Chapter 342 My name is Mu Xinhai, you can call me Xinhai
"If you keep crying, I'll cut you into mermaid fillets and boil them for you!"
As he spoke, Ning Changge grasped the air, and the Yellow Spring Sword instantly appeared in his hand, not forgetting to deliberately show his sharp white teeth.
Feeling the terrifying aura of the enchanting blood sword, the little mermaid was so scared that her ice-blue fish tail straightened instantly, and her ear fins snapped together and became two small scallops.
She quickly covered her mouth, tears hanging on her long eyelashes as if about to fall, and said, "Well... don't cook me, the meat is really sour... it doesn't taste good..."
Ning Changge shook Huang Quan in front of the little mermaid and threatened her, "I can not cook you, but you have to answer a few questions for me first. If you can answer them to my satisfaction, I will not eat you."
The little mermaid shrank her head, and looked at Ning Changge pitifully with her watery eyes, and said, "You ask about human monks."
I am only in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and this human cultivator exudes the aura of a golden elixir. The sword in his hand feels even more terrifying than the sacred weapon of my clan in my grandmother's hand.
I can’t swim faster than him, and I can’t beat him with a fight. Wow, grandma is right, the human race is so scary!
Ning Changge asked: "What's your name first?"
The little mermaid said timidly: "My name is Mu Xinhai."
Ning Changge smiled softly, "Xinhai, it's a nice name, it suits your identity as a mermaid."
Mu Xinhai waved his tail, "Thank you."
(My grandma said that good people are usually good-looking. This human has such a good smile, so he must be a good person.)
(I hope that after asking me questions, he will not eat me. I am not tasty at all.)
Ning Changge retracted the Yellow Spring Sword into his dantian. It was enough to scare the little mermaid for a while, but if he scared her again, she would probably suffer a psychological trauma.
"Second question, why did you bite off the villagers' fishing rods?"
"Wuwuwu..." It would have been fine if he hadn't asked this. As soon as he asked this, Mu Xinhai started crying like a daughter looking for her father, and started shedding little pearls the size of a bean again.
Ning Changge quickly comforted her, "Don't cry, it's okay. If you have anything to say, tell me slowly."
"It's all the fault of that damn big toad in the river. He caught me and said he would give me to his boss as a concubine." Mu Xinhai said while wiping his tears and choking.
"Big toad?"
Ning Changge was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something, and said uncertainly:
"Is this big toad you're talking about a four-legged golden toad?"
Mu Xinhai nodded, his voice filled with anger, and said:
"It was him, that damned Golden Toad! He locked me up in a dark cell and even set up a formation so that I couldn't go out all day long."
Before Ning Changge could continue asking, Mu Xinhai shrank back and said nervously:
"I didn't even mention it was a golden toad, and it has four legs, so why did you ask me first? Are you the boss he mentioned?"
"Wow... No way!"
As he spoke, Mu Xinhai burst into tears again, "Although you are a very good-looking human monk, my grandma said that you can't get married before your fish tail has grown. I still haven't grown half of my fish tail yet."
"Human monk, please be kind and don't marry me as your young wife. At least wait until I grow up."
"..."
Ning Changge's mouth twitched slightly. He glanced at the little mermaid's ice-blue fish tail. The shiny blue scales were very beautiful, and it looked almost like a snake's tail. He couldn't help but joked in his heart:
"In ancient times, there were heroes from the grass roots, and today, there are fish singing long songs."
Seeing Ning Changge not saying anything and still looking at his fish tail, Mu Xinhai was so scared that he quickly hid the fish tail behind him and cried:
"Wow wow, no, I really can't do that. I'm just a child. Human monk, please don't do this. I'm scared. Grandma said it hurts the first time."
"I don't know if your fish tail has grown well, but you look like a girl."
Ning Changge smiled and said, "As far as I know, mermaids only have gender distinctions after they reach adulthood, Mu Xinhai."
Mu Xinhai was surprised and asked, "How do you know the secrets of our mermaid tribe?"
A poor man whose wife died and whose daughter is missing told me... Ning Changge raised his eyebrows and said:
"you guess."
Mu Xinhai shook his head. "How could I guess that? But human cultivator, I really didn't lie to you. Although I am one or two hundred years old, in the tribe, it will take me a long time to hold my coming-of-age ceremony."
"Okay, okay, I believe you."
Ning Changge waved his hands and chuckled, "And you said I was the boss of the Golden Toad. Just imagine it and it's impossible! If it were true, wouldn't I have spent the first night with you on the first day I caught you? How could I have let you escape?"
Regardless of whether what the little mermaid said was true or not, I am not so perverted as to have sex with a fish, but at least people cannot and should not do that.
Mu Xinhai looked at the expression on Ning Changge's face. Although he was smiling, his smile was very innocent and not fake at all. He did not lie to himself.
And what he said was right. If it were him, he would have... fucked me the night he caught me!
Thinking of this, Mu Xinhai slowly put down the tail hidden behind him and waved it with relief.
Ning Changge continued to ask Mu Xinhai other questions: "By the way, since there is a formation, how did you escape?"
Mu Xinhai's big, moist eyes were filled with confusion as he said:
"I'm not sure either. I stayed in the black cell for two and a half months. Just when I was about to despair and thought I was really going to marry his boss, suddenly one day, the formation was inexplicably broken."
"And that damn big toad wasn't at home, so I sneaked out while the guards weren't paying attention."
"But I knew that I couldn't escape from this river area by myself, because the big toad is the boss here, so I found a river closest to his home and stayed there."
Ning Changge understood her strategy. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.
At this point, Mu Xinhai touched her snow-white but somewhat deflated belly and said, "But staying here all the time is not a solution, because my stomach will thunder, and I can't go to other river areas to find food."
Ning Changge said: "So, you can only eat the bait on the villagers' hooks."
"But I have a question. Although your cultivation level is low, you should be able to go without food for a long time."
The same principle applies to cultivators, commonly known as fasting. After the golden elixir is achieved, it is no problem not to eat food for several months. All they need to do is absorb the spiritual power from the spirit stones.
But the character "仙" has a person on the left, and people have seven emotions and six desires, so they will naturally not give up their desire for food and drink.
Mu Xinhai lowered his head and twisted his fingers, saying embarrassedly: "It's okay to be hungry for a day or two, but you must eat on the third day."
"Then I thought, since I have to eat anyway, why should I starve for a day or two? I might as well eat right from the start."
"..."
Ning Changge naturally couldn't understand the thought process of a foodie when he wanted to eat.
"Cuckoo..."
Suddenly, the little mermaid's belly made a lovely thundering sound.
Mu Xinhai couldn't help but pat Ning Changge's sleeve with his tail, looked at Ning Changge eagerly, and said:
"Kind and handsome human monk, do you have anything to eat?"
