fog lock sea

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lan Qiyue let him go.He could clearly feel the heat coming from the injured part of his back, not from the sunlight, but from someone's warm palm.

After a while, Lu Qisheng felt that he was not so weak anymore.Lan Qiyue must have used some kind of super power to save him.He has always known that Lan Qiyue is not an ordinary person.

"Qiyue, thank you."

Lan Qiyue didn't answer him, but hugged him tightly.

"Sorry, I'm not here these days, I've made you feel wronged."

But the tender scene didn't last long.Suddenly, they were surrounded by heavily armed men, all holding strangely shaped weapons and guns aimed at their heads.The leader has no weapons in his hands, only something similar to a book: "Come back with us."

"Qiyue, who are they?"

"People from the Supernatural Organism Administration." Lan Qiyue looked into Lu Qisheng's eyes, and said word by word, "Are you afraid of me?"

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid you'll leave me behind." Lu Qisheng kissed his forehead, "Let me stay with you."

There was a warm smile on the bright red lips, and there was warmth in the cold blue eyes for the first time.

When Lu Qisheng came to his senses, he had already been thrown a hundred meters away, and he didn't feel any pain when he fell.

"Lan Qiyue!" Lu Qisheng yelled in pain, but no one answered him.

Dozens of impact shells were aimed at Lan Qiyue, mixed with the sharp sound of piercing through the air, drawing a mysterious light.Lan Qiyue opened her long arms, closed them, made a handprint, pressed her eyebrows, and a golden light rushed to the sky.The impact shells were immediately bounced off in pieces.

Suddenly a book enveloped his head, and the words in the book seemed to have grown feet, and they ran out to surround him.Under the strong pressure, he had to reveal the tail of the fish.

It turns out that the director of the Bureau of Supernatural Creatures was formed from the Code of the Sea Country, which is really ridiculous.The people of Haiguo actually believe in the existence of such a contradiction.

Fish cannot live without water.Even mermaids are no exception.

Lan Qiyue felt that her exposed skin was rapidly dehydrated and cracked, like the land suffering from drought.

The sea water was right in front of him, Lan Qiyue did not move a step, the sea water retreated a foot, he chased the sea water, just like Kuafu chasing the scorching sun in ancient times.He really longed for the waters of the great sea, though he knew full well that following the retreating waters would bring him back to the place where he had been cursed and imprisoned.

The director of the Ability Management Bureau who manipulated the books laughed loudly: "Lan Qiyue, you will always be my slave, and I cannot escape my curse!"

As soon as the welcome was over, someone jumped on him, trying to grab the books in his hand.

"Go away! Stupid human beings!" Lu Qisheng stumbled as soon as the head of the Ability Management Bureau waved his hand.

"I beg you, let the moon go." Lu Qisheng begged bitterly.

"Let him go?" The other party sneered, "It's not up to me. If you want to save him, just dig out your own heart, and he will be saved."

After finishing speaking, the director of the Ability Management Bureau dropped a knife with a faint cold light.

"Really? My heart can save him?"

"Of course it's true." The head of the Ability Management Bureau laughed secretly, he didn't let me, Lu Qisheng, do anything to me.After all, Lan Qiyue has followed him for thousands of years, but has not been able to influence him.If Lu Qisheng really loved Lan Qiyue, Lan Qiyue would have asked Lu Qisheng to open his heart to lift the curse for him.

The Director of the Ability Management Bureau is transformed by the Sea Country Code, he only believes in the laws of fairness and justice, and does not believe in the existence of true feelings in the world.What he wants to do is to continue to curse and imprison Lan Qiyue, to prove his authority once and for all, to prove his authority in the hearts of the people of Haiguo.

However, when Lan Qiyue stabbed her heart with the knife he gave, everyone was shocked.

Lan Qiyue, who was chasing the sea water, found that the curse on his body was lifted and his whole body returned to normal, but he was not ecstatic.A great sadness filled his heart, which made him unable to calm down for a long time.

"Asheng!" He ran towards Lu Qisheng desperately.His Ah Sheng is willing to risk his life to save him?He has followed him for thousands of years, and this ending surprised him and made him crazy.In this life, it was hard for Ah Sheng to like him a little bit, but the relationship between them could only go so far.

As the curse was lifted, the power in his body became stronger, and the spiritual power in his body even broke through his whole body and overflowed outward.He held Lu Qisheng in one hand, blood soaked most of his clothes.

The other hand grabbed the direction of the Director of the Ability Management Bureau, a golden light flashed, and one of the arms of the Director of the Ability Management Bureau was removed, revealing a white stone-like thing.All the people he brought turned into large and small stones, rolling around.

"I want you to die!" The bright red lips opened and closed slightly, making a cold voice.

"No! Impossible! No one can kill me!" The creature alienated from the sea country code looked at his body petrified bit by bit, showing a terrified and weird expression.It turns out that people can really give their lives for the one they love?He can't believe it's true!

The Hai Kingdom Law Code is the foundation of the Hai people's country. In the past, Pan Gu opened up the world and established the order of everything in the world. Gods and everything were born at this time.It is said that when the Pangu family passed the Kunlun Mountains and crossed the Shura Sea in the west, they left a scripture in the vast ocean.Later, by chance, it was picked up by the people of the sea tribe, who relied on this scripture to establish the order of the undersea kingdom. Therefore, this scripture became the belief of the Shura sea people, and the Shura sea people renamed it "the code of the sea country".The dragon god of the sea country guards the code of the sea country.And this law code has absorbed the will power of the belief of the Hai people, and it has spirituality itself.Those who violate the code will be cursed from the code.

It turned out that this legal code was a failed work of the Pan Gu clan. He intended to take it back to revise it, but unexpectedly lost it.Fa Dian had noticed it a long time ago. However, ten thousand years ago, Yun Dan, the first sea emperor of the sea country, fell in love with the human empress, and had a private relationship with her. The two gods gave birth to Lan Qiyue.In the minds of the people of the sea country, what the sea emperor did violated the code of the sea country, and he should be executed according to the law.In order to be with the Empress, Emperor Yundan found this loophole and tried to persuade the people of Haiguo to change the code.Cursed by the Codex.I don't want to admit the fact that I am a failure.He has always thought that the prosperity of the Asura Sea Empire.It all depends on a code.So there is nothing wrong with him.

In the end, Lan Qiyue destroyed the law code that had poisoned the people of Hai Nation for a long time, and smashed it to pieces.

The tide was slowly rising, and the moon was also hanging high. He hugged Lu Qisheng, sitting on the beach, his handsome jaw was stained with beautiful blood.

"A Sheng...A Sheng..." He called him over and over again, the blood in his chest had already flowed out.Such a situation cannot be cured by magic.

This has been the case in many lifetimes, he silently endured that Lu Qisheng liked other women, married them and had children, until his twilight years.Even though he was mad with jealousy, he still couldn't bear to hurt his life.He could only hug the dying Lu Qisheng, quietly watching his life go by bit by bit in his arms.Human life is short, this is the law of the world, no one can change it.It's just that, in this life, Lu Qisheng left too early.

Lu Qisheng felt as if he had a distant dream, the world in the dream was bright, and his mother was no longer bedridden, and she no longer recited things from the Bible.My father also has a decent job, and I am successful in my studies, I found a great job, and Lan Qiyue lives happily with me...

Haiguo people have long been accustomed to follow the code to maintain order and do not want to change their way of life.The law code was destroyed, and the sea people in the Shura Sea lost their faith.The current Haihuang Yutian finally led the tribe to migrate, and has lived in Ruoshui above the clouds ever since.The Shura Sea has become an ancient relic hidden under the deep sea. Since then, there are no more legends about mermaids in the world.

leading edge

——Blue Moon

Autumn comes to chill, and the long night is cold.

A round of full moon hangs on the tallest building in Li Country - the Pagoda of Longevity, and the icy light pours obliquely, reflecting the pale osmanthus flowers outside the sleeping hall.Suddenly a wild cat jumped out of the sweet-scented osmanthus bushes and got into another bush.

"Empress Xiao is about to give birth! What are you guys still doing in a daze? Hurry up! Hurry up and get the imperial doctor!"

An elderly woman in lake-green satin gasped, orderly commanding the maids under her command. Judging from her attire, her rank was much higher than the other court ladies.

"But, Miss Xie, Your Majesty once said... said..." A young palace maid said in a low voice, but was interrupted by Miss Xie in the middle of her words.

"What did you say? Now it's the empress's world! If you dare to break your mouth again, I will throw you into the pagoda to accompany the deposed emperor!"

"Of course, thank you, ma'am!"

The little maid quietly glanced at the towering Longevity Pagoda in the northwest, and couldn't help but tremble.I heard that the pagoda was filled with dead bodies, and crows often flew in and out of it, and the cries of ghosts could be heard in the middle of the night.

There were bursts of women's painful groans and groans in the bedroom, and the maids came in and out busily pouring water from the basin.Even the empress, who left the country and turned to the opposition, could not avoid screaming at the top of her lungs because of the pain caused by women in childbirth.

"Your Majesty, bear with me a little longer, the imperial doctor will be here soon."

"Miss Xie...in case something happens to me, you just let...someone go..."

Lady Xie knew that the person the empress mentioned was the abandoned emperor locked in the tower.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, there are heavy soldiers guarding outside the palace walls, that old thief, Uncle Qi, dare not act rashly!"

Several maids surrounded the bed, wiping the Empress's body non-stop.The woman who was giving birth on the dragon couch looked desperately at her bulging belly, with large beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, and Lady Xie could even see the slight burst of blue veins on the empress' forehead.

A trace of doubt flashed in the empress' mind, what will this child be like when it is born?Like her, or like that merman in Shura Sea?

"Thank you... lady officer, imperial doctor... imperial doctor..."

At this time, a palace lady ran in in a panic, with a frightened expression on her face.

"In a panic! It's against you! What happened?" Mrs. Xie stood up and walked in front of the maid.

"Uncle Qi and the others entered the palace, and the head of the imperial doctor...is gone..." Speaking of this, the palace maid couldn't bear it any longer, she was so frightened that she fainted to the ground.

"Useless stuff!"

Lady Xie kicked the maid, and wanted to go out to see what happened, but the empress stopped her.

"Miss Xie, please...please send someone to invite His Royal Highness to come down..."

His Highness the Emperor of the Asura Sea is the most enamored of her. At first, thanks to his help, she had the opportunity to dominate the wilderness. Now that she is in trouble in the court, the Emperor of the Sea will definitely not stand idly by.

"Your Majesty, the Sea Emperor is in danger now..."

There is a ban on the people of Haiguo, and the mermaid people are not allowed to communicate with mainlanders for generations.His Royal Highness Haihuang violated the family rules without authorization, and with the acquiescence of the Dragon God of Haiguo, his throne has been abolished, and he was secretly executed by the elders of Haiguo.

Could it be that today is her catastrophe?

Fortunately, she had already saved her hand, and reinforcements were on their way.

But the cramping was worse, and she gave birth to the child with her last breath.

Hearing the loud cry of the child, the mother of the child gradually closed her tired eyes.

This child actually has a fishtail!The maid reached out to hold the child, but was startled by the scene in front of her, and almost dropped the child to the ground.

"Ah, it's a monster!" A young court lady lost her voice.

"Slap your mouth! Get out of here!" Officer Xie snatched the child and held it in her arms.

Sure enough, it was the child of a merman.If he was allowed to stay in the palace, he would inevitably be called an ominous monster by those with evil intentions.

"Throw it away! Quick! Throw it as far away as possible." The dying empress suddenly said.

"But Your Majesty, this is your own flesh and blood." Madam Xie looked at the peacefully sleeping child in her arms with a sad expression. If you don't look at the tail, this is undoubtedly a beautiful child. His eyebrows and eyes are very similar to his shark. father.In any case, the child is innocent.

"This is an order! Madam Xie, you know, even if he is left alive, it is a crime for him to live! He is destined not to be like a normal person..." At the end, the voice of the empress sank.She is the only female emperor in the wilderness, which one of those pious men is not eyeing her throne?If the child of this foreign race is left behind, those people may have some troubles again.

"Subordinates obey."

Lady Xie arranged for a few confidantes to take care of the Empress, copied a small path in the palace, and brought the shark child to a river in the back mountain.To drown him?It is said that the merman walks on the ground like walking on the ground in the water. If she does not drown, it will be troublesome if she is picked up by passers-by.Do you want to do it yourself... An evil thought suddenly turned in Ms. Xie's mind.

The child in his arms woke up at some point, looked at her with wide and watery eyes, and suddenly showed her a lovely smile.

That pure and lovely smile hit her heart directly.As if being bewitched, a trace of love welled up in her heart.

Miss Xie entered the palace at the age of 15, and is now over half a century old.For many years, she has been serving the empress with all her heart, without any thought.However, the soft child in her arms touched the maternal love in her heart.

She made a crazy decision to run away with the child and raise her.

However, Miss Xie didn't know that the mermaid was born without gender. She thought the baby was extremely beautiful, so she thought it was a girl.Mermaids can remember things when they are born, and their minds are more sound than children born on land.But no matter what, they are equally vulnerable at birth and need to be cared for equally.

Miss Xie ran away with the child in her arms, escaped from the city, and fled to a far away place, which is the southernmost part of the Great Wilderness, and it is also the poorest place in the Great Wilderness. There is an endless sea here, and there are only fishing villages and tribes in twos and threes on the beach.

Far away from the imperial capital, the empress wouldn't be able to send people all the way to chase them down.

With the protection of an adult, the child in his arms also grew up very quickly.As the child grew up, Ms. Xie found a place near the water.The child lives in the water every day, and a lot of fresh sea fish will be placed at the door of the house in the early morning.

The child was born on the night of the full moon, and her father was once His Highness the Emperor of the Sea in the blue sea, so she named him Lan Qiyue.Ms. Xie sometimes taught the child to speak, and the child learned the language very quickly, except that he refused to learn the word "mother".Ms. Xie was somewhat disappointed.

Ten years passed in a flash.Ms. Xie is an old man in her twilight years.But the merman child grows much slower than the children on land.

The strange thing is that every full moon night, the child will become very weak, and if no one is watching him to talk to him, he will fall asleep and pass out.

Every time the child woke up, he would tell her calmly: "Auntie, I had the same dream again. In the dream, I heard a curse from the deepest part of the distant sea. Someone cursed that I would never go home, and that I would die in Night of the full moon."

"Then are you afraid?"

"Not afraid, I just, don't want to die like that."

I don't know if it's because of getting older, but Ms. Xie always sighs recently: "Qiyue, grow up quickly, aunt won't live long, oh, I'm leaving, who else can accompany you..."

Lan Qiyue didn't want to call her mother, so Ms. Xie simply asked her to call herself "aunt".

On the night of the full moon, a young female robber broke into the seaside hut, holding a dagger that was whiter than the moonlight.The hut is very simple and has nothing of value.In order to snatch the pearl necklace hanging from the lady officer's neck, the female robber stabbed her heart with a dagger.Officer Xie was unwilling to let go of the necklace until she died.

And Lan Qiyue hid in the water, waiting for the curse to begin tonight.But suddenly saw all this happened on the shore.

But he is too weak, he can't do anything.

In the end, he decided to rush ashore and die with the female robber. In the panic, the female robber's knife scratched his hand. Although the female robber was fierce, she had never seen a creature with a fish tail and a mouth full of fangs. Finally, she ran away screaming. .

For the first time, Lan Qiyue knew how hideous and terrifying she looked when she was angry.

"Ah Yue, live well." Officer Xie, covered in blood, raised her hand to gently caress the child in front of her.

"Mother... Mother?" Lan Qiyuemu called out to her mother.

At first she was going to kill him, but then she treated him well.Now, she is dead.

Before she died, her eyes kept looking at the distant sea, and she kept chanting the name "Yundan".The name of the sea emperor of the merman race.

When he can melt off his tail, the first thing he will do is to find a female bandit, peel her heart alive, then tear up her body and throw it into the sea to feed the fish.

But, in the future, who will always be with him?

——Lu Qisheng

A long, long time ago, a tsunami without warning occurred in a remote small fishing village in Zhongzhou. The fishermen thought it was caused by a sea monster with a human body and a fish tail. The local chronicles recorded the tsunami in detail. Few strokes.

Things go something like this:

On a full moon night, the fishermen are still asleep.The sudden violent waves accompanied by the storm destroyed the large and small boats tied to the shore. The people who were fishing at the moment did not even have time to paddle to escape, they were swallowed by the huge waves and disappeared without a trace in an instant.Half of the nearby houses were swept away by the tsunami, including the people who were sleeping soundly in the houses.

After the tsunami, the once prosperous fishing village became a mess.Even though the sea has returned to calm, there is no more fishing boat in sight.People who have been fishing for generations have lost their food sources and economic sources, and most of the survivors have become refugees.

The beach was full of people who came to pick up small fish and shellfish. Seven-year-old Ah Sheng also carried a small basket on his back and dug east and west on the nearby beach, hoping to pick up some small crabs and go home.

All edible things on the beach were dug up and picked up by the crazy refugees.Ah Sheng only picked up the empty shell of a small conch.When you blow gently with your mouth, the conch will make a pleasant sound.Ah Sheng never tired of playing.

The father polished the planks at home to make new boats, and the mother made the net with ropes at home.The dried fish at home is almost eaten.In order to fight against famine, we must save food. Two small dried fish are enough food for a family of three for a day.Before noon, Ah Sheng was already so hungry that his stomach was growling.The sand in this place has been turned over many times by people. He might have good luck blowing the little conch and walking further to the beach.

Before the tsunami occurred in this small area of ​​water, there was no fish and shrimp, and fishermen never came to this area to fish.There was actually a mass of kelp floating on the shallow water beach! Ah Sheng was overjoyed. He grew up in a fishing village and had already developed good water skills.He took off his clothes, jumped into the water, and made a slash, only to find it was a mess of hair when he touched it!

The miracle is that the hair can move! The young Ah Sheng was more curious than fear, watching the hair slowly rise from the water, and finally poked out the head of a little girl about his own age.Ah Sheng's mouth remained open for a long time in shock: "Who are you?"

Ah Sheng had never seen such a beautiful girl.

The dark blue eyes in front of him rolled slowly, and there was no blood on the fair face. The long-haired girl didn't answer him, and turned around and went back into the water again.

Ah Sheng chased after him and competed with him for holding his breath underwater. Among the children of his age, no one could beat him.Ah Sheng quickly overtook the long-haired girl, grabbed one of his hands, held it in mid-air above the water, and said with a triumphant smile, "Admit defeat."

Ah Sheng's smile froze suddenly. There was a long and terrifying wound on the girl's arm. The flesh was turned outwards, and the sea-foamed wound was still oozing blood.

The little girl grinned in pain.

"You're hurt." Ah Sheng frowned delicately like a little adult.

The long-haired girl wanted to break away from Ah Sheng's hand, but the tingling sensation from her hand made her weak.

"Hey, let me bandage you. Otherwise it will hurt."

Ah Sheng took his hand and swam to the shore, but the little girl with long hair stayed in the water, unwilling to go ashore.The water on the shore was very shallow, and Ah Sheng accidentally saw that the girl had not human legs, but a fish tail!

"Are you... a human or a fish?"

The long-haired girl lowered her eyes, the dark blue in her eyes dimmed, looking disappointed, and then swam back into the water.

"Hey! Don't go. Let's be friends!" My mother said that only by doing good deeds, the gods will bless you.Besides, she was hurt and needed help.

The little head was gone, and there were only circles and circles of ripples on the surface of the water.

"Hey~ I'm serious, no matter you are a man or a fish, I will help you. My name is Asheng." Asheng reiterated again.

Boom~ There are circles of ripples on the surface of the water.

A small black head suddenly emerged from the water, looking at him suspiciously.

Asheng showed a cute smile: "Be obedient, give me your hand, which one is injured."

The little girl slowly stretched out her right hand from the water, and Ah Sheng took out the handkerchief his mother had prepared for him to wipe his sweat before going out, and wrapped up the injured area.I also tied a bow after learning how my mother tied a bow.

"Ah Sheng, it's time to eat! Where are you?"

It was my mother's voice.Hearing the word "eat", Ah Sheng's stomach growled again.

"I'll come to play with you in the afternoon. I'm going home now. I should worry if my mother can't find me."

The little girl also seemed to hear the sound coming from Ah Sheng's stomach, and she caught a fish from somewhere and threw it into the basket next to Ah Sheng.

In return, Ah Sheng gave him a small conch.Then he happily ran towards his mother.

"Where did the little thing go wild? You didn't even hear me!" Mother tugged at Asheng's ears all the way.Ah Sheng deliberately grinned and shouted in pain.

"Mother, do you think there is anyone with the body of a fish?" Ah Sheng stopped and asked suddenly.

Children's imaginations are always boundless.The mother answered casually: "Monsters look like this."

Could it be that what I just encountered was a monster?But don't all monsters look terrible, and they still eat children?

"Recently, if you have nothing to do, stay at home and don't run around. The divination of the goddess in the temple shows that there are sea monsters in our fishing village, and the previous tsunami was also caused by sea monsters. Your father went to catch sea monsters with the uncles in the village after dinner. Demon. You stay at home obediently."

"Ok."

He knew his mother's temper, so Ah Sheng had no choice but to agree with his mother.I had to go see him again tomorrow.

The next morning, Ah Sheng just woke up from his sleep, and heard his father tell his mother that the sea monster was caught and tied up in the yard of the village chief’s house. Tonight, the sea monster will be burned to pay homage to the sea god, so as to appease the anger of the sea god and protect the fishing village. peace.

Asheng was curious about what a good demon looked like, so he sneaked to the village chief's house after breakfast. He was the same age as the village chief's grandson, Fugui, and the two played well.

The village chief's yard is near a calm sea.Ah Sheng yelled outside the door, and Fu Gui immediately came out of the yard and led him in.Fugui had just planned to go out to see the Kraken with Ah Sheng.Unexpectedly, Ah Sheng came by himself, Fugui jumped up happily.

The girl tied up in the yard was the little girl Ah Sheng met at the beach yesterday, and Ah Sheng recognized her immediately.She was tied to a post, her hair disheveled, and she was dying.The wound that Ah Sheng bandaged for him yesterday was still oozing blood, the blood soaked the white handkerchief, and the fish's tail was also covered with scars.

Ah Sheng burst into tears suddenly, Xu Shi saw Ah Sheng, the girl with a mermaid body suddenly raised her drooping head, her hair was disheveled, showing a slight smile, her blue eyes were not as bright as yesterday.

Fu Gui looked at A Sheng suspiciously: "Why are you crying, A Sheng."

"Fu Gui, can you beg your grandfather to let her go, she is very poor." A Sheng begged.

Fugui nonuo said: "Grandpa said she is a sea monster, if we let her go, we will all be killed by him."

"She's not a sea monster. She even gave me a small fish yesterday. Let's let her go secretly. Look, Fugui, she has a lot of blood, and she's about to die."

Asheng has always been a bodhisattva since he was a child, and he always frowns handsomely when he sees others in deep pain.

Children's friendships are fearless and strong.Fugui nodded, and whispered, "But what should we do, there are so many people outside."

A Sheng had an idea: "Let's play a game, you go and distract them, and I will untie the rope."

Asheng whispered a few words into Fugui's ear again, and let Fugui fall to the ground, pretending to be attacked by a sea monster, so as to distract the adults.When the children are free, they often perform the tricks in the storybook, so they act in a decent way.

Amidst the confusion, Ah Sheng loosened the rope tied to the injured girl, and the girl jumped off the tail of the fish with a "boom" and jumped into the nearby well.

This well just happens to be connected to the sea.In the chaos, no one noticed that a seven-year-old child had untied the rope.

Soon, the escape of the siren was discovered by the villagers.Fugui betrayed Ah Sheng for a piece of candy.

The sea monster escapes, and the villagers will all suffer.

The old village head gathered the fishermen together to discuss how to deal with Xiao Asheng who let the sea monster go.

Some villagers believe that Ah Sheng was bewitched by the sea monster, and soon Ah Sheng himself will become a monster.He must be drowned in the sea to sacrifice to the God of the Sea, and to protect the small fishing village from the famine.

This proposal was immediately supported by everyone, but Ah Sheng's parents objected, but no one listened to it.

In this life, Ah Sheng will not have time to grow up in the future.

Twenty years later, when Lan Qiyue came to the small fishing village again, he inquired about A Sheng's whereabouts, but only heard bad news.

In this way, he was wandering in the world, searching and waiting at the same time, in order to catch a little warmth, to meet him again and embrace him.
