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

Chapter 319

As for other human bones, she can't bring that many with her right now.

Yun Jiao didn't dare to go too deep. She walked around the area and found a box stuck in a large hole in the deck.

After much effort, it was finally pulled up, perhaps because too much force was used, accompanied by a loud bang.

The already dangerous shipwreck is now in even greater danger.

Inside, many fish darted swiftly through the boat and swam out to escape.

Yun Jiao dragged a large suitcase and ran away quickly, of course not forgetting the seemingly wealthy old man, Bone.

Once outside, the water was churned up because part of the boat had collapsed.

Yun Jiao put the bone aside.

"Sorry, it seems like I lost a bit of the bone."

Setting the box aside for now, Yun Jiao found a rock on the seabed and sat down, resting her chin on her hands. She planned to wait until the commotion stopped before going over to see if she could find the bones that her brother had lost.

At this moment, Yun Jiao seemed too harmless, and several brightly colored little fish swam to her side.

A small red fish even nibbled on her soft, chubby cheeks.

Yun Jiao shook her head.

"It itches, don't suck my face."

Suddenly, Yun Jiao saw a cute little thing.

A type of marine mollusk, mostly snow-white in color, with only two black, rabbit-ear-like appendages visible, and a tail resembling a sea anemone.

This thing is a sea hare, which is also a sea slug.

It's tiny, a white, soft ball, and looks quite cute.

Yun Jiao gently touched it with her finger, and the creature shrank to the side.

However, soon, the little thing raised the part of its body that was its head, and its feet, which looked like the hem of a skirt, reached around and finally landed on Yun Jiao's little hand.

"Hehe, it's soft."

Yun Jiao played with it for a while before placing the little thing on a brightly colored blue 'stone' not far away.

But it wasn't a stone; it was a sponge.

Just by looking at its color, you can tell this stuff is poisonous.

But this poisonous substance is the food of this cute and easily bullied little sea hare.

Yes, these sea hares are poisonous.

If it didn't have some skill, this little thing wouldn't have survived in the sea.

The murky seawater near the shipwreck gradually became clear again.

Yun Jiao swam over, and thankfully, the spot she had just crawled through hadn't collapsed too badly.

She was more careful this time, going in to pick up the bones and running away.

Back with Brother Bones, he stuffed all the bones into a net, then carried the bones in one hand and the box in the other back to the sea.

She found a scenic island.

"I can only take you this far, I can't take you back, otherwise my father and the others will be frightened."

Yun Jiao earnestly negotiated terms with Gu Tou, then pulled out her tools and started digging a hole with a small shovel.

When it's almost done, put the bones in and cover them with soil.

Yun Jiao clapped her hands: "Okay, I'm going back now."

By the time I got home, it was already quite late.

Dragging this big suitcase back will attract too much attention; I'll hide it first.

She wasn't in a hurry to open it.

Then he leisurely returned home.

"Father, Mother, I'm home!"

After finishing dinner, Yun Jiao took out the things she had brought from the seabed.

However, she made it clear beforehand: "These were all taken from a skeleton."

Upon hearing this, everyone who had reached out to touch the glittering golden treasures abruptly changed course and withdrew their hands.

Yunlin River: "That was close."

"No, why are you taking everything?"

The items are good, but the thought that they were taken from a dead person makes me feel uneasy.

Yun Jiao: "Then shall you take them?"

Everyone looked at each other.

We should still take it.

With something so shiny right in front of me, I'd keep thinking about it if I didn't take it.

Yun Jiao: "I took his things, brought them up from the seabed, and buried them on a small island."

Upon hearing this, Yun Linhai and the others fell silent for a moment. "That's how it should be."

"Sigh, everyone says that fallen leaves return to their roots and that they can rest in peace when they are buried in the earth. How miserable must it be for those who die at sea, spending their whole lives in the water?"

To be laid to rest in peace is a hope etched into their very bones.

This was especially true for people in ancient times.

"What about these things?"

Yun Jiao: "If you don't want it, then take it and ask Grandpa Gu if he'll accept it."

Yun Jiao's voice was clear and crisp: "Sell it for money, and then use the money to build temples and ancestral halls in the village."

Anyway, it was free.

I don't feel bad about spending it.

No one expected Yun Jiao to have such a thought.

For a moment, everyone looked at her with complicated expressions.

"Jiaojiao, how can you be so kind?"

Wang Mei hugged Yun Jiao and couldn't help but rub her little face.

The little one is like a beautiful doll; he behaves well even when his face is rubbed.

Yun Jiao: "Because I have money."

She said smugly, "I won't sell the things I like, but I can sell these."

The implication is that she doesn't really like these things either.

The main problem was the big gold chain, and another ring that didn't quite suit her taste.

Yun Jiao: "If we build temples for the gods and ancestral halls for our ancestors, they will be happy and protect us."

Yunlin Hai, a man, was immediately moved to tears.

He held his little daughter and ruffled her hair several times.

"My daughter is so well-behaved."

Yun Jiao: Dead fish eyes.

Her hair had become a messy, unkempt mess.

The village chief must know about the construction of the village temple and ancestral hall. The money must have a source; otherwise, if they take out such a large sum of money, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Therefore, these things need to be approved by the village chief.

But we can't talk about the shipwreck.

Yun Linhai packed all these things into a bag, and then the two brothers took Yun Jiao to find the village chief.

"Village chief, we need to talk to you."

The old village chief gave Yun Jiao a kind smile when he saw her.

"what's up?"

Yun Linhai simply placed those things on the table.

Upon opening it, the village chief gasped in shock.

“This, these…”

"Village chief, please calm down."

As he gets older, Yun Linhe was afraid that he might get too excited and upset, so he quickly helped him calm down.

"Where did these things come from?!"

Yun Linhai: "Jiaojiao picked it up from the sea... from a corpse that had turned into a skeleton."

village head:…………

Good heavens, Jiaojiao is really brave.

Yunlinhe: "She took these things, and the remains were taken out to sea and buried on an island. But Jiaojiao said that these things should be sold to make money to repair our village temple and ancestral hall."

The village chief was initially puzzled. Everyone tries to keep such matters to themselves, so why were these two brothers bringing it up in front of him?

Upon hearing this, he immediately stood up excitedly.

"real?!"

Building village temples and ancestral halls has always been his wish.

Unfortunately, he had no money, so he could only watch as the village temple and ancestral hall fell into disrepair.

“Really, these things have a somewhat questionable origin. If we use them to build village temples and ancestral halls, it can be considered as accumulating merit for that person.”

In this way, it is the best place for these things.

The village chief paced back and forth to calm himself down, then walked up to Jiaojiao and grasped her small hand with his large, wrinkled, dark hand. His voice choked with emotion.

"Thank you, Jiaojiao, our whole village should thank you."

(I checked, and there has been a policy since 1983 requiring the handover of found gold and similar items, as well as restrictions on salvaging shipwrecks containing antiques. But this is for the sake of the novel's plot, so please don't apply it to reality.)
