Mermaid Throne

The familiar pressure covered the whole body again.

Tao Yiran slowly opened his eyes, looking at the shining sea.The scenery seen from the sea to the sky is particularly beautiful. This is a feeling of freedom that is difficult for human beings to experience. There are countless fish shuttling around, and occasionally a huge black shadow swims overhead, bringing a shadow, and then Quickly return him a piece of blue that transmits the sun.

Tao Yiran found that he could breathe, so he stretched out his hand cautiously, wanting to touch those small fishes that he ignored, but found that his fingers passed through the school of fishes without touching anything.

It was a dream.

He chuckled, amused that he had such a magnificent dream.

"Do you like it?" Someone asked softly in his ear.

Tao Yiran turned around in surprise, but didn't see anyone. "Well, it's very beautiful." He thought that even this voice was part of a dream, so he nodded frankly without pretending to be in his own mood.

Finally understand why the earth is called "the blue planet".The real blue is not looking down on the world from above, but looking up from the ocean at this world that seems to be out of gravity.

Tired of watching, he suddenly lowered his head and looked curiously at the deep blue under his feet.

"Don't go down. You can't take it." The voice advised gently.

"I want to see." He thought, anyway, this is also a dream, and he will not die anyway.He has dived countless times before, but he has never reached that seemingly mysterious depth.

Compared with the beautiful coral reefs, he wants to know what kind of environment those beautiful creatures live in.

But the invisible man stopped him.The hands and feet seemed to be imprisoned, and they couldn't go down no matter what.

"Rongxuan," Tao Yiran said the person's name, "I know it's you, let me go down."

"...There's nothing to see there." The voice was a little annoyed, obviously troubled by his stubbornness.

"I want to go on." Tao Yiran finally understood that this was not his dream, so he asked the empty place, "What are you afraid of?"

"Actually, you can't see anything." The water slowly condensed into a human shape. Even if the boy with long hair floats in the water, he is unbelievably beautiful. live there."

"But purebred mermaids are fine." Tao Yiran picked out the meaning of his words, "The more mysterious the place, the more I want to see it. Anyway, this is just a dream, isn't it?"

Rong Xuan pursed his lips, feeling that he had made a mistake.

Give him a mermaid dream, and want to create a beautiful, free, and hopeful mermaid world for him, but you don't want this maverick human being to like to go to the worst place.

"Huh?" Tao Yiran raised his eyebrows, waiting for his answer.

"...I'll take you there. You close your eyes." Rong Xuan had no choice but to give in.

"Don't whitewash all this. Even if this is a dream under your control, I can act on my own. This time, you will protect me." Tao Yiran's lips twitched slightly, and his free body slid towards the deep sea.

Rong Xuan frowned.Dreaming itself is an energy-consuming thing, not to mention that in order to create a beautiful underwater world, he also spent a lot of energy maintaining the scenery of the upper ocean, but this person insisted on going deep into the sea.

That is the place he has no time to care about, the most real deep sea.

He was a little flustered, and hurriedly followed.

The figure of the young man appeared thinner in the deep sea, and the increasing pressure slowed down the speed of the dive. Finally, at a place of more than 100 meters, the young man stopped.

If it wasn't for the faint light from Rong Xuan's body, maybe they couldn't even see each other.

Rong Xuan opened his hand and swiped a few times in the water.Slowly, fluorescent powder particles spread around, illuminating the surrounding scenery.

Tao Yiran looked around at the strange fish that he had never seen before, the jellyfish that were as brightly colored as poisonous creatures, and various creatures that were attracted by the fluorescence, and he was speechless for a while.

Here is the real seabed, where the most beautiful mammals on the planet—pure mermaids—live.

"Do you like it?" This time, Rong Xuan's question became less firm.

Tao Yiran even forgot to answer. He stared blankly at the creatures that were squeezed by the sea water and couldn't be called beautiful at all, and couldn't help but ask, "How did you come to be born in this kind of place?"

Dark, cold, oppressive, weird.Even in his dreams, he seemed overwhelmed by the solitude around him.Standing in the middle of the darkness, he looked back at Rong Xuan, with disbelief in his eyes: "How do you live in such an environment?"

Only now did he understand why mermaids came to land from the sea to compete with humans for the right to live on land.

What is precious is not only sunshine and temperature, but also the sound of life.It's as quiet as hell here. How can a mermaid who has mastered the language endure this kind of loneliness that cannot communicate?

Rong Xuan pursed his lips, not wanting to explain.He was a little frustrated. He wanted to show this person the beauty, hoping that this human being would accept the life of being a mermaid more quickly, but now this guy recklessly broke into his own memory, as if he was hiding in the The failed test paper that I was willing to show to others was suddenly revealed.

Tao Yiran didn't get an answer, so he noticed his expression and smiled immediately.

"Hey, what's the point of embarrassment?" He swam over, raised his hand and rubbed his head——Damn, this guy is half a head taller than himself, this movement is obviously not as smooth as before, "My family was also very poor, When it was the poorest, when it rained, Erbai would take a washbasin to collect water in the house with me. My mother said, don’t pour the rainwater, and you can take a hot bath if it boils..."

The hand was suddenly grabbed by the other party, Tao Yiran blinked, and saw the mermaid boy said awkwardly: "My home is not on the bottom of the sea. Although I was born in the shape of a fish, we were born on coral reef islands, surrounded by The most abundant resources. Who is as poor as you? This is just the safest area for our mermaids. Only here, in a place that is difficult for humans to reach, is our final home for mermaids."

The massacre of human beings is a pain that their race will never forget.If it were not for the protection of the deep sea, they would not be able to multiply and grow, thus regaining their hegemony over the ocean.

However, even though the ocean is the home of the merman's genes, thousands of years of interbreeding have made them accustomed to the land world with sunshine, land and flames.

This is a kind of contradiction hidden deep in the heart of the mermaid.Perhaps, they do not hate humans, but envy.

Envious of these fragile species that can indulge in the finest elements of the earth.

Thinking of this, Rong Xuan suddenly froze.

Holding Tao Yiran's hand tightened unconsciously, he suddenly felt that he was despicable and shameless, and felt that once Tao Yiran knew what he was thinking, he would never forgive himself.

"...Being a mermaid... is better than being a human?" He suddenly lost confidence.

Tao Yiran looked at him strangely: "Your words are as meaningless as asking who is better between a tiger and a cat. What's the comparison? A cat can be a pet for food, but a tiger can? A tiger can hunt, but can a cat? Their survival goals are inherently different."

Rong Xuan pouted, his self-confidence dropped to an all-time low: "Then you hate being a mermaid?"

"What the hell, is what Ji Yunzhi said true?" Tao Yiran's eyes widened, "I will become a mermaid?!"

"...Of course it was a joke." Rong Xuan came back to his senses and quickly comforted him.

"If you lie to me, you will not grow tall." Tao Yiran cursed with a serious face.

"..." Rong Xuan stared at him for a while, then forced himself to nod with great difficulty.

Fuck, it doesn't matter if you don't grow tall, your current height is enough to push you down to the ground and work hard.he thought bitterly.

Maybe it was because the brain supplements were too aggressive, Tao Yiran suddenly felt the sea water around him surge up, and he felt suffocated again in an instant.

"Ugh... (Rong Xuan, you pig)!!" The young man still yelled while swallowing a few mouthfuls of sea water.

Beside the bed, Ji Yunzhi looked in surprise at Tao Yiran, who was sleeping in Rong Xuan's arms, opened his eyes suddenly, kicked the boy away while coughing violently, and when the cough finally stopped, he picked up his clothes again. The leader asked viciously, "Is it really a joke?"

Rong Xuan just came out of the dream, his mind was still in chaos, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, feeling a little lost to Tao Yiran who didn't accept this possibility.

"...It's a joke." Even a glimmer of hope has been extinguished, this human being is really too determined.
