Chapter 3: Sea Sacrifice

Every year, the town of Matila hosts a sea festival to pray for calm and for fishing boats and cargo ships leaving the port not to be attacked by the Siren.

On the day of the sea festival, the girls and teenagers of the whole town will put on their most beautiful dresses, hold the bright bouquets prepared by their parents, come to the beach to sprinkle flower petals, and reverently kneel on the seawall to sing the "Mermaid Song" to praise the beauty and handsomeness of the mermaid family.

I chose to pray to the mermaid clan because the mermaid is a sea demon royal family, with a noble status, and her nature is not as violent and ferocious as other sea demon clans, maybe she will be merciful after seeing their pious expectation.

Approaching the Sea Festival, the beach is closed, a large number of tourists are pouring in, hotels and B&Bs are in short supply, and the whole town of Matila is lively. The most debated topic among the townspeople is who will lead the dance and who will lead the singing.

All the men of Matilla have a name in their hearts, and the owner of the name has a perfect posture and a voice as touching as if they had been kissed by an angel, but they will never bring it up.

For all the women of the town were jealous of her beauty, and the men who dared to praise her or speak for her would be ostracized by all the women, and only the bard, who did not care about life, and who had no wife and daughter, could not care.

Flower petals flying, long street, Zhang He felt that little Christine's growth environment was really dire, all the women on the street looked at her with jealousy and hatred, undisguised, and proud to say insulting words to little Christine.

Rumors about little Christine are flying all over the sky, among which the most small stories accusing her of seducing men are the most, and they are so eloquent that the man next to her is itchy and unbearable. Especially when the main Christine was not far away, they wanted to run home immediately to find their own sass-old ladies to vent their anger.

Zhang He can't wait for all the people in Matila Town to squeeze out little Christine, being jealous and hated by all women will only make little Christine feel more lonely, the less she has a sense of belonging to her hometown, the more she wants to leave, the more she wants a big brother like herself who can beat and be gentle to take care of her.

"What's the matter with that Asian man, why is he next to Christine?"

"Christine has never been so intimate with a man! the scarf around the man's neck is hers!" said a drunken man. Although he said that he hated Christine, the man's body was very honest, and seeing Christine walking side by side with other men deeply stimulated his possessiveness.

The man next to him looked puzzled. Wow, man, how do you remember it so clearly.

"Hmph, you don't have to think about it to know that you have been seduced, these people in Xianchan Prefecture are all rich Kaizi. The fat proprietress looked at Christine's back and said in disgust.

The sun was shining, the petals swirled in the air, and the little Christine, shaped like mutton fat and white jade, exuded a holy hazy luster, and her long rose-gold hair fluttered in the wind in the fragrance of flowers.

Little Christine smiled, the flowers on the entire long street were eclipsed, and the simple and flawless beauty awakened the men's hearts for their first love and beautiful yearning for love.

The men looked at Zhang He beside little Christine, and their hearts burned with rage, and they were crazy with jealousy, and they couldn't wait to give Zhang He a random punch.

I don't know if that man will be cheaper in the future, but it definitely can't be the yellow-skinned monkey of Chanzhou! Without their help, Christine's bully aunt will let people break his hands and feet!

Christine's aunt and uncle are the richest people in Matilla, controlling most of Matilla's real estate, all the fishing boats are theirs, and in addition to being the most powerful mage in the town, no rogue prodigal has dared to contact Christine.

The men didn't know that Christine's aunt and uncle didn't dare to do anything with Zhang He, because Zhang He had reasoned with them seriously in his own way, and they were convinced, wept bitterly, and knelt on the ground to confess to God and little Christine.

Although he hated Christine and hated himself very much, Zhang He found that the shopkeepers, regardless of men and women, rarely drove people out and did not make his money. He thought he had a lot of backbone.

"Christine, take my arm. Zhang He bent his elbows. Just walking with little Christine, the whole street was already filled with a thick sour smell, if little Christine held his arm, it would be exciting, and the vanity satisfaction was 100% instantaneous.

Zhang He is not afraid of being beaten by the group at all, and if he is attacked by the group, he will have the opportunity to protect little Christine in his arms and have more intimate contact. It's kind of beautiful just thinking about it.

“......”

Little Christine didn't ask Zhang He why, nor did she shake her head, but just glanced at Zhang He and then moved her gaze slightly, as if she was attracted by the three-color rose waterfall hanging from the homestay.

Zhang He's heart was very itchy by little Christine, in the morning little Christine took his arm and set off with him, watched the sunrise on the sea cliff, snuggled together through the boundless darkness before dawn, and waited for the brilliant dawn.

And she obviously doesn't care about evaluations and rumors, why don't you want to, it seems that the favorability is still not enough.

"The waterfall formed by the rose is not just a flower, and those who love flowers understand that this is a wave of the sea of life. Little Christine said softly in standard and pure Chinese.

This poem was taught to her by Zhang He, and she copied it in her notebook and heart.

......

......

......

The full moon hangs high and dark clouds are thick.

Aunt Christine's house is in the heart of the beautiful town of Matila, an area populated by wealthy people and tourists, and full of glittering luxury jewellery cars.

The ladies are holding the dog leash, holding the gorgeous bouquets carefully prepared by the servants in their arms, and the whole body is filled with a rich fragrance, and the diamond crystal earrings reflect the cold light under the street lamp, one step at a time, and the nobility is compelling.

But after little Christine appeared, their crystals and colorful bouquets instantly eclipsed, and the man's gaze disappeared.

The ladies and ladies gritted their teeth and looked at little Christine, and the dog felt the murderous aura of the masters, and barked at Christine three times to show his loyalty. It's not that there are many people, Zhang He kicks their dogs' butts one by one.

On this street where cats and dogs live better than most people, Zhang He stretched out his arm and wanted little Christine to hold it, but little Christine shook her head and refused, which made Zhang He very frustrated.

He thought that his relationship with a foreign girl was good enough, and the most embarrassing thing in the world, except for being seen running naked in the early hours of the morning, should be self-inflicted.

The jade color illuminated by the warm lamp in the window is full and clear. Zhang He wanted to give it to little Christine, but she was afraid that little Christine would give her annoying aunt and "wolf grandmother".

"Little Christine, take my arm. Zhang He did not give up.

This time, little Christine did not refuse, and grabbed Zhang He's arm, and the body temperature and soft elastic touch from the arm made Zhang He shout "vain" in his heart!

Approaching little Christine and sniffing the fragrance of little Christine, Zhang He felt that he had reached the peak of his life.

The men on the street were all looking at him with jealousy and hatred, and sure enough, what better way to fight than to fall in love with a foreign girl.

There is nothing wrong with being a layman, Zhang He has always known what he wants, and he doesn't want to leave regrets in his life, so he will not be willing to miss little Christine.

Of course, he will not use violence or strange love magic, he wants to conquer this exotic girl who is naturally fragrant with his rhetoric and sincerity.

Crape myrtle trees from South Africa fill the streets, and you can find Christine's home by following the petals.

Zhang Hejue's Aunt Christine's home is just where Christine lives, it can't be called home, it's just Aunt Christine's warm family.

Christine didn't take Zhang He to the main entrance, because she didn't live in a villa, she lived in an old wooden house.

The delicacies and fruit wine under the crystal chandelier in the living room have nothing to do with Christine, and the servants will not show a good face when they see her, and will curse her in a jealous tone as a "bad spirit".

The moonlight sprinkled through the window on Christine's wooden bed and the bedding that was as neat as tofu blocks, and the attic was cleaned by Christine, Zhang He didn't see any cobwebs or dust, and all the sundries were packed and labeled.

Little Christine pressed the lamp, but it didn't come on.

"No electricity, no need. ”

Zhang He turned his hand, and a fiery red lotus bud rose in his palm, and the faint light bud flew above the shabby wooden table under the control of his mind, and slowly bloomed after being suspended.

The process of the flame lotus blooming was beautiful, and Christine watched quietly.

After blooming, the lotus flower illuminated the three meters around the wooden table, reflecting little Christine's face.

Christine looked at Lotus, and Zhang He looked at her.

Zhang He believes that he can win little Christine, what if he is not in the hotel, it has no impact at all, as long as he is bold, the sky is the quilt and the ground is the seat.

He liked the fine sandy beach, and of course he would be happy if little Christine wanted to be on the sea cliff, after all, the sea cliff could overlook the whole town, and with his body, he could hold on until little Christine saw her favorite sunrise.

"Christine, where did you go and came back so late! An important guest is coming! Change into the dress I gave you last night! now!" The pig-like howl sounded without warning, ruthlessly breaking the atmosphere created by Zhang He.

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of hurried footsteps downstairs, and the woman's weight must not be underestimated, because the wooden planks of the staircase creaked in pain.

"Then I'll go first. Zhang He's finger tapped the lotus flower, and the moment the lotus flower was touched by his fingers, it instantly withered, leaving only a little spark that was extremely dazzling in the darkness and fell on the wooden table.

The clouds covered the moon, the attic became dark again, and little Christine closed her eyes and opened her eyes to find that the gentle oriental man was gone.

"Bucky, you go up and help her put on her gown and put on her jewelry! right now!" the panting woman stopped under the attic.

She wasn't worried at all that little Christine would dare to be disobedient. Even Christine's wild man is not afraid of her!

Five minutes later, little Christine, dressed in an off-the-shoulder evening gown, left the attic to meet her aunt's distinguished guest, a long dress on the wooden bed that still had a residual smell of warmth.

After Christine left, Zhang He walked out of the shadows, and he never left.

With the character of little Christine's aunt, she will definitely betray little Christine, and he will never allow such a dirty and shameless thing to happen to the holy little Christine.

I think that this distinguished guest is not low, and he can make Wilma and his wife, the two black-hearted and black-lunged fats, forget the lesson he gave.
