C12 Small Fishing Village 

"What a big clam! Brother Aya, is this clam alive? Can I touch it? "

In the simple and lively fishing village, a few half-grown children were gathered in front of a giant clam, their mouths letting out waves of surprise and gasps.

"Brother Aya, where did you get this clam? It looks really pretty, much more beautiful than the shells that Ah Ning picked by the sea."

"How many years has it taken for this clam to grow up to be so big? Do you think there's a pearl inside?"

"Pearls? Are they the beautiful pearls that Anin used to see on the heads of the beautiful mermaids when he followed you into the city? " The five-year-old boy crossed his arms in front of his chest with a look of longing on his face.

The beautiful mermaids were all dressed up beautifully, and Anin also wanted to wear big shining pearls and diamond jewelry...

"If there really is a pearl, how many pearls do you think there would be for such a big clam? Brother Aya, let's pry it open and take a look."

"Good, good, good. There are pearls ..."

Looking at the children's eyes that were filled with anticipation as they looked at him, Aya was suddenly in a dilemma.

Perhaps the nobles in the city would be willing to collect such a large clam?

"Brother Aya, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" Perhaps it was because the young man didn't say anything, but the children raised their heads and looked at him timidly.

"Brother Aya ..."

"About this, I ...This clam ..."

"Alright, children. Aya still has things to do, so don't stand around anymore. Go and play with yourselves." A young man holding onto a fishing net that was hanging up on the beach noticed the situation and walked over.

"But ..." The children bit their fingers from time to time, disappointment appearing on their faces. They really wanted to see if there were any large pearls inside.

"Uncle A Xia ..."

"Disperse, your Uncle Ali is currently discussing with the patriarch to see if he can find a few people to send this ocean clam to the city tomorrow and see if he can get a better price for it." With such a big and beautiful clam, if one was lucky, there might be a nobleman willing to buy it at a high price.

"If that's the case, then Aya and the othersdidn't go out to sea for nothing."

Today, when Aya came back with his Abba, the people in his village were all surprised tosee a clam in the sea. Although their little fishing village was not very developed due to its remote location and had always relied on the sea for a living, to be honest, they had never seen a clam as big as this after all these years of catching fish.

This, must be thousands of years. It was no wonder that everyone came over to watch in surprise.

3000 years ago, in the last year of the Human Age, the world suddenly erupted in amassive flood. Sea level rose, polar glaciers melted, and nearly three quarters of the Earth's land turned into a vast ocean. Aside from the fact that the high land had slowly evolved into the four great domains of north, south, east, and west, the coastal areas had long since become underwater ruins.

This little fishing village of theirs could be considered to be the small village closest to the sea.

"Uncle A Xia, Uncle Li and the others, are you going to the city tomorrow? Ah Ning, you can go too? I heard that the city has been bustling recently and is holding God of the Sea's Sacrifice right now. "

Because God of the Sea was near the sea, he held a high position in the hearts of the people here and could not be desecrated.

'Sacrifice? Uncle A Xia, does this mean that we can see the beautiful Mermaids one day?"
