The dungeon was quiet for a moment.
You Xu retreated to the farthest position, leaned his back against the wall, and hugged his knees to look at him.
His neck, hands, and waist were all imprisoned by chains, and an arrow pierced through his tail, making it impossible to attack her from a certain distance.
They looked at each other from the distance, and You Xu found a chance to talk: "Don't get excited, you still have injuries, I'm not the group who hurt you, I've been locked here for five years."
She was so locked that her father forgot that there was a daughter in the dungeon, so he sent someone to lock the merman in too.
Seeing that the wounds on Yu Si's body were still bleeding, he must have suffered a lot before being imprisoned in the dungeon, but those people had no choice but to keep him locked up first.
"And I wanted to help you block the arrow before, but you gave me a tail," You Xu continued, "If you can't block the arrow, I just wanted to help you pull the arrow, but I didn't want to hurt you, but who knew that you would give it to me again. I have a paw."
"If I hadn't flashed so fast, I would have been caught by you."
"You can't avenge your kindness as a fish." You Xu said solemnly.
Maybe it was the tender and crisp voice of the little girl, which made it easy to believe that he slowly put down his defenses, the scarlet in his eyes faded, and the sharp claws were retracted, turning into white, slender, and well-jointed hands.
Maybe he didn't want her to get close, or maybe he felt that the little girl couldn't get his hands on it, so he pulled the arrow by himself, the barbs on the arrow hooked out a lot of flesh and blood, and the sound of tearing muscles was sour. .
After drawing the arrow, he used all his strength, threw the arrow away, then fell back to the ground, slowly closed his eyes, and his chest heaved slightly.
After a while, You Xu asked softly, "Do you want to drink water?"
Although it was her face wash, she didn't say it, who knows, and she wasn't sure how long the merman could stay out of the water. The fish scales on his tail were like dried stones, especially dry and slightly raised.
He didn't move or respond, and You Xu wasn't sure if he was asleep.
After thinking about it, she carried the remaining half bucket of water, approached step by step, and carried a heart, ready to retreat at any time.
But she got close to him, and he didn't move.
The light in the dungeon was not very good. She got closer to see his face clearly. The more she looked, the more beautiful he became. Although he was a monster, he was different from Shen Jue's bewitching beauty.
He has a very clean temperament of beauty, with long eyebrows and bright eyes, a straight nose and thin lips, and every inch of line gives people a feeling of fine craftsmanship.
It should be the kind of art that is treasured.
You Xu put a handful of water in his hand, originally wanting to ask Yu Si to get up and take a sip, but who knew that staring at him for too long, the water leaked from his fingertips and splashed his face.
"..." Mistakes and mistakes, beauty misleads me.
Yu Si's eyelashes moved and he opened his eyes.
You Xu was stunned for a second, his light blue eyes melted into the clear lake water like the blue sky, clear and translucent, and at this moment she was reflected in the beautiful lake...
Dirty face.
You Xu coughed lightly and asked him in a low voice, "Do you want to drink water, there are still half a bucket here."
A moment of silence.
He showed a confused expression, as if he didn't understand why she was giving him water. He clearly hurt her before, although he didn't have time to retract his tail when he flicked his tail, he only had time to pull back.
You Xu pushed the wooden bucket towards him, Yu Si looked at her and determined that she really wanted to give him some water, so he picked up the bucket, took two sips and pushed it back to her.
You Xu saw that he was in a hurry to drink, and knew that he had been thirsty for too long, but he didn't expect that he would not finish his drink at one time and come back with half of it left.
You Xu: Does the face wash smell like face wash, he drank it
She didn't know that Yu Si was thinking that water was not easy to get in the time of his imprisonment, and wanted to keep some for her. She looked at him calmly, and saw that he didn't have a weird expression, so she felt relieved.
Yu Si lay down again and closed his eyes. He remembered that other mermen often said that they should stay away from the human race, because people are greedy and changeable, and they are worse than the sea fox. If they run into the human race, it is easy to suffer a big loss.
He thought to himself, when he recovered and returned to the sea, he must stay far away from the human race.
The thoughts in his mind were interrupted by the cool liquid, Yu Si opened his eyes again, raised his head, and saw the little girl squatting beside his tail, pouring water on his tail again and again.
You Xu really felt that this beautiful big tail was scarred and lifted dry. It was really uncomfortable. Anyway, she was idle, so she tried to get some water on it to see if it would be better.
Fortunately, when the fish scales met the water, just like dead trees in spring, they recovered a little color, and many raised places slowly closed.
Noticing his gaze, You Xu turned his head to look at him, "Do you still want to drink water? If you don't, I'll put some on your tail. Do you feel more comfortable?"
He didn't speak, but You Xu understood the meaning in his eyes and asked her why she didn't drink it herself.
"I've had it," Youxu said. "It was originally a bucket. I used half of it before."
Yu Si didn't say anything, and continued to close his eyes.
And this time, there were no complicated thoughts in his mind, only the little girl's muddy face, those twinkling eyes appeared.
It looks better than the stone crystals in the depths of the sea.
Not all races are bad, he thought.
After a long time, he thought again, could he have her eyes, he really wanted to put them in the shell of his collection.
—
In the evening, the jailer brought food again. Of course, there was no meat, but it was enough for her to eat.
With a new bucket of water, the jailer left with the empty bucket, and he did not forget to tell You Xu, "Remember what you said."
You Xu: "Don't worry, if you can do it, I will definitely not forget it."
After she was full, she saw that Yu Si still hadn't woken up, so she stripped herself naked and rubbed off the sludge on her body with half a bucket of water. The only benefit of this small body is that it saves water, but I don't know if Yu Si is willing to drink it The remaining half bucket of bath water.
The sky quickly became dark, and the visibility of the line of sight dropped sharply. You Xu took the time to get close to him and wake him up: "There is water again, do you still want to drink it? If you don't drink it, I will paint your tail."
His tail is particularly large, and the previous little water was not enough, so he only poured a small side.
Yu Si opened his eyes, shook his head slightly, and then pointed to the wound on his body.
You Xu didn't understand what he meant, was he saying don't get the water on your body, because there are wounds on your body
Yu Si saw her puzzlement, pointed to the wooden barrel, and then pointed to the wound on her body.
Yu Xu interpreted: "You mean pouring water on the wound?"
Isn't that the meaning of putting salt on the wound? Before, she avoided the wound on purpose, but thinking that he might be different as an underwater creature, You Xu first held a handful of water and tentatively dipped it on the small water on his waist. on the wound.
Seeing that he didn't frown in pain, she boldly poured water on his wounds, but there were too many wounds on his body, and the water was simply not enough, so she had to wait until tomorrow.
When she was done, she sat down beside him.
The sky was completely dark, and there was not even the moon, so that You Xu could hardly see in the dark dungeon, but the dark environment did not affect Yu Si's sight.
He saw the bored little girl lying next to him, touched his head with his hand, made a gesture, moved to his tail and gestured, and finally gestured at himself.
Not sure what she was doing, but he didn't interrupt.
In fact, Yu Xu, who was extremely bored, used the sacrifice as a reference to measure his small body, which was about two meters away from the sacrifice, and she was only half of his size.
This is too miserable. The original body is fourteen and a half years old, and it may be more than nine years old and locked in this dark dungeon.
You Xu sighed silently, feeling that Yu Si had no intention of killing her at all, so she spoke up, "I haven't told you yet, my name."
"My name is Youxu, what's your name?" Although she already knew his name, it was more natural to start making friends by exchanging names.
The side was quiet, and it seemed that she was not going to participate in her night tea party.
But she has always been good at saying to herself: "You are a monster, but I am not afraid of you, because everyone says I am a monster."
Yu Si was stunned for a moment, turned his head slightly to look at her, and didn't feel the demonic energy in her at all.
"The national teacher said that I was a demon boy, and everyone believed it, so I was locked here for a long time, so long that I almost forgot what it was like outside, so long that I almost stopped talking to people. ."
In the quiet dungeon, a crisp and tender voice echoed gently.
Even You Xu was taken aback for a moment, except that the first two sentences were just casually said by her, and the latter words unconsciously brought the emotions of this body, the feeling of being stuffed in her heart, which was magnified several times in the dark. .
"Actually... I'm not a monster."
"I won't hurt anyone either."
"Why no one believes me..."
Why, Yu Xu murmured uncontrollably, and the corners of his eyes began to wet.
She always felt a sense of resentment lingering in her heart, as if the original body had not completely left.
The voice fell for a long time, and Yu Si suddenly opened his mouth and said something.
"... ... Um?"
He made a very inhuman voice, not one syllable, but a tone, and she wondered what compiler would be needed to translate it.
However, his timbre is extremely nice, like gurgling water, and like jade beads falling on a plate, so beautiful.
Yu Si repeated this tune again.
"..." It would be amazing if she could understand.
I never imagined that there would be a generation gap due to differences in ethnicity and language. You Xu thought sadly how to do this task.
After a while, he coughed lightly and said, "In the words of your human race, my name is Yu Si."
You Xu reacted and blurted out: "You can speak human language?"
Yu Xu: ...Wait, why is it a bit like cursing.
The good thing was that Si didn't know what it meant, so he just hummed.
You Xuxin said, are you lying to me, the tone just now is so long, it can only be condensed into two words
After the chat received a response, You Xu became excited, faded away the previous sadness, and threw the topic one after another.
But she found that he didn't seem to like using human language very much, so the response he gave was simple and few, but it was enough to satisfy You Xu's desire to interact.
After an unknown amount of time, the noisy voice next to him gradually became quieter, and Yu Si turned his head to the side and saw that she was asleep.
He thought, are all human children so noisy, there seems to be endless things to say, but talking seems to make her happier, she loves to laugh, especially when talking.
He felt that this child was a little strange. She was kept in this dark place for so long, why she still had a bright and bright smile, vivid and vivid, like a rose crucian carp in the water.
Their sharks don't have many expressions, and the young sharks are not very lively. Most of them are independent individuals, and they rarely live together, so there is very little communication.
So he can't handle the little girl's ramble.
Slowly, Yu Si also closed his eyes.
—
The next day, when the door slammed, You Xu woke up when she heard the movement. When she saw the jailer bringing breakfast, she nodded and smiled.
You Xu was a little tangled when she was eating. She was barely full with this amount of food. I wondered if Yu Si wanted to eat it. Does he eat human food
She planned to wait for him to wake up before asking, so she ate the meal first, and just washed her face, when she saw Yu Si wake up, she propped herself up and leaned her back against the wall.
"Do you eat porridge and steamed buns?" You Xu asked.
Seeing Yu Si's confused expression, he obviously didn't know what it was, so You Xu decided to bring food to the jailer at noon, show it to him, and then ask him if he would eat it.
Because a little light came in from the bars, the line of sight was much clearer. You Xu approached him and saw that the wounds on his body were recovering with the naked eye. Compared with the previous situation, it seemed that his physique would recover very quickly if he had water. Without water, I am afraid that the speed of recovery is slower than ordinary people.
No wonder those people put him in a dungeon instead of a pool.
"Creak—" The prison door opened again.
At this time, it can't be food delivery, that is... You Xu saw Yu Si's face sank, and immediately turned his head to look.
I saw a man in a white robe walking into the dungeon. He had high cheekbones, and his eyes were sharp and mean.
Qin Niezhu, here he is.
The author has something to say: You Xu, who was a cat eating small fish in his last life, will eat big fish in this life (.
On those years, the male protagonist's wife-chasing crematorium:
Duan Min: I pinched her neck.
Shen Jue: I bit her neck.
Wenshu: I almost hit her on the forehead with a rock.
Yu Si: I gave her a tail and a paw.
Author: ... .. male lead, so you still want to chase after your wife
