Adventure of picking up a mermaid egg

Xiaocang felt relieved after finding his little friend, but Jinghai and the others had to be more vigilant again.Because they don't know what is waiting for them in this mysterious ice cave...

The mermaids have also lived on the bottom of the sea for tens of millions of years. Although they don't know every corner of the sea well, they can at least know the most basic geographical distribution.But why this ice cave has never been discovered by the mermaids?

Obviously, to discover the entrance of this ice cave requires a certain chance.According to Luo Hai, there has always been a large barren rock forest nearby, and there are usually very few creatures wandering around here, and even the most basic seaweed plants are difficult to survive here.Due to the lack of the most basic food source, there are basically few living things in this rocky forest.

The mermaids rarely set foot in this barren area, and if it wasn't because the planned route happened to pass through this place this time, they would not easily set foot here.Moreover, if they hadn't happened to encounter the oil spill ahead and the fleeing army under the sea, they would not have found that cave to rest temporarily in a hurry.

In other words, the location of the cave is not particularly hidden, and other creatures should have entered it before, but why did they happen to discover this strange entrance?What exactly prompted this never-before-discovered entrance to the ocean floor?

All the way, Jinghai has been thinking about this question.

"Xiao Hai, before leaving, did Yan tell you about the conflict between our clan and human cultivators?" Luo Hai said suddenly at this moment.

Jing Hai was startled, looked around at the normal-looking guards, and realized that what Luo Hai was about to say was not a secret to the mermaid clan.He nodded: "He mentioned it a little bit, but didn't go into details."

"Have you read Journey to the West?" Luo Hai suddenly asked a very abrupt question.

Jing Hai nodded suspiciously: "Of course." In China on land, it is one of the famous books that everyone must read.

"The dragon king of the four seas in it is in charge of the four seas, calling the wind and rain, so beautiful. However, the dragon king in the book still has to obey the Jade Emperor. Tang Seng's fourth disciple, Bailong, was removed because he broke a glazed lamp of the queen mother. The dragon tendons were demoted to the mortal world. In order to cultivate the true fruit, he became the disciple and mount of the Tang monk. There are also legends that a certain dragon king was punished and beheaded because he missed an inch of rain. Why do those dragon kings who are almost invincible in the sea still have to obey orders? Yu Emperor? Even accepting such harsh punishment for a small mistake?"

Jing Hai was speechless, he realized that the examples Luo Hai gave must be reflecting something.

In fact, Luo Hai didn't need Jing Hai to answer anything, he just continued to speak: "In the eyes of human beings, human beings are the top of all things, and other alien races can only prostrate at the feet of human beings to accept domination. People who are not my race must have different hearts? Humph! "

Speaking of this, Luo Hai snorted coldly, Jing Hai's heart trembled subconsciously, and suddenly felt that the temperature nearby was a little lower.

"That's just an excuse made by human cultivators for their own narrow-mindedness!" Luo Hai said coldly, "The abilities of the ancient mermaid tribe were as good as the Dragon King of the Four Seas, even just as high. They can call wind and rain on the bottom of the sea. Creatures are respected by the mermaid family, and obey the deployment of our family. The mermaid family at that time was not called the mermaid family, but the sea family! At that time, the sea was a united iron bucket, and it was thriving and prosperous under the leadership of our family. The culture of the seabed was developing. During that period, the Sea Clan lived peacefully with humans, and there were even many intermarried partners of the Clan and humans. However..."

Jinghai opened his mouth, but he didn't speak. Xiaocang, who was hugged tightly in his arms, continued to listen quietly to Luo Hai's words.

"Later, human cultivators appeared. They coveted the rich treasures and resources in the seabed, and appeared in front of our ancestors with a lofty attitude, and made the sea people submit to them for their dispatch and tribute treasures to them."

Jinghai let out a low cry and frowned, the next result is not difficult to predict.

"My family naturally disagreed, so the long war between the human cultivators and the sea clan began. More importantly, later, some cultivators discovered that adding the flesh and blood of the mermaid clan during the refining process can make it easier to refine the weapon spirit. It made the refining work twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, the greedy human cultivators launched a frantic hunt for the mermaids. Naturally, the powerful mermaids at that time would not just watch their own people being killed, and launched a more tenacious resistance. The cultivators' obsession and murderous intent became deeper, poisoning, false surrender, trapping, rounding up the Luodan people and other despicable methods emerged one after another, and under the crazy attack of human cultivators, the number of the Sea Clan dropped sharply."

Luo Hai closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he was suppressing something, his voice was low and hoarse: "Seeing that the clan is facing a crisis of survival, the four strong men of the clan led the elite of the clan and the human cultivators Fight to the death. At the same time, order the clansmen to take this opportunity to immediately evacuate their original residence and live in a deeper seabed."

"What happened later?" Jing Hai couldn't help asking.

"Later..." Luo Hai looked at the ice wall on the side, his eyes were far away, "then none of the warriors from those tribes came back. I heard that the decisive battle was earth-shattering, and the despicable human cultivators used crowd tactics Shengsheng dragged the warriors of the clan there, and also sent people to the bottom of the sea, planning to make a mess! Fortunately, the clansmen obeyed the orders of the strong and evacuated early, and the human cultivators could not stand upright under the water for a long time This is why we were not able to exterminate our clan. The four strong men and warriors in the grief-stricken clan tried their best to perish together with all the cultivators present... The elite of the mermaid clan withered in that decisive battle For some reason, the mermaid's ability has been weakened from generation to generation, and now, the mermaid can only use some basic magic, and the ability to call the wind and rain has been lost a long time ago."

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent, Jing Hai squirmed his mouth, and finally asked the question in his heart softly: "Luo Hai, do you hate human beings?"

Luo Hai paused, looked at Jinghai with deep eyes, then shook his head: "At the beginning, the clansmen hated humans so much, even the half mermaids in the clan who used to be human were rejected. But after thinking about it, the clansmen found that they are more A lesson should be learned from this battle. The mermaid tribe has always lacked understanding and communication with humans on land, and they do not have enough wisdom and experience to deal with humans. Cultivate a group of clansmen to sneak out to live on land and inquire about news. The clansmen on land reported that the human comprehension clan was also weakened because of that war, and gradually faded out of the sight of ordinary people. It was a lose-lose situation. The war of the mermaid race... The frequent activities of the mermaid race among humans did not officially rise until after the appearance of the great half-mermaid ancestor."

Although Luo Hai said so, Jing Hai still felt uneasy in his heart: "But..." There is such an obscure history between humans and mermaids... The reason is still in humans...

"Don't worry, Xiao Hai. If our clan is still very human, we will not agree to the intermarriage between our clan and humans, and we will not agree to our clan's random wandering in human society. The mermaid clan is not cunning enough for humans, which is also a part of the mermaid clan's lack of ability. This kind of performance. Our people have never resented ordinary humans, but they are still a little sensitive to human cultivators."

"No wonder you were so jealous of Senior Xu at the beginning..."
