If there are no protective measures, humans are allowed to leave.
And that human happens to be ungrateful and tells the world the existence of mermaids. Then this area of sea will be exposed and discovered by humans, and the mermaids will only be faced with a catastrophic disaster.
Chu Qi understood the mermaid's concerns, so she accepted the rule without hesitation, "I do."
She drank the magic potion of silence in one gulp.
After watching Chu Qi swallow the magic potion, the witch felt relieved and gently touched the little princess's head:
"Dear Salina, you must protect yourself well. If you encounter danger, please escape in time."
The witch placed a small bag around the little princess' neck and said, "You have seen the potions inside. I believe you will know how to use them."
"Well, goodbye, Wu!"
With tears in her eyes, Salina waved goodbye to Wu.
…
The Kingdom of Gold and Jade.
Two months ago, Prince James, who had been traveling at sea, finally returned home.
The king was concerned for his safety and summoned James to the palace that evening.
The king embraced James warmly and said with compassion: "My poor child, are you okay? Where are the servants who protected you? How come you are the only one left with a beautiful maid?"
Beautiful maid, the king said very hard, and a dirty look flashed in his green eyes.
"That's not a maid...it's..."
It's a mermaid.
James tried hard to tell the truth, but found that he couldn't say it.
I didn't expect that the potion the mermaid witch talked about was actually real?
A vicious look flashed across James' face. He couldn't say it out loud, but could I write it down?
Or draw it!
When James thought of this, he calmed down, and he expressed his longing for the king for a while. Then he asked his servants to bring him expensive and luxurious paper and a pen made of pure gold.
Afterwards, the handsome young prince took up his pen to write about his adventure, pointing out Linda's identity as a mermaid, and then ordered the soldiers to capture all the mermaids!
However.
However, James found that he could not write or draw anything. When he tried to express himself through body language, he suddenly felt piercing pain all over his body.
It was as if he was thrown into a frying pan and cut into pieces. The pain made his face turn purple, and he screamed in agony and rolled on the ground wailing in dismay.
The servant was frightened by this scene. Seeing the prince's miserable condition and his miserable appearance, could she still survive?
The servant lowered his head and trembled, wishing that he was not on duty today...
The king was also horrified and approached in panic, "Child, what's wrong with you?"
"Father, I...I'm in so much pain..." The prince's face was covered with tears and snot, and he looked very embarrassed.
"Doctor, call the doctor over!!"
Seeing the seriousness of the situation, the king gave orders loudly.
On the other side, Linda seemed to have sensed something. She looked up at the maid in front of her and said:
"Where's James? Where did he go? I miss him so much."
Why did her heart suddenly hurt?
Did something happen to James?
The maid said respectfully: "Prince James has gone to see His Majesty the King. Please wait patiently."
"Oh." Linda nodded blankly, feeling empty inside.
The doctor arrived quickly and examined James, but found nothing wrong with him. Not to mention any illness, James was as strong as a bull.
"Your Majesty, Prince James is in good health..." the doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and knelt down.
"Very healthy, so why is he in so much pain?"
The king wondered.
Could it be that James was pretending because he didn't want to share the beautiful maid with him?
The king felt that he had found the truth, and he sighed helplessly.
"My dear child, can I still use my power to snatch the maid from you? If you don't want to share with me, just forget it, and don't pretend to be sick..."
The king said, looking very upset at being misunderstood:
"Am I such a terrible father in your eyes?"
By now, the pain in James' body had passed and he was no longer yelling, but he was twitching from time to time.
Hearing the king's words, James' eyes widened and he immediately defended himself:
"No, I'm not pretending. I'm really in pain. I want to tell you...Ah!——"
Prince James, who wanted to tell the truth about the mermaid, felt pain again and had to shut his mouth.
The king was even more distressed and waved his hand: "I didn't expect you to love women more than me. It's really sad. Go down."
James: “…”
Only those who have been wronged know how wronged they are.
James, with tears in his eyes, tried to defend himself, but was carried away by the soldiers.
Back in his palace, James had completely recovered. He tried hard to get rid of the idea of telling the secret, and finally the pain was gone.
When Linda heard that James had come back, she immediately stood up excitedly and wanted to run over and throw herself into her lover's arms.
However, just after taking a step, her legs tripped over her left foot and she fell with a thump onto the carpet covered with luxurious animal fur.
The beautiful and innocent girl raised her head with tears in her eyes and stretched out her hand to her lover: "James..."
James walked over quickly, waved away all the servants, and then helped Linda up, his eyes lingering on her legs for a moment.
Just three days ago, this pair of white and slender legs was a beautiful and dazzling blue fish tail.
"Linda, look at me."
James coaxed in a low voice.
As Linda stared at him intently.
James took out a palm-sized pocket watch, which was covered with ghostly patterns, exuding an ominous aura.
He held the pocket watch in front of Linda, shook it gently, and said slowly:
"My name is Linda, and I love James so much that I am willing to die for him.
"Come on, repeat it after me."
Linda's eyes were blank, and she murmured:
"I'm Linda. I love James very much. I love him so much that I'm willing to die for him."
James saw a red light flashing in Linda's eyes and knew that today's hypnosis was successful. He smiled proudly.
After carefully putting away the pocket watch, he shook Linda to bring her back to her senses and asked her, "Do you have an antidote for the mermaid's magic potion to silence people?"
Hearing this, Linda, whose eyes were full of love, trembled, and then covered her head in pain, "I don't know..."
It hurts, why does it hurt so much?
I love James so much that I am willing to die for him. So what if I can tell you how to research the antidote?
No, this is wrong, I can't tell him, absolutely not...
Two completely different beliefs collided in her mind.
"Woo..." Linda couldn't bear the impact and fainted while sobbing.
"You damn idiot! You didn't even tell me that!"
James angrily dropped the girl and left her lying on the ground.
He paced back and forth in the room like a trapped animal, pulling his hair in venting his anger.
Without the antidote, how could he tell his father the good news that he had found the mermaid?
