Chapter 119 An unexpected surprise
Suddenly, an energy shield with aqua-blue light enveloped Hua Yang. The layers of aqua-blue ripples looked like a combination of the water shield and bubble shield that Hua Yang had cast.
Wu Tianqi was about to retract his power when he saw this, but Hua Yang said, "Don't stop, burn until the shield disappears."
He didn't understand Hua Yang's intention, but because he trusted Hua Yang, he continued to release flames to burn the water shield covering Hua Yang.
Everyone watching was wondering, since Hua Yang wanted Wu Tianqi to burn the bead, why did he waste his own supernatural powers to activate the shield?
Was this to test the strength of Wu Tianqi's ability? Or was it to test how long his shield could last? What everyone didn't expect was that this shield wasn't put out by Hua Yang at all, but a water shield that was activated by the pearl with attributes when it was attacked.
In just over a minute, the shield outside Hua Yang's body broke, and Wu Tianqi quickly withdrew his hand.
"A little more than a minute. The ping-pong ball-sized pearl can maintain the shield for one minute under the attack of a level 2 psychic. Moreover, as long as you hold the pearl in your hand, the shield can cover you as well." This result surprised Hua Yang very much.
She looked inward at the largest pearl oyster in the Spirit River. What surprised Hua Yang was that in such a large oyster shell, there was not a single pearl larger than a quail egg. Although each pearl was round and plump, the sky blue beads looked extremely ordinary. Although they were all plump and pleasing, compared with the two ping-pong ball-sized pearls, they really did not give people a sense of surprise.
But when she took out a sky blue bead and held it in her hand, a gentle and moist blue water light flashed, and she sensed that the water energy in this pearl was a hundred times that of a pearl the size of a ping-pong ball.
Is this the concentrated essence?
According to the shield Wu Tianqi created when he set fire to the ping-pong ball-sized pearl just now, it lasted for more than a minute. This sky blue pearl is a hundred times larger than that pearl, so the shield it creates should be able to resist a level 2 mutant for about an hour and a half.
Now, except for her mother and He Xiaojun, everyone in the team has awakened their special powers. She will pick a slightly larger bead and make a pendant for her mother to wear as a necklace for self-defense.
Gu Xiaoyue ran to Hua Yang and looked at the pearls in Hua Yang's hand. The pearls that should have been bright and shiny had now become dull. She held the pearls in her hands so hard that she almost cried.
"Prodigal son, prodigal son, auntie, you have to take good care of your Yangyang!"
Hua Yang patted Gu Xiaoyue's head and saw that she was still looking at the waste bead in her hand as if she was holding a chicken, so she said to everyone: "Prepare lunch first, I will give you a surprise later." She did not intend to tell everyone about her new discovery immediately.
In the end, Lin Shuyuan lost to Hua Jianming by five fish. But the problem was that he was a big boss of the base and never cooked in the kitchen. Hua Yang and others didn't want to spoil their stomachs. So Lin Shuyuan rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to serve Meng Yi and Li Xiaoyu.
The lunch was three kinds of tuna, braised fish head and tail, steamed fish belly and sashimi. After everyone's discussion, the sea hare was decided to be made with chopped pepper. The clam meat was added with wild vegetables and green bamboo shoots and stir-fried with peppers. There was also tomato scrambled eggs and vegetable soup, which were a must for every meal.
Hua Yang gave Meng Yi a few goose eggs and asked her to pickle them, seal them in a jar, and then put them into the space.
She had emptied all the pickled vegetable jars in the cellar of Hua Jianshen's house and brought them into the space. But there were no salted duck eggs. Perhaps pregnant women have a changeable taste, she suddenly missed the taste of salted duck eggs, so she asked Meng Yi to pickle goose eggs and then stored them.
When lunch was served, Hua Yang handed the red wine to her father. Hua Yang, who was already very hungry because of the long time under the sea, ate delicious dishes, drank refreshing hot water, and ate rice with plump grains. But the moment she smelled the red wine, her stomach churned.
Without waiting for everyone to react, Hua Yang covered her mouth and leaned over the fence on the deck and started vomiting violently.
"What's wrong with Yangyang?" Hua Jianming took a sip of red wine and became worried when he saw his daughter suddenly run to the deck to vomit.
Li Xiaoyu was going to go see Hua Yang, but was stopped by Gu Xiaoyue. "Aunt, you guys eat, I'll go see her."
Gu Xiaoyue was reluctant to put down the food in her hand, so she walked towards Hua Yang, holding a piece of sashimi in one hand and chewing a mouthful of stir-fried clam meat in her mouth.
Hua Yang vomited for a while, throwing up all the food she had just eaten. When Gu Xiaoyue came over, the smell of clam meat mixed with the smell of sashimi in Gu Xiaoyue's hand made Hua Yang's stomach, which had already recovered a little, churn again.
After she had almost vomited out all the stomach acid, she took out the spiritual water and drank it madly, then walked away from Gu Xiaoyue, pointed at her and said unhappily: "Gu Xiaoyue, stay away from me."
Gu Xiaoyue looked at Hua Yang's pale face and thought she was sick, so she asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you? Let me take a look at you."
Gu Xiaoyue was a military doctor after all, with her family's medical skills passed down, and her grandfather was a famous Chinese medicine doctor in Kyoto. She had naturally learned Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis. She approached Hua Yang without hesitation, and grabbed her wrist with her other clean hand and stretched out three fingers.
Hua Yang was surprised that Gu Xiaoyue could take pulses with Chinese medicine. She was so shocked that she quickly shook her hand away. However, she could still see from Gu Xiaoyue's unbelieving and surprised look that she knew about her pregnancy.
So he quickly made a hushing gesture, signaling her to keep quiet.
However, the taste of the sashimi in Gu Xiaoyue's hand made him feel nauseous again, and he vomited for a long time before he recovered.
"Let's go back and eat first." After Hua Yang recovered, she went back to the dining table with Gu Xiaoyue. However, she really couldn't stand the smell of fish and alcohol on the table, so she had to tell everyone that she was not feeling well and went back to her room to rest.
Li Xiaoyu was very worried about her daughter's health, but she didn't think about her pregnancy at all. She looked at Gu Xiaoyue and asked, "Xiaoyue, what happened to Yangyang? Why is she vomiting so much?"
Gu Xiaoyue thought of an excuse for a long time and replied, "Maybe, I'm too tired and a little seasick."
Lin Shuyuan knew Gu Xiaoyue's character very well. She would be very awkward and speechless when she lied. He looked at Gu Xiaoyue, glared at her and said, "Go check on Xiaohua after dinner. Medicines are in short supply now. Try to give her a massage to see if it can help. I don't know how much of your grandfather's skills you have learned."
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoyue murmured to herself: She dare not give a massage to a pregnant woman casually. What if the massage is too much and has the effect of activating blood circulation, which may cause miscarriage.
But he still said, "I understand, uncle."
Meng Yi and Wu Tianqi looked at each other, and Wu Tianqi said to smooth things over: "Let Lao Meng make some light vegetable porridge for Hua Yang later. The wind is strong on the sea, and she has been swimming in the sea for so long, she might have caught a cold."
"Yes, Sister Yu, don't worry, Hua Yang might just be tired recently."
At this time, Xiao Ming hurriedly shoveled the rice in the bowl, ate it quickly with a few bites of vegetables, and then rushed into Hua Yang's room.
Hua Yang was lying on the bed when she saw Xiao Ming coming in and asked, "Xiao Ming, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Ming sat next to Hua Yang, touched her belly and asked, "Sister, is little sister being naughty again?"
Hua Yang smiled and said, "Yes, little sister is growing up every day, but she is very naughty."
"Sister, doesn't Aunt Xiaoyu know about my sister's situation?"
Hua Yang paused after hearing this and patted Xiao Ming's head: "Yes, Aunt Xiaoyu doesn't know yet. Xiao Ming, you have to promise your sister that you can't tell anyone about your sister's pregnancy without her permission, understand?"
Xiao Ming blinked and nodded, "Yes, I understand. Sister, I miss Dabai."
Hua Yang touched Xiao Ming's head and let him sleep on her side. While comforting him, she also fell asleep.
