Is it due to the divine power of the Dragon Balls, or are there other reasons? She doesn't know, but she has destroyed her own value in the eyes of humans - her value as a shark - more thoroughly than she expected. She succeeded, and she was almost crazy with grief.
. She is still alive, trapped in a small space of darkness. The shuttle has been destroyed, and even if she wants to pierce her throat and kill herself, she has no sharp weapon to use.
Under the grief of countless pains but no gains, she burst into tears.
Did she cry? She thought so. In all the years she had lived, neither she nor her tribe had ever seen anyone secretly weep for any reason, with tears forming beads. But she was in too much pain, too much suffering, too wronged.
No matter how much I cry, I can't cry away the misery of these years. Being far away from home and being with my tribe
The friend left without saying goodbye, having long forgotten the taste of freedom. Even her appearance was probably like a pile of gold in the eyes of those people, and no one cared what she looked like. Nowadays, she cannot live or die, and she cannot even live or die.
The power was handed over to other people's hands.
What had she done wrong to deserve such an unfair punishment?
She cried day and night, and the tears never condensed into beads, but seeped into the dragon beads she held tightly, and also wrapped the outer layer heavily.
The journey has finally reached its end.
The moment the box was opened, Guan Bian was so shocked that he cursed. They clearly saw that what was put inside was a mermaid, but at this moment, it was just an ordinary, half-dead woman, even so skinny that she had no human shape. How could they interact with each other?
Someone with sharp eyes caught a glimpse of what the girl was holding and ordered her to hand it over. Of course the girl refused, but how could she keep the last treasure the dragon gave her?
She had only one option left.
The girl covered her mouth tightly and swallowed the dragon ball.
Suddenly, the sky became dark, and the wind and rain came heavily. The dark clouds almost overwhelmed the royal city, and the wind howled so fiercely that people could not stand, and they had to cover their heads and faces to avoid being injured by the violent raindrops. People fled in all directions, and the officials
He also forgot about his duty and didn't care about the strange person or shark in the box.
The girl escaped. She jumped into a nearby ditch, swam down the river, and rushed to the sea. Her body, squeezed dry by time, came back to life like a dead tree at the moment it touched the water. The water became
She lost her fins, her wings, and her strength. She worked day and night without even feeling tired. The fish around her hugged her one after another, as if they wanted to give her a ride.
Finally, she returned to the depths of the sea. It was her dream home.
Her family members, whom she had not seen for a long time, rushed up to her, and the girl stretched out her hands eagerly.
What greeted her was a sword and axe.
The girl had no idea that she was already in the shape of a dragon at this moment. How could her tribe recognize her like that?
She begged and screamed until she lost all strength, her whole body trembled, and she spit out a large mouthful of blood.
From the pool of blood, a blood-red dragon ball rolled out.
"...So she went through many obstacles, returned home, and was beaten to death by her own relatives?"
Bai Ya sat under the water, frowning, looking up at the group of swaying sharks. Each of them had solemn expressions, as if they were struggling to reveal a secret that had been buried for many years to a stranger.
"Listen to me - she was not beaten to death. According to rumors, the corpse actually looked like a human being." The orange-tailed middle-aged shark sighed and further explained, "She is no longer a shark.
, lost the Dragon Ball and turned back into a human form. Under the deep sea, she choked to death as a human."
This was even more dramatic than the former! Bai Ya opened his mouth, and after a long while he said dryly:
"No matter how magnificent the stories in the folk tales are, they are nothing more than this."
"This story is so mysterious that it has been passed down to this day. Even we don't know how true or false it is."
"Although it has a beginning and an end, it's quite similar. But... so it's because of such an unknown story that the two of you have developed a grudge that is so deep that it is still unresolved?" Bai Ya pinched the bridge of his nose, "So...
The name you can’t say is dragon?”
"Indeed. If the name of the dragon clan is spoken in our language, it is likely to be heard by their keen ears. Death may also follow." Another mermaid spoke solemnly in a blunt human language.
answer directly.
Bai Ya still couldn't figure it out.
"Because of this story? I admit that this love-hate entanglement is indeed exciting enough. But you also said that it is difficult to tell whether this story is true or false, and it is impossible to tell whether it is right or wrong, so that you will not become enemies of each other.
A hundred years."
"It should be like this. At that time, our clan had already reconciled with them, and they also clearly admitted that this pearl should belong to our clan. But..."
The orange-tailed shark told Bai Ya that the sharks and the dragon tribe had met here to discuss the ownership of this treasure. The envoy sent was said to be a young man, and maybe he was the little dragon from the beginning. Dancing in Chinese
This is unknown. The only credible rumors are that the two parties sacrificed the bloody dragon ball and sat in a circle. The wizard who communicated yin and yang among the sharks performed spells and prayed to the girl's soul from a distance, asking her to resolve it.
Resentment, forgive the two clansmen. If she is willing to let go, please show her spirit and give a signal to the living.
As soon as this set of communication ended, the dragon ball faded away from the blood-stained red and turned into pure white. The matter went smoothly beyond both parties' expectations. After thinking about it, they decided that it was the girl who had made the decision for herself to end this absurd tragedy.
So they each took a step back. The Dragon Clan recognized that the pearl belonged to the Shark clan, and the Shark clan allowed them to build a crystal palace and place the orb in memory of the past and as a reminder to future generations.
The pearl is not always white, but changes with the cycle of day and night. At night, the pearl will turn into the corresponding pitch black. This is not surprising. The female mermaid explained to Bai Ya that this orb can make the mermaid
Temporarily transformed into human form.
If a mermaid wants to go to land, he only needs to go to the palace where the pearl is placed and pray sincerely. If he makes a wish during the day and becomes a human being, he will return to his original form at night, and vice versa. In any case, they can maintain their human body for a long time.
No more than six hours. If you want to live forever
To become a human, perhaps the only way to become a human being is to cut the tail of a fish with a shuttle like the girl in the legend, and then come back to pray for the pearl to grant magic power. But this method... is too bloody, and no one has ever dared to try it. Besides, there is nothing worth doing.
This is a desperate move and risks death.
To take a step back: Even if this legend is true, once the tail is sawed off and turned into a human... humans will no longer have the chance to return to the pearl. Therefore, there is no confirmation of this rumor so far.
This description of the power of transformation was really familiar, and Bai Ya couldn't help but lower his head and glance at the blue amber in his hand. Although the sharks seemed unaware, their pearls really sounded like magic weapons.
"It can't be done now!" A mermaid interjected, "It's not very possible to see the pearl. More than ten years ago, the Dragon Clan went against its promise and sent heavy troops to guard the Crystal Palace overnight, especially on guard against our clan. No matter who wants to get close, they are all one
Death, even one
They didn't let go of even a small fry. But I don't know what happened. Originally, they said it was ours, so how could they break their promise? But our clan has been slaughtered so far, and we can't form a decent team at all. Even if
I want to recruit help, but there is no way.”
Okay, back to the topic.
The sharks all looked at Bai Ya and glanced at the blue amber in his hand. Bai Ya frowned and muttered:
"To be honest, the blue amber was taken away by others before it fell into the sea. It was not considered my property at the time. At least, it did not belong to me at that time. But in the beginning, it was indeed me and my friends who stole it from Yaksha.
If you get it by mistake, we are not
I purposely robbed, just to treat illnesses and save lives. But in that case...someone of you saved my life, so I owe God a favor. If you don't repay it, it's not my style. But if you want to
I'm fighting a dragon alone, this is really..."
Bai Ya kept his head held high, and his neck was a little sore. He rubbed the back of his neck and continued to organize his words. As soon as he said this, the sharks suddenly turned around, as if they had noticed some movement. At this time, there was another one that he didn't see.
A lean shark with a tail covered in blue scales rushed over in a hurry, shouting something.
The sharks all panicked, and the orange-tailed shark in the center also had a solemn expression. She succinctly relayed the patrol's message to Bai Ya:
"There are humans... coming from across the sea. They come with bad intentions. They seem to be powerful enemies. Let's prepare for war!"
Just as she was about to turn around and lead the crowd to fight against the enemy, Bai Ya suddenly raised his voice and said to the slender messenger:
"How many people? How like?"
The man looked at him alertly, with some doubts in his eyes, so the mermaid translated to him in their language. He said a few more words, and the mermaid turned her head and said to him underwater:
"He saw three people. There seemed to be a woman among you, and two men. One of them held a strange short knife in his hand. That short knife was very special and had incredible power. Perhaps it was it that made them
Coming through the sea."
"...I understand. Don't panic, they are all my friends."
The orange-tailed shark gave him a confused look and ordered to stop her own race. She called the blue-scaled shark to explain a few words, and the latter nodded repeatedly and swam over to signal Bai Ya to follow.
"I'll go too!"
"no!"
As soon as Miss Quan said it, she was stopped by the female shark sternly. Bai Ya actually didn't understand what the last short word was, but he could guess it from Miss Quan's frustrated and unwilling expression.
"Just wait for me." He tried to comfort.
Bai Ya took a deep breath here and plunged into the water. On the way, the guide didn't say a word and kept moving forward with his head down. He didn't know whether it was because he didn't know how to speak the mainland language or because the situation was urgent.
Conversation. His speed is much faster than that of Miss Quan.
, the scenery around him quickly receded, even becoming blurry. If it weren't for this special piece of fabric, I'm afraid Bai Ya would never have been able to catch up with him. He went up all the way, and compared to the long journey when he came, he didn't go far.
, his head suddenly emerged from the water.
——It is better to say that a layer of water wall has penetrated.
There was a huge crack in front of him. Bai Ya raised his head. In the towering sea water on both sides, sea creatures of various shapes were still swimming leisurely, unaware of the strange phenomena around him. There was still a shallow layer of sea water on the bottom of the sea, which could
I saw strange pentagonal animals squirming against the bottom of the water, and some small swimming fish scurrying back and forth, as if they were puzzled by the sudden drop in water level.
At that moment, he was a little dizzy. Bai Ya felt as if he suddenly returned to the rift valley of Shiyue Mountain.
Even the people who were with him at that time are also present now.
His eyes followed the water at the bottom. There was a reef in front, covered with dirty algae and barnacles, rising from the bottom of the sea, with the top exposed outside the water layer. There was a figure standing on the top, slightly lower.
There are two more people on one side.
Lord Shuangyue, holding the Demon-Sealing Blade in his hand, first met his gaze and raised his eyebrows slightly:
"This is... a shark's fabric? It's really good..."
