sweet mouth can save lives

Qiqiu is an ordinary and ordinary little merman in the merman kingdom.

The Yuren Kingdom has not been peaceful recently, the king was suddenly assassinated by his younger brother, and the only heir, His Highness the Prince, is nowhere to be found.The king's younger brother sat on the throne and took over the entire Merman Kingdom.

But the new king is not a kind-hearted mermaid. He is extravagant and dissipated, forcing his subjects to donate beauties and treasures. He only knows how to have fun all day long, and ignores state affairs at all.

Fortunately, the sharks shed tears and could barely maintain the operation of a country.

It's just that people from other tribes are already eyeing the border.

None of these new kings knew about it, let alone Qiqiu.

The beauty pageant brigade under the king will soon sweep into the village where Qiqiu is.It is said that this batch of draft teams is iron-hearted, and any merman with some good looks will be captured by them and dedicated to the new king.The ones the new king likes stay in the palace, and the ones he doesn't like...

No one knows where they are now.

"Qiuqiu, run away!" Now the old people in the village would repeat the same sentence when they saw Qiqiu.

The village where Qiqiu lives is an old-age village in the Yuren Kingdom. Many older Yuren who do not want to cause trouble to their offspring gather together to live together. They are strangers to each other and take care of each other, calmly waiting for death to come.Qi's father and Qi's mother are warm-hearted. They voluntarily moved to a place not far from the old people's village, and took care of these old people as much as they could.

Qiqiu is the only merman born near the village in the past 50 years.He is cute and considerate, and because of Qi's parents, everyone in the village cherishes him.

They were afraid that Qiqiu would really be taken away and disappeared like countless innocent young mermaids.

This made Qi's father and Qi's mother very anxious, and Qi's mother even shed tears watching her stupid son, wishing she could break into the palace with a knife and kill the prostitute king.

That night, the village chief came to Qi's house, took out a handful of seaweed-like things and put them on the table.

The village chief is a kind and intelligent old man, and he is the most trusted and respected shark in the village.He patted Qiqiu's head, and said to Qi's father, "Let Qiuqiu eat this Haixuan grass, then he can lose his tail and transform into legs. It's not safe to stay in the sea after all, so go hide on land for a while." Bar."

Mother Qi asked with red eyes: "Well, can this work? Qiuqiu has never been to land! I'm worried..."

The village head comforted Qi's mother and said, "Don't worry, I have a good friend who has been away from the sea for many years and has already taken root on land. I have already sent him a sound transmission with a conch and asked him to take care of Qiuqiu for a while. Wait for this turmoil After that, let Qiuqiu come back."

The village chief arranged so well, Qi's father and Qi mother were so grateful that they sent Qiqiu to the seaside with the village chief overnight.

The wind was strong at night, blowing the waves one after another.The village head and Qi's parents could not go ashore, so they had to send him to the nearest rock to the coast.Qiqiu saw a tall and tall man standing on the bank from a distance, and he could feel that man's eyes on himself.

Qi's mother wiped away her tears and told him: "Be obedient when you get to someone else's house, and don't cause trouble for others."

Qiqiu knew very well that his parents and the village chief were doing this for his own good, so even though he himself was full of fear of the land, he managed to comfort his parents with a smile: "I know! Don't worry!"

After finishing speaking, he took the Haixuan grass from the village chief and ate it.

He lay on the reef, quietly waiting for the change of the fish's tail.

Not long after, a burst of blue mist rose, covering Qiqiu's entire lower body.When the dense fog cleared, a pair of white legs replaced the previous tail and appeared on Qiqiu's body.

"It's changed! I have legs!" Qi's mother patted Qi's father excitedly.

Qi's father was in pain, but he didn't dare to resist, and gave Qi Qiu a few more instructions, and then left reluctantly with Qi's mother and the village chief, and swam back to the deep sea.

Qiqiu parted from the three of them, and looked at the backs of his parents, feeling inexplicably wronged.

He bit his lip, tried to force back the moisture in his eyes, and swam towards the shore.

Zhong Changhua saw Qiqiu for the first time, because he couldn't walk, he was naked and wriggled on the ground with difficulty.I don't know if he rubbed against a small stone, there are red marks on his chest, and tears are still shining in his big eyes.

is pink.

Before Zhong Changhua opened his eyes, he said something silently in his heart.

"My name is Zhong Changhua. My father and mother are traveling far away. Please ask me to take care of you for a while."

Zhong Changhua carried Qiqiu to the car, took out a blanket and wrapped him from head to toe, and briefly introduced himself.

Wrapped in a fluffy blanket, Qi Qiu stared blankly at Zhong Changhua's handsome side face.

This man is really good looking.Is he a mermaid too?Fortunately, he was not in the sea, otherwise he might have been taken away.

He thought blankly, already forgetting his fear and grievance.

Zhong Changhua glanced at the rearview mirror while driving back home.In the mirror, Qiqiu opened a pair of bright eyes, looking at him without hesitation.Zhong Changhua looked away and took a deep breath.

It's the smell of the deep sea.It coincides with the ocean-flavored aromatherapy he puts in his car.

Zhong Changhua is the offspring of mermaids and humans.

It's just that he couldn't change his tail since he was a child, and his father was very happy about it.Since his father had a mother, he never thought about going back to the deep sea, and he didn't want his son to go back. A family is a happy family.

But perhaps because of genetic inheritance, Zhong Changhua still likes the sea very much.He is also very good at swimming. Since he was a child, he has represented the city in various swimming competitions, and his medals are always brought home.He was also reported as a child swimming genius.It's a pity he loves swimming but is tired of competition.Now I just occasionally go for a swim in the sea with my father to feel the atmosphere of my hometown.

Although he has never actually visited it, according to his father's embellished description, he has no good imagination of the deep sea.

It's just a dark place, surrounded by ugly monsters except for the merman.

It's just that such a dark place can raise a white and tender person like Qiqiu?

For the first time, Zhong Changhua had doubts about his father.

It was quiet in the car, they met in the middle of the night, naturally there were not many people on the road, and even cars were rare.Qiqiu leaned on the car window to look curiously at those multicolored neon lights, which were so bright that they were not much different from the luminous crystals in the sea.

At the beginning, he was a little afraid of this iron box that could run, but Zhong Changhua patiently explained the concept of cars and vehicles to him

"Vehicle? That's like a big guy floating on the sea with a human standing on it?" Qiqiu asked curiously.

Zhong Changhua thought for a while, guessing that he might be talking about a ship, nodded: "Almost."

Only then did Qiqiu relax. Sometimes he would secretly swim to the shallow sea with his parents on his back, hiding behind the rocks to peek at passing ships and humans.

He could see young men and women hugging and kissing in the corner of the ship in the evening.They smiled and held each other's hands tightly and stared at each other, and they could understand each other's feelings without speaking.The passing seagulls sang praises for them, the dolphins swimming were their guests, and the sound of the ship's whistle happened to be the hammer struck by the priest.

On the boundless ocean, they exchanged love and agreed for a lifetime.

Qiqiu fears the land, but yearns for the human world.

When he got home, Zhong Changhua carried him upstairs, after thinking about it, he put a tub of hot water for him to soak in.

Qiqiu looked at him miraculously, pointing to the bathtub and asked, "Is this my bed today? I like it."

Zhong Changhua was amused by him: "No." He taught Qiqiu about shower gel and shampoo.

Qiqiu couldn't put it down to these two fragrant bottles, holding the bottles and sniffing non-stop: "It smells so good."

Like a child, he smeared the shower gel on his body indiscriminately, but he didn't think it was enough, so he grabbed the bottle and wanted to pour it on his face.

Fortunately, Zhong Changhua had quick eyesight and quick hands, and snatched the bottle away.

Qiqiu was taken aback, and soon realized that he might have done something wrong, he shrank back, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong..."

Zhong Changhua sighed and stretched out his hand to pull him over.He picked up the shampoo and put it in his hands, made a lather and then rubbed it on Qiqiu's head: "Just put a little bit on it."

Qi Qiu sat obediently, motionless, and let Zhong Changhua rub him into rounds and flatten him.

After taking a shower, Zhong Changhua dried his hair with a hair dryer, and Qi Qiu squinted his eyes in enjoyment.Zhong Changhua brought Yunnan Baiyao again, and sprayed it on Qi Qiu's few marks drawn by sand and stones at the seaside.

Qiqiu was unexpectedly stung by the medicine, and hissed.

"What is this, Mr. Zhong, is it punishment?" Qi Qiu was stunned, but he didn't dare to resist, he thought Zhong Changhua was still angry just now.

Zhong Changhua said helplessly: "It's not punishment, I won't punish you." He covered Qiqiu with a quilt and left a small lamp, "Sleep, I will teach you how to walk tomorrow."

He also remembered that Qiqiu couldn't walk.

Qiqiu couldn't help laughing in the dark, Mr. Zhong is really a gentle person.

On the second day, Zhong Changhua kept his word and supported Qiqiu step by step to adapt to walking on two legs.

Qi Qiu was too impatient, as soon as he had some strength, he was about to break away from Zhong Changhua's support and walk away.As a result, he lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground as soon as he took two steps.

He screamed and closed his eyes to meet the pain, but fell on a warm and firm body, and it was Zhong Changhua who hugged him firmly.

Qiqiu cautiously opened his eyes and blinked twice, his fan-like eyelashes lightly brushed Zhong Changhua's Adam's apple.Zhong Changhua only felt an itch rising from nowhere.

"Take your time." He let go of Qiqiu and continued to support him.

Qiqiu is much more honest now, and practiced in a well-behaved manner.

Teach Qiqiu to walk not so difficult, Qiqiu is considered a smart child, but in just two days, he has gone from being uncomfortable at the beginning to walking like flying now.

Zhong Changhua taught him the rules of survival in the human world little by little, such as simply crossing the road to watch the traffic lights, to buy things to pay, chewing gum is edible but it is a condom...

and many more.

The annual leave soon passed, and Zhong Changhua had to return to the company to continue working.

He left Qiqiu the necessary money, and said to him: "I'm going to work, you stay at home. If you're hungry, you can order takeaway or go downstairs to buy fast food, but don't go far. If you don't know anything, remember to call Give it to me. What's my phone number?"

Qiqiu proficiently reported a long series of numbers.

Only then did Zhong Changhua feel relieved to leave.

It's like raising a son.

This day's work is not stable, Zhong Changhua is worried about too many things, and picks up his mobile phone to watch the news feed from time to time.He was afraid of seeing his home address on social news.Such as fire, such as natural gas explosion and so on and so on.

When an unfamiliar number called, Zhong Changhua answered it in seconds, and when he heard the cold male voice from the opposite side ask "Hi, do you know a person named Qiqiu?", he felt strangely relieved.

It's coming, it's still coming.

When he arrived at the police station, Qiqiu sat there at a loss, looking innocent, dazed, and pitiful.

"Hello, I am Qiqiu's guardian."

The police briefly narrated the incident, and Zhong Changhua finally understood that Qiqiu had met Pengci.

He went downstairs to buy fast food, saw the old lady lying on the side of the road, hurried to help her up, but was bitten back, insisting that Qiqiu hit her.

Asking for money, Qiqiu didn't understand, so he gave all the 50 yuan in his hand to the old lady.The old lady became angry and said that Qiqiu sent the beggar and scolded him bloody.

Perhaps Qiqiu was so pitiful when he stood there blankly being scolded, some kind-hearted people couldn't stand it and helped to call the police, explaining to the police that the child was innocent.

The police took both of them to the police station to make notes.

"You don't have to worry, this old lady is a habitual offender, we all know it. Just go back and comfort your children." The policeman said.

"You said the police would arrest the bad guys, but why did they arrest me?" Qiqiu bit his lower lip, recalling the scene where the old lady blocked him in the middle of the road and yelled at him, the more he thought about it, the more wronged he was, and a crystal tear rolled down .Zhong Changhua reached out to catch it, and sure enough, the teardrop instantly turned into a bean-sized pearl, "I didn't do anything bad..."

Zhong Changhua rubbed his hair: "The police take away a person not all because he did something wrong, sometimes they need to understand and record what happened, as long as you did nothing wrong, they will not wrong you .”

"Really?" Qiqiu asked tearfully.

Who knows, there are good people in the world, and naturally there are bad people.

Zhong Changhua avoided the topic: "You haven't eaten yet, I'll take you to eat."

Qiqiu nodded quickly. He came to the human world and found out that there are so many delicious things.

As a result, Zhong Changhua also forgot what, and brought him to a Japanese restaurant.When the sashimi was served, he finally remembered that the guy in front of him was a mermaid who just came from the deep sea.

Qiqiu stuffed it into his mouth as if he didn't care: "It's delicious, it's delicious."

"You... also eat fish?" Zhong Changhua was a little surprised.

"Why don't you eat it?" Qiqiu asked strangely, "Don't you eat it? But in the sea, if you don't eat fish, you can only eat seaweed. Mom said to have a balanced nutrition."

Zhong Changhua took a sip of water and laughed secretly at himself for thinking too much.Isn't it very common for big fish to eat small fish in the ocean? He thought that sharks would abide by the habit of not eating their own kind.

In fact, the main reason is that he himself has never seen his father eat sashimi.But what he didn't know was that it was because his father was tired of eating fish, and when he came to land, he vowed to eat all the delicacies in the world, except fish.

This episode passed quickly, and Qiqiu has gradually become familiar with the human world.

Zhong Changhua would take Qiqiu to go shopping and eat on weekends if he had nothing to do, and seeing Qiqiu's surprised and satisfied expression made him feel a little happy for some reason.
