Chapter 308 Barnacles
After she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed something on its shell. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that it was a barnacle.

After observing the turtle shell for a while, she turned the giant turtle over and made it face up in the air, amid everyone's puzzled gazes.

Everyone: "..."

Giant sea turtle: “…”

[Is it polite to do this when you first meet someone? 】

Sure enough, Song Chuman also saw a large area of ​​barnacles on the turtle shell below.

Song Chuhuai asked: "Sister, what are you looking for?"

Song Chuman straightened the giant sea turtle and took out a dagger from her bag. "I'm looking at the barnacles on the giant sea turtle. Look, it's the round thing with white and black, it's the barnacle."

The giant sea turtle thought to itself: Oh, so she wanted to clean the barnacles from it. It didn't blame her for being so presumptuous.

Song Chuhuai: "What are barnacles?"

As Song Chuman cleaned the barnacles, she explained, "Barnacles can be considered a type of seafood, but they are a type of marine parasite that many seafood species hate. They must attach themselves to the bottom of the boat or to slow-swimming seafood, such as turtles and fish."

"Once you get barnacles on it, it's like the back of this giant sea turtle, covered in barnacles."

"Gradually, barnacles will grow all over its body, making it very uncomfortable, itchy and painful."

"Barnacles have a very strong adhesion. Even for us humans, we have to use tools to remove them. They are generally unable to get rid of the barnacles themselves and can only let the barnacles grow more and more on their bodies."

"In serious cases, it may even endanger their lives."

In her previous life, she had seen that some small turtles, only the size of a palm, were covered with barnacles.

The barnacles growing on the turtle's body make it move slowly, as if a mountain is pressing on it, and it looks very pitiful.

Everyone's expressions suddenly became extremely serious.

There are actually such vicious seafood?
Yang Qingrui often cleans the boat, and he also said: "So this is a barnacle. I have seen it under the boat before, but I thought it was just ordinary seafood. I didn't expect it to be so disgusting."

Song Chuman said: "Although barnacles are hateful, they are actually a medicinal material. Both the meat and the shell can be used as medicine." "The shell has the effect of reducing acid and relieving pain, and the meat has the effect of detoxifying and curing sores. It is mainly used to treat stomachache, excessive stomach acid, burns from water or fire, children's head furuncle, furuncle swelling and poison, etc."

"I read in a book that people in some places regard barnacles as treasures. Their meat is tender, sweet and delicious."

Song Chuhuai said angrily: "It's so bad, will we become bad too if we eat it?"

Song Chuman shook her head amusedly: "No."

As she spoke, she continued to clean the barnacles off the turtle.

Ever since his family's conditions improved, Song Chuhuai has always carried a knife with him for self-defense.

Seeing that there were quite a few barnacles on the giant sea turtle, he took out the knife he carried with him and went over to help clean the barnacles.

Others also went over to help.

With so many people around, the work was done quickly, and soon all the barnacles on the giant turtle's body were cleaned off.

Song Chuman cleaned the turtle shell with sea water again and said seriously: "Giant sea turtle, you stay on the boat first and come back to my home with me later."

The giant turtle nodded.

【OK.】

Anyway, it's a turtle and a mascot, no one will hurt it.

Song Chuman felt relieved.

Since some time had already been wasted, she ordered her men to close the net right away.

A moment later, Zeng Xiaonan was very excited when he saw the two nets full of seafood on the boat.
