Volume One: The First Signs of Growth, Chapter One: The Strange Sea Turtle

On the beach under the scorching sun, the sand was burning hot, and the fish-scale-like seawater rippled and undulated, occasionally reflecting a ray of sunlight.

Thousands of people, young and old, were enjoying themselves on this beach. It was so hot that women and children in swimsuits were splashing around in the shallow water with various kinds of life rings, while the men swam further out.

Zhou Xuan lay lazily on the folding chair, half-closing his eyes. There were many eye-catching women, both top and bottom exposed, except for the two mounds of their breasts and the triangle area of their breasts. It was a feast for the eyes.

No matter how beautiful a woman is or how alluring her figure is, she still belongs to someone else.

Zhou Xuan is 26 years old this year. His hometown is Danjiangkou, Shiyan City, Hubei Province. After graduating from high school, he failed the college entrance examination by a few points. Since his family was not well-off, he simply went south and became one of the millions of migrant workers.

From the age of eighteen to twenty-six, after eight years of working, he only managed to earn enough to cover his living expenses, and he only managed to save a pitiful five thousand dollars in the bank. For him, life was quite a failure.

Naturally, the concept of a girlfriend was a distant dream for Zhou Xuan. While he couldn't compare to the likes of Pan An and Song Yu in terms of looks, he was still quite handsome. Coupled with his height of 1.78 meters, he could be considered a good-looking man. However, most girls these days only care about money, not looks, and Zhou Xuan, who was short of money, was even less likely to be interested.

Zhou Xuan's current job is as a lifeguard and substitute diving instructor. He got this job through a friend's introduction and has only been doing it for about three months. The main reason for this job is that Zhou Xuan has very good swimming and diving skills, especially his diving skills. For most people, being able to dive for a minute and a half is considered good, depending on the depth of the water.

People who don't understand might think that diving is the same regardless of the depth, but that's not the case. In shallow water, there is no pressure, so divers experience less pressure on their chest and can stay underwater longer. If the water depth exceeds a certain level, the pressure increases, and the pressure on the chest becomes stronger, making diving much more difficult. Therefore, being able to free dive for two minutes in water deeper than ten meters is basically considered to be among the world's best.

Deep-sea diving relies on lung capacity. For example, some singers have super strong lung capacity and can sing for three minutes in one breath, or even hold their breath for three minutes. But these are all on land, under no pressure, which is incomparable to deep-sea diving.

Zhou Xuan can dive in ten meters of water for three minutes, and his true strength is four minutes, but he doesn't want to be too sensational.

When Zhou Xuan was young, he learned some breathing techniques from an old Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain. However, it was not martial arts. After seven or eight years, he could walk on mountain roads and carry loads without getting out of breath or trembling. He also developed excellent diving skills by diving in mountain streams to catch fish.

Chongkou is a seaside resort with more than twenty lifeguards like Zhou Xuan. However, there are basically no accidents. Most of the tourists who go into the water can swim, and those who can't swim have life rings. They only have fun in the shallow water.

Zhou Xuan really wanted to become a certified diving instructor. First, he liked the job, and second, the salary would be several times higher than that of lifeguards. However, diving instructors need to have a qualification certificate, which is not easy to obtain and requires money. Zhou Xuan could not afford either of these. The only thing he had was his excellent swimming skills.

When it was time to hand over the shift, Zhou Xuan smiled as his replacement arrived. It was so hot that he had been thinking about going for a swim for a long time, but he was not allowed to leave his post during working hours. This time was different.

Zhou Xuan slowly walked into the water. The seawater gradually rose from his feet to his thighs, then to his abdomen and head, until he was completely submerged. The water comfortably relieved his sunburnt skin.

Zhou Xuan then plunged into the deeper water. There were several divers diving with tourists, one-on-one. However, the tourists didn't pay cheaply. The cost of diving equipment and instructors combined, for a single dive of just ten minutes, would cost several hundred yuan.

Zhou Xuan knew that apart from not having a diving certification, his diving skills and abilities were nowhere near those of the instructors.

After diving another ten meters or so, we reached a depth of about twenty meters in the sea. The diving instructors no longer brought tourists to this area, since tourists are not professionals and safety is the top priority.

Zhou Xuan swam among some beautiful small sea fish. There were some shallow corals on the seabed, but perhaps due to severe ecological damage in recent years, large corals were nowhere to be seen.

Zhou Xuan estimated that he had been underwater for about three minutes before surfacing to breathe. This place wasn't very close to the shallow beach, so most tourists wouldn't swim that far. A few good swimmers did swim further, but none of them noticed him.

Zhou Xuan took a deep breath and then dived into the deep water. In the shimmering water, he suddenly saw a turtle swoop past him.

Zhou Xuan waved his arm and floated over to take a closer look. This turtle was very strange. It had two pairs of forehead scales on its head and a hooked upper jaw. The horny plates on its back were arranged in an imbricate pattern, with a smooth surface and alternating brown and light yellow patterns. Its limbs were flipper-like, but the limbs and head were golden yellow, like the pure copper he had seen before.

The reason he mentioned copper is that Zhou Xuan had only ever seen copper. He had only ever seen gold in jewelry stores, but he had only ever seen it from a distance through glass and had never actually touched it.

This turtle looks like the two hawksbill turtles kept in the huge pool at the resort. They have similar patterns and designs, but the color of its limbs and head is different. I've never seen golden ones before. Moreover, this turtle is much bigger than the two in the pool. This one is at least a meter long.

The pool keeper said that hawksbill turtles usually only appear in deep water, and they have never been seen in the waters around this beach. Could this be the hawksbill turtle he was talking about?

Curious, Zhou Xuan followed closer. The sea turtle seemed to sense the danger and immediately crawled away to the left. Although turtles are slower than snails on land, they are not slow at all in the water. With their webbed feet flapping, they swam faster than Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan found it interesting and followed closely behind. The turtle swam to a small hole in a rock wall and disappeared inside in no time.

Zhou Xuan swam to the cave entrance and looked inside. The cave didn't seem very deep, only about a meter deep, and the length was about the same. The turtle's two beady eyes were staring at him.

Zhou Xuan found it amusing. This guy seemed to be hostile towards him. He saw the tortoise lying motionless on a yellow rock that was no bigger than his palm. There was a small round object next to the rock. The light was not good, so he couldn't see it very clearly. It looked like a small copper coin.

Zhou Xuan's heart stirred, and he thought he should take this thing back and take a look!

Thinking it over, Zhou Xuan reached his left hand into the hole to grab it. But as soon as the turtle saw Zhou Xuan reach out, it opened its mouth and bit down hard on his index finger. Zhou Xuan felt a sharp pain and tried to shake it off, but couldn't get it off. The turtle was holding on tightly. In his haste, he couldn't find a weapon and had nothing on him. He reached in with his right hand to feel around for something, and the first thing he touched was a small coin-like object. He had nowhere to put it, so he just put it in his mouth. Then he reached under the turtle and grabbed the rock, and smashed it against the turtle's body.

The turtle seemed to loosen its grip slightly, but it was still biting Zhou Xuan's finger. In his haste, Zhou Xuan, who had been underwater for quite some time, choked a little and felt a bit suffocated. He quickly hit the turtle a few more times with a rock, and the turtle finally let go.

Zhou Xuan quickly pulled back his left hand and swam upwards. Afraid that the turtle would chase after him, he didn't dare to throw any stones. He floated to the surface in one breath. His hand was in pain and his body was weak. Zhou Xuan didn't dare to stop and swam with all his might to the beach. When he stood up, he saw that his left index finger was covered in blood, and he could even see the white bone inside the flesh.

Surprised, Zhou Xuan quickly ran back to the dormitory building. The dormitory was a two-person room with two bunk beds. His other roommate was at work. His work hours were exactly opposite to Zhou Xuan's; when Zhou Xuan went to work, he went to work, and vice versa.

Zhou Xuan threw the stone on the floor, then spat out what was in his mouth and threw it on the ground as well. Without looking at it, he quickly found some gauze and wrapped it around his finger. The injury was quite serious. Even after it was wrapped, blood still seeped out of his finger, staining the white gauze crimson. However, it was much better after the gauze was wrapped, and the blood stopped flowing out after it seeped through the gauze.

Only then did Zhou Xuan have time to look at the things he had brought back. He picked up the coin-like object with his right hand and saw that it was indeed a coin, but it was not like a copper coin, because copper coins have a hole in the middle, while this coin was solid. However, the color was not very nice, probably because it had been soaking in water for too long.

Zhou Xuan went to the bathroom and found an unused toothbrush. He wet the coin and scrubbed it a few times, wiping away the blackish-green moss on the surface. Inside, it was golden yellow, just like the stone.

The coin has English letters on one side and the other side on the other. Zhou Xuan recognized the letters as "comewulf," but he could recognize the individual letters. However, he didn't know what they meant when they were put together.

On the other side was a bust of a blond foreigner. After looking at it for a long time, Zhou Xuan still couldn't recognize what kind of coin it was. It might have been dropped into the sea by a foreign tourist who came here.

Since he didn't know the person, Zhou Xuan casually stuffed the coins under his pillow, then picked up the stone with his right hand.

The stone was about the size of a palm, golden in color, much like the golden sand and pebbles in the mountain streams of my hometown. However, while sand and pebbles are uneven and rough, this stone was incredibly smooth, just like those pebbles that have been eroded by water for thousands of years.

Forget it, I almost lost my life on this trip. If it weren't for this stone, I really don't know what would have happened.

Zhou Xuan swam too hard and lost a lot of blood. He was exhausted and didn't even take off his shoes. He just lay down on the bed. His left hand hurt, and there was nowhere to put it. He was also afraid that the blood would stain the sheets, so he simply used the stone to prop up his left hand.

He drifted off to sleep in a daze, but at that moment, Zhou Xuan didn't see or know that when the blood on his left hand touched the golden stone, the stone suddenly emitted an even more dazzling golden light, and then it absorbed the blood on his fingers even faster, and the golden light became stronger and stronger.

Zhou Xuan was too tired. In his sleep, he felt a little pain in his fingers, but he still had some memories: his hand was injured, and it was normal for it to hurt. He should not get blood on the bed!

Zhou Xuan endured the pain in a half-dreaming, half-awake state. The stone seemed to have absorbed enough blood, and then the golden light pierced into the wound along his finger. The yellow light gradually weakened until the very last wisp disappeared. Finally, the yellow light vanished completely, and the stone returned to its original state, only the golden color had turned black.

Zhou Xuan felt no pain at all and comfortably drifted into a dream.
