Section 168 Shark infestation
When sperm whales swallow large mollusks, the jaws and tongue teeth accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract and stimulate the intestines, and the intestines secrete a special wax-like substance that wraps up the food residues and slowly forms ambergris.
Some sperm whales vomit out the coagulation, while others excrete it from the intestines.
That is, ambergris is actually the vomit, excrement of sperm whales.
Ambergris is very useful.
It not only has high medicinal value, but also is a valuable Chinese medicine for curing diseases and prolonging life.
The most commonly used is as a high-grade fragrance, as a fixative for perfumes, and can be formulated into high-end perfumes.
As a result, the value of the precious ingredient sought after by perfume makers is more expensive than gold, and ambergris is also known as "floating gold on the sea" because of its high price and rarity.
Ambergris is slightly less dense than seawater, so most of the time it can be suspended in seawater.
Chen Rui guessed that this piece of ambergris was washed onto the beach by the waves just at high tide and was discovered by Xizi.
If you don't pick it up, you will be swept into the sea again at high tide.
Chen Rui handed this piece of ambergris to Xizi and said to Xizi, "This is a piece of ambergris, a very good thing." Judging from the color of this piece of ambergris, the texture should be regarded as the top grade, this texture of ambergris can be sold for more than 4,000 yuan per gram, and this piece of ambergris of about 230 grams can be sold for more than 800,000 yuan. ”
Ambergris discharged into the sea is light black at first, but gradually turns gray and light gray under the action of seawater. Finally it becomes white.
White ambergris is of the best quality. It has to be immersed in seawater for more than 100 years. Rinse out all the impurities to become the top grade in ambergris.
The ambergris is grayish-white, and it has been soaked in seawater for about 7 or 80 years, and the quality is slightly worse than that of the white one.
Despite this, this piece of ambergris is a very fine spice material.
Ambergris was first discovered by Kiko, and of course it is owned by Kiko.
Kiko took the ambergris and looked at it in her hand.
Turning his head and beckoning not far away.
One was dressed in a black suit with a grim expression. A man with a headset behind his ear walked over and bowed to Kiko.
"Miss."
Kiko handed the ambergris to the bodyguard.
It seems that Kiko was born in Japan, her real name is a family, and she is a young lady from a famous family.
In fact, Chen Rui has long had some guesses about Xizi's identity.
Xizi's first image of Chen Rui was beautiful, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and her smile was very kind and cute, and two small dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth when she laughed.
The temperament is very pure, very clean, and the character is relatively quiet and natural, giving people the feeling of being very cultivated.
It's very cute and sweet. Youthful and energetic.
Only by being born into a noble family can we cultivate this kind of natural charm and temperament and cultivation that exudes from the inside out.
Chen Rui's eyes looked at the sea.
The waves roll. Roll up a pile of snow.
At this time, it is the time of dusk, and the afterglow of the setting sun is sprinkled on the sea, which is very beautiful.
On such a beautiful picture, Chen Rui saw some discord.
Chen Rui had cultivated the Immortal Cultivation Method, and all aspects of his body, as well as his senses of sight, hearing, smell, and sixth sense of potential danger had been greatly strengthened.
For example, Chen Rui's eyesight is very keen, as sharp as an eagle, and when a normal person's eyesight is greater than 500m, he has a vague image of the scene, but Chen Rui can see the outline of the object clearly at a distance of more than 1000m away from the object, which is very clear.
Chen Rui saw a dorsal fin on the sea a few hundred meters away, the dorsal fin was very large, paddling through the water, swimming very fast, swimming towards the shallow sea where many tourists were swimming and surfing.
Chen Rui can be very sure that this is the dorsal fin of a shark, not the fin of a dolphin.
Because there are more than a dozen pink dolphins living in the lake in Chen Rui's pregnant sea pearl space, the posterior edge of the dolphin's dorsal fin is in a large arc.
And Chen Rui was on the sea a few hundred meters away and saw that the back edge of the dorsal fin was almost straight, which was the dorsal fin of a shark.
It is not uncommon for sharks to attack people in shallow waters where humans swim and surf at sea.
In 1916, for example, there were five shark attacks off the coast of New Jersey.
Every year, there are 30~50 incidents of sharks actively attacking humans in the world, and most of the attacks occur in waters with frequent human activities at sea within a few hundred meters from the coast.
Even in shallow areas where the water level reaches only the thighs, there is a possibility of being attacked by sharks.
In order to prevent shark attacks, people generally install shark prevention nets in areas where human recreation activities at sea are frequent.
Obviously, there are no shark nets in this area.
A shark may be attracted by the blood from an unscarred wound on a tourist's body, or the stuff of a woman menstruating.
You know, the shark's sense of smell is very sensitive, and it smells blood from a few kilometers away, even if there is a small amount of blood in the water.
The shark swam to the shallow sea and swam past the tourists who were swimming, playing, and surfing in the sea.
Tourists were unaware that a shark was swimming towards them.
Danger is approaching them.
Chen Rui took off his shirt.
The very well-proportioned, strong muscles of the body are exposed, and they are full of healthy beauty and strength beauty.
The clothes Chen Rui is wearing today are blue, which is very conspicuous and eye-catching in comparison with the surrounding environment.
Chen Rui waved his clothes and shouted loudly in English, "dangerous, dangerous, there are sharks in the sea, everyone hurry ashore." ”
Tourists swimming and surfing in the sea noticed Chen Rui's unusual behavior.
English is the most widely spoken language in the world.
It is the official language of 45 countries and is spoken by one-third of the world's population.
Many tourists from all over the world understood Chen Rui's words.
Dangerous!
There are sharks in the sea!
Everyone subconsciously looked at the surrounding sea, and there was no trace of sharks on the surface of the sea.
The shark has dived to the bottom of the sea.
Many people chose to believe Chen Rui's words, and no one joked about this kind of thing.
A lot of people are skeptical, but apparently they won't risk their lives to confirm if there are sharks.
Suddenly, the sea was in chaos, and everyone rushed to the beach with all their strength.
"Oh, mygod, something hit me in the thigh, it's a shark."
"I saw the shark, and he showed a dorsal fin."
The sea became even more chaotic.
In this shallow sea area with a depth of less than 3 meters, there is a strong murderous motive lurking. (To be continued......)
