Chapter 66: Chasing the Sea

Chen Qingqing was a little happy to hear this. Ming Peilan wanted to know how to use superpowers, which showed that she began to face her own superpowers.

In the future, Ming Peilan will get more and more accustomed to the existence of superpowers and completely integrate into their team.

"Actually, I don't know much about it. You are the only one with object-type superpowers I have met."

"Maybe you can try to communicate with it, or...next time you encounter a zombie, we will ask you to try it."

"Okay." Ming Peilan agreed.

"Whatever method you have, just use it for me. I want to see how powerful a cane can be."

When she thought of the scene of Chen Qingqing and others chopping zombies on the balcony these days, she was a little excited even though she was over 60 years old.

If she could still save people with a cane at her age, she would have something to brag about to the old man in the underworld.

When she heard Chen Qingqing say that they were going to the sea early in the morning, Ming Peilan said that she wanted to go with them.

She played a lot at the beach when she was young, but since she was paralyzed decades ago, she hadn't really touched the sea for a long time.

The two made an agreement.

Early the next morning, Zhou Weiyue came to pick up Ming Peilan.

Ming Peilan even changed into a new set of clothes, leaning on a cane with great energy, and pushed away Zhou Weiyue's hand that wanted to support her: "I can still walk, no need for help."

Zhou Weiyue smiled and said, "Okay, you are the strongest old lady I have ever seen!"

Walking down the stairs from the back door, Chen Qingqing and others had been waiting for a long time.

Some were holding small shovels, small sleds, and some were carrying a few large white plastic buckets.

Not far away, waves were hitting the shore one after another, but the general trend was to retreat to the depths of the sea, which was low tide.

At low tide, many marine creatures would be left on the beach by the waves, and many creatures would emerge from the sand where they had been hiding for a long time, waiting for the waves to take them into the deep sea.

Xiaohuan looked at his parents expectantly, and only when his mother nodded did he start running towards the sea.

Zhou Weiyue was worried, and she ran closely behind Xiaohuan: "Wait for me!"

The others walked slowly on the beach with Chen Qingqing.

Chen Qingqing took off her shoes and stepped on the beach barefoot. The moment she touched the sand, she seemed to have returned to her childhood.

Her father and mother held her hands and walked along the coastline on the beach, splashing water.

Now she was walking on the beach with her husband, holding her daughter.

"Sister, can you swim?" Shang Li asked.

Chen Qingqing shook her head.

Her parents, who were landlubbers, had never taught her to swim. After she went to college, she left the beach and naturally never touched the sea again.

"I can't swim either." Shang Li shook his head, "I was planning to learn it during the winter vacation."

But the end of the world came first.

As he said that, Shang Li turned his head to look at He Chuan, who was staring at the beach at his feet, and he could tell at a glance that he was looking for seafood.

Shang Li walked over with a smile and said: "There is nothing here. You can only find things at the deeper part of the beach."

He Chuan was stunned, then raised his head and walked inside.

Shang Li raised his eyebrows: "You can tell at a glance that you don't understand the ocean. You don't even know where the seafood is, so you definitely can't swim."

He Chuan paused: "No, I can swim."

"I started learning to swim when I was six."

Shang Li was stunned: "Six years old!?" "

Well..." He Chuan thought for a while, "My dad wanted to train me to be an athlete, so he let me learn swimming, basketball, and table tennis since I was a child. He himself is a calligrapher and Chinese painter, so he also taught me calligraphy and Chinese painting."

"But after discovering that I was interested in medicine, he didn't force me to learn anything else."

Shang Li sighed: "It seems that your dad has high hopes for you!"

"My dad never let me learn anything, nor did he teach me anything... No, if you think about it carefully, he still gave me a talent."

Qian Qian was curious: "What talent?"

"Of course it's my eloquence!" Shang Li looked very proud and squinted at Qian Qian, "Didn't you find that I'm very eloquent?"

Qian Qian was speechless and suddenly pointed at the ground not far in front of Shang Li and shouted, "There's a hole there!"

Everyone looked over and saw small holes one after another on the ground, with countless small round sand balls piled outside the holes.

Qian Gan shook his arms: "It's so dense and disgusting, what is this?"

He Chuan frowned: "Could it be the excrement of something?"

Chen Qingqing couldn't help laughing, interrupting their wild thoughts: "This is the 'sand' that crabs have processed. There are very small crabs in the hole."

These small crabs will look for food in the sand, and after eating, they will roll into a small ball and throw it aside, and then continue to look for food in the newly dug sand.

This is how it eats.

Shang Li was quite surprised and squatted down to poke the hole.

Xiao Huan, who had just been running wildly, also came over. He happened to hear Chen Qingqing's explanation and saw Shang Li's actions. He couldn't help but shout, "Uncle! You blocked the door of the little crabs' home!"

Shang Li quickly retracted his hand and said in a panic, "No, no!"

Seeing the two of them so anxious, Ming Peilan, who had been silent, couldn't help but explain, "It's okay, they will dig another hole."

Xiao Huan and Shang Li were relieved.

"But, can the little crabs in here be eaten?"

Qian Qian was more concerned about this problem.

Chen Qingqing shook her head and said, "The crabs in there are very small, not enough for you to fill your teeth. If you want to catch big crabs, you have to go inside to have a look."

Qian Qian immediately became energetic and walked inside with a bucket.

Several people also walked in the direction where the waves left. Soon, the sharp-eyed Shang Li saw a cat's eye snail lying on the sand.

Xiao Huan squatted down and poked the shell of the cat's eye snail with interest: "Wow! It's so big!"

Shang Li picked up the cat's eye snail, and the thick snail meat immediately retracted and sprayed water all around.

Xiao Huan quickly raised his hand to block it.

"So fun!"

Xiao Huan raised his head and looked at Chen Qingqing with sparkling eyes: "Mom, can I keep it?"

Chen Qingqing hesitated: "This..."

"No, this is for eating. If you want to keep it, there are small fish in the sea that you can take home to keep." Ming Peilan answered for Chen Qingqing.

"Okay! Then I'll keep the fish!"

Xiao Huan was not unhappy because of this, and still turned around happily to look for the fish.

Zhou Weiyue followed Xiaohuan closely. When they walked a little further away, Chen Qingqing heard Ming Peilan say, "This kind of thing cannot be kept alive. Even if you soften your heart and agree to Xiaohuan, it will die in two days. Won't Xiaohuan be even more sad?"

Chen Qingqing also knew this truth, but since her rebirth, she found it increasingly difficult to reject her children's requests and ideas.

She seemed to want to double the love that could not be continued in her previous life to Xiaohuan and Sunshun. As long as she could do it, she would not refuse.

And her husband knew what she was thinking, and most of the time he would go along with her wishes, just to make her feel better.

But sometimes agreeing to everything is not a good thing.

For example, Xiaohuan's request just now.

Xiaohuan is a sentimental child. If he really raises this cat-eye snail that will not live long, and the snail dies a few days later, he will definitely be very sad.

Seeing this, Ming Peilan sighed: "I have never given birth to a child, so there are some things I am not qualified to say, but you are in a confused situation, so I can't help but say a few words."

Chen Qingqing was stunned and said quickly: "Aunt Ming, just say whatever you want."

Ming Peilan: "Xiaohuan is not an unreasonable child. On the contrary, he is the most sensible and obedient child I have ever seen. There are some things you can tell him, and he will understand."

Chen Qingqing nodded seriously: "Thank you, Aunt Ming, I know."

Chen Qingqing looked at Xiaohuan not far away: "Next time I will tell Xiaohuan that Xiaoyu will be easier to raise."

Ming Peilan said "Oh" and shook her head.

"This matter is not included in 'some things', and sea fish are not easy to keep alive."

Chen Qingqing was confused: "Then you said to let Xiaohuan catch small fish..."

Ming Peilan: "Small fish swim very fast, he can't catch them, so there is no need to keep them."
