At nearly 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was no longer so blazing, the clouds were fluttering, and lumpy fish-scale clouds appeared in the sky.
Xu Qian, the black girl Wu Ke, the white girl Eva, Liu Jie and Lao Ma, and Xu’s mother came to Neverland as guests, and Li Shu welcomed them very much.
He took everyone snorkeling south of Neverland, and everyone was excited to see the gorgeous and colorful underwater scenery.
After snorkeling, everyone came up to the surface to take a breath. Their bodies were bobbing in the sea, and their hair was all wet.
Xu Qian wiped the seawater on her fair and pretty face and said: "Snorkeling is so fun. It turns out that I have snorkeled in other places, but the seabed there is far less beautiful than the seabed of Neverland. It was my first time snorkeling." The dive time is too short, and I have to come up for air in a few dozen seconds."
When snorkeling, you don’t need to carry an oxygen bottle. You just hold your breath and dive into the water. When you can’t hold your breath anymore, you surface. Then you can breathe well before diving back into the water.
Liu Jie smiled and said: "No way, snorkeling is just like that, but what was that big fish that was almost 2 meters long in the sea just now? It was ugly and fierce, and it felt like a small submarine swimming through the sea. , so scary.".
"That's the dragon fish." Li Shu said with a smile. He found that Liu Jie's skin was really white and looked really tender. There were water drops sliding down from the latter's cheeks, like a hibiscus coming out of the clear water, naturally removing the carvings. of beauty.
“There are a lot of dragonfish in the Dream Island fishery, and they are almost ready to be sold. Most of the bottom fish, shrimps, and crabs we just saw are food for the dragonfish.
Okay, let's go diving in the southwest, where there are more yellow-bearded shrimps. ".
"Okay!" Everyone agreed unanimously.
The setting sun reflected the sparkling waves on the sea, and flocks of seagulls flew back from the south to the woods in the northwest of Neverland. Their chirps were mixed with the chirps of young birds, making it as noisy as a concert.
After everyone dived into the seabed to look at the yellow-whiskered shrimps, Li Shu asked Boss Jing to bring 7 short-handled dip nets and led Xu Qian and others to catch crabs in the shallow sea area a little more than 2 meters deep.
"The shallow sea area here is close to the southwest pier. The sea water can shine down to the bottom of the sea. There are actually some big crabs running around in the sea water." Before catching the crabs, Li Shu told everyone that he did not want anyone to be injured during entertainment activities. :
"These crabs run very fast and have sharp pliers. When you catch them later, you must be careful not to get pinched in your hands. Otherwise, your fingers will be pinched and bruised, and your fingers will be pinched and broken, which is very painful."
"Yeah." Xu Qian, Wu Ke, Eva, and Liu Jie looked at each other and could see the vigilance in each other's eyes.
Lao Ma also said to his wife softly: "Be careful later."
"Yeah." Mother Xu, who had a mature charm all over her body, nodded.
"Okay! Let's start catching crabs!!!" Li Shu held up the net with his right hand and cheered enthusiastically.
Influenced by Li Shu, Xu Qian and others also became excited.
Each of the seven people took a net and dived into the seabed to catch crabs. Li Shu was naturally a master, but he only drove away the crabs and let others catch them, so that everyone could have fun.
The people holding the nets were initially full of confidence, but they soon discovered that it was not easy to catch a large crab weighing only over half a kilogram. There were too many potholes on the seabed, and the crabs ran very fast. Almost caught.
… …
Li Shu and other seven people were catching crabs, while Uncle Hai, Li Sha, Yan Zhang and others were cleaning the stone road. A large number of fallen leaves were swept up and collected. Occasionally, a black-headed cricket jumped out of the pile of fallen leaves.
The little girl walked to a pile of fallen leaves with her short legs and squatted down. The big yellow dog followed and lay on her right side. He raised his paws and pounced on a cricket on the fallen leaves.

Unfortunately, the panicked cricket jumped too fast and the big yellow dog did not pounce. The latter retracted its paws and looked around as if nothing had happened, and saw a white squirrel jumping on an almond tree.
"Brother Li Sha, why are there so many fallen leaves in summer? Aren't there only fallen leaves in autumn?" The little girl squatted beside the pile of fallen leaves. She could clearly smell the fragrance of fallen leaves with her nose.
She picked up a dry fallen leaf with her white and tender hands, closed her left eye, and placed the fallen leaf between her right eye and the sun.
The fallen leaves block the sun, and their edges glow slightly.
Li Sha, wearing light gray coarse work clothes and sleeves, stood with a big broom, a hearty smile on his rough and dark face, and said with a smile while wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead:
"There is no autumn in Neverland. It is the same all year round. Some leaves on the trees will turn yellow, dry up and fall when eaten by insects. Some small branches will die and the leaves on them will also fall off."
After waving the broom for a long time, Li Sha's arms were slightly sore. He walked to the right side of the 1-meter-wide stone road, stretched out a dead branch of a peach tree and said:
"Look, this small peach branch that is thick as chopsticks and has many twigs is dead. You see, the leaves on it have fallen off." Li Sha simply broke off the dry branches.
Click~
He directly handed the branch to the little girl, who took the half-meter-long slender branch and looked at it, and then looked at the remaining branches on the peach tree that were growing well and had peaches several times bigger than her fist. She was confused. Said: "Why are other branches growing well, but this branch is dead?".
The energetic Uncle Hai came over with a big bamboo basket in his arms, his face wrinkled, and he said with a smile: "Maybe that branch was bitten by an insect."
Uncle Hai placed the bamboo basket next to the fallen leaves, bent down and picked up handfuls of fallen leaves and put them into the bamboo basket. The big yellow dog was so frightened that he got out of the way, tilted his head, and curiously looked at the gradually decreasing pile. fallen leaves.
"Where are the small trees?" Uncle Hai asked curiously while loading the fallen leaves. Just now, more than half of the box of weeds and fallen leaves had been filled in the bamboo basket, and now a large number of fallen leaves were placed directly on the surface.
"My brother went diving with those guests. I also wanted to go diving, but he thought I was too young." The little girl squatted back, rested her chin with her right hand and frowned, saying in an old-fashioned way: "Hey~ I When can I go diving?".
The little girl's appearance instantly made Uncle Hai laugh, and Li Sha said: "Hahaha~".
After a while, Li Shu and other seven people came back. Although everyone only caught 10 crabs, they were very excited, especially Xu Qian and Eva, who were chattering. Li Shu, who was walking behind, was surprised to find Xu Qian's English is much better.
Lao Ma and his wife lived in a guest room, Xu Qian and Eva lived in it, and Wu Ke and Liu Jie lived in it. The three guest rooms were all on the third floor. They went back to the room to take a shower, change clothes, touch up their makeup, and then went downstairs to find that they had already propped up their clothes. BBQ grill.
"Wow~".
Li Shu poured the red coals into the barbecue grill, and the air was slightly distorted by the burning. Boss Jing brought a large number of raw mutton skewers from the kitchen.
Li Shu put the mutton skewers on the barbecue grill and said with a smile: "The crabs we caught are not enough to eat. Let's mainly eat grilled mutton skewers at night."
