Su Huaijun

"Where is the merman you mentioned?" Tianquan was very curious. He had only read about merman in books.

I changed a water-proof bead for him, and pulled him to jump into the river from a corner.

He panicked, fearing that he would drown in the water.

I said: "There are so many mortals in Chang'an City, I can't hack a way out, I can only wrong you and swim with me."

"I...I don't understand water."

He thought he would choke on the water, but when he opened his mouth, he found it was the same as on the shore, without any discomfort.

"Give me your hand, and I'll take you there."

We went downstream and saw the Yishui Palace, which was not as gorgeous as the Dragon Palace.

Tianquan asked curiously, "Is this the residence of the sharks? Why does it look like a big conch?"

"This is the temporary residence that Qinxi transformed into a conch shell. They usually live in coral reefs. I'll take you to see it when I get a chance."

"Sister Qinxi."

"Come in."

Tianquan whispered: "It's really nice."

"The mermaid's voice is beautiful, and it would be even better if he sang."

There was no water in the water palace, so Qinxi learned to walk on both feet in it.

Seeing me go in, she asked me, "Su Huai, look, how am I doing now?"

"Unsatisfactory."

"When I practice again, I can go ashore and walk."

Tianquan touched me quietly, and asked in a low voice, "Why is it different from what is written in the book?"

Indeed, Qinxi's outfit was too weird.She clipped two seashells to the seaweed decoration on her head, and took a pinch of seaweed for a tail.

I laughed and said, "Sister Qinxi, are you pretending to be a cat demon?"

"It's a fox." She showed me the pinch of seaweed and said, "Nine-tailed fox."

"I advise you to stop dreaming. My second brother's eyes can grow into the sky, so how could he fall in love with you. Besides, can you wait for my second brother for tens of thousands of years?"

Mermaids are not immortals, not demons, they die at about four or five thousand years old, how can they compare with immortals.

Qinxi is not a mermaid who has become a fairy. I call her sister just because she is a good friend of the eldest sister.

"I also practice immortality. When I become an immortal, I will naturally be able to wait."

Qinxi patted the wall of the water palace twice with his hand, and immediately water poured in, filling the entire water palace.

I stretched out my hand to hold Tianquan to prevent him from being carried away by the current.

Qinxi entered the water, her legs turned back into fish tails, and she swam around freely.

"It's still so comfortable."

She swam around us twice, poked Tianquan curiously, and asked, "Is this a mortal?"

"Yeah." As soon as I said that, she ran away.

Tianquan was very puzzled.

I explained: "It's normal for a mortal to capture a merman to refine a longevity candle, and she's afraid of you."

I walked over and whispered to Qinxi: "He is not an ordinary person, he is the reincarnation of Wenquxing. You know Wenquxing, he is the best friend of the second brother in heaven."

"Shangxian Su Zong came to Chang'an because of him?"

"I thought you were looking for elder sister, but you came here with second elder brother."

Qin Xi complained: "So what if I came to look for him, I left without even meeting him."

It is said that sharks are deeply affectionate, and they only recognize one person from life to death, and the second brother didn't give an explanation, so I feel sorry for Qinxi.

"Well, how about I take you to play?"

"Mortals are fierce and cruel, so I don't want to go up."

"If you don't go ashore, you're on the water. I'll bring a boat over here."

Qinxi can swim so fast in the water, we can't match it at all.

She saw me dragging Tianquan and swimming slowly, so she said to Tianquan: "Give me your hand."

Tianquan hesitated a few times, but he didn't have the nerve to reach out.

Qin Xi directly grabbed his hand, and swam out a long way to the surface of the water.

I went to the shore and rented a small boat, and greeted the two of them to come on board.

Qinxi sat on the bow of the boat and sang, her fishtails turned into legs, swinging on the water, she looked like a girl playing in the water, attracting the attention of others.

I took Wuwei Xiao to accompany her.

"I seem to have heard of it." Tianquan murmured.

He closed his eyes and listened carefully, but couldn't remember where he heard it.

There is only the intermittent flute sound in my ears, it wasn't me who played it, it was the song he played before he jumped to Zhuxiantai.

"In the future, if you hear me play Wuwei in heaven, you will know that I am thinking of you."

"It turned out that I was being sentimental, so how can I care who he wants to be with."

"Afterwards, I will be reincarnated in the world, don't ask me to meet you again."

Obviously there is nothing, these words seem to pop out of my mind, and I don't know who said them.

He opened his eyes and looked at me in fear, feeling uneasy for no reason.

"Su Huai, look, is that the fox in your cave?"

When I saw it, Huasi really ran out to buy candied haws.

Yes, it's very close to my house.

I rowed the boat to the shore and shouted, "Huasi, come here."

I waved to Huasi, and he didn't forget to hide the candied haws behind him when he ran over.

I said, "Did you sneak out?"

He nodded.

"I won't rob you."

He took it out with confidence.

"Is this mortal food?"

Seeing that Qinxi was interested, I gave Qinxi Huasi's candied haws and said, "Try it."

Huasi muttered, "My lord is lying."

I gave him the purse and said, "Don't act like I'm bullying you. Come on, I've already bought candied haws for you. Remember to bring the purse back to me."

"Yes." Huasi took the money and ran away.

Qin Xi said in satisfaction, "It's really sweet."

This candied gourd is really miraculous, not only bought Huasi, but also bought Qinxi.

"Look, it's not a bad trip."

"Yeah." Qinxi licked sips, mortal food was very novel to her.

I looked back at Cheon Kwon and found him staring at me the whole time.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"

"No. I should go back."

He ran off the boat in a panic, as if he was afraid of something, and accidentally bumped into Hua Si who was coming back.

"Feel sorry."

"It's okay. Young master, your candied haws." Hua Si left before finishing his sentence.

Huasi glanced at him puzzled, ran over and asked me, "What's wrong, Mr. Li?"

"I don't know either." I was also very puzzled, it was obviously fine just now.

I looked down and saw Hua Si holding three candied haws, and said, "Little greedy ghost."

Hua Si explained: "This is for you and Young Master."

"You still have some conscience."

I took one, and it was really good, sour and sweet.

Qinxi fell in love with mortal food once he tasted it, and went ashore by himself at night, but the hawker selling candied haws had already returned home.

A boatman saw Qinxi dragging a fish tail when she came out of the water, so while Qinxi was still on the shore, he took the boat pole and knocked her unconscious.

Those dignitaries like these rare gadgets the most, he thought, such a beautiful mermaid will surely fetch a good price.

Where should I sell it? Of course, it is the General's Mansion that has just finished a wedding. As long as there are a few nice words, maybe I can sell it for more money.

When Qinxi woke up, she had already been packed in a wooden barrel and sold into Li's residence as goods.

"What is the master thinking? I don't know what use it is to buy such a thing."

A smoked jade has just entered the mansion, and another fish has arrived, Madam Li frowned.

The second aunt said: "I heard that sharks are good at weaving. The silk they weave is as thin as a cicada's wing and extremely smooth. How about letting her do the weaving?"

"Hahaha, weaving cloth? How much is this cloth worth?" Yan Yu walked over with a smile and said, "It is said that weeping pearls are much more valuable than cloth."

Mrs. Li's face was very ugly, obviously she was extremely disgusted with Yan Yu's behavior.

Second Aunt is on Mrs. Li's side, so naturally she won't talk to her.

Yanyu winked at the maid who served her, and the maid walked towards Qinxi and twisted her arm hard.

Sharks don't cry easily, Qinxi feels pain, but she doesn't cry.

Mrs. Li and Second Aunt covered their faces and snickered when they saw this.

Yanyu lost face, so she told the maid to twist her hard.

But Qinxi didn't shed any tears, on the contrary, it was her cry of pain that made the servants around her feel pity.

Yanyu called the maid back and whispered a few words.

After a while, two servants came and took Qinxi out of the barrel.

Yanyu took the whip from the servant girl and slapped Qinxi's fish tail hard, removing one of the scales.

It is very painful for fish scales to fall off, Qin Xi protects her tail, but she can't stop everything.

Mrs. Li looked at Yan Yu's ruthlessness, and wanted to give them a bad blow.I really don't know what is good or bad.

The second aunt persuaded: "After all, the master bought this. If it is broken, who will be responsible for it later."

In fact, Yanyu has selfish intentions, the beauty of this mermaid makes people jealous, she doesn't want to leave such a disaster in Li's residence, waiting for General Li to change his mind.

Qin Xi's eyes were red, and she was about to cry in pain.

Tianquan hurried over after hearing what the servants at home had said.

"Stop, stop quickly." Tianquan was in a hurry, and went directly to grab Yanyu's wrist.

"What are you? Someone, pull him away."

The servant girl timidly said: "Third Young Master, don't make things difficult for us."

"When did the Li family allow you to lynch?"

"Since she is not a human being, how can she be considered a lynching." Yan Yu shouted, "Pull him away."

The new concubine is always favored, and the servants saw that Mrs. Li and the second concubine did not stop them, so they bravely tried to pull Tian Quan away.

Tianquan couldn't stop Yanyu, so he did it himself.

"you......"

"Don't cry, don't cry. If you cry, she will only beat you harder."

Seeing that the whip fell on Tian Quan, Mrs. Li couldn't help but said: "Enough is enough, don't beat me anymore. The master has the final say on how to deal with this shark."

During the wedding banquet, the third young master was not allowed to attend the banquet, Yanyu thought that her status in this family was higher than Tianquan, so she was confident.

She probably didn't know that if it was another occasion, her fourth aunt might not even be qualified to show up.

I thought about what Tianquan was like yesterday, as if he was frightened by something, and I didn't see him going to Linyin Pavilion, so I went to Li's mansion to look for him.

When I saw this scene on the eaves, I immediately flew down and grabbed the whip.

"Who are you?"

"The one who came to teach you a lesson."

I tore the whip from her hand and whipped her casually.

For the sake of her being a mortal, I didn't dare to do my best, but this time I had to hit her two or three times.

Her cry was so miserable that Second Aunt was so frightened that her eyes widened.

On the other hand, Mrs. Li was very calm and even smiled.

I turned around to look at their injuries, and Qinxi burst into tears.

The weeping bead rolled all the way to the feet of General Li and Mrs. Li who came over.

The servant picked up the weeping bead and showed it to General Li.

General Li just glanced at it lightly, and said in a deep voice, "Who can explain to me what's going on?"
