"Oh?"

Unexpectedly, the murderer was still nearby, Chen Ping jumped directly with the wind, he wanted to see the appearance of the murderer.

What caught my eye was a red-haired young man, dressed in tatters, with the big fish tank behind him, and in the fish tank was the mermaid girl who had just been auctioned.

The young man saw that Chen Ping was just staring at him quietly, and after putting the girl down, he revealed a pair of sharp claws, and there was still a trace of blood on the claws.

"So, you're not human. Chen Ping said lightly.

"Boom!"

The young man leaned over and roared, as if to warn Chen Ping not to come closer.

"I guess you don't understand what I'm saying. ”

Suddenly, the boy bared his teeth and rushed at him with his claws waving.

Chen Ping had no choice but to knock him unconscious, and carried him to the girl, who shrank back in horror, but there was only that little place.

With these two mermaids, Chen Ping sneaked into the previous aquarium, which was closed at this time.

When looking through it, Chen Ping found the scars on the boy's body, densely wrapped like vines around his body, some had stammered, some had become inflamed and suppurated, and gave him good medicine, Chen Ping took the girl to the aquarium again, and a group of spirit beasts in the ocean were full of energy when they saw the arrival of the girl.

The seawater in the small fish tank was about to stink, so Chen Ping picked up the girl, helped her medicine the place where the scales had fallen off, and then temporarily put it in the big fish tank.

For a while, Chen Ping didn't know how to deal with these two people, if he was allowed to flee like this, he would not be able to move, and he would not be able to understand human speech, and he might starve to death on the road at some point.

If it were to be handed over to this aquarium, I wonder if they would be treated well. It was very inconvenient to take them with him, and Chen Ping's means of taking the surviving creatures had not yet been explored.

There is no good solution to this matter for the time being, so if it doesn't work, ask the yellow-haired old man for advice.

Chen Ping found a comfortable place to sit down, took out a Five Elements Grass, and pulled the elemental power in his body to try to refine it.

The black and white grass slowly faded in color, and the power of the five elements inside was quickly absorbed by Chen Ping.

It's good, it's just a little expensive, the power of the five elements that this grass can bring is a drop in the bucket, and Chen Ping refined all the remaining nine grasses in a row.

When Chen Ping opened his eyes, he saw that the mermaid girl was lying on the side of the tank and talking to the boy in a special language.

The young man's face was happy, but the girl seemed to be aggrieved and saying something, and Chen Ping didn't know whether to break the tranquility that belonged to them for a while.

"Hey!"

Chen Ping saw that the two of them were about to kiss, and interrupted.

Although the young man was favored by Chen Ping, he still looked vigilant.

Chen Ping raised his hands, waved, signaled that he had no weapons, no hostility, and whispered, "Calm down, calm down." ”

The young man watched Chen Ping walk slowly, and he didn't make any more unusual moves.

After Chen Ping saw that the distance was almost over, he took out a notebook, took out a pen, and drew waves and a few things that looked like mermaids on it.

The mermaid girl was excited, but the boy didn't react much.

Could it be that this young man is not a mermaid, Chen Ping slid the pen and notebook from the ground.

The young man picked it up and drew it according to Chen Ping's appearance before, this painting was very sloppy, but Chen Ping still saw a few key things, the signs of chemical poisons, and a few words that were blurry but could barely be seen clearly, spelled together: Xiao Mu.

Chen Ping called tentatively: "Xiao Mu?"

The young man looked up at Chen Ping, the tears in his eyes were almost unstoppable, what kind of information was contained in those eyes, pain, loneliness, unwillingness, and deep homesickness.

Chen Ping is a little frowning now, this young man is very likely to have become like this after being polluted, as for the language of the mermaid, it should have been taken in by the mermaid clan.

He looks like he is fourteen or fifteen years old, and he can write his own name, so it is estimated that he has lived with this mermaid for more than ten years, and he is also a poor child.

Chen Ping squatted down and opened his arms to the young man, he wanted to see if this most primitive method would work.

The boy turned his head to look at the girl and hesitated, the girl kept encouraging him, and finally the boy couldn't hold back and hugged Chen Ping.

This should be the first time in more than ten years that others who are also human beings have been so cared for, Chen Ping patted him on the back and kept comforting him. The young man hugged Chen Ping tightly and refused to let go of his hand.

After a while, the aquarium was opened, and some staff came in to clean up and feed. One of them saw Chen Ping and the two monsters and hurriedly reported to his superiors.

After a while, a thin man walked over, he recognized that the water tank was a mermaid, and his eyes lit up and said, "This friend, thank you for giving us a rare mermaid from all over the world." ”

"She's my friend. ”

Chen Ping didn't look at him, but felt the emotions transmitted to him by the mermaid girl through the glass.

"So, what if you have more money to buy your friend?" said the man.

Chen Ping looked coldly at the well-dressed humanoid beast in front of him and said, "Call your curator over, it's that yellow-haired old man." ”

The man waved his hand and said, "The curator is resting today, but it's not your turn to sprinkle here." ”

"Trespassing into the private sphere, I see you as a terrorist. ”

Seeing that Chen Ping didn't enter, the man said to the person next to him, "Tie up a few of them for me." ”

Seeing that a few people had bad intentions, the young man leaned over and made an attack gesture, constantly intimidating the few people who were walking slowly.

Chen Ping took a step forward, stood in front of the young man, and said loudly: "I see which of you dares to touch them today!"

The figure in front of him reminded the boy of his father, who often carried him back as a child, and his uncompetitive eyes began to turn red again.

Seeing that Chen Ping was about to fight them to the end, his body exuded an invincible momentum, and the crowd did not dare to continue to move forward.

At the time of the stalemate, it was time for the aquarium to open, and because of yesterday's events, many people came to see the fruit man show.

Even if there were managers, someone soon came to the stalemate.

"What's the sitcom at this time?"

"Look, is that a mermaid? I've only seen it in documentaries before!"

"I've made a lot of money this time!"

“...”

A group of people turned on the camera function of the address book and filmed.

The thin man suddenly shouted to the crowd: "This person wants to steal the mermaid in our pavilion, everyone quickly notify the patrol team!"
