Cangwu didn't know what Ye Xi had drawn in her palm for any use, but she still indulged in letting Ye Xi pull her into the dead water and grass. However, her free right hand already had sharp nails, ready to tear the surrounding aquatic plants to shreds.

Who knew that this difficult water and grass would treat them like stones, and after going in for a while, there was still no movement at all, allowing the two of them to move freely in it.

- The land of the dead is completely open to them.

After a few casual turns, they came to a place where large fish bones were lying.

Ye Xi pulled the mist to a halt and began to quietly enjoy the wonders around him.

The surrounding aquatic plants swayed slightly, like a magnified version of fluorescent kelp, and like swaying rags, the height was about the same as a big tree, they were like a fluorescent underwater forest in the depths, but the sky was thick black.

Cang Wu looked at the large fish bone lying nearby, and said quietly, "I was also caught when I came here when I was a child. ”

Ye Xi looked at her.

Was he attacked when he was a child? Didn't you say that this dead water and grass only attacked large creatures? Was it dangerous at that time? Were you injured?

Cangwu seemed to understand what Ye Xi was thinking, and explained: "My tail is very long, and it was not short when I was a child, so I was attacked. ”

She said with a smile, "I was so angry that I almost tore up half of the aquatic plants in the trench, but now it looks like they've all grown back and are taller than before." ”

Ye Xi also smiled.

He could imagine how the young version of Xiao Cangwu was angry and competed with these aquatic plants, and how the green-tailed little sharks living in the aquatic grass looked at her in horror.

Wait a minute......

The green-tailed sharks have seen fog in the past.

Cangwu's silver tail is so conspicuous and unique, even if Cangwu was a child and there is a lot of difference between it and now, these green-tailed little sharks should also have an impression.

But why didn't they know Cangwu at all when they saw Cangwu just now, and they could only sense Cangwu's identity from their bloodline?

...... Could it be that the years that have passed in the middle have lived longer than all the green-tailed sharks outside?

So how old is Cangwu, it won't be hundreds of years old, right?

Ye Xi's heart jumped, and he looked at the beautiful and flawless side face of Cangwu in a daze, and after a while, he silently turned his head again.

Never mind.

His instincts told him it was better not to ask.

Ye Xi shook his head, in order to forget the question just now as soon as possible, and turned to look at the underwater creatures around him seriously.

This is more than 5,000 meters deep, and because of the high water pressure, some fish do not look like fish in the shallow water.

Some fish have their mouths bulging high as if they have tumors, and some fish carry a small flashing light on their foreheads, which has a neon lantern effect. Some fish have more dense and jagged teeth than piranhas, and their skin is mottled and uneven, and they are ugly and unbearable to look at.

A flock of goose-yellow tadpole-like things swam up and pecked at his skin.

Ye Xi felt itchy, but didn't catch them.

But they pecked for a while, but they didn't find anything to eat like dead skin moss, and swam to his feet in disgust. At the bottom of the trench are cobblestones, pecking at the moss on them.

Ye Xi's gaze followed them, and then he was pleasantly surprised to see a small and delicate seahorse swimming hard around his thigh.

Ye Xi stretched out his hand and grabbed the little seahorse.

He spread his palms and stared magically at the terrified little seahorse.

When it escapes, it will be fished back, and if it escapes, it will be fished back, and it will be fun.

A smile flashed in Cangmist's eyes: "You like seahorses?"

Ye Xi nodded.

The seahorse is so delicate and amazing, it's hard for anyone not to like it, not to mention that this is the first time he has seen a seahorse up close and touched it.

Cang Wu remembered the little golden seahorse she had stored in the stone box, and said, "There are more beautiful seahorses in my blue-gold coral bush, which will shine the same color as the sun. ”

When Ye Xi heard that there were seahorses that could shine, there was a longing light in his eyes, and he immediately let go of the little seahorse in his hand.

Cangwu regretted it when he said it.

She had actually forgotten the little golden glowing seahorse for a long time, and after all this time, the little seahorse didn't know if it was alive or not.

Seeing Ye Xi's sparkling expectant gaze, Cangwu regretted for the first time that he didn't take good care of the little seahorse. Now I can only hope that it is stronger and not starved to death.

Cangwu changed the subject: "These aquatic plants taste good, you can taste them." ”

As she spoke, she swiped her fingers and cut off a patch of aquatic weeds.

The aquatic weed was shaped like kelp, and it was as thick as a finger, and after being cut, the dark green juice instantly gushed out like blood, blurring the surrounding seawater.

The fog pulled Ye Xi upstream, out of this dead water and grass.

The green-tailed little sharks, who were worried about their safety, were originally gnawing their fingers and looking for them everywhere in the water and grass in a panic, but when they looked up and saw that they were safe, they all let out a cooing of surprise in their throats, and the two sharks who heard that they wanted to teach the language were full of black lines, and began to worry about where to teach.

......

On the sea.

Ye Xi condensed a piece of ice floe with a cold witch pattern, and the two of them sat on the ice floe and began to cut this huge seaweed.

Cangwu first cut a piece to Ye Xi.

Ye Xi's eyes lit up after taking a bite: "It tastes very good!

Maybe these aquatic plants grew up eating meat, the taste is very delicious, and juicy, and he hasn't eaten anything like kelp seaweed for a long, long time, and he misses it very much.

Nibbling and nibbling, he remembered stewed pork ribs with kelp, spicy shredded kelp, seaweed egg drop soup, seaweed tofu seafood soup, and crunchy dry seaweed...... I thought about it for a while, and my stomach was about to growl.

Cangwu saw that Ye Xi liked it so much, and didn't want him to be unable to eat it after returning to Xicheng, so he said: "After I go back, I will ask people to send more to Xicheng." ”

After thinking about it, he said, "I'm afraid this grass won't be delicious when it leaves the sea, so let's send it regularly." ”

Ye Xi was moved by Cangwu to think so carefully for him, and his heart was hot as if there was a warm flow, but he didn't want to work so other mermen.

This is the hinterland of the ocean, I don't know how many miles away from Xicheng, and I don't know how much time it takes to send seagrass to Xicheng. In addition, the sea is not absolutely safe, and across such a distant sea area, the merman who sends him something may encounter danger.

"No need, thank you, Wu. ”

Ye Xi kissed Cangwu on the forehead and declined.

In fact, kelp seaweed is not impossible to grow on a large scale. Xicheng is not too far from the coast, and it is within the radiation range of Xicheng's influence, so it is not difficult to raise kelp seaweed in the shallow sea.

The closest mermaid to the land is also far from the coast, so there is no need to worry about encroaching on the territory of a merman.

Thinking of this, Ye Xi thought about it seriously.

If you really want to raise it, you can send people to build a few stone houses on the shore at that time, and build some kelp seaweed breeding bases in the shallow sea.

You can also build a sea salt drying field by the way, no matter how much rock salt is in the rock salt mine, it will eventually run out, and sea salt is bound to be developed.

Thinking about it this way, it is really beneficial to establish a garrison there, and it is more convenient for the tribesmen to go to the sea to catch seafood in the future, and they can further expand their safe territory.

In the future, when the time is ripe, the main city of Xicheng, the coastal station, and the former territory of the Xia tribe can be included in the residential area of Xicheng, and several wide main roads can be built in the jungle to connect these three points and form a triangular residential territory of 10,000 square kilometers...... Become a city in the true sense of the word.

However, although the idea is good, it is not yet possible.

The population of Xicheng is too small.

A residential city of tens of thousands of square kilometers is comparable to a large city in the previous life, and the kind with a population of tens of millions, if it is built now, it will make the land sparsely populated, and it can only be scattered and inhabited.

Therefore, if you want to build such a big city that is countless times more prosperous than the super tribe, you have to wait for the population of Xicheng to increase, at least more than two million.

It's going to be a 100-year plan.

However, the population of Xicheng is growing rapidly, and in addition to female soldiers and the elderly, almost all women of school age are increasing the population of Xicheng at the rate of one child a year.

In this wild world, there is no idea of having fewer children and better children, and there is no contraceptive measures, they are all born when they can be born, and the more children they have, the happier they are.

Regardless of the tribe, almost all people think this way.

There are many reasons why the population of small and medium-sized tribes in the past was so sparse in the past, and some only had a miserable few hundred.

One of the most important reasons is the lack of strength and difficulty in obtaining food. The second is the harsh environment, every year of the scorching heat and cold winter is a hurdle, the old and weak women and children can hardly get through. In the end, childbirth is also a big difficulty, the conditions here are too backward, the mortality rate of pregnant women is very high, children under the age of three are prone to death, and only the tribes with doctors and witches are in a better situation.

But now Xicheng has eliminated these factors, there is no shortage of food and water in the city, the original terrible heat and cold winter has become an ordinary alternation of seasons, there are still so many doctors and witches in the city, pregnant women can't die of dystocia, and the child's body is great.

Perhaps it will not take long to build such a truly prosperous city.

"What are you thinking?"

The pleasant sound of the mist sounded in my ears.

Ye Xi blinked and came back to his senses, only to find that he had eaten seaweed, and actually thought of the population and the centennial plan of Xicheng?!

Well???
