"Luyao, there are crabs and octopuses over there, do you want to catch some?" Du Qingmei filled half of the basket with sea urchins, and her eyes began to shift to other ingredients.
During the time she became a manta ray, Du Qingmei had the fish instinct to prey on plankton and small fish and shrimps.
Every time, she basically relied on the two fins growing on her head to put fish and shrimps into her mouth and swallowed them whole, without any taste.
It was a rare seafood buffet, but she couldn't enjoy it properly, and she was very depressed for a while.
Now that there is a furry shop, she looks at this sea again, which is almost like her own backyard farm, and everything she likes to eat is everywhere, and she wants to bring all of them back to the shop.
"You can catch it if you want to eat it, and I'll pick up the trash for a while." Lu Yao felt that the sea urchin he picked up was enough to eat, so he started to focus on picking up trash again, without paying much attention to other aquatic creatures.
Under this seabed, there is a thick layer of plastic garbage piled up, mostly plastic bottles, disposable lunch boxes, juice boxes, and plastic bags.
Each one ranges from 5-20 grams and is easy to collect.
As long as you keep picking it up, your popularity will rise quickly.
The task of picking up garbage was easier than expected, and it was even a bit of a relief. Lu Yao wanted to accumulate enough popularity points to expand the fish tank as soon as possible.
The little devil rays jump up and down near the coral reef walls. Due to the fish's body, it is difficult to catch the long-legged deep-sea octopus that is good at camouflaging itself like sea urchins, and the crabs that wield large pincers.
"Lu Yao, I can't catch it, help me!" Du Qingmei asked for help.
Lu Yao had been in the sea for a long time and began to feel uncomfortable, especially her hands and feet were cold and slightly stiff.
It was time to go back.
She swam to the side of the little manta ray and tried to help catch crabs and octopuses.
The octopus was too flexible, with long and slippery legs, and ran fast, so it was impossible to catch it.
Lu Yao quickly picked up a few crabs and threw them into the basket, "There are enough sea urchins, and crabs can be fried with some salted egg yolks. Come again next time."
When the man and the fish were returning, they finally found that they had swam near the closed school of fish.
Lu Yao couldn't help but swam closer to observe.
Normal fish really don't want to get close to this place, but only when you look closer can you realize that this school of fish is huge in number and rich in variety.
From a distance, you can only see larger fish, such as man-eating sharks, dolphins, seals, etc.
Only when you get closer can you find that there are many pocket-sized species among them, octopus, jellyfish, shrimp, seahorse...
Without exception, all are in a state of backstroke.
Lu Yao also found that almost all of them have an obvious wound on their bodies, just like the bright red cross wound on Du Qingmei's abdomen.
She stretched out her finger and poked it, and the fish floated a little further away with the force, completely ignoring her.
Du Qingmei was greedy for sea urchins and urged them, "They don't react, they just love to bask in the sun. Let's go back first and eat sea urchins."
Lu Yao's body had indeed reached its limit and he needed to get ashore quickly. He didn't stay any longer and turned around to swim back.
Du Qingmei added, "It's a pity that we didn't catch the big octopus. I also love the iron plate octopus."
In the closed fish school, a peacock mantis shrimp rolled its eyes, turned its body, and followed them silently.
Then, another anemone fish swung its tail fin, turned over, and followed slowly.
Furry Shop.
Ji Feiming sat cross-legged by the door, and the penguins and sweet coffee crawled all over him, meowing.
The shop owner had been out for a long time. He was very anxious and really had no intention of teasing the cat. Seeing Lu Yao and the little manta ray swimming back from a distance, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yao returned to the store and unloaded the machine. He felt exhausted all over and lay on the white beach unwilling to move.
"What took you so long?" Ji Feiming handed over the towel and looked at the time. The shop owner had been in the sea for nearly two hours.
Lu Yao put on a towel and handed the basket over, "I caught some sea urchins and crabs and will cook them for later."
Ji Feiming looked at a large basket full of fresh sea urchins and was speechless.
Du Qingmei entered the store and turned into a human again. The clothes and hair on her body were all dry. She picked up the porcelain and sat on the low table by the window to rest. Lu
Yao went back to the bathroom to change out of his diving suit and take a shower.
Outside the store.
The colorful mantis shrimp was circling anxiously.
A furry little shop, there is actually a shop that looks like a cat cafe.
The people and manta rays who were just making a fuss in the sea to pick sea urchins all went in.
They picked up a lot of sea urchins and crabs, and discussed making fried crabs with egg yolks. Would he, who has become an arthropod, be eaten as well?
Suddenly, the adhesive tape appeared at the edge of the transparent wall membrane, as if it had discovered the mantis shrimp. There was a subtle curiosity in its dark pupils, and it stretched out its claws to gently scratch the wall membrane, its little mouth opening and closing, looking silly and well-behaved.
The mantis shrimp suddenly stopped moving its eyes. It slowly approached the wall membrane in fascination and stared at the tape through the air.
It was really a kitten, or a baby kitten!!!
The eyes were round and moist, and the orange soft fur was fluffy, so cute!
The peacock mantis shrimp carefully stretched out its large claws and faced the tape with its claws.
The tape guy, who was trained by the tiger cub to have a conditioned reflex, tilted his head to rub the claws when he saw it stretched out.
Whoosh!!!
The peacock mantis shrimp quickly stretched out its other large claws, and was so happy that he didn't know what to do!
The most adorable furry creature in the world!!!
The peacock mantis shrimp swam in circles on the spot quickly, and after a moment, it regained its composure and met the tape's blank eyes again, and made up its mind to go into the store to take a look.
He wanted so badly to hug this silly little thing.
The mantis shrimp swam to the door and knocked nervously and excitedly.
The door of the store was opened from the inside, and he rushed in, passed through the transparent wall membrane, and landed on the white beach.
Chen Xingyu opened his eyes and was stunned.
He stood up quickly, with long arms and legs, wearing dark green velvet pajamas.
He turned back into a human!
Ji Feiming closed the door casually, trying not to show any abnormality.
Could it be that all the fish in the sea can turn into humans?
The sea urchins and crabs that the shop owner brought back…
he suddenly had a very bad association.
Du Qingmei saw the shiny green shrimps rushing into the door, and turned into a 17 or 18-year-old boy in pajamas. She kindly walked over and pointed to the autarkic school of fish outside the store, "Where did you come from?"
Chen Xingyu saw her and his face suddenly changed. After a while, he understood, "Are you the manta ray?"
Du Qingmei nodded, "You will turn back into a human in this store, and turn into a fish again when you leave."
Chen Xingyu: "So that's how it is."
After chatting with Du Qingmei for a few sentences and simply exchanging names, Chen Xingyu couldn't wait to lower his head to find the tape.
Little Orange was like a fried potato, squatting in front of the transparent wall membrane, looking up to chase the plankton in the water, and occasionally stretching out his claws to scratch it.
Chen Xingyu's heart melted, and he walked over and squatted next to the tape.
Finding it too small, he simply sat down, hugged his legs and watched the plankton that were too small to catch. At
this moment, he felt his restless mood gradually calm down.
Lu Yao came out of the shower and changed into clean clothes. He immediately found that there was a new customer in the store and was in a good mood.
Ji Feiming handed her a strange green paper, "The money paid by the young customer." Lu
Yao took it and observed. The large-denomination green banknote was completely different from the soft girl coins in the world.
However, the system recognized that it was indeed a banknote in this world, with a denomination of one thousand and a purchasing power of about five hundred soft girl coins.
The banknotes are of no use for the time being, but after the snack bar is upgraded, maybe he can go ashore and buy things then.
Lu Yao put away the banknotes, turned to the kitchen, used magic to filter out the poisonous substances in the sea urchins and crabs, then processed them cleanly and served them out on plates.
He separated the sea urchin sashimi, raw fish slices and fried crabs with egg yolk for the guests, and Lu Yao also made a portion of sashimi for Erxin.
Pengci, Dai Jiaobu and Tianka were too young to be fed raw food for the time being, and could only watch their mother eat.
Du Qingmei heartbrokenly refused Pengci's coquettish behavior, took Erxin's sashimi from Lu Yao's hand, and began to feed him happily.
Lu Yao handed a plate of seafood platter to Chen Xingyu, who was watching the sea with Dai Jiaobu. The other party thanked him, took it, and was not in a hurry to eat.
But Dumbbell seemed to notice that he had food in his hand. He raised his round head, looked at him aggrievedly, and called out in a cute and adorable way: "Meow~~~"
Chen Xingyu resisted the urge to feed him, looked up at Lu Yao, and his voice trembled: "It's really cute, does it have a name?"
Lu Yao squatted down and gently stroked the little orange that had begun to scratch the guest's trousers and legs with his claws, with a soft expression: "It's called Dumbbell, and it has a Buddhist personality. Its reaction is always a few beats slower than its brothers in the same nest."
Chen Xingyu nodded: "Yes, it moves very slowly."
For a cat, this kind of cuteness is just right.
But if it were a person, it would be hard to be liked if it was so slow and dull.
Lu Yao replied calmly: "Its hobbies are eating and sleeping. It eats the slowest and loves to sleep. It is lazy and dazed all day long. It is not as good at making trouble as fighting, and not as good at being cute as sweet. But this guy is the most popular in the store and has harvested the love of humans unknowingly."
Chen Xingyu's expression changed slightly: "Cats are different from humans. As long as they are cute, they will be favored by humans."
Lu Yao was a little surprised . "Speaking of cuteness, Pengci and Tianka are not inferior to Daigaobu. It eats slowly, but always licks the bowl clean in the end. It is very picky about where to sleep, and likes to lie on the window sill with a small flower pot to bask in the sun. When you see it, you will feel that it seems to be very stupid, but it is
also very scheming." Chen Xingyu was slightly stunned, and suddenly wanted to laugh. The little orange described by the store owner was too cute.
And he just had a competitive heart towards a little orange cat.
Wake up, isn't it natural that cats are cuter than humans?
He slowly ate a plate of seafood, and took a casual nap with Daigaobu, feeling extremely relaxed.
Standing in front of the store, he turned around and said goodbye to Dai Jiaobu: "I'll come to see you next time to take a nap."
The store door opened and closed, and the figure of the pajamas boy disappeared.
Lu Yao slowly turned his head and looked at Du Qingmei, "Did you see that the world outside the door just now doesn't seem to be the sea?"
