Chapter 272: Worthy of My Heart
At this time, there were still many merfolk crowded in the swamp.
Ye Xi grabbed the mermaid's slippery tail, climbed onto it stiffly, and then stepped on the mermaid's body in the swamp, jumping back to the moss ground step by step.
He came first, stepping on the ground first, while Aaron escorted Thunder Rock one step late.
In the cold late autumn, the three of them stood on the mossy ground drenched in wet, resisting the mermaid crawling like a demon.
Tingyan avoided the tail flicked by the mermaid, and seeing that there was no figure around, he couldn't help asking, "What about the four people?"
Ye Xi's eyes darkened for a moment, and he said, "...... Let's talk about it later. ”
The three of them fought and walked, Along, who had the highest strength, took the lead in front, Ye Xi broke his tail in the back, and walked towards the periphery of the endless swamp with his back towards the blue and deep mermaid lake like a magic eye.
When they left the mermaid lake more than a hundred meters, there were far fewer mermaids attacking them.
At Thunder Rock's orders, Aaron stunned a merfolk who climbed up, and then left the place with it in his arms.
On the edge of the Endless Swamp.
"Whew!"
The scarred trio finally returned to the field, and after a hard fight, they were all a little exhausted, and collapsed as soon as they stepped on the ground.
A short figure climbed down from a tree not far away, and then rushed towards Ye Xi like a cannonball.
"Your Excellency, you're back!!"
Xiao Xuanling's eyes lit up and she shouted in ecstasy.
Ye Xi knew that Duan Ling should be worried about it this time, and looking at Xiao Duan Ling's red eyes, he couldn't help but touch his head and said softly: "Men don't flick when they have tears." ”
Duan Ling stiffly retracted her tears, and complained loudly with the sharp voice characteristic of a little boy: "Shiying Tongyu, they came out and said that you were swallowed by a big toad, and said that you are dead, my lord!"
Ye Xi withdrew his hand, sighed and said, "They lied to you." ”
He won't hide some dark things from him just because he is young. Because this world is cruel and dangerous, the more you see, the safer you are.
Broken Ling was stunned.
Ye Xi: "Let's go build a fire first, we're a little cold." ”
The three of them crawled out of the lake, soaking wet, and now it was cold, especially cold from the damp animal skin clothing.
Seeing that Ye Xi was covered with scars and his face was pale from the cold, he secretly blamed himself for talking too much, and hurriedly ran away to prepare dry firewood.
The fire was soon lit.
Ye Xi and Ah Long Tingyan took off their coats, set them up to dry around the bonfire, and then sat in a circle around the campfire.
Tingyan looked at the unconscious mermaid and was in a bad mood. This time, not only did he fail to catch a high-level mermaid, but he also lost three slaves, which can be described as a heavy loss, he wanted to lose his temper, but he didn't know who to shoot.
"Did that slave of mine run away?"
Ye Xi: "No, he was killed by the three members of the Gou tribe. ”
The slave, Ah Song, was torn into thousands of pieces by the angry merfolk, and the flesh and bones sank into the mud, so that when the two of them came out, there was no trace of the corpse.
The other three were shocked.
Although Tingyan sometimes can't turn his brain when he is impulsive, after all, he comes from a large tribe, and he immediately understands why Ah Song was killed.
His face suddenly turned iron-blue, his fists were clenched and creaked, and he said hatefully: "Okay, what a hook tribe!"
Originally, he thought that they were forced to release the ropes, but now it seems that they have calculated it at all, and they are afraid that the news will spread, and they will kill the slaves as well.
Broken Ling thought of something, her eyes widened and she hurriedly asked, "Then they said that you are also dead, do you say ......?"
Ye Xi: "That's right, they also did it to me just in case. ”
Broken Ling was furious when she heard this, and the eyes of a little cub who had originally looked very well-behaved suddenly became as hideous as a beast.
Dare to attack their witch! That's the witch that their Xia tribe finally has!
The three members of the Gou tribe came out one step earlier and told him that Ye Xi had died inside, and asked him with a guilty face if he wanted to go back to the Gou tribe with them, saying that it was not safe for him to be alone outside as a first-level warrior...... Unexpectedly, these three seemingly well-meaning people actually intended to kill the witch of their Xia tribe!
Duan Ling looked at Ye Xi's pale lips and scars all over his body, and said aggrieved and angry:
"My lord, why did they want to kill you when you saved them, why did you save that guy named Fu, and he also wanted to kill you in the middle of the night, don't you care about others in the future......"
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, in his impression, he had never seen Wu so embarrassed, all to save them!
Tingyan on the side immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and retorted unconvinced: "Who said that everyone is like the three miscellaneous people of the Gou tribe, and your family also saved me, why didn't I do it?"
Broken Ling is very sensitive now, and he feels that the person he saved is not a good thing, so he immediately glared at him fiercely when he heard the words.
Tingyan had never been glared at by a first-level warrior, and he wanted to lose his temper in anger, but after glancing at Ye Xi, he still held back stiffly, and his baby face was so red that he was puffing up.
Ye Xi looked at Duan Ling patiently and said, "I also saved you, you didn't want to kill me, did you?"
Duan Ling knew that this "you" was referring to the Xia tribe, and he was stunned and immediately stammered: "That, how is that the same." ”
Ye Xi knew that Duan Ling had been staying in the mountains before, and his mind was immature, and he couldn't help but feel resentful when he saw that he had saved people twice and had no good results.
Broken Ling is young, and the three views have not yet grown. Ye Xi was afraid that Duan Ling would take a crooked path when she grew up and become a cold-blooded and ruthless person, so her expression became serious, and she said in a deep voice:
"Broken Ling, there is a saying, 'How can you be as good as you want, but please be worthy of my heart.'" ’”
This means that it is impossible for everything in the world to develop according to our wishes, everything is satisfactory, and we only need to be worthy of our own hearts in the process of doing it.
"You were born from the Firevein Tribe, and you should remember this sentence. ”
Because there were outsiders next to him, Ye Xi changed the Xia tribe to the Yanwen tribe.
The Xia tribe was established by Xia Cang for the human race, if its people are cold-blooded and indifferent to human beings, then he has lived up to the meaning of the existence of the Xia tribe and the ancestors of Xia Cang.
Duan Ling was still young and had not yet fully understood this sentence, so out of respect for Wu, he nodded respectfully and said yes, and then memorized this sentence firmly.
Tingyan and Ah Long, who were listening on the side, were in awe of Ye Xi when they heard this.
Originally, they heard that Ye Xi saved people twice, and both times they were stabbed against the people they saved, but they turned around and saved them, and they thought that Ye Xi was the kind of rotten good person, or to please the flattery of the Lei tribe.
I didn't expect Ye Xi to think so.
Tingyan: "Aren't you afraid that I will also take revenge?"
Ye Xi smiled slightly: "If that's the case, I'm sure I'll send you back to the Mermaid Lake again." ”
Tingyan looked at Ye Xi's smile like this and shuddered for some reason, inexplicably believing that what he said was true.
"But I'm sure you won't. Ye Xi showed a real smile in his eyes, "You also saved me once last night, didn't you?" The mermaid actually doesn't care about the size of the toad's meat, anyway, there is only such a piece of meat caught on the hook, you can go to other places to hunt toads." ”
Tingyan felt a sense of embarrassment after being exposed, the roots of his ears suddenly turned red, and he said angrily: "Whatever you think!"
