I may be a dummy

Looking at each other, Yuan Xi quickly turned his eyes away, his eyelashes trembling slightly, as if there was an inexplicable feeling spreading between them.

Ai Rui was itchy and couldn't help but want to touch his eyelashes, he cleared his throat, "I..."

As soon as he said a word, he saw Fia squeezed into the middle of them, he patted Ai Rui on the shoulder, and laughed without malice: "I said Ai Rui, you only have Yuan Xi in your eyes, you can't see us, right? Bar."

"Hiss!" Airi spat out cold water and shook off his paw, "Go away."

Yuan Xi frowned, "Uncle Fia, Uncle Ai Rui injured his shoulder, be careful."

"Yuan Xi is still caring." Fia winked and said.

Outside the house, Dongchen scratched his chin while watching the people laughing and playing inside, "Brother, do you think Brother Yuanxi and Uncle Ai Rui are a bit weird."

Han Zhan glanced lightly, "No."

It's not that he didn't see the ambiguous relationship between Yuan Xi and Ai Rui, it's just that he was too lazy to pay attention, and he didn't want Dongchen to be distracted by caring about other mermaids.

Ai Rui swam out, he grinned and greeted with a smile: "Dongchen is here too."

Looking at the wound on Ai Rui's body that was soaked and turned white, if it was delayed, the wound would rot, and if it was more serious, it would even lead to death.It can be seen that Ai Rui is enduring the pain at this time, and doesn't want them to worry.

Dong Chen quickly exchanged glances with Han Zhan, and he whispered, "Uncle Ai Rui, can you come here?"

"Huh?" Ai Rui heard Dongchen calling him, and turned to the right.

At this moment, Dongchen raised his hand and pointed his finger on Ai Rui's wound weakly, his fingertips flickered with faint light.

Ai Rui was stunned for a while, he felt a cold shoulder, and the wound healed quickly, he raised his lips and smiled, "Thank you Xiao Dongchen."

Suddenly Dongchen said "Hey", his fingers slid across the healed scar, and when he was about to touch Ai Rui's chest, he was pulled back by Han Zhan, whose eyes sank, "Don't touch it."

When he was about to meet Ai Rui, Dongchen noticed that there was a weak vitality coming from Ai Rui's chest. Before he could think about it, he heard Longhui's slightly cold voice, "Let's leave here first."

Dongchen withdrew her hand, frowning slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

This is indeed not a place to talk. They felt the mermaids around them, and looked at them with strange eyes.

"Come with me." Ai Rui pinched his fingers and sneered, "Let's settle accounts with those male mermaids."

Han Zhan asked him, "How did you get caught?"

"It's a long story," Ai Rui rubbed his nose, "I was too careless."

At this time, on the other side of Haicheng, several green-tailed mermaids hugged each other and shivered.

The light brown-haired mermaid bit her nails with a panicked expression, "What to do, he's coming! He's coming!"

The other mermaids also followed suit, "It must be him, who can set off such a huge wave except the incarnation of the Sea God."

"How about we run away? Before he finds us."

The light brown-haired mermaid said bitterly, "Where can we escape..."

Before the words fell, a loud "bang" was heard, the wall behind them collapsed, and the gravel crashed down, and they were caught off guard.

Ariel Leng's voice came from above his head, "Where do you want to escape to?"

The mermaids in embarrassment got up from under the rocks. They rushed forward, hugged Ai Rui's fish tail, and burst into tears, "It's great that you're fine."

Ai Rui flicked the tail of the fish vigorously, sending them flying.

Dongchen rolled her eyes and didn't smile at all, "Do you still remember what I told you at that time, you failed my trust and almost killed Uncle Ai Rui."

The blue-tailed mermaids trembled in fright, "We didn't do it on purpose."

Dongchen was very aware of their psychological changes. At the beginning, his power was still there, so they naturally didn't dare to disobey his orders. When they returned to Isbella, they immediately passed on the news.

As time went by, they gradually became fearless, thinking that he would not be able to catch up with Isbella anyway, so they plotted against Ai Rui with peace of mind.

"Please let us go." The blue-tailed mermaids paled and begged, "We were planted with insect eggs by Nina. If we don't listen to him, we will die."

Han Zhan's voice was low, "Eggs?"

Hearing the word "worm egg", Ai Rui raised his hand a little uneasily and touched his chest, "What are insect eggs?"

"It's the eggs laid by insects," the blue-tailed mermaid hurriedly explained, "Nina doesn't trust us at all. When we return to the sea area, they will plant insect eggs in our bodies. Once we don't listen to her, she will kill us." spawn the eggs inside us and kill us."

No wonder, Dongchen sighed slightly. When he asked the mermaid before, he clearly didn't feel that there were bugs in the other person's body, but in the end he was still bitten to death by the bugs.

It turned out that Nina had planted insect eggs in their bodies from the beginning to control the mermaids in the entire sea area.

Ai Rui's eyelids twitched slightly, revealing the tension in his heart, "Dongchen, did you just find out that I also have insect eggs in my body?"

He wondered why after Nina caught him, she didn't kill him directly. The feeling was to plant worm eggs in his body, so as to threaten him and do things for her.

Hearing this, Yuan Xi clenched his fingers tightly.

Dongchen nodded, "I felt the faint vitality just now, and I thought it was an illusion. If I didn't meet you, I wouldn't have noticed it."

Ai Rui was calm, "It's a good thing we found out in time, don't be afraid, I'll be fine." He put his big hand on Yuan Xi's head and rubbed his hair.

Yuan Xi patted his hand away, and asked Dongchen, "Can you kill insect eggs?"

"Let me try." Dongchen bent down, and his fingertips brushed across the chest of the mermaid, and then he shook his head, "I can't find it."

Dongchen turned around, looked up at Han Zhan, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and smiled flatteringly.

The lines on Han Zhan's face were tense, his lips were pursed into a straight line, and he nodded slightly.

"Uncle Ai Rui, let me touch you again." Dongchen rubbed her fingertips, and stretched out her fingers as thin as green onions hesitantly.

Ai Rui glanced at Yuan Xi at the side, and said with a lazy smile, "Ask Xiao Yuan Xi if he agrees."

"Why do you ask brother Yuanxi?" Dong Chen was puzzled.

Yuan Xi's ears turned red, "Don't listen to his nonsense, Dongchen has troubled you."

Dongchen's palm was attached to Ai Rui's heart, and the previous wound had healed, leaving only a faint scar.

He carefully felt the body under the palm of his hand, the heart was beating slowly, and the blood was flowing quietly. Other than that, there was nothing unusual, as if what he had noticed before was just an illusion.

Yuan Xi and the others couldn't help but hold their breath, fearing to disturb Dongchen.

When he withdrew his hand, a bloodstain was accidentally drawn on his fingernails. He paused his fingers, and he felt that something was slowly waking up.

The eggs are on the chest.

It would be easy to know the location of the eggs. His palm trembled slightly, and the weak vitality inside disappeared instantly, "Okay."

"Thank you." Ai Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Why can mine feel it, but theirs can't?"

Han Zhan thought for a moment, "I probably know."

He pointed to the blue-tailed mermaids, "Bite your tongues."

The blue-tailed mermaids looked at each other, they just bit their tongues, it was not difficult, they immediately bit the tip of their tongues with their sharp teeth, blood with the smell of rust flowed into their throats.

Suddenly there was a piercing pain in the abdomen. They clutched their lower abdomen and crawled to the bottom of Dongchen fish, "Please save us."

Dongchen looked down at them, not intending to help them out.

Ai Rui raised his hand and slapped them unconscious.

There was no smell of blood, and the eggs in their bodies gradually subsided, but they just fell into a deep sleep. Once the host was injured, the eggs would revive again, grow up in a short period of time, and then gnaw from inside.

If the worm eggs in their bodies cannot be resolved, the next time they are injured, that is their real time of death.

After what seemed like a long time, Nina barely moved her fingers. She stretched out her hand weakly, and the mermaid guard next to her immediately supported her, "Are you okay?"

Now, they must have found Ai Rui, she lowered her eyes, "Go back to the palace."

Back in the palace, Nina covered her mouth and coldly ordered: "Kill those locked up, Nisla mermaids."

The mermaid guard looked shocked, but he didn't dare to disobey her order, "Yes."

She waved her hand, "Go down."

After the mermaid guard left, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The blood spread in the sea water, and the bugs hiding in the bedroom in the corner fled in all directions.

A strong smell of blood filled the entire Haicheng.

"What's going on?" Fia sniffed the smell of blood, pinched his nose, and asked in a muffled voice.

"I'll go out and take a look." Long went back and walked around twice, but brought back a male merman covered in blood.

Long Hui left the merman behind, "I saw a mermaid chasing him, so I brought him back. He should know something."

Seeing the strange mermaid, the merman was almost frightened. He said in a trembling voice, "Who are you?"

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." Dongchen's voice was soft, like a warm wind, soothing the frightened merman, "Why did they chase you down?"

The merman was not so afraid anymore, he summoned up his courage and said, "We are slaves who specialize in taking blood from mermaids."

When Fia heard it for a while, she thought she had heard it wrong, "Who did you say to draw blood for?"

The merman was startled, and stammered, "Here, for the "Nisla mermaid."

Ai Rui flexed his fingers and knocked on the window sill. He said, "I've also heard that before, Nina captured a group of Nisla mermaids, and wanted to find a bloodline that could disperse bugs like her."

"Then did she find it?" Fia continued to ask him.

The merman's hands were still shaking. He said, "Only the blood of the Nisla female mermaid can disperse the insects. Just now the king suddenly ordered to kill all the Nisla mermaids. I was so scared that I dared not do it."

In addition, the merman was also worried that he would be silenced, so he tried his best to escape.

Dongchen looked up at the palace made of blood-red pearls, which made people feel ominous.

The sea water receded gradually, revealing a corner of the palace.
