The sun was not so bright in the morning, and the sea breeze was blowing. Hundreds of people from the city were catching up on the beach. The air was filled with laughter, and the joy was rippling along the thousand-meter-long seaside.
The little girl looked up at the large conch in Li Shu's hand and asked curiously: "What is a short conch?".
Li Shu smiled and said: "What I have in my hand is the short snail."
Little girl: "... ".
Looking at the slightly depressed little girl, Li Shu laughed directly: "There are several thick thorns on the shoulder of the snail. The thorns are just these thorns, and they are a little prickly to the touch."
Pa da~
Li Shu threw the conch into the red bucket, rubbed the wet sand on his palms, and said with a smile: "Let's go dig other conchs and see how many we can dig today!"
"Okay!" The little girl was very excited.
The two continued to search on the beach. When they saw a slight depression in the beach, Li Shu would stop. He first pounded it with a small iron rake and could feel the hard conch shell being pounded, and then used his fingers to remove it. buckle.
Swish, brush, brush~
Big conchs were found one by one, and soon there were more than thirty conchs in the red bucket. The little girl was like the second eye of the plum tree. From time to time she said in a sweet voice, "There, there, the sand there is falling." Went down".
After digging up another conch, Li Shu found a pair of feet standing in front of him. He looked up and found that it was Vecna.
Vecna wore a light blue sun protection garment on her upper body and a light gray striped hip skirt on her lower body. Her legs were long and straight. The long rubber shoes of Li Shu and others were all black, while hers were pink.
"Vecna, how was the harvest?" Li Shu said with a smile.
"I dug up a big one!" Vecna took out the conch she found as if it were a treasure. The conch was 20 centimeters long, which was really astonishingly big.
"I just met Cao Cao, and he was also shocked by this big conch." Vecna smiled, her eyes moved to the red bucket Li Shu was carrying, and she was instantly shocked and said: "Wow! You have found so many big snails." Conch!? I just found one. I only found 3 in Cao Cao just now."
Vecna was very curious about how Li Shu found so many conchs. Li Shu smiled and said: "After the tide receded, you all ran towards the sea chasing the tide. In fact, there were conchs starting to appear at the waterline."
"Um, aren't there more conchs the closer you get to the sea?" Vecna asked curiously, "I just saw a lot of people running forward, so I ran forward too. I was almost thrown off my shoes when I ran so fast. fly.".
"Haha." Li Shu and the little girl both smiled.
The weather is really good today. White clouds like cotton candy cover the entire sky. The sunlight shining through the clouds is shining on the sea not far away. There are seagulls flying in the distance, weak. The cry came with the sound of the wind.
A ray of sunlight shines on Vecna's sapphire earrings, and the reflected sunlight is beautiful.
Li Shu said slowly: "Conchs are different from crabs. When the tide recedes, crabs will run away frantically towards the sea, while many conchs will hide on the spot, and those that cannot be hidden will lie directly on the sand."
"So that's it." Vecna patted her head slightly: "I was really dizzy at the time, and I actually ran with the others!"
"Let's go, let's go find other conchs." Li Shu said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, find the conch later and let me dig it up." Vecna said.
"Okay." Li Shu nodded in agreement.
The three of them walked forward. The beach in front of them was already covered with scattered footprints and some scattered silt that had been dug out. It was obvious that someone had searched for this place.
Vecna blocked the sun with her palms and looked around, saying helplessly: "It seems that everything has been dug out, and piles of sand have been piled up."
"It's okay, let's go over there." Li Shu pointed to the road ahead on the right.
After taking just two steps, the little girl saw a huge shell and said in surprise: "There is a shell there!"
Li Shu walked over to pick up the shell and wiped off the wet sand. He found that it was half a sea clam shell, more than 20 centimeters long and larger than the palm of his hand.
He turned it over and looked at it: "The inside is pearl-like white, and there are very light striped textures on the outside. They are all pure white. They don't look good at all. Throw them away?"
Li Shu was seeking the little girl's opinion.
Vecna smiled and said: "This shell is quite big."
The little girl looked at the simple shell, thought for a while and said: "It's really too simple, just throw it away."
"That's good." Li Shu said: "You can use it to float water, keep an eye on it."
Li Shu held the piece of shell in his right hand and swung his arm back as hard as he could. Then, after pouring his strength into the shell, he threw the shell away with a swipe.
Whoosh~
The shells ripped through the air and flew to the distant sea at high speed. Su Zhizhe and Yao Li were digging for conches. When they heard the sound, they raised their heads and asked, "What the hell did it fly past?"
Yao Li was unsure: "It seems to be a shell."
The shell flew to the sea, picked up a handful of water splashes and then bounced up. After landing, it picked up a handful of water splashes and bounced up again. It flew quickly to the distant sea.
"Wow!" Yao Li looked into the distance and said with a smile: "Awesome! It hit more than a dozen splashes in a row."
"Haha, it's just a small trick. Let's go and look for other conches over there." Li Shu said with a smile.
The few people walked forward and soon found a slightly sunken shallow pit.
"This must have been missed by other seafarers. Dig here. There should be a conch here." Li Shu said with a smile.
"Okay!" Vecna immediately squatted down and dug the sand with a rake handle. The little girl squatted opposite Vecna and dug the other side with another rake handle.
As the sediment decreased a little, the conch shell was soon exposed.
"There really is a conch!!" The little girl immediately shouted in surprise.
The surrounding people who drove the sea looked over one after another, showing kind smiles, and some even showed envious eyes.
Vecna took out her phone and clicked photos of the conch that had just exposed a little bit of its shell, then dug a little bit more and took another photo, until the entire conch was dug out.
"Perfect! If you go fishing but don't take any photos, what's the difference between not going to sea at all?" Vecna smiled and happily posted the photo on social media: "This conch is bigger, about 25 centimeters long, right?" , it’s really too rare.”.
Li Shu looked slightly embarrassed. He couldn't understand Vecna's thoughts.
Woof woof ~
A big yellow dog running and playing on the beach came over. He was breathing hot air with his big mouth open because of the strenuous exercise.
"Pap~".
Putting the conch into the red bucket, Li Shu smiled and said: "Go back and have a rest, the weather is getting hot."
"Okay." Vecna and the little girl nodded in agreement.
The three people and the dog walked back to the dry beach and back to the place where they put their things before. The big orange cat, white squirrel, and blackbird were waiting here.
"Meow~" the big orange cat immediately came up to him, picking at the edge of the red bucket to look at the conch inside.
