Chapter 17 Six-pointed Starfish
Su Qian threw the dead sea snake into space and looked around again.
This time, there is no sense of crisis.
She held the dagger in her hand and controlled her body to swim slowly forward.
Since the clothes are already wet, there is no need to make waterproof bubbles.
Let's just leave it at that!
At this moment, Su Qian's long flowing hair was scattered in the sea, and her dress was swaying slightly with the water marks, making her look as lazy and comfortable as a mermaid.
She stroked the waves with one hand and held a dagger in the other, and moved forward with her legs slightly pushing against her skirt behind her.
The seabed was very quiet, and schools of small silver fish swam towards her in groups.
From time to time, he would peck at her dress.
Su Qian also let the thumb-sized fish peck at her toes at will. At this moment, she was almost reaching the bottom of the shallow sea.
Not far away is a coral reef.
I heard that this ancient coral is a priceless treasure, but I don’t know if it can be put on the market.
Soon, she arrived in front of the coral reef.
Her bare feet stepped lightly on the sand on the seabed, and her dress swayed slowly with the ripples.
Su Qian, who came from another world, was actually very clear that the majestic and beautiful corals in front of her were not actually plants.
But this does not mean that she is indifferent to the coral reefs in front of her.
She finally understood why the ancients regarded this coral as a national treasure!
It’s mainly the color and shape that are so fascinating!
These colorful corals are like branches and flowers, showing their best side. Schools of light blue coral fish shuttle through them like butterflies fluttering among flowers.
Su Qian stretched out her hand in front of one of the light pink corals, wanting to see if the trading market would prompt it to be put on the shelves.
Sure enough, the transparent display screen in my mind lit up and a line of words appeared: Light pink coral, worth 10 taels of silver, is it on the shelf?
Tsk tsk, only 10 taels of silver?
This trading market seems a bit shady!
Su Qian couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
As if sensing Su Qian's thoughts, the screen flashed and another line of words appeared: Warm reminder, the lighter the red of the coral, the lower its value. It is recommended to look for chicken blood red corals to put on the shelves!
Hmm, it seems I have misunderstood this trading market!
However, this pink coral in front of us still has to be put on the shelves, after all, it costs money!
You know, these 10 taels of silver are equivalent to 10,000 copper coins. How many kilograms of clams do you need to pick up to get these 10 taels of silver?
Soon, the amount of silver in Su Qian's account was no longer 0, but 10.
but!
Later, when she touched other pink corals, the trading market did not even prompt that they were on the shelves!
Su Qian: “…”
She stared helplessly at the trading system screen for a few times, and finally had no choice but to compromise and go look for the blood-red coral.
"Little girl, lift your feet! You are stepping on me!"
At this time!
A voice came into Su Qian's ears.
The sound scared her straight away!
Why can she hear people talking clearly at the bottom of the sea?
And it was a very greasy voice of a mature man!
Su Qian subconsciously left the sand and floated a little above the water surface, then looked at his feet and surroundings vigilantly.
"Hey, this little girl seems to understand what I'm saying?"
That voice rang in her ears again with a hint of doubt.
"Who? Who are you?"
Su Qian finally couldn't help but speak. A string of bubbles came out of her mouth.
"Hey, you actually understood! Little girl, I'm right under your feet, look down!"
The voice was a little excited and much louder than before.
Su Qian took two steps back and realized that there was a colorful starfish lying where she had just stood.
She squatted down curiously, poked the starfish that was still lying there, and asked softly, "Were you the one who was talking just now?"
At the same time, the screen in Su Qian's mind lit up: Hexagram starfish, a highly intelligent creature in the ocean, cannot be put on the shelves.
? ?
Six-pointed starfish?
Are you sure it's not a rogue starfish?
Listening to the greasy tone of the starfish, he really sounds a bit like a gangster!
"Hehe, little girl, don't tickle me, I'm ticklish!"
Just as Su Qian was staring at the screen in a daze, she heard the rogue's voice again, no, the six-pointed starfish's voice.
Looking at the six-pointed starfish on the ground, Su Qian frowned slightly.
Why could she understand what the six-pointed starfish in front of her said?
Is this starfish a spirit, or has it awakened its ability to communicate with marine life?
Su Qian decided to find another marine creature to test.
But!
When I looked back, I found that the water had become clear and quiet, and I couldn't see any fish!
Su Qian: “…”
Su Qian helplessly placed the dagger in his left hand, and used two fingers of his right hand to lift the small and exquisite six-pointed starfish and put it in front of his eyes for a careful inspection. Looking at its rolling eyes, he couldn't help but ask, "Advanced intelligent creatures in the ocean?"
"Hey, hey, hey, little girl, don't lift me up like this. I'm afraid of heights! Put me down quickly!"
The six-pointed starfish did not struggle when Su Qian held it up. Instead, it kept muttering to Su Qian to put it down.
Su Qian's face was filled with gloom. He casually threw the six-pointed starfish in his hand far away, ready to go look for the blood-red coral.
but!
What I never expected was!
The rogue starfish that she had just thrown away flew back into her hand with a whoosh!
He also held her arms tightly with his two tentacles.
Afterwards, the rogue starfish's plaintive voice reached Su Qian's ears again.
"You heartless little girl, I asked you to let me go, but you threw me out without mercy! You didn't even give me a chance to be reserved, wuwu┭┮﹏┭┮."
Su Qian's face was filled with gloom. He shook his arm, trying to throw away the starfish that was holding his arm tightly.
However, no matter how she shook it, the starfish held on to her arm tightly.
There was no other choice but to put the dagger into the space, then grab the starfish with his left hand and let it leave his arm.
Unexpectedly, no matter how hard Su Qian tried, he couldn't get the starfish off his arm.
"You, get down from me!"
She was helpless and could only speak to the starfish.
"I won't! I won't!"
The rogue starfish held Su Qian's arm tightly, and his voice was filled with stubbornness and persistence.
"So what do you want to do?"
Su Qian took a deep breath, resisted the urge to beat up the starfish in front of him, and continued to ask softly.
"I have been in this sea for thousands of years. I finally met someone who can understand me. I want you to stay with me for a while."
The starfish's voice gradually softened, with a hint of pleading in the end.
