Pokémon: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 13, Taking the tadpoles to the sea

It would be even better if there was another rain to cool down this damn sunny day.

But when Yuhai looked up, he saw an endless blue sky without a single white cloud, so forget about rain.

Raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, Yuhai poured out the impurities at the bottom of the cup, took another cup of water, put it on the fire to boil, and drank it later.

It’s not necessarily about how delicious the water is. The key is that the water is drinkable. This is the most important thing.

Next, Ukai put his hands on the back of his head, lying on the boulder with his head up, looking at the unchanging seascape on the seaside, waiting for the tide to recede.

If you can't catch anything by fishing, you can go out to sea when the tide goes out, pick up some shells, conches, kelp and other food, make a seafood dinner, and have a sip of kelp and shell soup.

Just thinking about the seafood soup after low tide made him drool. If it weren't for the scorching sun, he would have wanted to go to the sea.

There was no way, he was really hungry if he didn't eat even one meal, not to mention he didn't eat breakfast or lunch, just one meal a day.

He is not a professional desert island survival expert. If he cannot starve for nine meals in three days, he will die. Fortunately, he still has one meal to eat, otherwise he will really starve to death.

From the modern society of eating every meal, heading straight to a well-off life, to the current situation of sleeping in the open air, surviving on a deserted island with nothing to eat, this is something that normal people are not used to.

What's more, he almost died of hunger and thirst. This desert island could really kill him.

However, when he thought of the delicious seafood dinner in the evening, Yuhai fell into a deep sleep without realizing it until he was licked awake by a long pink tongue.

"Yo yo, yo yo," the tadpole couldn't wake up Ukai no matter how much it screamed before, so it stuck out its tongue and licked Ukai's cheek. It thought Ukai was sick.

"Don't eat me, don't eat me, don't don't," Yuhai opened his eyes and saw a long pink tongue. He thought he was caught by an elf and was going to be eaten, but he was suddenly frightened.

He hurriedly put his hands on the ground, sat up from the sand, kicked his legs wildly, and quickly took a few steps back. He was really frightened and thought he was going to be eaten.

It wasn't until he saw clearly that it was the mosquito tadpoles that were causing the demon, that he breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up from the sand and looked at the sunset on the horizon. The sun was about to set.

It was such a damn sunny day that he felt sleepy easily. He was so bored all day long that he was not allowed to have a good sleep. He even had a nightmare in which he dreamed that he was swallowed by Kyogre.

There is also the sound of waves on the shore. I was so exhausted that I didn't notice it before. After the food and fresh water have improved in the past two days, the sound of waves washing against the rocks is very annoying.

As an inland landlubber, he really couldn't get used to this kind of buzzing sound, which affected his sleep quality too much.

Moreover, he didn't dare to sleep too much. This was an uninhabited desert island. If he slept too much and was picked up by a bear, he wouldn't have anywhere to cry.

After he woke up a little, he also heard his stomach growling, "Gulu, Gulu..."

"Gulu, Gulu..."

Not only did his stomach growl, but the mosquito-repellent tadpole's stomach also growled. After hearing two stomach growls, he and the mosquito-repellent tadpole looked at each other, and then burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, are the mosquito-repellent tadpoles starving? Let's go to the sea and have a full meal tonight," Yuhai walked in front, calling for the mosquito-repellent tadpoles to follow.

The tide is low at this time, which is a good time to catch the sea. Many reefs are exposed and turned into shoals, covered with conches and shells...

These little things are just ordinary animals, not elves. In order to pick up these little things, he brought a plastic bucket and picked up as many as he could, especially kelp. He wanted to eat enough tonight.

"Yo yo? Yo yo," the tadpole saw how happy Ukai was. It tilted its head at first, not really understanding, but it still followed Ukai's footsteps.

When the mosquito-repellent tadpole saw Ukai picking up the shells adsorbed on the reef with his bare hands, it understood.

I just don’t know what Ukai wants these things for. These things are hard and inedible.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so hungry before, looking for the scent of the bait, and found Ukai to beg for food.

Obviously, the small brain capacity of a mosquito-repellent tadpole cannot figure out such a thing.

Unable to figure it out, the mosquito-repellent tadpole simply stopped thinking about it. Now that he knew that Ukai wanted this thing, the mosquito-repellent tadpole was not idle. He turned around and looked around, and saw a shell adsorbed on a reef, and was ready to help Ukai pick the shell.

But as soon as it opened its pink mouth and bit a piece of shell, it was picked up by Ukai.

"Stop, these rocks and shells are very sharp, and you will be scratched if you are not careful. I will pick up the shells, and you pick up the kelp," Yuhai picked up the mosquito-repellent tadpole and explained to the mosquito-repellent tadpole.

After putting down the tadpole, he also took away the shell from the tadpole's mouth, picked up a piece of kelp on the beach, placed it near the tadpole's mouth, and explained to the tadpole: "This is kelp, you pick this up..."

Then he put the kelp into the plastic bucket. After going back and forth a few times, he felt that this little tadpole, which kept blinking its big black and bright eyes, should understand, right?

He wasn't quite sure whether this guy understood it or not.

"Do you understand? I pick up shells and you pick up kelp," Yuhai asked the mosquito-repellent tadpole again after giving him a demonstration.

"Yo yo, yo yo," the mosquito-repellent tadpole nodded, indicating that he understood.

But Ukai is still a little unsure. Whether this little tadpole understands or not is a mystery.

Under his gaze, the tadpole leaned down and bit a piece of kelp with its small mouth, and put it into a plastic bucket.

After completing the action of picking up kelp, the mosquito-repellent tadpole raised its big black eyes and looked at Yuhai. Seeing that Yuhai didn't say anything, this meant that it did the right thing.

Seeing that the mosquito-repellent tadpole really understood, Yuhai no longer paid attention to the mosquito-repellent tadpole, but picked up the fleshy shell.

But what he didn't notice was that when the mosquito-repellent tadpole put down the second piece of kelp, he smacked his pink lips a few times. The mosquito-repellent tadpole felt that it was edible.

Immediately, the mosquito-repellent tadpole once again bit a piece of kelp in its mouth, and then chewed it carefully, and found that the kelp was quite delicious.

Why hadn't it discovered before that kelp could be eaten?

At this time, the mosquito-repellent tadpoles seemed to have discovered a new continent. There was a lot of food right in front of them. On the reef shoals exposed after the tide receded, there were green kelp everywhere, which they couldn't finish eating.

Thinking of the mosquito-repellent tadpole, I couldn't help but think of my previous experience of almost starving to death. I tilted my head and looked at the kelp everywhere with confusion. How could it be so hungry before? It's really an unsolved mystery.

"Yo yo, yo yo," the mosquito-repellent tadpole shook his head, too lazy to think so much. He just wanted to eat now and make up for all the food he had missed before.

Afterwards, the mosquito-repellent tadpole forgot Yuhai's instructions and ate wherever he went. He always had a piece of kelp in his mouth, his cheeks bulged, and he kept chewing the kelp.

Yu Hai, who accidentally saw this scene, couldn't help but smile. He finally understood why this little tadpole was so hungry.

It seems that this mosquito tadpole broke away from the group shortly after hatching, before it had time to learn how to distinguish food.

Without the guidance of parents, the simplest way to distinguish food is to bite everything you see in front of you, spit it out if it doesn't taste good, and swallow it if it tastes good.

Obviously, this little tadpole walked all the way here and did not encounter any delicious food before being attracted by the bait, otherwise it would not be so hungry.
