Chapter 69 The Girl in the Painting Reader
"Mermaid couple? But aren't there no mermaids in this world anymore?"
Yu Mian couldn't believe what Delanqi said.
After all, the little system had told her that she was the only mermaid.
The next second, Granny Delanqi smiled mysteriously.
"Of course not many people know this secret, and I won't tell ordinary people."
But Delanqi glanced at the well-fed little Mi in her arms, and then looked at Yu Mian hesitantly.
"But since you have taken good care of Xiao Mi for me for a while, I can tell you this secret. Don't you realize that you have some magical abilities?"
"......?"
Hearing this, Yu Mian immediately looked nervously at the computer that had been turned off. Could it be that this mysterious old lady even knew about his typing?
"Your singing has the effect of healing mental strength. Don't you know?"
Grandma Delanqi looked at Yu Mian, who was confused and nervous, in surprise. She didn't expect that this young mermaid seemed to be unaware of it.
"Uh... this, my singing is a bit bad."
Grandma Delanqi turned out to be referring to the singing, which made Yu Mian breathe a sigh of relief.
"How could that be? Mermaids can sing beautifully..."
Delanchi asked Yu Mian to sing a paragraph out of disbelief. After the song, the two fell into a subtle silence.
"This is so strange. Did your parents never teach you?!"
"But what exactly are the mermaid couple you are talking about?"
Facing Delanchi's puzzlement, Yu Mian asked again.
"Actually, it's nothing. Many years ago, the special races near the ocean galaxy that starts with the code E knew that a pair of mermaid couples often appeared in the sea, and they would enthusiastically help everyone sort out the disordered spiritual power..."
Delanchi recalled the experience when he was young.
In a sense, the ethereal singing that he heard on the sea on that full moon night was almost a lifelong unforgettable and wonderful experience.
However, this secret has always been circulated in secret among the interstellar tribes with special racial bloodlines, and has never been revealed to any human.
"Why can't it be told to pure humans?"
Yu Mian inexplicably felt that he had asked the same question as Daxi asked Graydo in "The King of Tianshan".
"Because to some extent, we are wary of pure humans without special blood. Just like hundreds of years ago, the descendants of beastmen once faced all kinds of gazes in the interstellar, and had to hide their beastly characteristics from each other." "
People always regard them as descendants of interstellar beasts, rather than equal humans. Of course, now the law has clearly prohibited this behavior, and this trend has almost disappeared, but many special races still habitually hide their identities."
Granny Delangi said seriously, and the next second she stretched out her palm, densely covered with strong and fierce black dragon scales.
Yu Mian:!
This is the first time that Yu Mian has seen a special race in the interstellar show its characteristics in front of him. It really looks like it has a "non-human" aura.
What a cool feeling.
Don’t you know that there are humans with big cat blood? If so, wouldn’t it be possible to stretch out a claw and it would become a heavy plum blossom claw?
In the interstellar age, don’t you know how cute beast ears and tails are! ?
“But what about the mermaid couple?”
Yu Mian found that the nagging Grandma Delanqi had gone off topic again, and changed the subject again.
“Ahem, well, I haven’t seen them for many years. They seem to have gone to another place, but maybe you can go to that galaxy to see if you can find any clues?”
Delanqi also found that Yu Mian was staring at him, and he couldn’t help but talk endlessly about all the things he had in his stomach.
Could it be that he was born to like this kind of shiny fish tail? Or is it that he is born to be unable to reject mermaids?
"But you do look very friendly. Mermaids are a beautiful race. It's a pity that you didn't learn to sing and inherit this race's ability."
Delanqi sighed and gave Yu Mian a set of electronic coordinates as a parting gift.
Yu Mian was thoughtful after receiving the coordinates.
"But since you know mermaids, do you know why the scales fall off? Or what happens after the growth period of scales ends?"
Seeing that Delanqi seemed to be planning to leave in a hurry with Xiao Mi in his arms, Yu Mian asked seriously.
"Ah, you little guy, you really don't know anything?"
"For our scaly species, after the growth period of scales ends, it is of course the courtship period."
"But there is actually only one most important thing to pay attention to."
Granny Delangi said seriously.
"One what?"
"Hunting a strong enough mate! Not like me, an old man, alas, my mate left early..."
Yu Mian looked at his fish tail and fell into a mysterious contemplation for a while.
It would be better to let the scales fall for a while.
And Granny Delangi really looks like a person with a story, but her mate is gone?
"Swish~Swish!"
But just as Yu Mian leaned on the windowsill and watched Granny Delangi leave in a hurry, an anxious cry came from beside him.
?
It was a bunch of forgotten white dandelions, crying so hard that the fur around them was wet.
Granny Delanchi was so happy to find Xiao Mi again, but it seemed that she forgot about the little guy again because of her complicated thoughts.
"But I didn't leave Granny Delanchi's contact information?"
Yu Mian picked up the crying plush dandelion and realized that it was probably forgotten by Granny Delanchi. Granny Delanchi is really a pet lover.
Speaking of which, the reason why Xiao Mi got lost was not because Granny Delanchi forgot it somewhere, right?
"Maybe I can only wait until Granny Delangi remembers and comes to take you away next time."
It just so happened that I really wanted to talk more with Granny Delangi about that sea area. I felt that she knew a lot of interstellar secrets.
Yu Mian took a tissue and wiped the boy's tears.
He didn't cry anymore, but stuck closely behind Yu Mian.
However, Yu Mian was indeed curious about the two groups of people in the interstellar space, the so-called star beasts and the races of orc blood.
After inquiring, I found that, like the Bart tribe, many descendants of orc blood also have their own specific active star systems, although there are also many descendants of this race living on the Federation Star.
But most of them are very low-key.
Will there be readers of "Star Beast World" among them?
Even read the "King of Tianshan" written by himself?
In fact, after this issue of "Star Beast World" became popular on the Star Network, it triggered a sensational discussion among readers in a short period of time.
Although many readers' first reaction after reading it was to regret the separation of Daxi and Gredo, a considerable number of readers believed that the current ending was definitely the most perfect ending.
Among this group of readers, the most powerful group turned out to be the descendants of many orcs who used to live low-key on the Federation Star.
This sounds a bit too unexpected, but this is indeed what happened.
As a minority group that is easily overlooked on the Federation Star, these descendants with orc blood usually just work in a low-key manner and do not attract much attention.
But after reading the article "The King of Tianshan - Snow Leopard", they undoubtedly had a more complex and moving reading experience than ordinary interstellar readers. They
even felt that this work should be transmitted back to their respective star systems so that their companions in their hometowns can also feel this indescribable emotion.
For this reason, some people rarely spoke out on the Star Network.
[As a descendant of orcs, I usually don't like others to know my bloodline, but this time I really have to speak out.
Gredo is a truly fearless hero in my mind. His wildness and the kingly aura walking on the snowfield are definitely the style we admire most!
Although I also like Daxi very much and think this little guy is so cute, I still insist that Gredo can only be the king we admire if he stays on the Tianshan snowfield.
Mr. Yutangmian's article respects our habits and talents very much, so if someone is still dissatisfied, I just want to say that you'd better ask my fist first if it agrees or not!
[Picture] [Picture] [Picture]】
This big brother of orc descent seems to be very dissatisfied with those readers on StarNet who feel that the ending is regrettable, and is ready to fight online to maintain the perfect ending in his mind.
He also posted a photo of himself with beastman features, a pair of strong furry beast claws, and even a beast tail dragging on the ground behind him.
Not surprisingly, this reader feedback did quickly trigger a huge amount of heat, which was not inferior to the previous small reader letter in "Star Beast World".
However, the content and direction of the heat were a bit unexpected.
[You, you actually have a tail——! ? ]
Facing the exclamations of the Star Network netizens who swarmed in, this beastman brother was obviously very alert and impatient:
[Yes, I do have it, what do you want! ? ]
[Help, I really want to bury my head in it and take a deep breath——Is our Graydo's big tail also so beautiful! ? ]
[Me too... Let me go first! ]
[??? 】
The beast brother, who was originally very vigilant, felt like he had hit cotton with a punch after seeing these latest replies that kept coming out. He was so confused that he wanted to retreat and call the police.
What a disgrace!
What is the latest conspiracy of the interstellar humans?
After all, after the release of "The King of Tianshan - Snow Leopard", it did trigger everyone in the interstellar to pursue and like furry tails.
The most impressive part of the article, in addition to the final separation of Daxi and Gredo, is definitely the interactive scenes of the two snow leopards with cute tails.
Whether it is Gredo using his tail to block the wind and snow for Daxi, or Daxi occasionally dozing off on Gredo's tail subconsciously, or Daxi holding his tail and playing with Gredo.
Each one is more lively and adorable than the other, and one can't wait to get into the book and hug these furry tails and take a deep breath.
[And I just found out that we humans also had tails in the past, why don't we have them now? ]
[Yes, I think tails are also very cool, and they can be decorated, or they can be fashion items on the tail, which is really interesting. ]
However, when netizens were discussing tails enthusiastically, netizens with a biology background appeared and poured cold water on them.
[Although I know that everyone has developed an incomparable love for Gredo and Daxi's snow leopard tails after reading "The King of Tianshan", calm down a little. If we humans still have tails, they will most likely be bald tails like mice. ]
As soon as this message came out, the originally heated discussion among readers fell into silence.
[…What!? (Slowly steps back with a stiff politeness.jpg]
[Sorry, we are not worthy orz I should go find some furry beastman friends around me to suck on.]
[Although, this tail doesn’t seem to be necessary. Of course, I absolutely do not mean to discriminate against mice, long live the equality of species! Even the cockroaches in the insect family…]
While everyone was discussing it heatedly, Yu Mian, who was contacted by the “Star Beast World” magazine, also formally responded to the letter from the young reader.
He said that his stories never mind people having their own new creations and new ideas. And about the ending, it is the most perfect ending that Greydo and Daxi should have, and it is also what this story wants to express. Some themes.
If it is said that when the article "The King of Tianshan" was first published, some readers were reluctant to separate the two snow leopards because of the temporary regret for the ending.
But now, after slowly thinking about it, the latter voice has gradually occupied the vast majority of readers. After all, the
reason why Graydo has become the white moonlight in everyone's mind, and even the most admired King of Tianshan, is because he has always stayed in this absolute domain of his, growing freely on this snowy cliff.
Once Gredo leaves the snowfield, will he still be the high-spirited Gredo in everyone's mind?
This encounter with Daxi may just give everyone the opportunity to get close to this lonely king of Tianshan and learn about such a wonderful and slightly depressing story of nature. Even
after a long time, it seems that you can still see the figure running freely and a cub following behind him.
[So what is Mr. Yutangmian going to write about in his next special topic? Oh, now I really want to see the next furry article. I never thought that a popular science story could be so interesting before...]
[I can only say that you really hired the right person in "Star Beast World"! I never thought that Mr. Yutangmian's focus this time would be a popular science short story. 】
【And even if it is a story that the young readers enjoy reading, we all enjoy reading it too. We really want to see Daxi and Gredo again. Will the next story be about them? 】
Yu Mian looked at the readers' feedback on the Internet and was actually a little hesitant.
In that case, this series can indeed be written in a quick-travel mode.
The theme of each unit story can naturally be very different.
But as a popular science magazine, the huge success of "Star Beast World" has undoubtedly caused an earthquake in the interstellar magazine industry.
You must know that the decline of paper media is not an isolated case. Although it has never completely disappeared because of its special effects, the popularity has indeed been dormant for a long time.
Now, "Star Beast World", a highly trafficked commissioned article case, has instantly allowed countless practitioners in the interstellar magazine industry to discover new opportunities.
"And if Star Beast World can do it, why can't we? You know, we are an orthodox student magazine."
Among them, Star Sea Youth is definitely the magazine that covets the article "The King of Tianshan - Snow Leopard" the most and regrets the most for not being able to get it.
Although this is a popular science article that both adults and children can read with relish, it is absolutely suitable for children to read.
"If we can also get even one such article, maybe we can attract everyone's attention again?"
"Yes, not to mention that we have much more funds than Star Beast World!"
However, before these interstellar magazines broke out a war for the article, an unexpected news about this article "The King of Tianshan - Snow Leopard" appeared.
That is An, the reader who had previously drawn many fan illustrations for "Marriage by Agreement" and "Rose of the Eternal Night". He suddenly forwarded an invitation to an art exhibition on Star Blog.
Everyone originally thought that it was a well-known and influential fan of this fish soup noodle teacher who drew new fan illustrations for Da Xi and Gredo in "King of Tianshan".
The result was not.
But it seemed even more unexpected.
That is, the most famous Frakton Gallery in Central Star actually launched a giant oil painting of Da Xi and Gredo in "King of Tianshan", which is expected to be exhibited this week.
And the author of this oil painting is actually the famous interstellar painter Joericks.
What wind blew this old man out? !
[An: Of course because this is my father, and he happened to be collecting folk songs in the Snowy Star System recently, so this art exhibition was held. Of course, there are many other exhibits in the gallery, and everyone is welcome to visit.
And the largest oil painting will be publicly auctioned one week after the preview.
But the most important thing is that all the income will be handed over to the Rare Species Foundation in the name of all readers, aiming to improve the technical capabilities of the major snow leopard rescue stations in the zoo and allow as many snow leopards as possible to return to the snowfield. 】
In response to everyone's confusion and doubts in the interstellar, An Xingbo's reply suddenly made everything seem extremely reasonable...
【Okay, okay... I knew that you, Mr. An, are definitely not simple. It turns out that the famous Professor Joericks is your father! ? [Sunglasses Tears]】
【The quality of the new fan art of Fish Soup Noodle Teacher has directly changed, right? I could afford to buy peripherals before, but this time I can only look at them? ? TwT】
【But I'm really looking forward to it! I'm going to Central Star on a business trip this week, can I go and reserve tickets for the exhibition first? 】
Although An didn't say it, it was actually because he was particularly excited after reading the book that he recommended it to his father like crazy, and finally this oil painting and the exhibition he personally planned came into being.
Half a month later, the Frakton Gallery officially opened, and it was indeed crowded with people.
The giant oil painting "Gredo and Daxi" in the center of the gallery exhibition hall made countless tourists stand in front of the painting and look up for a long time.
Because whether or not you have read the article "The King of Tianshan", you can feel the shocking breath of wildness and freedom in the picture of this great painting.
The first ray of sunlight at dawn illuminated the vast snowy Tianshan Mountains, and two snow leopards were standing on the cliffs.
The big one looked down at the cliff, as if coldly observing the traces of prey. Its lush and smooth hair fluttered in the wind, and was coated with a layer of sacred gold in the morning light.
The smaller cub emerged from behind, revealing two watery eyes, curiously looking at everything, and its furry tail, as long as its body, seemed to be swinging and shaking the snowflakes. The two
snow leopards, one big and one small, almost painted all the charm of Gredo and Daxi in everyone's mind.
It was as if we had come to the snowfield where Daxi and Gredo had lived in person, and even our cheeks could feel the cold wind and the cool and fresh air of the snowfield.
Following the guidance of the on-site staff, everyone left the quiet exhibition hall one by one, and then they couldn't help but talk about it.
"The ticket price is really worth it... I really want to come and see it again in the future."
"I just don't know who will take the picture of this painting, I really want to collect it!"
"It's inexplicably moving to see it. Maybe Daxi and Gredo said goodbye in the morning light like this."
Interstellar tourists who have read the story of Daxi and Gredo can naturally feel the two vigorous and free souls in the painting.
Although it is conceivable that the price of finally taking the picture of this work will definitely not be low.
"The painting in the central exhibition hall is so good. Are all snow leopards in the wild so fierce and majestic? The cub next to it is so cute!"
Visitors who have not read the story in "World of Star Beasts" can also be moved by this oil painting. They feel fascinated by the snowy cliffs and buy that issue of "World of Star Beasts" magazine to read.
The protection and rescue of wild star beasts has also undergone different changes and developments imperceptibly.
The evaluation and scoring of this exhibition on Starnet can be said to be rave reviews.
[It is really a five-star recommendation. You must go. When you see the giant oil painting in the central exhibition hall, you will find that the free life in the wilderness is really worthy of our respect and care. ]
[And the other regular exhibits in the gallery are also very beautiful. I didn’t know that the Frakton Gallery was so wonderful before. I feel that the artistic atmosphere has been improved after a round. ]
"Alas, get off work! Although the number of appointments today is also full."
"Indeed, but it really feels very different."
On this day, at the Frakton Gallery, which was about to close, several staff members couldn't help but stop in front of this oil painting to admire it after guiding tourists to leave.
"Have you read any book by this author?"
"Of course, I've already read "The Rose of Eternal Night", I'm a loyal fan!"
In response to the question from his colleagues, the young man responded instantly.
"Is that the book you read during lunch break? How about you lend it to me tomorrow..."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I just happened to have a copy in my office..."
As they closed the door and left, this conversation also disappeared at the end of the corridor.
However, in the dead of night, a painting called "Girl Watching the Morning Star" that was very popular in the depths of the gallery showed incredible movement.
The girl in a skirt in the painting actually jumped out of the picture awkwardly.
Following the blind spot of surveillance, she walked to the administrator's office with her skirt lifted, opened the novels left in the drawer with ease, and read with relish.
