Mermaid Island is deserted, losing the lively scene it used to have, and there are no more people standing guard.

Qi Zhiming saw the elder and hurriedly gave a salute.

The elder looked at him with a smile: "Zhiming is back?" The skills have improved a lot! This is your friend, right? You may be seated. ”

I thought that the Elder would be angry that he supported the merfolk to live separately on other islands, but now it seems that he is too worried.

The elder took the pith and energy liquid handed over by Qi Zhiming and carefully put them away.

"Elder, how are the people living? Do you come back often? ”

"In the beginning, I used to come back often, and I had to go back to the island once every few days, but now I haven't been back for many days. However, there are a few couples who have just returned and are playing on the island. Judging by their complexion, they should live well. I've got them coming, and they'll be there in a moment. ”

"The view is also very good."

"My old man figured it out, and at that time he was really confused, and insisted on living together. Now seeing their elated appearances one by one, especially better than before, everything is relieved. ”

"The elder is always concerned about the safety of his people, and this is right. Thanks to Brother Xi for letting the Sea Clan leave a place for the people to recuperate, the danger will no longer exist. ”

"Thank you a lot."

Xi and the few people who arrived first sat at the stone table and sipped fragrant tea, and when they heard the two talking about themselves, they just shook their heads, and did not take credit or answer.

After a while, several couples followed the big black one in.

Qi Zhiming looked at a few people, and found that the faces of the clansmen were full of happiness, and his heart was happy for them.

No matter what the final fate of the mermaid clan will be in the future, the happiness of the clan in front of them is even more precious.

Looking at a few clansmen who were chattering around Gou Hong and talking non-stop, he asked a few men from human society, "How are you living here?" Are there any difficulties? ”

Several men said that everything was fine, the living materials were abundant, the food and clothing were worry-free, the environment was beautiful, and they were very satisfied.

Qi Zhiming quipped: "You don't need a huge bride price, you picked up a beautiful wife for nothing." You don't have to live in a small house with a large mortgage, and now you are the owner of the island. You don't have to look at the leader's eyes from 9 to 5, you can have enough food and clothing without crowding the bus to work. In society, you may not be able to accomplish the goal of life if you struggle to die, but you have now achieved it, and you are still very young. There's a lot of good time to squander, and all that's left is to be fit and live a long life. ”

Several men had a good impression of Qi Zhiming, and they were about the same age, so they talked to each other.

asked Qi Zhiming again and again which island he lived on, and he made an appointment to have a happy get-together.

Qi Zhiming said that he lived far away, and he would definitely come to see everyone when he had time.

The people made a fuss for a while, and then left.

······

Qi Zhiming asked, "Elder, how long do you think this status quo can be maintained?" ”

The elder smiled and said, "The world of young people, my old man doesn't understand. You're about the same age, and you can better understand what they're thinking. Didn't you say that they would be fit and live a long life? Do whatever you want! My old man fully supports. ”

Qi Zhiming touched his nose, pondered for a while, and said to Xinyi: "Xinyi, do you have any superficial exercises suitable for their cultivation?" Give them a copy and don't let them wander around all day with nothing to do. ”

Xinyi wanted to shake his head, but when he saw Qi Zhiming staring straight at him, he immediately understood that the master had some wild ideas, and it would not work if he didn't take them out. You can cultivate yourself, where can you use any books and secret books? The superficial exercises were hundreds of years ago.

But Xinyi also knew the truth of pressing one level at a time, and turned to the thin man and said, "You copy down the introductory exercises, and you have to be detailed!" ”

The thin man immediately got up and agreed.

Qi Zhiming didn't pay attention to this matter anymore, and talked to the elder about the open sea.

The elder was taken aback, and asked again and again, regardless of his gaffe.

Qi Zhiming answered one by one, describing in detail all the processes from the discovery of the lizardman to the fight in the cave, the formation, and the return. and the treatment that he and others did later, and then told me about the discovery of humans in the cave.

The elder closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, then said slowly: "The entrance to the outer sea is far away from here, and it will take more than a month at the speed of ordinary clansmen. My old man has been there before, it was a long time ago, and it took more than a month to run with all his might, but as for the open sea you mentioned, he has never been there. ”

"Your father-in-law and Brother Jiang have lived in the open sea for a long time, and they have not found anything unusual. Oh, Xi Xiaoyou, as the king of the sea, has many subordinates, and he has not found any outsiders. That can only be said that the incident happened recently. ”

"You're right to set up formations around the cave. According to you, it will not be easy for you to return to the earth. That lizardman king is no match for you. His subordinates are not as good as him, and many lizardmen appeared up at once, and it is likely that before you blew up the cave, there was some clinging to the cave, or it may be that like you, there are advanced means of transportation. ”

"If it's the latter, then there's trouble. In an instant, you can hit a thousand miles with one blow. This sea is bound to be bloody and rainy, and there will never be peace. ”

"Since you're on the island near the cave, you haven't found any lizardmen. There's a good chance they're not coming up yet, but it's only a matter of time. ”

"The human you mentioned is in that cave, and that's a big problem! With the greedy nature of those people in human society, I am afraid that not only will they not be able to live in peace, but they will definitely treat us as experiments. Then you can't live, you can't die. ”

"The Great Spirit Gathering Array you built near that cave also has great benefits. The aura is absorbed and weakened by the formation, that is, there is a gap in the enchantment, and the leakage of the aura will not be too obvious, and it will not attract the attention of the world.

"It's imperative to guard the cave and find out where the barrier is broken. In the past, it was not difficult to gather the clansmen to cast spells together and find the broken barrier. Now most of the people are pregnant, and they can't do the law. Zhiming can try it with the Nine Star Wheel. ”

The fat girl's little eyes kept scanning the elder's face, secretly calculating: "This old man has been talking for a long time, but it has no effect at all. Leave yourself and your clan clean, and put a big hat on your uncle who must be responsible.

Thinking of this, Deng Shi was unhappy: "You old man is so unreasonable, my uncle is kind enough to discuss with you, but you put all the responsibility on your uncle, and you have been crooked for a long time, and you don't want to care about anything at all, you are so thick-skinned!" ”

As soon as the thin man heard the fat woman speak, he knew that something was wrong and went to pull the fat girl.

The fat woman was articulate, dodged a step, and had already finished her words in one breath.

The thin man had to sigh and scolded: "Fat girl, don't be rude to your seniors. ”

The fat woman snorted, and her round body only turned, and she hid behind Xinyi.

The thin man glared at the fat woman, and gave a deep salute to the elder who closed his eyes and was silent: "There are a lot of elders, and the sister has no words, and the younger generation has apologized on her behalf." ”

The elder opened his eyes, smiled and said, "The old man is corrupt and incompetent, he should be scolded, and Xiaoyou doesn't need to be like this. Zhiming should have taken on this important task and was duty-bound. ”

Gou Hong couldn't help but say: "Old guy, don't rely on the old and sell the old, I won't reason with you about this." My two sisters-in-law have a son and a daughter, let's talk about what gifts to give! ”

The elder looked at Qi Zhiming inquiringly.

Qi Zhiming said with a smile: "Yexiang gave birth to a son, named Qi Gui. The little woman gave birth to a daughter, named Qi Pan. It's been more than a month. The name was taken before the last time I went to rescue Gou Hong, and it was dangerous at that time, so I gave it a random name for the sake of a smooth trip. ”

The elder's face suddenly bloomed, his eyes were wide open, and he stared at Qi Zhiming for a long time. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "Everyone, if you don't get drunk today, hurry up and prepare the banquet." Haha, the old man has a successor, and there is a successor! Haha······"

A few people looked at the elders who looked like crazy, and those who knew the inside story understood.

The elder led the mermaid clan, and no offspring was born for many years, which made it difficult for the mermaid to exist in the future. Now, when she hears that the princess has given birth to a child, and is still a son, how can she not be overjoyed? After all, the continuation of offspring is no longer a heart disease for him for many years.

"All of you have gifts, and today is a great joy, a great joy! Gifts can be picked at will, one per person, limited to tea. The elder was overjoyed, and he was even generous.

The elder took a deep breath and spewed a jet of water onto the stone wall at the end of the hall.

Where the water flows, all kinds of rare treasures displayed on the shelves are presented in front of you. It's as clear as if you're in it, as if captured by a high-definition camera.

Qi Zhiming glanced at the stunned Xi and understood that there were still many mysteries in the mermaid clan that were unknown to others. Although it has declined, it has also been glorious.

I didn't have time to think about anything else, so I joined the crowd of people who were looking at the treasure intently, and watched it carefully.

In the end, I chose an old book that seemed to have gone through an unknown number of years.

The yellowed paper, a stack thick, with "Miscellaneous Records" written on the cover, and the handwriting is also a little blurry, and it is really difficult to identify if you don't look at it carefully.

Everyone chose what they liked, and the elder asked the clansmen to fetch them one by one.

Some rejoice, others dismay, but there are also those who swap each other.

In short, it was still fun, and everyone was happy. Having received a rare gift for nothing, naturally there is no reason to be unhappy.

Everyone looked at the gift Qi Zhiming chose and laughed.

"Miscellaneous Stories", just look at the name and know that it is an idle book. No matter how old it is, it's still just an old idle book.

The elder and the letter looked at Qi Zhiming and the ancient book, but did not speak. Know that this man always acts unexpectedly.

The banquet was served, and everyone drank very happily, each with their own joy.

Gou Hong drunkenly asked the elders for gifts for Qi Zhiming's three children.

The elder just said that he wanted to meet, and after the meeting, let the children choose by themselves, and then he didn't talk to Gou Hong again.

It was getting late, and the elder was still talking to Qi Zhiming, asking him to bring the child as soon as possible.

Qi Zhiming didn't care, and under the elder's advice, the aircraft slowly took off and left Mermaid Island.
