A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 318

The chef got busy as soon as he arrived. The vegetables were all washed and clean, so all he had to do was cook. The women in the village helped out and also took the opportunity to see what dishes could be made with this precious fish.

Lunch was a casual affair, but dinner was the most important meal.

After everything was almost done, everyone carried offerings and incense sticks, chatting and laughing as they walked towards the village temple on the mountain.

The village temple is much cleaner after being cleaned up, but the dilapidated parts are still dilapidated.

The village temple and ancestral hall have existed for a long time, and at one point they were vandalized by outsiders.

The village has no money. These two places belong to the village collective, and it's impossible for one or two families to repair them properly.

The village chief wanted to organize the villagers to each donate a little money to make repairs, but in this era when no one is rich, bringing up this idea would only make people dislike him.

Although it was dilapidated, it did not stop people from worshipping with devotion.

Yun Jiao's masters and teachers also joined in the fun, placing offerings, bouquets, wreaths, and small ornaments made of seashells in front of the statue before everyone lined up to burn incense.

Yun Jiao was inexplicably pushed to the front.

"Jiaojiao, go quickly and ask the Goddess Mazu to bless you."

Alright, Yun Jiao took the incense and, under the guidance of several respected elders in the village, knelt down as the first to perform the ritual.

She was very confident in her abilities and didn't need anyone's protection at sea.

but……

May Goddess Mazu bless my family with safety at sea.

After that, it was the turn of the others, and Yun Jiao watched from the side.

She glanced at the village temple, which had several holes in it, and pursed her lips.

If she paid for the repair of the village temple, would Mazu like her more and grant her wish?

I'll find some time to discuss it with my fathers.

After the lively worship ceremony, everyone moved on to the ancestral hall.

Very well, the ancestral hall is also dilapidated.

Their village is really poor.

After the gods and ancestors had finished their worship, everyone returned to Yun Jiao's house in a lively atmosphere.

Start the meal.

When the dishes made with those expensive ingredients were all laid out on the table, everyone was dazzled.

Simply put, the presentation is just too beautiful.

"Thanks to Jiaojiao, we were able to experience what it was like for those noble gentlemen to eat back then."

"There's also wine. The Yunlin Hai family is really generous. This wine is quite good too."

"I'll try this tuna and see what it tastes like."

Yun Jiao's master, teacher, and fellow disciples set up a separate table in the room.

And just enough space was set up on a table.

"Did Jiaojiao catch all of these in the sea?"

Wang Jianlin looked at the seafood on the table. This meal would cost a lot of money if eaten at a fancy restaurant.

"Yes, that little girl is quite capable."

Yun Jiao chuckled: "We have the help of orcas."

They all knew that Yun Jiao could tame orcas, except for her teacher, the old man, and the old man's grandson.

Grandson Gu also came to join in the fun after learning that Yun Jiao had invited his grandfather.

"Can they really tame orcas? When are you going to take me to see it, Jiaojiao?"

Yun Jiao ate a piece of tuna; it was fresh, tender, and smooth.

It was indeed very delicious.

Most importantly, this fish is quite nutritious.

A big bite of meat is incredibly satisfying, and there's hardly any fishy smell.

"Come next time, it's too late to go today."

Old Gu patted his grandson: "All you ever think about are nonsensical things." Gu Chen was unconvinced and wanted to argue, but he met his grandfather's gaze, which looked like he wanted to punch him.

He shrank back, thinking, "Forget it then, I'll do it myself next time!"
Everyone enjoyed the meal.

After the meal, the villagers didn't leave. Instead, they helped wash the dishes, clean the floor, and take back the tables, chairs, and other items that each family had brought.

And so the day passed by in a lively and bustling manner.

However, everyone will probably be thinking about this meal for a long time.

They've really made something of themselves, actually eating tuna, lobster, and abalone!

Anyway, most people wouldn't be willing to eat these things.

After seeing off the people from the county that evening, Yun Jiao's family washed their faces, took showers, tidied up, and went to bed.

Some of the boats that Yun Jiao found belonged to other villages. The village chief went to the police station, and afterwards, three more boats were found to their owners.

Those people brought gifts to Yunjiao's house to express their gratitude.

Yun Jiao's family boat is gone, but that doesn't stop Yun Jiao from going out to sea.

She reads books in the morning, and after breakfast, she goes to the sea to relax.

Today, Yun Jiao came to the place where the giant clam was located and took a look at the giant clam that she had operated on before. It was still alive and well.

Yun Jiao touched the giant clam's shell and went to find some of the giant clam's favorite foods.

However, the things these creatures like to eat are not easy to catch. Giant clams feed on the larvae of some very small plankton and some algae.

And don't be fooled by the fact that giant clams look dirty because they are covered in algae; their main food source is these algae.

Giant clams, large shellfish, once they grow in a certain place, will stay there for their entire lives unless there are special circumstances.

It's pitiful that a perfectly healthy living thing has managed to turn itself into a living plant.

After feeding the giant giant clam, Yun Jiao looked at the other giant clams with kind eyes.

Since this method works, she won't hold back.

These guys seem to enjoy singing too, so she can sing more songs to make up for it, no big deal.

Moreover, now that she has obtained the benefits from these giant clams, she will protect all the giant clams in this area from now on.

Yun Jiao circled around the giant clam's territory, picked up some trash, and then left.

This time we arrived at the location of the shipwreck.

The interior of the shipwreck was difficult to access, and she carried away most of the usable items scattered around the exterior, bit by bit, like a little squirrel, back home.

However, not many of them are usable, because many of these porcelain items were broken when the ship sank, and it's rare to find any intact ones.

There were also some things that looked like tea leaves or fabric, but after being soaked in seawater for so long, they were completely useless.

Yun Jiao swam around the sunken ship twice; she planned to go inside the ship today.

The contents inside must be even better; what she feared was that the wood from the sunken ship might collapse.

No matter how fast you run after you go in, you won't be able to escape when it collapses, and you'll get injured.

Yun Jiao would rather not get hurt than risk getting injured.

Finally, I found a place that looked fairly sturdy and had a decent amount of space, and carefully crawled inside.

The inside of the sunken ship is truly eerie.

There are also quite a few small fish swimming around inside.

Most importantly, there are several human skeletons inside.

It was creepy, but Yun Jiao wasn't afraid.

She also pulled several gold and gemstone rings off one of the human bones.

That ring was clearly a man's; he wore several on his fingers and had a thick gold chain around his neck.

Yun Jiao: "I won't take the things for nothing. I'll take you up there for burial."

Grandpa once said that people like to return to their roots and find peace in the earth.

It's impossible for fallen leaves to return to their roots, but they can still be laid to rest in the earth.
