Chapter 57: Pumping water to catch the sea(1/2)
Wow...
"the river is long and tempestuous, it was like a hero."
Facing the endless underworld, Ding Xiaoyi sat on the sofa imitated by Meatball, imitating the sighing song of the mysterious old man, while removing the sugar coating on his hand and stuffing it into Meatball's mouth.
How many treasures and secrets are hidden under this underworld?
For example, the bronze dagger that the old man defrauded him from last time had a fish written on it. What is the word after it?
Who will be its owner?
In the vast distance, are there any legendary gods?
Looking at the tide gradually beginning to recede in front of him, Ding Xiaoyi suddenly felt boundless expectations in his heart. He looked back at the water pump in his hand that had been tinkered with, and his chest was suddenly filled with ambition.
"Wow!"
At this time, a wave came and hit the exposed rocks, splashing into sheets of water curtains and hitting Ding Xiaoyi on the head.
The waves caught him off guard, and Ding Xiaoyi, who was originally ambitious, immediately became intimidated and let the meat ball move back again and again.
Time passes minute by second.
The beach in front of you is exposed, with bright grains of gold covered in black sand. At first glance, it seems like a coast made of gold.
However, gold's new gravitational pull on him is no longer strong enough, and it can even be said to be dispensable.
He has become a non-staff member and can now enjoy the support of the union as a matter of course. He earns about 10,000 alliance coins per month, which is considered a lower-middle income in S city.
If you want to be an ordinary person, just relying on this allowance and finding any money-making job can make your life easy.
Oh! Talking about a girlfriend is another matter.
Now, puddles of various sizes are gradually exposed.
Ding Xiaoyi looked at it carefully, mentally comparing it with the scope planned in his house deed.
I've probably already chosen the puddle I want to smoke today.
"Big head, the first puddle on the left!"
As he shouted, Big Tou was seen holding the water pipe with his tentacles, and under Ding Xiaoyi's command, he lowered the water pipe into the puddle.
Then he stood aside and looked at the water pump in front of him with curiosity.
When it comes to the arrival of the water pump, Datou is definitely the happiest. Finally, he no longer needs to fish it out with his own hands.
As for the rest, Ding Xiaoyi will naturally handle it himself.
After all, the old man often warned himself that he must be hardworking and rely on his own hands to get rich.
Then Ding Xiaoyi walked to the engine, took a deep breath, and gently clicked on the engine switch.
"Buzz buzz..."
Along with the humming sound of the engine starting, the indicator light connected to the battery nearby flashed.
The converted energy flows into the water pump continuously.
Looking at the water pump that was about to start, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but hold his breath. Although every link was fine, he still felt nervous at this time because it was related to his plan to go overseas.
I saw the water pump shaking a few times, followed by a buzzing sound of the motor rotating, and water spewed out from the water outlet on the side.
"success!"
Ding Xiaoyi's eyes suddenly became more expectant as he looked at the yellow spring that had been continuously drawn out of the water outlet.
What he hopes most is to be able to fish out another purple clam and harvest a Zhuoyou Pearl. After all, that thing is really powerful.
Make a ring and put it on your hand. If you encounter a psychic creature and punch it, you will lose half your life even if you don't die.
As the water level begins to drop.
The rocks under the puddle in front of me began to be exposed.
"What's this??"
There are many black fruits growing on the rock wall in front of you, which look no more than the size of a fingernail, and they are densely covered on these rocks.
Take out the mirror and look at these fruits.
[Bixinzhu, born on the reef wall of Huangquan, has a sweet and sour taste, and is often eaten by iron mayflies. It is also slightly poisonous. Humans should not eat more than three times a day. If eaten regularly, it can develop muscles and strengthen bones.]
After listening to Zhao Youjing's explanation, it turns out that these red fruits are Meatball's daily ration.
Looking back at the meat ball, I found that this guy didn't seem to be interested in these fruits at all.
Yes, eating sweets every day is the low-quality saccharin he specially bought from the supermarket, which is so sweet that it will knock your teeth out. If you let him eat this, of course Meatball will not be interested.
However, thinking of how weak it always looked today, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but think that he couldn't let him eat sweets all the time.
The reason why the meat ball is invulnerable may be because it often eats it for a living.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi pointed to the fruit on the stone wall and said to Meiqiu: "Go, eat your staple food!"
(つд?): The meat ball twisted its body reluctantly.
It seems that I have completely lost interest in these fruits.
Seeing this, he could only use his trump card, squatting down and saying earnestly: "If you don't eat, how can I give you an excuse to reward you? If you eat more staple food, I can give you more candies!"
Faced with Ding Xiaoyi, although Meatball was reluctant, under the temptation of the candy, he squirmed his body and covered the stone wall like a slime, eating the fruits on it.
On the side, Datou looked at Rouqiu's dejected look after being scolded by Ding Xiaoyi, looking like he was gloating about his misfortune.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyi was furious: "You too, you two eat together!"
(=?Д?=):???
“If you don’t want to eat, there will be no instant noodles!”
Hearing this sentence, Datou felt like crying without tears.
(?o﹏o?)
It can only be eaten by pulling the fruit on the stone wall like the meat ball.
Ding Xiaoyi also tasted it, picked up one and ate it in his mouth.
Um……
In addition to the bursting sensation with a hint of sweetness after one bite, the aftertaste is indeed a bit sour.
And my mouth feels numb after eating.
So he stopped eating any more, even though [Zhao Youjing] said these things were slightly poisonous.
But I can't completely believe it.
He also said that the fish was very nutritious, but he didn’t say much about it. He almost got a nosebleed after eating half of it.
Therefore, according to Youjing’s suggestion, I can only use it as a reference and preliminary understanding.
You can't completely rely on it, otherwise you are really afraid of the day when it says that this thing is not very toxic, and you will burp it after taking a bite, and then you will find someone to cry to.
Collect some and put them away for later use. I plan to eat one a day as melon seeds.
In short, it is always beneficial to have a strong body.
The water level is still falling.
Ding Xiaoyi discovered many interesting things one after another.
For example, some species look very much like the Chinese horseshoe crab (Hou), but are much more sensitive and smaller, about the size of a child's fist.
Often, as soon as they are seen, they have already crawled into the cracks of rocks, or dived into the water and refused to come out.
For these timid guys, Ding Xiaoyi did not waste the number of times he looked into the mirror.
Just wait until the puddle is drained away in an instant.
He saw a thick layer of mud under the puddle, and quite a few things were directly exposed in front of him, some of which he recognized.
For example, those extra-large black scallops, aren't they the [Young Oyster] I ate before?
I only found three last time, but it looks like there are at least a dozen here.
There are also some weird things, a purple snail, about the size of a fist.
Some black shells are not as big as purple clams, but they are still larger than an adult's hand.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Catch him quickly!"
Ding Xiaoyi kicked Big Tou in the butt and asked the guy to go down to work. Ding Xiaoyi's face was filled with the joy of a good harvest.
“The harvest is quite good!”
At this time, Ding Xiaoyi's ear twitched, and when he turned around, he saw the old man from last time popping up again out of nowhere.
With a fish basket in one hand and a pipe pot in the other, he was sitting on a raised rock nearby, looking at Ding Xiaoyi and the others happily.
Ding Xiaoyi glanced sideways and saw this old guy. He didn't know whether it was accidental or intentional.
The location of the opponent's station was quite coincidental, as it happened to be out of the scope of his land lease.
