"Isn't this a mermaid?"

Ren Pingsheng, who was leading people to conduct research in the coastal area, received the news that Yunmeng County had caught a talking fish, and he rushed here with people.

In order to prevent the fish from dying of thirst, Si Nian also prepared a large water urn and kept it in it.

The merman's hands were tied behind his back, and he could only keep himself upright in the water by flicking his tail, and on the outside of the large water urn, he also buckled an iron cage, which smashed directly into the ground with ground nails, so as to prevent the fish from getting out of trouble.

In order to prevent her from sending ultrasound waves to summon sea monsters, she was also given a steel flail in her mouth. At this time, when he saw Ren Pingsheng walking in surrounded by people, he immediately shook his head vigorously, and let out a "uh-huh" humming and chirping sound.

"Give it to her."

Ren Pingsheng pointed to the flail in her mouth.

Someone immediately ran over and took off the shackle from her mouth.

"You're the biggest official here?"

The merman took a long breath, and when she saw that Ren Pingsheng was next to and behind her, when she was arrested, those big officials who had seen it immediately realized that this should be the biggest official she had seen so far.

Ren Pingsheng sat down on the chair opposite the merman, and did not rush to answer her words, but looked at this half-human and half-fish female fish from the sea with a smile.

Her voice is very good, and although she can understand her speech, her intonation is not like the sound of human speech, but tactful like the sound of running water hitting the chime.

The pitch also seems to be a few more tones than that of people in the northern part of Wuzhou Province, which is obviously not the local dialect.

"Able to speak human language, know who to distinguish from who's official, obviously this race has had deep contact with the human world.

And this dialect is more like the dialect of the south.

Since they have in-depth contact with human beings and have learned human language, it is very likely that these sharks have political and social relations similar to human society in the internal society, which means that these sharks also have certain political tendencies.

From this point of view, is there also human involvement in the war waged by the shark people against Dongyang County? ”

Ren Pingsheng looked at the merman and analyzed it in his heart.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm a little scared!"

The merman spoke.

She had a feeling as if she had been seen through by the man in front of her, and under his piercing eyes, it seemed that she could not have the slightest secret, and everything was exposed in front of his eyes, which made her feel goosebumps rising on her body.

This makes people feel that she is a little cowardly.

Finally, in a terrible silence, the other party spoke.

"What's your name?"

The senior official on the other side asked her.

"Nasha, Yu Nasha."

There is no stubborn resistance and unswerving meaning, the merman Yu Nasha replied honestly.

This is very different from those ordinary sea monsters who are not afraid of life and death and charge to the death.

Ren Pingsheng nodded, regardless of whether the name was made up by the other party or not. The name alone reinforces the suspicion that the other party and humans had close contact with each other.

"Can you write about it?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

A table, pen and paper, were carried into the cage and placed in front of the urn.

Yu Nasha shook her shoulders and gestured that her hands were still tied.

She looked at Ren Pingsheng, but saw that this human official was just staring at her, his eyes were neither sharp nor emotional, and he looked at her indifferently.

Yu Nasha didn't dare to speak anymore, thought about it, leaned down gently, stretched out a piece of her tongue and wrapped it around the barrel of the pen, put the barrel in her mouth, and wrote her name on the paper crookedly.

Although the words are not good-looking, it can be seen that this is the official word of the Jing Dynasty.

Yu Nasha didn't put down her pen and wrote another line of characters under her name.

"What language is this?"

Ren Pingsheng asked the person next to him.

Si Nian replied, "It's the font style of Ciro's side. ”

"It seems that it is still a race of East and West."

Ren Pingsheng gently tapped on the armrest of the chair.

"What is your gender?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

Yu Nasha lowered her head in confusion, looked at the place under her belly pocket woven with colored scales, and looked up at the senior official again.

"What do you see?"

Si Nian glanced at Yu Nasha's chest and said unhappily.

"Oh oh, female, I'm a woman, what a woman. We sharks don't have the hermaphroditic kind. ”

Yu Nasha hurriedly replied.

"What are you among the mermen? What do you usually do? ”

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"We're merfolk······ You call our ethnic group mermaids, and those in the west call us mermaids, and our mermaid clan has more than a dozen tribes in the East China Sea, and the three tribes of Ying, Jiang Nu, and Huanhua are the strongest, and I am the third daughter of the leader of the Huanhua tribe. ”

Yu Nasha poured beans into the bamboo tube and said, not hiding it at all.

"How many do you have······ Individual? ”

Yu Nasha straightened her chest and said proudly: "There are a total of twenty-two people in our Huanhua tribe, because our mother is the most capable merman in the surrounding sea, and our tribe is also the most populous around!" ”

"Hmm."

The tribe of twenty-two people is still the largest in this part of the East China Sea.

But on second thought, these mermen can control a large number of sea monsters, and the war ability they can exert is indeed not weak!

According to the scale of Yunmeng County's siege this time, everyone is equivalent to a group army!

"How many sea monsters are there in your tribe?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"Sea monsters? Are they the ones who can land? ”

Yu Nasha said a little timidly.

Because the topic has reached this point, it has already involved her direct conflict with humans, and for her, the most dangerous inquiry has finally begun.

"Not bad."

Ren Pingsheng nodded.

"These sea monsters are not our race, they are inexhaustible in the ocean. Over the years, there have been more and more such sea monsters, and their intelligence has not increased much, but their size has become larger and larger, and there is that kind of human body and fish head, and I don't know how it became like that.

And after the number of these sea monsters increased, because they broke away from the original laws of heaven and hunted in the ocean, causing the entire sea world to be a miasma, we often drove these sea monsters to kill each other, in order to control the environment in the sea area to be coordinated and orderly. ”

Yu Nasha said.

This was unexpected by Ren Pingsheng.

He thought the sea monsters were one of them.

Now it seems that these sea monsters are the same as the monsters on the earth, after becoming monsters, they will hunt a large number of other animals and human people, if not controlled, they will destroy the biosphere in a short time, and only after the biosphere is readjusted and then stabilized, will a new law appear.

It's just that whether this law is still consistent with the previous mainstream values is not necessarily.

And, more appropriately, these sea monsters are more like species invasions on Earth. Invasive species have flourished, but native predators have yet to react and incorporate them into their diets. Invasive species that thrive and proliferate in large populations can cannibalize, squeeze and destroy the ecosystem.

"We, the mermaids, are able to control these sea monsters. As for controlling the number of sea monsters, it is different.

In our Huanhua tribe, my mother can control 100,000 sea monsters, the eldest sister can control more than 30,000 sea monsters, the second sister is the same as me, she can control 20,000 sea monsters, and most of the rest of my sisters and relatives are below 10,000, and some young sisters can only control dozens or hundreds of sea monsters.

My lord, I'm very precious in our Huanhua tribe. As long as the adults let me go, I will go back and persuade my mother, and my mother will definitely order the withdrawal of the army, and I will talk to my mother more, and live in harmony with the city-state of the adults, friendly and mutual assistance, and form alliances. ”

Yu Nasha finally said.

If it was really like what Yu Nasha said, Ren Pingsheng would believe it.

After all, in a tribe of only twenty-two people, any one of them is a precious treasure.

Not to mention, Yu Nasha, who can still control more than 20,000 sea monsters and is at the top of the tribe.

"Where's your fish that discharges?"

Ren Pingsheng just asked questions, and did not answer any of Nasha's words.

"It's a sea beast, and it's also a sea beast that has changed over the years, but there are very few of these beasts, and I only have this sea beast as a guard.

They are a species capable of discharging electricity, and after the mutation, the electricity emitted is capable of challenging a family of dozens of whales! ”

Yu Nasha explained.

"Why are you attacking Dongyang County? Is it the subjective will of your Huanhua tribe? What is your purpose? ”

As soon as Yu Shasha finished speaking, Ren Pingsheng immediately asked, and threw out several questions at once.

"Huh!?"

Yu Nasha was a little confused by the series of questions.

"It is not the subjective will of our tribe that we fight Dongyang County, mainly because some humans have found our mother with some things, saying that you will discharge those things into our sea area and harm the marine environment on which we live, and we will start a war······

In addition, the sea monsters on the bottom of the sea have been growing too fast for a while, and we also want to consume the number of sea monsters.

We sea tribes are not adapted to the environment of the land, and even if we can survive on land, we will feel less comfortable in the water, so we are not interested in your city-state. ”

Ren Pingsheng frowned, stood up and scolded angrily: "Daze County, more than 1,800 households, nearly 10,000 people were slaughtered overnight, a large number of county seats, dozens of villages and towns, and more than 10,000 people in the three coastal counties of Dongyang County were slaughtered by you. Are you slaughtering nature? Murder into a demon? ”

"Ah······h

Yu Nasha was asked for a while, and Ne said: "It's not all done by our Huanhua tribe, I heard that the Dongying tribe in the northern sea area of our tribe also sent people to participate, they have always been paranoid in their work, and their personalities are also very weird and violent, we and the Jiang Nu tribe don't like to deal with them, maybe these things are done by them." ”

Seeing that Yu Nasha was obviously frightened, Ren Pingsheng sat down again: "Tell me, who came to you with something, and said that you were moved to start this war." ”

"It's a maritime merchant, the Xue family, they often pass through our waters, and several of our tribes have dealt with them before. A few days ago, they came to my mother with some black water, saying that the people on the ground here in Dongyang County were going to discharge these things into the sea.

After we tried it, we found that there was something in the black water, and some small fish and shrimp were all poisoned.

This is something that harms our offshore environment, and we naturally attach great importance to it, and immediately united with the ginger tribe to use a seaweed to explore the offshore water, although the amount in the seawater is very small, but the toxic substances in the black water that do exist.

We followed the amount of these substances and went up the river and found that the more upstream the Liusha River was, the more such substances were discharged, and it was determined that it was a human discharge······"

Yu Nasha saw that Ren Pingsheng's face was getting darker and darker, her voice was getting lower and lower, and finally stopped completely and didn't dare to say any more.

"That black water comes from upstream, what does it have to do with my Dongyang County, you will kill my Dongyang people indiscriminately. What is the difference between this and the Dongying tribe sending people to beat you, and you sent people to kill the people of the Jiang Nu tribe? ”

Ren Pingsheng slapped the table and scolded: "You merman, don't repent!" And I ask you, do you plead guilty? Do you regret the sins you and your tribe have committed? ”

"Ahh

Yu Nasha was startled, cried bitterly and said: "Confess your guilt, regret and regret, and never dare to do it again."

I know that this black water is not discharged by Dongyang County, so I beg my lord to let me go back, and after I go back, I will definitely go to my mother to clarify the reason, stop the war, restrain the sea monsters, prevent them from going ashore, and find a way to compensate us for the losses we have caused······"

"Now, whether the war stops or not, it's not you who have the final say, but us. Even though there are many sea monsters in the sea, you can't control them too far away! My army has come to Dongyang County, and I will arrest your tribesmen one by one, and reunite you in this cell to judge you for your sins! ”

After Ren Pingsheng finished speaking, Yu Nasha waved his sleeves away.

This Yu Nasha seems to be cowardly, but she is actually very smart to protect herself. Maybe it's really the same as she said, the mermaid tribe is sparsely numerous, and the most important thing is to protect yourself after being captured. This can be corroborated by the fact that she did not choose to fight, but ran away as soon as she was discovered.

"Lord, should we talk to these mermen?"

Zhou Ming asked.

Ren Pingsheng's fierce anger in the cell had already calmed down the moment he stepped out of the threshold, and he shook his head: "Zheng Fangxing's third division will arrive soon, and the soldiers of Dongyang County will be strong and strong at that time. Daze County has been destroyed, and the remaining people have all been transferred to Wuyang County.

The army only needs to defend Yunmeng and Fuyang counties.

Instead of asking for a truce, it is better to first wounded, maimed, and afraid of them before the truce!

This is the way to achieve long-term peace and stability. ”

Ren Pingsheng looked at Zheng Shaoguan: "This Xue family, but the Xue family in Fuzhou County?" ”

"Back to the lord, nine times out of ten it is the Xue family, this Xue family says that it is a maritime businessman, but in fact, it colludes with overseas pirates, and secretly does not do less business."

Zheng Shaoguan said disgustedly.

"This Xue family is also Wang Anguo's white glove."

In his previous report, Ren Pingsheng had seen an introduction to the Xue family. This is Wang Anguo's white gloves and money bag, and the silver used by Wang Anguo to train the new army in the south is provided by this Xue family.

"This Wang Anguo, in order to deal with me Ren Pingsheng, he really did everything!"

Ren Pingsheng sighed.

First, he sent the Inhumans of the Inhuman Division to ambush him halfway, intending to take his life.

also instigated the merman in the dark, and did not hesitate to cause chaos in Dongyang County, just to disrupt his development.

"In the past, I thought he was a foolish and loyal person who was loyal to the country, but now it seems that he is just a fly and a dog, unscrupulous person!"

Ren Pingsheng left it behind, just waiting for the next sword and gun to meet.

Coming out of the courtyard where Yu Nasha was imprisoned, Ren Pingsheng looked at Ruan Tang, and the two looked at each other with a wry smile.

The environmental protection problems of Qingcheng Town cannot be left unchecked, and it has to be put on the line.
