I may be a dummy

The Great Trench is located in the northerly area, the days are short and the nights are long, the peaks are covered with ice and snow, the sea water is icy cold, Han Zhan even felt his heart beating slower.

It's been a long time, and he almost can't remember how long he has been here.

A dozen mermaids gathered around the Great Trench, all of whom came from other sea areas. When swimming out of the Great Trench, they were attacked by insects and almost died. They were later rescued by Lei Zhe and the others.

After more than ten days, countless sea beasts died. If their bones were piled up, they might be piled up into a small mountain.

Lei Zhe wiped the flesh from between his nails, "After killing these sea beasts, we'll go back."

Han Zhan silently ate the last mouthful of sea beast meat. He got up, his head was at the height of Lei Zhe's shoulders, and he looked sideways at the big trench with deep eyes. Several days of killing made him even more gloomy.

Lei Zhe said slowly, "Zai Zai should miss you very much."

Han Zhan's thoughts drifted away, and a small blue fish tail appeared in his mind.

When he is free, he also wonders whether the little mermaid will be hungry or grow taller.Whenever he thinks of that delicate little mermaid, Han Zhan's anger dissipates from his brows, and his eyes soften a little, "Okay."

"After you go back, see if you can call more mermaids over." Long Hui covered the bleeding wound on his arm, his voice was weak, and his face was pale due to excessive blood loss.

Long Hui could feel that the nearby mermaids were ready to retreat. Once they retreated, this line of defense would completely collapse, and a large number of bugs would flood into the sea.

"You really don't want to go back with us?" Lei Zhe asked him.

"I won't leave." Long Hui said with a calm expression, "Don't worry, I have my sense of proportion."

Lei Zhe didn't intend to continue to persuade Long to return, "Zuo Lun promised that he would not leave here until we came back, and he would try his best to persuade other mermaids to stay. Be careful yourself."

Zuo Lun is one of the mermaids rescued by Lei Zhe and the others. He was once a mermaid born in this sea area.

As soon as he took a breath, he saw a long tentacle protruding from the crack, Long Hui frowned, "Here it goes again."

There are circles of blue rings on the body of the sea beast, and several tentacles protruding from the bottom. It is a sea beast that only contains poison.

Another bitter fight followed.

The little chubby bird was lying on the beach, basking in the sun, facing the blue sea and blue sky, gnawing on the delicious grilled fish.

The little fat bird narrowed his eyes, so happy.

Reluctantly, Dongzai jumped off Jiali's father's shoulders, and at the same time his tail turned into short legs. He tentatively stretched out his little feet and stepped on the sand, "Fatty~"

"Little mermaid, are you calling me?" The little fat bird sat up and ran over.

The little mermaid and the little fat bird sat neatly on the beach.

"Little mermaid, do you eat grilled fish?" The little fat bird enthusiastically shared the food with the little mermaid.

Dong Zai's eyes were glued to the grilled brown and crispy fish, and he refused with difficulty, "No, I won't eat it."

The little mermaid cried inwardly.

Woooo~ Zai Zai can't bite.

"Okay then." The little fat bird was quite sorry, and then immersed himself in eating happily.

Winter Cub was so greedy that he could only bite his little hand, "Fatty, weaving a net?"

Fatty, can you weave a web?

"You said weaving nets." Little Fat Bird scratched his head, "I don't know how to weave, but the orcs in our tribe can. If you want, I will bring you some nets tomorrow, little mermaid, what do you want nets for?"

Dong Zai said softly, "Catch the bugs."

"Probably not." The little chubby bird gestured to Dongzai with his hands open, "The holes we weave are so big, the worms are not as thick as my fingers, and they will come out of the holes."

"Ah..." Dong Zai lowered his head, a little disappointed.

Qihe, who was sitting by the campfire grilling fish, suddenly said, "If you want to weave a small net, you can find a shark."

Dongzai looked at Qihe with blue eyes, obediently waiting for him to speak.

Qi He felt that his claws were starting to itch again, so he forced himself to turn his head away from looking at the little mermaid, and turned over the fish in his hand to continue grilling, "The silk produced by the mermaid is very tough, and the insects should not stop biting."

Jiali doesn't like fire very much, and he always feels uncomfortable when he gets close to it, and his tail is dry, so he sits by the sea and waits for the winter cub.

Just after tidying up Ai Rui, Jiali saw that it was getting late, and he waved to Dongzai, "Zaizai, go back and eat meaty meat."

"Okay~" Dong Zai flew over, and his little feet stepped on the sand in a series of small footprints.

The little fat bird quickly waved its paw, "Little mermaid, I will come to play with you tomorrow!"

Back in the shallow sea area, Jiali slaughtered the remaining finfish that were seriously injured and died. He and the little gray whale each ate two, and there was one left. Jiali tore off the finfish meat and smashed it into a paste.

Jiali picked up the shell bowl, the meat paste looked delicious, Jiali couldn't help but tasted it, and then tasted it again.

Just as he was about to taste the third bite, the winter cub on his shoulder tugged Jiali's father's hair.

Dongzai pouted, "Daddy, Zaizai is hungry."

Feeling guilty, Jiali quickly coaxed the little mermaid, "There is still half a fin fish, if it is not enough, Dad will get you some more."

Dongzai was so hungry that he had been watching the bird man eating, his father eating, and the little fat bird all day long. Dongzai was so greedy that his mouth was watering.

After eating the meaty meat, Dongzai touched his belly, jumped into Jiali's father's arms, and called out in a tender voice, "Daddy."

Jiali picked up the little mermaid and rubbed her forehead against it, "Zai Zai, what's wrong?"

Dongzai didn't know what to say for the word "merman". He wrinkled his face and hugged his father's fingers with both hands, "Dad, weaving."

Jiali blinked, feeling very embarrassed, "Zai Zai, Dad doesn't know how to weave."

Dong Zai became anxious, and his speech became stuttering, "Yuyu, weaving cloth, weaving nets..."

After communicating for a long time, Jiali finally understood, "Zai Zai is talking about sharks, right?"

Dongzai nodded heavily, "Ah!"

It's a shark, Dad.

Mermaids and mermaids are both half-human and half-fish, but they are very different when you look at it carefully.

For example, the most important point is that mermaids are vegetarians, and mermaids are meat eaters.Moreover, the tails of sharks cannot be turned into legs. They live in the deep sea all year round and hardly go ashore.

After sharks eat a lot of sea flowers and seaweed, a layer of silk will form on the belly button. At first, sharks find it very troublesome because they often have to spin silk.Later, when they were bored, they gathered the resulting silk. After learning the weaving technique from the orcs, they were out of control ever since.

The shark silk woven by the sharks is thin, flexible, and the quantity is very small, and it quickly became a best-selling commodity on the mainland.

Sharks like to live in groups, and they will migrate frequently with changes in the direction of ocean fish and warm ocean currents, on average once every ten years. [Note] The last time Jiali saw the sharks was ten years ago. I don't know if they have changed positions.

Jiali picked up the little mermaid, sent him back to the small room, and took off the leaf on Dongzai's head, "Okay, dad will take you to find the shark tomorrow, but you should go to bed, Zaizai."

Dongzai glanced at the small room next to the gorgon through the window sill, and his brother has not come back today.

After watching it for a while, Dong Cub crawled back to the shell bed and covered it with his "little quilt".

At the same time, in another small white house in Qianhai District, Yuan Xi looked at Ai Rui's bruised nose and swollen face in surprise, "Uncle Ai Rui, what happened to your face?"

Ai Rui covered his face and came out of Xiaobai's room secretly. He planned to take a look at Yuan Xi quietly before going back, but Yuan Xi bumped into him.

He laughed dryly, "It's nothing, I was scratched by the sea beast a few times."

"Uncle Ai Rui is lying." Yuan Xi said angrily.

"Okay baby, it's time for you to go to bed." Ai Rui picked up Yuan Xi and put him on the stone bed, coaxing him to sleep, "Go to bed early, and take uncle to play with Dong Cub tomorrow."

Yuan Xi turned his back and ignored him.

However, Yuan Xi is a gentle little mermaid, and he quickly calmed down. He touched Ai Rui's chin, "Don't fight with other mermaids next time."

"Our Xiaoyuanxi is so nice." Ai Rui rubbed Yuanxi's little hand and grinned.

Ai Rui got up early in the morning, scooped up Yuanxi to look for Dongzai, just approached the small stone house, when he heard Jiali muttering that he was looking for a merman, Ai Rui poked his head out, "I know where the merman lives."

Jiali let out a soft "hum" from her nasal cavity, and ignored the other party.

Dong Cub looked at the bruise on Ai Rui's face, "Huh?"

"Zai Zai," realizing that Dong Zai's hair was a bit messy, Ai Rui re-tied him into a beautiful braid, and while braiding his hair, he took the opportunity to lean up to Jiali, "I haven't calmed down yet, why don't you hit me again A meal?"

Jiali squeezed her fingers, and couldn't help wanting to punch someone, "Stay away from me."

Ai Rui let go of the winter cub's hair, and immediately swam three meters away, intending to gossip with Jiali, "Jiali, when will your Lei Zhe come back?"

Jiali turned her head and ignored him, "Zai Zai, let's go." He took Dong Zai and swam towards the canyon.

"Jia Li, you're going in the wrong direction. Those sharks have already moved to the south." Ai Rui picked up Yuan Xi and hurriedly followed.

Jiali then turned around, the red fish tail swayed slightly, and dived to the bottom of the sea.

Ai Rui laughed bitterly, "Xiaoyuanxi, you have to help Uncle Ai Rui."

Yuan Xi patted Ai Rui's face sympathetically, "Uncle Ai Rui, why did you make Uncle Jiali unhappy." Dad said that Uncle Jiali's anger is terrifying.

He deserved it, stealing cubs in front of Jiali.Ai Rui had no choice but to take Yuan Xi along and follow Jiali secretly.

This time the merman moved a little far away, and Jiali swam for a long time, but didn't see a merman. She couldn't help wondering if Ai Rui had lied to him, and Jiali was ready to beat him up.

Dongzai sat on his father's shoulder and looked left and right, suddenly he saw a brown fish tail dangling in front of his eyes, Dongzai pulled Jiali's father's hair, "Dad, there are fish~"

Jiali took a closer look, and sure enough there was a fish shadow swimming in front of her, and Jiali chased after him flicking her tail, "Don't run away, the merman over there!"

When the merman heard the voice of the mermaid, he swam away in a panic.

Jiali rushed over and grabbed the shark by the tail, "Why are you running, I don't eat sharks."

The winter cub opened his curious eyes, ah, the mermaid is so small, not half the height of his father, well, the tail is short, and there are translucent gills between the arms and the sides of the body.

Dong Zai looked down at himself, Zai Zai had no gills.

The other party was a female merman, she trembled violently, tears fell from her eyes, melted into the water and turned into white beads, she was so nervous that she was about to faint, she said in unskilled mermaid language: "Mermaid, please!" , please let me go."

"Wow~" Dongzai held a pearl with open arms, and the tears that just fell from the eyes of the merman still had the temperature of the merman on it. Dongzai happily held it up, "Dad, look."

"Be good, baby, let's play for a while."

Jiali let go of the merman's tail, "Where do you live?"

The frightened look on the shark's face was still there, and her voice trembled, "It's just ahead, I'll take you there."

Jiali was very puzzled, he is not very fierce, as to why he is so afraid, the sharks are just timid.

He followed the merman with his winter cubs not too far away, and after swimming for a while, he saw a string of nests floating in the sea, with transparent merman hanging on the roof, forming a strange pattern. underwater landscape.

Most of the sharks are ingenious. They weave seaweed into nests, so that they can be taken away conveniently when migrating.

A ferocious mermaid intruding into the mermaid's territory is like a ferocious wolf intruding into the flock of sheep. The mermaids quickly dropped their things and hid in the seaweed house in a panic.

At this time, a male merman swims over, it seems to be the partner of the female merman.When the female merman saw the male merman, she quickly hid behind him, saying something she couldn't understand.

Mermaids and mermaids do not speak the same language. Most mermaids can understand mermaid language, and some mermaids can speak mermaid language. However, mermaids usually communicate in their own language.

The male mermaid's voice was a little blunt, "Mermaid, what do you want from us?"

"Can you weave nets?" Jiali said, "There are a lot of bugs in the sea, not only eat sea beasts, but also eat mermaids. We have to find a way to catch bugs."

The female merman whispered in her partner's ear and said, "I heard from the passing mermaids that there were bugs eating mermaids over there."

The male merman hesitated for a moment, "I have to ask my people."

Jiali didn't take a step closer to the shark's nest, and kept a certain distance from the shark, after all, the shark didn't welcome the arrival of their mermaid tribe very much.

Dongzai rolled around on the beads, and suddenly rolled into an embrace. Dongzai raised his head, his eyes sparkling. It turned out to be Uncle Ai Rui and Brother Yuanxi, "Yuanyuan, brother."

Dong Zai picked up the merman's tear pearl, swung his tail and swam to Yuan Xi. He stuffed the pearl into Yuan Xi's arms, "Brother, play."

Yuan Xi guessed at a glance that Dong Zai wanted to play ball, Yuan Xi held the beads and threw them up, flicked his tail, and patted the beads to Dong Zai.

Dongzai's small tail fin swayed happily, ah, the beads flew crookedly, Dongzai flicked his tail, jumped into the seaweed bushes, and patted the beads back to Brother Yuanxi.

After a long time, the male mermaid swims back and sees two little mermaids having fun. The mermaid's eyes are soft, and the mermaid is always tolerant towards the little fish cubs.

"Mermaids, they agreed to weave nets for you. I don't know what kind of nets you need?"

Mermaids are gentle and kind by nature, Jiali is not surprised by this result, they all live in the same sea area, if even the mermaids are captured, the mermaids will not be much better.

The reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, they, the mermaids, are still clear.

Jiali gave Ai Rui a lukewarm look, "Hello!"

Ai Rui swam forward with his tail. He grabbed Yuan Xi's little hand, pointed at Yuan Xi's smallest finger, and said, "The worm is about this big. The hole in the net should be as small as possible."

The male merman said, "No problem."

"Then I'll come and get it tomorrow."

Dongzai was tired from playing, so he swam to Jiali's father's shoulder, and he patted his shriveled belly, "Dad~"

"Are you hungry? Let's go back then." Jiali stretched out her hand towards Yuanxi, "Xiaoyuanxi, come to Uncle Jiali."

Yuan Xi looked at Ai Rui, "But..."

Jiali sneered, "He stays here today."

Ai Rui shivered, "Yes, Xiaoyuanxi, you go back with Jiali, I will stay here and go back tomorrow."

When Jiali brought the two little mermaids back to the shallow sea area, it was already dark, and Jiali prepared meat paste for Dongzai, and also prepared a portion of finfish meat for Yuanxi.

Yuan Xi had a shy face. After eating his share of fin fish meat, he picked up Dong Zai's shell bowl, scooped up a spoonful of meat paste, and brought it to Dong Zai, "Dong Zai eat."

When the winter cub was eating happily, the little tail fin happily patted his father's palm, "That's a good time."

"Xiao Yuanxi stay here tonight and sleep with Zai Zai." Jiali patted Yuan Xi's small head.

"Brother, play with the ball." Dongzai took Yuanxi's little hand and swam to the small room.

After playing ball, Dongzai soon became sleepy. He yawned and crawled back to the shell bed, "Zaizai, sleep."

After Dongzai fell asleep, Yuanxi swam out and called out hesitantly, "Uncle Jiali."

Jiali patted her tail and started to swim, "Xiaoyuanxi, why haven't you slept yet?"

Yuan Xi said softly: "Uncle Jiali, do you know how my father died?" The father in Yuan Xi's words refers to his other mermaid father, Yan Sheng.

The little mermaid has the ability to think independently after breaking its shell. Yuan Xi still clearly remembers that one day his father disappeared, and he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

Until one day, Longhui's father came back and told him that Yansheng's father had died.

Yuan Xi is still a little mermaid, but she also understands what death means. When she dies, she is gone, and she will never see her again.

That day Yuan Xi cried so much that it was the first time Yuan Xi cried since he broke his shell.

Jiali bent down and looked at Yuanxi earnestly. The little mermaid's heart was soft but strong, "I was bitten to death by bugs."

Jiali didn't think it was necessary to hide it from Yuan Xi, and she also wanted to let the little mermaids know that bugs are dangerous, and when encountering bugs, they must run away as soon as possible and as far away as possible.

Of course, if it was Dongzai, Jiali would choose to hide it. To Jiali, his Zaizai is different, he is so delicate, he cannot be frightened.

The double standard is so fresh and refined.

Yuan Xi clenched his fist, "Is it the little bug I saw yesterday?"

"Yes."

"I see."

Jiali raised her eyebrows, "Xiaoyuanxi, aren't you afraid?"

Yuan Xi shook his head vigorously, "Don't be afraid, when I become an adult, I will also kill bugs."

Jiali put her big hand on Yuanxi's head and rubbed it, "Go back to sleep."

The fish eggs successfully hatched a group of small fish cubs. There were too many cubs, and a few finfishes were added. The little gray whale couldn't take care of it for a while, and many small cubs escaped.However, there is enough food on the gorgonian coral, and most of the small fish cubs stayed behind to become the winter cubs' food reserve.

Dongzai stretched out his small hand, and a small fish cub swam over and sucked his finger. Dongzai felt a little itchy and couldn't help "giggling".

There were also insects in the fish schools coming from other sea areas. When the news spread, the mermaids became reluctant to go out. Except for their daily predation, they nestled in the shallow sea area for other time.

And the little mermaids were very happy, jumping up and down every day to make a fuss.Dong Kui swam past with a group of little mermaids, and when he saw the winter cub on the back of the little gray whale, he stopped, waved his little hand and shouted, "Come and play, the winter cub."

The winter cub patted the head of the little gray whale, "Little Huihui."

The little gray whale swam to Dongkui with the winter cub on its back.

Seeing Dongzai, the little mermaids who were mischievous just now became inexplicably shy, "Dongzai, let's go to the sea to play, do you want to come together?"

"Father." Dongzai turned his head and shouted, "Zaizai, go play~"

Jiali was happily counting the little fish cubs, without raising her head when she heard the words, "Go, don't play too late, I will help you watch the little fish cubs."

"Brother, let's go." Dong Zai did not forget to call up to Yuanxi, and the two little mermaids sat on the back of the little gray whale and swam towards the sea.

"Dong Zai, why haven't you played with us recently," the little mermaids gathered around, chattering, "Dong Zai, Dong Zai..."

Dong Zai smiled, "Zai Zai, raise fish~"

Zai Zai wants to raise fish, play with Xiao Huihui, let Yuanxi brother braid his hair, he is very busy~

Finally Dongzai was willing to come out to play, the little mermaids were excited, they caught fish and picked sea flowers for Dongzai, after a while, Dongzai was full of presents in his arms.

Zai Zai is so distressed.

Dong Kui jumped in anger, and opened her hands to stop the other little mermaids, "You are not allowed to give anything to Dong Zai anymore."

"What are you doing, let me go!" Dong Kui found himself flying into the air, so irritable that he wanted to curse.

The little mermaids smiled and picked up Dong Kui, threw him out, and then leaned in front of Dong Zai, "Dong Zai, I can also braid my hair, shall I braid it for you?"

Today the sea is calm and calm, occasionally one or two eagle birds fly by, and a group of white and tender little mermaids emerge from the sea surface, the birds' paws are itchy.Their eyes fell on the little mermaid on the back of the little gray whale, paused strangely for a moment, and then flew away with fluttering wings.

The cub of the red-tailed mermaid couldn't afford to mess with it and slipped away.

The little chubby bird kept its animal shape and spread out on the beach to enjoy the sun, and saw little mermaids emerging from the sea, surrounded by other mermaid friends, and the little chubby bird sat up with difficulty, "Little mermaid, what did you do yesterday?" Why didn't you come?"

The winter cub jumped off the back of the little gray whale and swam to the reef, "Looking for fish~"

The little chubby bird immediately understood that Dongzai was looking for the shark, "Then did you find it?"

Dongzai flicked his small tail fin and patted the water, smiling sweetly, "I found it."

"What do sharks look like?" Little Fat Bird was curious, "Do you have a beautiful fish tail like yours?"

Dongzai thought for a while, rubbed his eyes, and made a crying motion, "dropping beads, it's fun."

"Quack quack." The little chubby bird hugged her belly and laughed loudly. "I heard that sharks would drop pearls when they cried. I thought it was a lie, but it turned out to be true."

Dongkui shouted from a distance: "Dongzai, what are you talking to Birdman? Come and play."

The little fat bird waved its wings and raised the sand, "Little mermaid, do you want to fly in the sky, I'll take you."

Recalling the first time I saw Little Fat Bird, the other party fell halfway through the flight, Dongzai shook his head in fear, "No, no need."

"What are you afraid of?" The little chubby bird opened its claws, picked up the winter cub, and threw it on its back.

Tears welled up in Dongzai's eyes, and he tightly held the little chubby bird's feathers with his small hands, closing his eyes and not daring to move.

The little chubby bird spread its wings and flew towards the sea. Just as it took off, it was caught by a hand.

Dongzai felt himself falling into a generous chest, and a familiar voice sounded from above his head, "Zaizai, do you miss me?"
