639. The second puppet

For terrestrial creatures, the materials on the seabed are precious, and similarly, for the mermaids on the seabed, the materials on land are also precious.

It's just that they merfolk rarely go to land, so they rarely trade and rarely use those materials.

Merfolk are different from elves, they are not a desireless race, they also have greed, and they also like power, wealth, and status.

But because of the existence of the palace, these three are in the hands of the royal family of the mermaid clan, and these mermaids have been instilled with the concept of dignity and inferiority since they were young, so naturally they don't feel anything.

But the mermaids have already left the mermaid race and enjoyed the happiness of the human world, and it is difficult for them to be satisfied with the boring life they have now.

Not to mention Ba already, even if they find an ordinary mermaid who does not have any status in the palace, as long as they are willing to go to the human world, they can also live a very happy life, because everything on them is precious and valuable.

Nothing worthless in the mermaid race can be enjoyed in the human world for several lifetimes, and they can enjoy prosperity and wealth without worrying about food and clothing, and this temptation is believed that most creatures cannot resist.

"They're so stupid......" Luya couldn't help but sigh.

These merfolk are indeed stupid, they yearn for the human life, but they seem to have forgotten a problem...... If the merfolk are so good at eating in the human world, why do they live at the bottom of the sea?

Could it be because the ancestors of the merfolk did not like the prosperity and joy of the human world?

Or is it because they are sea creatures and can't live without the ocean?

If this is the case, with the financial resources and strength of the mermaid clan, they can directly build a marine villa on land, as long as they have money, there is no problem.

But that's clearly not the reason why the merfolk didn't choose to live on land.

Mermaid tears, shark beads, shark yarn......

Under the temptation of interests, if humans knew that the merfolk people lived on the land and lived beside them, then what would they do?

Enslave the merfolk and obtain the shark yarn; Torture merfolk and collect mermaid tears...... These two are already relatively good, but the most terrible thing is to hunt the mermaid and capture the shark pearl.

The value of the first two things is far less than that of the latter.

When people are crazy, they can't think of the truth of 'killing chickens and taking eggs', they only think about firmly grasping all the benefits they can get in their own hands.

Rather than raising a mermaid and being discovered one day, there will be a conflict in force, which may eventually lead to the mermaid in his hands being snatched away, so it is better to kill it and sell it directly.

Although it is very bloody and cruel, this is definitely the end of the merfolk moving to land.

After all, even if they have strength, the population is definitely not comparable to that of humans, let alone the entire continent, and the people of just four or five large cities are enough to make them suffer heavy casualties!

The sea is their territory, but the land is not!

……

……

I talked to Lua for a long time, and the time had come to night.

Luya said that she was going to the outer city to check the guards, and the people sent by Su Yu also came back one by one during this period, until all the people arrived, and Su Yu spent some time organizing everyone to exchange clues together.

"Report to Lord Su, I haven't found anything on my side."

"Me too."

"I have some discoveries, I don't know if it's useful, there seem to be a lot of merfolk gathered there on the east side of the palace, but there are too many mermaids, even if there are invisibility potions, they are easy to find, so I didn't get close, so I don't know what they are doing."

……

At first, the first few people basically didn't find anything, and even if they did, it was meaningless.

It wasn't until the fifth man spoke that he finally said something that lifted everyone's spirits.

"My lord, the area I'm in charge of exploring is the northeast side, it's quiet, there are no buildings and no merfolk, but just as I was about to leave, I saw a merfolk sneaking up on something in that location...... I knew it might not be appropriate, but I dug it up anyway, and if you see it's okay, I'll bury it again. ”

As this person said, before he can be sure that this mermaid is good or bad, his behavior of burying things cannot be distinguished from right and wrong, but the whereabouts of this mermaid are too weird...... Do normal people need to sneak around to find a place where no one is around?

Whoever saw it would definitely think that the other party had a ghost in his heart, so he dug it out after the mermaid left.

However, he wasn't sure what this thing was, so he thought about showing it to the lord, if it wasn't something bad, it might be a habit of others, and he would bury it back then.

"Show me it." After listening to so many people in a row, there were no clues, and suddenly someone said that he had made a discovery, and he also brought something back, Su Yu couldn't help but feel refreshed, and the eyes of others also looked over with curiosity.

If it can, Su Yu still hopes that this thing is not a bad thing, otherwise this trouble is not small, after all, it can be found from today's events that the basket inside the mermaid clan is not small, if there are a few more troubles, it will undoubtedly be worse.

"That's it, I look pretty cute...... There shouldn't be any problems. He said that there was no problem, but he still gave the things to Su Yu, after all, he dug them back to show the lord.

As a result, the moment she saw something, Su Yu was silent instantly, and it wasn't just her, except for the person who dug up the thing, everyone else who saw it was also silent.

It took a few seconds for someone to finally break the awkward atmosphere.

"Are you kidding? You call this spooky guy cute?! I get goosebumps all over my body when I look at it, okay? One person pointed to the doll in Su Yu's hand in disbelief, and the other hand rubbed the goosebumps on his body contrivedly to prove that he was really scared.

"No, I'm not kidding, I really think it's cute, and I'm thinking of finding a carpenter to make a bedside when I go back to the territory!" Seeing this person say scary things with a serious face, everyone knew that he was not joking, but really thought the doll was cute.

Although Su Yu also felt that the probability of having an aesthetically strange person in the team with few people was a little high, but now was obviously not the time to think about this, she directly handed the puppet to Di Luo, whose eyes were almost glued to it.

"This is also a man's curse puppet?" Although it was a question, Su Yu, who was able to see the information, actually knew the answer.
