"Well, what can I do?" Feng Qiyue asked with interest.

She is indeed a bit bored, and there is no way to refine elixirs or weapons at the bottom of the sea. She is almost going to grow hair after being idle all day, okay?

"Peel the pearls for me," the little mermaid said with a smile.

"Isn't peeling pearls a specialty of the mussel tribe? They can be taken out by themselves. Do you need to peel them manually?" Feng Qiyue asked puzzledly.

"Some old clams cannot produce eggs and need artificial help. Otherwise, if time goes by, the pearls will make them feel uncomfortable." The Little Mermaid said matter-of-factly.

"Oh" Feng Qiyue nodded. She didn't know much about this, but she felt that the Little Mermaid would not lie to her, so she agreed.

By the time Feng Qiyue returned to her residence, the old clams had already received orders from the Mermaid King and were lining up in the courtyard to wait for Feng Qiyue.

Those old clams, each one as big as a millstone, were piled up in the entire courtyard. Outside the courtyard, a long queue stretched all the way to the gate of the Crystal Palace.

"Boss, these old clams said they are here to find you. Are they our new dish? Are they too old? The old clams will be a little hard and difficult to chew when they are ready." Zhong Tao looked at Feng Qiyue and asked

said hurriedly.

Feng Qiyue "" foodie

When the old clams heard Zhong Tao's words, they were all trembling with fear.

They just came to these humans to help peel out the pearls, but this human wanted to eat them

"We are not vegetables," said an old clam, with black lines all over his face, slightly moving his shell.

If it hadn't been counting on these people to help it, it would definitely have made this human cry for father and mother between two clam shells.

snort

Don't think that they are easy to bully when they are old. Old clams can bite people when they are anxious.

"Then what are you doing here?" Zhong Tao couldn't help but ask after hearing what Lao Ben said.

"They came to me to help peel pearls." Feng Qiyue explained.

"Pearls also need to be peeled off," Zhong Tao said in disbelief.

"We are old and cannot give birth naturally, so we can only find outside help." The leader, Lao Beng, then added.

"Oh, that's it, then let me help you," Zhong Tao said with a playful smile.

"Who wants you to help perverts? Don't even think about taking advantage of us." An old clam said angrily. It still remembered the time when humans treated them as food.

Zhong Tao ""He is a pervert

peat

Even if he was in love, he wouldn't take advantage of an old clam, right?

Then, Zhong Tao was angry and left.

Feng Qiyue was so angry and funny that she asked an old clam to open its shell. When I looked at it, I saw that the flesh in the shell was densely covered with pearls. They were all tightly wrapped by the clam flesh and were uneven.

It looks quite scary.

Each of those pearls is big and round, and the largest one is almost as big as a baby's fist.

"What should I do so that I won't hurt you?" Feng Qiyue asked the old clam while looking at the pearls.

"Do whatever you want, it won't hurt. I don't feel comfortable if these pearls stay inside." The old clam said very excitedly.

"Okay, then I'll try to be as gentle as possible. If it hurts you, just tell me," Feng Qiyue said softly.

The old man nodded, his whole body filled with anticipation.

Feng Qiyue took out a small dagger, gently cut open the old clam's flesh, and picked out the pearls one by one.
