The drunk looked around dimly, but couldn't remember where this place was.

He looked around blankly and asked, "Where are we from?"

Lu Ao couldn't stand it anymore, and just wanted to speak.

Next to him, Xiang Xingchang grabbed his mobile phone, "Professor Huang, let him wake up tomorrow and talk to you in detail, we are eating supper outside now."

Huang Ningna on the other end of the phone hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, where do you eat supper, I can come over to talk now."

It's hard for Xiang Xingchang to refuse after hearing this.

The professors are also passionate about doing charity, and their volunteers are also doing it for the charity. We all come to the same goal by different routes, so it's not good to reject them too much.

Xiang Xingchang gave an address.

Huang Ningna immediately said: "Wait a while, I'll take a taxi and come over right away, it shouldn't take too long."

"We won't be back for a while, so you don't have to worry if you take your time."

Huang Ningna said over there: "No, I'm out of the hotel now, and I'll be here right away."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the WeChat phone.

Xiang Xingchang looked helplessly at his mobile phone, turned his head and said to Lu Ao: "The man will come soon, you can see for yourself, if you can answer, don't force it, just leave it to us."

Lu Ao nodded.

After Xiang Xingchang finished speaking, he put the mobile phone back to the drunk man. The drunk man held the mobile phone with a dazed expression on his face, not quite understanding what happened.

Xiang Xingchang patted him on the shoulder, "Come on, get down and rest for a while, be careful that your girlfriend comes to make trouble with you again."

Huang Ningna lives not far from their supper stall, and it takes 7 minutes by taxi.

He came alone tonight, without bringing his two students, but brought his laptop.

Seeing Lu Ao and the others, he raised his hand and greeted them from afar.

He stretched out his hand without smiling, especially since the other party was a university professor, Xiang Xingchang and his group respected him in their hearts.

When he saw someone, whether he was drunk or not, they all stood up and motioned to him.

Huang Ningna was very polite and bowed slightly to them.

Lu Ao moved a seat on his left, "Professor Huang, sit down."

"Thank you."

After all, most of you here are not drunk, so after a few pleasantries, Lao Wen cut to the chase, "Professor Huang, I don't know what project you brought today, can you tell us about it?"

"Of course." Huang Ningna was still panting, "I came here this year mainly to do asexual reproduction of reef-building corals. In layman's terms, it's coral cuttings."

"Hey, this job is not easy."

"It's not easy, it's quite difficult, and the survival rate is not very high, but I still want to try again." Huang Ningna said, "This year's coral is a new species, and it may improve in terms of environmental adaptation. "

"There are also new species of coral?"

"Yes. We all know that coral is actually a kind of animal, like reef-building coral, which is actually a combination of coral polyps and zooxanthellae. The current problem is mainly due to the increase in sea water temperature, which weakens the activity of zooxanthellae. After producing energy, coral polyps will mistakenly think that such zooxanthellae are sick and lose their effectiveness, so they excrete them, which is the popular explanation for the cause of coral bleaching."

"When most of the zooxanthellae are discharged, the coral polyps will gradually starve to death without energy sources, so the bleached corals will die completely." Huang Ningna said, "We mainly did research on the zooxanthellae part this year. A breeding effort, this new zooxanthellae is less sensitive to temperature and may be able to withstand ocean warming."

Lu Ao asked: "Is this project a success?"

Huang Ningna waved his hand, "No, it's still in the experiment. The Qianming sea area is one of our pilot sites. Reef-building corals mainly grow in tropical waters. Our side is actually not a tropical sea area. The temperature and water temperature are also relative. It’s relatively low, but some sea areas are a little warmer than tropical waters, so we have a great advantage here, so I wanted to come and have a look.”

"Listen to you, your team has coral planting plans in other sea areas?"

"There are large forces in the South China Sea." Huang Ningna said, "Global warming is a major trend. We also want to try to see if we can plant corals in seas with higher latitudes. If the transformation of zooxanthellae is not successful , new corals can grow in these relatively cold waters."

Everyone listened carefully to what he said.

Huang Ningna introduced the whole project. There is nothing wrong with his project in terms of content, purpose or qualifications, and the work for the volunteers is not too difficult.

After Xiang Xingchang consulted the opinions of those present who were still sober, he made a decision on the spot to help him grow corals.

Huang Ningna was very excited and kept saying thank you.

While chatting, a drunk man here asked: "Professor Huang, how did I hear that there are other teams in the country that are also working on coral protection?"

"Yes." Huang Ningna was drunk with two glasses of wine, her entire face turned red, and her words became more and more gentle, "Our coral planting team in the South China Sea is a project supported by state funding."

"The funding for their project must be very high?"

Which pot should not be opened and which pot should be lifted? Xiang Xingchang was so frightened that he kept winking at the team member who said something wrong.

Huang Ning admitted, "Gao, it is said that there are [-] million funds to unite [-] colleges and universities."

A drunk here blurted out, "Why aren't you in there?"

Huang Ningna waved his hand and sighed, "The skills are inferior to others. I have been studying this coral for almost 20 years, and I have not achieved any results, and I can't apply for funding."

Xiang Xingchang didn't expect to hear him say that, and immediately sympathized: "Then it's really not easy for you."

Huang Ningna wiped his glasses, "There is nothing difficult or difficult, but there is still a glimmer of hope for my project. As a scientific researcher, I can't give up on this."

Everyone drank a lot tonight.

Xiang Xingchang has rich experience in dealing with drunks. After drinking, he directly called a car, four drunks packed into one car, and a sober person was assigned to take them home.

Huang Ningna was sent by him personally.

Lu Ao drank a little too much, but he was not drunk, and Song Zhou was next to him.

Xiang Xingchang felt relieved, "Then go back and rest first, and we will talk tomorrow after we sober up."

Lu Ao nodded, "No problem, let's have a meal at noon tomorrow and talk about specific matters."

"Okay, see you at noon tomorrow."

Song Zhou and Lu Ao found a secluded place and teleported home.

Even if Lu Ao wasn't drunk, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

After returning home, Song Zhou went to the kitchen to make him hangover soup, and he came out with a bowl of sour soup after a while.

After Lu Ao came out of the shower, he obediently held a large bowl of hangover soup, and sat on the recliner in the yard to drink it.

Song Zhou looked at him from the side, "You look thoughtful all night today, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about the current situation of corals in our country." Lu Ao stretched out his left hand and touched his heart, "I don't know why, but I always feel that I have the responsibility to protect the ocean."

"Of course." Song Zhou gently pinched his earlobe, "As the last dragon in this plane, the ocean is your territory."

Lu Ao was taken aback.

Song Zhou added: "It's not so much a territory, it's better to say that you are in a symbiotic relationship to some extent. When you are well, the ocean will be relatively well. Similarly, when the ocean is well, you will be well."

Lu Ao muttered, "No wonder I always feel heavy in my heart tonight."

He sighed as he spoke, the current state of the ocean is really not optimistic.

Whether it is the ecological diversity or environmental conditions of the ocean, it is not as good as before. It is actually very difficult to protect the ocean.

The ocean is so big, twice as big as the land, and it is really too difficult to protect it by one's own strength.

Lu Ao looked at the big bowl in front of him, thoughtful.

Song Zhou sat next to him, "I didn't ask you to protect it to a certain extent, just try your best. Besides, there are so many people protecting it with you?"

"I suddenly remembered," Lu Ao looked up at him, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you also protecting the land when you set up an abnormal personnel supervision agency?"

"Not only the land, but the whole plane is my responsibility." Song Zhou pinched his earlobe, "Do you feel a little relieved when you hear this?"

"It's okay." Lu Ao said, "Forget it, I don't care too much about how much I can protect."

"Ah."

Lu Ao drank the hangover soup in the bowl in one gulp, and ran to the bathroom to wash up.

After Song Zhou took a bath, the two went back to their room to rest.

After lying on the bed, Song Zhou turned Lu Ao over and said in a low voice, "Let me see how the wound is doing today?"

If he didn't mention it, Lu Ao would have forgotten about it.Now when he suddenly heard him mention it, Lu Ao's whole hair was going to explode, he pushed him with hands and feet, and the wolf rolled out from under him, wrapped himself tightly in a small quilt, and said vigilantly: "It's almost healed. "

"Let me see."

"No need to look." Lu Ao resolutely refused, "If I show you, maybe we won't have to sleep tonight."

Song Zhou pressed him, his eyes flickered, "Am I so anxious in your heart?"

Lu Ao resolutely wrapped up the small quilt without wavering, "Whoever refused to stop this morning, I said I was going to be late!"

"Who wrapped my legs around me and wouldn't let me go?"

Lu Ao blushed, kicked him immediately, and became angry from embarrassment, "I still have work tomorrow, sleep!"

"Sleep, sleep, are you really not hurt?"

Lu Ao wrapped the quilt tightly and ignored him. After a long while, Lu Ao whispered, "No."

A smile flashed across Song Zhou's eyes, he patted Lu Ao's back lightly through the quilt, hugged him and said, "Go to sleep."

Lu Ao had a very fulfilling day today, and he was already exhausted.

As soon as Song Zhou finished speaking, he fell asleep almost immediately.

Nothing happened the next day, and it was past nine in the morning when he woke up.

The sun was rising so high, he looked at the time, was startled, and hurriedly jumped down barefoot to put on his slippers.

The courtyard was quiet, no human voices or other sounds could be heard.

Lu Ao looked out of the window, but did not see Song Zhou.

He raised his voice and called tentatively, "Song Zhou?"

No one answered him, Song Zhou might have gone to work.

After Lu Ao washed up, he went to the kitchen and saw omelets and porridge in the cupboard. He looked again and saw a note pressed next to it.

Songzhou's elegant handwriting was on it: eat some breakfast when you wake up, and I will come back at 11:30 to pick you up and have dinner with Xiang Xingchang.

They made an appointment with Xiang Xingchang yesterday to have lunch together today, but Lu Ao almost forgot about it.

He took out the porridge and flatbread, and processed the information on his mobile phone while eating breakfast.

In the fishing group on WeChat, Lin Guixiao hit him once and asked him if he would go fishing in the morning.

Looking at the time, it was already four hours ago.

Lu Ao replied: I have something to do in the past few days, fishing is suspended, I will go with you when I am free

Lin Guixiao asked: What's the matter, are you still in Qianyong?Shouldn't you come back after receiving the prize yesterday?

Lu Ao: I met a professor here who was talking about planting corals. We may have to stay for a few more days. I will make an appointment with you when I am free. You don’t have to wait for me these few days

When Lin Qiyan saw the words planting coral, he immediately popped up: How to plant coral?

Lu Ao: It is the breeding of corals, which can be regarded as a public welfare project

Lin Qiyan: Hey, that's not right, don't we have corals here?Where is the coral?

Lu Ao: In certain sea areas there are

Lin Guixiao: @林琴岩, you forgot about the warm current, there are quite a lot of warm currents here, and it’s not surprising that there are corals

Lin Qiyan: I really forgot

Lin Qiyan: @露岙How do you grow coral? Can anyone participate in this kind of volunteer activity?

Seeing his question, Lu Ao simply called, "Are you interested in growing coral?"

"It's okay. I've been exposed to this kind of knowledge before, but I didn't understand it too deeply. I heard that corals are facing a crisis now." Lin Qiyan said, "The main thing is to listen to what you said. Planting corals is also a good topic. I want to know if there is any possibility of cooperation, can I go over and make a video?"

Lu Ao admired his dedication.

After thinking about it, Lu Ao said, "Let me ask first. With your current diving skills, it should not be possible to grow corals, but if you are willing to participate in underwater shooting, it should be no problem."

Lin Qiyan didn't hesitate, "That's no problem, I'm already very proficient in diving, even if I can't compare to you, I will never hold you back."

"Then I'll ask first, and I'll get back to you in the afternoon."

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

Lu Ao finished his breakfast and checked the relevant information.

Song Zhou came back on time at 11:30 noon and took Lu Ao to the banquet.

In fact, their teleportation is a bit frequent, and those who are interested can find it out.

However, the abnormal personnel supervision agency is actually an official agency, and no one will really come to investigate them after Song Zhou greets them.

In case someone really checks, it is not difficult for Song Zhou to make people lose their memory.

Xiang Xingchang's lunch appointment today is a relatively large hotel.

Not many people came, apart from Lu Ao and Song Zhou, there were only a few key members of the volunteer team and people from Huang Ningna's side.

We had a round of chats last night, and reached a consensus on many issues. Today we are just talking about more details.

Huang Ningna was also very sincere. He brought all the certificates and project materials, and explained the work he wanted to do one by one from the beginning.

After careful discussion, everyone felt that this project was no problem.

Xiang Xingchang asked: "Professor Huang, I don't know when your project will start. Please tell me a time so that I can arrange and coordinate."

Huang Ningna did not hesitate, "Our nursery is ready and can be planted at any time. If it is convenient, of course the sooner the better, even tomorrow."

Xiang Xingchang pondered, "I'm afraid it won't work tomorrow, I have to coordinate again, how about three days later?"

"I'm fine after three days."

"Then three days later, we will see how many people and equipment we can deliver. Let me communicate with you again. The coral planting site you mentioned is in the open sea. I want to ask, have you rented a boat yet? Or do we need to go out here?"

"I'm still in touch here. It would be even better if you have a boat on your side. If not, there should be no problem on my side."

Lu Ao said next to him, "You don't need to look for a boat. I have a boat and I can go to sea."

Only then did Xiang Xingchang remember that he had bought a big boat.

Xiang Xingchang slapped his head, "Okay, your boat is definitely qualified. Then I will see if I can organize a team of about 20 people. If there are too many people, it will be difficult to coordinate. About [-] people are enough."

Huang Ningna said, "That's no problem."

Lu Ao nodded, "It's okay on my side. By the way, there is also a photographer on my side who wants to participate. He is the master of UP and may make related videos."

This is the pillow that Sleep sent. Huang Ningna was about to recruit volunteers to take pictures, but he didn't expect him to say this.

Huang Ningna nodded immediately, "No problem, just let him come. I can authorize him to make a video, and we have nothing to keep secret here."

"Then let me tell him, he should be able to come after we officially start work."

Huang Ningna nodded, "It doesn't matter whether it's early or late. The photographer's work is heavy. He may need to help take pictures of the coral growth process. If he is willing, I can pay for board and lodging."

"Okay, I'll tell him."

A group of people ate and ate until after two o'clock in the afternoon before finalizing all the work.

Everyone created a WeChat work group in person, and made an appointment to chat on WeChat.

Lu Ao told Lin Qiyan the news in the afternoon.

Lin Qiyan was quite excited, "It's fine on my side. If the construction period is not too long, I can follow up and shoot the whole process."

"It mainly depends on your time. The key work content is concentrated within 20 days, but the photographer's work may span three months. When you think about it, the working time of three months is not short."

Lin Qiyan was really hesitant when he heard the words, "Three months is indeed a bit long, do you have to be here every day for these three months?"

"Well, I ask you to stay in Qianyong City. I have to go out to sea and dive every day for the past three months to take pictures of the growth of corals."

"Well, let me think about it again. The main reason is that three months is too long. I am a little worried about leaving my grandma at home alone."

"It's okay, you take your time to think about it." Lu Ao thought for a while, and then said, "I have basically been in the village for the past three months. If you only think about your grandma, I can help you take a look at it, and nothing will happen. question."

Lin Qiyan smiled, "I see, I'll go back and think about it and give you the answer tonight."

Grandma Lin Qiyan supported him very much, and he finally agreed to be a volunteer photographer for three months.

The photographer's working hours were earlier than the official working hours, and the next day he got on the train bound for Qianyong City and officially joined Huang Ningna's team.

Three days later, Lu Ao's boat sailed directly to Qianyong City.

Huang Ningna originally thought his fishing boat was an ordinary small fishing boat, but he did not expect it to be a 27-meter medium-sized fishing boat.

Seeing his fishing boat, Huang Ningna was very happy, "With such a big boat, our work will be much more convenient."

"My boat is fine for the time being. Except for these few days, you can call me when you want to use the boat."

"Okay, thank you, you really helped us a lot." Huang Ningna excitedly came up to shake hands with him, "No problem, we can set off today, first go to the nursery to bring the coral seedlings here?"

"Move it." Lu Ao said, "Move the coral seedlings today, and tomorrow we can go directly to the sea to plant corals at the destination."

Upon hearing this, Huang Ningna immediately contacted the person in charge of the nursery and asked them to move the coral nursery over for shipment.

Corals are relatively fragile, and some preparations have been done at the nursery.

Everyone helped together, and they were busy until after 1 o'clock in the evening before loading 360 corals into the boat.

In addition, all the tools for growing corals were also carried on board.

The small corals will spend the night on the boat and will be officially colonized tomorrow.

At four o'clock the next morning, Huang Ningna's team and volunteer team gathered at the pier.

Everyone boarded the boat one after another, waiting for Lu Ao to sail to the destination.

These small corals are to be planted near a coral reef somewhere in the open sea.

Lu Ao drove the boat for more than two hours and arrived at the destination.

He parked the boat, and the volunteers went to the deck one after another to move out the small corals.

Xiang Xingchang looked at the sky and admired it from the bottom of his heart, "This place is nice. I have been diving nearby for so many years, and it seems that this is the second time I have come here. If I knew it, I would have come here several times."

Lu Ao asked casually, "Then why don't you come?"

"Isn't there a coral reef underneath? The coral is so fragile, how dare you disturb it? We'd better dive far away in other sea areas."

Hearing what he said, Huang Ningna smiled wryly from the side: "It used to be a paradise for corals, but it was no longer two years ago. The corals underneath are basically all dead. You can go down and take a look and you will know."

"No way, isn't this place inaccessible, why are they all dead?"

"The problem of warming sea water. If we don't colonize corals today, there will be basically no corals in this area."

After hearing this, Lu Ao felt uncomfortable.

He didn't say much, just asked: "Are the tools ready? I'll go down and have a look."

"It's all ready, iron frame, underwater glue, small coral...you go down and see how to plant it first."

"Ah."

They had already discussed the plan before they came, and installed iron frames on the seabed. Some of the small corals were planted in the horizontal iron frame grids, and the other part of the corals were planted vertically and tied to the vertical iron frames.

Of course, how to do it and where to do it will not be known until they go into the water to investigate the specific situation.

Lu Ao's diving skills are the best. He put on his diving suit, put on his air cylinder, put on his video camera, and got into the water first.

Here is the shallow sea in the light-transmitting area. The seawater is very transparent. Even if the water depth is five to sixty meters, you can basically see the bottom of the sea.

It's just that looking down from the sea surface, the situation on the bottom of the sea is still relatively complicated. In the entire sea area, the bottom of the sea shows a yellow-green color of algae, and basically no other colors can be seen.

After Lu Ao got into the water, he went downstream.

When he was more than 20 meters away from the bottom of the sea, he found that what was underwater was not algae, but a large piece of coral skeleton.

These coral skeletons are like dry branches, poking straight on the bottom of the sea.

Numerous yellow-green algae are attached to the coral skeletons, making this underwater cemetery extraordinarily gloomy.

Lu Aoyou took a closer look and saw that this was the case for hundreds of meters, and there were no living fish or shrimps at all.

This kind of yellow-green algae is really unpleasant. Their color is the same as those stagnant ponds on land. Yellow-green, with occasional bubbles, people can easily associate it with poisonous things.

Lu Ao took pictures beside him.

He gently snapped a coral skeleton while taking pictures.

These coral skeletons are rotten and snap easily without the need for tools.

The other divers also came down. Seeing the situation on the bottom of the sea, their faces were not very good-looking, and they all gestured to each other to communicate.

After watching for a while, they went up again.

Lu Ao took photos in all directions, and soon swam up too.

Huang Ningna pulled people up one by one by the side of the boat and asked them, "How is the underwater situation?"

"I can't tell." Lu Ao handed over the camera, "Maybe you have to watch it yourself."

Huang Ningna took the camera silently and imported the pictures from the camera to the computer.

Soon he had a clear view of the current situation on the bottom of the sea, he sighed, but didn't say anything.

Xiang Xingchang wiped the water from his chin beside him, "Professor Huang, did you expect this situation?"

"It's not that it was expected. We came to see it the year before last. At that time, all the corals had bleached and were on the verge of death. We took some measures, but it didn't work. We knew at that time that the death of corals was irreversible. Come back this year, there must be no life, but I didn’t expect that all the corals are dead, and there is no sign of life.”

Huang Ningna said to archive the photos.

After saving, he pulled up photos taken when the coral was still alive.

"The corals used to be like this, and our goal now is to restore the corals here to more than 50.00% of their previous levels."

Lu Ao followed everyone to look over.

On Huang Ningna's screen, the coral videos taken before were played. At that time, the corals were still alive, and the seabed was colorful.

The sunlight shines on the coral through the extremely transparent sea water, and the tentacles inside the coral stretch out and shake with the waves.

There are countless coral fish swimming around on the coral.

Most of the reef fish are bright in color, reflecting each other with the coral, forming a vibrant scene.

The whole picture is very lively and interesting.

Lu Ao thought of a well-matched aquarium, but the scene on the bottom of the sea was far more magnificent than that of the aquarium.

Even just watching the video, he couldn't help holding his breath.

Huang Ningna saw that they were fascinated, minimized the video, and clicked on the photo Lu Ao just took.

Lin Qiyan sighed angrily, before he had time to say anything, the photo Lu Ao just took caught his eyes.

That vibrant, sunny colorful world suddenly turned into a yellow-green underwater grave, and everyone could smell the decaying breath of these coral corpses across the screen.

Under such a strong contrast, everyone feels as if something is choked up in their hearts, and they feel very uncomfortable.

Lin Qiyan couldn't help but said, "Professor, let's watch the previous video again."

Huang Ningna sighed, switched back to the video, and continued playing.

This video is made from time-lapse photos.

The first part of the video is still a photo taken in the early days. Later, as time went by, the coral gradually bleached and cast an ominous atmosphere. The last scene of the video was fixed at the scene where the coral died and yellow-green algae began to grow on it.

Lu Ao stared at the video, and suddenly asked, "Is there a section of coral in the middle that is particularly gorgeous? Did something go wrong then?"

"Yes." Huang Ningna glanced at him appreciatively, "You looked very carefully."

Huang Ningna returned the video. The corals on the video were obviously much more colorful than at the beginning. The seabed was colorful and stretched for hundreds of meters, forming a visual feast.

Huang Ningna said: "This is actually a self-rescue behavior of corals. They produce chemical sunscreens in their bodies, trying to resist sunlight and high temperature through this method, but unfortunately, this effort has no effect, and they still die. gone."

Lu Ao stood aside blankly.

It was hard for him to imagine how these little beings worked hard to protect themselves under harsh conditions, struggled hard, and even evolved and produced new substances in a short period of time.

It was useless at all, the environment changed too fast, they didn't have time to adapt, and after a tragic struggle, they still entered death.

Others were also stunned.

No one expected that corals have such a mechanism.

Lin Qiyan was holding the camera beside him, and murmured, "Isn't this too difficult?"

"Yeah." Huang Ningna smiled wryly, "There is no other way except for us humans to help. Of course, our human efforts may not be effective. Now we are also facing a situation where we cannot protect ourselves, and we can't tell who it is help someone."

Everyone is silent.

After a while, Lu Ao said: "Plant the corals first, didn't we bring all the corals?"

"Yes, yes, let's go into the water and plant corals."

Everyone woke up like a dream, and they took tools to go into the water to plant corals.

The first step in planting coral is to install an iron frame on the seabed.

Small corals are very fragile, especially those corals that have not yet settled down. If an iron frame is not installed on the bottom of the sea, a typhoon will be enough to roll up all the small corals, and the waves will take them to distant places.

Once the coral is swept away, the chances of survival are very low.

Therefore, when planting corals, an iron frame must be fixed on the seabed to give the corals a shelter.

These iron frames want to be fixed on the bottom of the sea, they must be hammered into the bottom of the sea with a hammer.

The buoyancy of the bottom of the sea is too great, and most people can't exert their strength on the bottom of the sea.

Xiang Xingchang and the others held the hammer and were exhausted out of breath in the bottom of the sea. A bottle of air would run out in less than 10 minutes.

Everyone had to go on board frequently to change gas cylinders.

Working on the seabed is a special test of physical strength and endurance. Even if ordinary people want to help, they may not be able to help.

Lu Ao participated in the frontline work of the seabed.

Soon, everyone discovered that Lu Ao installed the iron frame quickly and well.

For other iron frames, three or five people may not be able to fix it in 10 minutes, but he can basically fix it in 3 minutes alone.

Lu Ao's working ability is too strong.

In the end, everyone simply left all the iron frames for him to install, while others were responsible for moving and fixing them, and volunteers with less strength were responsible for planting.

Lu Ao didn't mind either.

He installed the remaining iron frames in one go, and the volunteers who planted corals planted more than 2000 corals.

Lu Ao turned back to help plant corals.

Lin Qiyan carried a gas cylinder on his back and carried a heavy waterproof camera to follow and shoot the whole process underwater.

He didn't say a word, but when eating at noon, everyone saw that his face was pale with exhaustion.

In fact, everyone's complexion was not much better, including Lu Ao.

Growing corals is exhausting.

This is completely different from the concept of construction on land. People without relevant experience can't imagine why a planting job is so tiring that they can't even breathe.

Seeing them like this, Huang Ningna felt guilty. In addition to providing professional guidance, she also provided logistical support.

Seeing that they were going to work in the water after eating, Huang Ningna said: "Why don't you take a rest for a while, there are still more than 7000 plants left, which can't be planted in the afternoon, and it will not be a big problem to plant again tomorrow."

Lu Ao took the lead, "No, corals are too sensitive to temperature. The ship has been at sea for so long, and these corals have been affected by the temperature. Plant them first, and their survival rate will be higher."

Xiang Xingchang responded immediately, "Yes, you can rest whenever you want, and finish the task first."

Huang Ningna helped them check their equipment, "That being said, the body is the most important thing, especially in the sea where the situation is more dangerous, everyone must protect themselves."

Lu Ao nodded, and with a "plop", he fell back into the sea.

Seeing this, Lin Qiyan also jumped into the sea clumsily, carrying the camera to follow.

Lu Ao was already strong, and he didn't slack off when planting corals. Others were so tired that they couldn't take it anymore. When they had to go back to the boat to rest, he was still working.

Xiang Xingchang called two or three times, telling him to go up and rest, but he refused.

Until after [-] o'clock in the evening, Lu Ao glued the last piece of coral to the iron frame with underwater glue, and floated up with the tools.

Other volunteers around also packed their tools and floated up.

Everyone looked at each other.Eyes full of excitement.

Lu Ao still had no expression. He was so tired that he couldn't even make an expression.

Once on board, he sat on the deck, unloaded his gas cylinder and began to breathe.

"what--"

A volunteer beside him shouted happily towards the sea.

The other volunteers were infected by him, and they also shouted. Everyone hugged each other without even taking off their diving suits.

Huang Ningna and his students were also surrounded by volunteers and hugged them hard.

Everyone is in a very happy mood.

Xiang Xingchang gave Lu Ao a thumbs up, and said: "You are a great hero, and you have completed more than half of the total work by yourself!"

"Lu Ao is amazing!!!"

"Lu Ao hero!!!"

Everyone shouted and came to hug Lu Ao.

Lu Ao has a relatively cold personality and doesn't like these group activities very much. He waved his hands to refuse those who rushed up to hug him.

Who knew that the volunteer suddenly grabbed his hand, roared, and rushed forward to carry him on his shoulder.

The others reacted, laughing and rushing over to carry Lu Ao up.

"Respect the hero!"

"Heroes!"

"Respect Lu Ao!"

"Professor Huang!"

Everyone burst out of strength from nowhere, and directly threw Lu Ao up, still cheering.

Lin Qiyan blinked tiredly beside him, but smiled and picked up the camera to record the scene in front of him.
