During the conversation with the Mermaid Prince, Lan Xiaye learned that this year happens to be the time when they become adults.
"Are you all the same age?" Lan Xiaye asked in surprise.
The mermaid prince said matter-of-factly: "Of course, we lay eggs."
"By the way, my princess, what's your name?" The mermaid prince took Lan Xiaye's hand and looked at her affectionately. This distance was so close that Lan Xiaye could even see that he was in the mermaid prince Mo Lan's eyes. The reflection in the colored pupils.
The self that is a little distorted because of the reflection in the pupils.
Lan Xiaye pursed her lips and lowered her head with a shy smile: "My name is Li Hong, where are you, prince?"
"My name is Cuba."
"Cuba, why is there a human standing next to you?" Lan Xiaye asked.
Cuba opened his mouth, and then the whole palace was shaking violently, completely covering up his words.
"Oops." He straightened his body and swam out with a serious face.
Lan Xiaye saw it and immediately followed.
Outside the palace, a gray-white octopus as big as half the palace whipped the palace with its tentacles, smashing the palace made of these crystals into pieces.
The rows of sharp teeth in the mouth of the gray-white octopus salivate at the mermaid.
"It's that nasty thing again!" Cuba muttered in disgust, and gathered with the other mermaids.
Lan Xiaye looked away uncomfortably, and as soon as his eyes touched the octopus, his sanity began to drop slowly.
The octopus's diet is obviously mermaid. The mermaids are too small standing in front of the octopus. More and more mermaids are gathering with weapons.
They picked up the triangular forks and formed a circle to trap the octopus.
The big octopus dispersed the lineup with just a slight twitch of its tentacles, and soon more mermaids filled the gap.
They used sharp triangular prongs and claws to pierce the octopus's body. Their weapons could only damage its skin and flesh, and discharged the scarlet blood, which dissipated with the flow of sea water and merged into the sea water.
"hold head high--"
The octopus was annoyed by these disgusting little mermaids. It rolled up a large number of mermaids with its tentacles and stuffed them into its mouth. It closed its sharp teeth and chewed up the mermaids in its mouth and swallowed them.
At this time, the mermaid queen came out. She swung her fish tail that was too big for her, stirring the sea water and forming a sea whirlpool, which became bigger and bigger.
When the whirlpool became about the same size as an octopus, the Mermaid Queen stopped her tail.
The mermaids who were originally surrounding the octopus immediately dispersed, and the vortex spun down, stirring towards the direction of the big octopus.
The huge suction force rotates the tentacles of the big octopus together, spinning farther away.
The whirlpool took the big octopus away, and the mermaids gathered together and cheered.
Lan Xiaye breathed a sigh of relief and swam to other places while Gu Guba didn't come back.
The palace is very large, and there were originally heavy military handlers in every place. However, the attack by the octopus just now diverted many troops, leaving many places vacant and unguarded.
Lan Xiaye took this opportunity to look around.
She glanced at a treasure house filled with jewels and then moved to another room.
All of these rooms were luxurious. As she wandered around, she looked at many rooms, and she became numb to the luxurious items she saw.
The design of the palace is like a maze, which is extremely complicated and difficult to find the exit and entrance.
He didn't know how long he swam. Lan Xiaye calculated the areas he had walked through in his mind, excluded the places he had walked, and swam to a place with a different design.
This corridor ends in a room with no maze design to exit from, but a solid wall and door.
The door is very tall, and the golden door is tightly closed.
Lan Xiaye immediately smelled something different, swung her body and swam towards the room.
Just as her hand touched the door.
"What are you doing?"
A questioning voice suddenly sounded inside the quiet palace. Lan Xiaye's body immediately stiffened and she turned to look behind her.
A fish tail with raised bone spurs on her back was pressed against her waist. Cuba was floating above the blue summer leaves, his handsome face looking down at her expressionlessly.
Lan Xiaye was unsure whether the other party would kill her, so she immediately took her hand back and smiled weakly: "I'm lost."
"Really?" Cuba waved the fish tail, which wrapped around Lan Xiaye's legs. The sharp bone spurs cut open her legs mercilessly, causing blood to flow out.
His expressionless face was close to hers, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.
If an outsider looks at this distance and movement, it may seem very beautiful and full of love.
But Lan Xiaye, who was entangled, was frightened and felt the biggest crisis since doing the mission.
It was an indescribable horror that could not be touched or looked directly at.
Once you continue to delve into the source of this terror, it seems like you will lose your mind and fall into the abyss.
Cuba was getting closer and closer to her face. For some reason, Lan Xiaye thought of a python that would wrap around its prey like this, and then suddenly open its bloody mouth and swallow the prey.
Now Cuba's behavior is very similar to that of a python. Lan Xiaye can even imagine that this mermaid suddenly opened its mouth and pulled its face to deform.
"Dear, please listen to my explanation." Lan Xiaye lowered his voice and looked at Cuba with a pair of big bright eyes, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light shining in his eyes.
Cuba made a move, but Lan Xiaye was afraid that the other party would swallow her up, so she explained quickly: "I was scared by the big octopus just now, so I hid in the palace, and then I couldn't get out. This place is like a maze. I Suddenly I wandered here, and then you came over.”
"Really?" Cuba said expressionlessly.
"Of course!" Lan Xiaye said sincerely, lowering her head shyly, avoiding Gu Gu's eyes: "Can you let me go? I'm not used to being so close to others."
Cuba was silent for a few seconds, looked at Lan Xiaye up and down with a strange look, and slowly loosened the fish tail wrapped around her.
Lan Xiaye's legs seemed to come alive, with blood flowing. Later, he felt the pain of blood blockage and the pain of being cut open by bone spurs.
She lowered her head and saw that her pants had been cut into strips by bone spurs. As the seawater flowed, blood flowed out of the wounds and dissolved in the seawater.
"Sorry." Gu Gu put his right hand on his chest and looked at Lan Xiaye's wounds sadly, "I accidentally hurt you."
He has returned to his affectionate and harmless appearance. Although it is very strange, this is undoubtedly the safest for Lan Xiaye.
She acted with Cuba very skillfully: "It's okay, can you take me back and help me give me medicine?"
"Of course." Gu Guba showed a charming smile again and took Lan Xiaye's hand, "I will take you back."
They were getting further and further away from the door behind them. Lan Xiaye caught a glimpse of silence at the door from the corner of his eye, and his eyes deepened.
