Chapter Twenty-Seven: The First Arrival in Mantis
"Sarhan, tell me what the hell is going on!"
The city lord's wife is really angry, this is a matter that has been said a long time ago and will not interfere with Eric's feelings. The city lord of the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info is now forcing Eric to marry Carol, if Eric likes Carol, it's fine, but Eric obviously doesn't like Carol, how can he still force him to marry Carol!
Speaking of Carol, the city lord's wife is actually no stranger to this girl. Carol's mother, Prine, and the city lord's wife used to be neighbors, and the two were married one after another, married one after another, and became pregnant one after another. But it was just a joke between the women's families, and they never said it to anyone but themselves.
Later, the child was born, and it was really a boy and a girl, and the city lord's wife also joked that she would prepare a big gift for Carol, the future daughter-in-law. Later, Sarhan was elected lord of the city, and the wife of the lord of the city devoted herself to her husband and children at home. In the same way, Arrahand was busy with business, and Pullin was very busy running the life of the family by herself. The two barely saw each other again.
After all these years, with the lessons of Eric's childhood, the city lord's wife has never made any decisions about any of Eric's affairs. Even in the past few years, Eric has grown older, but he still hasn't found a suitable daughter-in-law for himself, and even if the city lord's wife is in a hurry, she has never asked.
"This ...... This ......" The city lord was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he couldn't find the right words to explain it for a while, so he had to keep "this ......" non-stop.
The city lord's wife took Eric's hand and looked at the city lord coldly, "Okay, you don't want 'this ......'." Tell me, who else knows about this. β
"I only consulted with Arahand. The lord replied cautiously, "Arahand is quite willing to do this." Except for the two of us, I only told Eric about it, and I didn't tell anyone else. Arrahand promised me that Eric wouldn't say anything to anyone, including Carol, until he nodded. β
"You discuss other people's marriages, and you don't even tell them, you two are really a good father. The city lord's wife said coldly, "Okay, you don't have to worry about this, I'll go and tell Arahand." It is believed that he is also not willing to marry his only daughter to someone who does not like his daughter. β
"Kavna, no. The city lord said busily, "This ...... No way...... Eric must marry Carol's. β
"Why not?" the city lord's wife's face did not change in the slightest, and she still looked at the city lord coldly, "You tell me clearly, why not?"
The city lord looked embarrassed and said with a smile, "Kavna, this ...... Let's go home, okay? This isn't the place to talk. β
"No!" the City Lord's wife was very tough, "You are here to give me ......" Eric on the side gently shook the hand of the City Lord's wife, and the city lord's wife shook her head slightly when she saw herself. The city lord's wife received Eric's hint and changed her words, "It's so late, let's go home first." This day was tossed, and I was exhausted. β
After speaking, he pulled Eric away, and after walking a few steps, he looked back at Li Yiheng, "You can go with you." You've been here for so long, and your aunt hasn't spoken to you properly. β
Li Yiheng looked at Eric, who winked at him, "Okay." β
In the city lord's apartment, the city lord and the city lord's wife were talking in the study, and Eric and Li Yiheng were sitting bored on the sofa in the living room.
"Did you do it on purpose?" asked Li Yiheng, looking at Eric who was in a daze. Eric glanced at Li Yiheng lazily and nodded, "Otherwise, how can you come out?"
"Just for this?" Li Yiheng couldn't help but be a little amused, "More than that, right?"
"I have something to ask you, of course I have to get you out. Speaking of this, Eric looked like a matter of course again, caught a glimpse of Li Yiheng's expression, and said with a smile, "How can you be so comparative?
"Of course I'll believe what you say. Li Yiheng replied as a matter of course for Eric, "Your acting skills, the actor is willing to bow down." However, you are so sure that your mother will intervene, just go to her directly, why do you have to come to such a show. β
"If it's so late, I'm going to look for my mother, and I'm sure to alarm my father. Eric glanced in the direction of the study and replied, "Father can guess what I'm looking for my mother for, do you think he'll let me see her?"
"Yes. You can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone, no, it is three birds with one stone. Li Yiheng leaned over to Eric, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?" But first of all, if it is a comparison of the little shell in the streets of Fulatu, there is no need to talk about it. β
"Even if you are willing to do it, when you compare it, you don't know what year or month. Eric glanced at Li Yiheng with an idiot look, "Maybe by then, I'll already be in the ground." β
Li Yiheng punched Eric in the back and scolded in a low voice, "Then you should be clear." β
"All of the raw materials for the process of Uratu come from the bottom of the sea, and there is one person who knows these things very well. Eric said as he pulled the small shell out of his pocket and looked at the light.
Well, Li Yiheng understands this time, all the raw materials of the process of Muratu come from the bottom of the sea, so those craftsmen will naturally know all kinds of things on the bottom of the sea, just ask them, then there is still a need to compare.
"Then what are you asking me for?" Li Yiheng gritted his teeth and asked, "No, you want me to go to the bottom of the sea for you and find Lisa, right?"
Hearing this, Eric looked at Li Yiheng with appreciation. Li Yiheng suddenly understood that he had guessed correctly, "I'm not good at water, and I don't know the way." β
"But I can only look for you now. Eric said, "I know you have a way." β
Before Li Yiheng could say anything more, the little twitter in his arms had already jumped out and circled around Eric excitedly.
Eric held out his hand, and the little trumpet landed on his hand, "You miss Lisa too, don't you?"
"Twitter-"
"You see, I miss Lisa. Eric looked at Li Yiheng pitifully. Li Yiheng impatiently grabbed Xiao Ji back from his hand, "Do you know the way?"
"Twitter-"
"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Li Yiheng became even more angry, raised his hand and slapped the chick's head, "I knew that you could find a way to send Lisa home, and I should have sent her home directly when I was in the sea." Otherwise, where would there be so much. β
"Twitter-"
Eric took the aggrieved little thorn from Li Yiheng's hand and rubbed the place where it was beaten by Li Yiheng, "I'll write a letter now, and you can help me send it to Lisa." β
"What about Carol?" Li Yiheng called out to Eric and asked, "What are you going to do with Carol?"
Eric returned Xiao Ji to Li Yiheng, "If I don't want to, my mother will help me." Also, Carol is a good girl, and I'll make it clear to her. β
With Xiao Ji, you don't even have to go to someone to check and identify the little shell that Lisa dropped. Xiao Ji didn't admit that he could find Lisa's way home at the time, in fact, he couldn't blame it, the monster who wanted to catch Lisa outside the glue net was still there, didn't he kill himself by sending Lisa home at that time?
Underwater, Li Yiheng is still wrapped in the bubbles spit out by Xiao Ji, Li Yiheng doesn't have to work hard at all, Xiao Ji will take him away. Looking at Xiao Ji who was walking with him in front of him, Li Yiheng smiled happily, "For the sake of you working so hard, I don't care about you." β
This time underwater, he didn't encounter the monster from last time, Li Yiheng leisurely looked at the fish and shrimp swimming outside in the blister. I didn't see enough of it last time, but this time it was long enough, and Li Yiheng can be regarded as a feast for his eyes.
Xiao Jing did know the way to Mantees, and knew how to get closer. Li Yiheng looked at the fish swimming outside the blister all the way, and before he knew it, he had been taken outside of Mantis City by Xiao Jing.
From a distance, the city of Mantis looks like a boxy box, but without a roof. The streets and alleys inside are crisscrossed and crisscrossed, and under the action of the seawater, the buildings look crooked. Looking at it this way, it is somewhat similar to the above floating diagram.
Li Yiheng wanted the chick to swim in with him, but Xiao Ji ignored Li Yiheng, took Li Yiheng to find a hidden place, and hid Li Yiheng.
"Are you going to go in by yourself? It's inconvenient to take me with you, isn't it?" Li Yiheng looked at the bad environment around him, and asked Xiao Ji very sadly while looking at Mantis not far away.
"Twitter-"
"Okay, then you go and get back quickly. Li Yi shrank sideways, and the blisters also shrank a little, completely hiding. Looking at Xiao Ji's appearance, it should be very familiar with this place, since this is the case, Li Yiheng can only listen to it.
Xiao Ji spat another bubble at Li Yiheng, and the bubble surrounded Li Yiheng again. Xiao Ji flicked his tail and swam towards Mantis.
The city of Mantis is built in the water, surrounded by sea water on all sides, and naturally there are fish that can swim in and out, unless it is a large fish such as sharks that will be stopped or shot, and the small fish will not care. Just like the little tuck, the little troll looks like a small fry, and of course the guards guarding the city will not pay attention to it.
Xiao Ji swam in all the way unimpeded, but where to find Lisa, Lisa is a princess, and will definitely live in the palace. With a flick of his tail, he headed for the palace.
Xiao Xiao looked at the royal palace below for a while, the palace is located in the center of the city of Mantis, there are at least a thousand rooms, which one will Lisa live in?
But no matter what, you have to look for it. Xiao Ji swam into the palace with a flick of his tail, and when he entered, he realized that the actual palace was much more difficult to find than it looked from the outside. Xiao Ji searched one by one, yard by yard, and searched for more than a dozen yards but did not find Lisa.
Just as Xiao Ji was hiding behind the reef to rest, he suddenly heard a familiar laughter, yes, it was Lisa's voice. Xiao Ji followed the sound and looked for it, and sure enough, he saw Lisa. Lisa was sitting on a reef, laughing and laughing with the mermaids around her.
"Sixth sister is talking nonsense again......" Lisa laughed as she leaned on the shoulder of the mermaid next to her, "I'm going to tell the big sister ...... later"
Instead of swimming directly to Lisa, Xiao Ji swam behind the mermaid opposite her, constantly spinning in circles. It's a pity that Lisa was smiling happily and didn't notice Xiao Ji at all.
However, the mermaid next to Lisa noticed Xiao Ji, "Hey, where did this little fish come from? β
Her words attracted everyone's attention to Xiao Ji, and Lisa saw Xiao Ji, "Yes, what a cute little fish." With that, Lisa stretched out her hand to Xiaozi, who obediently swam to Lisa's hand.
"Looks like this little fish likes you very much. The mermaid next to Lisa looked at the little twitter in Lisa's hand and said enviously, "Why doesn't it like me? β
"Come on, you touch it, it's very good. Lisa reached out to her to touch her hand, and she rubbed her hand obediently.
"Ah, it's rubbing against me. β
"Fifth sister, look at you and be happy. β
It turned out that next to Lisa was the fifth princess Lini. Lini took the trumpet from Lisa's hand, "It's so cute. Lisa, shall we raise it?"
As soon as Xiao Ji heard that Lini wanted to raise herself, she hurriedly flicked her tail and returned to Lisa's hands. Seeing this, everyone laughed again, "Lini, people don't like to be raised by you." β
Xiao Ji rubbed Lisa's hand vigorously, Lisa felt Xiao Ji's hint, and said goodbye to the others with a smile, "I've been out for so long, I'm a little tired, I want to go back and sleep for a while." β
Lini on the side patted Lisa's shoulder very understandingly, "You must have been scared last time you went out, and you get tired so easily." Let's go, I'll send you back. β
In Lisa's bedroom, when Lini left, Lisa couldn't wait to sit up, "Xiaoji?"
Xiao Xiao swam over in response, "Twitter-"
"Li Yiheng is here, where is he?" Lisa was very excited when she heard that Li Yiheng was coming.
"Twitter-"
"It's easy, I'll just bring him in. Lisa got up and changed her clothes, and headed for the city gate with the little trumpet.
The guards guarding the city had already been instructed by the queen not to let Lisa go out alone. Lisa looked at the guards who were blocking her helplessly, "Then I'll wait here, okay?"
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, please. "As long as Lisa doesn't leave the city, where she's waiting, the guards won't care.
After a while, Xiao Ji took Li Yi and swam over. The guards couldn't help but laugh when they looked at Li Yiheng floating in the blister, but they didn't dare to laugh in front of Lisa.
Li Yiheng entered the city and found that Mantis looked similar to Furatu from a distance, but the closer he got closer, the more he found that Mantis City was not as simple as it seemed.
From a distance, the city of Mantis looks like it was built on the bottom of the sea, but it is not, it is built on a large area of coral, nearly 100 meters from the bottom of the sea. Many of these buildings were built with some modifications made of coral, and some even hollowed out large corals and made some decorations in them.
Because mermaids swim in the water, neither houses nor roads need to bear too much weight, so houses built on coral can meet the living requirements of mermaids. In the same way, the road in the city of Mantis is also equivalent to making a look, paved with water and grass, and it is just a show that it is a road.
Li Yi floated horizontally in the blister, looking at the floating road under his feet, he couldn't help but want to step on it. However, I was helpless about what I was doing now, and as soon as the blisters burst, I couldn't stop breathing, and I couldn't swim far.
From the moment Li Yiheng appeared, someone had already reported to the queen. As soon as Lisa walked outside the palace with Li Yiheng, Liya had already greeted her with someone.
"Li Yiheng, we meet again. Leah's face was a formulaic smile. For Li Yiheng, she always has a trace of mustard.
Li Yiheng didn't mind, and responded with a smile, "Yes, we met again." β
"Pleaseβ" Leah's etiquette was not warm, but it was standard. The mermaid behind her lined up a path, and Liya personally led Li Yiheng into the palace.
