Bian Chaoge stayed in the South China Sea for a long time, and there was no other reason. It was because Zhou Jue, the heart and soul, had not seen the sun for half a year, and when he was on his way, his face turned pale and his heart was about to burst.

His own Xizi is lazy to hold his heart on the beauty's couch every day, even if he can't wait to urge him, because the sky and the earth are not as big as his wife.

So he could only write a letter to explain the situation to his father and master - as a result, Xiao Qing's letter was returned because the unlucky Eagle didn't find Xiao Qing, so he wandered around in confusion for two days and flew back by himself - the letter was bounced!

Fortunately, Bianxian's letter finally arrived successfully.

Just three days after writing the letter to Dijing, Bian Chaoge received a reply from Bian Xian, saying that he had written to the Holy One that Bian Chaoge had found shark tears in the South China Sea. The princess will marry the eldest son of the Zhou family, Zhou Min, immediately—even if the eldest princess refuses, but she has boasted to Haikou back then. There is no mistake in getting married immediately in one day!

Now next week, even if Daiyu is still alive, Zhou Jue has to hold on to return to the imperial capital, otherwise even if the emperor can wait, his eldest brother who has been looking forward to becoming a concubine for almost 30 years will not be able to wait.

On their way back to the imperial capital at a constant speed, Bian Chaoge once again received an instruction from his father and Xiao Qing's co-signed Feige to ask Bian Chaoge and all his cronies to return first with the tears of the sharks. The troops surrounded the second young master of the Zhou family, who was like a concubine, and rushed back slowly.

All of this is because the Great Master is going to die soon...

Bian Chaoge is naturally a hundred unhappy - it has only been two days since we met, because Zhou Jue is not in good health, and the two have not even had a chance to make out, and they have to part again. It is really sad to hear the resentment Anyone who sees them - thinks they are disgusting.

"Go quickly, don't go to the imperial capital to change the dynasty, I can't afford to be a sinner through the ages."

Zhou Jue was lying in the carriage covered with ten layers of brocade quilts, holding a small heater lit by Long Yanxiang in his hand, his eyes seemed to have spring water, and every word he uttered was full of love and nostalgia for Bian Chaoge.

Bian Chaoge naturally did the same, that's why he was heartbroken.

"Last time I was just careless, and I lost you in the end... I swore that after I found you this time, I would never leave you half a step in this life."

Zhou Jue chuckled, scolded Bian Chaoge for "dead virtue", then got up to help him pack his luggage for the journey, and then pretended to be casual and asked Chen Fang how he was...

Bian Chaoge stopped what he was doing and remained silent for a while, without any emotion in his voice.

"Chen Fang is gone."

Zhou Jue was taken aback for a moment, but he made up his mind and didn't ask any more questions.

Half a day later, Bian Chaoge left Zhou Jue and set off alone, carrying the mermaid tears that were full of sins and the blood and tears of countless people in his arms, surrounded by all the guards, and set foot on the road back to Beijing in the dark ...

Inside the Crab Tribe

Wan Chengsi originally took Qiao Niang to the Turtle Clan, but because sneaky people often came back and forth to investigate, he followed the advice and came to the base camp of the Crab Clan.

The Crab Clan is considered to be the most populous race in the South China Sea, because regardless of hermit crabs or crabs, the Crab Clan never refuses any "crabs", so they prosper and thrive.

Therefore, the power of the Crab Clan is very large. Wan Chengsi also reserved an air chamber for human survival with several major races many years ago, and used his status as a businessman to perform his duties to provide several major races with Convenience is for today's unexpected needs.

When Qiao Niang woke up, she was already in the air chamber carefully prepared for her by the Crab Clan, and she didn't know anything about what happened.

"My lord...what the hell is going on?"

The Wan Chengsi that Qiaoniang saw at this time was already him after wandering around for a day, and at this time he had met Wan Chengkun.

After thinking about it, Wan Chengsi decided to tell Qiao Niang the truth.

"Qiaoniang, listen to me," Wan Chengsi took Qiaoniang to the table, then let her sit down, and quietly brewed a pot of tea for her, "The mermaid tribe in the South China Sea... is gone."

As expected, Qiao Niang was not calm, she stood up suddenly again.

"What!" She covered her mouth with her right hand, because she just woke up slowly, and she was dizzy for a while when she got up suddenly, and she tried her best not to fall down by supporting the table with her left hand, "No, no more?...Then, Ah Where is Jing? How is Ah Jing? Where is he?"

Wan Chengsi felt bitter for a while, if he guessed correctly, Wan Chengjing at this moment...

"I have already asked the little patriarch, he is leading the surviving more than [-] people to find a new home... He said that Ah Jing followed them to pick pearls at first, so when the Donghai tribe came, they were not in the tribe, so at that time I'm fine," Wan Chengsi said carefully, seeing Qiao Niang heaved a sigh of relief instantly, and couldn't help breathing in front of her chest, hesitating what to say next, "However, they met two soldiers from the East China Sea on the way. , so Ah Jing separated from the main force in order to distract them, and now the situation is unknown..."

Qiao Niang covered her mouth again with an "ah", and her eyes were red in an instant.

"This silly boy... this silly boy!"

Wan Chengsi looked at Qiao Niang who was crying bitterly at the desk, and was confused for a while.

"You... don't cry, Ah Jing may be fine, so don't worry!"

He never married a wife in his life, and once reached the point where Wan Qilin would "run away" and slip away as soon as Wan Qilin urged him.

The so-called "Shang Dun" is a vocabulary created by the mermaid tribe in the South China Sea for Master Wanqisi, which means to avoid the patriarch's urging marriage on the grounds of doing business.

But at this moment, Wan Qilin is gone, and the person I have loved all my life is right in front of me...

"A Jing once told me that if there is a chance, I will take you to land to see..."

Qiao Niang raised her face after hearing his words.

"it is good……"

Wan Chengsi never expected Qiao Niang to answer so simply, and he felt ecstasy in his heart - but he immediately realized from the hopeless calm on Qiao Niang's face that she knew that Wan Cheng Jing would never come back.

"Then we..."

Qiao Niang wiped away the tears.

"I'll wait for Ah Jing for three months... If he doesn't come to see me for three months, I'll go to land to see the world again."

Wan Qisi feels sorry.

……

Three months later.

Wan Chengsi came to the land with her gray-haired Qiao Niang.

As expected, Wan Chengjing did not come back.

It took him a month to ask someone to build a small house a few miles away from the shore. Although it was small, it had all internal organs and was cozy enough.

Wan Chengsi placed Qiaoniang here, and he himself returned to the water most of the time, in order not to make Qiaoniang feel inconvenient, but occasionally he would rest in the side room here.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, at first Qiaoniang would ask if Wan Qijing had come back, but when the weather got colder and the sky started to snow, Qiaoniang finally stopped asking, and every time she saw Wan Qijing coming, she would be superficial. Smile, and then prepare a table of wine and food for him.

"Master Si, you travel all the year round, but these legs are more diligent than fish tails..."

Wan Chengsi smiled and looked under the table at his legs.

"I ate too much split-limb grass. There was a time when I couldn't feel my lower body. It was numb and painful day and night... But in the end, I was so attached to this vast world that I couldn't bear it. Now I can't even change back after drinking—I guess I won't be able to change back to a fishtail after a while..."

Qiao Niang nodded, and continued to sit gently at the table, holding the silk cloth in her hand, embroidering something silently.

The two of them gathered around the table of wine and food under the eaves of the snowy thatched roof, and the wine was warmed in the small red clay stove beside it. slip away.

"I've been underwater for most of my life," Qiao Niang skillfully moved the embroidery needle in and out of the cloth, and soon a child with a human face, a human body and a fishtail appeared on it, looking at those emerald green eyes, it should be Wan Cheng mirrored the truth, "Now that I'm on land, I really don't know what to do... Sometimes I think, instead of doing this, it's better to go back to the water."

Wan Chengsi laughed.

"The world is so big, you can do whatever you want, just live your life as you like," he finished speaking, peeking at Qiaoniang, and found that the latter was still focusing on the embroidery pattern in his hand, so he sighed in his heart and said to himself Go on, "If you feel better, I will take you to the market, there are many good things there...or to the great mountains and rivers, even the street market..."

Qiao Niang listened silently, listening to the anecdotes and anecdotes that Wan Chengsi had encountered in traveling all over the years, as well as the local customs, quietly listening to him talk about another world that she never had the opportunity to set foot in this life.

So she just listened silently, as always, with a calm smile on her face—the smile that made Wan Chengsi drunk all her life with just one glance.

"Master Si, I know, you treat me well."

Wan Chengsi was talking loudly, but he didn't realize it for a moment——when he knew what Qiaoniang was talking about, his eyes turned red subconsciously.

"you……"

Qiao Niang still smiled gently, and kept her hands, and after a while, a fat little mermaid was born alive under her hands.

"One farewell for thirty years... In a blink of an eye, I am an old woman in her sixtieth year," Qiao Niang's voice was so soft that if you didn't listen carefully, you would think it was the wind, "Master Si has loved you so much all his life, I can't repay Qiao Niang ...I only wish that the next life will be safe and smooth."

Hearing this, Wan Chengsi slammed a drop of tear on the table, instantly melted into beads, and fell to the ground...

"Blame me for my attachment, blame me for my greed and hatred... I only hope that in the next life, I will be born with these legs without taking this cramped and broken limb grass every day." Then I can meet you, and then guard you and protect you.

His whole life was nothing more than the word "crazy".

Qiaoniang finally finished drawing the last stitch, put away the thread carefully, and looked carefully at the oil lamp on the porch.

"Master Si, help me to see, this picture is flawed," she took off the silk cloth from the support in her hand, and handed it to Wan Chengsi, "When I get old, I often can't see that the stitches are neat... "

Wan Chengsi looked at it carefully, and then gently brushed the little shark with his hand.

"Very good, very good..." he murmured.

When Qiao Niang heard these two "very good", she suddenly showed a bright smile that she had never seen before.

She raised her face to look at the bright moon, she hadn't seen the sun all year round, so there was no trace of wrinkle on her extraordinarily fair face, her silver hair shone brightly under the moonlight, and she suddenly looked as dazzling as that young girl of 40 years old—— Just like [-] years ago...

Wan Chengsi was crazy about it.

"Master Si must have spent a lot of money to build this room. I don't feel cold sitting like this. I'm afraid the ground around this room has already been paved with underground passages and buried charcoal fire..."

Wan Tengsi was taken aback for a moment, and then thought that Qiaoniang had always been smart about ice and snow, seeing that it was snowing so much, but the snow around the house melted, so she could guess it naturally.

"Master Si, he is really a very careful person, but no one has this blessing to enjoy..."

"I'm afraid that after a while, Lord Si won't have to waste like this..."

Wan Chengsi looked at Qiao Niang, but the latter still had a girlish brow and eyes shining...

Half a month later, Qiao Niang was gone.

……

After Wan Chengsi finished taking care of Qiaoniang's funeral, he sent someone to bulldoze the hut.

He once thought that he would spend the rest of his life here after Qiaoniang left, but he was different from Wan Chengjing after all—he couldn't bear the memories of Qiaoniang in this room.

Wan Chengsi, holding Qiaoniang's ashes, sat on the reef by the sea and thought quietly while blowing the sea breeze.

He seemed to understand Wan Chengjing's mood in an instant.

I don't know what Wan Chengjing thinks about Zhou Jue and himself in the past six months...

After all, Wan Chengsi silently guarded Qiao Niang for 60 years.

For some people, love is getting along day and night - but for Wan Chengsi, silently guarding on the side is not a way of love, there is actually no difference between the two.

He suddenly began to sympathize with Wan Chengjing.

He remembered that the Crab Clan, who was blind in one eye but managed to save his life, had a drink with him two months ago.

Because Jiaoniang has already adapted to life underwater, she hastily came to the water, many of her body will suffer from strange diseases, and she will die soon instead.

Wan Chengsi was very regretful, so he wanted to take Qiao Niang back to the water, but Xie Zu told him that it was useless.

The family rules passed down by the mermaids for thousands of years prevent Jiaoniang from returning to the shore. On the one hand, it is for the safety of the mermaids, and on the other hand, it is also because the human body cannot bear it.

Wan Chengsi regretted it too late, but Xiezu felt that it might not be the case.

"She is already in her sixtieth year, and she is definitely considered a long-lived person among human beings. She didn't know when she would return to the west. She spent her whole life underwater. If she could spend a few years of life in exchange for returning to land, it would be worth it, it would be worth it. "

While talking, Xiezu pointed to his blind eyes, life and eyes, so life is of course important.

But what about life and freedom?

Everyone has his own answer in his heart.

Wan Chengsi suddenly became cheerful, and his whole person became free and easy.

So according to Qiaoniang's last wish, he sprinkled the ashes on this sea, her eternal hometown...

After finishing this, Wan Chengsi took out the handkerchief from his bosom...

——On it is a cute, chubby little shark.

Two teardrops fell quickly, and when they landed on the handkerchief, they were already two crystal clear shark beads.
