I may be a dummy

After finally adapting to the fierce sunlight, Jiali half-closed her eyes and looked at the surrounding environment.Unexpectedly, the entrance and exit of the big trench in this sea area is on the sea surface, with blue sea and blue sky, more than a dozen islands surfaced, forming a circle.

Several blue-tailed mermaids came up and asked, "Where did you come from?"

Ai Rui replied: "Yate Sea Area."

The green-tailed mermaids looked at each other in blank dismay, they had never heard of it, and it was probably some remote sea area.

"What are you doing here and how long are you going to stay?"

Ai Rui squeezed his fist, raised his lips and smiled, "Why do you ask so many questions?"

The blue-tailed mermaid felt the deterrent force from Ai Rui, and they were a little afraid, "Don't be angry, we are just following the king's order to question the mermaid from the Great Trench."

"Your king?"

Come on, another sea area for kingdom building.

"Yes, our king."

Ai Rui patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't be too nervous, we are just passing by, rest in your sea area for one night, and leave tomorrow."

"Yes." The green-tailed mermaid pointed to the sea area ahead, and said, "You can only rest near the small island, and you can't leave too far away, otherwise the patrol team will find out and you will be driven out of the sea area."

Han Zhan slowly let go of the hand covering Dongzai's eyes, and he nodded at the blue-tailed mermaid, "We know."

Only then did the blue-tailed mermaid realize that there was a little mermaid among them, and the little mermaid bit her little hand aggrievedly, obviously hungry.For some reason, their hearts softened, and they couldn't help but say a few more words, "You can hunt around the small island, but don't let the patrol team find out, or you will have to exchange things for it, or you will have to stay and pay for it with your labor." .”

It was the first time Han Zhan and the others heard that there was such a way of exchange, and it felt a little strange for a while.

After a few words of advice, the green-tailed mermaid saw that they were really tired, so she didn't say any 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 this is not an ordinary island, but an island within an island. The island they saw was only a circle around it, and it didn't look like a naturally generated island, but more like an artificial island.

A dozen islands outside surrounded the city, enclosing a hollow island inside.It was a little far away, and they couldn't see what was on the middle island clearly, but they could probably see people on the island.

The outer circle of islands is not a complete island. The islands that surface 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, "Find a place to rest first, and I'll catch the fish."

There were other mermaids on the island, and when they saw them coming, they glanced at them nonchalantly, then turned their heads in disinterest.

They don't plan to stay in this sea area for a long time, nor do they want to deal with the mermaids on the island.

Jiali found a small island with no mermaids on it. The island is full of large rocks, and a few plants grow from the rocks, making the island less barren.

Jiali put Dongzai on the rock, "Are you sleepy, please sleep for a while."

Dongzai nodded and shook his head again. He looked in the direction Han Zhan left, and said softly, "Wait for brother to come back."

Ai Rui turned around and asked Kyle, "What was the last time you came here?"

Kyle faltered and said: "At that time, we were in a hurry to enter the Great Trench, and we didn't look at it carefully. I remember that it was a bit chaotic at that time. The kingdom had not been established, and there were no patrol teams."

Therefore, this sea area has just established a kingdom, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

On the other side, Han Zhan avoided the patrol team and sneaked into the shallow sea area.

The nearby seafood is very rich. Han Zhan took a fishing net and brought back dozens of fish. Han Zhan turned over and found that there were two or three finfish in the fishing net. It can be said to be a surprise.

The wind on the island was very cool, and the wreath on the winter cub's head was a little crooked. The black hair was gently blown by the breeze, and the tips of the hair on his forehead were blown up by the wind, revealing bright patterns.Dong Cub shook his small tail fin, "Brother is back!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a huge fish tail swaying under the water, and then Han Zhan emerged from the water.

Han Zhan sorted out the fish, leaving all the finfish to Dongzai.

Kyle was only given a palm-sized fish, which was not enough to fit between his teeth. He was very self-aware, and silently picked up the fish, reluctant to finish it in one bite.

Finally eating fresh fish, Kyle burst into tears.When food was scarce in the last few days, they survived by eating algae growing from the cracks.

Ai Rui grabbed a lively fish, cut off its head, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Han Zhan was not in a hurry to eat, so he disposed of the finfish first and stuffed it into the cub's arms.

After eating and drinking enough, it was getting late, they slumped on the rocks, rubbing their swollen bellies, the cool breeze blowing made them drowsy.

Dongzai took small bites of the fin fish meat, and halfway through eating, Dongzai pushed the meat to Han Zhan, "Brother, eat quickly, there are fish coming."

Han Zhan threw the fish into his mouth without saying a word, and finished it in two or three bites.

The remaining two finfish, Jiali picked them up, slapped them unconscious neatly, and stuffed them into the crevices of the rocks.

After doing this, the patrol team just appeared in their sight.

They stopped far away, stared at Kyle for a while, seemed to be sure of something, and then swam away.

Han Zhan's eyes darkened, "How many mermaids still know about the sea god's supernatural power?"

"It's just us." Kyle's eyes were erratic, and he didn't dare to look directly into Han Zhan's eyes.

Jiali became angry immediately, he flicked the tail of the fish, and slapped Kyle's face hard, "How many mermaids do you know!"

Kyle was caught off guard a few times with his big mouth, and his handsome face swelled immediately. He covered his face and dodged, "I remembered, and the Oslaika mermaids know about it."

Too bad, Ai Rui has a serious expression, "The Oslaika mermaid may have spread the news about the Seagod's supernatural power."

He made a quick decision, "Let's get out of here immediately."

Han Zhan raised his eyes, "It's too late."

At the same time, Dongzai exclaimed, "A lot of fish."

At this moment, dozens of mermaids suddenly appeared in the sea, directly surrounding their island.Among them is a purple-tailed mermaid, the pattern at the corner of the eye is like a petal, the bridge of the nose is high, the eyes are dark purple, and the facial features are deep, which is different from the mermaid in the Yate Sea.

Winter Cub stared at him curiously.

Han Zhan lowered his eyes, "What are you looking at?"

Dongzai blinked, "Brother, why does he look different from us?"

The purple-tailed mermaid swam up. Hearing this, he couldn't help but have a delicate expression. Then his eyes swept across Han Zhan's and the others' faces, and finally fell on Kyle.

He said coldly: "You are Kyle? Our king invites you to go over."

Kyle turned his head and put on a strange expression, "You are calling me, you are mistaken, I am not some Kyle."

The purple-tailed mermaid couldn't help but press Kyle's shoulder directly, trying to drag him away.

"Wait." Ai Rui tugged on the blue-tailed mermaid's wrist, "He is our companion, if you want to take him away, you should have asked us about it."

The purple-tailed mermaid backed up and raised his hand to grab it, but Ai Rui dodged sideways, the fish tail flicked, and the purple-tailed mermaid retreated again.However, after a few fights, the purple-tailed mermaid could tell that their strength was comparable, if they continued to fight, it would be of no benefit to both sides, so it was better to take a step back.

"You can come here with him." The purple-tailed mermaid continued, "We don't mean to hurt him, but we just want to ask him a few questions."

Han Zhan nodded, "It happens that we also want to visit the middle island."

When it comes to fighting, Jiali has never been afraid of anyone, he yawned, "Do you have a place to sleep?"

"some."

In front of him, Jiali picked up two finfish from the crevices of the rocks. These are the food of his family's cubs, so they cannot be wasted.

The purple-tailed mermaid paused, but finally said nothing.

"Let's go."

They followed the purple-tailed mermaid into the middle island, and there were mermaids patrolling along the way. Without the purple-tailed mermaid leading the way, they would definitely be found if they tried to sneak in.

Before they swam to the island, they saw two heavy stone doors in front of them. The purple-tailed mermaid picked up the conch wrapped around her waist, and blew twice on it.

In less than a moment, the door slowly opened from the inside.

The shark shouted respectfully, "My lord."

The purple-tailed mermaid asked, "Where's 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, and now I will take you to a resting place."

On the way, the purple-tailed mermaid introduced herself 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 patchwork, forming a magnificent water city.

Tesia took them to a larger stone house, "You guys will live here, call them if you need anything."

After speaking, Tesia left a few mermaids to watch outside the house, and then left.

Half of the stone house was submerged in the water, and the mermaid didn't need to turn the tail into legs. Ai Rui swam in first and checked, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Jiali leaned against the window, looking at several small stone houses opposite, and through the moonlight, she vaguely saw that there were mermaids living in the stone houses.

Kyle slumped on the ground, and before he could catch his breath, Eric grabbed his hair and lifted him up, "You really don't know the king here?"

Kyle's injustice, "I really don't know him, I don't even know his name."

Ai Rui let go of Kyle, "If he asks you tomorrow, you have to think about how to answer, if you say something wrong..." As he said, Ai Rui touched his sharp nails.

Kelton shivered suddenly, touched his neck, and said repeatedly: "I won't talk nonsense."

This time, the winter cub was nestled in Han Zhan's arms, his little head was bouncing, obviously sleepy.

There was no bed in the stone house, so Han Zhan held the cub in his arms, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes to rest.

There are mermaids guarding outside, so there is no need to worry about Kyle escaping.

After days of sleepless nights, even Ai Rui couldn't bear it, and soon fell asleep.

When the sky was slightly bright, they heard the sound of blowing conch shells.

Han Zhan woke up first, covered Dongzai's ears with his hands, and then looked out the window.

When the mermaids heard the sound of conch shells, they woke up at the same time and swam to the gate to gather.

Jiali asked the mermaid outside the door, "What are you doing up so early?"

The mermaid said with a straight face, "Nothing."

Jiali made a sudden move, as fast as lightning, and grabbed the blue-tailed mermaid's neck. Ai Rui and Han Zhan also restrained the other mermaids before they could react.

"You can tell us now."

The green-tailed mermaid bit her lip tightly, but refused to speak.

"Let them go!" Tesia wanted to come and take them to see the king, but when he saw this scene, he flicked his fish's tail and swam in front of them, his expression darkened.

Jiali let go of his hand, and he said innocently: "I have no other intentions, I just want to ask what you guys do when you get up so early."

He glanced at Kyle, with a half-smile, and looked at his mouth, which was as tight as a clam shell, and he couldn't even pry it open.

There was a bit of anger in Tesia's eyes, "Our king is up, come with me."

After swimming a few meters, he realized something was wrong. He looked back and found that none of them followed, "What do you mean?"

Jiali lazily leaned against the wall, "I'm hungry, I can't walk."

Tesia's forehead jumped, and he turned his head and told his subordinates, "Prepare them for food."

"Wait." Jiali stopped him.

Tesia had a bad expression, and it was written in her eyes: What do you want to do again!

"My cub is relatively delicate. He can't bite other fish meat, so he can only eat fin fish meat. Please grab a few fin fish."

Winter Cub blinked his eyes and smiled innocently.

No matter how angry Tesia is, it is impossible to lose his temper with the little mermaid, not to mention that the little mermaid in front of him looks really 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 more than a dozen finfish.

By the time the winter cubs finished eating the two finfish, the sun had already risen to the roof.

Before Tesia's patience ran out, Dongzai finally gnawed the last bite of meat. He grabbed the fish bone and said, "Papa here." Jiali threw the fish bone into his mouth and chewed it up several times.

Ai Rui stretched his waist, "I kept you waiting for a long time, take us to meet your king."

"Follow me!" Tesia left a word and swam away.

Jiali picked up the winter cub, and Han Zhan and the others followed Tesia.

They swam into the island, entered a gate, and saw a palace. The walls of the palace were made of shells and dotted with pearls. The whole palace reflected dazzling light in the sun.

"Wow~" Dongzai opened his small mouth, "It's so beautiful."

Dongzai liked shiny things since he was a child, and seeing such a shiny palace made him even more fond of it.

Jiali raised her eyebrows, "Zai Zai likes it? Then let's build one when we go back."

"You wait here, I will report to the king."

Tesia swam into the palace and shouted to the figure behind the curtain, "King, they're here."

The curtains in the palace are made of crocodile silk. Dozens of layers of crocodile silk are stacked. From the outside, one can only vaguely see a stone bed inside.After a while, a young boy's weak voice came from inside. He lifted a corner of the curtain, revealing a pale and almost transparent hand, "Tesia? Why did you come here so late?"

"I'm sorry, king." Tesia went up to hold the boy's thin hand, "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 wants you to come 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 boy lifted the gills and swam out, and it was obvious that there were translucent gills between his arms and the sides of his body.Ai Rui was slightly taken aback, their king turned out to be a shark? !

Looking at the corner of his eyes, there are patterns unique to mermaids. Is this a mermaid or a mermaid?

The boy explained softly: "My father is a mermaid, and my mother is a mermaid." He has half mermaid blood and half mermaid blood in his body.

Ai Rui has also heard that mermaids and mermaids form partners, but it is very rare, because it is extremely difficult for mermaids and mermaids to conceive eggs, and they may not be able to conceive eggs in their entire lives.

I didn't expect to see a live "hybrid" today.

Han Zhan didn't care whether he was a mermaid or a mermaid, "What do you want from us?"

The young man said softly, "I know you are looking for the power of the Sea God." He said hastily, "Don't deny it, I just want to ask you for a favor."

"As a condition, I can tell you, where is the other Seagod's power?"

"I originally planned to find the Seagod's power by myself, but after seeing you, I changed my mind." The young man smiled wryly, "Because of my current physical condition, I'm afraid I won't be able to swim in the sea."

Winter Cub said, "Are you sick?"

The young man looked at Dong Zai, and he felt good for no reason, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "Yeah, I'm sick."

"You're a good fish and you'll get better soon."

"Thank you for your blessing, little mermaid." The boy raised his hand to support the wreath on Fudong Cub's head, "Your wreath is very beautiful, next time I will ask Tecia 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 Dong Cub's blue eyes, and when he mentioned "brother", his eyes seemed to be shining, more dazzling than his palace.

"Your brother must like you very much."

"Yeah." Dongzai said, "I like my brother very much, too."

There was a warm current in Han Zhan's heart.

Jiali said sourly: "Isn't Zai Zai's favorite father?"

Dongzai quickly hugged his father's fishtail, "I like my father the most."

Han Zhan pursed his thin lips into a straight line.

Ai Rui shook his head helplessly, he is already an adult fish, why is he still acting like a little fish cub, playing the game of jealousy, he turned his head and asked the boy, "What do you want us to help you with?"

Since Dongzai said that he is a good fish, Ai Rui will trust him for now.

"My name is Luoxi. I am the product of the combination of a mermaid and a merman. I have been very weak since I broke my shell. The older merman in the clan said that I was destined to live a short time. I didn't believe it before. But recently I feel more and more that my body The power is passing away, I'm afraid, but I don't want to die." A miserable smile appeared on the young man's face, "If you find the sea god's power, I hope you can save me."

Luo Xi's expression was very sincere, not like she was lying.

Han Zhan said calmly: "The existence of the Sea God is just a legend, even if you really have the power of the Sea God, we cannot guarantee that we can save you."

"Tesia and I have tried various methods, but none of them worked. The Seagod'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 young man showed a happy smile, and he said, "You guys have 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 softly.

Tesia untied the conch wrapped around his waist, he blew, and immediately a merman swam in. Tesia ordered: "Take him out, but he can't leave the island."

Ai Rui went out for a stroll with the shark.

Jiali was going to go back to sleep, so he waved to Dongzai, "Zaizai, we're going back."

At this time, Luoxi asked: "Little mermaid, can you stay and play with me for a while? I still have a lot of pearls here, I'll let you play with them."

There are so many pearls, Dongzai is a little excited.

Jiali pointed at Kyle, "You guys watch him, don't let him slip away."

Luo Xi smiled, "Don't worry, Tesia is very powerful."

Jiali was noncommittal, it was really good to be able to draw with Ai Rui, but it was not as good as him.

After Jiali and the others left, Luoxi took out a huge blue pearl from the bedroom. Such a big pearl was rarely seen even in the Yate Sea area. "Little mermaid, this is for you to play with."

Dongzai turned to look at Han Zhan, "Brother."

Luo Xi was surprised, "You are his brother?"

Han Zhan said "Yes", "Cubs can play, brother is here to watch." As he spoke, he leaned against the wall, keeping his eyes on the little mermaid.

"I won't hurt him," Luo Xi spread her thin and weak hands, "I can't hurt him like me."

Dong Cub swam up to Luo Xi, "Let's play ball."

"Okay." With a smile on his face, Luo Xi gently flicked the fish's tail, and patted the pearl back.

Their cheerful laughter came from time to time in the palace.

Tesia didn't know when he leaned over, he sighed silently, "I haven't seen Wang so happy for a long time."

"What's your relationship with him?" Han Zhan asked suddenly.

Tesia paused, "You can see it."

Han Zhan lowered his eyes, showing that he didn't care, he was just asking casually.

Just because of Luo Xi's weak state, he can become the king of a sea area, and he wants to know who is behind him helping him.

"Luoxi and I are partners."

Tesia only said one sentence, but didn't speak again.

After playing for a while, Luo Xi gradually became exhausted, her originally pale cheeks turned red, and her chest heaved slightly, obviously tired.

"My lord, it's time for you to rest."

Dongzai said with concern: "You have a good rest, I will play with you next time."

Luo Xi was still a little bit reluctant, he held Dong Zai's little hand and said, "I'll ask Tecia to bring you sweet sauce fish at night, you'll definitely like it."

"What is sweet sauce fish?"

"Sweet sauce fish is fin fish filleted and coated with a sweet sauce. We would go to the island every morning and pick the sweet fruits that grow on the trees, mash them into jam and spread them on the fish fillets. , soft and sweet jam, paired with fresh and tender fin fish fillets, it is especially delicious.”

It sounded delicious, and the cub was a little hungry, and began to look forward to the arrival of night.

"By the way, there are more." Luo Xi took Dong Cub and swam into the bedroom.

There is a row of wooden boxes in the corner of the bedroom, filled with pearls of all sizes, the big ones are like blue pearls, and the small ones are only the size of a thumb. They look like pearls formed from tears dropped by sharks.

Luo Xi said embarrassedly: "This is all mine... If you don't mind it, you can play with it."

Seeing that 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 them away."

It was a pity for Luo Xi, but soon he cheered up, "Well, next time you come to play, I will treat you to eat sweet sauce fish."

After swimming out of the dorm, Dongzai held Blue Pearl in his arms, he looked back from time to time, and waved his small hands to Luoxi.

Han Zhan pinched the tips of Dongzai's ears on purpose, "Zaizai likes him that much?"

Dongzai rested his chin on the pearl, "He is such a good fish." He not only played ball with him, but also treated him to eat sweet sauce fish.

He will be fine.
