Picked up a deep sea lord

On the plain, Ye Jian fished while walking.

Yu is wronged and wronged, and Yusheng has nothing to love.

After a while, he suddenly raised his face and said, "Brother is not allowed to touch it!"

Ye Jian: "Oh."

He lowered his head and smiled at Luo Ling.

Luo Ling: "..."

Ye Jian looks so pretty when she smiles.

Well, then, let him feel wronged again.

The little mermaid buried her face in Ye Jian's chest without saying a word, and remained motionless.

The fish tail is icy and cool, and the scales are as smooth as running water.

The caudal fin is also easy to touch, like slippery silk.

Ye Jian was in a happy mood and touched the fish's tail very happily.

If it is the tail of a big fish, it will definitely be easier to touch!

But if you touch it, the mermaid will definitely stick to him and prevent him from moving.

So it is better to touch the tail of the small fish.

After a while, Ye Jian finally got enough of the fish, and her gaze rested on the wound on the upper right side of the little mermaid's tail, where the reverse scale was missing.

Poke Luo Ling lightly.

Luo Ling paused for a few seconds, then raised his head slowly, slowly, with dark and resentful eyes.

Ye Jian calmly ignored the resentful little eyes, and said, "Does your wound still hurt recently?"

Luo Ling shook his head.

After coming to land, his wound really didn't flare up much.

Then he began to twist and twist, as if he wanted to change back.

Ye Jian immediately held him down: "Don't change, I still want to touch!"

Luo Ling: "..."

The little mermaid was even more resentful.

But he dared not say a word.

Ye Jian's fingertips fell between the intact scales around Ni Lin. Unlike before, she stroked very carefully and gently.

Five years later, the wound still hasn't changed, and there is no sign of healing.

He still remembered the appearance of picking up this dying little mermaid from a backwater lake in the wilderness.

Although Luo Ling never told him, Ye Jian knew that the person who stripped his scales back then must have paid the price long ago.

but……

Ye Jian's eyes darkened slightly, but her voice was still gentle: "I will definitely heal your wound."

He remembered that Nomi said that mermaids have a long lifespan, but the scales are slow to heal. For Luo Ling, it is like a slow poison, which will greatly shorten his lifespan.

He wished the mermaid lived a little longer, and a little longer.

Live well.

Luo Ling gave a soft "um", but there was no joy on his face, and his ruby-like eyes were full of concentration.

Even if the wound heals, he has a full mermaid lifespan... If Ye Jian can't be by his side, what's the point.

After reuniting with Ye Jian, he has sent people out to find a way to share his life with others, but there is no clue yet.

He didn't want the so-called long and endless life, unless Ye Jian spent it with him.

If there is no way for Ye Jian to share his life, one day after that, Ye Jian will really leave him in an irretrievable way... Then he will leave with Ye Jian.

No matter what, he didn't want to be alone, let alone Ye Jian.

He will accompany Ye Jian, even if he falls into a dark sleep.

The little mermaid in her arms started to move lightly again, Ye Jian thought he was going to grow bigger again, and just wanted to pat his head - Luo Ling had silently buried his cold face into Ye Jian's shoulder, feeling the warmth of this person.

Ye Jian: Clingy little fish.

Lovely.

His raised hand still fell on Luo Ling's head, gently rubbing the soft black hair of the little mermaid.

The two continued to walk forward, and after that they encountered some strange beasts, all of which were dealt with by Luo Ling.

Not long after, Ye Jian stopped slightly, and vaguely caught some voice.

Turning over a small hill, the howl of pain became clearer.

A young man rolled down the hillside, covered in dust, rolling on the ground in pain, his limbs twitching, as if he would faint at any moment.

It was a second infection, and someone Ye Jian knew - Ike from Chen Rao's expedition team.

The black silk thread was hooked between Ye Jian's pale fingers, and jumped out in an instant, restraining Ike who was writhing and struggling.

Ike couldn't move anymore, Ye Jian walked over with Luo Ling in his arms, and saw a dark spar the size of a grain of rice forming between his eyebrows.

Ye Jian leaned over slightly, her pale fingers pointing at Ike's forehead.

The spar disappeared in a blink of an eye, and it didn't even last for more than a second.

The black silk thread dissipated, and Ike also slumped and stopped struggling.

After a few seconds, he twitched, as if waking up from a nightmare, and opened his eyes.

"Ye... Mr. Ye?"

Just after waking up, Ike felt weak all over his body, and his breath was like a spring.

"Am I going to die..."

Just as Ye Jian was about to answer, Ike coughed violently again, raised one hand tremblingly, and stretched out towards Ye Jian tremblingly.

"I didn't dare to say it before, but since I'm about to die, then...there is one thing I must say..."

"Mr. Ye, actually... Actually, I have always liked you very much..."

Luo Ling: "???"

Ye Jian: "..."

Luo Ling in her arms suddenly became agitated. Ye Jian pressed the little mermaid, remained silent for a few seconds, and said to Ike, "You won't die, I've already cured you."

Ike: "...huh?"

Ye Jian said very politely: "You are a good person, thank you."

Ike: "..."

One minute later, a figure hurried over, it was Chen Rao.

She was holding a jug full of clean water, and just called out "Ike", when she looked up, she saw Ye Jian standing beside her with a little mermaid in her arms, her eyes lit up.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Ye, we meet again!"

Chen Rao sneaked another glance at Luo Ling.

Hey, this mermaid has become smaller again, and her face is so scary.

Get away, get away.

Chen Rao walked around Ye Jian and handed the kettle to Ike.

However, she found that Ike's condition was very poor, and she was a little surprised immediately: What's wrong with you? "

I don't know if it was because of weakness, but Ike's voice was full of sadness: "I just lost control suddenly and almost killed myself... It was Mr. Ye who saved me..."

Chen Rao was startled: "What?"

She looked at Ye Jian again, and Ye Jian's eyes were calm: "I told you before, the second infection."

Chen Rao: "..."

Chen Rao froze in place. At this moment, she was not only shocked, but also at a loss.

"Just now...he wanted to drink water, but his condition was not right, so I put him here and went out to find water for him."

Like a child who did something wrong, Chen Rao was full of self-blame, and her word order was a little confused.

"I didn't expect that after leaving for such a long time, he would, he would..."

Ye Jian: "Wait."

While speaking, Chen Rao's complexion became more and more ugly, and something seemed wrong.

Ye Jian's eyes were slightly focused, and between Chen Rao's brows, a strand of black silk thread was wandering, as if it would condense into tiny crystals at any moment.

So he raised his hand and tapped on Chen Rao's forehead.

Chen Rao felt a flash in front of her eyes, and the uncomfortable feeling that had been pestering her just now suddenly dissipated, and her vision became clear.

She hugged her head, stunned for a moment, and said in a daze: "Did I also..."

Ye Jian: "Well, but it's better now."

Chen Rao fell silent.

It turns out that Mr. Ye... really has the ability to purify pollution.

No wonder he was able to cure those who had been infected twice, and he could also say with such certainty that the condensate and crystal contained pollution.

...Then, Mr. Arthur, the savior she has believed in for so many years...

Ye Jian found that there was only one person who was sad just now, but now there are two people.

It's just that he doesn't know how to comfort these two people, or in other words, their sadness cannot be relieved by simple comfort.

He had no choice but to pat Luo Ling's head and stand beside him quietly holding him.

Not long after, Chen Rao took a deep breath, raised her face as usual, and turned to Ike: "How do you feel now?"

Ike: "Okay, much better..."

Chen Rao nodded: "Then let's go, let's quickly find the rest and take them out of here."

"Fortunately, they haven't absorbed the condensation crystal yet."

Ye Jian looked at Chen Rao's face and said, "You can go to Tang Bucheng."

Chen Rao: "Okay, thank you, Mr. Ye!"

She jumped up from the ground looking refreshed as if nothing had happened.

Ike also stood up silently, without saying a word.

They are going to find other teammates.Before parting, Ye Jian asked Ike: "Did you see a pitch-black ancient tree when you lost control just now?"

Ike was stunned for a moment, then said, "Yes."

"I was in a daze at the time, but I vaguely saw a big black tree appearing over there, as if calling me to go..."

He raised his hand to point Ye Jian in the direction.

Ye Jian nodded: "Thank you."

He hugged Luo Ling to say goodbye to these two people, Chen Rao said, "Be careful, Mr. Ye."

Ye Jian: "Yes, I will."

Chen Rao watched the slender figure go away, remained silent for a few seconds, and suddenly uttered a sentence: "The forbidden area of ​​the dog day."

Ike: "...you're right!"

-

As the breeze swept across the plain, Luo Ling grabbed the corner of Ye Jian's clothes and stared at him.

Without saying a word, just staring at him.

Ye Jian pinched the little mermaid's face: "What are you doing?"

Luo Ling muttered: "That person said just now that he likes Ye Jian."

Ye Jian: Hey, little tangled fish, you're still thinking about this.

So he shook his head: "I don't like him."

When Luo Ling heard these words, a gleam of light flashed across his ruby-like eyes, and he couldn't hold back his courage, and said, "Brother, I—"

Ye Jian covered his mouth.

Don't tell.

If you didn't say it before, don't even think about it now.

... Wait until we return to the deep sea!

Luo Ling: "..."

The little mermaid flicked its tail angrily.

Unhappy.

unhappy!

Ye Jian reached out to his fish tail.

Luo Ling: "!"

The little mermaid froze immediately.

Ye Jian chuckled happily.

They continued to move forward, and they encountered not only strange beasts, but also some secondary infected people along the way.

It seems that after many watchers who had absorbed the condensate and crystal came to this illusion, the pollution that had not erupted before stopped dormant and devoured them instead.

Ye Jian saved all the reinfected people he met, and when he cured one of them, that person said gratefully in a weak voice: "I've heard of you, walking in this space, powerful and gentle God..."

"They all said that you came to save us..."

Ye Jian shook her head: "I'm not a god."

The second-infected person said: "Then you must be a messenger sent by the gods. After all, you are so beautiful and powerful... Ah, the boy in your arms is staring at me."

Every time a second-infected person was rescued, Ye Jian would ask them if they had seen the dark ancient tree, and they would get an answer without exception.

Following the route guided by these people, Ye Jian and Luo Ling finally came to the edge of this illusion.

The flawless mirror-like curtain hangs straight down from the distant sky and swings gently in the wind.

Ye Jian flicked her fingertips, and the black silk thread shot out with an unstoppable momentum—however, the curtain that seemed to be torn at will was indestructible.

Ye Jian: Oh, my major is wrong.

He looked at Luo Ling in his arms.

Luo Ling blinked at him, and then, a man with silver hair and black clothes appeared next to Ye Jian, raised his hand——

His slender and bony fingers touched the curtain, and in an instant, the mirror trembled, cracking fine lines suddenly.

Ye Jian: Wow, what a big fish.

The curtain shattered, revealing the space behind.

Luo Ling took Ye Jian's hand and led him in, and the cold air enveloped them both.

This is a dark and cold space, completely different from the warm illusion outside.

Luo Ling seemed to have noticed something, and frowned slightly: "Brother, follow me closely, something is wrong here."

He held Ye Jian's fingers tightly, and Ye Jian smiled at the mermaid comfortingly: "Don't worry, I will definitely not separate from you—"

The voice did not fall.

Luo Ling suddenly disappeared before his eyes.

Ye Jian: "..."

A very familiar scene.

Where is his fish? ?

How about a lively fish as big as him? ? ?
