19. The Great Escape from the Sea (Medium)
Ji Mo panicked.
He first cautiously searched the seabed around him for a long time, but found no Ao Bai; Then he swam to a high place and looked around, but still did not find Ao Bai.
- What's going on......
Ji Mo almost collapsed in the end. He even lost his mind, and stupidly lay at the bottom of the sea, rummaging through the corpses of the dead beasts, rubbing their bulging bellies, and fearfully ruling out a possible situation.
"No, none! It's impossible, Ao Bai is so powerful, it's obvious that he won this time. Ji Mo comforted himself and continued to search in the nearby seas. But he searched until the reef was re-occupied and danced by the fish, shrimp and crabs that had been lifted the alert, but he still found nothing.
Ji Mo looked at the faces of those sensitive fish and shrimp, and knew that this sea area was completely safe, he also let go of his hands and feet, expanded the scope of search, and finally even went back to the cave where they settled to take a look, hoping that Ao Bai's figure would appear in it - however, there was only his own burden in the cave.
"Oh my God...... Don't be so cruel? In despair, Ji Mo returned to the coral reef where the incident occurred, and he firmly believed that Ao Bai could not leave him alone, unless he encountered great danger and could not help himself.
In the middle of waiting, Ji Mo paid close attention to the movements of the surrounding fish and shrimp, and as the bloody smell of the fierce beast spread farther and farther, and then attracted a small group of carnivorous sharks, Ji Mo followed the surrounding sea creatures who warned and hid.
It didn't take long for those big guys with terrifying sharp teeth to devour the corpses of those giant blood squids, and then left You Yuan satisfied.
Ji Mo came out of the reef cave again, waiting anxiously and desperately.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ao Bai still didn't come back. Ji Mo had already wandered around like crazy to find him, but he didn't dare to swim too far, for fear that the white dragon would have to look for him after he came back tired.
- yes, maybe he just found something, and then went to track it down, and he will definitely be able to come back safely.
******
Ao Bai was very wolf at this time.
The slender and sturdy dragon had large swaths of scales shedding in many places, revealing the flesh that had flipped inside, and the long battle and excessive blood loss made him feel tired and powerless; The most serious injury on his tail has directly affected his speed and agility in swimming.
"I don't know how he's doing now." Ao Bai was also very anxious, and rushed back with all his might, and on the sea where he left in a hurry, there were more than a dozen saber-toothed shark corpses floating.
Today's thing is actually like this, after Ao Bai spent a lot of energy to defeat the group of aggressive and fierce giant blood squid, just when he wanted to dive down to find Ji Mo and take him out of this place of right and wrong, a group of saber-toothed sharks that were very good at concealing their whereabouts smelled the smell of blood and rushed over, Ao Bai didn't plan to conflict with them at first, because he had been injured in the battle just now.
So, he was going to wait for those saber-toothed sharks to finish devouring the giant blood squid before going to find Ji Mo, who knew that the moment he relaxed and gasped a little, he was actually attacked by the saber-toothed shark leader!
"They must have discovered my wounds and sensed my weariness, otherwise they would not have attacked me." Ao Bai thought in annoyance, but he couldn't afford to think too much at the moment, so he could only fight again, and intentionally or unintentionally retreated while fighting, leading the saber-toothed shark away from his partner's hiding place.
Ao Bai sometimes flies away and accumulates the body; From time to time, they stopped to attack, and they were able to deal with one by one, until the last few cunning and combative saber-toothed sharks gave up the idea of trying dragon meat and turned around and fled.
- Oops, there's a strong smell of storms gathering ......
Ao Bai thought of Ji Mo's frightened and frightened look when the thunderstorm came last time, and he was so anxious that he couldn't wait to find a partner in the blink of an eye and take him back to the cave safely.
*****
It's getting dark, why haven't you come back?
Ji Mo almost turned over the bottom of the surrounding sea inch by inch, and swam to the sea from time to time to take a look, each time he rushed out of the sea, and searched for the nearby situation by staying in the air for a few seconds, hoping that Ao Bai's slender and sturdy figure would appear in his sight the next moment.
However, he was disappointed again and again, and every time he fell heavily into the sea, no one on the lower side would catch him carefully, and the mermaid could only slap the surface of the sea, shaking his head dizzy. Dizziness is nothing, and it will be relieved after a while, but the despair and sadness in my heart are deepening layer by layer.
Slowly, he began to feel the changes in the ocean—without Ao Bai's reminder, he could only make out with great difficulty and obtuseness.
Although it was dark, the dull and oppressive atmosphere on the sea was very obvious, and the large heavy cumulonimbus clouds not far away were moving slowly, as if they were overhead; The originally gentle sea water began to slowly appear with large undercurrents, containing great power, so that Ji Mo, who was staying on the surface of the sea, gradually couldn't stay.
The ocean is so big, the waves are raging and rolling, and it feels more and more sad and empty.
As an unusually bright lightning bolt appeared in front of him, a deafening thunder came almost simultaneously, followed by raindrops the size of beans; There was a strong wind sweeping and enveloping the waves.
The whole sea seemed to be turned upside down and swirled, and the forces of nature were irresistible.
Ji Mo, a small mermaid, was easily swept up and pressed by the tumbling waves, and then pulled out and thrown into the air.
- No, what am I doing here? If Ao Bai can't find me when he comes back, he'll go crazy......
When he was pressed into the sea by the waves again, the groggy Ji Mo finally gave up the depressed idea of "just let it be, just go with the waves and bury it in the storm", he kicked hard and dived with all his strength, and finally got rid of the turbulence of the shallow sea water and returned to the quiet and stable deep sea.
Swimming back to the black-gray coral reef designated by Ao Bai for him to hide, Ji Mo couldn't hold back any longer, and began to lie on it and silently drop pearls, thinking that if something really happened to Bailong, he really felt that his heart was also dead......
When he looked up at the sea again with anticipation, Ji Mo's eyes clearly saw a slender figure swaying rapidly on the sea, and vaguely saw a flash of white-
"Ao Bai!" The merfolk screamed in ecstasy, wagging their tails and almost crying to meet them.
A wave pressed the slender figure into the water, and the other party dived into the deep sea, and Ji Mo, who met him, and the fierce inorganic brown eyes of the other party looked at each other closely
- Not Ao Bai
