All the worlds of me and you in quick time travel

Chapter 118

In the noisy market, a group of fishy people squatted on the side of the road shaking fans to drive away the buzzing flies.

The man in gray came over, looking mysteriously, "Hey, have you heard? The sailing team came back today. Guess what they brought back?"

The old man with a gray beard poured the seawater in the basin, and the young man beside him answered, "What else could it be? It's not coral, or the biggest night pearl."

The man in gray cut out, "What is that thing? It has long been out of place in the palace, and it was thrown elsewhere. Even the return gift given to Xiaoguo is a two-meter-high coral tree."

The young man lay on one side, covered his face with a bamboo hat and squinted, and swat a fly to death, "Then what are you talking about?"

The man in gray looked around and lowered his voice, "It's strange to say, a boat full of water! Sea water!

The old man patted the basin and knocked off the fish scales, "What's so mysterious about it? Isn't it just water? Your Majesty raises so many fish, sea water is naturally indispensable."

The man in gray tutted, "Oh, I know that too. But this sea water was transported to the imperial city! I have a cousin who is in the sailing team, and he told me that this sea water is very particular! Clean water, not shallow water, but good water from deep sea. Besides, His Majesty's fish are all raised on the island, so why use sea water? Old man, are you confused?"

The young man squinted at him, "Oh, according to what you said, Your Majesty brought back a good thing and raised it alone in the palace?"

The gray-clothed man slapped his thigh, "That's right! I heard that it's the legendary merman!"

The surrounding was quiet for a moment, the old man's little grandson looked around, and pulled the old man, "Grandpa, what is a shark?"

The young man laughed, "Merman, that is a creature with a man on top and a fish on the bottom."

The child looked at the crabs in the vat and said, "Isn't that only half eaten? It's not as much meat as crabs."

The young man was amused, and the old man slapped the child's head, "What nonsense are you talking about? You kid."

"A merman? Oh, isn't that a monster that eats people? It comes and goes without a trace, and it's very hard to find. Why do you want that thing?" At some point, the boy who came to buy fish squatted aside, plugged in.

The man in gray sighed, "You don't know, Your Majesty likes these weird things, and wanted to catch one and keep one earlier. He attacked neighboring countries before, took over a large area of ​​land, and came here to congratulate him. He can be regarded as the lord of the world. It's just a mermaid now, if your majesty wants it, why don't you hurry up and find it?"

The little servant showed a clear expression and rubbed his chin, "That's right. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has sent troops to the north, and our country has expanded. Just for, what, looking for treasures everywhere, so that people can pay tribute to some gems and treasures." Beast. I heard that this merman is full of treasures, and his tears can become pearls, and his flesh and blood can prolong his life! This time, the sea team will give a big reward."

After a pause, he continued, "Hey, tell me, His Majesty didn't play with all the things he found, but put them away in a neat and tidy manner, without any waste of government affairs. You say, this is not Your Majesty prepared it for the future queen, right?"

The man in gray was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Hahahaha, maybe? Didn't you say that the world is an engagement, and treasures are a gift? Hahaha"

"That's right, hahahaha."

The old man shook his head and dragged the child to popularize the knowledge of mermaids.Talking about the beauty and magic of the sharks, their preciousness and rarity, hard to find traces, and their ferocity and terror...

The young man pulled down his bamboo hat and looked at the sun in the sky, which was almost in the middle of the east.Pai Pai stood up, picked up the fish basket and wanted to leave.

The man in gray saw it with his head, and called out to him, "Osprey, are you leaving now?"

The young man's hair was slightly curly, and he turned around and pointed at the top of his head, "It's past time, no one will come, me, I'd better go back and catch up on sleep." Shaking the fish basket, there were still a few hard shells in it "The rest of this is just for lunch." He waved his hand, "Let's go."

The man in gray licked his lips, "This osprey sold pretty fast, probably because of his face, oh, it's good to look good, even fish sell fast. Come and see, hey, seafood shellfish The class is cheaper..."

Osprey was walking on the street, thinking about the conversation just now, thoughtfully, and showed a somewhat tangled expression for a while, "Should I tell him? This is the palace~, he can't even control himself now, ouch, it's so annoying Already!"

He turned his head and saw the Four Seasons Shop shouting for selling osmanthus cakes today, he moved his legs and walked over.Then I was annoyed with a bag of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. I clearly thought about buying books, hey~

His hut was built behind a big rock in a safe haven by the sea. It can be said that the sea is not far away.He alone lived away from the assembled family.He went to the side of the boat and threw the fish basket in, tidied things up, cleaned the shellfish in the fish basket, and then went home.

Pushing open the wooden gate, it creaked.

Put the things on the table, wash your face well, smell it, um, the smell is much less.

Only then did I carry the bag of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes into the side room, the room was very low, and there was a shallow sea below.When people see it, they will definitely think it is a place to put a boat. After all, the water has already entered, and it is estimated that it will be several meters deep.There are few people here, even if there is a wind, the water is not muddy, and you can see the stones below, it is because of this that he settled here.

However, the Osprey's boat was on the other side.

The side room was leaky, and some of the surrounding wood had splinters, not as smooth as the other side.It seems that they have just been fenced for a short time, and some stones still have soil on them, and wind and light can seep through the gaps.

After entering, you will find that there is indeed water, just like a swimming pool.

You can even see some naughty little fish swimming in, and you can even see the fins on the back clearly.Small things can be seen clearly, and big things can also be seen clearly.

That water sank a man, yes, a man.But he doesn't look like a human being, his hair is scattered in the water, the color is more ink, and when it shines in the sun, it reflects a little blue.His body was covered with a thin cloth like hoarfrost, which looked as light as a feather.The eyes are closed, the eyelashes are thick and dense, there is a faint pattern between the forehead, and the corners of the jaw under the ears are also one or two, which is not obvious. The arms and lower back are the same, extending to the back of the hands, mottled and circling, very beautiful.

The Osprey squatted on the stone, looking at the person at the bottom, and his eyes inadvertently fell on his slender ankle. It has been more than two months, and until now, he has only woken up once. It is simply like a fake.

More than two months ago, there was a sudden storm.Just right, he didn't know what was going on, and he chased a big shark to the middle of the sea without knowing it, surrounded by sea, not even an island.

How can his boat stand the scrape?It was overturned by a wave, and not only that, but the old things were sacrificed so honorably and shattered into planks.

He clung to the driftwood tightly, not wanting to send Xiaominger out.

It was still raining continuously in the sky, and the waves were more violent than the waves.His hands and feet were numb after being soaked, and he was about to lose strength.Drowsy, he felt that he had choked on a few sips of water, and then something was stuffed into his mouth, with a faint smell of blood and sweetness, he seemed to be able to breathe suddenly, but the pressure of the ocean still made him unable to open his eyes. I could only vaguely see something blue in the ice drifting past. He was slowly rising, drifting with the sea.

When I woke up again, I was lying on the beach, with sand in my face and nose, and the sun was dazzling.He got up, sat on the ground, and looked around. He was familiar with it. Coincidentally, it was one of the shallow harbors near his home. If he hadn't noticed it when he was inspecting the terrain, his eyes might have been darkened.

Opening his mouth, it made him uncomfortable, and a scale was pulled out, even cutting his tongue.It is a scale that has never been seen before, with a dark blue edge, and behind it is sky blue, ice blue, overall blue, but different, shining in the sun, it is a treasure.

Osprey remembered those fragments of memories, and was a little surprised. Could it be that he met the legendary merman, and the merman not only didn't eat him, but even saved him?

Shaking my head and laughing at myself for being so imaginative.

Holding the scales of the fish, I stood up and walked home with one foot deep and one foot shallow.It was behind boulders in the shallow bay of his cottage.

When I got closer, I was shocked, such a big fish tail, this is a big fish!

However, it is different, why do fish still wear clothes?Suppressing the doubts in his heart and looking up, Osprey will remember this scene all his life.

In the transparent shallow sea, the merman's eyes were closed, his dark blue hair was scattered around his neck, and his body was full of wounds, especially on his chest. The flesh and blood were turned out, and there was a little silver light in the sun. It was scary at first. The scene, however, is shocking because of the color and beauty.The sharp fingertips are the same color as the hair, and some places have been cut.The cloth as white as frost is wrapped around his waist, swinging in the water.

He looked seriously injured, but he didn't have a vulnerable expression.

Moving his eyes down, he saw that one of the neatly arranged fish scales was very conspicuous, and suddenly one piece was missing in the dark blue center, which drove the obsessive-compulsive disorder crazy.Osprey clenched his hands, and carefully compared the scales to the body of the merman in the water. They fit perfectly, and they belonged to him.The first reaction in Osprey's mind was not that he picked up a merman who could make him rich, but that he was actually saved by a merman, and how painful it was to pull out his scales...

He brought the merman back home and kept him in a big bucket, but the bucket wasn't big enough to completely submerge the merman.

Osprey looked at the shallow sea next to the house, thinking about it.He kept the merman in captivity. He tried the merman's breath, and he was still alive, but he didn't die.

He strung up the scales with silk threads, and because they were too hard to make holes, he was reluctant, so he wrapped them in resin and hung them carefully around his neck.

The merman slept for a long time, and if it wasn't for the reminders from the healed wounds, people would think that he was dead.

Merman only woke up once, and that was a month after Osprey brought him back.Osprey was squatting by the water to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, a small piece fell and slowly hit the shark's forehead.Suddenly, as if disturbed, the merman suddenly opened his eyes, frightening the osprey half to death, paralyzed on the rock, not daring to move, he heard that the merman can eat people.
