bigger than the nautilus in his hand.
Looking at the living nautilus in his hand, Yin Dong suddenly thought that it seemed to be a first-level protected animal. According to national law, if he needs to sell it, he will have to pay a resource protection fee of 30,000 yuan per unit, and it must be approved by the Ministry of Agriculture before it can be operated.
.
Of course, he didn't plan to sell it, but wanted to keep it for his son to play with...well, he couldn't let his son play with it to death. After all, it was a living fossil, as rare as the giant panda.
Since the nautilus lives well in this place, it must be suitable for the living environment here. Yin Dong wants to take some of the water and sea mud back here, but what should he pack it with?
He searched around and found a concave stone, so he filled it with some white foaming sea mud and sea water, then put the nautilus in, covered it with a stone chip, and added another stone on top.
After being covered with a layer of sea mud, it floated to the surface of the sea.
On the sea, the cold moonlight shines, and at a glance, it looks like silver yarn spreading out, but Yin Dong has no interest in admiring it, because he seems to be too far away from the previous island, so far away that there is no island in his field of vision.
, some are just vast seas with no edges visible.
Broken! Even if a boat went to pick him up on the island, he couldn't be found. His clothes and shoes were still left on the previous island, and he was only wearing a pair of underwear. Did he want to swim back to the village like this?
Yin Dong hesitated for two seconds and decided to swim back to the previous island.
When the moon was there, he could still tell the difference between north, south, east, and west. If the moon was gone, he would really have to drift on the sea all night. He looked up at the rolling dark clouds next to the moon, and howled: "You can see
Over the Red Moon…”
On the sea surface, it was like a howl of wolves suddenly sounded. A few fish not far away were so startled that they jumped up, plunged into the water, and swam away quickly. Yin Dong spat and cursed: "Made, a group of
A fish that doesn’t know how to appreciate music.”
After scolding the fish, Yin Dong continued to sing "Red Moon", unable to remember all the lyrics, and then he kept singing "Red Moon, Red Moon, gentle and beautiful". The song sounded like a wolf howling, spreading far and wide.
Yin Dong's sense of direction was really good. After swimming for about an hour, the small island finally appeared in his field of vision. Even though it was only a small dot the size of a sesame seed, he felt refreshed.
Soon, a scene that surprised him even more appeared. A speedboat drove over from the island. The speed had been increased to the highest speed, cutting through the waves and roaring from the sea.
It's Qiu Ying's speedboat. She has been waiting for him on the island!
Yin Dong watched the speedboat getting closer and closer, filled with joy. He held the stone containing the nautilus in one hand, raised his other hand and waved it desperately, shouting at the top of his lungs: "I'm here!"
The waves rolled, and as the speedboat rushed closer, Yin Dong was knocked away by the waves, and swam to the side of the speedboat as nimbly as a fish. Then he saw Qiu Ying appearing on the side of the boat, with a face full of anxiety.
Yin Dong suddenly became stupid. He wiped the seawater from his face, raised the stone he was holding, and said with a naive smile: "Axia... No, Qiu Ying, this is my gift to you... Yes, just now
Nautilus dug up from the bottom of the sea, alive."
Qiu Ying has been waiting for Yin Dong, waiting impatiently. When she first saw Yin Dong, she seemed like an active volcano on the verge of erupting. Now after hearing Yin Dong's words, all her anger suddenly dissipated, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart.
It was rippling, but she still lowered her face and scolded: "Where have you gone? I have been waiting for you for several hours, and Xiaobao refuses to go back. His voice is hoarse from crying!"
He definitely couldn't tell the truth at this time, so Yin Dong decisively lied: "I went to find a Nautilus for you."
"Are you stupid?" Qiu Ying said angrily. When Yin Dong got on the speedboat, she noticed the stone he was holding and suddenly became angry again: "I don't read much, don't lie to me! You can't
You want to say that a big stone is a nautilus, right? Although the nautilus is a living fossil, it is also a snail first, and your stone is square."
Yin Dong chuckled, threw away the covering stone, fished out the nautilus from the sea mud inside, and said shamelessly: "In order to find this gift for you, I swam a long way, and I almost died of exhaustion. You
You’ll like it, right?”
He did swim a long way, but the rest was all a lie, but Qiu Ying didn't think he was lying, and was so moved that she nodded, and said with red eyes: "Are you stupid?
If something happens when you are traveling so far alone, what do you ask... Xiaobao to do?"
Yin Dong said: "Then I still have you! If I have any shortcomings, you will definitely not ignore Xiaobao, right?"
"Nonsense!" Qiu Ying gave him a roll of her eyes, took the nautilus and walked away.
From behind, Yin Dong followed up holding the stone filled with sea mud. His hot eyes fell on her twisting waist, and then gradually moved down. Without paying attention for a moment, she hit the door frame, and there was a muffled "bang" sound.
There was a loud noise, and I couldn't help but scream "ouch".
Qiu Ying turned around sharply and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Hearing the concern in her words, Yin Dong shook his head stupidly and said with a smile: "It doesn't hurt."
