The palm-sized blue and white paper crane almost seemed to disappear in the sunlight when it flew up into the blue sky. Until it whirled halfway down from the sky, its "buzzing" wings
The vibrating sound reached Xiaoyi's ears.
"The paper crane is back!" She shouted excitedly, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, the paper crane spread its wings and landed on her wrist like a living creature.
Hai Tianqing and others suddenly became energetic, stopped, and gathered around one after another. Hu Changzai couldn't help but sighed, with a look full of fear: "I finally came back. I thought it was broken outside.
It’s been almost two months, and this has been making me worried..."
Xiao Yi rolled her eyes at him, then leaned closer to Hai Tianqing, raised her head and pouted at him like a baby: "Brother Hai, I don't know where your friend has gone. This kind of paper crane
It has always been very fast, all because of the long distance..."
"Okay, okay, let it go!" The rabbit patted its paws on the ground impatiently.
After two or three months, Lin Sanjiu's cool and steady voice once again reached the ears of his friends.
Zhihe's recording time was not long, only two minutes in total, but no one expected that Lin Sanjiu's message would not even take half of the time -
The messages were all posted very quickly. Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Hu Changzai was the first to say with some doubts: "She is in a far away place and can't get out? Could it be that she is being imprisoned?"
After listening to the recording, if it weren't for the fur covering it, Rabbit would probably have his veins twitching: "What kind of imprisonment! Can we still send messages in prison? She didn't even want to tell us where she was. She clearly didn't want us to go! She actually still
Tell us to find a way to apply for a visa on our own and leave her alone - bah, who cares about her? It's so selfish, I must go to a comfortable new world without her!"
"Okay, please stop saying a few words." Hai Tianqing frowned, pretending not to see the burning gaze Xiaoyi cast. "The place where Xiaojiu is is probably not very safe, or as she said, it's not safe to enter."
She couldn’t get out if she had to go, so she didn’t let us know where she was..."
"Yes," Hu Changzai sighed. "Rabbit, if we knew where she was, there would be no reason not to go. If we were really trapped there, none of us would have a visa.
If we go out, I don't know if we can meet again in this life. Please stop making trouble, we still have to think about what to do next."
"What else can we do?" Xiaoyi suddenly interrupted. It was obvious that she was the only one among the four who was in a good mood at the moment. She smiled and reached out to hug Hai Tianqing's arm: "Your friends also said it themselves, let's
Let's go and apply for a visa! Only by applying for a visa will she be able to find you in the future..."
Hai Tianqing quickly withdrew his arm and said with a long face: "If you try anything else, don't come with us. The question is, where is the visa officer?"
What's more, even if the visa officer is found, Hu Changzai and Rabbit cannot show up - who knows if the puppet master has announced their names and appearances. If someone reports a letter to the puppet master, then
But that's troublesome.
Xiaoyi chuckled and suddenly said to Hu Changzai and Rabbit: "You two go into my shell first."
Although the two are not connected, the beautiful white room usually moves forward inch by inch with Xiaoyi's footsteps - as soon as she stopped, the house immediately stopped not far behind her.
.
"Ah? What's wrong?" Although he was puzzled, Hu Changzai still cooperated, picked up the rabbit and entered the house.
Seeing the door closed, Xiaoyi smiled at Hai Tianqing and whispered, "Brother Hai will reward me later." Before the latter could ask, she suddenly raised her arms and shouted into the distance: "Ah!
Mr. Danger! Miss Meihuan!”
The man and rabbit hiding behind the door in the house almost choked.
Hai Tianqing's eyes widened in surprise - because the distance was still the same dusty yellow sand and ruins, and he didn't see anyone anywhere.
However, after Xiaoyi shouted several times, two figures actually came out from behind the deserted half-building.
"Who called me?"
A young, fat man who looked very unhappy poked his head out from behind the building and responded, looking a little wary.
Without asking at all, Hai Tianqing could tell with just one glance that he was not a native of this world. A special symbol was drawn with thick black ink on Ah Xianxian's forehead. It was very abstract and looked a bit like spreading wings.
A bird about to fly. On one of his ears, there were a dozen densely packed golden rings, but the other ear was empty, with nothing on it.
He was born with an unhappy face, so when A's dangerous eyes fell on Xiaoyi, even though he recognized that this was an acquaintance, his expression was still gloomy: "It's you, no wonder you found me at a glance
Coming."
Probably knowing that Xiaoyi walked slowly, he couldn't wait impatiently and walked towards the two of them while talking.
Xiaoyi glanced behind him and was stunned: "...is this? Where is Miss Meihuan?"
"You were just talking nonsense, and you almost got me involved. Who knows where I am now." A Xianxian's expression remained unchanged, as if he was talking about someone he didn't know, and he didn't seem to have any intention of introducing the tall man behind him.
The woman's name. "Let me tell you, besides you, how many people know this 'sleeping bag' you gave me? If someone can find it every time I need to rest, I will die from exhaustion."
"There is no one else, no one." Xiaoyi smiled quickly, "Mr. Ah, I want you to issue four visas for me."
Ah Xian took a breath with a hissing sound and glanced at the two of them.
...While Hai Tianqing and his party were nervously waiting for the visa officer's response, Lin Sanjiu was under the sea of 10,000 meters. Just when he thought of the same thing, he was startled by a miserable howl.
The scream, which almost sounded like someone was scared out of his wits, came from Shen Lianqi hanging on the wall: "Ah, ah! Is there someone, is there someone! Help! Help, help me..."
Lin Sanjiu threw down a half-scaled fish in his hand, called out [Ability Polishing Agent], turned around and shined the silver light on his face, and asked angrily: "What are you shouting for?
Are you having nightmares?"
Being hit by the light, Shen Lianqi narrowed his eyes involuntarily. After a few seconds, he seemed to have just recognized Lin Sanjiu: "Miss Lin?! You, why are you... This, where am I..."
He looked down at his body, which was tightly tied up in circles, and screamed: "Why did you tie me up?"
Lin Sanjiu was not surprised at all by Shen Lianqi's reaction.
Since she sent away the paper crane, she naturally did not let Shen Lianqi get even a little bit of the mermaid culture liquid in the past two months. In the first few weeks, it was just a matter of return, but in the past few days, he began to behave like a mermaid.
The symptoms are vague - like something occupying his brain has lost its stamina due to lack of nourishment. Occasionally Shen Lianqi will forget that he was once a mermaid.
But it was the first time that I woke up from a big dream like today.
"Look at your feet." Lin Sanjiu sat back and continued to scrape the fish scales.
The fish scales on Shen Lianqi's legs had faded a lot at this time, and the gills on his face had gradually closed; but his two feet still retained the shape of fish tails, so as soon as his eyes fell on them, he immediately said "Ah" again.
A scream: "My feet, my...how did it become like this, eh...?"
His tone softened.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him: "Have you remembered?"
Shen Lianqi's face was blue and white, and even his lips were trembling. He was completely different from the optimistic and cheerful look he had some time ago: "I, I, I... why did I become a mermaid?"
It seemed that the effectiveness of the mermaid cultivation solution was about to disappear. After a while, he would be able to remember the whole story. As soon as Lin Sanjiu untied Shen Lianqi from the wall, he slipped to the ground.
It seems that the binding time was too long, and my hands and feet were so numb that I lost all feeling——
"How do you feel now?" she asked a little curiously.
Shen Lianqi looked confused, as if he was confused by the memory flashing in his mind and didn't know what to say. After a long time, he muttered in response: "It feels like... watching a movie. I still remember everything... but it's like...
It’s like watching a documentary… Hey, wait?”
His face suddenly turned pale, and he looked like he was about to vomit: "What the hell are those three soaked things? Fallen species? Corpses? Ah, I actually grabbed the arm of the female corpse with this hand?
"
This is the reaction of a normal person - Lin Sanjiu was satisfied and suddenly had bad intentions: "Not only did I grab her arm, you also liked her very much at the time. I'm sorry, I broke you two up.
"
Shen Lianqi looked like he was about to cry - it felt like waking up from a nap and discovering that he had eaten a piece of shit while sleepwalking. It was so disgusting that one simply didn't know what to do.
After a long time, he gradually recovered, wiped his face vigorously, and said solemnly to Lin Sanjiu: "Miss Lin, you saved my life, and I really can't repay you for this kindness.
I won’t forget it, don’t worry, as long as you say a word in the future, I will do it without hesitation..."
"Okay, okay, I didn't spend much effort." Lin Sanjiu felt a little embarrassed by him and quickly changed the subject: "Are you hungry? I just went down to catch a fish, let's eat together.
.”
Shen Lianqi said "Hey", and as soon as his eyes fell on the fish, his face turned pale again: "Let's just... just eat this?"
"What's wrong?"
"This is too... too, too ugly..."
To say it's ugly is simply a compliment to this fish. In fact, if Lin Sanjiu hadn't said it, no one would have thought that this was actually a fish——
"Stop being squeamish," Lin Sanjiu shook the fish in his hand, and the dozen or so long legs under its belly suddenly swayed wildly. "You have been eating this for the past two or three months."
Just when gastric juice rushed up to Shen Lianqi's throat, he suddenly realized something and was stunned. Even his nausea became much lighter. "Miss Lin, how long have we been at the bottom of the sea?
?”
"It's... dark. It's hard to say exactly how long it took. But at least it took three months."
Three months, she had calculated it since she saw the paper crane.
Shen Lianqi raised his head and seemed to be counting the days. After a long time, he suddenly said "Ah" loudly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Sanjiu felt that since he turned back into a human, he was always surprised. From a certain point of view, he was not as lovable as when he was a mermaid.
"It's almost the day..." Shen Lianqi frowned and looked at her, his face a little pale. "The day I will teleport is probably tomorrow night - Miss Lin, are you almost there too?"
It took a while for Lin Sanjiu to realize what he was talking about.
