"Wonderful sound! Dawn!"
Gu Lili waved and called out to the two figures.
The two were looking down near the rocks by the sea. Gu Lili guessed that Gu Chenxi must have taken Liu Miaoyin to catch sea snails.
Sea snails can attach themselves to rocks without needing to go into the water, which is quite safe.
Upon hearing Gu Lili's voice, the two quickly raised their heads.
It seemed to be Gu Lili, so he quickly waved to her.
Gu Lili led Gu Huanhuan and Xiao Mulian quickly toward the reef.
"Sister Lili, Sister Huanhuan, this ocean is just too beautiful!" Little Mulan exclaimed as they walked.
Gu Huanhuan spotted a starfish nearby, ran over, picked it up, and handed it to Xiao Mulian.
"That's right! The ocean is not only beautiful, but it also has a lot of delicious food, and it was my sister who discovered that it's edible!" Gu Huanhuan said proudly.
For example, there are crabs that can pinch people, hard conch shells, and bouncy sea cucumbers.
If Gu Lili hadn't discovered that it was edible, none of them would have known.
Holding the starfish, Xiao Mulian looked at Gu Huanhuan and praised, "Sister Huanhuan, your sister is really amazing!"
Gu Lili quickly walked forward; the words of these two made her feel somewhat guilty.
When the three of them arrived in front of Gu Chenxi and the others, Gu Lili noticed that the small wooden bucket they had brought was already half full.
"Wow! You two are something else! You've got stir-fried snails with chives for tonight!" Gu Lili joked.
It contains all kinds of snails. You can boil them in water and then use bamboo skewers to pick out the meat.
Stir-fry with some green peppers and chives, and the flavor is incredibly delicious, perfect with rice.
"Lili, can this really taste good?!" Liu Miaoyin asked incredulously.
Although Gu Chenxi told her that the snails were edible, she was somewhat skeptical.
Like everyone else, my first thought was, how can I eat something so hard?
Moreover, it has a fishy smell, making it hard to imagine what it tastes like.
"Of course you can eat it! I'll stir-fry it tonight, and you'll definitely love it." Gu Lili said, prying a small conch off the rock and putting it into the bucket.
They arrived at the wrong time today, missing the high tide.
If we happen to catch a high tide, there will definitely be even more seafood.
Liu Miaoyin continued picking up the seashells with some skepticism.
Although I don't know what it tastes like, it's still quite fun to pick it up and play with it.
Xiao Mulan and Gu Huanhuan also joined the ranks of those collecting seashells.
There are many puddles left behind by the highest tide among the rocks on the beach.
Gu Lili glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention to her, then put her hand into the puddle.
There were many kinds of seafood inside.
Gu Lili thought that since Liu Miaoyin had come all this way, she should naturally make sure she had a good time.
Since the tide isn't receding, let's create the illusion of it receding ourselves.
As Gu Lili walked, she threw fresh seafood into a small puddle beside her.
After doing all this, Gu Lili didn't make a fuss. Instead, she planned to let the four of them find out for themselves, so they could have some fun.
Because Gu Lili was here, the people in the village were sensible and did not approach this area.
So there's no worry about anyone stealing the seafood from this puddle.
Gu Lili waited for a long time before realizing that none of the four people had noticed the puddle.
Gu Lili felt somewhat helpless. If things continued like this, they would have to find another place to collect seashells, and then they would be even less likely to find the fish, shrimp, and crabs in the puddles.
Having no other choice, Gu Lili picked up a stone and threw it into a puddle not far away.
With a 'thump', the sound indeed attracted the attention of the four people.
Xiao Mulan and Gu Huanhuan were the first to come over and check the situation.
The two little girls both leaned out to look at the puddle that had splashed water, only to find that there were several fish in it.
He jumped up with joy.
"Look, ladies! There are fish!" Gu Huanhuan exclaimed.
Her little face turned rosy with excitement.
Little Mulan was also very happy. This was her first time at the seaside, and she never expected to be so lucky as to see fish.
Moreover, she had never seen this fish before.
It's actually colorful! That's amazing!
Upon hearing this, Gu Chenxi and Liu Miaoyin quickly walked towards the two children.
Gu Lili pretended to follow along as well.
"Oh my, isn't this a parrotfish? Wow, my Huanhuan and Xiaomulian have such sharp eyes!" Gu Lili praised, pretending to be impressed.
The two children enjoyed it very much, rolled up their trouser legs, took off their shoes, and went down to catch fish.
The puddle was only below their knees, so it was safe.
However, this fish seemed a bit difficult to catch. Just as they touched its tail, the fish jumped up, splashing water all over the two of them.
The two children screamed, then burst into laughter.
This made Liu Miaoyin and Gu Chenxi also eager to try it.
I also want to go down and catch fish with them.
But there was only one fish in the puddle, and she was too embarrassed to compete with the child for it, so she could only watch longingly.
As I looked around, my eyes suddenly caught sight of another puddle on the side.
There seemed to be something swimming inside.
She quickly went closer to take a look, and found that it wasn't a fish, but something she had never seen before, which looked rather frightening.
"Lili, come quick and look, what is this?"
Gu Lili had already noticed that area, and was thinking to herself, "My dear young lady, you've finally discovered the gift I prepared for you."
Gu Lili leaned closer to take a look and covered her mouth in surprise.
"Hey, Miaoyin, this is an octopus! It's delicious, hurry and catch it!"
Liu Miaoyin was somewhat frightened; looking at its menacing appearance, she simply couldn't bring herself to do it.
Gu Lili then realized that she had been a little careless; she wasn't afraid of octopuses.
Oh, I forgot, Liu Miaoyin and the others have never seen this before.
Gu Chenxi leaned closer and said, "Miaoyin is too scared to grab it, I'll do it."
As she spoke, Gu Chenxi reached into the puddle and grabbed an octopus from the edge of it.
Because Gu Lili was bought from the mall, she wasn't as lively as a wild one.
Gu Chenxi grabbed him in one go.
Liu Miaoyin stared wide-eyed at Gu Chenxi's actions.
She quickly brought over the bucket so that Gu Chenxi could put the octopus in.
Gu Chenxi easily put the octopus into the bucket. Seeing that the octopus was scary but harmless, Liu Miaoyin was eager to try it herself.
After putting down the octopus in her hand, Gu Chenxi prepared to catch another one.
Liu Miaoyin grabbed Gu Chenxi in one go.
"Miaoyin, what's wrong?" Gu Chenxi asked.
Gu Chenxi smiled shyly, "Chenxi, how about I try this one?"
Gu Lili couldn't help but laugh when she saw Liu Miaoyin's expression of wanting to grab her but also being afraid.
Gu Chenxi nodded and made room for Liu Miaoyin.
Just as Liu Miaoyin was about to put her hand in, a scream pierced the sky.
