The river breeze blows on the body at night, with a slight coolness. Especially when the whole body is wet, the chill is a bit biting. Xiaoying couldn't help but sneez, just now he was patronizing to save people, and he forgot to change into dry clothes, and then his mind moved, and the light on his body flashed, and a new and dry elastic dark pattern brocade suit had jumped into view, and even his hair was tied again, looking very handsome, sunny.

Looking around, there is only this lonely flower boat wandering on the river, and the surroundings are very quiet, only the waves can be heard gently lapping against the hull, as if telling the peace of the night.

Chopping Dong seemed to have a precursor to waking up, there seemed to be eyeballs rolling frequently in his eye sockets, and a very weak voice came out of his mouth, Xiaoying's punch just now was really a little hard.

Suddenly, there was a woman's singing voice from the shore leisurely, the voice was very domineering, directly into the ears, but the singing voice was beautiful and moving, like crying, people couldn't bear to give up, as if they were struggling to find love......

Xiao Ying had already reached Jindan's cultivation, and his gaze naturally exceeded the places that could only be reached by his eyes. She "saw" that on the other side not far away, a delicate face appeared, her face was bright and dark, her eyes were stagnant and mysterious, her lips were closed one by one, as if she was singing, and she revealed a beautiful voice that she had never heard before, like a lover whispering in her ear, tickling into people's hearts. If a man hears this song, he will be itching and going after it...

Her long silver hair like moonlight spreads out on the surface of the sea, and her sea-blue eyes seem to contain a deep sea-like tranquility. The snow-white and crystalline complexion strongly occupies the gaze, and there is hardly any shroud on the upper body, except for two small shells dancing on the chest. Her waist is very thin and thin, without a trace of fat and showing a perfect arc of strength, and under the graceful waist, the silver fishtail gently slides the seawater, and from time to time it will jump out of the sea, reflecting the moonlight.

This... Could it be the legendary mermaid? As Shadow scrutinized the never-before-seen creature, the mermaid seemed to smile mysteriously in her direction...

According to the traditional theory, the mermaid is bounded by the waist, the upper body is a woman, and the lower body is a beautiful fish tail covered with scales, and the whole body is full of fatal temptation to the human race, especially men, and the fish tail is easy to escape quickly. At times, they are as soulless as the sea, and their voices are often as deceptive as their appearances, and they are all about seduction, vanity, beauty, cruelty, and desperate love, and they are cold, lacking a beating heart and a body of blood. She sings incessantly, especially in the middle of the night, to seduce young men to carry on the lineage. If the person who comes is not what they want, they will be mercilessly killed.

Several versions of the mermaid story came to Shadow's mind. Obviously, she is not the beautiful, kind, self-sacrificing mermaid princess of Hans Christian Andersen's pen in search of true love, but rather similar to the Siren Selene in Greek mythology, she always appears on the stormy sea, singing poignant songs on the shore, seducing sailors to and from the sea, so that the boat they are driving will involuntarily sail to the reef on the shore and crash into pieces.

The flower boat seems to be heading in the direction of the merfolk. Choto didn't know when he woke up, and stood straight by the rudder, rocking the direction of the flower boat. His gaze was blank and expressionless, just looking in the direction of the merfolk. Xiaoying sighed secretly, no, this fool was confused by the singing. Conjure up four earplugs and plug the ears of the two fools to prevent him from doing stupid things when he wakes up.

Cho Dong's eyes instantly cleared, and the ship stopped. Sure enough, the book wrote that this method worked, and the ears were tightly gagged so that they would not hear the bewildering singing.

"What's going on?" said Chopdong, as if waking up from a dream.

"See for yourself," Shadow snorted.

"Is that an unclothed woman?" he blurted out, and when he looked at it again, he found the big fishtail that appeared from time to time.

"Is it a merman?" asked Chopdong looking at Xiaoying, who seemed to know a lot.

I don't know when, Yin Haoran was already standing beside them, and said, "This merman woman is really as beautiful as the legend. ”

"What? You still want to catch one and play with it, can't you?" asked Xiaoying rhetorically, and the man had heard of the amazing taste in his words.

"It's not impossible, a few years ago, the Imperial City Auction House once auctioned a mermaid woman, it was a sky-high price, rich businessmen and nobles flocked to it, and money couldn't buy it," Yin Haoran said with relish there.

"Oh, why is she so popular?" Xiaoying has naturally heard of the famous auction house, everything is sold, as long as you can afford it, you can get it there, it is said that the auction house secretly raises a group of people to specialize in those unsightly things, of course, this is a later story.

The book says that there are mermaids in the East China Sea, who can live for thousands of years, crying tears into beads, and are of great value; the anointing and burning the lamp will not be extinguished for ten thousand years; the silk silk woven by the shark is as light as a feather; and its scales can cure all kinds of diseases and prolong life. After his death, he turned into clouds and rain, rising in the sky and falling in the sea. Yin Haoran said slowly.

"Why are the Terrans so cruel to the mermaids?" Xiaoying listened a little unbearable.

"Is it cruel that the human race in this world is like this to all foreign races?" Yin Haoran said, asking rhetorically, and everyone fell silent.

"Let's turn around and go back quickly," I don't want to say more, just run for my life, Xiaoying said as she looked at the perilous surroundings.

There is an intuition that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and things are not so simple.

"It seems to be late," as soon as Cho Dong's voice fell, the underwater thing made a comeback. It finally revealed its true face, a mermaid-like youkai with a fish-like lower body in the shape of a mermaid, but with a very different face. With a mouth cracked to the ears, sharp teeth, and two antlers on its head, it is quite a terrifying kraken.

It is about 20 to 30 meters long, more than the size of a flower boat, and it can shake the hull with a single flick of its tail. It kept hitting the hull of the ship, wandering anxiously around the perimeter in an attempt to overturn the entire ship. The fishtail stirs up huge waves and washes the flower boat.

"This is Isohime, hiding on the shore of the stormy waves, and when someone approaches, she rides the waves and twists the person's body from the beginning. Once she is sniped, no matter how powerful a man is, he can't parry. And this one is even bigger than the book, and it should have hundreds of years of spiritual power. Yin Haoran said obliviously on the side.
