Chapter 471 South China Sea
A port near a remote fishing village in Yangcheng.
Ning Xiyue, who was disguised as a middle-aged woman with a fierce face and dark skin, took off the old straw hat on her head, sat down in the shadow of a tree by the sea, wiping her sweat, and fanning herself vigorously with the straw hat in her other hand.
"This damn weather is so hot, and the air is so humid and sticky. I feel really uncomfortable and I'm not used to it at all. I don't know when Ye Chu and the others will arrive. If I had known, I wouldn't have left so early."
"Host, the coastal areas are quite humid, but the seaside also has its advantages. There are a lot of seafood. You can see that the sea water not far ahead is quite blue. The seafood must be delicious. Host, they will have to wait for at least half a day before they arrive. Why don't we go get some seafood first?"
When Tongzi arrived at the beach, he was only thinking about eating and was already drooling towards the sea.
Ning Xiyue followed the line of sight and felt the heat from her body blown away by the oncoming sea breeze. Her mind also fell on the countless treasures in the sea.
Of course, some eyes were also on the little Tongzi who was flying in the air in front of her, greedily eating the treasures in the sea.
There was a gleam in her eyes and she spoke expectantly.
"It would be great if I could go to the sea and catch some fresh mantis shrimp, crabs, and abalone. I could make salt and pepper mantis shrimp, steamed crabs, and garlic abalone. They're so delicious. I'm drooling just thinking about it. But it's a pity that you, Tongzi, are a freshwater turtle and you're a system, so you can't swim in the sea."
When the little turtle heard about the delicious food, his green eyes grew a little bigger and he puffed out his chest.
"I am from the Black Turtle Clan. I am not afraid of a mere sea. Host, go to the beach, get a wooden bucket, and let's go catch some seafood."
"Okay, fine. I like fishing the most."
Ning Xiyue quickly put on her straw hat, not caring about whether she was hot or tired. She ran to a remote beach with ungraceful steps.
He took out an extra-large wooden barrel from the space, took a long pair of pliers in his other hand, and looked at the sea in front of him with anticipation.
"Tongzi, I'm ready."
"Wait."
"Ding, we found the sign-in location, in the South China Sea. The host needs to carry a wooden barrel and pliers, open his arms, and embrace the sea. Do you want to sign in?"
"Sign in."
Is this what Tongzi asked her to wait for? What good stuff will there be?
Ning Xiyue raised her hands impatiently, holding the wooden barrel in her left hand and the long pliers in her right hand. She happily closed her eyes and embraced the sea with a look of enjoyment as if she was shooting a promotional film.
Hey, her system is quite like a beautiful sightseeing check-in system, recording photos of every place she goes.
"Sign in."
"Sign in successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a large yellow croaker, five mackerels, an automatic fishing device, a night-shining pearl, and a water-repellent pearl."
"Oh! Are the water-repellent beads the same ones from the mythological world that I imagined?" Ning Xiyue asked Tongzi excitedly. He immediately took out the ordinary-looking water-repellent bead that looked like a cooked fish eye and looked at it.
It is embedded in a small iron mesh ball and connected with an iron chain.
Is this the legendary water-repellent beads? It is indeed simple and unpretentious.
"Yes, host." The little turtle nodded with a smile.
"Is it the kind of water-repellent bead that is not affected by seawater pressure or oxygen levels and allows me to move freely in the ocean, just like walking on the shore?"
"That's it. Host, put the water-repellent beads on your neck and we can go to the sea. We can go to the sea and catch any seafood we want. You can choose whatever you want."
Ning Xiyue became even more excited when she heard this: "Then can we go find those sunken ships and grab the treasures?"
The most abundant thing in the underwater world is all kinds of treasures. There is no telling how many shipwrecks there are on the seabed throughout the ages. She is not greedy and just wants to take some gold, silver and jewelry.
"Uh, host, the water-repellent beads we signed in are the lowest level water-repellent beads. We can't go to those deep sea areas. We can only play in shallow sea areas."
Oh no, the baby who was about to meet her flew away.
Tongzi's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Ning Xiyue's head, making her lose her temper. She hung her head and asked dejectedly:
“How deep can you go underwater?”
"Five hundred meters."
"That's enough." Ning Xiyue revived with full health.
Even if we can't get the treasures from the shipwreck, it would be nice to get some pearls or something. Pure wild sea pearls are also valuable things, so it would be nice to get more seafood back.
Today's seafood is pure natural and pollution-free, and is the most delicious.
Ning Xiyue thought so and quickly put the water-repellent beads on her neck. She raised the beads with some concern and asked, "Tongzi, are the iron ball and iron chain made of reliable materials? Will they make the water-repellent beads fall out?"
If she loses this, her life will be in danger, so why not keep it in your hands?
"Host, don't worry, the beads won't fall off. It's safe like this."
"Okay, let's get started. I can't wait to go to the sea to catch fish and shrimps. We can catch delicious seafood so that we can have a big meal at noon today."
Ning Xiyue held the bucket and looked towards the sea with bright eyes. She would conquer the sea today.
"It will automatically start when it touches water, and it can protect the host's life underwater. Don't worry, host, take out the night pearl and use it as a lighting tool when you go into the sea later."
"good."
Ning Xiyue took out a beautiful light blue night pearl which was half the size of her fist from her backpack.
He looked at the big bead in his hand with eager eyes, this is also a treasure!
With these two things, she could feel just as comfortable on the seabed as on the ground, and she wouldn't have to worry about not being seen.
In order not to be mistaken for a fool jumping into the sea, Ning Xiyue called out to the system: "Tongzi, please help me see if there is anyone around. I am about to take action."
"Ding, there is no one within a hundred meters, the environment is safe, the host can start preparing."
Now Ning Xiyue picked up the big wooden barrel with confidence, holding the night pearl, and ran towards the sea happily. The little turtle flew to Ning Xiyue's head and squatted on it, helping to watch the road and give directions.
Sure enough, as Tongzi said, the water-repellent beads automatically activated when they came into contact with water, forming a large transparent bubble-like ball that wrapped her whole body, preventing her from getting wet at all. She felt particularly safe whether squatting or standing inside it.
She also found a particularly useful feature of the water-repellent beads, which allows her to switch between walking and automatic modes at will.
When she walks, she moves by herself, just like walking on the ground. The water is completely isolated outside the transparent sphere, so she can just walk forward boldly.
The automatic mode is very comfortable. She can just sit inside without moving. The transparent sphere is a submarine, and the beads hanging around the neck are the rudder and remote control. She can just hold the beads and move in the direction she wants to go.
After experiencing the addiction of walking on foot, lazy Ning Xiyue no longer wanted to walk by herself, so she put the wooden barrel beside her, sat cross-legged, and switched to automatic mode.
