"The main event is coming, quickly take out your mermaid pearl!"
Jiao Ling'er kindly reminded.
Hearing this, Meng Qingyin's scalp almost exploded.
Mermaid Pearl?
Where did she get the mermaid pearl?
She came here to look for the mermaid pearl!
Fortunately, no one noticed Meng Qingyin, and the other mermaids, including Jiao Ling'er, still had their eyes closed.
There was a glow in front of every mermaid - to be precise, it was the mermaid beads in front of them that were glowing.
The mermaid pearl in front of Jiao Ling'er was red, and the faint red light illuminated her face.
The Sacred Square was bathed in a multicolored light, like a rainbow.
Meng Qingyin also noticed that the color of the beads in front of each mermaid was the same as their hair color: Jiao Ling'er's hair was pomegranate red, and the light of her beads was light red; there was a mermaid with emerald green hair, and her beads were light green; and there was also a mermaid with ginger hair, and her beads were light yellow.
This is true without exception.
Seeing this scene, Meng Qingyin was numb.
It was not until this moment that she realized that the mermaid pearl was not a precious gem, but a kind of pearl that came from the body of the mermaid, perhaps similar to pearl?
So, the lost Peacock Blue Shark Pearl...
Her eyes fell on the stone pillar, which was shrouded in a dazzling deep blue light, making it difficult to see clearly.
That's where the leader of the mermaid tribe is.
Perhaps, the mermaid pearl she was looking for belonged to the leader of the mermaid tribe.
The leader of the mermaid tribe should be the god of the mermaid tribe, right?
Could it be that his mermaid pearl was lost, so he asked her to look for it?
Meng Qingyin felt that she was getting closer and closer to the truth.
If possible, perhaps she should find a way to test the mermaid leader's attitude.
Suddenly, she noticed a sharp gaze.
Meng Qingyin glanced over and saw the person behind the mermaid leader. She had long indigo hair and a calm and elegant temperament.
Her eyes were as sharp as torches, staring straight at Meng Qingyin.
Meng Qingyin was shocked.
Oh no, she doesn’t have the mermaid pearl, has she been discovered?
She didn't know what her appearance looked like in the eyes of the mermaids, but judging from the reactions of Jiao Ling'er and other mermaids, at least there were no flaws.
But the lack of the mermaid pearl is enough to become a fatal weakness.
I have to find something to cover it up.
Suddenly, Meng Qingyin thought of something and took out the water beads.
This bead can also glow, and with so many mermaids present, it may be able to conceal it a little.
The soft light of the water beads shone on her face, and she closed her eyes devoutly.
The piercing gaze finally disappeared.
Meng Qingyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You have received the blessings of our ancestors, and the sacrificial ceremony has concluded successfully." Samezawa's voice was emotionless. "Next, everyone, enjoy the carnival."
Along with Samezawa's voice, the sound of fireworks also fell.
Meng Qingyin quietly opened one eye, and colorful fireworks exploded above her head, brilliant and colorful.
But, this is the seabed! How can there be fireworks?
Her hand was pulled, and Jiao Ling'er's cheerful voice rang out, "Yinyin, come and dance!"
Meng Qingyin opened her eyes completely and found that the mermaids around her were dancing in pairs, and the serious atmosphere just now was gone.
Is this the end?
What was that blessing just now?
"Ling'er, you hadn't finished speaking just now..." Meng Qingyin was interrupted before she could finish her question.
"Miss, the leader invites you." A flaxen-haired mermaid bowed and said respectfully.
Meng Qingyin was stunned: "Me?"
Flax-haired mermaid: "Yes, please follow me."
She was just looking for an opportunity to test the mermaid leader's intentions, but she didn't expect the other party to send someone to find her.
Jiao Ling'er let go of Meng Qingyin's hand, winked at her and said, "Since the chief is looking for you, then go quickly. Maybe the chief will invite you to dance. No one has ever danced with the chief before."
Meng Qingyin smiled and left with the flax-haired mermaid.
The flax-haired mermaid brought her to a magnificent palace, which was resplendent and sparkling.
After seeing the face of the mermaid on the throne clearly, Meng Qingyin's heart trembled. It was the mermaid with indigo hair just now!
In the sacrificial ceremony just now, all the mermaids stood under the platform, and only she stood behind the mermaid leader. This shows that her status must be quite high.
Now that they were closer, Meng Qingyin could see a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes, which were the traces of time.
She knew what was going on.
Jiao Ming signaled the flax-haired mermaids to retreat.
Meng Qingyin pretended to be frightened and lowered her head.
Neither of them spoke, and the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"You're quite patient," Jiao Ming suddenly said, his words unclear. "Do you know why I called you here?"
Meng Qingyin thought that she might have been exposed, but she absolutely could not admit it.
"Please give me your instructions, sir."
Jiao Ming walked up to her calmly and asked bluntly, "You are not from my tribe—tell me, who are you?"
Meng Qingyin still refused to give in. "I don't understand what you mean."
Jiao Ming's eyes were sharp. "You don't have the Jiao Pearl. What did you use to deceive the world just now?"
Meng Qingyin sighed in her heart, it was indeed because of the mermaid pearl.
At that time, she thought she could fool him with the water beads, but she didn't expect that this person was not easy to fool.
She could feel the other party's undisguised murderous intent, and she was now on someone else's territory, so the situation was really tricky.
You can't just tell the other person that your son's mermaid pearl may be lost and I am helping your son find it.
Meng Qingyin believed that once she revealed the secret of the mermaid pearl, not only the person in front of her, but even the leader would no longer protect her. After all, the mission clearly stated that the matter of the mermaid pearl could not be revealed.
In other words, the loss of the mermaid pearl is a serious matter and must not be leaked.
As for the chief's mother, she most likely didn't know about this.
Meng Qingyin thought again and again and decided to take a gamble. "Actually, I'm your son's friend."
At this moment, another slightly anxious voice sounded at the door, "Mother, she is my friend!"
Samezawa came hurriedly.
Meng Qingyin made the right bet, so the next thing will be left to the leader, since it was he who issued the task.
Jiao Ming's eyes were gloomy. "Your friend? Could she be a cat-person?"
Samezawa agreed, "Yes."
Jiao Ming's face darkened. "Even if she's from the Cat People, who have always been on good terms with us, you shouldn't have allowed her to participate in our Jiao Clan's sacrificial rituals. That's sheer nonsense!"
Samezawa: "I know I was wrong. I promise there won't be a next time."
Jiao Ming rubbed his brows, his tone a little tired, "Jiao Ze, I'm handing the entire Jiao tribe over to you. I hope you can take on the responsibility and don't let me down."
Samezawa lowered his eyes: "...I understand, mother."
