Chapter 413 Consuming the Mermaid Pearl
When the train arrived at the station, Yun Jiao immediately saw her father and mother craning their necks to look around on the platform.

"Father, Mother!"

Yun Jiao and Yun Xiaoba quickly called out.

Even though it was noisy inside the train station, their relatives heard their child's voice immediately.

Yun Jiao ran over and saw that Yun Linhai, Shen Yunlian, and the others had also run over. They then picked them up in their arms.

"You're back."

Everyone had a smile on their face.

Gulanting immediately had someone drive them home.

It's so cold riding a motorcycle or a tricycle in this weather.

Returning to familiar surroundings, listening to the barking of dogs and meowing of cats, even though they have experienced the hustle and bustle of big cities, they still feel more at ease in their hometown.

The fire in the stove was already lit, and after returning home, the whole family sat around the steaming fire.

"Jiaojiao, how was the auction? Were there a lot of people?"

"Did you take any photos? I'd like to see them."

"Have you sold anything?"

"How are Xiao Liu and Lao San doing? Are they cold...?"

"Is it snowing heavily in the capital right now?"

Everyone started asking questions all at once.

Yun Jiao: "Third Brother and Sixth Brother are both very good. Third Brother is now participating in a research project with an old professor. He's amazing. Many of his classmates at school say he's incredible."

"There weren't that many people at the auction, but they were all incredibly wealthy."

"The antiques have been sold. I should be able to buy the island by spring."

Yun Jiao and Yun Xiaoba answered their questions patiently.

She quite enjoys the atmosphere of her family sitting together and chatting.

The two described how the wealthy people at the auction spent lavishly, leaving the Yun family completely stunned.

"Wow, I thought our family was already very rich. There are so many rich people here."

"Yes, that ginseng is really that valuable, so many people are scrambling for it."

"Nonsense, that's something that can save lives. Do you think it's worth anything?"

Shen Yunlian: "Someone from my hometown found ginseng before, it was said to be thirty years old, and it sold for quite a lot of money."

Yun Linhai scratched his head and chuckled, "It would be great if we could find ginseng someday."

"What are you thinking? That stuff is very rare, otherwise why would it be so expensive? And it's mostly found deep in the mountains. It's hard to find even a tiny ginseng in such a big forest, not to mention there are poisonous snakes and wild beasts in the depths of the forest."

So even if they knew there were valuable ginseng roots deep in the mountains, who would dare to go in?

Yun Jiao stroked her chin, and thought, "Hmm, I'm actually quite interested."

Even if we don't sell it, it's good to keep it at home.

Learning medicine from her master, she gained a clearer understanding of how precious ginseng, especially old wild ginseng, is.

"By the way, Jiaojiao, didn't you say you auctioned off some beads? Where are they?"

Yun Jiao went to take out the mermaid pearl and show it to them.

They were stunned by the fluorescent blue beads.

Wang Mei said blankly, "Wow, so beautiful."

The others nodded.

They had seen quite a few sea pearls.

But all the pearls I've seen before, even the luminous pearls, pale in comparison to this one.

"Jiaojiao, what kind of beads are these?"

Yun Jiao chose to tell a small lie this time: "I don't know."

It's not a lack of trust.

The fewer people who know that this is the legendary mermaid pearl, the better.

Even the most discreet person can have their secrets uncovered unintentionally.

Let everyone think that this is just a special, glowing pearl.

Everyone admired the pearl for a while, and then handed it to Yun Jiao.

"You'd better keep this safe." This is worth over a million.

Yun Jiao and Yun Xiaoba took out some of the things they had bought from the capital.

For example, game consoles.

These are Yun Xiaowu and his friends' favorite foods, as well as some other foods that aren't available here.

Since the reform and opening up, their country has developed at an astonishing pace, especially in the capital and other major cities, where new things emerge every month.

Everyone was moved when they saw what Yun Jiao and the others brought back.

"The capital city is really different; we don't have these things here."

"There's one more thing that hasn't arrived yet, and we can't bring it with us. Uncle Gu contacted a truck team that came to Haishi to help us transport it."

Yunlinhe: "What kind of thing needs to be delivered by special truck?"

"bike."

Yun Jiao and Yun Xiaoba spoke in unison.

"Huh? Don't we already have one at home? Why do we need to buy a bicycle?"

With motorcycles, bicycles are no longer as appealing as Yunlinhai and Yunlinhe.

Riding a motorcycle is much cooler than riding a bicycle.

Yun Xiaoba quickly said, "Oh, these aren't for adults to ride, they're bicycles for us kids."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiaowu and the others immediately stood up excitedly.

"Huh? Ours? Are they really for us to ride?"

Yun Jiao nodded: "Yes, besides the bicycle, I also bought a TV."

"What!"

The adults in Yunlinhai were now very excited.

Television sets? Nobody in their village has bought one yet.

Having a radio at home was considered a big deal, let alone a television.

Yun Jiao: "Since we've already gone, and Uncle Gu even arranged for a truck to deliver the goods, of course we should buy more."

Therefore, the whole family began to look forward to it.

However, due to the bad weather, the truck convoy may arrive later than usual.

After taking a bath and soaking my feet at night, and getting a good night's sleep, I felt much more energetic the next day.

Yun Jiao, carrying the mermaid pearl, said, "Father, Mother, I'm going to the seaside."

"Okay, don't catch a cold, be careful." "Okay."

Yun Jiao ran to the beach, and after checking that no one was around, she jumped directly into the sea.

It had been a long time since Yun Jiao had been to the sea, and she felt that the moment her body touched the seawater, every pore on her body opened up.

so comfortable...

Sure enough, she still prefers the sea.

After swimming for quite some time, she arrived at the area where she had previously discovered the enormous red coral.

The sky is rather gloomy this time of year, and it looks like it's about to rain.

Yun Jiao looked at the mermaid pearl in her hand and swallowed it without hesitation.

She didn't swallow it before because she didn't know what would happen if she swallowed the mermaid pearl, and mermaids and mermaid pearls both belong to the sea, so she intuitively felt that it was more appropriate to come to the sea.

After swallowing the mermaid pearl, Yun Jiao carefully examined her body and felt nothing amiss...

Wait, why do I feel so sleepy?

She slowly closed her eyes and didn't notice the soft blue fluorescence gradually emanating from her body.

Even though she wasn't swimming, her entire body was suspended in the seawater at that moment.

Blue light gradually appeared on my arms and legs, forming scales.

An energy belonging to the ocean emanated from her.

The surrounding fish were all attracted, and countless small fish gathered around her, their various colors creating a beautiful picture.

"Woooooooo..."

"Woooooo~~~~"

The sounds of large fish such as killer whales, dolphins, humpback whales, and sperm whales could be heard.

As if drawn by this energy, they all came this way.

If anyone were to see this, they would be astonished to discover that all kinds of fish are swimming in a clockwise direction around a certain point.

Yun Jiao's legs seemed to transform into a blue, exceptionally dreamy fishtail.

However, the fish tail only lasted for less than a minute before disappearing.

The blue 'scales' on Yun Jiao's legs also disappeared into Yun Jiao's skin.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Jiao woke up.

Her eyes turned an ocean blue, crystal clear, more beautiful than the most dazzling gemstones.

And hair.

Yun Jiao glanced at the hair that had drifted in front of her. Not only had it grown longer, but the ends were also tinged with blue.

After checking my whole body again, it seems that apart from feeling more relaxed, swimming faster, and having slightly fairer skin, there haven't been any other changes.

But what's with all these fish around here?

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The orca came over and rubbed against Yun Jiao vigorously.

The sound was very cheerful.

Yun Jiao: "Long time no see, everyone."

Upon closer inspection, wow, there were quite a few cooked fish.

Some sharks also arrived, but they didn't wreak havoc here. Instead, they stared at Yun Jiao with their beady eyes.

Yun Jiao ignored them since they didn't attack her.

I greeted my friends one by one and found that they were all unusually enthusiastic today.

'I like it, I like it.'

'A fragrant person, a beautiful person.'

'like……'

Yes, most of them were expressing their liking for her.

Yun Jiao: "Thank you, I like you all too."

Having dealt with her overly enthusiastic ocean friends, Yun Jiao began to study the changes in her own body.

It's not clear yet.

Never mind, I'll go home first.

I don't know how long I've been unconscious.

This time, it only took a few minutes to get back.

She was very satisfied with the speed.

The speed is so fast that it is almost imperceptible to the naked eye. Even if you walk right in front of them, they will think that they are seeing things for a moment.

Once ashore, Yun Jiao was surprised to find water dripping down her hair. She shook her head, and her hair dried.

"Wow."

This is acceptable.

Previously, every time I came out of the sea, the feeling of my hair sticking wet to my skin was not pleasant.

Except for the fact that her clothes were wet, her body dried quickly.

It's just that the wet clothes stick to the body, so you can't really tell.

Yun Jiao went closer to the water's edge to look at her reflection and noticed the strangeness in her eyes.

"It turned blue."

"No way, how am I going to explain this to my mother and the others?"

Yun Jiao frowned.

These eyes are beautiful, a deep and clear blue, like the most beautiful blue glass.

But this blue is just too eye-catching.

Besides, her eyes used to be black, so it's hard to explain why they've turned blue now.

Unable to think of a solution immediately, Yun Jiao had no choice but to return home.

She avoided people almost the entire way.

Her perception has become stronger than before.

"I'm back, Mother. Something happened to Mother."

Yun Jiao quickly called for help.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

People who heard her voice ran out of the house.

When they saw Yun Jiao's current appearance, everyone gasped.
