- That orc is also a dragon? How many dragons are there here? Am I still on the Sicilian mainland?

Facing the question of the tower priest, Ao Bai replied solemnly: "This is the holy lake, so of course you are still on the Sicilian continent, and there are only three dragons in total. ”

"Haha~~~!" Ji Mo couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud, but quickly tightened his face.

"Isn't three of a kind enough? Three of a kind is scary enough! The old priest said angrily, and he had to carefully help the little tiger cub to bandage his wounds.

When Ao Bai wanted to say something, Ji Mo opened his mouth first: "Tower priest, don't worry, we have our own home, not on land, and we will leave sooner or later." ”

Oh, don't be nervous, we're not going to leave hahaha......

"Tower priest, help Ji Mo, he and Ao Bai are very good, they once saved my life and my mother's father's life." Xitu was very sensible, and took the opportunity to help persuade him.

"Oh? Saved your life and your mother's father's life? Don't lie, Xitu. Tart warned with a straight face.

"I didn't lie, my mother and father were very sick before, and when I disappeared for the first time, I went to the Sicilian Sea to look for pearls, and it was at that time that Ao Bai and Ji Mo rescued me and sent pearls to bring back to the tribe." Cetu earnestly explains that he doesn't want to be mistaken for a little orc who likes to lie.

After listening to this, Ta was very hesitant, he looked at Xitu, and then looked at Qing Zhe's nod: Thinking back to the incident when Qing Zhe was seriously ill and suddenly recovered slowly, afterwards, the clansmen all sighed that it was the beast god who blessed him, that the priest was clever, and that the cub was sensible, but of course Ta was clear - Qing Zhe's recovery was a bit bizarre.

"Tower Priest, if you can help Ji Mo this time, we will also return a certain number of pearls." Ao Bai said sincerely.

Ji Mo stroked his belly, feeling the movements of the fetus inside becoming clearer and more powerful day by day, and his heart was really bottomless.

According to the cognition of the crossing fish, the mermaids in this world are oviparous, but the dragons are viviparous.

However, due to the combination of mermaid and dragon in the past, there was no object to refer to, and the novice husband could only explore and test it on his own.

When the fetus first began to develop, it was natural that they could only wait, and then when the fetus grew up a little, Ji Mo and Ao Bai stared at the belly when they were free, you touch it, I touched it, and exchanged each other's opinions, but I still couldn't be sure; Recently, as the due date approached, the husband and wife were even more confused: the fetus did not feel like a round egg, but the angular shape was not very clear!

Still can't be sure.

What kind of state will the combination of arowana give birth to a child? For example, the little dragon in the eggshell, the small fish born directly out of wedlock, etc., before they are born, it is really impossible to make a conclusion.

Ao Bai habitually sat behind his partner, put his palm on his abdomen, and stroked it gently, his heart was very anxious, he was worried that his partner would suddenly feel uncomfortable, and the old priest was really unwilling to lend a hand.

Ji Mo changed his posture without moving, and sighed, he had a sore back after sitting for a long time.

"What's wrong? Uncomfortable? Ao Bai hurriedly asked with concern.

After hearing this, Ta couldn't help but glance over here, there was a little tiger cub lying next to him, and his hand was helping him smooth his hair, and his expression was very struggling and hesitant.

"It's nothing, I'll change my seat." Ji Mo whispered that with the help of his partner, he struggled to turn over and face the fire instead.

Looking at the past from the tower's point of view, according to his requirements, the female of this mermaid is obviously thin, not ruddy enough, but the belly is too large, I don't know if it is because it has not been raised well.

"Is that okay?" Ao Bai bent down and asked, while helping to lift the corner of the cloak that fell to the ground and put it on his partner's waist.

It is clearly a tall and sturdy, arrogant and cold dragon orc who doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, but when he takes care of his partner, he is like no one else, and he does his best to care about it, and his movements are both skillful and gentle, without a trace of reluctance.

This qiē happened to hit the old priest's consistent view that "orcs should take care of their mates in detail", and Ta's impression of Ao Bai was a little better, and he thought with some surprise in his heart:

Hey? It turns out that their sea clan husband and wife can get along like this? I always thought that the dragons were brutal, cold-blooded, and invincible.

At this time, Rong Tuo was already hurriedly eating a fragrant and hot grilled fish, and when he saw the land priest's repeated refusal to accept help, he couldn't help but mutter:

"You're still a priest, and you're not willing to save the dead! Hmph~ The priests of our sea clan are not like you, they have always been cured first, and then they will talk about it, what can't you say slowly after being cured? I have to be ruthless and don't save ......"

Although Rong Tuo's voice is not loud, it can't stand the living room is so big, and it is quiet at this time, which is enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Ao Bai was powerless to support his forehead, and quickly cut off Rong Tuo's words: "Okay, Rong Tuo, eat your grilled fish." You can't use the rules of the Sea Clan to demand land priests, they are inherently different. ”

Hey~ You stupid dragon! It's better not to say that.

"Uh~" Ji Mo looked at the old priest who was obviously a little uncomfortable, and explained: "I'm sorry, they are just upright, they just came ashore, they don't understand the rules of the land tribe, they don't mean anything else, don't worry about it." Come, come over for lunch, eat well and rest for a while, everyone is tired today. ”

Xitu was waiting for this sentence, he was already hungry, and looked enviously at Rong Tuo who could eat first freely and openly, but he didn't dare, because Qing Zhe was strict.

"Tower priest, mother and father, let's go over and eat too, I'm so hungry." Xitu looked up and asked earnestly.

"Alas~ good, good! We can't starve the future warriors of our tribe. The old priest came to his senses, picked up the little tiger cub with a little difficulty, and sat down around the fire.

Although Rong Tuo's blunt complaint just now made him feel very uncomfortable: as a respected old priest in the beast tribe, Ta habitually received all kinds of gratitude and praise from the clansmen, and it was the first time he heard this kind of accusation that he would not save himself and was cold-blooded and xenophobic, and his heart was panicked.

Ji Mo took the initiative to hand over the skewers of grilled shrimp, and introduced with a smile: "Try it, Priest Tower, this is the shrimp at the bottom of the Holy Lake, the meat is delicious and firm, freshly caught and grilled, very fresh, and the seasoning powder sprinkled on it is Qingzhe's match, I think it should meet your taste." ”

“…… Good. Ta hesitated, but reached out to take it.

Originally, he blurted out "thank you", but he saw the three dragons again out of the corner of his eye, which made the old priest feel unhappy again, and felt that he had no reason to be so polite and polite to a group of sea tribes who kidnapped him, so he finally changed his words coldly.

As for eating or not eating?

That's going to be eaten, of course.

The first is that the stomach is really hungry, and the second is how to have the strength to deal with this group of sea tribes without eating?

Ta silently peeled off the shrimp shell, put the broth that Ao Bai had helped to fill in his hand, and ate lunch with a heavy heart.

"Let's have another barbecue, didn't you get up in the morning to eat? Alas~ I really shouldn't be used to you! Ji Mo, you are too unconscious, don't let me lose my temper. Ao Bai sighed very helplessly, straightened his face and stuffed a small piece of barbecue into Ji Mo's hand, his eyes were extremely firm, and his face was capitalized:

Gotta eat it, I don't want to hear it whatever you say!!

Ji Mo shook his head frantically, "Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go!" If you eat your own, shall I eat it later? ”

Crossing Fish has noticeably lost his appetite lately, and has been abstaining from breakfast for a while, as he prefers to sleep until he wakes up naturally than eating breakfast. Although the main meal was reduced to two meals a day, when it was time to start the meal, he still felt that the last meal was still blocked in his throat, and he really couldn't swallow it.

"Of course not, you have to eat!" Ao Bai also did not give in, only at this point, he was unwilling to let Ji Mo go.

"Ao Bai, don't let me lose my temper in front of so many people, I said I want to eat later, you put it down!" Ji Mo lowered his voice coldly and said that he was not willing to compromise, because he felt nauseous for a while when he smelled the food.

Except for the tower and Rong Tuo, the other three are all strange.

The little white dragon husband glared at each other again, although they didn't really quarrel, but they looked like they were about to make a move.

In the next second, Ji Mo, who was retracted into the cloak, shouted angrily: "Hey~ You dripped oil onto my clothes!" Don't make a fuss, take the barbecue away, or I'm going to be really angry." ”

"Okay, it's okay if you don't eat this." The little white dragon took a deep breath and stiffened the roast meat back in its place.

“？” Ji Mo cautiously poked his head out and looked at his partner vigilantly, for fear that this was a delaying tactic.

"What do you want to eat? I'll find it for you. Ao Bai said calmly, trying to restrain his feelings.

Ji Mo waved the cloak away, frowned, and begged for mercy and said, "I'll just eat these, but I'm really full, who can swallow such a big piece of meat when I'm full?" ”

"No, you can't." Ao Bai suppressed his temper and admonished, "During this time, I let you sleep and didn't wake you up to eat in the morning, so shouldn't you eat the morning portion at noon and night?" How did you promise me? ”

Ji Mo was speechless, "I, I did promise you at that time, but I really don't want to eat it recently, and I can't force this problem of food consumption!" Okay Ao Bai, spare me, hurry up and eat you. ”

After watching the scene in front of him, Ta couldn't help but criticize Ao Bai:

"Didn't you prepare food for him in the morning? How can this be! Morning is morning, noon is noon, and evening is night, where is the reason not to eat in the morning and make up for noon? Then why don't you tell him not to eat during the day and wait for the evening together? ”

Tut-tut~ These novice husbands are so self-righteous that they are messing around, as long as the female says that they can't eat it, and the orcs are really tossed by the other party and don't prepare food? Alas......

Ao Bai was said to be very ashamed, and he sneered and defended: "It's not that I didn't prepare food, it's that he didn't want to wake up and eat, and he had to lose his temper and get angry when he forced him to get up, and he was very angry, I think he was really sleepy, that's why—"

"So you're just going to let him eat less?" The old priest shook his head incomprehensibly, "No wonder your mermaid is so thin, it stands to reason that he shouldn't be so thin with the size of his belly, you guys are so nonsense." ”

Ji Mo was ashamed, and he hurriedly defended himself: "It's not exactly like Ao Bai said, I really can't get up in the morning, and I eat a lot of preserved fruits every day, I'm not hungry at all, I can't eat fat by nature, really!" ”

Ta looked at Ji Mo's slender neck and figure, according to his previous practice, he would definitely have to reprimand the novice husband endlessly and then order them to eat where they should pay attention, but when he thought of Ji Mo's mermaid identity, his mouth could not be opened.

- Alas ~ The beast god is above, what should the priests of the Sicilian continent do if they encounter a sea mermaid who needs help? If I help him, will my people understand? If I don't help him, will I be worthy of my conscience as a priest?

Ao Bai is indeed inexperienced, and he is used to spoiling his partner too much, as long as Ji Mo shows a painful and uncomfortable expression, he can't stand it, and he will compromise first, and being able to do such a tough feeding today is already the result of many efforts.

"Tower Priest, you're right, it's me who didn't take good care of Ji Mo." Ao Bai said as if he had made up his mind, "I decided that I can't let him sleep in the morning, even if I wake up and cry about the pearls, it's useless." ”

Ji Mo suddenly panicked as if the sky had fallen, "Ao Bai, don't be impulsive, let's go back and discuss something slowly~"

Oh, my God! In the early morning of the cold season, I can't open my eyes at all, what to eat?

As the eldest brother, Ao Yang finally helped his brother say something at this time: "Ji Mo, you still listen to the arrangement of the priest and Ao Bai, it is not right to sleep too much and be so hungry and thin." ”

"It's a pity that there is no fresh fruit at this time, Ji Mo likes to eat fruits, when he first came, he could eat many in a day." Qingzhe said regretfully.

The tower priest glanced at Ji Mo, "Don't make any more trouble, although I haven't checked your body, and I don't know about the breeding of the sea tribe mermaid, but if you draw conclusions based on the situation of land females, your current physical condition is relatively poor, if you can eat more, just eat more, anyway, it's in the late stage, no matter how you eat, you won't be fat." ”

Ji Mo felt aggrieved for the first time and wanted to jump to his feet, "But I really can't eat it, priest, my throat and eyes are jammed, and I don't feel hungry all day." ”

Touching the fetus in his belly that began to move slightly, Ji Mo was also a little nervous when the priest said, "Well, he started to move again, in fact, I feel that the child is growing very well, and he has always been very energetic, not like he is weak." ”

Ji Mo was holding the mentality of seeking medical advice at this time, facing the tower, his eyes were pleading with anxiety, and he was holding his stomach with both hands.

Ta looked at the mermaid in front of him, put down the barbecue in his hand, and naturally wanted to touch Ji Mo's belly, but when he was about to touch the other party's belly, his fingertips paused and stagnated.

Ao Bai stayed by the side with concern, and when he saw that the hand that the tower had taken over stopped again, he thought about it, and simply took Ji Mo to take the initiative to move forward, and the posture of the always arrogant little white dragon couldn't be lower at this time:

"Help, we will always remember you, my partner and children can't be fine, help Ji Mo take a look, okay?"

Ji Mo was originally a man, where can he be shy now, after Ao Bai moved him forward, he also took the initiative to move forward, gently grabbed the hand of the tower and put it on his stomach, and said cautiously:

"Priest, do you feel it? Can you feel the child moving? ”

The old priest was a little difficult to ride a tiger, and his hand was indeed stretched out by him, but when he hesitated, Ao Bai had already sent his partner over directly, and Ji Mo looked at him very eagerly, and his palm was grabbed by Ji Mo and moved slowly.

"How? Is the child particularly lively? Ji Mo asked expectantly, he lacked a diagnosis from a professional doctor now, and he was really fed up with his cranky guessing about the development of the fetus.

The tower was eagerly watched by the little white dragon husband, and the eyes were so respectful and trusting of himself, the tower finally spoke:

"Well, the cub is really lively, he has a lot of strength."

Ao Bai was immediately happy, with a smile on his face, and leaned over to his partner's stomach to take a closer look: "Is it?" He doesn't move very often, most of the time he is quiet, and Ji Mo and I sometimes think that he may be in a bad mood. ”

"Merfolk or dragons?" Xitu was full, and he also came over to join in the fun, what he was most concerned about was whether Ji Mo was carrying a little dragon or a little mermaid in his belly.

Although Ao Yang and Rong Tuo were also curious, they were embarrassed to go over to see it, but Qing Zhe was quite embarrassed, because the females in the tribe were in the bedroom when they invited the priests to come over before.

After the old priest had survived the initial struggle, he simply didn't think much about it, in fact, he was quite interested in the mermaid females of the Sea Tribe—mermaid cubs, I had never seen them before.

"Shhhhhh Qingzhe reminded the little tiger cub.

Ta put his hands on it, and felt the mermaid's situation carefully, and after a while, he frowned, and said, "I can't touch it like this, you are wearing too much, so let's go to the house." ”

"Okay! However......" Ao Bai agreed first, but then hesitantly looked at the barbecue that the tower had not finished eating and still had a few bites left.

Ji Mo looked at the little white dragon's eyes, and hurriedly said: "I'm really sorry, we are in a hurry, the tower priest, you should continue to eat, look at what we are doing, it is really rude." ”

The ashamed crossing fish silently complained in his heart about himself and the little white dragon: Hey~ I've seen the anxious, the tower priest must not have seen someone as anxious as us, and he didn't let people eat enough to ask for a doctor!

"Well, then you wait first, I'll show you later" Ta smiled, turned around and picked up the rest of the roast, ate a few bites, and slowly drank the broth.

――Oops~ How did I really help the sea merfolk?

The old priest who came back to his senses was very annoyed, but looking at the little master of the Sea Clan who was respectfully waiting next to him, he couldn't go back on his word based on his cultivation, and retracted what he had said.

Hmm~ Actually, if you put aside their identity as a sea clan, this husband is still quite sincere, and it can be seen that they really need the help of the priests, except for the initial unpleasantness, their attitude is okay.

*****

After the meal, Ao Bai followed the priest's instructions and took his partner into the inner room.

Ta felt inexplicable in his heart, but he didn't stop shouting, and he kept his promise.

"How's it going, priest? Is the child healthy? Ji Mo asked nervously as he lay on his back on the bed.

"Don't worry, I'll take a look." Ta said slowly, his expression inquiring.

"Ji Mo, do you feel like you're pregnant with a mermaid or a dragon?"

Ao Bai stood beside the bed and couldn't help but answer: "We're not sure. ”

"What?" Ta looked up at the little white dragon suspiciously, "Can't you sense it as a beast father?" ”

In terrestrial tribes, if the partner is pregnant with a baby orc, the beast father can feel a subtle connection with him.

Ji Mo explained helplessly and apprehensively: "It's such a tower priest, we sea tribes have never had a precedent for mermaids and dragons to be partners before. The children of the mermaid family are born with a soft membrane, and the soft membrane will harden into a shell when exposed to water, and the little mermaid will be truly born after a period of time; Dragons are born as baby dragons, but we can't be sure what will be born after the combination of dragonfish. ”

Ta nodded with interest, "Got it, you're a mermaid, you have a fishtail, right?" Can you conjure it up for me to see? I don't know what your birth canal looks like. ”

"Uh~ Okay, I'll try." Ji Mo glanced at Ao Bai a little embarrassed, although he was very intimate in private, but this feeling of being stared at and turned into a fishtail when outsiders were present was too weird.

Ao Bai didn't understand, blinked his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" Is it because there is no water that can't be changed? ”

Ta lowered his head and smiled, but did not speak.

"You go out first, and I'll talk to the priest of the tower." Ji Mo waved his hand.

Ao Bai didn't move, bent down and said, "You guys talk, don't you want to hear it too?" ”

Ji Mo smiled quite brightly, "Not now, I'll tell you when I go back." ”

Ao Bai's expression was a little hurt: "Why? I just stood by, and I didn't speak. ”

In the end, it was the old priest who opened his mouth to drive away the dragon, "Go out, Ao Bai, you are standing next to me and hindering me." ”

Facing the firm gaze of the two females, Ao Bai tried hard for a long time, but in the end he failed, so he could only go out unhappily, stick to the door panel, listen and wait.

A moment later

Before the smile on Ji Mo's face disappeared, he was hit by the old priest.

The tower touched and touched and checked and checked again and again, and asked in disbelief:

"Ji Mo, aren't you, aren't you a female mermaid?"
