Chapter 968 - 967, Surprise
Xiu Yan hummed a response, "It’s not poisonous."
Ji Nuan turned her gaze toward the red crystals near the seawater, "These crystals seem to be found only in the Red Sea, I haven’t seen them in the Blue Sea."
Xiu Yan stepped forward, broke off a piece, and sniffed it close to his nose, "It has a salty, fishy smell, probably the crystallization of the Red Sea water, which is very similar to the water’s scent."
Ji Nuan’s eyes lit up, and Xiu Yan’s words made her think of something.
However, without having tasted these red crystals, she couldn’t be sure.
"Give me some, I’ll try what it tastes like?"
Xiu Yan moved his finger, breaking off a nail-sized red crystal and handed it to Ji Nuan, "Just lick it."
Ji Nuan nodded, took it over and observed, the red crystal was very clean, without any impurities, and exceedingly beautiful.
She stuck out her tongue and tasted it; an intense salty flavor instantly filled her mouth.
Ji Nuan’s eyes sparkled, and she looked at Xiu Yan with surprise, "You should try the taste of this crystal."
Seeing her excited, flushed face, Xiu Yan thought of a bold guess about the place where these red crystals appeared.
But he didn’t say it out loud, he just did as Ji Nuan suggested and tasted the red crystal.
The moment his tongue touched it, a rich salty flavor filled his mouth, this saltiness was extremely similar to the salt fruit they had eaten before, only it had a faint taste of seawater.
It was much better than the salt they had crystallized from seawater, which always had a slight bitter taste when done by the Blue Sea.
Ji Nuan had tried many times, but strangely, no matter how many times they filtered it, that faint bitterness persisted.
Unexpectedly, they had now stumbled upon such a big surprise.
Gui Zhuangzhuang had said that the Red Sea was much bigger than the Blue Sea.
That meant, as long as the Red Sea existed, the Watson Tribe wouldn’t have to worry about salt anymore.
Even the cold Xiu Yan couldn’t help but show a hint of excitement on his face right now, "It’s actually salt."
Ji Nuan thought of something and looked at Xiu Yan beside her, "Brother Xiu Yan, let’s catch some game."
Ji Nuan’s words meant a lot to Xiu Yan.
He immediately scooped Ji Nuan into his arms and with his long legs, ran into the forest, "A big one or a small one?"
Ji Nuan thought a bit, "A big one."
Xiu Yan nodded and ran straight in one direction.
Before long, they were already carrying a Sabretooth Bear back to the Red Sea.
With a swing of Xiu Yan’s long arm, the Sabretooth Bear was thrown into the fiery red seawater.
But then, a miraculous scene unfolded, the huge Sabretooth Bear didn’t sink; it just floated on the surface of the Red Sea, showing the high salt content of the sea.
While Ji Nuan was pleased, several fierce-looking deep red Sea Beasts suddenly leaped out of the red water.
The teeth of these Sea Beasts were exposed, dense and serrated like saw blades, looking extraordinarily fierce and intimidating.
They pounced on the Sabretooth Bear that floated on the surface, their sharp teeth functioning like large meat grinders.
In no time, there was nothing left on the surface of the sea, even the remnants had been divided up by smaller Sea Beasts.
