Zhu Dashan was stunned for a moment, but just shook his head, "How is it possible, what does it have to do with me, I have never seen any undersea whirlpools, and the bracelet is not mine." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Zhou Shu nodded, what Zhu Dashan said naturally would not be a lie, but the whirlpool ...... He unconsciously looked at Jiao Ling, "Jiao Ling, what else do you know? If you can say it, you might as well say it, about the vortex and the bracelet." ”

"Okay. ”

Jiao Ling nodded slightly, she took off the bracelet, and said softly, "This bracelet is called the Star Bracelet, which was handed down by the ancestors of the mermaids. ”

"Star Bracelet?"

Zhou Shu was slightly surprised.

"Well, because it can attract the starlight in the sky, it is very beneficial to the mermaid clan, and there is ......" Jiao Ling paused for a moment and smiled softly, "There is a story in it, I don't know if the benefactor is willing to hear it, it is a bit long." ”

The two nodded together, "Of course." ”

Jiao Ling smiled slightly, and said very gently.

Six thousand years ago, an envoy from Liuyun Palace came to the ancestral land of the merman.

At that time, the merman clan was protected by Liuyun Palace, and every five years, Liuyun Palace would send an envoy to collect a batch of shark beads, Ning Xingcao and other materials from the merman as the cost of continuing to protect them, also known as Liuyun Gong.

This envoy may have a grudge against the saint at that time, and he was very violent, so he directly increased Liuyungong by three times, and also asked the merman to pay it off within a day, and he would kill five people in more than a day.

The merman clan couldn't get together so many Liuyungong, so they went to see the envoy to ask for leniency, but they were beaten up by the envoy.

A day passed, the merman clan only made up half of the number, and the envoy killed five mermaids mercilessly, and a few dozen mermen tried to resist, but their ability was really insufficient, and they were quickly suppressed by the envoy who had already been seventh-order, and the vast majority of mermen were cowardly and inactive, they just endured it and were silent.

Hearing this, Zhu Dashan couldn't help but scold, "There is such a thing, Liuyun Palace is really hateful!"

Jiao Ling nodded lightly, her eyes were a little gloomy, "The merman clan has many disasters and difficulties, and many times they will encounter similar situations, and the violence is not only the Liuyun Palace, alas, others are very at fault, but we mermaids themselves are too weak and kind, and we don't know how to be self-reliant and self-reliant, which is also an important reason, to survive and continue at the bottom of the sea, if you want to have a status and not be bullied, you can't do it without enough strength." ”

Zhou Shu nodded, "At that time, the palace master of Liuyun Palace, as well as the mermaid saintess, would never sit idly by and watch the clansmen be bullied, what did she do?"

When she found out, she persuaded the palace master to punish the envoy, but it had already happened, and it was not of much use. ”

Jiao Ling smiled faintly, "In the past, many merman saints also struggled for the merman clan, but most of them became real princesses, and they wanted to impress the palace master of Liuyun Palace by themselves to change the fate of the merman, but how could that be done, it was really a bit naïve." ”

"The real princess?"

Zhou Shu was slightly stunned, then nodded, "I understand." Indeed, if you want to change your fate in this way, it is impossible, even if the palace master is moved by the tenderness of the princess, he can only change the situation for a while, and if you want to change for a long time, you can only make your own decisions. ”

Jiao Ling's expression was slightly condensed, and he said softly, "What the benefactor said is exactly what Jiao Ling thinks." ”

Zhu Dashan couldn't help it, "Then what about later, how many mermaids died?"

Jiao Ling continued, "Those are the five. ”

The next day, when the envoy was about to continue killing, a submarine whirlpool suddenly appeared in the ancestral land.

Just when the sea clan was surprised, an old man came out of the whirlpool, his face was quite regretful, and he muttered, "Isn't it here, it failed again......"

The old man was obviously a human immortal cultivator, and when the envoy saw it, he immediately stepped forward to make a move.

But the envoy didn't expect that his seventh-order sea clan was not the old man's opponent at all, and after only a dozen fights, he was injured and unable to fight again, so he could only flee in a hurry.

It is difficult for the mermaids to get rid of it, and they are happy in their hearts, and they all thank the old man.

After the old man understood the reason, he sighed unconsciously, "I can't imagine that there are such cowardly races at the bottom of the sea in such a cruel seabed, but it is rare, don't you know how to fight, and watch your own people die? Although you are inferior to him, you also have a fifth and sixth order, and the number is a hundred times that of him, but you are willing to give in, sad." ”

Mourn its misfortune and be angry with it.

The mermaids were silent and speechless, they were accustomed to peace, and they were also accustomed to cowardice.

"Since you have done it, you must do it to the end, and you can't leave trouble. ”

The old man left after a few words, and after a short time, the envoy was captured by him, and the old man forced him to swear in public that he would not violate the merman again, and then let him go.

The mermaids were grateful to Dade, but the old man insisted on not accepting it, but faced each other coldly.

At this time, a mermaid woman suddenly stood up, hoping that the old man would teach them the skills of self-improvement and no longer be bullied.

The old man smiled with satisfaction, "This is the right way. ”

He left a lot of Zhang Yujian, as well as a bracelet, which is now in Jiao Ling's hand.

"The name of this bracelet is the Star Bracelet, you mermaids make good use of the starlight, and it is of some use to you, but the greater use is not here," he said, he took out a jade bottle, cut his fingers, and dropped a few drops of blood into the jade bottle, facing the merman's puzzled gaze, he said very cautiously, "When you encounter a great crisis that cannot be reversed, drop a drop of blood on the star bracelet, and there will be an undersea whirlpool, which will take you out of trouble." ”

"Remember, it can save you three times, but it can't change your fate, it's all up to you. ”

After speaking, an undersea whirlpool appeared in front of the old man, and after the old man walked in, the whirlpool also disappeared.

Hearing this, Zhou Shu had a feeling that his doubts were about to be solved.

Zhu Dashan said unconsciously, "That old man is a chivalrous man, didn't he leave a name?"

Jiao Ling shook his head, "He didn't say it, but there is a Zhao character on the star bracelet, which should be his surname." ”

Zhu Dashan said again, "What about a few drops of blood?"

Jiao Ling sighed softly, "I'm ashamed to say it, I'm really sorry for the old benefactor......"

It didn't take long for Liuyun Palace to investigate the matter, and the mermaid people insisted on it for a long time, so they told the reason, and handed over the few drops of blood, leaving only the jade slip and the star bracelet, because the woman holding the jade slip and the star bracelet was unwilling to hand it over, and the saint was present at that time, played a round field, and took the star bracelet as his own, saying that it would be kept by the saint in the future, and the Liuyun Palace also agreed and no longer pursued.

The rest of the matter is even more tasteless to say.

The jade slip that the merman woman desperately left behind, few mermaids went to study and practice seriously, and it was shelved in the cabinet within a few years, hidden in the temple and ashes, until many years later, it was found by the young Jiao Ling.

"In those jade slips, there are not only magic tricks, but also a lot of human history and stories, so that Jiao Ling can understand many truths from them......"
