Chapter 515: Carnivorous Mermaid vs. Sickly Merchant (7)

"The water really needs to be changed."

Li Shiyu was talking pretentiously, and before his hand touched the little mermaid's shoulder, he suddenly saw a dazzling golden light accompanied by splashes of water.

Bang——!

The fish's tail hit Li Shiyu hard, knocking him to the ground.

Seeing that Li Shiyu's right cheek was instantly red and swollen after being hit by the tail fin, Lu Cha expressed his satisfaction.

Two dogs, one on the left and one on the right, what a perfect match~

"Damn it, you dare to attack me?!"

Li Shiyu, who was helped up by the servant, cursed and wanted to teach Lucha a lesson, but when he saw the raised fish tail, he took a step back in fear:

"Quick! Turn off the water tank!"

The servants hurriedly closed the water tank lid and locked it again.

Li Shiyu finally relaxed after making sure that the little mermaid could no longer swing her tail. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt.

He finally got a mermaid, but not only could he look at her but not eat her, the mermaid actually hit him!

But he couldn't bear to kill him.

At this time, a servant walked up to Li Shiyu and handed him an ice pack. "Mr. Li, I once heard Miss An talk about the method of taming mermaids."

"The mermaid is arrogant and has a strong sense of self-esteem. She will only obey if she is beaten in public, humiliated, and tortured like a toy."

"You're hosting a banquet, so you can execute the mermaid there and show off your power in front of your friends."

Li Shiyu felt that the servant had a point and said with a sinister look, "Order someone to prepare the torture instruments now."

"As for this mermaid, lock her up in a random room."

Because the water tank was made of glass and was easily bumped, the servants locked Lu Cha in one of the guest rooms on the first floor.

Little did they know that as soon as they locked the door and left, the little mermaid pushed open the lid of the water tank to come out for some fresh air.

After Lu Cha transformed his legs, he took a warm bath and lay comfortably on the soft big bed.

[Tongtong, please send a message to the little heroine and tell her that I am safe now.]

"?" The system's brain was confused for a moment: [Why don't you contact her yourself?]

【I don’t have a cell phone.】

The system fell silent.

It forgot that the host was an illegal resident in the human world and had nothing.

The system sent a message to Yin Shutong using a virtual number and reminded:

[Because you were picked up by Li Shiyu earlier than planned, the plot has deviated, so the hero and heroine will not meet for the time being.]

What this means is that Lu Cha will not be able to see Yin Shutong in the near future.

Lu Cha couldn't laugh anymore.

She only met the little heroine once!

It seems that I still need to find a way to get a mobile phone so that I can contact the little heroine at any time.

To prevent the servants from discovering her legs, Lu Cha lay on the bed for a while and then returned to the water tank to lie down.

Although Li Shiyu was angry that the mermaid attacked him, he was more worried that the mermaid would be killed by him before the banquet even started. He would then make a fool of himself in front of his friends. So he did not let the servants withhold Lu Cha's food, but instead provided her with delicious food and drink.

Lu Cha took the opportunity to practice speaking. He was a quick learner and after a few days of practice, he was able to communicate with humans almost normally.

In a blink of an eye, it’s the weekend.

As soon as it got dark, Lu Cha was moved by the servants to the newly built pool on the first floor of the villa.

There is a stone pillar standing in the center of the pool.

Several servants tied Lu Cha to the stone pillar with iron chains, while another group of servants brought an iron frame made according to the size of the pool and surrounded the pool.

When Lu Cha saw the servants covering the shelves with pieces of black cloth, he felt subdued.

What?

Is this a dust cover for her?

This dog is quite thoughtful!

Not long after, intermittent conversations came through the black cloth. The guests invited by Li Shiyu had arrived.

Lu Cha looked outside through the gap between the black cloth.

In order to prevent the fact that they were viewing the mermaid from being exposed and accidentally photographed, which would bring them trouble, people who came to the banquet all wore different masks to cover the upper half of their faces.

Suddenly, a hand that looked as exquisite and perfect as a work of art caught Lu Cha's attention.

The man picked up the wine glass on the table. He was wearing a black mask, revealing his thin lips that were slightly pursed.

The profile of his face reflected in the light has clear and handsome features.

Lu Cha recognized the other person as Yu Chen and was very curious.

How does the little villain plan to save this poor mermaid?

-

As the sky got darker, the guests still hadn't seen the mermaid they had been longing for, so they couldn't help but question Li Shiyu:

"Didn't you say you bought a rare golden mermaid? Why haven't you shown it to us yet? Are you lying to us?"

"They put such a big black cover in the living room and didn't allow us to get close. I doubt there's a mermaid inside."

"Do you have a mermaid? If not, I'm leaving and don't waste everyone's time."

Li Shiyu was anxious: "I'm just waiting for everyone to arrive!"

Li Shiyu quickly gave the servant a look.

The latter understood and turned off all the lights in the living room, leaving only a spotlight in the center.

Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Li Shiyu pulled away the black cloth covering the iron frame.

The little mermaid tied to a stone pillar had her eyes slightly closed, and her long golden hair fell in front of her like a waterfall.

The little face, as big as a palm, is pretty and charming, shrouded in a hazy halo, like an angel fallen into the world.

The golden fish tail appears and disappears in the water, flashing brilliant and dreamy colors, so beautiful that it seems unreal.

Everyone admired the mermaid's beauty in amazement.

They had all seen mermaids to some extent, but had never seen a golden-tailed mermaid, like the warm and dazzling sun.

Only Yu Chen, who was standing at the back, glanced at the watch on his wrist and calculated the time.

His people are coming soon.

And ahead.

Taking in everyone's reactions, Li Shiyu raised his head proudly:

"Mermaid meat is delicious and a rare delicacy. The best way to eat it is raw. But before the banquet begins, I have prepared a little show for everyone."

"It is said that mermaids' songs are beautiful and have the magical power to soothe people's hearts, but none of us have ever heard the mermaid sing when she cries."

Li Shiyu took the long whip with hooks handed to him by the servant and looked at the ignorant little mermaid:

"I know you can understand what I'm saying."

"From now on, I won't stop whipping you, and you won't be allowed to stop singing."

Li Shiyu swung the whip hard at Lu Cha, but did not notice that a faint silver light flashed in front of the little mermaid.

Lu Cha, who had long ago obtained magical powers from the system, set up a barrier to block Li Shiyu's falling whip, but without careful observation, no one could see the truth.

The long whip that seemed to be hitting her actually didn't even touch her hair.

Lu Cha whimpered in pain, seriously acting like a poor abused child.

Don't let her down, little villain~

Seeing that the little mermaid was only wailing and not singing, and especially that there were no bloody wounds on her body, Li Shiyu thought it was a problem with the whip and reached out to touch it.

The fingertips were immediately pierced by the barbed thorns, and bright red blood flowed out.

Li Shiyu gasped in pain, wondering why the whip on the little mermaid was fine, and why the people around him were still talking about it:

"This mermaid won't listen to you at all, what's the point of the performance? Let's start the feast!"

"I told you Li Shiyu is a wimp. He usually acts like a grandson in front of Miss An, but now he can't even handle a little mermaid."

These people all knew that Li Shiyu had married into the wife's family, and they looked down on his behavior of living off his wife from the bottom of their hearts.

If it weren't for Miss An's sake, who would be friends with a pretty boy?

Li Shiyu's face flushed red as he was scolded by everyone. He threw away his whip in frustration and said, "Give me the knife!"

"I don't believe that even if I cut off her fish tail, she still wouldn't obey!"

As soon as Li Shiyu finished his last word, the lights above suddenly went out and the living room fell into darkness.

Then the door was kicked open and a group of masked men rushed in.

"The mermaid is there! Take her away!"

Realizing that the people were coming to steal the mermaid, Li Shiyu shouted in panic: "Go get weapons and stop them!"

An Wenqing said that this mermaid must be killed and must not fall into the hands of others!

Bang--!

Gunshots rang out suddenly.

“Someone died!”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in chaos. Some ran for their lives, some hid, and they completely ignored the mermaid in the pond.

In addition, the room was dark, and no one noticed a masked man approaching the pool in the center.

The weak little mermaid became nervous instantly, but then she heard a low, sweet voice:

"Don't be afraid, it's me."
