"Hey, have you seen enough?" A cold voice suddenly came over.
I came to my senses and turned around.
Xiao Yuchen frowned and looked at me, his round eyes showing obvious displeasure, "Why are you staring at Yun Ling like this?"
I looked at him and blinked, "Yuchen, aren't you jealous?"
Xiao Yuchen's expression froze, "Your mouth should be sewn shut!"
I licked my lower lip, smiled, and asked pointedly, "Are you willing to do it?"
Xiao Yuchen frowned, not understanding my hint for a moment.
After a while, he figured out what I meant by being reluctant. His cheeks turned red, he looked away from me, and said angrily, "There must be something wrong with my eyes when I grow up!"
I want to laugh a little, isn't he scolding himself?
After a while, when Xiao Yuchen calmed down, he suddenly asked me, "Lin Xi, is Yun Ling good to Sister Ling?"
I was stunned for a moment and said nothing.
Without waiting for my answer, he turned back and looked at me, "Why didn't you say anything? Did Yun Ling change after we got married and treat Sister Ling no longer well?"
I shook my head, "He is very good to Yu Ling.
"
It's just that they didn't get married, they didn't have this fate.
Xiao Yuchen looked at me straight for a while and said nothing.
Then, he raised his hand and took off the mask from my face.
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end no word came out.
We set off in the morning, and at noon, Xiao Yuchen took me to a high mountain.
As he led me down the mountain, he told me that there was a small fishing village at the foot of the mountain. He knew that there was a mermaid who dressed up as a human and lived in the small fishing village.
The sharks are full of treasures. Their tears can be turned into beads, fish paste can be made into lamp oil, and a pair of skillful hands can spin the lightest cicada yarn in the world. The shark beads they cultivate have the effects of purification and rebirth, which are great for those who practice Taoism.
Treasure.
Therefore, both humans and cultivating monsters are eyeing them.
The Sharks are simple and kind-hearted by nature. They never hurt anyone. Their only way to resist is to hide them so that people can't find them.
That's why Xiao Yuchen brought me here to find the shark.
By nature of animals, red croakers and sharks are neighbors.
In other words, as long as we find the place where the sharks live, we can help me find the red turtle.
When we came to the foot of the mountain, we saw a small fishing village with dozens of families.
The houses are all made of wood and have small courtyards surrounded by fences. Fish, shrimps and fishing nets are drying in the yards of every household.
Before entering the village, you can smell a fishy smell from a distance.
At this time, someone in the small fishing village seemed to be having a happy event. Two red lanterns were hung on the wooden door frame, but strangely, the red lanterns actually had the words "Double Happiness" written in white.
Under the red lantern is a couplet. The couplet is made of red paper, but the words on it are white.
Looking at the courtyard, there are red and white silks hanging in the air. Under the silks, there is a sedan chair in the center of the small courtyard.
The bright red flower bridge is carried by eight people, and the four corners of the sedan's top are carved with dragons spitting beads.
The golden dragon spit out a luminous pearl the size of a fist. Even though it was daytime, the luminous pearl also emitted a light like moonlight. One glance revealed that these four beads were all treasures.
The silk and satin parts of the sedan chair are all embroidered with gold and silver threads to create various auspicious patterns.
The entire sedan was extremely luxurious and was incompatible with this dilapidated small fishing village.
In front of the door of this house, there was a group of middle-aged women in simple clothes. One of the women was crying, and the others were trying to persuade her.
As soon as Xiao Yuchen and I entered the village, a middle-aged woman standing in the crowd suddenly turned her head to look at us as if she felt something.
After seeing clearly that it was Xiao Yuchen, the middle-aged woman's face lit up and she hurried over.
Xiao Yuchen said that there was a shark he knew in this fishing village.
Now I see a middle-aged woman running towards us.
I asked Yuchen in a low voice, "Is she that shark?"
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "Her name is Zhu'er. She fell in love with a human and stayed here.
"
I looked at Pearl.
She disguised herself very well. Mermaids have long lifespans and their aging rate is completely different from humans. But in order to get closer to humans, Pearl controlled the changes in her appearance.
She looks like an ordinary fisherman. She has been exposed to the wind and sun at the beach all year round. Her skin is dark and she looks about forty.
If she hadn't come to us on her own initiative, I would never have recognized her as a shark.
"Benefactor.
"As she came closer, Zhu'er saluted Xiao Yuchen, "My benefactor came here to see me, right?"
Xiao Yuchen got straight to the point and said directly, "I have something to ask the Scarlet Clan for help. Zhu'er, do you have a way to help me contact the Scarlet Clan?"
"Red Rooster is born with low magical power, has a clever mouth, and lives by deceiving.
My benefactor, what are you doing with them?"
When Zhu'er said that the Chiqu people were naturally deceitful, Xiao Yuchen turned his attention to me.
He looked at me, but said to Pearl, "Help her find similar people!"
I,"……"
Is this a bit too much for him? I didn’t even say a few words to deceive him!
Zhu'er looked at me in surprise, "My dear friend, don't be joking, she is not from the Red Clan.
"
"Her mouth is just like that of the Crimson Clan.
After finding Chiju, they can compete with each other, and maybe Chiju will become her disciple.
"Xiao Yuchen didn't save any face for me.
Zhu'er was stunned for a moment, then smiled at me and said, "Girl, you have a really good relationship with your benefactor.
"
I blinked.
How did she know that we have a good relationship?
As if she understood what I was thinking, Pearl smiled and said, "Despite my young age, my benefactor is calm, he always has a cold face and rarely speaks.
But today, he made a joke with the girl.
In my benefactor's heart, the girl must be different.
"
Yeah?
I looked at Xiao Yuchen.
Sensing my gaze, Xiao Yuchen's eyes looked slightly embarrassed. He coughed lightly and was about to say something.
But I suddenly approached him, threw myself into his arms, put my arms around Xiao Yuchen's waist, turned to Zhuer and smiled, "Of course he and I are different. I am his wife. When he grows up, I will
Marry me.
"
As soon as I finished speaking, the sound of accelerating heartbeat sounded in my ears. It was Xiao Yuchen's heartbeat, which was strong and powerful.
I raised my head and looked at Xiao Yuchen.
He didn't push me away, he just looked down at me and cursed lightly, "You're so thick-skinned.
"
"We haven't seen each other for a few years. My benefactor now has a wife. Pearl is here to congratulate her benefactor.
"Zhu'er said with a smile.
Xiao Yuchen didn't refute her, he pushed me out of his arms.
I know he is thin-skinned, and if he continues to tease me, he might lose his temper.
So I got out of his arms, intending to distance myself from him and stand aside honestly.
But before I could step aside, a pair of big hands stretched out and took my hand.
I was startled and looked at him.
Xiao Yuchen's expression remained unchanged, but his ears were dyed red.
He held my hand and asked Zhuer if there was any way to contact Chiqu?
Zhu'er nodded, "The Red Rooster is adjacent to our clan. I will go back to the clan and ask around, and I should be able to find the Red Rooster.
My benefactor saved my life and my wife. Normally, I shouldn’t have any requests to help my benefactor. But now that the situation is forcing me, I still want to shamelessly ask my benefactor. I don’t know if my benefactor is willing to help again.
Me once.
"
I glanced at the big flower bridge not far away and asked Zhuer, "Is what you want related to that sedan chair?"
Pearl nodded.
I said, "You first tell me what happened, find out what happened to Xiao, and then Yuchen and I will decide whether to help.
