Ye An

The otters and finless porpoises no longer approached, and the wooden boat continued to dive, passing through the muddy sand and approaching the mining riverbed.

As Xiao Yun said before, these ships are quite convenient for mining the ore at the bottom of the river, but it's a pity that the loading capacity is average, otherwise, the machines on the shore can be reduced by half.

The fleet traveled along the river bed, passing through the water belt of tumbling sand, and Ye An discovered three new ores one after another.Unsure of the purpose, each part is taken away and loaded on the ship, and we will make calculations after landing.

There are several special mutant fishes living on the riverbed, one of which is similar to the monkfish, but smaller in size, the skin on its body can change color and pattern according to the surrounding environment, it is difficult to find their existence when lying motionless on the bottom of the river .

"good stuff."

Sensing Xiao Yun's thoughts, Ye An couldn't help being surprised.

Xiao Yun gestured, and the boat paused, hovering above the river bed.The hunters grabbed their daggers and short knives one after another and got off the boat one by one with the help of ropes tied around their bodies, searching for this mutated fish at the bottom of the river.

The mutated fish was very cunning, sensing danger, they immediately dispersed, swung their tails and stirred up a large amount of sand, taking the opportunity to hide in the sandy bottom.You can't catch them unless you dig the sand out.

Xiao Yun condensed into an ice cone at the bottom of the river bed, and the tip stood up, forcing the mutated fish to come out of the mud.

The hunters stood guard above, swimming between the ice cones, holding their daggers backwards, aiming at every moving target.

The mutated fish had no choice but to come out of its hiding place and play hide-and-seek with the hunters among the ice picks, avoiding one chase after another.

Finless porpoises and otters went back and forth, and the turbulent sand did not hinder them in the slightest, and the mutated fish that were fleeing quickly became their targets.

The finless porpoise moves nimbly, and the otter does the same.

By the time hunters are chasing schools of fish, they've made their mark.Especially otters, after catching mutated fish, they did not rush to eat it, but peeled off the fish skin very carefully, and only ate the pinkish white fish.

Different from the pitted fish skin, the flesh of the mutated fish is crystal clear, torn piece by piece, which looks quite attractive.

The otters and finless porpoises were full, probably because they felt that the hunters were moving too slowly, so they each dragged a few mutated fish to Ye An's boat.

Ye An pointed to himself, and then to the mutant fish.

for him?

The otter turned over and patted its forelegs. The finless porpoise straightened up and touched the side of the boat with its forehead.

Knowing the meaning of the two, Ye An couldn't help but smile.But you can't take their prey in vain, untie the animal belt you carry, take out the spar from it, crush it and throw it to them, as a thank you to the prey.

The otter and the finless porpoise ate the spar and swam away successively.

The finless porpoise happened to be passing by, and after a full stomach, it was necessary to catch up with the group in front to avoid being left further behind.

Otters are busy building new homes, and likewise don't have much time to play.In addition, according to their agreement with Ye An, while building the nest, another batch of wood must be prepared to grow moss.Things are not complicated, and it takes a lot of effort.The whole family must be busy, and there must be no laziness or slack.

After a few missed shots, the hunters gradually found the trick, and assigned a few people to drive the fish away, while the rest guarded the edge of the ice cone. When encountering the mutant fish rushing over, they used the tied coats as fishing nets, and it didn't take long to set them up. Filled with two wooden boats.

Feeling the same, Xiao Yun ordered everyone to stop.

Ye An poked the mutated fish on the boat with his finger, and was almost pulled by its tail.

Xiao Yun pulled out the dagger, with the back of the knife pointing down, and struck the fish's head.The strength was just right, the fish head was not seriously damaged, but it managed to make the target stop struggling and lay motionless on the boat board.

"The skin and bones of this kind of fish can be used as medicine, and the taste of the fish is average." Xiao Yun described the purpose of the mutated fish in his mind, and Ye An could understand it without words.

"It looks delicious." Thinking of the scene of otters and finless porpoises eating fish, Ye An picked up a mutated fish and shook it a few times, unavoidably surprised.

Xiao Yun didn't say much, just told Ye An that he would know the reason when he got back to the shore and roasted one.

The wooden boat continued to move forward on the bottom of the river, passed through the sand belt, and arrived at the edge of the mine one after another.

The ore deposits at the bottom of the river are extremely rich, extending forward from the edge of the mine, there are still long and narrow ore belts.It's just that Ye An's current ability is not suitable for expanding the scope of mining.

Confirming that there is no new type of ore, Ye An gestured to Xiao Yun, who gave the order to everyone, and the fleet began to float up.

With the power of the stern, the wooden boats gradually tilted to a certain angle, and after a short hover, they left the bottom of the river at an astonishing speed like arrows piercing the clouds, breaking through the water one by one.

After the boat floated to the surface and gradually stopped, Ye An took off his ventilation mask and combed his wet black hair. He was a little uncomfortable with the bright light and had to squint his eyes.

The boat docked quickly, and everyone disembarked one after another.

The ore is all sampled, and the quantity is not large enough to fill a car bucket.

The mutated fish was a little troublesome. It was frozen the moment it came out of the water, and its body was bent into various shapes.

Ye An took the initiative to help, grabbed a mutated fish, held the head and tail of the fish respectively, and with a click, the bow-shaped body of the fish was straightened.

Everyone stayed by the river for more than half an hour before loading all the harvest of this trip into the car.

The wooden boats and machinery remained where they were, fastened to the bank with ropes so as not to be swept away by the water.

The Yancheng people they brought were also handed over to Ye An, who were responsible for the repair and maintenance of the ships and machines.If Ye An is willing, he can use local materials and let them build more wooden boats.

"Can they build big ships?" Ye An asked Xiao Yun while sitting in the car.

"Yes, they are all famous shipbuilders in Yancheng." Xiao Yun replied, looking at Ye An, "Do you need a big ship?"

"I have this plan." Ye An leaned forward on the back of the chair, tilted his head and smiled, "If there is a chance, I really want to go to sea."

"Going to sea?" Xiao Yun was taken aback for a moment.

"Don't you want to?" Ye An asked back.

Xiao Yun didn't make a sound, but the color of his pupils changed suddenly.

Ye An leaned back on the seat, raised his hand to press Xiao Yun's shoulder, brushed his chin with his fingertips, and gradually moved up until it covered the corners of his eyes, with a slightly hoarse voice: "I like your eyes. "

Jason and Iron Ax in the front seat were sitting upright, looking forward, like two statues.

Intuition tells them, no matter what they think in their hearts, they must not turn back at this moment.Do everything possible to reduce the sense of existence, when you don't exist is the best choice.

As the convoy approached the camp, the noise of the market could be heard from afar.

Ye An looked out the car window and waved to the people guarding the fence.When the other party lowered the suspension bridge, he smiled at Xiao Yun: "Tonight?"

Xiao Yun leaned over, pecked the corner of Ye An's mouth, and said in a low voice, "Okay."

Ye An licked his lips, he meant that there was a banquet in the camp tonight, it should be very lively, and he invited Xiao Yun to the banquet with him.Judging from the other party's performance, it was obvious that he had misunderstood what he meant.

However, there is nothing wrong with this misunderstanding.

Ye An grabbed the back of Xiao Yun's head with his backhand, lowered his head, and covered his lips.

The beauty offered to throw herself into her arms, who could refuse?

He couldn't do it anyway.
