Chapter 75 (Submarine Blue)
"It's a kind of mussel that lives in the deep sea, and normally they don't leave the bottom of the sea, so it's very difficult for fishermen to catch them. It's very aggressive, otherwise it wouldn't have survived. Feng Xueqin changed his clothes and hung his wet clothes on a pole to explain.
"Then you don't remind me?" Bei Yan'er raised her wrist and complained dissatisfiedly.
"How do I know you're so careless, I'll remind you next time, okay?" Feng Xueqin really felt sorry, although the other party was to blame.
"Fourth sister, I didn't expect you to speak so viciously, do you think there will be a next time if I am bitten once?"
"Hehe....... ”
Wu Qixuan and Qiao Ran also smiled: "This incident is to remind you to be vigilant against any unknowns. ”
Bei Yan'er was very discouraged, too, no one reached out to take it, but she was so reckless!
"This sea mussel lives on the bottom of the sea, where the water pressure is high. Therefore, their strength is also very great, otherwise they will not be able to open their shells. At the same time, their meat is also delicious. Feng Xueqin explained.
"Didn't you say that unfamiliar things could be poisonous?" Bei Yan'er took revenge and pried open the sea mussel that was broken by herself, and pulled out a large piece of white and tender flesh and looked at it.
"The third sister is most proficient in medicine, and she is a little sloppy in martial arts, so she will be bitten. Qiao Ran explained.
"Yes, I also know a little bit about medicine, so we can learn from each other in the future. This one is reassuring and will not be toxic. "Feng Xueqin apologized for explaining.
"Are you sure?" said Bei Yan'er.
"I'm sure you might find a rare blue pearl, but it's a matter of luck. Feng Xueqin looked at a blue bead in the flesh of the sea mussel and reminded.
"Really? I thought it was a poison sac?" Bei Yan'er suddenly felt better, and quickly took out the bead.
The blue is indeed beautiful in the sunset.
"This is indeed a poison sac. Feng Xueqin wanted to explain further, but she didn't expect that as soon as she started, Bei Yan'er threw out the blue pearl like a mental reflex.
If it weren't for Feng Xueqin's quick catch, he fell into the sea, and glanced at the three people helplessly.
Seeing Bei Yan'er's nervous expression, she took a breath and continued to explain.
"The so-called poison is just a name, just like medicine. The medicine we take when we are sick and the medicine we use to heal our wounds is actually a toxin. If you use it well, it is medicine, and if you use it badly, it is poison. Aren't many poisons on the rivers and lakes also blended with medicinal herbs or something?"
"The medicine we use or poison, under normal circumstances, a single state will not play a role, and it will only be effective if several are combined, and this is the same. ”
"If it's just a single sea blue, it's not toxic unless swallowed and reacts with other substances in the body. This principle is the same as water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, and maybe it can save lives in the future. ”
"It's rare! Are you sure you don't want to?"
"Then how do I know what it mixes with is poisonous, and what it mixes with to detoxify? Why don't I know?"
"Submarine blue is very rare, and it doesn't have to be mixed with anything. For example, if a person is poisoned and swallows it, it can suck the poison into its body. ”
"When it is excreted and crushed into powder, it is highly poisonous, and if you want to detoxify, you can only find the second submarine blue, otherwise it will not be saved. If you swallow a whole poisonous sea blue at once, you can only wait for death. "Feng Xueqin explained patiently.
"So this is still a jewel?" Bei Yan'er picked up the submarine blue and put it in front of her in a new way.
"But this thing is very targeted, if it conflicts with the physique of the user, then it is not detoxification but poisoning. In other words, using undersea blue to detoxify is actually gambling on life. After all, there is no way to do experiments to determine if this thing is suitable. ”
"Despite this, there are still many people in the Martial Saint Martial Sect level who will prepare one, because there is still a chance at that time, isn't it?"
"You know so much, it's true! I'm going to die, and I still have a chance to live, and it's a treasure. Wu Qixuan responded.
"This should be worth a lot of money when you sell it, right?" Qiao Ran asked.
"Then we'll sell it when we get to Qinghe City, and we'll see if there's anything else in it. Bei Yan'er said and went to catch sea mussels again.
"Are you short of money?" Feng Xueqin was puzzled. Since you are a bounty hunter, how can you have no money?
"Fourth sister, you haven't been to a prosperous area, so you naturally don't know how fast you spend money. ”
"Bounty hunters are very profitable, but there are only a few things we can do, and we are often preempted. We're just barely trying to get enough to eat. Bei Yan'er was busy explaining.
"Third sister, my father's letter said that the fourth sister used to be the princess of Hongxingguo!" Wu Qixuan reminded.
"What's wrong with the princess?
Feng Xueqin immediately became embarrassed, she really didn't make any money by herself, and she had always been eating white rice.
"Uh! that ...... Aren't you going to eat seafood?"
“......。 ”
A young man in his twenties was trying to control the direction and balance of the boat with his oars.
At the bow of the boat a woman in a yellow dress lay reclining there, strands of her hair fluttering in the sea breeze, her face pale and her lips chapped, and she held a harp tightly in her arms, as if it were important to her.
"Yan'er, you hold on, we are going to land, and when we get to the shore, we will have food and water. The paddling man called weakly, his lips chapped and his voice hoarse.
He knew that Tengyan couldn't hear, and if he couldn't get to the shore, he wouldn't be able to wake up again. But he really didn't have the strength to do it. ”
After briefly maintaining the balance and scope of the boat, the man reached out and scooped up a little water from the surface of the sea, gently applied it to the woman's lips, and then wiped it on her forehead.
"I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, maybe we will never be able to get out of this sea again? ”
"God, if you let me escape from life, why don't you give me a way out, if our life should be like this, why give me hope?" the man complained loudly to the scorching sun. Although his voice was hoarse, he still tried his best to question the sky.
Beneath the deep blue waters, a red shadow is chasing a black-shelled turtle. Suddenly, a sense of desolation spread from the surface of the sea.
Feng Xueqin stopped and looked up. There's a boat up there, and that's where this desolation seems to come from.
"Has anyone been killed? Feng Xueqin looked at the black-shelled turtle that had escaped, and turned around and swam towards the sea.
