Fu Ming looked around but couldn't find his scissors. With Fu Wan not around, he got goosebumps all over his body.
There are countless unknown creatures in the deep sea; whether or not there are ghosts is really hard to say.
After all, Fu Ming had heard countless stories about sea monsters since he was a child.
Fu Ming excitedly gestured wildly, and Fu Wan couldn't help but laugh so hard she bent over.
Regardless of whether there are ghosts in the sea, even if there are, they wouldn't come out in broad daylight!
As for Fu Ming's scissors, unsurprisingly, they must have fallen into some coral reef.
You can't litter on the seabed, so you definitely have to find the lost scissors.
Helpless, Fu Wan could only follow Fu Ming back to the place where he hunted pufferfish.
It was a huge coral reef, with seaweed growing at waist height underneath.
There are several anemones floating on the coral reef, and three brightly colored clownfish are tirelessly swimming around on them.
Fu Wanyou went forward and searched carefully. She even scared out the fish hiding in the seaweed. She also didn't see the scissors that Fu Ming had lost.
Wow, this is really weird.
Not only that, the clownfish were quite frightened by the commotion she made. Two clownfish turned and hid inside the anemone, while the other, slightly larger one, stood in front of the anemone and kept spitting at Fu Wan.
Well, that was pretty rude.
Fu Wan found it amusing and couldn't help but reach out to tease the clownfish. Fu Ming felt a strange sense of security because Fu Wan was beside him.
He searched the spot where he had just put the scissors, but unsurprisingly, he couldn't find them.
That's strange. A pair of scissors can't just disappear into thin air!
Fu Ming and Fu Wan were completely baffled. After a moment of contemplation, Fu Wan suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
She had Fu Ming take out another small knife and place it in the same spot.
After finishing her operation, she pulled Fu Ming aside to hide on a nearby rock and observe the movements around Xiao Dao.
Fu Ming actually thought this method was a bit absurd, but he had no other choice but to do as Fu Wan said.
The two hid behind the rocks, and after a while, the dagger lay safely on the rocks.
Is this approach not going to work?
Just as the brother and sister were at their wits' end, Fu Ming suddenly felt a movement on his heel. He unconsciously shook it twice, thinking that his flippers had accidentally gotten stuck on the coral.
However, after he shook his feet a couple of times, there was still some movement from his flippers. Fu Ming belatedly felt a chill on his back and looked down at his feet with Fu Wan.
This sight made Fu Wan burst into laughter.
A cannonball fish, about 30 centimeters long, was baring its large teeth and biting hard at Fu Ming's flippers.
If he had noticed it two minutes later, the fish would have bitten his leg.
!!
Damn those cannonball fish!
It's a creature that has fish to live on but no fish to raise!
Fu Ming swam aggressively toward the cannonball fish. He was fierce, and the cannonball fish was fierce too. The two of them fought fiercely, making Fu Wan want to facepalm.
But just then, Fu Wan glanced around and discovered that the dagger on the reef was gone again!
Holy crap, this is like seeing a ghost in broad daylight!
Fu Wan quickly swam up and searched again.
Like the scissors, the dagger also vanished without a trace.
It's not in seaweed, not in the crevices of rocks, and certainly not in coral reefs.
This time, not only Fu Ming, but even Fu Wan felt her hair stand on end.
She thought for a moment, then drew her own dagger.
However, she didn't place it on the rock, but instead carefully examined it from the side.
Upon closer inspection, she indeed discovered something amiss.
The seaweed among the rocks showed signs of being crushed.
Fu Wan used her dagger to part the seaweed and discovered a narrow cave hidden behind it.
She picked up the dagger and brandished it in front of the cave in the rock; the dagger could fit inside, but her hand couldn't.
However, just as she put the dagger away, a fish head suddenly emerged from the rocky cave, startling Fu Wan so much that she took two or three steps back.
Leopard-patterned moray eel!
So it was this guy!
If Fu Wan hadn't reacted quickly and dodged just now, the dagger in her hand would probably have been bitten by the sea eel and dragged into the cave.
It seems she should be able to find out where the missing scissors and knife went.
Just then, Fu Ming returned carrying a harpoon.
He chased the triggerfish away, and Fu Wan saw the harpoon in his hand, deciding to confront the moray eel head-on.
Are you kidding me? Two people can take down a moray eel, right?
Most importantly, she had only glanced at it a few times, and the leopard-skinned sea eel only weighed about five or six pounds.
It's not even half the size of the moray eel she caught before!
Fu Wan raised her harpoon and plunged it into the hole, stirring it around. The sea eel was enraged and, sure enough, ran out.
Although Fu Ming didn't understand Fu Wan's actions, when he saw the sea eel come out, he thought that Fu Wan was going to spear the sea eel and take it back.
The leopard-print moray eel from last time was actually quite good.
Adding some minced garlic sauce and steaming it also gives it a unique flavor.
Perhaps sensing the murderous intent in Fu Ming's eyes, the sea eel fought with Fu Wan for a while before turning around and hurriedly hiding in the cave.
Just as Fu Wan was about to go up and get the moray eel out again, a bunch of things flew out of the rocky cave one after another.
Scissors, short knives, and all sorts of shiny little gadgets.
Fu Wan even saw several pearls the size of eggs.
Holy crap, is this a gold coin explosion?
Fu Wan had gone into the water dozens, if not hundreds, but this was the first time she had ever seen such a scene.
It seems that this fish likes shiny things. When Fu Ming placed his short knife and scissors on the reef, the sunlight shone on them.
The blade reflected light, which is why the moray eel secretly took them back to its nest.
Now, probably because they see that Fu Wan is not someone to be trifled with, they've simply thrown these things out again.
Interesting, another leopard-spotted moray eel that has become sentient!
The previous sea eel, which had become a spirit, led Fu Wan to seize territory, but Fu Wan eventually discovered the golden needles and medical books.
It would be impolite not to pick up the things that have been thrown right in front of you.
Fu Ming was also blinded by the wealth before him. He dug out several pink pearls the size of pigeon eggs from the seaweed and also found two gold coins.
Fu Wan put away the several egg-sized white pearls, and then she also found two sparkling red stones.
This was no ordinary stone. Fu Wan examined it under the sunlight and noticed that it seemed to have a shimmering effect.
These are two gemstones!
Besides these, there were also many worthless seashells, which Fu Wan thought about but didn't want, and piled back at the entrance of the rocky cave.
Finally, Fu Ming's short knife and scissors were put away.
Fu Ming felt a little embarrassed, but if the sea eel liked them, it wouldn't be a bad idea to give it these two tools.
After all, he could have as many scissors and daggers as he wanted back home; he had obtained some truly valuable treasures from the sea eel!
Fu Wan rolled her eyes at him. If the scissors and dagger were left in the sea, they would definitely be covered in rust within a month. Then the moray eels would have to throw them out and pollute the environment!
