"Xiaoji is fine." Xiaobai, covered in blood, replied calmly.
"???" Three question marks appeared on the leader's head. He was asking about the royal family. He really didn't know who Xiaoji was.
"Oh, Xiaojie is your royal family." Xiaobai realized that Xiaojie was the name he gave to the royal family, not his own name. It was normal for the tall seaman in front of him not to know.
"I need to see her." The leader of the mermaid said intermittently.
Xiaobai shrugged his shoulders and slowly moved out of the way, revealing the entrance of the cave.
He felt that the leader of the mermaid had no ill intentions, and even if he did, there was nothing he could do about it. All the sailors, including himself, were already exhausted, let alone dealing with these tall and well-armed mermaid warriors who could tell at a glance that they were combat experts.
It would be difficult for them to deal with the murlocs, so why not just obediently get out of the way.
The leader of the mermaid also had no doubts about him. He was very confident in his own fighting power. Even if there was an ambush from the humans in front of him in the cave, he would not be afraid.
The leader of the mermaid signaled to the other sea warriors to keep them on guard, and led the two warriors into the cave.
Xiao Bai couldn't hold on any longer, so he slowly slid against the rock wall and sat on the ground, breathing heavily. He didn't want to do anything now, he just wanted to have a good sleep, his eyes were trembling.
But now the danger has not been completely eliminated, and he cannot rest yet, so he can only hold on and stay awake.
The leader of the group, the mermaid, led the two soldiers through the corridor and into the wide cave.
"Bai?" Hearing the voice, Xiaojie asked tremblingly from the darkness.
'I am a soldier sent by the royal family to rescue. Is the royal family here?'
Xiaoji, who was nervous, suddenly heard a familiar voice. It was not a human voice, but a sound wave unique to the sea tribe.
She poked her little head out of the darkness and carefully looked in the direction of the cave entrance, just in time to see three fully armed mermaid warriors.
The leader of the group, the mermaid, also saw Xiaojie, and he walked towards Xiaojie.
"ah--"
With a piercing scream, Xiaoji shrank back into the darkness.
The leading mermaid suddenly stopped. The two mermaid warriors following him wanted to step forward, but were stopped by the leading mermaid with open arms.
He felt Xiaojie's fear, panic and distrust. It was not a good idea to forcefully step forward at this time, as he might be misunderstood by the royal family.
Xiaojie is young and has lived a happy life before. Who would have thought that a rebellion was coming at a moment's notice. Her tribe and relatives were unprepared and were massacred by the rebel fishmen. If it weren't for her father and
Her mother resisted desperately and escorted her out, but she was afraid she would not escape the same fate.
She fled all the way, was chased all the way, no one rescued her, only fear and loneliness, until she remembered Xiaobai she met on the island. With the last glimmer of hope, she came to the shore of the island and met Xiaobai.
Only then did everything happen. During the whole process, Xiaojie couldn't believe anyone. She only believed in Xiaobai. She couldn't trust even a mermaid warrior who looked completely different from a fishman.
The leader, the mermaid, and the two soldiers stood quietly, judging Xiaojie's current mood through her breathing.
When she gradually stabilized, the leader of the mermaid spoke again: 'You don't need to be afraid, we are loyal to the royal family and will not hurt you.'
As he spoke, the leader of the group, the merman, was about to step forward again.
"Yeah-" Xiaojie screamed again when she heard the footsteps.
The leader of the group, the mermaid, stopped and waited patiently.
‘Xiaobai, I want Xiaobai, go away, go away, don’t come over, go away!’ Xiaoji shouted with sound waves.
???
Three question marks popped up on the head of the leader of the mermaid. He didn't know who the little white in front of the royal family was, and he didn't know how to find him.
"Captain, Bai may be one of the humans outside." The soldier behind the leader mermaid reminded him in a low voice.
The leader of the mermaid suddenly understood, turned around and said to the two warriors: 'The royal family's mood is unstable now. She wants that novice human, let's go find him. I'm afraid only this human can get close to the royal family now.'
The leader took the two mermaids back and went outside to look for the human named Bai.
Hearing the footsteps receding, Xiaojie poked her little head out of the darkness, looked around nervously, then retreated back into the darkness, huddled up in a ball, shivering, she was very scared.
The three mermaids walked out of the cave and returned empty-handed. Xiaobai looked at the three of them in surprise and continued to rest against the rock wall.
"Who among you is called Bai?" the leader of the mermaid asked, looking at the sailor who had fallen to the ground.
The sailors were motionless, and some even snored. They were too tired. They were holding their breath while fighting the fish-men. Now they relaxed, their bodies were sore, and their eyes could not be opened at all. Several sailors had fallen asleep.
past.
Seeing that there was no movement from the sailors, the leader of the mermaid frowned and asked again.
"What are you looking for Bai for?"
A weak voice came, and the leading mermaid turned around to look, only to find that it was the human who finally made way for him and allowed him to enter the cave.
"The royal family needs him." The leader of the mermaid said without hesitation.
He doesn't care whether Xiao Bai is a good person or a bad person in the royal family's mouth. The most important thing now is to protect the royal family from leaving the cave and returning to the bottom of the sea. If this human named Xiao Bai has any evil thoughts towards the royal family, he doesn't mind killing people.
.
"Oh, it turns out it's Xiaoji who is looking for me." An ugly smile appeared on Xiaobai's face, and he struggled to stand up while holding on to the rock wall.
The strength was exhausted, and the muscles began to spasm. Xiaobai was halfway up, and the muscles in his legs spasmed. He shivered in pain, staggered, and fell to the ground again.
The leader of the mermaid looked at him indifferently, with no intention of stepping forward.
Xiaobai tried to stand up again, but unfortunately his legs were numb and he couldn't stand up at all. So he looked up at the leader, the mermaid, and said angrily: "Can't you come over and help me? I'm just going to waste it like this, leaving Xiaoji alone."
Are people waiting in the cave?"
The leading mermaid was stunned by what Xiao Bai said, and then waved his hand. The two mermaids behind him stepped forward, held Xiao Bai on the left and the right, lifted him up with force, and carried him to the cave.
The leading mermaid looked around cautiously before turning around and entering the cave again.
The mermaid warrior carried Xiao Bai through the corridor and into the cave. The sound of footsteps once again attracted Xiao Ji's eyes.
When she saw that the mermaid just now was back and fighting with someone, she quickly retracted her little head and hid in the darkness.
"My distinguished royal family, I have brought you Xiaobai." The leader of the mermaid took two steps forward and made a sound. (To be continued)
