bride as a paranoid mermaid

The mermaid bit off the toffee, but it still didn't hurt Xia Shenlan's hand at all.

The first time is raw and the second time is cooked, one person and one fish eat two toffee happily.

"Okay, I can't eat any more. If your health is fine tomorrow, I'll give you another meal." Xia Shenlan crumpled the candy wrapper and threw it into the trash can, "The porridge is almost ready, I'll go and wake Jiang Chenxing up gone."

The mermaid stretched out her hand, but couldn't catch Xia Shenlan's clothes.

He looked at Xia Shenlan motionlessly until Xia Shenlan's figure disappeared in the door change. He dived into the water and bit the candy wrapper that he had spit out earlier, supported the edge of the fish tank with both hands, and spit out the candy wrapper.

Xia Shenlan entered Jiang Chenxing's room, opened the curtains, and the sunlight came in, making the room instantly bright.

"Jiang Chenxing, wake up, get up and eat."

Jiang Chenxing was a light sleeper, almost before Xia Shenlan finished speaking, he had already opened his eyes, his eyes were so clear that he didn't seem to have just woken up from sleep.

"Little Brother Xia, morning."

"morning."

"Are you still going to sea today?" While talking, Jiang Chenxing slowly sat up from the bed.

"Don't go out, I have to clean the fish tank today, and the rest of the time...do you want to go to the sea? I'm busy looking for clues to Grandpa during this time, and I haven't gone to the sea with you for a long time."

"Catch the sea?" Jiang Chenxing's voice raised a few degrees, "Okay."

"Go after dinner, you get up first."

Xia Shenlan walked to the door, suddenly remembered the mermaid outside, and stopped, "By the way, didn't I bring something new back last night..."

"Ah."

"Be prepared mentally, I've put him in the fish tank, he's a big guy."

"Didn't you say you won't grow up?"

Xia Shenlan turned her head and blocked the door, thinking about telling Jiang Chenxing about the mermaid first.

"I met him in the sea yesterday. He was seriously injured. If we don't save him, he might die. So I brought him back first."

"Oh, what did you bring back? Do I know you?"

"I know you know it, but you must have never seen it with your own eyes before."

"Huh? What is it?"

Xia Shenlan slowed down her voice: "Mermaid."

"Huh?" Jiang Chenxing blinked, as if some strange emotion flashed by, but it was only for a moment, and soon turned into a look of doubt and self-doubt, "Am I still awake? "

Xia Shenlan thought that he was wrong just now, and explained: "You woke up. It's really hard to believe, isn't it? I was also surprised when I saw him yesterday. I thought mermaids only existed in fairy tales. It's a golden mermaid, very beautiful, I think you should like him."

"I want to go and see."

"Let's go, it's in the fish tank outside, remember not to get too excited." Xia Shenlan opened the door, led Jiang Chenxing out, and told him uneasy: "I still don't know how aggressive he is, so don't worry about it yet." Get too close, wait until you get familiar with him and then try to approach him slowly."

"it is good."

When they came to the fish tank, Xia Shenlan originally stopped two meters away considering Jiang Chenxing's health was not good, but Jiang Chenxing seemed to be bewitched by something, and walked a few steps forward.

Jiang Chenxing looked at the mermaid, with his back to the light, his amber eyes became somewhat dull.

The mermaid faced Jiang Chenxing's direction, completely different from Xia Shenlan's appearance, with both hands in an obvious attacking posture.

Undoubtedly, if Jiang Chenxing walked into his attack range, he would strike without hesitation.

Xia Shenlan was a little worried, and walked up to Jiang Chenxing, showing a protective posture.

Jiang Chenxing said obsessively at this moment: "It's so beautiful——"

Xia Shenlan was stunned for a moment, not willing to pull him away.

Jiang Chenxing is not in good health, so he can only be trapped in this small room, and sometimes he has to be accompanied when he goes out to catch the sea, and he rarely shows such obvious interest in anything.

Jiang Chenxing raised his head, the light in his eyes seemed to be illuminated by the golden scales of the mermaid.

"Little Brother Xia, he is really beautiful. The myth is not deceiving. Do you know the myth about the mermaid?"

"Huh? What myth?"

"The sea goddess, the ancestor of the mermaid, won a bet with Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. According to the prior agreement, Aphrodite endowed the descendants of the sea goddess with extraordinary beauty, which can make all human beings on the earth intoxicated. He is so beautiful..."

As he said that, Jiang Chenxing even stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to touch the mermaid.

The mermaid bared her teeth and let out a threatening growl.

Xia Shenlan had no choice but to stop Jiang Chenxing's hand, "Don't touch him yet, he doesn't look...not used to it."

"Okay." Jiang Chenxing withdrew his hand in disappointment, but still stared straight at the mermaid, "I really hope to meet him one day."

"Okay, there will be such a day, you go to eat first."

Xia Shenlan dragged Jiang Chenxing away, "Go wash up, it's time for dinner, if you are not allowed to wash up and you refuse to eat, it's hard to serve."

"It's the first time I saw a mermaid. It's amazing. I didn't expect mermaids to really exist..."

"Yeah, it's amazing." Xia Shenlan responded perfunctorily, and pushed Jiang Chenxing into the bathroom, "Hurry up, I'll get the rice out first."

Back in the kitchen, Xia Shenlan cleaned up the bowls and finished two bowls of porridge. When she was free, Jiang Chenxing's behavior just now flashed across her mind. She always felt that Jiang Chenxing's attitude towards the mermaid was a bit strange. Is it his illusion?

It should be an illusion, Jiang Chenxing has always been very interested in mermaids, he has collected half a cabinet of books about mermaids, that's why he is so excited to see mermaids.

That indescribable excitement and greed was probably his illusion.

Jiang Chenxing washed up unhurriedly, just in time for dinner.

His body is like paper, and he can be dizzy all day if he doesn't eat on time, but even if the sky falls, he can't change his original rhythm.

Xia Shenlan is sometimes very helpless towards his habit, but she has to admit that only in this way can Jiang Chenxing live as long as possible, which may be considered a good thing.

Without eating or sleeping, the two finished their breakfast in extreme silence.

Let's not mention how the mermaid stared at Jiang Chenxing during the whole process. Anyway, Jiang Chenxing himself didn't show any discomfort, so Xia Shenlan just let them go.

It will be good to get familiar with it later, he told himself in his heart.

Today is a small low tide, and the golden period of the whole low tide is just a few hours, Xia Shenlan didn't even have time to finish eating, so she packed up her things and was ready to go out.

It was rare to catch up with the sea like this, and it also happened to be a sunny day. Xia Shenlan was in a good mood.

"It's just a small low tide today, and there are not many people. Let's walk along the beach and see if we can find any leaks."

"Okay." At this time, Jiang Chenxing behaved extraordinarily well-behaved.

It should be said that Jiang Chenxing has always been very well-behaved, only when he met the mermaid just now, he rarely lost control.

The two walked slowly along the beach, the soft sand would sink down as soon as they stepped on it, which made people feel very comfortable.

No one mentioned the mermaid at this time.

"Eh? Asparagus?" As soon as the low tide exposed the beach, Xia Shenlan found the goods, "Come on, go grab some, go back and eat cold salad."

"it is good."

Jiang Chenxing couldn't walk too fast, but Xia Shenlan had already adapted to his speed, and the two came to the side of Asparagus at the same time.

Xia Shenlan didn't move, she stood there and waited for Jiang Chenxing to pick up the asparagus.

The two of them raced the sea together since they were young, which can be regarded as a small tacit understanding that they have cultivated. Let Jiang Chenxing experience simple tasks, and when encountering physical tasks that require shoveling, Xia Shenlan will do it again.

After collecting the asparagus, the two continued to walk along the beach.

Seeing a small sandbag, Xia Shenlan stopped immediately, "It looks like a cat's eye shell."

Jiang Chenxing pushed aside the sand, and it turned out to be a cat's-eye snail lying on the sand, which was as big as the palm of his hand after absorbing enough water.

When you pinch the snail meat, the excess water will come out sizzlingly, which is more decompressed than pinching the small plastic bubble filled with anti-pressure.

Jiang Chenxing happily brought the deflated cat's eye conch to Xia Shenlan, "It's so big."

"This head is not bad, let's go, and go to the front to have a look."

The most common ones on the beach are all kinds of cat's eye snails, crabs lying on the sand, and some sea rainbows washed ashore.

Xia Shenlan did find a sea rainbow, but unfortunately it was too small, there might be no meat left after cooking it, so she had to give it up.

After walking for more than an hour, the bucket was already filled with half a bucket of seafood, but none of them were big things, except for the largest asparagus, some cat's eye snails, meretrix meretrix, and two half-sized swimming crabs.

Xia Shenlan thought that she might not be able to pick up any good things today, Jiang Chenxing suddenly pointed to a direction closer to the sea, "Xiao Ge, that seems to be a conch."

"Go and have a look."

When the two walked over, it was really a conch, half the size of a palm.

Jiang Chenxing picked up the snail, the expression on his face quickly lost, "There is no more meat." "See if there is any octopus in it." Xia Shenlan also squatted down and reminded casually.

Jiang Chenxing turned the conch over and held it hard, revealing the octopus' glistening legs.

"There really are octopuses."

"Look, what does it mean to lose a horse and know it's a blessing?"

Xia Shenlan proudly took the conch, and was about to dig out the octopus, when she suddenly saw something like rice grains floating in the water at the conch's mouth.

He clicked his tongue, "Wouldn't it be laying eggs?"

"Huh? Have you laid eggs?"

Jiang Chenxing also came over to take a look. Xia Shenlan pulled the octopus out a little bit, and she saw a piece of white eggs.

"It's really laying eggs...Life is really ups and downs..."

I thought I picked up a conch, but it turned out to be empty; I thought there were octopuses in it, but it happened to be laying eggs; this is no luck.

Xia Shenlan put the conch shell back and buried it with sand, "Look ahead, the sea water should be rising soon, and we have to leave in a while."

There is a saying that there is only one good luck, if you miss it, it will be gone.

The octopus with eggs obviously exhausted Xia Shenlan and the others' luck, and they walked for a while, not to mention the conch octopus, even the cat's eye conch didn't come across a single one, and the two sea anemones were returned. Digging out one, the situation can be said to be quite tragic.

"Let's go, it's time to go back, let's go to the market to buy something later, do you have anything to eat?"

Xia Shenlan is very sober, don't underestimate the waves on the seashore, if you are not careful, you will be swept under them.

The seafood he found is not enough, why can't he go to the market to buy it?

"Go and see first, I don't know either."

"Row."
