Chapter 14: Fourteen Days of Picking Up a Mermaid
When Hanka said that he had gone out to the human world to ask for help, the merfolk were silent.
In fact, the merfolk once thought about asking for help, but the merfolk don't want to believe in humans, in the eyes of the mermaids, humans are cruel and cunning, merfolk are indeed aggressive, but they will not hurt their own people, but humans are different, they are not aggressive but they will also hurt their own people.
What's more, in the human world, there is a saying that "those who are not of my race must have different hearts".
The silence of the merfolk made Hanjia very angry, in his opinion, it was the humans who threw garbage into their homes that would make the little mermaids sick, and make the pregnant mermaids lose their children, so that the merfolk would disappear from this world one day!
Sadly, humans don't know that their garbage has led to the demise of the merfolk race, and no human will be ashamed or weeping for the destruction of the merfolk caused by their littering.
Hanjia's words touched the sacrifices of the mermaid clan, and they slowly told Hanjia about a memory buried in their hearts.
A long time ago, they had a very good relationship with the humans of country Z, they lived next to a village called Qijia Village, which was a natural mermaid harbor, they played and frolicked, and some mermaids even intermarried with humans on the shore, which was their best life.
However, war broke out.
In the ancient times of country Z, there were often wars, but those wars never involved the mermaids, but when the human society was in a drought, the human emperor invited the mermaid sacrifice to help the rain, and helping the human rain was the original duty of the mermaid sacrifice.
At the beginning, the mermaids didn't take this war seriously at all, and the people of Qijia Village didn't take it seriously, but later reality gave them a blow.
This blow made the mermaids see through the human beings thoroughly, and they no longer wanted to believe in human beings, and even the people of the Qijia Village who had intermarried with them were angry.
I don't know when it began to spread the nonsense that "if you eat the flesh of a mermaid, you will live forever, you will not be poisoned, and you will not be killed" began to spread in that war.
At first, the mermaid just smiled when she heard it, because no one believed it, even the people of Qijia Village laughed, they didn't know that the mermaids were just a group of magical creatures, and there was no such thing as immortality, just the slow growth of the mermaids.
Although the lifespan is the same as that of humans, they will look smaller and younger than humans, which is a trait, and they will age slowly, but they don't have as many wrinkles on their faces as humans.
No one expected that it was such a rumor that brought endless pain and even a break to the fish clan in Qijia Village.
On that day, the entrance to Qijia Village, which was difficult to enter, was opened with a cannon, and a group of blue-eyed and yellow-haired people in strange costumes broke in, including some people who looked like country Z, but they were relatively short.
Neither the people of Qijia Village nor the mermaids have ever seen such a group of people, the unique topography of Qijia Village makes them poorly informed here, they don't know that this war was due to this group of strange people, and their eyes are only curious.
What followed was a bloody scene, the mermaids, the people of Qijia Village rose up to resist, and then they were hurt and insulted.
The strongest sacrifice of the year appeared, and she led the old priests to sacrifice their lives, killing all the invaders, reviving the dead and merfolk, and restoring the destroyed houses and the entrance to the Qijia Village, and finally took a second look at them and turned into bubbles and left.
Before leaving, she begged the merfolk in the group to help her take care of her newborn child, and told them that Qijia Village had been sealed, and that it would be when the time came again, but before she could finish her words, she could only glance at her husband and drift away with the wind.
Since then, there has been a fault in the sacrifice of the mermaid clan, and the skills of the mermaid sacrifice have been learned from generation to generation of sacrifices, and the strongest sacrifice and the old priest have died, and the remaining sacrifices can only be put on the shelves by driving ducks.
Originally, this matter passed like this, and although the mermaid clan was sad, it would not be angry with the people of Qijia Village who lived with them.
Time flies quickly, more than 30 years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the mermaid egg of the previous generation of sacrificial children still has not hatched, and the mermaid sacrifices have tried their best to resign themselves to fate, in addition to daily care, they still live in this safe and beautiful place with the people of Qijia Village, but the disaster happened again.
There was a traitor in Qijia Village, and the traitor brought some people with short stature into Qijia Village, wanting to capture mermaids for experiments, but fortunately they were killed by the mermaid clan without success, and the traitors in Qijia Village also died there.
But the egg was gone, and the child of the previous generation was gone.
There were only two mermaid eggs in that issue, one of which was Hanka, and the other was the child of the mermaid sacrifice of the previous generation.
It is very difficult for the eggs of the mermaid clan to hatch, not only the right temperature, but also many necessary conditions, even careful care takes one to two years, and the children of the sacrificial clan take five to ten years longer, and there was even an egg of the sacrificial clan that hatched for nearly a hundred years.
The longer the mermaid's sacrificial child hatches, the stronger it becomes, but the newborn mermaid can't do without water, and once it leaves the water, it can't survive, of course, this does not include children between humans and mermaids, and there are few children between them.
Because of the disappearance of that egg, the mermaid clan hated the people of Qijia Village, saying that they were treacherous, and the people of Qijia Village knew that they were at fault, and even if they killed that family, they could not make up for the loss of the mermaid clan.
The merfolk in the rage went completely crazy, and they set off the waves, wanting to add another layer of disaster to this already ruined continent of country Z.
Eventually, he was stopped by a commander in the human army, whose surname was Yang, and he begged the merfolk not to add another layer of shadow to this land that both humans and merfolk loved, and not to waste the painstaking efforts of the previous generation in vain.
The merfolk were furious, but also disappointed, they no longer believed in humans, so they left the shore with the remaining egg and went to live in the deep sea.
"And what about the mermaid egg?" Hanjia asked.
The priests shook their heads, they had never seen that egg again, not even in the entire Qijia Village.
"Then why did I stay?"
The sacrifices were also very puzzled why they only took one of the same eggs, even if they took one! How come there isn't even a footprint? It can't be the egg that ran away on its own!
If the priests knew that it was indeed the egg that had run away on its own, I wonder if they would have run strangely to study it.
The words of the priests were very firm in telling Hanka what kind of treacherous people were humans, who were not to be trusted, and now they had to turn to them for help.
Hanjia went on his way with the instructions of the priests, and on the day he left, all the merfolk under the sea came to see him off, and Hanjia's father, the high priest of this generation, told Hanjia that the Yang family had said that they could go to them for anything, and they would solve it for them.
Hanjia came to shore with the blessings of his people and the guilt of the little mermaid.
In fact, at the beginning, Hanjia didn't expect it to be so complicated, he had superb force, and he was obviously able to rely on the force value to win, but after thinking about it, he still decided to salute first and then soldier, and Hanjia's force value depends on water, who knows if there is water where the family surnamed Yang lives!
After Hanjia went ashore, he was a little scared and thought, fortunately, he was not impulsive, the development of human society is too fast.
So Hanjia began to eat and live a life of dead skin, anyway, he didn't do much when he was in the sea before, who made him grow up to be good-looking, and his mouth was sweet, even if he was naughty when he was a child, he was still likable when he grew up.
Like Hanjia, who obviously has a superb force value, but still eats and drinks in other people's houses, it makes the priests of the mermaid clan angry, but it can't be changed, who let them spoil it! The bear children who are spoiled by themselves have to carry them themselves.
The priests fainted in the toilet crying.
So have you guessed what Hanka wants those eggs for?
The answer is for the mermaid clan to start a business in the future! Surprised, surprised?
How could a lazy fish like Hanka do it himself! Of course, after waiting for the spawning, follow the fishing team to the merfolk settlements and bring them to the merfolk to raise.
There is no way, after going ashore, Han Jia found that what is most needed in human society is money, just like some time ago, Qi Guanyu reported an account to Han Jia, and it is said that he spent a lot of money (Qi Guanyu deceived Han Jia), and Han Jia has not paid it off until now. (Qi Guanyu just has no money to pay wages for the time being)
As long as Hanjia thought of the mermaid clan coming ashore in the future, he wiped a handful of tears in his heart because he had no money to live in the human world, and instead of supporting a large family by himself at that time, it was better to arrange it for them now.
Anyway, this rat spot is raised in the sea after that, and it has their natural enemies (such as mermaid pranks), which is not farmed, it is wild. Aren't you afraid of a lot of money when the time comes!?
The thought that someone would soon come to raise him made Hanjia suddenly excited.
As soon as Qi Guanyu turned around, he saw Han Jia's energetic appearance, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart that he was so happy just to dispose of a few fish for him! Can this fool be a little pursuing!
Han Jiake didn't know that Qi Guanyu said in his heart that he didn't pursue it, and he was still in excitement.
Qi Guanyu would not know that Han Jia's excitement was not just a few fish, but in order to be able to live a happy life counting money smoothly in the future, and he didn't know that Han Jia would bring him another trouble in the near future.
