Zhang Wencheng was so frightened that he turned around and ran away, but after just a few steps, a ethereal singing sounded from behind.
Yes, the mermaid started singing.
Her singing voice is so unique and alluring.
Zhang Wencheng suddenly stopped and became confused.
Seduced by the singing, he turned around and walked towards the mermaid step by step.
The mermaid just came out of the water. Her hair was wet and hanging behind her back. Her delicate and beautiful face made people's hearts beat. He moved his mouth and hummed softly, like a dream.
Zhang Wencheng slowly stretched out a hand towards her.
Then he took the mermaid home.
Then he fell madly in love with this mermaid.
Of course, most of his liking is due to temptation.
The mermaid touched his lap and said delicately: "I will be your wife and we will never be separated for the rest of our lives. Are you willing?"
Zhang Wencheng nodded without hesitation.
"I do. I will love you and protect you forever."
In this way, he and the mermaid began to live as a couple.
It was a little uncomfortable at first, but gradually I became more and more unable to extricate myself.
He once asked about the origin of this mermaid, and the mermaid said that she came from the deep sea, but because the ocean was too polluted by humans and contained a lot of raw sodium, it was no longer suitable for mermaids to survive.
Some capable mermaids dive deeper into the ocean floor.
But a weak mermaid like her can only come to land to seek a living environment.
He even discussed with Zhang Wencheng the movie "The Mermaid" filmed by Star Master, and said that the love between the two of them was as beautiful as the love between the male and female protagonists in it.
Zhang Wencheng was moved to tears.
What surprised him was that this mermaid could not only cook, but also do housework, sing, massage his back, and take a bath for him. She could do everything.
Zhang Wencheng soon became immersed in the gentle land of the mermaid and couldn't extricate himself. Even his career was abandoned. He didn't leave the house every day, just getting tired of being with the mermaid.
After about a while, the mermaid asked to meet his friends.
Zhang Wencheng was shocked.
If his friends knew that he had a mermaid at home, wouldn't he be in trouble?
If word of this gets out, the mermaid will definitely be captured for research. After all, this is a new species.
The mermaid said: "Put me on your human clothes. I will retract the fins under my tail and put on my shoes, just like the mermaid in the Star Master movie. Others can't see it."
The mermaid prayed in every possible way, saying that this was too boring, and that she wanted to have more contact with humans so that she could adapt to life on this land.
Zhang Wencheng agreed.
After dressing up in disguise, it turned out that she was not a mermaid from the outside.
She put on a tight-fitting long skirt that covered her ankles, and put on shoes underneath, making her look slim.
Then Zhang Wencheng told his friends that he had a new girlfriend and was getting married soon, and asked them to come to his house for dinner and a meeting.
So that night Zhang Wencheng and the mermaid prepared a table of meals and invited a dozen friends to dinner.
Those friends were amazed after seeing this mermaid. Of course, they did not realize that it was a mermaid. They only thought that Zhang Wencheng's girlfriend was very beautiful and special.
This dinner was very pleasant, but I didn't expect that it would be the beginning of tragedy.
After the dinner party, Zhang Wencheng's friends began to die one by one.
They all died suddenly and violently. After death, the corpse quickly turned into a mummy.
The patrol felt that this matter was strange and conducted an investigation, but found nothing.
Zhang Wencheng didn't expect such a thing to happen, but he didn't think about the mermaid at all.
In his opinion, the mermaid was so gentle and kind, how could she harm his friends? Something must have happened to his friends, so they turned into mummies one by one. For a while, he even worried about whether he would become a mummy.
Until one day, when he went out to buy things, he met an old man in gray robe on the street.
Although the old Taoist was dressed in rags and looked unattractive, he had an aura about him, so he stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Wencheng.
Zhang Wencheng asked him why? He pulled Zhang Wencheng to a remote corner and said directly: "You have a strong evil spirit in you. Have you encountered anything recently? Or encountered something unusual?"
Zhang Wencheng felt that this old man was crazy.
Demonic spirit? Where does the evil spirit come from, most likely it is a money scam.
He pushed Lao Dao away and left, but Lao Dao stopped him again.
"In the past month, at least ten people around you have died, and the deaths were bizarre."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Wencheng was immediately stunned. He thought of his friends who had turned into mummies.
Seeing his reaction, the old Taoist knew that he was right.
"Did you know that the deaths of these people are inseparable from you, and that you even indirectly killed them?"
"You, you are talking nonsense, when have I ever harmed them?"
"Although it didn't directly kill them, it was caused by a certain monster around you, and the monster aura on your body also came from that monster."
Zhang Wencheng said with all his heart that the monster the old man was talking about couldn't be a mermaid, right? Because there are only mermaids around me.
But then I thought about the fact that the mermaid is not a monster, but just a mermaid. How can anyone say that it is so evil?
The old Taoist seemed to see what he was thinking and continued: "Since she is a monster, she must have cast a magic spell so that you cannot tell that she is a monster. You must remember that when something inconsistent with the norm appears around you, there must be something wrong. Weird."
The old Taoist took out two talismans and handed them to him.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it yourself. You can press this talisman under your pillow. This will keep you awake and see clearly the true face of that thing."
"If you want to stay completely awake, then crush this talisman into pieces and swallow it."
"This other talisman is for you to save your life. If something unexpected happens, you can immediately put the talisman on your forehead to save your life."
"That's what I'm saying. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, it all depends on your luck."
After speaking, the old man shook his sleeves, turned around and left.
Zhang Wencheng looked at the two talismans in a daze, thinking that he didn't take any money, so wasn't he a liar?
He muttered in his heart and wanted to throw the talisman into the trash can, but then he put it in his pocket.
There are some things that it is better to believe than to believe that they are not. Moreover, his friends did die in strange ways, and the accident only started after a dinner party at his home.
Of course, he still didn't want to admit that this matter had something to do with the mermaid. After all, the mermaid was his wife, so gentle and kind.
