The cannon fodder doesn't want to accept his fate [Quick Transmigration]

"Speaking of which, this mermaid was brought back from the East China Sea!" Peng Zong narrowed his eyes, lost in memory.

"Although he is stupid and silly, he is good looking. I wanted to keep him for a while... Who would have thought that the court would change the next day!" When mentioning this, Peng Zong's expression suddenly changed. Gritting his teeth fiercely, he said, "It's in vain that this king respects him with strict formulas and gives him the status of being under one man and above ten thousand, but he still hasn't satisfied his wolfish ambition!"

Lu Ya lowered her head and said nothing, just rubbing Peng Zong's blood-clogged arm that had been bound for a long time.

Peng Zong felt refreshed, and the anger in his heart subsided a little. He half-closed his eyes and hummed angrily: "Pinch the other arm too."

"Yes." Luya changed her arm, and as she squeezed, she heard Peng Zong suddenly say in her ear.

"Does that mermaid listen to you very much? You try to trick him to come to see me."

Lu Ya was shocked in her heart, and suddenly exerted force on her fingers.

Peng Zong frowned in pain, "Hiss...do you know how to pinch?"

Lu Ya hurriedly kowtowed to apologize: "Your Majesty, forgive me, this servant did not do it on purpose!"

Peng Zong just wanted to say the words of reproach, but then he thought: "Forget it, get up."

"Thank you sir." Lu Ya straightened up and continued to rub Peng Zong's shoulders and back.

Peng Zong looked at the handsome but timid maidservant in front of him, and took out a trick to coax the women in the harem and said in a gentle voice: "Lv Ya, how about you bring Xing Ran over here? After it is done, the king will never forget Your kindness."

"Your Majesty... what did you ask me to bring him here?" Lu Ya bit her lip and said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that you want...to eat his flesh?"

"Of course not, how could this king be such a vicious and brutal person as Li Jue." Peng Zong squeezed the light from his eyes and smiled bitterly, "You have also seen that this article is now a prisoner and will be lost at any time." Life, just before dying, remembering that after being rescued from the sea by Xing Ran, I haven't been able to thank him properly."

"I don't know if there will be another chance in the future..."

Peng Zong shook his head, sighed, and described it as extremely downcast.

"Your Majesty, don't say that, you will definitely make a comeback!" Lu Ya was about to cry again, "I also want to promise you to bring Mr. Xing Ran over..."

"But there are soldiers taking turns guarding outside the prison, and..." Luya paused, and said in embarrassment, "Young Master Xing Ran can't do without water..."

"It's nothing, if my king remembers correctly..." Peng Zong looked at the cold and muddy sewage in the water prison, and said quietly, "He's almost an adult."

**

At dusk, Li Jue finally had time to visit Xing Ran in his busy schedule.

Pushing open the wooden door of Xingyuan Pavilion, there was no such a beautiful figure beside the Nuanyu Pool, Li Jue walked a little further in, only to find that the little thing in the pool was sinking to the bottom of the water with its back facing him, leaving him floating like seaweed Long blue hair blooming in the water and a long and beautiful fish tail.

Li Jue evoked a smile, and raised the things in his hand: "Little mermaid, I'm here."

The mermaid's caudal fin moved slightly, and a string of bubbles emerged from the bottom of the water, but still refused to look back.

Li Jue: "Little Mermaid? Star Burning?"

Xing Ran: "...huh."

Li Jue had no choice but to put the cakes and food on the jade table by the pool, lifted up his robe and entered the pool.

The man is also very good at water, and the dusty and elegant white clothes are floating with the waves caused by the movement of the body in the water, and countless tiny bubbles are stirred up around his body.

Soon, he swam to the mermaid and stopped.

The long black hair of the man and the long blue hair of the mermaid went from probing each other to further teasing each other in the water, entangled with indescribable charm and ambiguity.

Li Jue stretched out his finger and poked Xing Ran's fish tail, but the latter reacted violently, standing up and leaping from the bottom of the water to the surface.

Xing Ran's face was a little red, and he looked at Li Jue with big wet eyes: "You... why are you touching my tail..."

"Finally you're willing to talk to me?" Li Jue also surfaced, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I heard that a tiger's ass can't be touched, why? You can't touch your fish's tail either?"

"It's not that I can't touch it, it's just... being touched by you is like being struck by an electric ray, and my spine is numb..." Xing Ran Bian Pian Zui added, "I wouldn't do this before."

Li Jue smoothed the long hair in front of Xing Ran's forehead to the back of his ears, revealing his pure and beautiful face: "Maybe it's because you are about to become an adult."

"That's it..." Xing Ran looked down at his fish tail, "So my tail is so sensitive because it's about to differentiate into human legs?"

Li Jue followed Xing Ran's gaze, transitioning from the translucent and dreamy gauze to the junction of the delicate white and sea blue scales at the waist, and the next second, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze.

The waist and crotch of the little mermaid lacked a fish scale that was not obvious, and his eyes were keen to catch the rice-grain-sized reddish texture in the shimmering blue.

Looking there, Li Jue's eyes gradually filled with frost.

"Does it hurt?"

"What?" Xing Ran was stunned by his unreasonable words for a moment, followed his cold eyes, and then understood what he was referring to.

"This...it doesn't hurt anymore."

Feeling Li Jue's emotions, Xing Ran was puzzled and flustered, he reached out and grabbed the man's sleeve: "Li Jue...what's wrong? Could it be...are you angry with me?"

Li Jue: "..."

"No."

"I don't believe it," Xing Ran reached out to touch Li Jue's eyebrows, "If you are not angry or dissatisfied with me, then why are you frowning?"

The mermaid's cool fingertips covered Li Jue's eyes, and a pair of water-cut gilt pupils looked at him with concentration and concern. At this moment, Li Jue suddenly wanted to embrace Xing Ran in his arms.

Thinking of this, he did the same.

Xing Ran was caught off guard by him, and he heard Li Jue's gentle and clear voice in his ears.

"What about the moment the scales are pulled out? Doesn't it hurt? You are obviously the most afraid of pain... Xing Ran, let alone a piece of your fish scale, it is just a strand of hair. I don't want you to feel the slight pain."

"I want to take you to taste every sweet in the world, and I will never be angry or dissatisfied with you."

Li Jue lowered his voice, as if confessing sincerely, "No matter who you are, where you are, or what you do... I just hope you can be safe and happy, and have a smooth life."

The embrace of human beings is too warm, Xing Ran wanted to absorb more, so he simply turned his back on the customer, with his hands open around Li Jue's waist, and his head involuntarily rubbed against the man's arms.

"Hmm..." Xing Ran raised his face contentedly, "Li Jue, what were you muttering just now?"

Li Jue: "..."

"I didn't mutter anything." Li Jue smiled helplessly, then took Xing Ran's hand and swam to the shore, "Go and taste the food I brought you."

Xing Ran nodded frantically: "Yeah!"

When he came to the edge of the pool, Li Jue carried Xing Ran to sit on the edge of the pool, picked up the food box on the jade table, and sat side by side with him on the edge of the pool.

The moment the food box was opened, the tangy aroma made the mermaid wag its tail happily. The first thing that catches the eye is the golden and crispy small yellow croaker wrapped in flour, and the bottom is a plate of fat and attractive oil. Braised prawns, with two packs of candied fruit and a bottle of sweet fruit wine next to it.

Li Jue massaged the yellow croaker a few times with chopsticks, and the fish bones were separated from the fish flesh.

He put the deep-fried yellow croaker with its bones removed into a clean small plate and handed it to the well-behaved mermaid, who took it with bright eyes and a face full of happiness.

"On the contrary, I think your name is Xing Ran, not because of the miraculous phenomenon when you were born, but because of something else."

"Oh? Why?" Xing Ran asked vaguely while eating delicious food.

"Because of your eyes." Looking at each other, Li Jue said, "Xing Ran's eyes are brighter than the stars in the sky."

Xing Ran blinked: "Li Jue, are you complimenting my good looks?"

Li Jue nodded.

Xing Ran swallowed the last mouthful of fish, and said very solemnly: "Li Jue is also pretty, my father said that human beings are extremely ugly, but I don't think so, Li Jue is obviously pretty!"

"Prettier than me!"

Receiving a hundred-fold praise, Li Jue's peach blossom eyes curled up in a smile, and he skillfully peeled a shrimp and put it in Xing Ran's mouth.

It's just that the latter ate and ate, his smile slowly disappeared, and his head shrugged.

Li Jue suddenly panicked: "What's wrong? I made it...is it not to your liking?"

Xing Ran shook his head, his voice was muffled, "Li Jue."

Li Jue: "Huh? I'm here, what's wrong with you?"

Xing Ran raised his head, his eyes were slightly red: "You are so kind to me...just like my father."

Li Jue: "..."

The little mermaid sniffed: "I miss my father."

"Hey, don't worry." Li Jue rubbed his head and sighed, "I will send you back in three days, to the outlying islands in the East China Sea, your hometown."
