The seabed is similar to the land. There are also mountains, valleys, and plains. The places where the inhabitants of the seabed choose to settle are no longer restricted by water resources. They can settle wherever there is sufficient food.
Behind a hill, in a place where the water is relatively calm, there is a strange farm. Among the man-made fences, huge nets are connected to form a circle. But inside, it is a mess, with only a few remaining
Debris from kelp and the corpses of the Hai people lay scattered in this place.
The Demon King and Eva who were passing by looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
"Stop, Lan Lan."
Eva said something to the strange fish, and it slowly stopped, and the two of them swam to the farm.
These dead people from the Hai Tribe were all wearing shabby clothes. They looked less like soldiers and more like farmers here.
"It's too much."
Eva covered her mouth, unable to believe her eyes.
The Demon King looked around with an expressionless face. He had seen this kind of scene too many times and had no feeling in his heart. Suddenly, he discovered some suspicious-looking dwellings, some man-made square buildings made of stones, and the gates had disappeared.
There is no trace, only the empty doorframe remains.
"There are still people alive inside."
The devil said calmly. After hearing this, Eva immediately looked towards the house and swam over quickly.
There was no way to burn building materials, so people on the bottom of the sea used stones to build their houses.
Eva poked her head into the dark room.
"Is anyone there?"
There was no sound in the house, and it was pitch dark. Eva took courage and swam in, followed closely by the devil. Suddenly, there was a sudden brush on the ground, and Eva opened the window, and suddenly it became brighter inside.
It was a mess, all the empty cans had been packed away, the cabinets were in a mess, and there were some hair, rags of clothes and unknown things floating in the sea, which made people feel disgusting.
"Is there anyone? Don't worry, I'm not a bad person."
Eva asked again.
"No bad person would say that he is a bad person."
The Demon King on the side said as he swam to an inconspicuous corner, where a strange statue was placed. The Demon King grabbed the statue's body with one hand and suddenly tore it in half with a bang.
No, this is originally a container, but the lower body is actually a hollow the size of a rice vat.
"Ah! Ah!!"
Suddenly, a frightened kid appeared in the statue. His face was very ugly, as pale as a piece of white paper. He covered his ears, let out a piercing scream, and huddled in this small space.
It was shaking exaggeratedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, you're safe."
Eva comforted him, but it was of no use.
"Shut up."
The devil just said a simple sentence, and the child immediately stopped shouting, and he found that he could not make a sound at all.
"What did you do to him?"
Eva was a little shocked and looked back at the Devil. The Devil had no expression at all. He moved forward and held the child's head. Suddenly the child's expression softened a lot.
"This is a sign of excessive fright. If you stimulate him again, he may harm himself or attack you."
After the devil finished speaking, he withdrew his hand. The child was panting just now, but then slowly calmed down and fell asleep.
"There's only so much I can do, let's go."
"Wait! I want to save him."
Eva said suddenly.
"Just you? How to save me?"
asked the devil.
Eva frowned.
"I will take him back to the palace and at least arrange a job for him and make him an apprentice."
"Oh, innocent thoughts, do you know what's going on here?"
Hearing this, Eva gritted her teeth.
"I know, it was my mother who did it."
"No, you know one thing. What I want to tell you is that there is more than one child like this."
As the Demon King said this, he grabbed her outside and swam to a high place. He immediately looked around and saw densely packed huts scattered across the plain.
"Now you understand, this is not as simple as you said. You can save one or two, but thousands."
Hearing this, Eva opened her mouth wide with a painful expression. She imagined tens of thousands of children looking frightened, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart.
"Why would a mother do such a thing?"
"This is a warning to the monkeys. With the power of the trident, she should be able to control these people, but she didn't do so. Either the power of the trident is not as powerful as we thought, or it can only control people within a certain range. So.
Want to use other methods to control other people's thoughts, such as showing one's own force."
This is also a common method, and it should be unacceptable to this innocent princess. However, the Demon King does not care about her feelings. Maybe one day, she will do such a thing when she ascends the throne.
Eva still wanted to take the child away, but the devil refused to allow it. He didn't want to bring another burden this time, so he kindly helped.
"There must be survivors here, and there may be relatives of this kid. Let's go and find out."
The devil came up with this idea. Of course, before he spoke, he had already found hundreds of people hiding in a cave under the sea.
Under his deliberate guidance, Eva found the cave entrance.
Sure enough, hundreds of people were crowded into the entrance of a small cave, which may have been used to store food. Now hundreds of people were squeezed in. The water inside was very turbid, and no one dared to come out.
"Is anyone in there?"
Eva did not choose to go in, but shouted at the entrance of the cave.
"Shh! Don't make a sound."
Suddenly a voice came out.
"I hear your voice, don't worry, I'm not your enemy."
Eva said again.
"It's over! We've been discovered!"
"What are you afraid of! Fight with them!"
Immediately, several people with sickles rushed out. They saw a teenage girl from the sea tribe holding a little boy, and they immediately relaxed their vigilance.
"Which family are you from? How come I haven't seen you before?"
The leader asked.
Eva shook her head and said, "I'm not from here. I just passed by here and found a little boy hiding in the house. I wonder if anyone knows him."
She handed the little boy over, and the other party looked at it and started discussing.
"Isn't that a child from the Qiaoxi family?"
"Ah! Yes, did any of them escape?"
"I haven't seen it. A family of seven..."
They discussed it and finally found someone who was somewhat related to the boy.
The leader was a fishman with a slender beard who was probably in his fifties. He bowed to Eva and said, "Thank you, little girl. This place is very dangerous. The army in the old capital kills without blinking an eye. You'd better hurry up."
Run away, or hide here with us."
The other party said.
Eva shook her head, said sorry at last, and left the place without looking back.
