928. Walking in the snow
Qin Shiou could only explain that he had made a mistake, this sponge was not the glass sponge in Sanders' mouth.
However, there is one argument that cannot be ignored, that is, glass sponge is different from other sponge species, there is no sponge filament, and the whole body has a bone composed of siliceous bone needles, which is a rigid sponge.
This kind of fusiform white sponge, Qin Shiou looked at it, and it was indeed a siliceous bone.
Shaking his head, Qin Shiou put his doubts in his heart and continued to look at the species here.
There are also tubular worms growing at the bottom of the limestone reef, which are a bit disgusting, like small sea snakes, but they have no eyes and only hollow mouths, and their mouths are constantly open to feed on sulfide bacteria.
Tubular worms are surrounded by their excrement, a small, colorful fish that survive here, they are only finger length, and their sharp little mouths devour the excrement of the worms, and they look very energetic.
Sometimes tubular worms stretch out and show their bodies, and a few small fish will approach the worm and peck at them with their pointed beaks, like woodpeckers pecking at worms in wood.
The ecosystem is simple, sulphide-based, and a few simple lives are alive, but it's very vibrant because some fish and shrimp are being attracted to it.
As we all know, hot air is lighter than cold air, and in the same way, hot water is lighter than cold water.
In this way, as magma emerges, the warmer water rises, and the cooler water sinks, so that the sea surface meets the seabed, and the fish food such as plankton that sinks on the bottom of the sea is stimulated, which can attract fish to converge.
The sea water around the magma hill is also slightly warmer. Underground heat energy is constantly coming out, and then the heat is transferred between the seawater. The surrounding sea area forms a dynamic equilibrium of temperature changes.
The warm waters alone attract a lot of life. Organisms are not only phototropic, but also thermotropic. For example, the deep-sea coral groves in the distance tend to grow towards the waters of the magma hills.
Qin Shiou went to input some Seagod energy into the deep-sea coral bushes, and he decided when to move a batch of red corals, which were very beautiful.
Another Poseidon consciousness went to find the sea python, these hideous-looking big guys floated in the warm water, without the vigor of spring, summer and autumn, a picture of getting by.
Qin Shiou took the sea pythons to the magma sea area and let them hover on the hill. Sea pythons are shallow-water creatures, they have been to the bottom of the magma sea before, the water temperature is right, but the pressure is too great, a little unbearable.
Now the magma has emerged and turned into limestone, and layers of limestone have been piled up, and the height is a full five or six hundred meters - it is really a mountain of water drops and sand accumulation!
Originally, the water depth of this sea area was more than 1,000 meters, but with the limestone hill on top, the water depth was reduced by half, and the sea pythons could withstand such water pressure.
Anacondas, which are more than ten meters long, hovered around the limestone hills. It looks really scary, if someone dives down at this time and sees so many thick sea pythons, it is estimated that they will think that they have traveled to the prehistoric era.
Finally, the sea python was fed with Poseidon energy. Qin Shiou withdrew his Seagod consciousness.
At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, the weather was a little warmer, and Qin Shiou and his party took a sleigh to ski. They didn't prepare the sleds because there were a bunch of them in the Carson shop. When the time comes, just pick one for yourself.
The island is closed and there is little activity. So everyone participated very much, hundreds of people came densely at the foot of the mountain in Khambar, and almost all the children arrived, Qin Shiou looked like a family gathering.
He came by jet sled, and the snow on the road had not yet melted, because the weather was cold, the snow was thick, and there were no cars rolling and manual shoveling, so the snow could be kept for a long time.
Seeing Qin Shiou's jet sleigh, a group of people whistled at him and shouted: "Wow, Qin, it's handsome, you capitalists really know how to play." β
Qin Shiou gave a thumbs up with a smile and scolded: "It's true that I'm a capitalist, but God knows, have I exploited your hard-earned money?" β
Bird stopped the sled, he waved his fist and said, "Boss, who is insulting you?" Sue me, sue sΓΉ your first thug, I'll kill him! β
Carson came up and bumped his fist with Qin Shiou, and said, "You are not only a capitalist, but also a mafia, ordinary capitalists will not bring thugs when they come out." β
Everyone talked and laughed, Carson beckoned him to take someone over to choose skis, they were all ordinary goods, that is, they could be used, everyone had a good time, in fact, there was nothing to do in this kind of place.
The fishermen have more or less played skiing, Qin Shiou asked how the technique was, Shaq and the others smirked, the bull wanted to defend himself, Qin Shiou waved his hand and said, "It seems that I have to find someone to be a teacher again." β
Bird said, "How about I?" I was trained in skiing, which was my forte when I was training in Switzerland. β
Qin Shiou patted Bird's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Very good, soldier, I like an all-rounder like you." β
Sanders arrived with Tia behind, Qin Shiou helped the two choose skis, saw that they were wearing ordinary jackets, and asked, "Do you want to choose a set of ski clothes and snowshoes?" β
The most common thing in skiing is to fall, and if you don't have a special ski suit, the snow will get into your clothes from the neck, wrists, and collar after falling, which is very unpleasant, and it can also lead to frostbite and the like.
Tia smiled and shrugged, "Thank you, Qin, but we don't need to change clothes, I have prepared other items." β
As she spoke, she opened her backpack, which contained long knee pads, wide elastic bands, and scarves.
The long knee pads are woven from acrylic cotton, which is very elastic, about 40 centimeters long, and Tia tried the elasticity and put it on the slender calf to cover the waist of the snowshoe, so as to prevent the snow.
The elastic band was used to tie the cuffs of the clothes, and the scarf was tied and tucked into the collar, Tiya moved for a moment and felt that the elasticity was just right, and smiled and signaled to Qin Shiou: "Look, isn't this okay?" β
Seeing this, Qin Shiou touched his nose and didn't say more, it seems that people are much more knowledgeable than him, he still cares about himself.
Bird helped him choose goggles and handed him a box of skin cream to apply to his face and neck: "Prevent frostbite from unknowingly, when you glide too fast and your skin will lose moisture, this will act as a protection." β
Qin Shiou was prepared, and Bird taught him how to get on the skis, and there were buckles on the board, as long as they were tight with the card of the shoes.
As soon as he was ready, Bird asked, "How's it going?" β
Qin Shiou felt a little and said confidently: "Very good, no problem." β
Bird nodded and smiled, "Okay, it's okay to take two steps, take two steps and try." β
Qin Shiou looked at this guy and felt that this line was a little familiar, when Zhao Benshan fooled Fan Wei, didn't he just talk like that? (To be continued......)
