Chapter 172: Become a spirit?
When Xu Laoer saw the huge river clam in his eldest brother's arms, his first reaction was to eat it.
River clam soup is so delicious!
Thinking of the delicious clam soup, Xu Laoer's mouth started watering.
"Such a large river clam, could it be a spirit?"
"Brother Xu, this is a clam spirit, let it go!"
Someone among the group of young people nearby spoke up.
"What kind of clam spirit is this?"
"Brother Xu's family has a turtle hermit!"
"yes!"
The young people's voices instantly weakened.
Thinking of Lao Bie, the Turtle Immortal, they recalled the incident of smoke rising from the Xu family's ancestral grave. Thinking about the various changes in the Xu family over the past year, many people felt sad.
But, what can we do?
Of course, turning over stones!
Since there is no clam spirit, then there is a big river clam!
This stuff is so delicious!
In an instant, the stones along the Taohua River were affected.
Not to mention, someone actually found a river clam. Although it wasn't as big as the one Xu Laoer kicked out, not even half as big. However, the size of the river clam was something they had never seen before.
Of course, the most important thing is that these people found more than one.
The two brothers Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao Er did not stay by the river to look for clams, but went home early with the big clams.
When the boss brought the stuff home, the whole family was shocked.
If anyone wasn't surprised, it was the old turtle basking in the sun in the yard. Living in the same Taohua River, the old turtle knew the giant river clam.
When the people from Old Xu's family were watching around the big river clam, the old turtle suddenly came over and knocked over the two brothers, the eldest and second Xu, who were blocking the way.
Then, under the gazes of everyone in the Xu family, the old turtle knocked its head rhythmically on the edge of the big river clam's shell several times, and the shell of the big river clam opened.
And at the moment the clam shell opened, a dazzling light caught the eyes of everyone in the Xu family.
pearl!
A dozen pearls!
They are all round!
The largest one is as big as a longan, and the smallest one is as big as a cherry.
Without even having to find someone to appraise them, Mr. Xu knew how priceless these pearls were.
Of the women in the Xu family, Wang was the most privileged. But the finest pearls she had ever seen were no match for any of the pearls in the belly of this giant river clam.
However, Mr. Xu had seen pearls the size of longans, which belonged to the old lady of the Xu family.
After coming to his senses, Mr. Xu quickly reached out and took out all the pearls from the belly of the big river clam.
Then, the giant river clam slowly closed its shell.
What’s even more amazing is that as the clam’s shell closed, the old turtle actually opened its mouth, bit the edge of the big clam’s shell, and began to drag it towards the corner of the wall.
There is a small puddle in the corner of Old Xu's house. It was dug by Boss Xu as a place for the old turtle to rest according to Old Man Xu's instructions.
In order to ensure that there is always water in the puddle, the family has to add water into it every once in a while.
"Dad, could this old turtle and this river clam really have become spirits?"
What happened just now, including what is happening now, is so magical that it has overturned Boss Xu's cognition.
Old Master Xu rolled his eyes at his eldest son and said, "Everything has a spirit!"
"Any animal that lives long enough will become somewhat magical!"
"How would I know if it's a spirit?"
The idea of spirits and monsters has existed since ancient times.
But no one has seen it.
All the stories about monsters are just hearsay.
But Mr. Xu felt that for some things, it is better to believe in them than not to believe in them.
People, no matter what time, must maintain a certain sense of awe.
"Does that mean we can't drink clam soup anymore?"
In this serious atmosphere, Xu Laoer said something that spoiled the mood.
And he successfully got kicked by Mr. Xu because of this sentence.
Ten chapters, over 10,000 words, am I fierce enough? Please support me, thank you, and finally, good night!
No, finally, let me recommend the book, "The 80s Loved One is a Koi Fish" by Rogue Little Rabbit. It's a pretty interesting period novel, a bit risqué, so don't get too excited when you read it. It might not suit some cute little things, so if you don't like it, feel free to vote for me. I'm open to anything!
