Many, many years ago, there was a small fish with a rouge pattern on her forehead who fell in love with the son of a prime minister's family, and she gave up their dream of jumping the dragon gate and flying into a dragon for generations, and instead longed to become a person. She has become an outlier among their fish, and everyone else is laughing at her dreams, but she thinks it doesn't matter, Childe is also an outlier among humans, only he knows that Childe has no ambitions at all, his dream is to be a chivalrous man, go to the end of the world with a sword, and do chivalrous righteousness. She always thought happily that if Childe wanted to become a chivalrous man, she must be the first girl to be rescued by him, so that she could say to Childe shamefully: "Thank you Childe for rescuing me with righteousness, the little woman has nothing to repay, she can only promise herself." ”

Childe's dream is that she listened to what Childe said to herself, how pathetic Childe is, as the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he can't tell anyone around him his absurd dreams, so he can only say it to a fish, but fortunately, this fish can understand him.

Speaking of the second encounter between Childe and Xiaoyu, it was a wonderful chance encounter for Childe, but for Xiaoyu, it was a two-month wait.

She swims in this water every day, and does not dare to leave half a step, because she is afraid that as soon as she leaves, she will miss Childe, so she stays here day after day and waits for Childe, when you are waiting for someone, time is really too slow The whole fish is really boring, she is bored every day spitting bubbles, even how many aquatic plants in the river are counted, many small fish know that there is a stupid fish here, every day waiting for the boy on the shore, Xiaoyu thought to himself, stupid, stupid, anyway, I will wait for him, I'll turn into an adult and stay with my son.

In fact, turning into a human being is not as simple as turning into a dragon, as soon as you are not careful, you will be caught by a fisherman, or eaten by a big fish, the most likely thing is that you have no talent at all, and it is normal to die of old age, sickness, and then turn into a skeleton in the water, a touch of dust, and then enter the suffering of reincarnation, and forget about yourself and your son.

Another boating on the lake, only this time, Childe looked even more sad than last time, the sad Childe accompanied the powerful Prime Minister Father, as well as several colleagues in the officialdom, saying unspeakable words, doing insincere things, even Xiaoyu was aggrieved for him, Xiaoyu followed Childe's boat, jumping three feet high, she saw Childe's eyes flashed a bright color, but quickly depressed, he didn't pay attention to Xiaoyu, didn't look at her again, Xiaoyu was a little depressed, but didn't see the worry in Childe's eyes.

Childe respectfully accompanied these people all the way, Xiao Yu felt sorry for him in his heart, I am clear and windy, why should the childe who looks like a fairy perfunctory these people who are full of etiquette and morality, in fact, they are mediocre people who are male prostitutes and female thieves, just like that Lord Li, Xiao Yuer has seen him go in and out of the fireworks area here many times.

Xiao Yu felt sorry for Childe, and Childe didn't look at her until he was about to leave, Xiao Yu'er thought sullenly, could it be that my charm has declined, and Childe is unwilling to take care of me. The whole Yusheng felt that it was not good, and the more he swam, the more he became more and more uncomfortable, and he actually got into the net laid by the fisherman in a daze.

The fisherman's net tightened more and more, and the little fish flapped its tail desperately, but it was never able to jump out of the net, no matter how spiritual she was, she was always helpless in the face of a creature stronger than herself, and the fisherman tightened the net more and more until the net was retracted out of the water. It clinged tightly to the water remaining in the net, breathing hard, she felt that she was going to be finished, the first time she liked someone, she hadn't caught up with it, so she hung up so miserably, just when she was getting more and more confused, she saw the boy in white rush back, he walked through the crowd towards him, like a dream.

Many, many years later, she watched a movie with humans, the name of the movie is Journey to the West, in the movie, the human woman, the delicate Zixia Fairy, said with such a longing on her face: "My crush is a hero of the world, and one day he will ride the colorful clouds to marry me." Although she knew that it was all fake, this fish that had been transformed into a human for many years was still deceived in the movie theater with a lot of tears, but fortunately, there were many emotional humans, and in the sound of wiping her nose in the movie theater, she was glad that she was not too ashamed.

And hundreds of years ago, when Xiaoyu had not yet turned into a human, she was bought by Childe from the fisherman, Childe put her in a ceramic jar, carefully holding him, he heard the seemingly alienated Childe chattering to her: "Oh, why don't you worry about this little fish at all, you always jump in crowded places, don't you know that they want to eat you?" How did you survive so sloppily, if I hadn't come, you knew you would probably be bought and eaten, but seeing that you are so beautiful, there is no one else who will eat you, but they will lock you in a small fish tank, watch you every day, deprive you of your freedom, just like now, you ......" and carried her to the lake while counting.

Xiaoyu originally warned herself to take it step by step, step by step, and not to scare him, but seeing that Gongzi was about to release her, she couldn't help but blurt out: "I don't want to go back to the lake." ”

Childe was stunned for a moment, with a surprised expression on his face, but fortunately he did not panic. He was looking for the source of the sound, and the little fish spoke again: "Look at me, look at me, it's this fish." ”

Childe lowered his head to look at her, and when he saw that the voice was made by a small fish, he laughed instead, and he said: "I knew that you little fish was very aura, but I didn't expect you to be able to speak, so are you a monster." ”

Xiaoyu listened to his words and thought about it seriously: "It should be counted, but in addition to being able to speak, there is nothing strange about me, and I have never harmed anyone, I only eat aquatic plants every day, not even small fish and shrimp." ”

Childe listened to Xiaoyu's words and smiled dotingly: "Okay, knowing that you are a 'good fish', don't worry, I will help you keep it a secret, but now, you should go back to the lake." ”

"But I don't want to go back to the lake, I want to be with you, Childe." When Xiaoyu heard that Childe was going to put her back, she hurriedly slapped her tail, and the water splashed on Childe's face.

"But follow me, and you'll lose your freedom." Childe was good-natured and persuaded him.

"It's okay, as long as I can follow you." Xiaoyu anxiously expressed his intentions.

Childe frowned slightly, looked at Xiao Yu, seemed to be making some decision, and finally, he made up his mind, and he said to Xiao Yu: "Okay, in fact, I also want you to accompany me, but if you regret it, as long as you tell me, I will definitely let you back." ”

The little fish happily spun around in the water and spat out bubbles.

As the sun sets, the breeze blows, the figures of Childe and Xiaoyu are pulled by the golden sun, and the laughter of Xiaoyu like silver bells is sprinkled on the way home.

"Childe, is it true that you just said that you want me to accompany you?"

"And Childe, let me tell you a secret, in fact, I can cultivate into a human form, but I don't know how long it will take, will you wait for me to cultivate into a human form, and then marry me."

"Xiaoyu, marriage is a big event, you can't be casual, you and I have only known each other for a day." Childe's helpless voice came.

"No, plus last time, it's been two days. The little fish argued.

So, Xiaoyu was stayed back to the Prime Minister's Mansion by the child, he stayed with the Xiaoyu for longer and longer every day, he did fall in love with the Xiaoyu, all the people in the capital are spreading this laughing stock, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion was crazy, fell in love with a fish, and did not hesitate to reject the daughter of the Shangshu family, and completely fell out with the family. Childe was kicked out of Xiangye's mansion, after all, the disobedient son can only become an outcast, and Childe becomes a poor and white pauper.

Childe is happy and comfortable, he takes Xiaoyu all the way, fortunately, the pampered life of the Prime Minister has not turned Childe into a waste, he is superb in martial arts, and has literary brilliance, although the road is bumpy, but it actually made the two of them persevere. Decades have passed in a flash, the Prime Minister's Mansion has declined several times, and finally became a victim in a power struggle, and has become an abandoned mansion, and Childe is already an old man, and time has helped him prove that he is really not suitable to be a brother of Childe, but is suitable to be a ranger.

"The story is over." The little fish interrupted my musings. ’

"No, it's a little bit closer, it's still your end." I insisted.

"Actually, it's nothing more than me dead, and he's dead." Xiao Yu shrank up in pain, and his face turned pale, as if he remembered something painful.

I looked at her like this and wanted to stop her, and if it was painful, I wouldn't remember it. But she ignored me, and she said to herself, "It hurts, it hurts, is it like this when other fish are killed?" But why do I have so much pain? ”

I looked at her expression and carefully analyzed for her: "When you died, did you cultivate into a human form?" With tears in her eyes, she nodded at me.

I wondered, "You have already cultivated into a human form, you are already a demon with spiritual sense, and someone still kills you, this is to be punished by God." ”

She was stunned for a moment, and then spoke in a low voice, I had never seen her so depressed since the day I saw her.

"It was the first day of my human form, I couldn't wait to let Childe see it, but I was too weak to last long, so I had to turn into a fish shape and cultivate in the fish tank again, it just so happened that Childe was very sick in those days, and the neighbors who had received Childe's favor heard the rumors from somewhere." She paused, took a sip of her tea, and seemed to be lost in thought.

I didn't interrupt her, but waited patiently for her to come out of the memory.

She finally came back to her senses and spoke slowly: "The rumor says that as long as you eat the meat of my demon fish, you can recover from a serious illness, and the neighbor Cheng Gongzi is seriously ill and has no time to take care of me, and I am weak and unable to resist, so I killed me and made soup to trick the son into a soup." ”

"I watched all this happen, but I couldn't resist, and after Childe knew the truth, he couldn't accept it, so he committed suicide. Childe and I have helped each other for decades, and we have escaped the struggle for power, famine, war, and plague, but we have not escaped the self-righteous kindness of fools. Childe was also punished by God because of this, and the world was not happy. ”

Listening to her story, I sighed, I looked at Xiaoyu, and said, "I remembered a poem I once read: I am not born when you are born, and I am old when you are born." You hate me for being late, and I hate you for being early. You two are really making people. ”
