1346. Eight Consciousness (1/5)
ps: If nothing unexpected happens tomorrow, tenth update will explode.
When layers of yellowed newspapers were opened, a piece of gray spherical ambergris appeared in front of Qin Shiou.
Qin Shiou swallowed his saliva and wished he could immediately pick up the ambergris ball to absorb the energy inside.
But he certainly couldn't do this with the veteran and Auerbach. The veteran reached out and stroked the ambergris and sighed: "Oh, I have collected this thing for sixty or seventy years, and finally it's worth my collection."
Qin Shiou held back the swallowing ** and said, "Grandpa Chen, did my grandfather eat this thing back then? How could this thing be eaten, right?"
The veteran smiled and said, "Yes, we asked Brother Qin too. Brother Qin said he had a strange disease. Later, I thought, it might be what the doctor said about pica or something, right?"
Qin Shiou nodded and said, "It should be right. I have a buddy who likes to eat orange peels, and it is also dried orange peels. I just knew that it was a bit strange to me."
It's nonsense to believe in the horse, he can't say that this strange substance contains powerful sea god energy, which can promote the evolution of the sea god's heart, right?
After the veteran asked the two to see it, they wrapped the ambergris again, locked it in a box and handed it to Qin Shiou, saying, "I have always wanted to give it to Brother Qin. Oh, good luck makes people so you can take it back. When you go to the grave in the future, it will be considered as a wish."
Qin Shiou solemnly took the box, and the veteran took out a thick album and started to read it. For the old man, memories may be their favorite thing to do. The veteran looked at the album and became silent.
Qin Shiou and Auerbach went to the corner of the door and discussed: "Dad Ao, I think Grandpa Chen's financial situation is not very good. How can I help him? Is it useless to leave some money for him?"
Auerbach pondered for a moment and said, "It's not enough to just leave money. In this way, I remember that there is a good veteran daycare center in Vancouver. Please ask the old man for advice and send him there?"
There are no nursing homes in Canada, and there are two types of day care centers, adult day care social centers and medical day care centers, which are similar in nature to nursing homes. The division of labor is clearer. The former focuses on social mobility and is suitable for the elderly who are lonely and widowed, while the latter focuses on medical care and is suitable for sick elderly people.
This kind of day care helps the elderly who need to improve their social skills, such as veterans. It can provide a variety of activities and opportunities to interact with them.
In addition, the classification of day care facilities in Canada is quite detailed. Unlike ordinary nursing homes, the elderly are sent in and they do not pay attention to the preferences and needs of the elderly. This type of day care facility is classified, such as veteran day care facilities. Most of them are veterans, and everyone has more topics together and can understand each other better.
But now the most important day care facilities for Alzheimer's disease are the most important. Canada is one of the countries with the highest incidence of Alzheimer's disease in the world, with 500,000 patients in the 30 million population!
Moreover, according to forecasts, Canada's Alzheimer's case will more than double in the next twenty years, from the current 480,000 to 1.1 million. Therefore, the Canadian government attaches great importance to the maintenance of such patients. In the next twenty years, the demand for long-term care services caused by the disease will increase by 10 times. The cumulative economic burden to society will reach 872 billion Canadian dollars!
This kind of thing happened and Qin Shiou had to take care of the veteran's self-esteem. Perhaps they didn't want to go to a day care center, but he felt that domestic veterans should not want to go to a nursing home.
Leaving the matter to Auerbach, Qin Shiou ran back to the hotel alone by himself. He couldn't help it. Thinking about the person who had been hungry for five and a half days and saw a roast chicken...
He held the box and directly found a hotel to book a room next to him. The waiter arranged a room for him while looking at him with strange eyes.
Qin Shiou was restless and stretched out his hand to knock on the box, but he was still unconscious.
The waiter handed him the access card, then smiled ambiguously and said, "Do you come here to travel? Do you need special services? There are very beautiful girls in our hotel."
"You need your sister!" Qin Shiou cursed, picked up the box and went upstairs.
The waiter analyzed his words, picked up the phone decisively and said, "1055, a man, find a younger girl to deliver it to him."
Qin Shiou didn't know that he was misunderstood when he was impatient. He went back to the room and went straight to the bathroom, put water in the bathtub and put the ambergris down.
The ambergris was not covered with water, so he could not absorb energy. In this way, he was very anxious and suddenly remembered the words of the veteran. His second grandfather always ate this kind of thing directly, perhaps this kind of energy utilization rate is higher?
With this idea, Qin Shiou broke a cup, pinched the glass slice and scraped some powder, then put it in his mouth, closed his eyes and savored it carefully.
Well, this taste - it's so fucking bad! It's like stone powder, and the taste is very astringent. He swallowed some of it in difficulty, but he didn't feel the throbbing of the heart of the sea god.
Obviously, this way of absorbing the energy of the sea god was useless to him. Qin Shiou gave up and waited for the water in the bathtub to flood the ambergris. He covered it with his hands and closed his eyes to experience the pleasure of being floating and ecstatic.
As a result, the knock on the door suddenly rang.
Qin Shiou cursed inwardly, and he looked out with his cat's eyes. A blonde with heavy makeup was glaring at him outside.
He opened the door in surprise and asked, "Who are you? What's the matter?"
The beauty reached out to touch his chest and said with a charming look: "Sir, didn't you say you needed a girl?"
Let me go to your sister! Qin Shiou said, "I found the wrong person" and closed the door directly. This time he plugged into the socket, hurried into the bathroom, covered his hands with ambergris, and began to absorb the energy of the sea god.
The familiar pleasure enveloped his whole body, as if every cell had exploded, and an indescribable pleasure dominated every cell and every nerve of his, making him feel that he was the most enjoyable person in the world at this time.
It is not the most important thing to experience this feeling of pleasure. Qin Shiou wanted to know what improvements has been made this time. After all, the ambergris he absorbed this time is big enough.
When the four sea god consciousnesses were released, Qin Shiou first noticed the change in quantity, not only the four sea god consciousnesses. Now he has eight sea god consciousnesses, and his control range has increased greatly. The eight sea god consciousnesses are unfolding at the same time, and can control a range of hundreds of cubic kilometers at one time!
Apart from this, there seemed to be no other changes. Qin Shiou felt that he had a sharper feeling about intelligent creatures in the sea and had clearer orders he could give, but there seemed to be nothing else.
Qin Shiou felt that this should not be the case. Such a large piece of ambergris should strengthen him even more. (To be continued)
