After becoming a mermaid, the group of friends exploded

Cheng Jing sank into the water, shaking his hands unwillingly, but it had no effect at all. The salty seawater squeezed into his body from all directions, filled his nasal cavity, and poured in from his flustered opened lips. , the air in the lungs was squeezed clean, and the throat became sore.

Consciousness gradually blurred, his body was as heavy as lead, and finally, he lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, Cheng Jing felt the forceful water covering his body in a daze, and the pain in his throat disappeared. He subconsciously opened his mouth to inhale, and suddenly felt the cold water flow Into his mouth, it was so cold that he woke up with a start.

He coughed a few times, opened his eyes, and was stunned by the scene in front of him. He realized that he was still in the water, and no one came to rescue him. He watched a few fish swagger past his eyes, and A few small fish were beside his neck, and their wagging tails brushed against his skin, giving off a numb itching.

water?fish?Cheng Jing's heart shrank into a ball. Since no one came to save him, does that mean he is dead?Now that he can breathe in the water, he has actually become a water ghost?

It is said that people will become ghosts after death, and a drowned ghost like him can only find a substitute to be reincarnated.

Thinking of the fact that he has become a ghost, Cheng Jing's mind goes blank. He is only 20 years old this year. Did he die so young?He hadn't lived enough, but died inexplicably like this, he was really unwilling!

Cheng Jing's body was paralyzed, and he lost his strength for a moment. His eyes were empty, looking at the various fish swimming past him from time to time.

After a long time, he suddenly cheered up and thought, no, even if he has already become a water ghost, he can't be a water ghost in this kind of place, first catch up with that boat.

Yes, to catch up with that boat, ghosts are afraid of the sun, as long as you stay attached to the bottom of the boat, and then quietly board the boat at night.The more Cheng Jing thought about it, the more excited he became, the dull air dissipated, he stood up, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

At this time, he was on a small reef, covered with soft sandstones and blue seaweed, his pale hands were propped on it, which was particularly conspicuous.

He paused, and slowly stretched his hands out in front of his eyes, and saw that there was a transparent layer between the five fingers of his hands. The slender fingers were covered with a layer of white gold fine scales, and the hands extended upwards. Cheng Jing's heart sank for these scales that looked like fish scales but were much smaller than fish scales. He raised his hands above the sky, and the sun made the sea above him extremely bright. He could see the webbed claws of his hands more clearly. He looked inhuman, but because he held it up, the wide cuffs slid down, revealing his entire arm. From the back of his hand, these tiny scales extended to the place where the clothes could not be seen. The entire arm , are all these things.

Cheng Jing lowered his arms and fell silent. He stood up and began to undress.

Although he is not smart enough, he thinks a lot, and almost immediately thinks of the strange novel when he sees the abnormality on his body.

Now he had a terrible guess.

With all his clothes off, he took a deep breath and found that when water entered his mouth, there was a slight sound of water in his ears. He thought he was a ghost before, but he didn't realize it for a while. It was obvious that the sea water had been entering his body all the time. , but he did not feel the slightest discomfort, he paused, stretched out his hands to feel around his ears, and felt some thin marks on his neck below the ears, and with the seawater he sucked in, the fine marks squeezed out like living things With the thin water, Cheng Jing's conjecture was slowly confirmed. He put down his hands, closed his eyes, and opened them after a long time. He mustered up the courage to look down, and his eyes were full of dense scales.

Cheng Jing's heart sank heavily. In some places, the scales were very thin and small, and the color was very light, while in some places, they were light black. Obviously, now his upper body is covered with platinum and small scales, but his waist and abdomen are covered with tiny scales. Wrapped in pale black scales, extending all the way to his ankles.

You don't need to look at him to know that he must look ugly now, but he is thankful that he has no tail, just scales. Cheng Jing doesn't know why he looks like this, but it's better to be a monster than to die Well, he can still see people in this state of concealment, thinking of this, Cheng Jing suddenly reached out and touched his face.

He was relieved by the smooth touch on his face, at least his face could still see people.

He picked up the clothes and put them back on one by one. Wearing clothes in the water is obviously not a good choice. The clothes are of excellent fabric, but they are too close to the body in the water, which hinders Cheng Jing's movements, but Cheng Jing doesn't want to be naked .

Cheng Jing still can't swim, he is now about ten feet below the sea surface, although it is bright under the reef, but Cheng Jing dare not go down the reef.

After pondering for a long time, Cheng Jing decided to try to swim up.

He stretched out his webbed hands and made a paddling movement. The sea water was easily moved to both sides by him. At this moment, a strange feeling came to his heart. He felt inexplicably that he could swim.

This feeling came out of nowhere, but his heart was raised high. The reef he was on was very high, and there was some distance from the sandy ground below. He closed his eyes, kicked his feet, and jumped down. , while quickly paddling the sea water with both hands.

I don't know if his body has changed. He feels his body is very light. He seems to have a premonition in his heart. He opened his eyes, knowing that he had swum.

Cheng Jing laughed, very happy, he swam up slowly and got out of the sea, he glanced at the sun, estimated the direction of the boat, and swam in that direction.

While swimming, he thought, it would be just right to go back at noon, after noon, Zhengran might get anxious, and it would be bad to find him and have conflicts with those people.

-------------

Zhao Zhengran was sitting by the window, looking at the book in front of him absent-mindedly. He hadn't turned this page for a long time.

Cheng Jing is the one who sticks to him the most. If he still drops the food box, he should have come back long ago, but it's been so long...

He shifted his gaze from the book in his hand to the window, staring at the calm sea, lost in thought.

After a long time, Zhao Zhengran looked away, but he couldn't read the book anymore.

He put down the book in his hand, straightened his clothes, got off the bed, and walked out.

He went straight to Cheng Jing's room. He knew that it was unlikely that Cheng Jing would stay in his room, so he was not there, so he went to the kitchen again.

However, before he got to the kitchen, he saw a food box in the corridor rolled down to the ground, just hitting under the railing, and the appearance of the railing next to him made Zhao Zhengran's heart tighten.

He strode forward, picked up the food box, and recognized it as Cheng Jing's food box, and the broken railing beside it...

Zhao Zhengran didn't dare to think about it anymore. He was holding the food box and his whole body froze. He knew that Cheng Jing couldn't swim. If he really fell and no one rescued him, he would almost die. This corridor is all dry, without any wet marks that come up after falling into the water...

With hope, he immediately found the soldiers ahead. Some of them searched for people around the ship. Most of them lowered the wooden boat and searched in the water. When they heard the news that Prince Jing's son might fall into the water, all the soldiers on the ship exploded. Hastily ordered to go down.

The family members who were so lively and not too serious also knew about it. After being surprised, they went about their affairs indifferently. Only the boy said he was sick and went back to the room, and brought the dancer back to the room. Others murmured that he was amazing. I didn't think much about holding women to have fun even when I was sick.

After a while of searching, it was confirmed that Cheng Jing was not on the boat. Zhao Zhengran's face turned pale when he heard the news, his body went limp, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

The faces of the other soldiers were also grim. Everyone knew what would happen if Prince Jing died, so they could only pin their hopes on searching in the water.

But everyone knows that this hope is slim. People who can't swim fall into the water for so long, and they will undoubtedly die.

Zhao Zhengran asked about the time, and roughly figured out the place where Cheng Jing fell into the water, so he asked someone to drop anchor, found a boat, took people with him, and went back to the time.

Zhao Zhengran didn't believe that Cheng Jing would really drown, he didn't believe it, he felt that Cheng Jing was still alive and it was impossible to die.

He wants to find him, if he is really dead...it doesn't matter if he turns into a corpse, he wants to bring him back.

However, when he thought of the possibility of Cheng Jing's death, his breathing became difficult and his face became extremely pale. He stretched out his hand and slapped himself, refusing to think about that possibility.

Seeing him like this, everyone on the boat couldn't say a word of comfort, they all had heavy and ugly expressions.

Along the way, Zhao Zhengran divided the people into three groups. The first group was plunged into the sea, and the other group was replaced after the search. If Cheng Jing really fell into the sea with this kind of intensive search, it would be absolutely impossible for Cheng Jing to escape. , but approaching the place Zhao Zhengran estimated, there was still no sign of Cheng Jing.

Zhao Zhengran thought of a more cruel possibility. After Cheng Jing drowned in the sea, the smell of the corpse attracted the sea beasts in the sea. The sea beasts searched for them and devoured them all...

Zhao Zhengran suddenly couldn't stand upright, and sat down slumped, his eyes turned red, and everyone's expressions became more and more serious. The possibility that Prince Jing's dead body might not be left fell heavily into their hearts.

What confirmed this possibility was that some soldiers fished up a half-cut belt and some scraps of fabric from the sea.

Zhao Zhengran recognized at a glance that the belt belonged to Cheng Jing, and the red blood stains on the belt had not been washed off by the sea water, showing what happened to its owner.

The half of the belt fell from Zhao Zhengran's hand immediately. His whole body trembled, his eyes turned red, and he murmured: "I don't believe it... I don't believe it... I don't believe it!"

As he said that, he stood up, stood by the side of the boat, and was about to jump off, but was cut unconscious all of a sudden, his body softened, and he was helped back to the boat.

"One has already died, but another one cannot die."

"What should I do? Prince Jing's son is dead, do you still want to go to Zhongzhou?"

"Report to the Holy Majesty first, and then find the nearest pier to stop the boat."

"Prince Jing's son is dead, and we are not doing enough to protect him. Maybe this is the last time we go to sea."

"........."

Everyone was silent, they looked at the endless sea, as if they saw their own destiny.
