Chapter 142 Strange Creatures

"Zhenzhen, this is a sea urchin from Australia." Zhou Ran looked over and smiled. He saw Li Zhenzhen's eyes suddenly become bright, and smiled and explained: "Now is the season for eating sea urchins. You wait here for me, I'll go and catch some."

He put down the bucket full of oysters, holding a scoop net in his hand, looking for the right angle around the small water hole, looking at the direction, and suddenly stretched out the net to catch them.

Unexpectedly, those sea urchins looked slow, but they moved very fast. Before the scoop net could reach them, they had already escaped quickly.

All of a sudden, the sand at the bottom of the water hole was also stirred up, forming a mist that provided the best cover for these sea urchins.

Zhou Ran was unwilling to give up. He rolled up his trousers and carefully went down to the water hole, slowly approaching the place where the sea urchins gathered.

Li Zhenzhen was watching from the shore with great concern. The water hole seemed shallow, but it was actually almost up to Zhou Ran's thigh. She frowned and shouted, "Zhou Ran, you'd better come up. It's too dangerous."

Zhou Ran turned around and smiled, and for a moment he seemed to outshine the bright sunshine. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. I'll be fine soon. Just stand there and don't move."

"Then be careful." Li Zhenzhen thought about it, but still felt uneasy. She couldn't help but follow Zhou Ran's footsteps and paced back and forth beside the small water hole.

Zhou Ran was concentrating on catching sea urchins at the moment and didn't notice Li Zhenzhen's actions. He found that these sea urchins were very sensitive to changes in the water flow, and suddenly his eyes lit up and a plan came to his mind.

He spread his legs slightly, constantly stirring up waves under the water hole. As these waves spread, the sea urchins were gradually forced to a corner of the stone wall.

This is the shadow of the water hole. A large protruding rock blocks the hot sunlight and creates a cool shadow for this small water hole. The sea urchins gathered here, perhaps mistakenly thinking that this place is safe. Therefore, they huddled together tightly, motionless, trying to cover their ears and steal the bell.

Zhou Ran's eyes flashed with a smile. He quietly put the net into the water, slowly approached the sea urchins, and then suddenly swung it, and immediately caught a large net full of sea urchins.

"Haha..." He laughed happily, and was about to turn around to tell Li Zhenzhen, but when he looked up, he saw Li Zhenzhen standing beside him.

He stretched out the net and said, "Zhenzhen, look."

Li Zhenzhen was also very surprised. The sea urchins Zhou Ran caught were very large. She used her palm to measure them and found that their bodies were larger than her palm.

As soon as these sea urchins left the water, their spikes began to wriggle and look quite threatening.

Li Zhenzhen didn't dare to touch them. She turned around and quickly brought an empty bucket, saying happily, "Put it here."

Zhou Ran was still standing in the water hole. He watched everything with a smile, but he didn't put the sea urchins in immediately. He held the bucket in his hand and said as he drew water: "Sea urchins will die easily in water, and they will no longer be fresh."

He put the bucket full of water back to the shore, and then poured all the sea urchins in the net bag into it, and warned: "Zhenzhen, be careful, don't touch them."
