Chu Qinyu stared at the necklace in Jiang Feng's hand, dazed.

He once thought about what tails mean to mermaids, and the answer is that tails to mermaids probably...

means everything.

Mermaids have the ability to transform their tails into legs. This is nothing new? According to data from a long time ago, mermaids can transform their forms, and they are no different from humans after transformation.

According to his research, although the intelligence of the entire race of mermaids is far behind that of humans, there are still many individuals who have the ability to pretend to be humans and live in human society.However, in the real world, it is rare for mermaids to use human form to mix with humans.

Some people have specifically studied why the mermaids don't try to join the human race. Is it because they don't know how advanced the human technology is?

The answer is no, mermaids know that humans are powerful beings, but they also have something they value, that is their tails.In the world of mermaids, the legs are ugly, if they can, they will never change the appearance of the legs in their life.

Tails are the pride of merfolk, and they deserve it.The tail of a mermaid can be regarded as the most beautiful existence in the ocean, and no mermaid will take the initiative to hurt its own tail, unless... when the spiritual world collapses.

"Sure enough...is it still too expensive?" Jiang Feng shook his head helplessly, then put the necklace aside, "It doesn't matter, you can always find someone who knows the goods."

As soon as the word "knowledge goods" came out, Chu Qinyu's back shivered for a while.

Human persecution of other species has always been endless.The mermaid's scales are so beautiful, naturally they cannot escape the clutches of humans.

In addition, mermaids are hard to catch, so mermaid scale products become even rarer, and rich people are even more flocking to such scales.

Because the potential market is too large, counterfeiting technology quickly followed.Many fake scales have appeared on the market, and the naked eye does not look any different from the real ones, but through the detection of instruments, the real ones can still be easily distinguished.

The cost of fake scales is not high, and it quickly became popular on a large scale, and ordinary people can afford it. It was once a very popular commodity.

But everyone knows in their hearts that this thing is a synthetic product, and the real mermaid scales are definitely not at this price.

Anyway, the real ones and the fake ones look the same, so the public generally thinks that rich people spend a lot of money to buy real scales that look no different from street stalls.

At the same time, a documentary has done science popularization to the public, saying that pulling out the scales of a mermaid is like pulling out human nails, which is an extremely cruel act.Now that human beings already have the imitation technology, there is no need to pursue the authenticity of the scales.

As soon as the documentary came out, those who sold real scales did not dare to come out to show their presence, and the market became a world of imitation scales.

In the final analysis, mermaid scales are just one of many materials, and the fire subsides after a while, and human decorations are still dominated by pearls, diamonds and jade.

Now the limelight of mermaid scales has passed, and the public generally thinks that buying mermaid scales at a high price as a collection is because they are full and have nothing to do, but this does not prevent rich people from being willing to pay for mermaid scales.

It's self-evident what Jiang Feng's "knowledge of goods" means.

If the scales were obtained by Jiang Feng going out to sea, nothing would happen.But Jiang Feng's identity couldn't stand the test, and a little investigation would reveal his identity as a mermaid.A mermaid lives unprotected in human society and sells its own scales. This is simply a walking money-making machine, and it will definitely be targeted by people.

When the time comes...Jiang Feng's fate can be imagined.

"Jiang Feng," Chu Qinyu was trembling with breathing, "Do you know what you are doing?"

"I know, this is what I call living by my ability and self-reliance."

Said Jiang Feng removed the clothes on the tail, frowned, and wiped the blood sticking to it with a tissue, "Speaking of which, can your clothes be washed by hand? It was accidentally dirty just now, if it can only be dry-cleaned If not, it will be a bit difficult."

Chu Qinyu was so angry at Jiang Feng's self-deprecating speech that his heart throbbed. In the eyes of the other party, his ragged clothes were more important than the injured tail.

He really wanted to ask Jiang Feng, was he not wronged when someone scratched his hand with a glass bottle inexplicably?Life is so hard that you can't afford to eat, so you have to sell your own scales for food, isn't it sad?Morning sickness and abdominal pain during pregnancy, no one to accompany you, isn't it sad?

Chu Qinyu swore that he didn't need Jiang Feng to apologize for all the bad things in the past, as long as the other party could say a soft word, even if it was just a complaint, saying that he was hungry or his tail hurt, he would immediately send someone Take Jiang Feng back to the base, and serve him with delicious food and drinks.

Although the two of them had a grudge against each other, he really didn't lose his conscience enough to take the life of a pregnant mermaid, or take revenge on the pregnant mermaid.Even before Jiang Feng? Tell him clearly that the child is not his, and he will not drive Jiang Feng out of the base.The Chu family has a big business, and raising a pregnant mermaid is no problem at all.

It is obvious that Jiang Feng has been trying to kill him, trying every means to make him angry, but now it is him who can't say no to scolding.

He didn't answer the question of whether the clothes could be dry-cleaned, Jiang Feng was not in a hurry, and surrounded the clothes into a small circle again.Seeing that the other party was about to pull out the scales again, Chu Qinyu stepped forward, pressed Jiang Feng's hand, and found a step for himself: "What's the matter with your clothes in a circle?"

"This," Jiang Feng stopped his hands and looked around at the clothes. "It's a ritual. Staying in the circle surrounded by the clothes and pulling out the scales can curse a person's bad luck. The more you pull out ?, the more obvious the effect is, the object of the curse... is the owner of the clothes."

The corner of Chu Qinyu's mouth twitched, "Really, why haven't I heard of this kind of ceremony?"

"I also heard it from hearsay. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to try it, so I tried it." Jiang Feng patted Chu Qinyu's shoulder, and said earnestly: "If you think about it with scales, you know, this is the product of feudal superstition, you Look at me pulling out so much, don't you still stand here, how can you look unlucky, so the rumors are not true?"

"Voice call," Chu Qinyu didn't give up, "It's so good, why do you have to keep talking with me? Just to let me listen to you silently pulling out your scales?"

"This..." Jiang Feng looked at him, and touched a scale with his hand, "After all, you were the one who took the initiative to call me, and I was just playing tricks. This feels like stabbing a villain in front of the other party. The main thing is It still plays a mocking effect, it has no practical meaning, don't think too much?"

"Jiang Feng," Chu Qinyu kept pressing Jiang Feng's hand, but the human strength was simply unable to compete with the mermaid, so he had to watch helplessly as the mermaid pulled off another scale, "We... can this be the only way?"

Can they just... live in each other's cold words?

His reply was silence, a long silence.

In silence, Jiang Feng silently wiped the blood on the scales for a long time.

Jiang Feng threw the scales in his hands aside: "If you want to hear some good things, I can't make them up."

"For example? Putting your clothes around me, it's just me deceiving myself to create the illusion that you are still in front of me; I insist on keeping the phone with you, just because it hurts too much, even if I can hear your breathing, to me Would it be much better?"

"I don't want to stain your clothes, because I will always have to return them to you in the future; for the wrong things in the past? There is no explanation in words, and I always speak bad words to you, because..."

Jiang Feng exhaled lightly, then looked at Chu Qinyu: "I won't live long."

"I've finished making up the excuse," Jiang Feng tilted his head and laughed, "How does it sound?"

This time, the silent person was replaced by Chu Qinyu.

Jiang Feng continued to pull out his scales slowly, "Just now, my thinking was a little bit off, I should actually expand it a little bit."

"For example? If you don't explain the mistakes you made in the past, and what kind of logical relationship does it have with me that I'm dying."

Every time Jiang Feng exerted force, it was accompanied by an inaudible gasp, "This involves, in the process of getting along with human beings, the 'self-dedication spirit produced out of self-movement' often appears in the process of getting along. In the With this kind of devotion, I will think that dying alone with your hatred will be better than dying with you after being reconciled with you."

Chu Qinyu held Jiang Feng's wrist tightly, he couldn't stop Jiang Feng at all, he could only watch the scales being pulled off one by one, his voice was stained with an imperceptible cry: "Jiang Feng, don't be like this... "

"Of course, these are just excuses, don't take it seriously? I just..." Speaking of this, Jiang Feng paused slightly, his face turned pale with pain, "I don't want our relationship to go back to the way it used to be .”

Blood slowly oozed from the skin and slid onto Chu Qinyu's favorite piece of clothing.

What was the relationship between the two people in the past, probably, it was a relationship where everything was pierced except for the window paper on the bright side.At the same time, it was also the kind of relationship that Jiang Feng could sneak out of the pool in the middle of the night, get into Chu Qinyu's bed after shaking off his body.

Chu Qinyu taught Jiang Feng to speak, taught Jiang Feng to write, and taught Jiang Feng what human emotions are.

All the knowledge of the mermaid about human society comes from Chu Qinyu, and all the longing for the land is also due to Chu Qinyu.

But now Jiang Feng said that he didn't want to go back to that relationship again.

"Chu Qinyu," Jiang Feng lowered his eyes and pressed his fingertips on a scale. If you look carefully, you can even see Jiang Feng's fingers trembling slightly: "Did you really...respect me, like respecting me?" Like other humans?"

"Of course I—" Chu Qinyu replied without thinking, and then the image of him chaining Jiang Feng into the sea flashed, "Of course... I respect you."

"Of course you respect me," Jiang Feng smiled, and renewed strength with his fingertips, "You just sent me back to the sea forcibly when I decided to stay and live with you; you just sent me back to the sea without my permission. Install a locator so that you can keep track of my movements at any time; it's just that after you caught me, you never thought of making me stand in court and pay the price for the experimenters who died in the explosion at your base, but silently put me Buckle down."

"I know you have selfish intentions. If it were me, I would be reluctant to let you go to prison, but...is it only because of selfish intentions? Isn't it because you think that I, an uncivilized creature, got into trouble and don't need to pay like a human being?" cost?"

Chu Qinyu bit his lower lip tightly, but couldn't say anything.

"Speaking of which, I want to clarify one thing," Jiang Feng continued to pull out his scales, but his hands trembled more and more because of the pain, "I am only responsible for your death. It doesn't matter, believe it or not."

"I believe you," Chu Qinyu hurriedly blocked Jiang Feng's movements with his hands, "Jiang Feng, stop."

"Anyway, I won't live long. When I really miss you, I will visit you, but I don't want to stay by your side anymore." Jiang Feng grabbed several scales in another area, with revenge Looking at Chu Qinyu with a normal smile, he exerted all his strength:

"The experience of being thrown back into the sea by you like an animal, once in a lifetime is enough."

Warm blood just splashed on Chu Qinyu's face.

Jiang Feng and he spread out his palm towards Chu Qinyu. On it were four blood-soaked scales, with a smile on his brows and eyes: "If you really treat me as an independent individual, then It is my freedom for me to treat myself like this, Chu Qinyu—"

Jiang Feng laughed more flamboyantly, panting violently, and said, "You..."

"I'm not qualified to control me."

Dead silence.

The whole room seemed to be choked by someone, and there was no sound in it.

It's just that what Chu Qinyu didn't know was that Jiang Feng's heart was also very flamboyant at the moment.

『It has to be said that the mermaid’s self-healing ability is too strong. ”Jiang Feng sighed with 10587, “But it doesn’t matter, as long as I pull out fast enough, the healing will not be able to catch up with me! 』

10587: "Go away, you bastard!" 』During the days when he was a cashier, Jiang Fengxian was very good. When he was bored, he used the small screen on his wristband to watch the documentary about mermaid scales.When he saw the documentary saying that the scales are the same as the nails, Jiang Feng returned to the hotel with the mentality of experimenting to gain true knowledge, and tried it with a tail.

In the end... Jiang Feng only had two words in his heart: that's it?

Well, it still hurts, but it’s nothing compared to having your nails pulled out. After watching these documentaries, no one has ever had their nails pulled out.

In this regard, 10587 has some explanations. It roughly means that what the documentary says is true, and Jiang Feng's perception of pulling scales is not wrong. The main problem lies in——

The time to pull the scales is wrong.

You must know that the merchant takes the scales from the mermaid, but it doesn't divide the time. If you catch them, you will squeeze them until they are bald.Under such circumstances, the behavior of the businessman is naturally inhumane torture.

But in fact, there is a period of "scale transformation" for mermaids, which is a large-scale replacement once every ten years, and the new scales will be more beautiful than the old ones.During the period of replacement, pulling out the scales will not be very painful. After all, it has to fall off by itself, but it just needs to fall off in advance.

It’s just that the merchants can’t wait for the renewal once every ten years, and the scales that fall off automatically are always bright, so the ornamental value is greatly reduced in comparison, so no one will go to collect them and replace them. of scales.

As for bleeding and so on, after all, it is manually pulled out, and some blood will be seen no matter what, this is a natural phenomenon, and you don't need to worry about it.Maybe Chu Qinyu came later? Jiang Feng's wounds have healed.

So in order to ensure that there is always new blood flowing out, Jiang Feng has been diligently pulling out his scales without any slack.

Just when Jiang Feng was standing alone on the commanding heights of morality and was too cold to survive, a cracking sound interrupted his thoughts.

That was the sound of Chu Qinyu's tears hitting the floor.

Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment: "No, he is not being kind, what's the matter crying when he can't say it?". 』

10587: "Otherwise? 』

Jiang Feng: "Under my crazy version of "I love you but I won't say it, I'm covered in bruises, come and hug me" performance, he shouldn't be moved with guilt, and then give me an affectionate love Hug, put the matter that I killed him once? Forget about it, let the two of us settle down, happy to mention HE. 』

10587: "Excuse me, is the plot so complicated?" Jiang Feng: "What's the matter with your flattering tone? This is a heart-piercing plot, can you be serious?" 』

Just when Jiang Feng finished speaking to 10587, Chu Qinyu specially cooperated with the twitching that started, the twitching of crying too excitedly.

Immediately, the atmosphere that was so hard to set up just now collapsed in an instant.

Jiang Feng sighed silently, and when he was lamenting that the whole night's foreshadowing might not be in vain, Chu Qinyu hugged him.

Although the person was still twitching, he still took the initiative to hug him.

"Jiang Feng," the other party touched his back, "I'm sorry. If I make you unhappy again in the future, come to me and don't hurt yourself, okay?"

Jiang Feng didn't speak. First, he didn't know what to say, and second, he shouldn't have said much after the "You have no right to control me" speech just now.

But in the end, he still hugged the other party back without leaving any traces. This was probably the first time after he entered this world, when the other party was conscious, he didn't have to worry about being stabbed by the other party at any time.

Chu Qinyu is very good at coaxing people, don't look at the usual appearance of a cold young master, after all, with Brother Chu's character as the background, he can't be too fierce.

Before? Chu Qinyu kept raising his eyebrows, mainly because he was angry with Jiang Feng.Before Chu Qinyu? He had a pretty good temper. He never tires of teaching Jiang Feng how to speak, the kind who wouldn't say anything even if Jiang Feng took advantage of him verbally.

When holding Jiang Feng, his hands were not idle, touching his neck for a while, rubbing his ears for a while, making various small movements frequently, trying every means to smooth Jiang Feng's hair.

Feeling that Jiang Feng gradually relaxed, his breathing gradually stabilized, and his body did not have the same resistance as when he hugged him, Chu Qinyu dared to distance himself from him and looked over carefully.

He straightened Jiang Feng's long hair, and asked in a low voice, "Do you feel better?"

Jiang Feng just looked at him for a while, and then looked away. After being hunted down by the other party for so long, he was suddenly so gentle. He was really?

Jiang Feng didn't speak, and Chu Qinyu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to comb Jiang Feng's hair.Through getting along with each other before, Chu Qinyu knew that the mermaid's temper itself is more irritable than that of human beings, and sometimes no one can suppress their temper, and they must obey, otherwise the situation will get worse later.What's more, Jiang Feng is now a pregnant mermaid, so emotional instability has to be added.

Jiang Feng's behavior of pulling out the scales is a means of venting extreme emotions.He knew that if the other party didn't pull out the scales like that, he would be the one who got hurt out of control.But he was still desperately trying to stop Jiang Feng. He would rather the opponent's sharp claws fall on him than let Jiang Feng hurt his own tail.

But... After all, it still failed. The whole bed was covered with Jiang Feng's scattered scales, stained with blood, it was shocking to watch.

Jiang Feng was so coaxed that his tail was up, but Chu Qinyu let go of him just after a short while: "I have to contact the staff and send over a set of mermaid medical kits. Your tail Need to deal with it? For a moment, this is not the case—"

However, before he finished speaking, Jiang Feng hugged him.

What a fucking medical kit, the wound on his tail has already healed without pulling out the scales.I'm afraid that the one brought up is not called a medical kit for mermaids, but a dump box for mermaids.

"I'm not leaving, I'm just going to make a phone call."

"No," Jiang Feng said as he snatched the phone away, "You can't touch the phone, you can only touch me."

Chu Qinyu: ...

"Then you press the phone, and I will be in charge of talking."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jiang Feng threw the phone aside, "I'm a merman, how could I call."

Chu Qinyu's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he still said kindly: "Jiang Feng, be obedient."

"I'm a mermaid," Jiang Feng hugged Chu Qinyu and lay down, wrapping Chu Qinyu in his arms so he couldn't move, "I can't understand human words."

"Jiang Feng!" Chu Qinyu scolded in a low voice.

"It's useless to yell at me, and it's not like you don't know," Jiang Feng sighed, "Your so-called mermaid-only medicine doesn't work for me at all."

"Even if the medicine doesn't work," Chu Qinyu pushed Jiang Feng's arm, earnestly said, "A bandage can also prevent wound infection, otherwise bacteria or something will enter the wound, I didn't tell you before—"

"Okay." Jiang Feng shook Chu Qinyu, and the other party's thoughts stopped abruptly. Jiang Feng also took this opportunity to bury him in the other party's chest.

"My wound hurts now," Jiang Feng sighed softly, and said weakly, "Chu Qinyu..."

"Don't make me talk."
