There's a mermaid in my bathtub

After finishing the childish show, I returned to the cave, and immediately saw mussels full of raw fish and pearls scattered all over the place.

No need to guess, this must be the food that Nanli found for him before the "gathering incident".

The conditions are not good, but Nanli's sashimi is barely acceptable, and it can be seen that he has exhausted his thoughts.

As soon as he landed on the shore, he broke free from the embrace of the mermaid. After eating and drinking, he had no appetite for raw meat. The palm of his hand inadvertently touched the cool master, and Jin Sheng's heart was sweet and greasy.

Even so, he pushed all of them aside with a stiff face, monopolized the whole stone with his back to Nanli, and sat cross-legged.

"What's the matter, Jin Sheng?"

Not answering.

Jin Sheng's face was still red, he had already started to regret that he slapped Nan Li, and even more regretted that he only slapped Nan Li.

Who made this fish always go into heat everywhere regardless of time and place!

The resistance of sea water is high, and mermaids are naturally thick-skinned. This slap will not hurt Nanli. Besides, for this group, slapping the face is no different from slapping other places. There is no dignity in slapping the face.

Jin Sheng Qi Nanli made too intimate gestures in an inappropriate scene, but the latter put on an innocent face, as if he deliberately wanted to encourage the sweet and sour anger in human hearts.Nanli knew that Jin Sheng was very shy, but he didn't use the way of a mermaid to proclaim his possession in front of everyone.

So... what did he do wrong.

So strange.

"Jin Sheng?"

"Don't talk yet..." Nanli was not allowed to go ashore, so that guy swam half a circle to the other side and forcibly met his gaze. Jin Sheng lay down on the long-lost stone bank dejectedly. Facing the mermaid waiting for a response.

So annoying!In an instant, he understood the hardships of long-distance and transnational relationships. In terms of three views and habits, he was even worse than those of other races.

She covered her face from shame and anger, but couldn't restrain the rising temperature of her cheeks.

Jin Sheng couldn't describe that feeling, but this was the first time he "declared" a relationship with his beloved in such an open manner.

Once, when he decided to come out, he was immediately chased away by his only family member, which made him completely lose his family affection. Although most of his peers or juniors understood and blessed him, more people gave him strange scrutiny.Today, even if they are facing a group of mermaids, being with Nanli still feels like they have gone through a lot of hardships to achieve a positive result.

He has met people who are not good, knows people unknown, and has only a handful of emotional experiences, so he is naturally unable to resist the repeated offensives of Nanli's affection.

Keeping his back to Nanli, the sound of water coming out suddenly sounded behind him, making Jin Sheng's body stiff, and then, the cool and smooth skin of the mermaid gently embraced his shoulders, caressing him as if there was nothing, touching his chest, The heart beats.

"I won't say, you rest."

The scorching pinna hit the soft, soft lips, Nanli had to pay attention to what he did, even if Jin Sheng was really tired, he couldn't fall asleep now.

Finally, unable to take it any longer, Jin Sheng turned around and met the eyes of the mermaid who was lying with him. The distance was too close, and he was at a loss for words, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Nanli..."

"kindness."

"Thank you..." The black eyes blinked and blinked, not knowing where to look, the bad mermaid wanted to catch his sight: "Thank you for what?"

"Thanks...all." Uneasy sliding his Adam's apple, he finished speaking, and immediately got a kiss from the mermaid.

"Cough cough... Can I, can I ask Bai Yulin?" Afraid that this guy was going to be in heat again, Jin Sheng hurriedly put his hands between his chest and Nanli's chest, and decisively changed the subject.

His last doubt about the silver fish scale, since Nanli had only lied to him once, how to explain the strange existence of the fish scale?He wanted to know why the appearance of silver fish scales made Nanli's expression suddenly change.

"I'll tell you everything I want to know, didn't I?"

The mermaid's hand passed through Jin Sheng's dripping black hair, and her slender fingers tirelessly played with it, "But first, tell me where that fish scale came from."

"It was... after you left that day, a strange guy gave it to me. I looked for it just now, and he was not in the mermaid group. He... said strange things, he looked like you, his eyes were green, and his tail was almost All bald, with half of its fin missing."

"Oh?" Nanli jokingly raised his eyebrows after reporting all the information truthfully, and the mermaid lowered his head thoughtfully, "Then what did he say?"

"He said there was a way to send me back and let me leave with him."

Immediately answered, Nanli's upright hand that was taking advantage of Jin Sheng's body froze, and was immediately hugged into his arms.

"Ah... what's the matter with you?" The hug came inexplicably, so Jin Sheng could only embrace it back, lying obediently on Nanli's chest, "I haven't finished talking, but he also told me that you lied to me to use My heart revives the silver-tailed mermaid, because I... I look a lot like him, but I..."

"You are very similar."

"?"

Kissing Jin Sheng's forehead, the mermaid's voice was as clear as ever, implying something: "But Jin Sheng, did I really trick you to come here?"

"...Okay, okay, I came by myself, I volunteered, I took the initiative to kiss..."

The damp and cool encroached on the warmth, and while complaining, the mermaid robbed her lips.Perhaps the precepts to be observed before were too strict. After the "seal" was lifted, Nanli especially loved the activity of kissing and kissing, wishing to swell Jin Sheng's mouth with kisses.

Mumbling and pushing the mermaid away, before he could stand up, he was pulled down again. Jin Sheng looked serious. Anyway, no matter how serious the topic he discussed with Nanli, the mermaid would always be turned into the sky by the mermaid: "Didn't you want to tell me, can you be more serious?" ?”

Stretching out his hand to cover Nanli's mouth, that guy really kissed him again.

"kindness."

Nodding, and not letting go, Nanli was not satisfied until Jin Sheng obediently lay down beside him again, "The silver-tailed mermaid you mentioned was the previous leader, but he has been dead for a long time, how could he be resurrected with your heart?"

"Isn't it possible? I thought you could..."

"Bringing the dead back to life? Jinsheng, even if it's important and can bring the mermaid back to life, it's just a heart. How can it do anything?"

Jin Sheng froze for a moment, then nodded half-understood.This world is too wonderful for him, and his cognition can always be easily broken, not to mention that there are mermaids who are interested in his heart again and again, so it is understandable to think too much.

Rubbing the soft hair on the back of Jin Sheng's head, Nanli continued: "Okay, Jin Sheng, what you look like is not that fish, but another human being who was captured."

"Another captured...human being?" Seeing the cold eyes of the mermaid in front of him, like unofficial anecdotes and a sense of mystery, he also condensed his face, "Where is that person? Is he still alive? Can I meet him? ?”

"Don't worry." Pressing down on Jin Sheng who was eagerly looking for a companion, Nanli spoke in a leisurely manner: "I don't know what happened a long time ago, but the mermaid who captured her is the owner of the scales."

"The two worlds should be separated forever by the ice, and the mermaid's 'guardian' task is also very easy, but the temperature of the sea outside has risen inexplicably, the ice has melted, and there are cracks, so that those things in the sea are 'outside'. The world' is interested. Our mother's nest is here, and the female mermaid's reproduction must be carried out in it, so we can only confront each other for a moment."

"I can't remember how long ago, the two worlds were together, so everyone knew that the other side of the passage was better for survival. Mermaids also have legends, saying that there are monsters in the deep sea that rely on the warmth of human bodies to survive."

When Nanli said this, he narrowed his eyes, like a "weird uncle" who tells ghost stories to children. After all, he is the only human in this sea.

With a light cough, Jin Sheng interrupted the mermaid's words, and Jin Sheng shook off the association with the "monster" in Nanli's mouth, and continued to ask: "Then why did you arrest people in the first place? When it comes to offering sacrifices, it shouldn't be for monsters, right? Could it be... ...Is it your so-called passage? This is no different from our live sacrifice of pigs and sheep. It is a futile feudal superstition. It is impossible to throw a human heart into the crack and it will disappear..."

"meeting."

Nodding in response to Jin Sheng's bunch of nonsense, the latter froze in place, he really said casually without any evidence, how could he expect such far-fetched words to come true?

"The human heart is very important. Its temperature can 'heal' the channel. In fact, it doesn't have to be the heart, as long as you put a living person in it and let it feel the unique human body temperature. If it can grow and heal, Restoring as before, the group can also restore peace."

"Ice...will grow due to heat?"

"It's not heat, it's human body temperature, and only human body temperature."

Tapping on the key points, and giving an example: "I brought you back before, and when I passed that passage, the ice grew."

"The sacrifice is also very simple. I can wait in the passage, wait for the ice to seal it again, and then leave at that moment. This will not only solve the troubles of the mermaids, but will not cause harm, right?"

After understanding the so-called sacrifice process and the principle of freezing the tunnel, Jin Sheng suddenly smiled, thinking that the perfect solution was right in front of him.Unexpectedly, his ideal plan was immediately denied by the mermaid "no".

"why?"

"It's so simple, how can it be called a sacrifice? If the tunnel is completely dead, you can never go back. And the heat it needs to grow is enough to suck up your body temperature. What's more, the ice inside grows irregularly. It's fast and sometimes slow, and the risk is great, do you think I'll let you go?"

Certainly not.

Swallowing his saliva, the excitement really made him overly self-righteous.If it were so simple, the problem would not be left to this day.

He is willing to believe what Nanli said, but the reality of this world is too unimaginable, and it will take time to fully accept it.

Letting go, Jin Sheng moved his body to the outside, and changed to a more comfortable position, not too close to Nanli, "Then... what about the human and silver-tailed mermaid before? How are they?"

The way the mermaid brings back humans is quite special. Unless you drag people into the book, it's not so easy to kiss them on land.

The combination of one man and one fish resembled him and Nan Li very much, except for the role of the heart, Jin Sheng was curious about their final relationship and results, but Nan Li, who was rarely talkative beside him, became silent.

"Is it convenient to say?"

"No, the two of them entered the tunnel together, and the silver-tailed mermaid was frozen inside. As for the humans, they disappeared."

"Disappeared?" I repeat, Nanli is not the first person to go out to capture sacrifices for the peace of the group. The experience is too similar, and Jin Sheng's heart is chilled, and his voice trembles unconsciously: "The mermaid... dead?"

"Totally dead."

——It turns out that mermaids can die too.

Mermaids exist in reality and must be untouchable gods, just because they are too powerful and have too many "impossible" for human beings. They are used to taking care of them, and almost forget that death is also accompanied by them at any time.

"Are you surprised? Don't forget, the owner of the silver scale died in the ice. I told you that he died a long time ago. You shouldn't be so surprised, right?"

Speaking of that unpleasant past, only one mermaid was frozen in the tunnel, and the other human naturally escaped and left smoothly.

The one-sided tragic ending made people unhappy, and Nanli took the mermaid's side again, so his tone naturally changed: "What's the matter, Jin Sheng, are you scared?"

"No, no sound." I understood the final fate of the man and the fish in a few words, but I didn't know what they had experienced in detail.

However, he seems to have heard more than once about the entanglement between humans and fish.

The tragic story of be made the atmosphere heavy. Jin Sheng got up, put his arms around Nan Li, took a deep breath on his neck, and said seriously: "You are my fish."

"En?" The cold male voice responded shallowly, Nanli looked down at Jin Sheng, and the dark blue in his pupils settled.

"What you just told is someone else's story. I'm different. I... will be responsible for you. No matter what happens in the future, I will never leave you and run away."

With his eyes wide open, Jin Sheng's gaze was exceptionally firm, his attitude was extremely serious, his arms around Nanli were clenched into fists, and he made up his mind, and what he promised, he always kept his promise.

The four eyes met each other for a long time, and finally, as if affirmed, Nanli hugged him into his arms, and kneaded the back of his neck with his slightly cool palm. Then, the mermaid led the people back to the stone bank, and let Jin Sheng press on him: "I want to too much."

"What, Nanli, I'm not joking, I..."

"I know."

"I'm not the same as that fish." Therefore, our ending must be different.
