The fate of the mermaids is inseparable from being caught. The rich have never been in contact with mermaids, and know little about mermaids.Contrary to their imagination, the lethality of the mermaid is not that amazing, a fishbone is simply vulnerable compared to the steel in their hands.

The weapons of the mermaids can hardly cause harm to humans, and they can easily defeat the attacks of the mermaids.Poisonous fish bones, highly poisonous jellyfish stings, conch mixed with squid ink...all were smashed to pieces in the end.

"Catch it! Catch it!"

"Me too!"

When all means of attack are ineffective, the mermaids cannot escape the fate of being caught.The fishing net mixed with copper wire makes it even more difficult for mermaids to break free. When they are dragged to the shore from the waves, the water in their bodies loses rapidly and become weaker. They are like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered...

Looking at the captured mermaid, Tao Yuanhang reappeared in Tao Yuanhang's eyes the unbearable and pity that night, but standing among those local rich men, he couldn't make a decision that he regretted because of impulse like last time.

After sunbathing on the beach for a long time, Wei Junchen's lips were already dry and the scales on the fish tail had begun to burst.His consciousness was a little fuzzy, before he fainted, he raised his head and looked at him beggingly, "I beg you...let it go, let them go..."

Tao Yuanhang bent down and put his hands on Wei Junchen's chapped cheeks, "I'm sorry, this time, it's not possible."

…………

When he woke up again, he was in a dungeon specially built by rich men for mermaids.

During Tao Yuanhang's disappearance during this period, apart from communicating with the rich men on how to catch mermaids, most of the rest of the time was spent building this dungeon with them not far from the sea, just to have a place to imprison the mermaids before sending them to the capital. them.

This dungeon is a four-meter-deep hole dug on the beach, with a length and width of 20 meters. It is surrounded by a circle of iron pillars to isolate it from the soil of the beach. A total of twelve people including Wei Junchen were imprisoned. mermaid.In order to prevent the mermaids from escaping, their hands were shackled, and the five-foot-deep sea water only allowed them to maintain a little physical strength.

When Wei Junchen woke up, it was already late at night, and he had been exposed to the sun for a long time during the day. Only when Jue and many mermaids continuously poured sea water on his body did his chapped skin gradually recover.

After fighting during the day, the mermaids were all covered in cuts and bruises, with more or less scars on their faces.

"I... where are we?" Wei Junchen's voice trembled when he hadn't eaten for a day.

"In the human dungeon, we were imprisoned here before we were sent away by them." Jue gently smoothed the broken hair on Wei Junchen's forehead, "Don't be afraid, we will find a way to escape."

escape?The reason why these mermaids were caught here was all because of my own fault. If I hadn't trusted Tao Yuanhang too much, I wouldn't have been caught by those rich men as bait, and they wouldn't have been imprisoned here.

Thinking of this, Wei Junchen felt a little guilty. With difficulty, he stood up while supporting the iron pillar, and bowed deeply to the mermaids, "I'm sorry, you were arrested because of me."

After talking about the ins and outs of the matter, the mermaids were not angry, but expressed understanding to Wei Junchen.Except for Jue, he still believes that human nature is evil. After knowing that Wei Junchen saved Tao Yuanhang, he raised his palm and slapped him heavily.

After living in the ocean for many years, Jue's palm had a thick layer of calluses, and he only felt burning pain when he hit his face. Wei Junchen couldn't bear his palm, and fell into the water in embarrassment.

"What did I say? Human beings are liars, and they will do anything to achieve their goals! It's fine if you saved him, but you still have something to do with him? Are you stupid?"

In the middle of the night, the dungeon amplified the echoes, and Jue's voice was unusually loud, awakening the sleeping birds in the distant forest.

[The mermaid was caught because of the host!Deduct 20 character points, the current character value: 50 points. 】

The future of the mermaids is already in crisis, and now more than half of the mermaids have been caught. Without Jue's leadership, how can the mermaids in the Great Barrier Reef survive in the dangerous deep sea? The shackles were about to hit Wei Junchen.

"Stop!" A voice above the dungeon attracted the eyes of all the mermaids, looking at the person who caused them all to be arrested, each of them hated the root of their teeth, wishing to tear him to pieces in minutes.

Tao Yuanhang was wearing the same bright clothes as in the daytime, holding a dark brown wooden barrel with a long spoon in his hand.Facing the mermaids in the dungeon, he lost his hypocritical face during the day. He faced these mermaids shamelessly, avoiding their condemnation with his flickering eyes.

"It's none of his business, I tricked you here."

"Bah!" Jue raised his head and spat at Tao Yuanhang, only to see that wetness drew an arc in the air, and finally stuck to the sandy wall. "You ungrateful thing! Thanks to the fact that I let you go last time, if I knew you were such a person, I shouldn't have let you go."

Being scolded by Jue like this, Tao Yuanhang's head drooped even lower.He slowly put down the wooden barrel in his hand, "Wei Junchen once said that mermaids eat seaweed, so I fished some things from the sea just now and gave them to you. I haven't eaten for a day, so let's replenish my energy."

While talking, Tao Yuanhang dumped the contents of the barrel into the dungeon.

These are all freshly fished out of the sea, and the light green seaweed smells like the sea, making the stagnant water in the dungeon more alive.

The mermaids have been hungry all day, and they chose the former.No one went to eat the meal Tao Yuanhang sent, the proud mermaid would rather choose to starve to death.

Wei Junchen was still unwilling to accept Tao Yuanhang's betrayal of himself and the mermaid. He supported the wall and looked up at Tao Yuanhang under the moonlight, "Why? Is it just to save the people in the village?"

Tao Yuanhang was silent, paused and said, "They are everything in my life, I can't just give them up like this. I'm sorry."

"But they threw you into the sea and left you to fend for yourself? Have you ever thought about being kind to them? Have they been kind to you?"

Values ​​are different, no matter how much Wei Junchen said, it would be futile.Tao Yuanhang is not an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, but a domestic dog that has been fed too well by those villagers. He is too loyal to them, no matter what they do to him, they will not give up on them.

"Those villagers can survive, but after we send them to the capital, we will only die, you know?"

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" Tao Yuanhang cried.

This was the first time Wei Junchen saw Tao Yuanhang cry. This 1.8-meter tall man would shed tears like a child.Wei Junchen knew that Tao Yuanhang would not be able to save himself again, this time he could only rely on himself!

These rich men cannot imprison the mermaid for too long, the sea water in the dungeon does not circulate, so the mermaid must be sent to the capital as soon as possible.

In the middle of the night, when the mermaids were already asleep, Wei Junchen secretly rubbed the ring on his finger in the corner of the dungeon.After a few seconds, Dabai jumped out of the ring in one swift motion.

[May I ask what the host has ordered? 】Dabai lowered his voice and said.

[Is there any way to escape?I need some props. 】

How could these things be difficult to understand?It quickly opened the mall, flipping the pages back and forth looking for suitable props, and after a while, it selected an item that looked like a hoe.

[This hoe can quickly dig the ground. It only takes five seconds to dig a hole with a diameter of one meter in this dungeon. It is currently only 50 meters away from the seaside. It only takes half a stick of incense to dig to the seaside. . 】

Without even thinking about it, Wei Junchen took the hoe from Dabai, 【I'll buy it! 】

"bling~"

[Deduct 10 gold coins!Current balance: 25 gold coins! 】

This hoe is only more than 30 centimeters, and it is very light and flexible in the hand.There is a button on the handle, Wei Junchen pressed it lightly, and only heard the sound of "buzzing!", the hoe started to vibrate in a dazed way, and when it got close to the wall, it was like an earthworm found the soil, and kept digging deeper drill.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

A series of noises woke the mermaid up from her dream, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that Wei Junchen was half-body in the wall, and was still wriggling deeper.

"Hush! Be quiet, follow me, we will be able to go out in a while!" Wei Junchen turned around and said to them.

Getting closer to the sea, Wei Junchen could already hear the sound of the waves and feel the sand getting wetter.

"Huh-huh!" When the sea water poured into the cave, all the mermaids were very excited and couldn't wait to return to the embrace of the sea from the cave.

In the sea, they turned around several times to stretch their muscles and bones, spit out bubbles of different sizes, and moisten the dry fish gills with sea water.

Calculating the time, the sun will rise in half an hour.Fortunately, there was no danger this time, and the mermaids swam excitedly towards the Great Barrier Reef.Wei Junchen looked at the hoe in his hand, and threw it vigorously into the distance.

"Let's go? What are you staring at?" Jue reminded Wei Junchen, pulling Wei Junchen's arm.

"You guys go, I can't go, if those rich men don't catch a mermaid, Tao Yuanhang will definitely be dealt with by them, I will stay and save him."

There were three black lines on Jue's head, "Are you stupid?"

No!This is definitely not stupid, Wei Junchen shook his head, compared to fighting zombies in the doomsday, saving the raiders is not difficult at all, okay? !
