16. Water monkeys
In this world, a city is a country, and it seems that Koi City is indeed a vast territory.
"Nan Xun, you're tired today."
Nan Xun, who had worked hard, nodded, "I'm not tired, I'm not in good spirits, I didn't sleep all night last night." ”
After speaking, he also looked at He Ruo with a pitiful look.
"Is this blaming me?"
He Ruo smiled and said, "Then you go to make up for sleep, people who don't get enough sleep will become stupid." ”
"Together."
"No, no, no~ each sleeps his own."
"And I'm not sleepy yet, I want to go to the deck and see the sharks."
Nan Xun was silent for a while and said, "Sharks bite. ”
"Won't it?"
"Sharks aren't afraid, why are you afraid of caterpillars."
The subtext is that this woman's brain circuit is really weird.
"Uh~ That's a good question because I can't explain it either."
It may be that people with curiosity are not afraid of death.
The two of them went to the deck together, looking at the blue sea and blue sky, and He Ruo saw a huge shadow swimming with the boat in the water.
Dolphin? Big sharks?
"Wow, what are those?"
Nan Xun pouted, "Sea monkey." ”
"Huh? Is there really such a creature? ”
Nan Xun whistled, and it didn't take long for someone to bring up a large basket.
Nan Xun took it and waved at the man, and then the two of them were the only ones left on the deck.
He Ruo smelled it, it was a good smoked ham. A basket full of them.
Nan Xun handed the basket containing the ham to He Ruo, "Throw it away yourself." ”
"Okay."
He Ruo took a ham, thicker than her arm, and threw it under the water.
Before the ham touched the water, something that didn't know what it was flew up, grabbed the ham and ran.
The other Mizukage began to chase it frantically.
He Ruo didn't see it too clearly, but he saw that it was black and not slippery, and it was the size of a six- or seven-year-old child.
He Ruo threw another one, and was quickly snatched away by the legendary water monkey.
This time, the two of them fought for the smoked ham, and there was a constant squeaky and fighting sound.
He Ruo became more and more curious, "Come out." ”
She held the bottom and poured a basket of ham down at once.
This time I saw it clearly.
The water monkeys scrambling for steamed buns expose their upper bodies to the water.
They have a poodle-like face, a pointed nose, sparse hair, somewhat bat-like ears, large eyes with no eyelids, and very sharp claws.
The front paws are slightly longer than the hind paws.
He Ruo's intuition is that this thing is very dangerous, cannibalism of the same kind, and he can kill him for a ham.
After scratching and scratching, the corpses of water monkeys were already floating on the water.
He Ruo regretted it a little, and he would not have fed it if he had known.
Sins, sins, sins.
"Nan Xun, don't look at it, let's go back."
At this time, Nan Xun noticed that there was a water monkey in the water, staring at the basket in He Ruo's hand.
There was a lingering smell of smoky ham on it, and this thing had a very good sense of smell.
Nan Xun said, "Stand back." ”
Before He Ruo, who was unresponsive, didn't know what was happening, he saw a black shadow stepping on the corpse, boarding the hull of the boat, and flying up.
Nan Xun hugged He Ruo's waist and led her to dodge the water monkey's attack.
Claws strike.
Nan Xun blocked it with his arm, and then, the black sleeve was cut by the claws, revealing the bloody arm.
He Ruo exclaimed in surprise and pulled out the sword at Nan Xun's waist.
A trick at the water monkey shuttled with a jade girl.
The water monkey had one of its front paws cut off.
Then another move swept across the fallen leaves, and the water monkey was split in two and fell on the deck.
He Ruo flexibly turned a wrist flower and returned the sword into Nan Xun's scabbard. The clothes didn't scratch his waist at all.
Nan Xun looked at He Ruo and couldn't believe it.
