fairy tale villain interpretation task

As soon as the little mermaid opened her mouth, An Yunze couldn't help but froze for a moment.Although she only said one sentence briefly, she showed off her beautiful voice perfectly.Her voice seemed to have a kind of magic, which made people involuntarily fascinated.

An Yunze closed his eyes and shook his head to wake himself up.He put down the material in his hand and asked, "Who are you?"

This female mermaid looks very young, maybe fifteen or sixteen years old.The long golden hair with slight curly hair is loosely scattered behind the back, a brilliant golden fish tail is slowly swaying with the water waves, and streamers of light flash across the scales, presenting a magnificent and strange beauty.Her face was fair and delicate, with a little bit of cute baby fat, and her emerald green eyes were like the tenderest leaves that had just sprouted, shining with pure and beautiful light.Biting her cherry lips with her white teeth, she looked at An Yunze hesitantly, and said, "I...I only talk to ghosts and witches."

Hearing this, An Yunze picked up the half-processed materials and a knife, and said coldly: "Then you can go out."

The little mermaid flinched, as if frightened by his tone, glanced at him again uneasily, seeing that he had no intention of talking to her at all, she couldn't help feeling a little dazed, not knowing what to do.She was the youngest and prettiest child in the family and was doted upon by her sisters and grandmother, not to mention the other mermaids.Therefore, the little mermaid who had never been treated so coldly was stunned for a moment.

After a long time, she said cautiously again: "I tell you it's okay, but you want to make me see the devil."

An Yunze cut a few handfuls of purple seaweed without raising his head, and said casually, "Say it."

The little mermaid said: "My name is Ariel, and I am the sixth princess of the mermaid clan. I came here to ask the ghost witch to cast a spell on me."

Hearing this, An Yunze paused the hand holding the knife, and raised his head in surprise.

He once discussed with Adrian about the protagonist of this story. Since their last mission failed, there was no hint at all this time, and everything was guessed by the name of the world.This world is called "The Daughter of the Sea". Adrian once speculated that the protagonist might be a high-status woman among the two intelligent races in the sea, so is it possible that this is the mermaid princess named Ariel?

An Yunze took a quick look at her and thought it was very possible.Thinking of this, the look in his eyes softened quickly, and he asked her with a faint smile: "How did you find this place?"

Ariel seemed to be affected by his mild expression, she relaxed a little, and replied in a low voice: "My sister told me...that there is a ghost here who can help me realize my wish."

Since moving to the land of the mermaid clan two or three years ago, An Yunze has met some mermaids who came to him to buy potions one after another. It is no longer as unusual for mermaids to know him as it was at the beginning.I don’t know if it’s because the mermaid tribe is more human than the sea monster tribe. Their emotional intelligence is relatively high, and the “ghost witch” is useful to them, so they never mention his identity as a sea monster, and they never mention him The existence of the sea monster has been told to the Kraken family.But all in all, he is not a popular existence after all. An Yunze never thought that one day a mermaid princess would come to him for medicine.

An Yunze put down the things in his hand for the second time, swung his fish tail and swam to Ariel.Ariel opened her eyes slightly, she seemed a little nervous, she couldn't help but backed away a little.

An Yunze's current image is not good.

The traces of the seal had spread from his back, and now his two arms and chest were covered with black lines, looking weird and ugly, exuding an ominous atmosphere.Thinking of this, An Yunze stretched out his hand to untie his black hair, which had turned into a long braid. The black hair fell loose and barely covered it, and said, "I'm a ghost, what do you want?"

Ariel let out a soft "ah" and blinked her eyes.In her imagination, the ghost witch should be a very old old woman who lived in a gloomy cave, with an ugly and terrifying face, and a strange tone of voice when she spoke. She did not expect it to be such a young and handsome sea monster.It was rare for her to hesitate—is this siren reliable?

However, he had no other choice but himself.

Ariel gritted her teeth, raised her head again, and said firmly: "I want to ask you to turn me into a human!"

The look of surprise flashed away in An Yunze's eyes. He kept smiling and said calmly: "Have you thought about it? My deal here requires a price."

Ariel asked: "What do you want? I have a thousand-year-old black pearl. If you want it, take it."

An Yunze shook his head, "I don't need black pearls."

Ariel said: "I also have a pure gold lyre."

An Yunze still shook his head: "I don't want a lyre either."

Ariel frowned and asked, "Then what do you want?"

The smile on the corner of An Yunze's mouth deepened, and he seemed a little strange for no reason. His eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice, "I want the voice you volunteered."

Ariel was startled, her emerald green eyes widened suddenly: "What?"

"I want your voluntary voice, Your Highness." An Yunze repeated verbatim, "As a reward, I can give you a potion that will turn your fish tail into two pillars like a human's." like legs."

When Ariel heard this, her eyes lit up instantly.

"But!" An Yunze stretched out a finger, and gently pressed it against the little mermaid's lightly opened lips, adding: "Walking with such legs, you will feel like walking on the tip of a knife, and every step will hurt extremely."

Ariel recalled the two shapely and slender pillars under the waist of her beloved prince and the human girl she saw hiding behind the rock. She knew that human beings called them "legs". Legs", she can go ashore freely to find the prince, and no longer have to worry that he will be afraid of her appearance and treat herself as a monster.

The fervent love and longing for the land world quickly overcame Ariel's fear of losing her voice and pain. She slowly raised the corners of her mouth, showing a beautiful smile, and said softly, "I agree."

An Yunze nodded in satisfaction, and stretched out his hand to signal Ariel to shake hands with him, "The oath is fulfilled. Come here to find me in three days, and take what you want."

Ariel nodded vigorously, turned around elegantly and nimbly, quickly swung her tail and disappeared.

Three days later, late at night.

The little mermaid quietly swam out of her big shell bed, lightly kissed each sister's forehead as farewell.She swam outside her grandmother's palace, hesitated for a moment, and decided to go in for the last time to take a look at the kind old lady who loved her, after all, she was about to say goodbye forever.

She gently opened the door, intending to take a look and leave, but the old grandmother was not asleep, but was leaning against the coral reef next to the door, watching her quietly with her eyes open.Those dark green eyes, which were very similar to hers, were still so gentle and kind, but now they added a bit of sadness.

Ariel was taken aback, her face turned pale, and she subconsciously felt guilty.Her old grandmother was the wisest sage in all the sea, she never doubted that.

Did grandma already know about her deviant plan?

The mermaid queen mother slowly sighed, raised her hand and beckoned to her little granddaughter, signaling her to come to her side.

Ariel swam obediently, lying on the coral reef, resting her head on her arms, and looked up at her.

The grandmother gently stroked her soft blond hair and said, "You have made up your mind to go to the human world, haven't you?"

The little mermaid didn't speak, but blinked slowly.

"My child," sighed the grandmother, "you are a mermaid, born to belong to the sea. The human world is beautiful and magical, but also complex and terrifying. You have never left home, where you are going It’s so far away, grandma doesn’t worry.”

The little mermaid's pupils are astonishingly green, as if there is a clear pool in her mouth.She trembled: "But grandma, I really love the prince."

The grandmother looked at her fixedly, and said: "We mermaids have no souls. When you become a human, if no human beings love you enough to share their souls with you and marry you, you will become a mermaid." The foam floating on the surface of the sea will forever dissipate between heaven and earth. Even so, do you still have to go ashore?"

Ariel said without hesitation: "Grandma, I love him more than my life."

Grandma didn't speak for a long time, just stroked her hair one by one.Ariel saw the time passing by little by little, and the appointment time with the ghost witch was about to arrive. Her heart rose, and she patted her grandmother's hand lightly, "Grandma, I should go."

The Mermaid Queen Mother paused and sighed again.Looking at her little granddaughter who had grown up, she felt very complicated.

Back then, she was the first mermaid to tell Ariel about things beyond the sea.She has told every descendant about the legend about the land, but among so many little mermaids, only Ariel has shown her curiosity and longing for the human world and life.

She didn't know, if she hadn't mentioned those things to Ariel, she wouldn't be where she is today?

If Ariel doesn't know that there is land and humans, can she be a happy and innocent mermaid princess on the bottom of the sea with peace of mind, instead of going ashore to take risks?

Time cannot be turned back, and the old grandmother will never get the answer.

"Go, child." She finally said, took Ariel's hand, sent her to the door, and then reluctantly let go. "You have chosen your own destiny, I only hope that you will not regret it in the future."

Ariel held back her tears, and finally kissed her grandmother on the cheek, then turned around abruptly, swung her fish tail quickly, and swam out of the Sea Palace where she had lived since she was a child.She swam so fast that she didn't dare to look back at all, for fear that if she looked back, she would lose the courage to put all her eggs in one basket.

When she finally arrived at the ghost witch's cave, An Yunze had been waiting for a long time.He held a delicate small crystal bottle in his hand, which contained more than half of the light golden liquid, which hung viscously on the wall when shaking.

"You're late, princess." An Yunze said flatly.

The little mermaid gasped for breath, "I'm very sorry..."

An Yunze waved his hand, "Forget it, let's complete the deal quickly."

As he spoke, he put the small crystal bottle upright on the stone table, and made a crisp "crack".Ariel's gaze followed the vial, and she couldn't help reaching out to touch her throat.

"If you want to go back on your word, it's still too late." An Yunze finally reminded.

The little mermaid closed her eyes and shook her head severely.

An Yunze took out a small shell, opened it, and turned the opening towards the little mermaid. After saying something in his mouth, a thin ray of light blue light floated out of Ariel's mouth, and went straight into the shell. In the small shell, the small shell trembled, and the lid was closed with a "click".

Ariel opened her mouth, but she found that she could no longer utter a sound, so she raised her hand to touch her throat again.

"Here, this is what you want, please use it after reaching the shore." An Yunze put the small crystal bottle into Ariel's hand and instructed.

The little mermaid held the crystal bottle tightly, and finally nodded at him, without stopping for a moment, she immediately swam to the surface of the sea.

An Yunze raised his head and watched her leave. He didn't return to the cave until she was completely out of sight, and took out another small crystal bottle from the hidden place, which was exactly the same as the one given to the little mermaid just now.

He put the small bottle and the small shells on the stone table together, the light gold and light blue light complement each other, very beautiful.

An Yunze looked at them, exhaled a long breath, and murmured: "Finally they are all gathered."
