Chapter 207: The Dinner Party
The banquet held in Ryugu Castle was very sumptuous, with beautiful mermaids dancing, beautiful mermaids playing musical instruments, and fat mermaids singing.
A lot of delicious food was also prepared for the banquet, some shellfish, fish, and sea beasts.
But King Neptune and Shirahoshi not only did not eat the meat of the sea beast, but even the fish rarely ate it.
This involves a problem, mermaids hardly eat fish, most of them can communicate with fish, a small number of fish people do not eat fish, and most people can't communicate with fish.
Xia Qiu ate the meat of the sea beast, but his expression was a little impatient, he looked at Bai Xing and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"Mr. Xia, why do you still have wrists and feet?"
Bai Xing grabbed Xia Qiu's wrists and feet and looked over and over, and touched the hook claws on it, "There are also hook claws, this is the wrist and foot of the king sour squid." ”
"It's grown."
Xia Qiu ate the meat of the sea beast in one bite, and then said angrily: "You put it down." ”
I saw that Bai Xing was holding a thin tentacle in his hand, and he was gently touching it with his hand.
"Okay."
Bai Xing put down the tentacles in his hand and slowly floated up again, "Shark's dorsal fin, Mr. Xia, you are still amazing." ”
"It's just a little bit of a thing."
Xia Qiu snorted and said, "What a fuss." ”
"Wow, is this a bone plate? And the spikes, which are the tails? It is different from a fishtail. There are gills, but there are also fumaroles, right here. Shirahoshi shouted in surprise as he circled around Xia Qiu.
"Don't touch me."
Xia Qiu pushed Shirahoshi away with her wrists and feet, and glared at her with a dissatisfied expression.
"Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia."
Shirahoshi suddenly floated in front of Xia Qiu, looked at him and said, "What kind of creature are you?" ”
"What am I?"
Summer and Autumn looked at Shirahoshi.
Bai Xing snapped his fingers and said, "You have the mouth of a crocodile, but not a crocodile, and you have sharp horns, a bit like a betta fish." The forehead is a bit like a monk fish. The shark has a dorsal fin and six legs. It's weird, I've never seen it before. It's kind of like ......."
"Like what?"
Xia Qiu looked at Shirahoshi and asked curiously.
Bai Xing thought for a while and said, "I remember that in myths and legends, dragons are composed of many parts, could it be that Mr. Xia is a dragon?" ”
"Dragons? Oh, that's good. ”
When Xia Qiu heard that he was praised as a dragon, he felt beautiful in his heart, and the identity of a dragon could be worthy of himself, especially Jiaolong.
"Impossible, impossible, impossible."
Shirahoshi waved his hands and said, "You can't be a dragon. ”
"Why can't it be?"
Xia Qiu asked with a frown.
Bai Xing patted his chest with one hand and said with a smile: "The one on Dragon Palace City is the dragon, but it is recorded in the classics, how can you look like this, it is not good-looking at all." ”
Speaking of this, Bai Xing's expression froze, and Xia Qiu was furious, "Are you saying I'm ugly?" ”
"No, it's not."
Bai Xing was so frightened that his body froze, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, Mr. Xia, you, you are also very handsome." ”
"You're hesitating, aren't you?"
Xia Qiu glared at Bai Xing, and actually said that he was ugly and couldn't tolerate it.
"Believe it or not, I ate you."
Xia Qiu opened his mouth wide, revealing his teeth.
"I'm sorry."
Bai Xing said with a sad face, seeing that Xia Qiu was still angry, his mouth pursed, and he cried, "Bai Xing made Mr. Xia angry." ”
"Why are you crying again?"
Seeing this scene, Xia Qiu snorted, withdrew his teeth, and said, "Don't cry." ”
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you ugly."
Shirahoshi was still crying.
"You ......"
Xia Qiu was angry and scolded violently: "Don't cry." ”
Bai Xing's expression froze, turned his back, and cried again, "I've been reprimanded, Mr. Xia, please don't reprimand me so loudly." ”
"It's annoying."
Xia Qiu's teeth squeaked, and this guy likes to cry too much.
"Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia."
Shirahoshi patted Xia Qiu's forelimbs, lifted his upper body, and looked into his eyes.
"What's wrong again?"
Xia Qiu looked at her and asked.
Bai Xing asked curiously, "Mr. Xia, did you come down from the land?" You can live on land, right? ”
"Of course, what's wrong?" Xia Qiu asked puzzled.
Shirahoshi asked expectantly, "Then have you ever seen a variety of flowers?" And all kinds of hairy animals, and green forests? ”
"I've seen it."
Xia Qiu said: "There are all kinds of flowers in the place where I live, and I haven't seen anything like that. And there are many islands that have animals on the Great Route, and there is an island where there is a tiger thirty meters long and a giant wolf twenty meters long. There is also an island with dinosaurs. I heard that in the windless belt, there are animals hundreds of meters high on an island, and in the new world, there is an elephant with a city on its back. ”
"It's amazing."
Shirahoshi's eyes were starry, and then he said expectantly: "I really want to see it, but it's ......"
"If you want to see it, you can see it."
Xia Qiu took a bite of meat and said angrily: "Now that there is no Van der Dyken, you don't have to worry about him attacking you." ”
"Nope."
Shirahoshi's head shook like a rattle, and said, "The humans on the ground are very hostile to the fish-people, and think that we are monsters, so it is difficult for us to go to land. ”
"Really?"
Xia Qiu sighed and said, "This is something that can't be helped, human beings are always hostile to foreign races. ”
Not to mention that for other races, even among human beings, they will be hostile to each other.
Bai Xing said, "But how did Mr. Xia do it? ”
"How?" Xia Qiu asked puzzled.
"It's about getting along with humans."
Bai Xing said: "Mr. Xia, you have so many human subordinates, and your relationship seems to be good, how do you get along with them?" ”
"How do you get along?"
Xia Qiu thought for a while and said, "You have to be strong enough to be respected by others." ”
"Really?" Shirahoshi's eyes immediately dimmed.
Although she is the Sea King, she has not triggered the ability for the second time yet, and she cannot control it freely.
Her own strength is weak, and more importantly, her kindness will be her Achilles' heel.
"Forget it, let's not talk about that."
Bai Xing smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Xia for helping to defeat Van der Dyken so that I can leave the residence." I was finally able to go to the Sea Forest and worship my mother. ”
"Sea Forest?"
Xia Qiu raised her eyebrows, and Noah was docked near the Sea Forest.
Noah's Ark, half the length of Fish-Man Island, is big enough to hold itself.
Shirahoshi said with a smile, "The Sea Forest is a forest at the bottom of the sea, and unlike the forests on land, most of it is rocky, and it is located on the seabed in the northeast. ”
"Northeast?"
Xia Qiu nodded, go over and have a look before leaving tomorrow, and maybe you can use Noah as your own car in the future.
"Is Mr. Xia curious about the sea forest?" Shirahoshi looked at Xia Qiu and asked.
Xia Qiu nodded and said, "A little curious." ”
"Then Mr. Xia will go with you."
Shirahoshi immediately said, "I'm going to worship my mother tomorrow morning, and I'll take you over to have a look." ”
"Okay."
Xia Qiu thought about it and nodded her head.
He wanted to see if Noah's buoyancy device could only be dragged by the sea kings and whether it could float on its own.
