It was the first time Mingxi heard of a mermaid, so when Huohuang said that the gold piece in his hand was the scale of a mermaid, he couldn't imagine what a mermaid looked like at all.
It was broad daylight when they returned to Wangducheng, and Mioer was leading Zhao Mengmeng to go to the market. When she saw them coming back, she pouted aggrievedly, as if she was abandoned by them.
"Mio'er, come here quickly, I have something to show you." Huohuang carelessly did not notice Mio'er's displeasure, and wanted to show her the scales to confirm whether they were left by the mermaid.
"I want to go out with Mengmeng, I don't have time to talk to you." Mio'er snorted tenderly.
Ming Xi walked up to Mio'er, "Then I'll accompany you guys."
"Didn't you guys have a good time? Why did you come back?" Mioer deliberately didn't look at Mingxi, although she knew what they said was right, Ah Bu was always trembling when seeing her, but they left her in the middle of the night Sneaking away is just not right.
"I'm afraid you'll come back because you're bored by yourself." Ming Xi said with a smile.
Mio'er snorted, "I won't be bored, Mengmeng is with me."
Ming Xi looked down at the little Zhao Mengmeng, the little girl was looking at him in a daze, "Go to the market first, and I'll show you something when I come back."
"What?" Seeing Mingxi's serious tone, Mio'er was immediately aroused by her curiosity.
"It's related to the mermaid." Fire Phoenix whispered.
Mingxi gave him a wink, telling him not to talk too much in front of Zhao Mengmeng.
Mioer immediately forgot that she was still angry, "What? Where did you go and what did you find?"
Although Zhao Mengmeng is still young, it is the age when curiosity is the most vigorous. Mingxi didn't tell Mio'er too much, but just accompanied them to the market, and when Zhao Mengmeng was tired from shopping and fell asleep, he sent it back to Shui Miaomiao. , the three of them returned to the house.
Mioer is almost dying of curiosity. She knows better than anyone else that mermaids cannot exist in the Human World Continent. No, to be precise, there are no mermaids in the Human World Continent. , The whole life of cultivation is just to be able to pass through the Dragon Gate to become a dragonman. Although it is the lowest existence of the dragon clan, the dragonman transformed from a mermaid has to serve the real dragon all his life, no different from the servants of the human continent.
But they're happy with it.
"What did you find? Show me quickly." Mio'er urged.
"This." Mingxi took out a palm-sized scale from his bosom, "Huo'er said it was a mermaid scale, what do you think?"
Mio'er took the piece of gold from Mingxi's hand, and asked in shock, "Where did you find it? The scales have turned golden. This is a very orthodox mermaid, who has lived in the deep sea all his life. She has a very high status in the clan, and she is the only mermaid who is unwilling to jump the dragon gate and become a dragonman."
While talking, she took a nose and sniffed it, "The scales are still very fresh, there is no way there will be mermaid scales in the human world, and you have never been to the gods..."
"Mingxi found this in the lake." Huohuang said.
Mio'er froze for a moment, "You found it in the lake in the Human Continent?"
Mingxi nodded slightly, and told Mio'er all he had seen and heard after entering the lake, "... this scale was found in the lake, and that lake was deeper than the sea, I didn't see the bottom of the lake, only a big black hole. "
"Could there be mermaids in the Human Continent?" Mio'er was surprised, the lake that even Mingxi couldn't see to the bottom should be very deep, and that black hole...she suspected that it didn't belong to the Human Continent.
"You forgot, Ah Bu! Mr. Huangfu saved Ah Bu by the lake." Fire Phoenix said immediately.
"Ah!" Mio'er exclaimed, "I remembered, no wonder I think Ah Bu's aura is very strange, it doesn't look like a person from the human world and doesn't have the aura of a god, it turns out to be a mermaid!"
She had only heard of mermaids before, but had never really come into contact with them.
"So, isn't Ah really a mermaid?" Mingxi said in surprise, "If mermaids only exist in your protoss, then how did she appear in the Human Continent?"
"I don't know either." Mio'er looked at the scales in her hand, "The big black hole you mentioned may be the reason."
Huohuang asked in a low voice, "Is the gap in your protoss... just that big black hole?"
"Where the protoss need a gap in the human world, we can go wherever we want." Mioer said, "I'll find out after going to see it."
"Let's go now." Fire Phoenix said enthusiastically, he really wanted to know what that big black hole was.
Ming Xi shook his head, "We just came back, going out now will make my parents suspect, we will go tomorrow."
"Then what about this?" Fire Phoenix asked, pointing to the scales in Mio'er's hand.
"This was picked up by Ming Xi, and of course it was placed on Ming Xi's body." Mio'er said, "Mermaid scales rarely fall off, not to mention such beautiful scales, which may be of great use in the future. "
Mingxi took the scales that Mio'er handed over, and asked suspiciously, "What's the use?"
"Pharmaceutical alchemy can also become the strongest armor. In short, you put it away carefully, you might need it later." Mioer said with a smile.
Huohuang poked the scales a few times with his fingers, "The scales of mermaids are so useful, so wouldn't the scales of your real dragons be even more powerful?"
"Shut up!" Ming Xi knocked on Huohuang's forehead, and put away the scales by the way.
"Ah!" Mio'er suddenly remembered and screamed, "Mingxi, have you kept my scales away?"
Mingxi was taken aback, and put his hand on the purse at his waist, which he has carried with him since his mother gave him the dragon scale, reminding him that he can't let Mioer do this for him in the future, "Yeah, what's wrong? "
Mio frowned and thought for a while, "You said that big black hole wanted to suck you in, but after they landed, the lake was calm?"
"Yes." Mingxi nodded, "What's wrong?"
"Go and have a look tomorrow." Mio'er said, always feeling that there must be something wrong with that big black hole.
Mingxi said, "I'll go and tell my mother."
Ye Zhen already knew that Mingxi and the others were back, and after waiting for a long time, her son did not come to her. She was complaining to Mo Rongzhan that her son hadn't married a wife yet, and she had already forgotten about his mother. Wouldn't she only think about his wife in the future
Mo Rongzhan smiled and hugged her in his arms.
"Fortunately, my daughter-in-law grew up with her own eyes, and she is almost the same as my daughter." Ye Zhen comforted herself, and even Mioer herself said that she was a child bride, so she shouldn't be able to run away from now on.
"Yaoyao, Mio'er is a real dragon..." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen thought for a while, "Love has no distinction, I am an enlightened elder."
He didn't mean it at all! Mo Rongzhan thought helplessly, but forget it, let's talk about the future.
"Mother, I'm back." Ming Xi's voice finally came in from outside.
