Chapter 258 Natural Pearl Field Under the Sea
Of course, just relying on corelessness and non-cores, it is impossible to directly judge whether a pearl is a natural bead or an artificial bead.
Because in nature, there are many clam shells that are invaded by parasites or accidentally swallowed into gravel, and those pearls are also cored.
As far as Li Xuan knows, there are about thirty species of pearl musses all over the world.
As long as the pearl mussel is stimulated, it will immediately secrete a pearly substance from the coat membrane.
At this time, Yang Hua also opened a pearl clam. Li Xuan saw the layer inside the clam shell, which was smooth and shiny. When it was close, he could still see a pearl-like luster.
Li Xuan, who knew that it was the pearl layer, quickly reached out and handed Yang Hua a dagger.
But Yang Hua waved his hand and threw the pearl clam back directly.
Li Xuan frowned, picked up the pearl clam and took a closer look.
After seeing this, Li Xuan understood that the pearl mussel had dense dense layers, and dozens of bulges could be seen vaguely.
These dozens of bulges are dozens of pearls.
Li Xuan knew why Yang Hua threw this clam away.
The more pearls produced by pearl mussels, the better.
On the contrary, because the number of pearls produced is too large, each pearl particle is very small, and these small pearls are very valuable.
Soon, Li's father and Chen Bin, who gradually adapted to the strong sea water pressure, also joined the ranks of picking up pearls.
The three crew members were all very excited and were happily searching for clam shells after clam shells.
But Li Xuan gradually stopped the movements at hand.
Li Xuan frowned and found that these pearls in this sea area were of all colors, including black, white, and orange.
But it is not big in size, and its shape is even more strange.
In short, it is this natural pearl field, which does not have the pearl of the quality of the golden pearl found by the leatherback turtle.
Not to mention the quality pearl of the golden pearl, even Li Xuan has not found a single golden pearl.
Involuntarily, Li Xuan looked at the leatherback turtle.
At this time, the leatherback turtle was lying on the side, gnawing on a long seaweed very leisurely.
Turtles are omnivorous animals. In addition to eating jellyfish, which is nicknamed by humans, they also eat other small fish and shrimps, and even carrots, cabbage leaves, etc.
Seeing Li Xuan looking at it, it immediately climbed up. Its huge body was not heavy at all. It waved its claws a few times and then arrived next to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan reached out and stroked the head of the leatherback turtle. If he didn't wear gloves, he would definitely be a little pricked. There were also very ferocious edges on its head.
Li Xuan even suspected that the first person to propose Xuanwu in ancient times actually saw the leatherback turtle in the sea and then proposed the word Xuanwu.
The leatherback turtle obviously knew that it was Li Xuan who led his men to help him clean up the barnacles. It stayed quietly beside Li Xuan and took the initiative to rub his neck against Li Xuan.
Li Xuan waved to Chen Bin not far away.
Chen Bin swam over immediately.
Li Xuan stretched out his hand, rubbed his fingers, and signaled Chen Bin to take out the golden pearl.
Chen Bin immediately understood and quickly took out the golden pearl from a small pocket he carried with him.
After Li Xuan took it, he handed the golden pearl to the leatherback turtle.
In fact, Li Xuan just took a try attitude. After all, it was too difficult to make a leatherback turtle understand what he meant. Moreover, the golden pearl is a much more expensive item than the equivalent amount of gold.
Xuan didn't think there were many other golden pearls. This one might also be this leatherback turtle. I don't know which corner I found it.
The result surprised Li Xuan.
The leatherback turtle looked at the Golden Pearl and was motionless at first, as if it was a little confused, but it seemed that it had no reaction at all.
But soon, the leatherback turtle turned around and swam towards a place.
While swimming, it turned around and looked at Li Xuan, as if to see if Li Xuan had followed.
Li Xuan was surprised that this leatherback turtle was so humane that he followed closely behind him, and he also had a vague expectation in his heart where the leatherback turtle would take him.
But Li Xuan only swam with the leatherback turtle for a while and then stopped.
The reason is that this leatherback turtle is swimming deeper into the sea, and it is still diving. This depth is close to Li Xuan's limit. Li Xuan now feels a slight tingling in his ears, and his nose is also very sour. His eyes are
It was even more uncomfortable to swell.
The leatherback turtle turned around and looked at it. Seeing that Li Xuan did not follow him, it seemed a little anxious. It swam back and made a few rounds around Li Xuan, and then pushed Li Xuan forward with its head.
Li Xuan hurriedly dodged and shook his head, saying that he was not good enough.
After a few times, the leatherback turtle "suddenly realized". It first stared at Li Xuan, then turned around and quickly sank under the trench.
Li Xuan waited in place for a while, not sure whether he should leave.
Just as Li Xuan was hesitating, Li Xuan saw that the leatherback turtle had flown up from the bottom of the trench again.
Li Xuan saw that the leatherback turtle seemed very excited. When he opened his mouth and spit out three golden pearls of the same size.
When Li Xuan saw it, he was shocked.
No matter how slow the reaction was, Li Xuan knew that there must be a natural pearl field that produces gold pearls under this trench.
These four golden pearls are enough to make two pairs of earrings, and they are all top-notch pearls with grains of more than ten millimeters, and they are all of them in excellent quality. After making earrings, they will definitely make countless ladies completely crazy.
and,
Li Xuan stared at the abyss under the sea. When he went into the sea, he could not only get such four golden pearls.
The sea water under this trench is extremely deep and the pressure is very high. Other humans do not rely on submarines, but rely on diving equipment, it is basically impossible to go down to such a deep sea area.
But Li Xuan can.
Li Xuan has an octopus clone.
For Li Xuan, this trench that cannot be seen at the bottom is just like his own fish tank. He can fish as he wants as he wants.
After recording this location, Li Xuan took four golden pearls and began to return to the pearl field he discovered at the beginning.
Li Xuan summoned several crew members at the bottom of the sea and said that it was already a long time since the trip, so it was time to return to the boat to rest for a while.
At the same time, Li Xuan's octopus clone brought the giant copper octopus to the trench.
At this time, whether it was my father or Chen Bin, they were in a hurry to collect pearls, and each of them collected a lot of pearls.
