I May Be a Dummy - Chapter 59
After finally getting used to the violent sunlight, Jia Li half-squinted her eyes to look at the surrounding environment. Unexpectedly, the entrances and exits of the great ditch in this sea area are on the sea, with blue sea and blue sky, and dozens of islands surfaced in a circle.
Several blue-tailed mermaids swam up and interrogated, “Where did you come from?”
Ai Rui replied: “Yat Sea.”
The blue-tailed mermaid looked at each other. I haven’t heard of it. It is probably the remote sea area.
“What are you doing here and how long will you stay?”
Ire squeezed his fist, raised his lips and smiled, “What do you ask so much for?”
The blue-tailed mermaid felt the deterrence from Ai Rui, and they were a little frightened, “Don’t be angry, we are just following the king’s order to inquire about the mermaid coming from the big ditch.”
“Your king?”
Come on, it’s another sea area where a kingdom can be established.
“Yes, we are the king.”
Irei patted him on the shoulder and calmly said: “Don’t be too nervous, we are just passing by, take a rest in your waters, and leave tomorrow.”
“Yes.” The blue-tailed mermaid pointed to the sea in front of him, and said, “You can only rest near the island, and you can’t leave too far, otherwise the patrol team will find out that you will be driven out of the sea.”
Han Zhan slowly let go of the hand covering Dong Cub’s eyes, and he nodded at the blue-tailed mermaid, “We know.”
The blue-tailed mermaid discovered that there was a little mermaid among them. The little mermaid bit her little hand aggrievedly, obviously hungry. I don’t know why, they felt soft and couldn’t help but say a few more words, “You can hunt near the island, but don’t let the patrol team find out. .”
It was the first time Han Zhan and the others heard that there was this way as a trade-off, and they felt a little fresh for a while.
After a few words of exhortation, the blue-tailed mermaid saw that they were indeed tired, so he didn’t say more, and asked them to go to the island to rest.
Han Zhan and the others swam close to the island, only to realize that it was not an ordinary island, it was an island in the island.
A dozen islands outside surrounded the city and surrounded a hollow island inside. A little far away, seeing them don’t know what’s on the middle island, they can probably see people on the island.
The outer circle of islands is not a complete island. The islands that surfaced are a bit fragmented, and the smallest island is only the size of a small stone house.
Han Zhan handed the winter cub to Jiali, “You find a place to rest first, I’ll go catch the fish.”
There were other mermaids on the island, and when they found them coming, they looked at them coldly, and turned their heads indifferently.
They didn’t plan to stay in this sea for long, nor did they want to deal with the mermaids on the island.
Jiali found a small island with no mermaid on it. The island was full of large rocks. Several plants grew from the rocks, making the island less bald.
Jiali put the winter cub on the rock, “Are the cubs sleepy, sleep for a while.”
Dongzai nodded and shook his head. He looked at the direction of Hanzhan’s departure, and said softly, “Wait for my brother to come back.”
Iri turned around and asked Kyle, “What was the last time you came here?”
Kyle stammered: “At that time, we were rushing into the Great Ditch, and we didn’t look at it carefully. I remember it was a bit messy here. A kingdom has not been established, and there is no patrol team.”
So this area of the sea was just not long after the kingdom was established, so it shouldn’t be feared.
Over there, Han Zhan avoided the patrol team and dived into the shallow waters.
The nearby seafood is very rich. Han Zhan used a fishing net and brought back dozens of fish. Han Zhan turned over. There were two or three fin fish in the fishing net. It can be said to be a surprise.
The wind on the island was very cool, the wreath on Dong Zai’s head was a bit crooked, her black hair was gently blown by the breeze, and the tips of her forehead were blown by the wind, revealing bright and colorful patterns. Dong Zai shook his small tail fin, “Brother is back!”
Before the words fell, I saw a huge fish tail dangling under the water, and then Han Zhan emerged from the water.
Han Zhan divided the fish out, leaving all the fin fish to the winter cubs.
Kyle only got a slap-sized fish, which was not enough to stuff his teeth. He was very self-aware and silently picked up the fish, reluctant to eat it in one bite.
After finally eating fresh fish, Kyle burst into tears. When there was not enough food in the last few days, they all managed to survive by eating the seaweed that grew from the cracks.
Ai Rui grabbed a lively fish, pinched its head off, and swallowed it into his stomach.
Han Zhan was not in a hurry to eat, so he processed the finfish first and stuffed it into the winter cub’s arms.
It was late after eating and drinking. They slumped on the rock, touching their bulging belly, and the cool breeze made people drowsy.
Dong Zai bit the fin fish meat, halfway through eating, Dong Zai pushed the meat to Han Zhan, “Brother, hurry up, there is a fish here.”
Han Zhan threw the fish into his mouth without saying a word, and finished in two bites.
There were two finfish left, Jia Li picked it up, stunned cleanly, and stuffed it into a crack in the rock.
After doing this, the patrol team just appeared in their sight.
They stopped at a distance, stared at Kyle for a while, seeming to be sure, and then they wandered away.
Han Zhan’s eyes sank, “How many mermaids know about Poseidon’s divine power?”
“It’s just us.” Kyle’s eyes were erratic, and he dared not look directly into Han Zhan’s eyes.
Jiali suddenly became angry, he flicked the fish’s tail and patted Kyle’s face fiercely, “How many mermaids know!”
Kyle was caught off guard and was thrown a few big mouths. A handsome face immediately swelled. He hid his face and hid, “I remember, and the Osleyka mermaid knows.”
Oops, Iri’s expression is serious, “The Osleyka mermaid might have spread the story of the Seagod’s power.”
He made a decisive decision, “We will leave here immediately.”
Han Zhan raised his eyes, “It’s too late.”
At the same time, Dong Cub exclaimed, “A lot of fish.”
At this moment, dozens of mermaid suddenly appeared in the sea, directly surrounding their islands. Among them is a purple-tailed mermaid with patterns on the corners of the eyes like petals. The bridge of the nose is tall and the eyes are deep purple. The features are deep, which is not the same as the mermaid in the Yate waters.
Dong Zai stared at him curiously.
Han Zhan lowered his eyes, “What are you looking at?”
Dong Zai blinked, “Brother, how come he looks different from us.”
The purple-tailed mermaid swam up, and when he heard this, his expression was subtle, and then his gaze swept across Han Zhan and their faces, and finally fell on Kyle.
He said coldly: “You are Kyle? Our king invites you over.”
Kyle turned his head and put on a strange expression, “You are calling me, you have admitted wrong, I am not Kyle.”
The purple-tailed mermaid couldn’t help but press down on Kyle’s shoulder to drag him away.
“Wait.” Iri pulled the blue-tailed mermaid by the wrist. “He is our companion. If you want to take him away, you should have asked us what we meant.”
The purple-tailed mermaid stepped back and raised his hand to catch, Ai Rui drew sideways, the fish’s tail flicked, and the purple-tailed mermaid retreated. However, after a few fights, the purple-tailed mermaid could see that their strengths were equal.
“You can come with him.” The purple-tailed mermaid continued, “We didn’t mean to hurt him, we just have a few questions to ask him.”
Han Zhan nodded, “It just so happens that we also want to visit the middle island.”
Regarding the fight, Jiali hadn’t been afraid of anyone yet, so he yawned, “Do you have a place to sleep?”
“some.”
In front of him, Jiali picked up two finfish from a crack in the rock. This was food for his cubs and couldn’t be wasted.
The purple-tailed mermaid paused, but finally didn’t say anything.
“Let’s go.”
They followed the purple-tailed mermaid into the middle island, and there were mermaid patrols along the way. If the purple-tailed mermaid did not lead the way, they would surely be spotted if they wanted to sneak in.
Before swimming to the island, they saw two heavy stone gates in front of them. The purple-tailed mermaid picked up the conch wrapped around his waist and blew it twice in his mouth.
In less than a moment, the door slowly opened from the inside.
The shark respectfully shouted: “My lord.”
The purple-tailed mermaid asked: “Where is the king?”
“Wang Gang fell asleep.”
The purple-tailed mermaid said to Han Zhan: “The king is asleep. I will take you to see him tomorrow. Now I will take you to a place to rest.”
On the way, the purple-tailed mermaid introduced himself and said: “My name is Tesia.”
The island is a hollow island. The water in the island is very shallow. Stone houses are built on the water. The layout of the stone houses is scattered, forming a magnificent water city.
Tesia took them to a larger stone house, “You live here, if you have anything you can call them.”
After speaking, Tesia left a few mermaid guards outside the house, and then left.
The stone house was half immersed in the water, and the mermaid didn’t need to turn the fish’s tail into legs. Ai Rui swam in first and checked it. There was no problem inside.
Jiali leaned against the window and looked at the small stone houses on the opposite side. Through the moonlight, she vaguely saw people and fishes living in the stone houses.
Kyle slumped on the ground, before catching his breath, Erie grabbed his hair and lifted it up, “You really don’t know the king here?”
Kyle said, “I don’t know him, I don’t even know what his name is.”
Iri let go of Kyle, “If he asks you tomorrow, you figure out how to answer it, if you say something wrong…” Then, Iri touched her sharp nails.
When Kelton shivered, he touched his neck and said, “I won’t talk nonsense.”
This will be Dong Zai nestled in Han Zhan’s arms, little head little by little, obviously sleepy.
There was no bed in the stone house, so Han Zhan hugged Dong Zai in his arms. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
There are people watching outside, so don’t worry about Kyle running away.
I didn’t sleep for many days, even Ai Rui couldn’t hold it, and soon fell asleep.
When the sky was getting light, they heard a sound of “Woo-” blowing conch.
Han Zhan woke up first, he covered Dong Zai’s ears with both hands, and then raised his eyes to look out the window.
When the mermaids heard the sound of conch, they woke up at the same time and swam to the gate to gather.
Jiali asked the mermaid outside, “What are you doing when you get up so early?”
The mermaid said sternly, “It’s nothing.”
Jia Li shot suddenly, moving as fast as lightning, and caught the blue-tailed mermaid’s neck. Ai Rui and Han Zhan also clamped down on them before the other mermaid could not respond.
“You can tell us now.”
The blue-tailed mermaid bit his lip, but refused to speak.
“Let go of them!” Tesia wanted to come and take them to see the king, but when he ran into this scene, he fished his tail and swam in front of them, his face sinking slightly.
Jiali let go, and he said innocently: “I have no other meaning, just want to ask you what you are doing so early.”
He glanced at Kyle with a smile. He looked at his mouth, as strict as a clam shell, and couldn’t pry it open.
Tesia’s eyes were a little sullen, “Our king is up, you come with me.”
After swimming a few meters, he noticed something was wrong. He looked back and found that none of them had followed. “What do you mean?”
Jiali leaned against the wall lazily, “I’m hungry and can’t walk.”
Tesia’s forehead jumped, and he turned his head and ordered his men, “Prepare food for them.”
“Wait.” Jia Li stopped him.
Tesia’s expression was not good, and the expression in her eyes read: What do you want to do!
“My cubs are relatively tender, he can’t bite other fish, so he can only eat finned fish, so please catch a few finned fish.”
Dong Zai blinked his eyes and smiled innocently.
It’s impossible for Tesia to get angry with the little mermaid. What’s more, the little mermaid in front of him is indeed weak. He took a deep breath and raised his hand, “Do as he said.”
Finfish are not rare in their waters, and soon the blue-tailed mermaid caught a dozen finfish.
When the winter cubs finished eating the two finfish, the sun had risen to the roof.
Before Tesia’s patience was exhausted, Dong Cub finally finished his last bite of meat. He grabbed the fish bone and said, “Daddy.” Jia Li threw the fish bone into his mouth and chewed it up a few times.
Iri stretched her waist, “Let you wait a long time, take us to see your king.”
“Come with me!” Tesia left a word and wandered away.
Jiali picked up the winter cub, and Han Zhan followed Tesia.
They swam into the island, entered a gate, and saw a palace. The walls of the palace were made of shells and decorated with pearls. The whole palace reflected dazzling light in the sun.
“Wow~” Dong Zai opened his small mouth, “So pretty.”
Dong Zai has liked shining things since he was a child, and he really liked such a shining palace.
Jiali raised her eyebrows, “Zizai like it? Then we will build another one when we go back.”
“You are waiting here, I will report to the king.”
Tesia swam into the palace and shouted to the figure behind the curtain: “King, they are here.”
The curtain in the palace is made of shark silk, and dozens of layers of shark silk are stacked. From the outside, you can only vaguely see a stone bed inside. After a while, there was a weak voice from the young man, and he lifted a corner of the curtain, revealing a pale almost transparent hand, “Tesia? Why did you come here so late?”
“I’m sorry, the king.” Tesia went up and took the thin hand of the young man, “I’m late, they are outside, do you want to see them.”
The boy covered his mouth and coughed twice, “Let them in.”
“Okay, I’ll call them now.” Tesia swam outside the palace and said to Han Zhan, “The king is letting you in.”
Han Zhan and the others swam into the palace and immediately felt a chill. They looked at the thin figure behind the curtain. Is this their king?
The young man opened the shark and swam out. It was obvious that he could see the translucent gills between his arms and the sides of his body. Ai Rui was flabbergasted, their king turned out to be a shark? !
Looking at the corner of his eyes, the unique pattern of a mermaid appeared. Is this a mackerel or a mermaid?
The boy’s voice softly explained, “My father is a mermaid, and my mother is a mackerel.” He has half of the merman bloodline and half of the mackerel bloodline in his body.
Ai Rui has also heard that there are fish and mackerel couples, but it is very rare, because it is extremely difficult for mermaids and mackerels to conceive an egg, and they may not be able to conceive an egg in their lifetime.
Unexpectedly, we can see a living “hybrid” today.
Han Zhan doesn’t care whether he is a mermaid or a mackerel. “What can you do with us?”
The young man said softly, “I know you are looking for the Seagod’s divine power.” He said quickly, “Don’t deny it in a hurry, I just want to ask you to help.”
“As a condition, I can tell you, where is the other Seagod’s divine power?”
“I originally planned to find Poseidon’s Divine Power by myself, but I changed my mind when I saw you.” The young man smiled bitterly, “Because of my current physical condition, I am afraid I can’t swim out of the sea.”
Dong Zai said, “Are you sick?”
The young man looked at Dongzai, feeling good for no reason. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, “Yes, I’m sick.”
“You are a good fish, and you will get better soon.”
“Thank you for your blessing, little mermaid.” The young man raised his hand to support the wreath on Cub Fudong’s head. “Your wreath is very beautiful. Next time I will ask Tesia to make one for me.”
“This is the wreath my brother made for me.” Dongzai smiled, “Your palace is also very beautiful.”
The boy looked at Dongzai’s blue eyes. When he mentioned “Brother”, his eyes seemed to be shining, even more dazzling than his palace.
“Your brother must like you very much.”
“Yeah.” Dong Zai said, “I like my brother very much, too.”
A warm current waded in Han Zhan’s heart.
Jiali said sourly, “Isn’t Zub Zub’s favorite father?”
The winter cub hugged his father’s fishtail, “I like father the most.”
Han Zhan’s thin lips pressed into a straight line.
Ai Rui shook his head helplessly. They are all grown-up fish. Why are they playing jealous tricks like little fish cubs. He turned his head and asked the boy, “What do you want us to help you with?”
Since Dong Zai said that he is a good fish, Ai Rui believes him for the time being.
“My name is Luo Xi. I am a product of the union of a mermaid and a mackerel. I have been very weak since I broke my shell. The elder mackerel in the clan said that I am destined to live not long ago. I didn’t believe it before. But recently I feel more and more physically. The power of is dying, I’m scared, but I don’t want to die.” A miserable smile appeared on the boy’s face, “If you find the power of the Seagod, I hope you can save me.”
Luo Xi looked very sincere, not like lying.
Han Zhan calmly said: “The existence of Poseidon is nothing more than a legend. Even if he really has the power of Poseidon, we cannot guarantee that we can save you.”
“Tesia and I have tried various methods, but none of them worked. Poseidon’s power is our last hope. No matter what, I want to try it.”
Jiali and the others exchanged glances, and Han Zhan said, “Yes.”
The teenager smiled happily. He said, “You take another day off, and I will send you away tomorrow.”
Ai Rui folded his hands behind his head and asked, “Can I go out for a stroll?”
“Tesia.” Luo Xi called out softly.
Tesia untied the conch wrapped around his waist, he blew it, and a shark came in immediately, Tesia ordered: “Take him out, but you can’t leave the island.”
Ai Rui went out to hang out with the shark.
Jiali intends to go back to sleep, he waved to Dongzai, “Zizai, we are going back.”
At this time, Luo Xi asked: “Little Mermaid, can you stay and play with me for a while? I still have a lot of pearls here, all for you to play.”
A lot of pearls, the winter cub moved a little bit.
Jiali pointed at Kyle, “You look at him, don’t let him slip away.”
Luo Xi smiled, “Don’t worry, Tesia is very good.”
Jiali was noncommittal, and it was really good to be able to draw a tie with Ai Rui, but it was almost compared to him.
After Jiali and the others left, Luo Xi took out a huge blue pearl from the bedroom. Such a large pearl is rare even in the Yate Sea. “Little mermaid, this is for you to play with.”
Dong Zai turned his head to look at Han Zhan, “Brother.”
Luo Xi was surprised, “Are you his brother?”
Han Zhan “hmm” and said, “Cub can play, brother is watching here.” As he said, he leaned against the wall, keeping his eyes on the little mermaid.
“I won’t hurt him,” Luo Xi opened her thin and feeble hands, “I can’t hurt him like me.”
Dong Zai swam to Luo Xi, “Let’s play racquetball.”
“Okay.” With a smile on Luo Xi’s face, she gently flicked the fish’s tail and patted the pearl back.
From time to time, they laughed cheerfully in the palace.
Tesia didn’t know when he leaned in, he sighed silently, “I haven’t seen Wang so happy for a long time.”
“What is your relationship with him?” Han Zhan asked suddenly.
Tesia looked at him, “You can see it.”
Han Zhan lowered his eyes and said he didn’t care, he just asked casually.
With Luo Xi’s weak state, he can become the king of a sea area, and I want to know who is behind him helping him.
“Luo Xi and I are partners.”
Tesia only said one word, and said nothing.
Luo Xi played for a while, gradually losing strength, her pale cheeks were flushed, her chest was slightly undulating, and she was obviously tired.
“Wang, you should rest.”
Dong Zai said concerned: “You take a good rest, I will look for you to play next time.”
Luo Xi was still a little reluctant, he took Dong Zai’s hand and said, “I will let Tesia give you sweet sauce fish tonight, you will definitely like it.”
“What is sweet sauce fish?”
“Sweet sauce fish is to cut the fin fish into fish fillets, and then apply sweet sauce on top. We go to the island every morning, pick the sweet fruits that grow on the trees, pound them into jam, and spread them on the fish fillets. , The soft and sweet jam, paired with the tender fin sharks, is especially delicious.”
It sounds so delicious, Dong Zai is a bit greedy, and starts to look forward to the night.
“That’s right, there’s more.” Luo Xi took the winter cub and swam into the bedroom.
In the corner of the bedroom, there are rows of wooden boxes filled with large and small pearls. The large ones are like blue pearls, and the small ones are only the size of a thumb. They look like pearls made from teardrops from a shark.
Luo Xi was embarrassed and said, “This is all mine… If you don’t dislike it, just use it for fun.”
Seeing Tesia’s face turned dark, Han Zhan swam in and picked up the winter cub, “No, there are too many things, we can’t take it away.”
It is a pity for Luo Xi, and soon he cheered up, “Well then, next time you come to play, I will ask you to eat sweet sauce fish.”
After swimming out of the bedroom, Dong Zai held the Blue Pearl. He looked back from time to time, and He Luo Xi waved a small hand.
Han Zhan deliberately squeezed Dong Cub’s ears, “Cub loves him so much?”
Dong Zai put his chin on the pearl, “He is really a good fish.” Not only did he play bouncing with him, but he also invited him to eat fish with sweet sauce.
He will definitely get better.
