The abyss of the green lake is a very beautiful place.

The blue waves are sparkling, the lake water is clear, and the most important thing is that the aquatic plants are abundant, and the fish and shrimp raised are very fat.

We, the mermaids, have lived here for generations.

The elders of the clan have taught us since childhood that the humans outside are cruel, they will hunt and kill mermaids, eat our flesh, and drink our blood.

Among them, the monks are the most greedy and hateful, because when we encounter ordinary humans, we can still eat them, but if we meet powerful monks, we can only be slaughtered.

Legend has it that the outside is a terrible world, and if you are not careful, you may lose your bones.

Therefore, the elders of the clan have been telling us not to step out of the barrier easily.

But occasionally there were disobedient mermaids, either out of curiosity or for some other reason, who walked out of the abyss of the Green Lake, and then I never saw them come back.

The elder said that it must have been eaten by the monks outside.

After listening to this, I became even more convinced of the idea of dying in the abyss of the green lake.

I really don't know how those guys' heads grow, it's really stupid, I know that there is danger outside, and I have to go out.

Is there such a delicious whitebait out there?

When I bit the whitebait in my mouth and squeaked and disdained those fools, one after another mermaids turned out their legs and walked away from the abyss of the green lake.

They have one more stupid reason: they like humans.

I don't know what the allure of that two-legged creature is.

It seems to me that human legs are so delicate that they can't swim or fight, and I can gently snap them off when I slap them with a fishtail.

In fact, those of the same race who fell in love with humans never returned.

I often wonder if they were eaten by the humans I liked.

Sure enough, it's all stupid.

I wouldn't be stupid.

What a good place in the abyss of Qinghu, I want to live here for the rest of my life, marry a beautiful merman girl, and have a few more little mermaids.

Although the hateful fellows all said that I was delusional, they whispered behind my back that I had baldness, and that I lost my scales every day, and that one day the scales on my tail would fall off and I would become a bald-tailed merman.

How can these ignorant guys understand, I'm just changing the scales.

With the scales removed, my tail will be more powerful, I can swim farther, and I can even easily kill a water moth.

Of course, my mother told me this, and she said that my father could do it, and she also told me to keep it a secret and not to tell other mermen, because normal mermaids don't need to change scales.

Only a shark like my father and I can.

Although I was born without a father, this does not affect my imagination of him, in my mother's description, he is as powerful as General Qingyi who led our clan to defeat the evil Jiao and recapture our waters a hundred years ago, and is a hero.

I will definitely become a hero of the mermaid clan in the future.

However, I do look ugly, and the pretty mermaid girls will swim away when they see me.

I have a big forehead with a misshapen bulge on it, which is ugly, and this is what sets me apart from other mermen.

I tried to cut it off, but it was so hard that it didn't move at all, and after a few attempts, nothing changed except that it hurt me to death and add a few ugly scars to my forehead.

My teeth turned out, and even if I closed my mouth and didn't speak, I could still see the fangs sticking out from the corners of my mouth.

Although my fangs were sharp and could easily tear apart my prey, the girls didn't like it, they said I was scary.

No mermaid girl would like me, and I felt like a failure.

In fact, I thought that a manly hero, who is good-looking and can't be eaten, strength is the last word. I think there will always be a girl who doesn't mind how I look and then finds my good in me.

My strength is very strong, and in the entire Qinghu Abyss, no merman can beat me.

But wait, wait, wait, wait for me to become the general of a clan, and still no merman girl likes me.

I thought I would be lonely for the rest of my life.

……

Until one day, a very beautiful immortal appeared in the abyss of the green lake.

Allow me to call him an immortal, and I swear that all the beautiful mermaids in the entire Qinghu Abyss are not as good-looking as he is alone.

Although the elders say that he is a monk, he is not the same as the murderous and greedy monk of legend.

He didn't hurt us.

The immortal was very powerful, and as soon as he waved his hand, the most majestic and mighty merman warriors in our clan were overturned to the ground.

The immortal paced, his white robe unstained, as if it were the cleanest color in the world, and his eyes were clear and translucent, more beautiful than the most beautiful stones at the bottom of the lake.

"Are you the ugliest merman?" The immortal asked.

I nodded subconsciously.

If other people said that I was ugly, I would definitely ignore him, and if I was in a bad mood, it would be possible to beat him, but when the immortal asked this sentence, I was thinking, the immortal's voice is really good.

……

Later, I was taken by the immortals to a mountain, which is the place where the immortals lived, very beautiful, with misty clouds and mist and fairy energy.

There is also a merman girl in the immortal's house, although she is younger, she is also extremely beautiful.

Unexpectedly, the purpose of the immortals to bring me here was to let that mermaid girl marry me.

I'm quite against arranged marriages, really.

But it's okay to look at that girl so good-looking, and think about grievances.

What's more, she is an apprentice of an immortal, and if she marries her, she may be able to see an immortal every day.

In other words, there are so many sharks in the abyss of Qinghu, and the immortal singled me out, does he also think I am special?

What happened after that, it made me very angry-

That merman girl is also an unavoidable vulgarity, she dislikes me for being ugly and beats me.

I originally intended not to worry about the girl, I have been used to it since I was a child, since she doesn't look down on me, after being angry, this marriage will naturally be stopped, after all, I am also a general of a dignified family, how can I force others because a girl does not want to marry me.

Of course, the reason why I was really angry was because I found out that the immortal actually liked the merman girl.

He chose me because I was ugly......

I'm hurt, really.

In the years after returning to the abyss of Qinghu, he has not eased up.

I think I'm definitely in love with the immortals......

More than ten years later, when I finally mustered up the courage to walk out of the abyss of the green lake, thinking that I would tell the immortal no matter what, I loved him, but I never found him again.

On the Jade Void Peak, things are not people, and the immortals are gone, and the beautiful merman girl is gone.

Whether they're together or not, I don't know.

But in my selfish heart, I still hope that there is no one together.

On the way, I met an uncle with horns on his head, who was very nice and caught me a few fish to eat, all of which were new varieties and tasted very good.

It seems that in addition to the immortals, there are still other places worth nostalgic about, at least the fish is good, and the uncle is also good.

I decided to stay a little longer.

……

Uncle has a good ability to catch fish, and he is also very handsome, but his brain is not very good, so he actually called my son.

I beat him up......

I can't just take advantage of me because I ate a few fish for free! You actually call me son? You are the son, and your whole family is the son......

Hey?

How did the bulge on my head sprout?

(⊙v⊙)

It seems to be a ...... Horn?
