[Chapter 296 Mermaid Shedding Scales]
Yang Yiyun was frightened. He was frightened by Xia Lu, but even more frightened by himself. He wondered if the Water of Life was not suitable for Xia Lu.
If this was the case, he would do something bad with good intentions. If Xia Lu got into trouble again, he would have a guilty conscience for the rest of his life.
He didn’t have time to think about it, and hurriedly chased after her.
Xia Lu in front of him turned into a residual shadow and disappeared into the dense forest. Yang Yiyun couldn’t see her figure. He could only chase after her by watching the branches and leaves she passed by. He didn’t know where she was going.
Anyway, he would try his best to chase her.
Along the way, some low bushes were covered with her clothes, and even blood stains, probably because of Xia Lu’s reckless rush. This made Yang Yiyun more worried.
If he had known earlier, he would not have given her the Water of Life.
Now it seems that it not only did not help her, but it caused trouble.
Feeling uneasy, Yang Yiyun ran away.
About ten minutes later, Xia Lu’s trace disappeared completely.
But in front of him, a small river of more than ten meters appeared.
The water seemed clear and green, and only about one meter deep.
Xia Lu’s trace disappeared, which could only mean that she jumped into the river.
She was a dragon fish, originally a water creature, so it was very likely that she jumped into the river.
Yang Yiyun searched along the river. After walking for dozens of meters, he went down the river and found a large whirlpool pool that seemed to be bottomless.
Here Yang Yiyun saw golden scales.
It was obvious that Xia Lu might have entered this deep pool.
After observing on the shore for a few minutes without finding any trace of Xia Lu, Yang Yiyun immediately decided to jump into the water to take a look.
Xia Lu’s condition was very unstable, and he was very worried.
Thinking about the mermaid treating him as her only friend in her life besides the Taoist priest who adopted and saved her, and he was driven crazy by her, Yang Yiyun felt very uneasy.
No matter what, he had to find her.
“Plop~”
Yang Yiyun jumped into the pool.
The water in the pond was cool and bottomless. Yang Yiyun continued to sink to the bottom of the water.
He swam and checked, but he didn’t find anything unusual. Occasionally, some ordinary fish would pass by in the deep water.
He didn’t know how deep the pond was. Anyway, Yang Yiyun couldn’t see it with his current eyesight. He estimated that it should be hundreds of meters.
Looking from above, the diameter of the entire pond was only forty or fifty meters, but after coming down, he found that the deeper he sank, the larger the area of the bottom of the water was. It was at least hundreds of meters, and it was getting bigger and bigger.
Yang Yiyun couldn’t see the figure of the mermaid Xia Lu, but the entire bottom of the water was very large, so he could only swim down to find it.
At a certain moment, Yang Yiyun saw that there were more and more fish at the bottom of the water, which was nothing.
But strangely, Yang Yiyun found that the fish in the deep of the pond were in groups, all swimming in the same direction.
And they were different types of fish, big and small, black and red, and there were many kinds of fish in the speechless 64th, all gathered together and swam in the same direction.
This in itself was very suspicious.
Yang Yiyun’s heart moved, and he understood something, and followed the school of fish.
The unusual movement of the school of fish was not accidental, it could only be said that there was something somewhere in front of the school of fish that attracted the school of fish.
Yang Yiyun thought that this “attraction” was very likely the mermaid – Xia Lu.
Sure enough, after swimming behind the school of fish for more than ten minutes, a group of golden light lit up more than 30 meters away from Yang Yiyun’s sight, dazzling like the sun rising from the bottom of the water, illuminating the entire deep water.
When approaching, Yang Yiyun was filled with shock.
I saw countless schools of fish forming a huge circle, about 30 meters in length, and in the center of the school of fish was the source of the shining golden light.
Because the school of fish automatically swam around the golden light, and because the light was dazzling, Yang Yiyun could not see clearly what was emitting the golden light.
What he saw was a deep shock.
This scene seemed to be thousands of fish making a pilgrimage to the golden light tide.
From a distance, it was indeed a visual shock.
Yang Yiyu didn’t get too close, but stayed more than a meter away to watch.
This time, he was about three meters away from the pond, close to the bottom of the water.
The space here also reached a diameter of several thousand meters. It seemed that the entire pond was like an underwater world, with countless fish.
In front of him, there were still fish coming from all directions to join the large team in the huge sphere of fish. They followed and joined in, forming a larger swimming pattern, wrapping the golden light in the center.
It seemed that thousands of fish were on a pilgrimage, and it seemed that they were protecting the golden light in the center.
Yang Yiyu could guess at this time that maybe… in the center of the huge sphere of fish was the mermaid Xia Lu.
It was just that the golden light was dazzling at this moment, and he couldn’t see the movement of the fish clearly, so he was not sure in his heart.
At this time, it was obvious that there was something wrong between the fish and the golden light, and Yang Yiyu could only wait and see patiently.
Time passed unknowingly for one day… two days… three days… even in the end, Yang Yiyun himself didn’t know how long it had passed.
Fortunately, his cultivation level had improved at this time. After blocking his breathing, he could stay in the water for ten days or eight days without any problem, otherwise he would have drowned. At
a certain moment, the center of the fish school suddenly shone brightly, followed by a sound like a dragon’s roar: “Ao~”
Although it sounded a little low at the bottom of the water, it was very clear.
Yang Yiyun was shocked and looked carefully.
At this time, he saw that the center of the fish school had finally changed.
The bright light that had been continuous suddenly shone brightly, then slowly faded and converged. At
this moment, the fish school also slowed down.
At this time, Yang Yiyun looked through the gap in the slow movement of the fish school and finally saw the true face of the group of golden light.
Yang Yiyun’s eyes widened immediately.
He also confirmed that his guess was correct. In the center of the fish school was a huge goldfish more than one meter long.
When the dazzling golden light faded, the huge goldfish still had a halo on its body.
But it allowed Yang Yiyu to see its true form.
Its body was covered with scales, and it had two whiskers that were more than half a meter long, which were completely dragon whiskers. More importantly, it had a pair of flesh balls growing on its head, which seemed to be somewhat similar to the dragon head seen in anime.
“Is it a dragon fish? Is it the mermaid Xia Lu?”
Yang Yiyu said in his heart.
Staring at the goldfish, Yang Yiyu stared at it intently.
The next moment, Yang Yiyu saw a miracle happen.
“Ao~”
A long whistle came from the mouth of the goldfish, which sounded exactly like the roar of a dragon.
Along with the long whistle of the dragon, Yang Yiyu saw a scene like magic.
In the golden halo, the huge goldfish changed. First, a human face appeared on its head, which was the mermaid Xia Lu.
Then, like a snake shedding its shell, it shed its shell from the neck downwards. To be more precise, it was the mermaid shedding its scales.
In less than ten breaths, a naked mermaid appeared in the center of the fish school and in Yang Yiyun’s sight.
Her eyes were closed, and she looked like a sleeping baby.
But Yang Yiyun felt that his nose was about to bleed.
At this moment, the mermaid Xia Lu, who had transformed, had no scales on her naked body, and her skin was as white as jade. In Yang Yiyun’s eyes, she looked like a natural work of art.
One look would blind him.
He thought he shouldn’t look at her,
but his eyes wouldn’t listen .
He stared at her blankly, and he was crazy.
He had never thought that a mermaid would have such a hot body after taking off her armor.
Countless schools of fish swam happily here, spinning around Xia Lu, and their heads swayed as they swam, looking like they were worshipping Xia Lu.
This moment was truly a scene of thousands of fish making a pilgrimage.
Then the mermaid Xia Lu suddenly opened her eyes, and
she smiled slightly at the school of fish.
This smile almost hooked Yang’s soul away, and his soul left his body.
In history, there is a saying that a beautiful woman can conquer the whole city with a smile, which describes a person’s beauty.
The beauty of the mermaid Xia Lu is really not found in the human world, and even in the heavens, it is probably rare. Her smile made Yang Yiyun’s heart tremble.
Perhaps she felt Yang Yiyun’s presence, Xia Lu waved to the school of fish, and in an instant, the huge school of fish swam away.
While Yang Yiyun dared not look directly at her, the mermaid Xia Lu swam over and showed Yang Yiyun a sunny smile.
“Thank you~” This is what she said after she came to Yang Yiyun again.
Yang Yiyun now understood that the water of life did not harm Xia Lu, but instead made her blood evolve. Her thank you should be this meaning.
Looking at her closely, Yang Yiyun’s heart was beating wildly. In order not to lose his composure, he quickly pointed to the water surface to Xia Lu, meaning that she should go up first. Then Yang Yiyun swam quickly towards the water surface. He really didn’t dare to stay with the transformed Xia Lu, or he might commit a crime.
It’s okay to commit a crime, but the key is that she is a fish!
