Chapter 3: The Unbelievable Wonderland
"Okay, get up, I'm just practicing martial arts freely, and I can do some light skills. Look scares you. Red Scales pulled up the frightened and trembling scholar, "Zimo, you just said that there is something important to look for, I am here to guard, you hurry into the house to look for it, remember, move quickly, I will only give you a stick of incense, we must return to my master before dawn, otherwise, you and I will get into a big disaster, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the gods will not be able to save you." Red Scales whispered.
"Yes, yes, I'll come when I go. Zimo listened to Red Scale's admonition, didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly got up from the ground, tidied up his clothes, and went into the house to get his treasure.
After a while, Childe walked out of the room, holding something like a treasure in his hand, "Red Scales, I found it, thanks to my father's cleverness, he hid it in a hidden place." ”
Red Scales looked fixedly, the thing that Gongzi was holding in his hand was like a small pocket package, what was in the package, Red Scales did not know, but just looking at the cloth that wrapped the items, it was the best embroidered brocade that only found in the palace, and it was difficult for ordinary people to find such luxurious things.
Despite the darkness of the night, with no lights around, Red Scales still saw some clues with his keen vision.
"Childe must not be the son of this family. Seeing the appearance of this package, Red Scale couldn't help blurting out the conjecture in his heart.
"Well, my background has always been a mystery, my adoptive father treated me as his own after picking me up, he was widowed at an early age, had no children under his knees, and always regarded me as his own son. Our father and son lived in poverty, but my father never wanted me to be a suffering child of a fisherman's family, and every day he ate and slept in the open air, in the wind and rain, and suffered all kinds of hardships, but he raised me as the son of a noble mansion.
My adoptive father once told me that he would not let me touch the bag he had hidden under the floor unless I had to, and he also told me to hide the secret of my life and not to tell others easily, and he once told me that I must be the son of a noble family. But who my real parents were, and where they were, was a mystery to me.
Now that my adoptive father is dead, but the murderer is nowhere to be found, I really don't know what I should do next?"
Zimo hugged the mass of items tightly and talked about his past, and after speaking, his voice was already choked, and his face was full of sadness.
"Hey, I didn't expect Childe's life to be so bumpy, but now it's important to escape, let's find out Childe's life story another day, and then track down your father's murderer, right now, the most important thing is to escape quickly, don't let the people in the government arrest you and me." ”
"What the red-scaled girl said is very true, it is Xiaosheng and I am confused for a while, I better follow the girl and run for my life first. Zimo gently wiped his tears with his sleeve and agreed with Red Scales' point of view.
But just as the two of them wanted to climb over the wall to get out of the dilapidated courtyard of the scholar's house, Red Scales had already heard countless chaotic footsteps from a distance.
"Quick, don't let the prisoner go, give me a live catch. ”
"Oh no, an errand has already arrived to arrest us, let's go. After the red scales finished speaking, he couldn't help but drag Childe's arm, and with a light leap, he jumped out of the dilapidated courtyard of Childe's house with Childe.
In the night, Red Scales was almost dragging Zi Mo's arm and running forward, because he was running too fast, Zi Mo already felt like he was about to fly, he couldn't help but close his eyes in fear, and let Red Scales drag him forward like an object.
After passing through countless dark streets and avoiding countless crowded intersections, Red Scales finally took Zimo all the way to the suburbs safely, heading towards Dongting Lake.
The sky gradually brightened, Zimo was tired from being dragged by the red scales, his steps were heavy, he was out of breath, the beads of sweat on his head kept rolling down, and he was already exhausted and didn't want to take another half step forward.
Looking at the red scales again, although she has just been running and walking for so long, she is still energetic, her face does not change, she does not panting, and the fish essence really has a natural advantage compared with people.
"Oops, you Terrans are so vulnerable. Red Scale looked at Zimo's listless and weak appearance, and only felt funny, the physical strength of this Terran man really made her feel speechless.
"Girl, you, what did you just say? I really want to hear you say about the Terran?" Although Zimo was exhausted, but because he was afraid of the pursuers chasing him, he had a string in his heart, and at this moment he heard Red Scale say that the Human Race was fragile, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and looked at the Red Scale girl in puzzlement.
"Oh, it's my slip of the tongue, I'll talk about it casually, you don't know, I haven't been in good health since I was a child, so the master taught me a lot of martial arts to strengthen my body, I didn't expect that the fur kung fu I learned today would come in handy. In order to dispel Zi Mo's worries, Red Scales had no choice but to use his brains and tell a lie to comfort Zi Mo.
"Childe, next, I'll take you to a place, but on the way there, the scenery is a little weird, and you need to be blindfolded. Thinking that he was about to take Zi Mo into the Dongting Lake Aquarium Palace, he was afraid that Zi Mo would open his eyes and see that there were water waves flowing around, and it was the shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Aquarium swimming in the water, which would frighten him, so Red Scale proposed to let Zi Mo blindfold. ”
"But according to the girl's orders, now I have nowhere to stay, thanks to the girl's willingness to save my life and take me in, I am naturally a guest and a host, according to the girl's words. Zimo didn't dare to say half of the refusal. First, he saw that Red Scales had a beautiful and lovely face, and there was kindness in her eyebrows and eyes, and secondly, she saved his life many times and three times, and she was not a bad person, her life was originally saved by the Red Scale girl, and now she naturally has to obey Red Scales.
Seeing that Zi Mo agreed to blindfold himself, Red Scale took out a blindfolded ribbon from his arms as if by magic, and carefully covered Zi Mo's eyes.
Everything was decorated, and she reached out and pulled Zimo's sleeve and whispered.
"Childe, come with me. ”
Red Scales took Zi Mo's sleeve and led him to the shore of Dongting Lake, and then softly recited a water avoidance formula, in the sound of the mantra, the vast and turbulent water waves of Dongting Lake immediately dispersed and retreated, Red Scales gently pulled Zi Mo's hand and pulled him slowly towards the lake.
Zimo didn't feel scared because of the traction of the red scales, so he followed the red scales forward with confidence.
After taking a few steps in the water waves, the red scales changed their mantra again, and the clear and beautiful Dongting Lake immediately gathered again, but this time there was a huge blister that gently wrapped the red scales and Zi Mo, and the blisters were filled with fresh air on the shore, Zi Mo didn't feel anything unusual, and still breathed freely.
With the wrapping of transparent water bubbles, there is no need to walk under his feet, and the huge clear and transparent water bubbles are like a silent boat carrying Red Scales and Zimo, and a gust of wind gently and skillfully rows towards the crystal palace at the bottom of Dongting Lake.
Along the way, there were many people of the same kind of water tribe that Red Scale was familiar with, and when they saw Red Scale bring a blindfolded Terran man to the Crystal Palace, they couldn't help but be shocked, they wanted to talk to Red Scale, but they were stopped by the elf's strange Red Scale smiled and waved his hand.
Carrying the blisters of Red Scales and Zimo, he traveled all the way and quickly drove safely to his destination.
When he arrived at the destination, Red Scale took Zi Mo's sleeve, walked out of the blister that wrapped the two of them, and passed through the thick barrier of the water tribe to a huge colorful and beautiful water palace in the water tribe.
Along the way, countless shrimp soldiers and crabs saw the return of the red scales, and they all saluted the red scales in unison, and the red scales also waved happily to everyone.
It's strange to say, although this red scale is just a small fish spirit in this vast aquarium palace, but few people in this aquarium palace dare to bully her, that is because everyone knows that she has a master who is even loved by the princess of Dongting Lake and the people.
Speaking of the master of the red scales, the turtle mother-in-law who has lived for thousands of years is respected by everyone.
