Chapter 10: The Shark Clan
"You were poisoned by the colorful fruit, and it happened that the gall of the Henggong fish can detoxify this poison, fortunately, you were touched by our mermaid clan, killed the Henggong fish, and took the gall to detoxify you. You helped us get rid of this scourge, and we helped you detoxify, which is also considered to be a nonsense. However, the poison in your body has not been completely removed, the toxin remains in the liver, if you think about it again, the liver will still bleed, I am afraid that the residual poison will attack again, and no one will be able to save you at that time. The girl who called herself a merman looked at the two lines of nosebleeds in Jiangzhou and said with disdain.
"It turns out that the nosebleed is caused by residual poison, and I don't think I will be so unproductive, and I will have a nosebleed when I see a beautiful woman." Jiang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, but this was also a disgrace in front of this mermaid beauty.
He looked at the place, it was a large room, the tables and chairs were made of stone, the beds were also of stone, the beds were covered with satin silk, and the room was full of ornaments of shells and pearls. At the top of the room, there is a palm-sized night pearl, which illuminates the whole room as if it were day.
"Since you've woken up, I'll send you away." The beauty shark is humane.
"Wait, where did you get the smelt?" Jiang Zhou remembered Bai Ze's words again, the scales on the Heng male fish were a good material for equipment.
"Smelt? Of course, it is killed, such a scourge, as long as there is an opportunity, it must not be spared. ”
"What about the corpses?"
"What do you ask the corpse for?" The mermaid wondered.
"Honestly, I want to take the scales from the male fish."
"That scale was plucked down by our Shark Clan, and it would be better to keep it as a shield for the Shark Warrior. If you want scales, I can get you a few. ”
"How many,? Just kidding, if I hadn't stunned the fish, how could you have killed it? Presumably this monster has eaten a lot of your kind, right? Just now you also called me Engong, since I have been kind to you mermaids, I don't want to report it, give me all the scales of the Henggong fish. "Even if the other party is a beauty, when it's time to bargain, you can't be soft-hearted.
"That's right, you can be regarded as a favor to the mermaid clan, but we help you detoxify, even if we don't owe each other. If you want to take all the scales of the crossfish, it's impossible! The tone of the beautiful mermaid was also tough, and there was no room for negotiation.
"Yao'er, why did you quarrel with Engong?" At this time, a middle-aged merman walked over, also with fins on his ears, arms and legs, but on both sides of his lips, there were two long whiskers.
"Daddy, this man is so domineering, he has to get all the scales." The shark called Yao'er is popular and stomps his feet.
"Engong, we shark people want scales, which are used as shields to defend against foreign enemies. What do you want scales for? Yao'er's father asked with a frown.
"Defend against foreign enemies? Your foreign enemy is a crossfish, and now the crossfish is dead? Jiang Zhou asked.
"Engong doesn't know, Henghu leads directly to the West Sea, and there are mermaids in the West Sea, who are close relatives of our mermaid tribe, but they are mortal enemies. The mermaid tribe is outnumbered, and built an underwater kingdom in the West Sea, and robbed the mermaid tribe in the West Sea as slaves, and our remaining mermaid tribe had to withdraw from the West Sea and nest in this small horizontal lake. Yao'er's father fell into bitter memories and looked sad.
Is there a mermaid in the West Sea? Aren't mermaids creatures from Western mythology? The mermaid is a creature in ancient Chinese mythology, although there is a place where the two are close, but how can a mermaid appear in Eastern mythology?
Also, isn't this the Honghuang Manor? How can it be so big that it encompasses all the West Sea?
Jiangzhou couldn't figure it out for a while, but what the merman said should be the truth. So that is to say, here, the mythical creatures of the East and the West, may exist.
This discovery made Jiangzhou even more shocking and incredible. After returning to this matter, you must ask Bai Ze about it clearly.
"My father has made it clear, we have our own difficulties, and the scales of this crossfish are treasures, which can raise the combat power of our merman warriors to a higher level. If you want to take all the scales of the smelt, we won't agree. If you have the ability, you can grab it! Yao'er's tone was still non-negotiable.
"Since that's the case, I'll sell you a favor, and I'll only take a third." Also, people rely on this to save their lives, and Jiangzhou can't go too far. What's more, others have saved their own lives, so we have to take a step back for the sake of saving lives.
"You have a lot of appetite, if you want it, I'll give you two pieces, otherwise don't talk about it! We don't owe you a favor, and you don't want to wrap us in. ”
has already said this, why is he still shy and asks for so much? What else do you say about selling favors? How can the skin be so thick? Yao'er is now more and more disgusted with Jiangzhou.
"Yao'er, Hugh is unreasonable, Engong has already made concessions, one-third is one-third. Someone's coming! Yao'er's father shouted, and then several sharks in armor came over.
"Then you will bring someone to take a third of the scales of the smelt."
A few merman warriors answered and retreated.
"Are you still the head of the mermaids?" Jiang Zhou asked curiously.
"I am the new patriarch of the mermaid clan, Mizuhara, and the previous patriarch was my father, who died at the hands of the mermaid clan a few years ago."
"Patriarch Suwon is really a particular person, I have made up your friend, if it is useful to get my place in the future, I will do my best." Jiangzhou patted his chest and guaranteed.
"May I ask what is the name of Eungong?" Suwon asked.
"Jiangzhou."
"Brother Jiang Xian, you have solved a ** trouble for my merman clan, and in order to show gratitude, I will give you another night pearl."
"Pearl of the Night! Then thank you Patriarch! ”
O pearl of the night! If this thing is sold for money, it will be priceless!
"The Night Pearl is not a treasure for my water tribe, but on land, it can be described as priceless, Brother Jiang Xian should not dislike it." Suwon waved his hand to his daughter again and said, "Yao'er, go and bring another night pearl from your collection." ”
The night pearl inlaid on this room was originally a pair, which was taken out of a 10,000-year-old oyster by Suwon, and Shui Yao regarded it as a treasure, one inlaid in the room, and the other was collected by himself. But Daddy actually wanted to give Jiangzhou this scoundrel, Shui Yao was naturally not convinced.
"No, that's mine!" Shui Yao pouted and said.
"Go!" Suwon immediately became angry.
On weekdays, Shui Yuan still loves this only daughter very much, but in front of Jiang Zhou, he always has to maintain his face as a father, so he no longer depends on Shui Yao's temperament.
Shui Yao has almost never seen her father angry with her since she was a child, but now she is murdering herself in front of outsiders, and the tears of grievance immediately slipped down on her sweet face.
"Take it, what's the murder!" Shui Yao wiped away her tears and turned away.
"Alas, this daughter is just spoiled by me and disobedient at all." Suwon sighed.
"Captain Shui, since Ling Ai is reluctant to part with love, forget it." Jiangzhou politely said.
"Then what's the matter, I've already said that I'll give it to you, and I'll never take back what Suwon said." Suwon's stubborn way.
After a moment's effort, Shui Yao had already come over with a palm-sized night pearl.
"Here you go!" She put Jiang Zhou's hand on it and said angrily.
Jiang Zhou smiled and took the night pearl, he was very calm on the surface, but he was already happy in his heart. It was the most valuable treasure he'd ever seen.
After a while, a group of merman warriors had already arrived with piles of scales.
Jiangzhou walked out of the house with Suwon's father and daughter, and only after this look did he know that this place was underwater, and the lake was suspended above Shizhang, and under this water, there were pieces of buildings.
"Captain Aqua, how can I take such a large pile of scales?"
Looking at a large pile of scales the size of a shield, Jiang Zhou was worried.
"Oh, I'll give you another storage bag to put your stuff in the storage space as you like."
Suwon took out a cloth bag from his waist, opened the mouth of the cloth bag, and with a thought, the large pile of scales was put into the storage bag and handed over to Jiangzhou's hand.
On this trip to Jiangzhou, in addition to being turned into a snake, the cheap goods and the nine babies were pitted, but it was a blessing in disguise and a few treasures.
After a few polite words, Jiangzhou was about to leave, and Shui Yuan was very polite, but Shui Yao kept a straight face.
Jiang Zhou took out the bottle of rosemary from his pocket and handed it to Shui Yao.
"Well, this one is for you, it's very fragrant."
Shui Yao looked at it and didn't answer.
Jiang Zhou opened the cap of the bottle, and an intoxicating fragrance came to his face, Shui Yao's expression immediately changed, he took the bottle from Jiang Zhou's hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it.
"It smells so good!"
All year round underwater, and there are no flowers and plants in the water, any kind of floral fragrance is a great temptation for Shui Yao, and there is no woman who does not love fragrance.
"The next time we have the chance to meet, I'll give you a variety of different perfumes." Jiang Zhou smiled.
Shui Yao finally had a smile at this moment.
"Really? You're welcome to come often, but bring perfume. ”
"Yes, Brother Jiang Xian, you have to come as a guest often!" Suwon also smiled.
Jiangzhou took his leave and was sent to the lake by two merman warriors.
At this time, Jiang Zhou knew that when the merman was in the water, one pair of legs would turn into a fishtail, and after leaving the water, it would become two feet. This is close to the description of the mermaid during the call.
Since merfolk exist in this world, are there other Western creatures that also exist?
Jiangzhou climbed ashore, and the merman warrior returned to the water, and he remembered that the purpose of this trip was to take the water of Henghu.
With the storage bag, it was much easier to get water, so he directly used the storage bag to absorb a lot of lake water, and then tied the mouth of the bag and began to return to the Honghuang Manor.
The road from Henghu to the return is more than a thousand miles, and this thousand miles, if he walks, I am afraid it will take several months. Besides, there are monsters on the road, which is life-threatening, even if you don't get eaten by monsters, I'm afraid you'll starve to death on the road.
Jiangzhou remembered the bronze medal, with that bronze medal, wouldn't it be possible to directly teleport back to the world of the earth? After going back, wouldn't it be much faster to prepare a means of transportation to bring with you?
Thinking of this, Jiangzhou took out the bronze medal and used his mind for a long time, but there was no reaction at all, and he was still standing in place.
