What Lu Xuan saw was not something else, but a giant turtle that stuck its head out to bask in the sun.
This soft-shelled turtle is a good thing. It is not only delicious, but also good for skin care, replenishing qi and blood, and strengthening the kidneys and essence.
In addition, the soft-shelled turtles here are pure natural and pollution-free wild species. If you use them to make a soup, it will not only be delicious but also nourishing to the body.
Lu Xuan seized the opportunity and reached out to grab the turtle with his bare hands, but he never expected that the wild turtle would react quickly, retracting its head and sinking to the bottom of the water.
How could he let the "duck" he had already got slip away? Lu Xuan was quick-witted and took action directly, grabbing the edge of her skirt and lifting her up.
It was not until the entire turtle was lifted out of the water that Lu Xuan truly saw the turtle's true appearance. It was over 30 centimeters long, with a gray-black back shell and a gray belly. Its claws were extremely sharp, with the base of the claws black and gray, and the tips of the claws yellowish. It was estimated to weigh at least two kilograms.
When Chen Keyin came back for the third time pushing the cart, Lu Xuan had already come ashore with the huge wild turtle in one hand.
"This is……"
Looking at the turtle with bared fangs and claws in Lu Xuan's hand, Shen Keyin felt a little timid and stepped back involuntarily.
"You're in luck! I'll make you some turtle soup tonight."
Lu Xuan was quite satisfied with today's harvest. He didn't expect that after a heavy rain, he not only harvested more than a dozen freshwater fish, but also seized a big turtle. This wild turtle is a delicacy that may not be available in the city even if you have money.
The two returned to the cave. The original freshwater fish had already filled three basins. Lu Xuan caught two big fish, made a basin for the turtle, put some water in it, and let it stay in it, preparing to come back and kill it to make soup.
Each of them grilled a fish, filled their stomachs, and Lu Xuan prepared to set off.
After all, it was already noon. If we didn't set off now, we might not be able to get back before dark.
Under the scorching sun, carrying the necessary tools, drinking water and food, the two men took the water route again to the place where the yacht was stranded in the east.
Fortunately, after the rain stopped, the wind also became weaker. The east wind that Lu Xuan was worried about did not affect the boat's progress too much. In addition, after several trips, Lu Xuan had improved the oars. Now, with the cooperation of the two, the boat's efficiency has been greatly improved compared to the first time.
In less than an hour, the two arrived at the white sandy beach again.
Listening to the subtle melody played by the waves hitting the beach, feeling the salty sea breeze gently brushing his cheeks, and watching the soft sand gleaming with golden light in the sunlight, Lu Xuan felt that this beach had an indescribable magic that could make people temporarily forget all their worries.
Unfortunately, the two of them were in a hurry today and had no time to enjoy the "sun, beach and cactus", so they had to pass by in a hurry and continue heading east.
But after Lu Xuan rowed for another ten minutes, he discovered a problem: why did the yacht that should have appeared in his sight disappear?
At first, Lu Xuan didn't think much about it. He just thought that it was because of the poor visibility that he hadn't noticed the stranded yacht. However, after the two of them rowed for a distance, Lu Xuan felt more and more that something was wrong, because the beach was almost at the end, and further ahead were places he had never been to.
"Lu Xuan...the boat...the boat seems to have disappeared..."
At this time, Shen Keyin, who was sitting in the back of the boat and was only focused on paddling, also noticed something unusual.
The two looked around in confusion. To the north was the endless sea, to the south was the lush jungle, and to the east was the rising Gobi Desert. Could it be that the ship had grown wings and flew away?
Lu Xuan and Shen Keyin wandered on the sea for a long time, but still had no clue.
Many strange ideas even emerged in Lu Xuan's mind, such as space wormholes and parallel worlds.
It’s not Lu Xuan’s fault that he has such a strange way of thinking. It’s such a huge monster. It was still here yesterday, but disappeared completely after a sleep. It really makes people have wild thoughts.
"You better stay in this boat and don't go anywhere. I'll go to the shore and take a look."
After thinking it over again and again, Lu Xuan decided to go to the shore to check it out in person.
Lu Xuan was still afraid of the group of wild wolves, so he didn't dare to dock the boat directly. Instead, he asked Shen Keyin to stay on the boat and stop the boat in the sea ten meters away from the shore. He jumped into the sea and slowly swam to the shore.
A few minutes later, Lu Xuan arrived at the shore. After making sure that the surroundings were safe, Lu Xuan lowered his head and began to check. Sure enough, he immediately made a discovery: at the junction of the beach and the sea water, the marks of the ship running aground could be vaguely seen.
There is only one possibility.
The heavy rain that started last night loosened the sand and, combined with the tidal force of high and low tides, pushed the yacht, which was already stranded and unstable, back into the sea.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan slapped his head hard, feeling extremely regretful in his heart.
Although he had boarded the ship twice and found a lot of good things, he hoped to get much more than that. Not to mention the far things, he had not even explored the entire top floor, which made Lu Xuan feel that he was at a loss.
You know, this is a whole floor. I don’t know how many good things can be found here, but now it’s all given to the sea.
The most important thing is that Lu Xuan always felt that he would be able to find some clues about the mobile phone on this ship.
Now, the entire ship has "run away from home", and the remaining supplies and clues are all gone.
The more Lu Xuan thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He simply sat down on the beach and slapped himself in the face.
However, as the saying goes, there are unexpected events in life. After making some adjustments, Lu Xuan still comforted himself not to get stuck in a dead end.
Looking at it in a positive way, at least I got a lot of good things yesterday, especially Chen Keyin’s medicine. If it was a day later, I might not have gotten anything.
Besides... Lu Xuan felt that maybe one day the ship would come back again by accident due to some weather reasons.
After comforting himself, Lu Xuan got up from the ground again and waved to Shen Keyin who was still waiting for him anxiously on the boat.
Shen Keyin on the boat was always keeping an eye on Lu Xuan on the beach. She saw him sitting on the ground and slapping his head from time to time. He was obviously in a bad mood. The more she watched, the more anxious she became. She almost got off the boat and swam over.
It wasn't until she saw Lu Xuan smiling and waving at her that the girl finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as Lu Xuan was about to return to the boat to explain the situation to Shen Keyin, he caught a glimpse of traces on the beach not far away...
Footprints again...
and……
Another pair, one big and one small...
