"Engong, can you put me down first?" A timid voice interrupted the conversation between Li Zhe and Dugu Aotian.

Only cared about studying the deep sea monster, Li Zhe forgot all about the mermaid girl on his back.

"Miss, don't worry, I'll put you down. ”

Hearing her request, Li Zhe hurriedly descended to the surface of the sea and put her into the water.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived in the sea, the mermaid girl turned over, and a fierce man plunged under the surface of the sea and disappeared.

This little girl was not at ease with Li Zhe, so she ran away when she found an opportunity.

Li Zhe shook his head and did not chase after him.

The purpose of saving people has been achieved, Li Zhe doesn't want to dwell on this matter anymore, it is still important to do his own business.

With a wave of his hand, the huge treasure ship reappeared on the surface of the sea.

Li Zhe boarded the treasure ship and continued to move towards the island of no return.

The next morning, Li Zhe stood at the bow of the boat and stretched comfortably in the morning light.

Then, he crossed his waist and shouted to the sea: "Little girl, what do you want to do after following me all night?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow emerged from under the surface of the sea and walked side by side with the treasure ship.

"Don't be a little girl, the little girl's screaming, people have names. People call Xiaoyu. Childe, what's your name?" the mermaid girl raised her head and shouted stubbornly.

"Okay, count me wrong, okay? In the Xiayun Dream Sect, Li Zhe is reasonable, I don't know what Miss Xiaoyu commands?"

"I want to go home. However, I was afraid that I would run into bad people like the octopus monster again, so I wanted to ask Li Gongzi to send me home. The mermaid girl had no scheming, and directly stated the purpose of following Li Zhe.

"If you're afraid of the octopus, aren't you afraid of me? How do you know I'm not a bad person? Li Zhe asked with a smile.

"Actually, I'm not sure. My grandmother told me that there was a group of creatures called humans living on the land by the sea. They don't have tails and can't swim. The most important thing is that human beings are all bad people, and they want me to stay away from them, as if that is you. But my heart tells me that you are a good man. I don't know if you're a good guy or a bad guy, so I'll have to follow you first. While speaking, the mermaid girl's innocent pretty face showed a very tangled expression, which made people laugh.

For a little girl who was not deeply involved in the world, Li Zhe unconsciously felt a little pity and asked, "Where does Miss Xiaoyu's home live?"

"My family lives in the southeast, about 10,000 miles away. How about you, can you take me home?" asked the mermaid with great anticipation.

The place that the mermaid girl said was roughly the same as the direction of Wuhui Island, and Li Zhe had already agreed in his heart.

However, he deliberately sold a pass and said: "It's not impossible to send you home." However, you have to promise me one condition. ”

"What conditions?" asked the mermaid girl cautiously.

"If you're willing to sing to me, I'll send you home. ”

"It's too easy, I promise you. The mermaid girl flicked her tail and happily agreed.

So, in the graceful singing, the two walked together.

Along the way, the two talked happily, and the mermaid girl slowly relaxed her guard against Li Zhe.

With such a wonderful person walking all the way, it also solved the boredom of Li Zhe's journey, and the two got along very happily.

A few days later, Li Zhe, who was enjoying the singing at the bow of the boat, suddenly felt a hint of danger.

There are several creatures of the Spirit Seed Stage, and they are surrounding the treasure ship from all directions.

Li Zheyi stretched out his hand and pulled the mermaid girl to the treasure boat.

The mermaid girl only has the cultivation of the spiritual attraction period, and if it is really a big fight, she has no power to protect herself at all.

Li Zhe suddenly made a move, the mermaid girl was unprepared, and thought that Li Zhe had some bad intentions, and screamed in fright.

"Little girl, don't make trouble, there's an enemy coming. ”

Sure enough, soon eight black spots appeared on the sea, two in groups, surrounding the treasure ship.

Li Zhe put on the brute elephant gauntlet, sacrificed the red python bone whip, and prepared to jump on the top of the boat, ready to find out the intentions of the visitor first.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the black dot got closer, the mermaid girl shouted happily: "Grandma." ”

Only then did Li Zhe notice that all the black spots were mermaids.

The leader is a gray-haired elderly woman, who has the cultivation of the peak of the middle stage of the spirit seed, and should be the grandmother in Xiaoyu's mouth. The other seven mermaids were all young and strong men, and their cultivation ranged from the early to middle stages of the spirit seed.

The alarm was lifted, and the mermaid girl jumped into the water and happily swam to her grandmother.

As soon as they met, the mermaid girl threw herself into her grandmother's arms and cried bitterly.

Grandma comforted the mermaid girl while directing the merfolk to continue to surround the treasure ship.

Through small talk with Xiaoyu, Li Zhe knew that the mermaid clan did not have a good impression of humans.

Therefore, Li Zhe was secretly on guard, but he did not take the initiative to provoke, so as not to provoke them.

The mermaid girl also noticed the nervous breath in the air, and hurriedly told her grandmother what had happened.

After understanding the whole story, Grandma's face finally eased, but she still asked very vigilantly, "Human monk, why did you come to the Angry Dragon Sea. In the last few hundred years, very few humans have come to the Raging Dragon Sea, what is your purpose?"

If you directly say that you are going to the island of no return, these merfolk will definitely think of themselves as crazy.

So, he made up a lie.

"I have something to do to go to Yunzhou, but there are Ten Thousand Beast Mountains on the land blocking it, and I can't pass through. I thought of the Angry Dragon Sea to look for it, maybe there was a way to go. ”

"Then we won't delay Daoyou's actions, thank you for rescuing my young lady and sending her back. "Grandma doesn't have a good impression of humans, so she directly ordered the eviction of guests.

For the sake of the mermaid girl's face, Li Zhe didn't want to conflict with them, so he prepared to leave by boat.

Suddenly, the mermaid girl broke free from her grandmother's embrace and jumped onto the treasure boat.

She bowed deeply to Li Zhe and said, "Brother Li, thank you for saving me from danger and sending me home." This time I sneaked out to play, and grandma will definitely punish me. In a hundred years, I won't be allowed to leave the village again. In the future, if you have a look, you can come to our village and find me. ”

Li Zhe's character does not promise people at will, and after this trip, he will probably not return here for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he replied ambiguously: "If there is fate, we will meet again." ”

Although the mermaid girl was simple, she also heard the meaning of Li Zhe's words and understood that the two might never have a chance to meet again.

In addition to being sad, she shed two lines of tears.

She holds her hands in a bowl shape and holds them in front of her chest.

Two lines of teardrops, gathered on her hand, instantly condensed into a crystal clear, flawless orb.

She sent the jewel to Li Zhe's hand and said, "Little girl, there is nothing to give to Brother Li, just let my tears accompany you." I hope you will think of me when you see this tear in the future. ”

After saying that, she didn't allow Li Zhe to refuse, turned around and jumped into the sea.

"Li boy, I didn't expect your methods to be so powerful, in a few days, I fascinated this little girl with a few words, and even gave you her mermaid tears. Legend has it that only the tears of the mermaid royal maiden can be condensed into orbs, and they can only be condensed once in a lifetime. They will only give it to their crush as a token of engagement. Why don't you go back with her and be a fisherman? Ha ha. Li Zhe's mind once again sounded Dugu Aotian's ridiculous voice.

"Seniors, don't talk nonsense. Xiaoyu is still a child. Her mermaid tears obviously shouldn't have been given to me. ”

For Li Zhe, the mermaid girl Xiaoyu is just a small episode in his journey.

But for some reason, Xiaoyu tied a wisp of affection to herself, which gave Li Zhe a headache.

So, he wanted to return the merman's tears.

"Kid, you're stupid. In terms of age, it's enough for her to be your grandmother. You try to return the merman tears. This is the greatest insult to the merfolk, and you see if she will kill herself in front of your eyes. ”

"Senpai, don't make fun of me. You should understand that the children I am talking about have nothing to do with age, but about the nature of the heart. Since the mermaid clan has this custom, it seems that I can only accept the mermaid tears for the time being. ”

Xiaoyu actually gave the mermaid tears to Li Zhe, and her grandmother looked gloomy.

But the merman tears sent out could not be taken back, so she had to endure it without having a seizure.

Li Zhe stood at the bow of the boat, waved his hand at Xiao Yu in the sea, and said, "Sister Xiao Yu, then we will have a meeting later." ”

In Xiaoyu's hazy teary eyes, Li Zhe drove the treasure ship away gradually.

Looking at the back of the treasure ship, Xiao Yu suddenly shouted, "Brother Li, take care." ”

The shout reached Li Zhe's ears very clearly, but he could only harden his heart and not respond.

Long pain is better than short pain, since it is determined that it is a mistake, then it should be cut through the mess quickly and end it quickly.

After Li Zhe left, Grandma finally couldn't help but reproach: "Princess, you are too lawless." How can you send merman tears to a human being, and the king will punish you heavily when he knows it. ”

"The Queen Mother told me that I could give my tears to anyone as long as I liked. No one can interfere, not even my father. Xiao Yu's face flushed, and she stubbornly contradicted.

Xiaoyu, who has always been weak, was so tough, and grandma was angry for a while.

After a while, she said angrily: "Forget it, don't talk about it, anyway, if you don't send it, you will send it." Princess, let's go home. ”

"Wait a while, I'm going to watch Brother Li go away and go back. Xiaoyu didn't pay attention to her grandmother, and still watched Li Zhe's treasure ship leave.

was repeatedly bumped by Xiaoyu, and grandma finally became angry, and said angrily: "You don't have to look at it anymore, he can't come back alive anyway." ”

"Grandma, you want to hurt him. Xiaoyu was shocked.

Grandma Yin shook her head with a smile and said, "If I don't want to harm him, he will seek death himself." The Nulong Sea could indeed lead to Yunzhou, but that sea area was completely shrouded in a misty area, and the monks could not enter it at all. That kid is not a fool, how could he go to Yunzhou by sea. What he said just now was all a lie to us. In that direction, he must be going to the island of no return. For tens of thousands of years, I don't know how many pretentious Terran monks went to the island of no return to search for treasure, and no one ever came out alive. There are dozens of ancestors who have fallen into it, and what virtue can he do in a small cultivation of a spiritual seed stage, and what can he do as an adult. Eventually, it will also become a ghost on the island of no return. ”

"Grandma, why didn't you say it just now, I'm going to stop him. With that, Xiaoyu prepared to chase after Li Zhe's treasure ship.

Unexpectedly, Grandma grabbed her and said, "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you send the princess back to the palace quickly." ”

Two mermaid guards hurriedly came up, restrained Xiaoyu from both sides, and forcibly swam towards the mermaid village.

Xiaoyu struggled with all her might, but unfortunately to no avail, leaving only crying all the way.
