"Let's compete to see who can swim faster!" The cub named Honghong came to pull Gu Qingxi again.
I don't want to play such a childish game with you!
After a while, Gu Qingxi swam very fast with her tail shaking, leaving the group of cubs far behind.
Gu Qingxi began to think deeply, how did she start playing such a childish game with these cubs?
Gu Qingxi was the first to arrive at the opposite lake. She turned around and looked at the group of cubs swimming towards her: "..."
These cubs looked like fake mermaids, but she was obviously the fake one, right?
"Xixi, you are so awesome." The first cub to arrive was called Qingqing.
Gu Qingxi found that the nicknames of these cubs were simple and rough, such as Honghong, Qingqing, Lanlan, Beibei, Zhuzhu...
No wonder these cubs envied her beautiful name.
Although these cubs were very happy to play with her, they were very united in not telling Gu Qingxi how to turn their tails into legs, for fear that she would run away.
Why are these cubs so smart! Gu Qingxi howled in her heart.
Even though Gu Qingxi shared the spiritual fruits in the storage bracelet with them, they still refused to give in.
"Xixi, is this the spiritual fruit you sneaked out to pick before?"
"Of course it is, it's delicious."
"It's delicious and sweet. But it's wrong for you to do this. It's really dangerous to run out without an adult."
"Any more? Give me another one. Yes, it's wrong for you to sneak out."
A group of cubs surrounded Gu Qingxi and ate, but they were still criticizing Gu Qingxi for running away.
Gu Qingxi wanted to beat these cubs, eating her own food and condemning herself. They didn't think about where the spiritual fruits would come from if they didn't run out!
She didn't want to pay attention to these childish and double-standard cubs!
Later, the cubs all climbed out of the water, turned their tails into legs, and went home. Gu Qingxi later discovered that the tails of these cubs were of different colors. It was not as clear as the bloodline class divisions of the mermaids of the deep sea clan in Haiyan City.
She had known and seen the mermaids of the deep sea clan in Haiyan City before. Their tails were divided into gold, silver, and black. Most of the mermaids with black tails were ordinary mermaids and could not practice. The mermaids with gold tails were all royals and had the best qualifications for practice, followed by the mermaids with silver tails.
The mermaid cubs here had colorful tails, including fiery red, dark blue, orange, and silver. Gu Qingxi recalled the three adult mermaids who brought her back. What color were their tails? She didn't remember it very well, but it was definitely not black.
These mermaids in the Cangyue Secret Realm were obviously different from those outside. But I didn't know where the difference was.
Gu Qingxi was alone in the lake, thinking that these cubs would not abandon her and would always tell her how to turn her tail into legs, right?
As a result, she thought too much. These cubs were very smart. One cub accompanied her by the lake, and another cub went back to find Gu Qingxi's "father".
Guyu came yawning soon, then picked up Gu Qingxi, put his hand on Gu Qingxi's tail, and turned her tail into legs.
"Baby, are you hungry? Daddy will cook for you?" Guyu held Gu Qingxi in his arms and asked as he walked.
Gu Qingxi said in her heart for the umpteenth time that I'm really not your baby, for fear that if she said this, she would become the ingredients of this meal. She didn't want to become a braised fish, thank you.
"By the way, baby, you young ones also have to participate in this year's final assessment." Guyu continued.
"How to participate, do you want to break through the levels with those monks?" Gu Qingxi was puzzled.
"Yes! Break through the levels together, in addition to seeing the cunning of humans, you also have to see if any of you can pass the levels and obtain the inheritance." Guyu said indifferently.
"Obtain the inheritance?" Gu Qingxi asked subconsciously. It was indeed the inheritance left by the great power!
"I'll tell you about this later, let's go home first." Guyu smiled slightly, did not say anything about this, but held Gu Qingxi back to his place.
Guyu's residence is near the palace where the mermaid king lives. It is also a palace, but it is smaller and not as gorgeous.
"My son, I will cook for you. I haven't cooked for a long time, so I am a little rusty. But don't worry, I won't poison you." Guyu said a little embarrassedly.
You said that, I am more worried that you will be poisoned to death! Gu Qingxi's face was full of black lines.
Finally, a bowl of green fruits and a plate of dark green leaves were placed in front of Gu Qingxi.
"Eat it." Guyu pointed to the things on the table.
Gu Qingxi picked up a fruit and took a bite carefully. It was sweet, juicy and delicious. Gu Qingxi's eyes lit up and she started to bite it.
The green leaves were also fresh and juicy, and tasted very refreshing.
Hey, the mermaid's food is quite delicious...
ah, why do I feel dizzy, why is it getting dark, why is Guyu lying sideways?
Ah ah ah ah, my god, it's not Guyu lying sideways, it's me who fell down.
I am really poisoned!
This was Gu Qingxi's last thought before she fainted, and the last thing she saw was Guyu's panicked face.
In the palace of the Mermaid King, Guyu rushed in with the fainted Gu Qingxi in his arms.
"You gave her Wuwang fruit and Changyou vegetable?" The Mermaid King's forehead was a little bulging with blue veins.
"It's delicious. I ate this when I was a child." Guyu was puzzled.
"You were in a coma for three days and three nights after eating it. You couldn't swim after waking up. You almost drowned. Have you forgotten?" The Mermaid King knew that his brother was unreliable, but he didn't expect it to be so unreliable.
"Yes, is it?" Guyu was dumbfounded. How could he remember things from his childhood so clearly? Now that he heard his brother mention it, he seemed to remember that there was such a thing. At that time, he was laughed at by other mermaids for a long time. As a mermaid, it is indeed a great shame to be almost drowned.
"The mermaid poison in this cub is very weak, and it is not enough to fight against the toxins of these two foods." When the Mermaid King said this, he was itching to hit his brother again.
"What should we do? Brother, save her quickly." Guyu urged.
What can the Mermaid King do with such a troublesome brother? He can only hold his nose and bear it.
He stretched out his hand and gently covered Gu Qingxi's belly. A flash of white light passed by, and Gu Qingxi's frown gradually relaxed.
"There may be some sequelae, but it will be fine after nursing." The Mermaid King said.
"What sequelae?" Guyu asked.
"How should I know? I'll know when she wakes up." The Mermaid King said unhappily.
...
After a while, Gu Qingxi sat expressionlessly on the huge shell seat, listening to Guyu explain to her the reason for her food poisoning.
The food she ate was toxin-containing, but it was okay for adult mermaids to eat it. Because mermaids themselves carry mermaid poison, and use poison to fight poison to neutralize this toxin-containing food. The mermaid poison of the mermaid cub is very light, and there is no way to completely neutralize the toxins in this food, so Gu Qingxi was poisoned.
And Gu Qingxi's expressionless face was not because she was calm, but because it was a sequelae of poisoning. Her face was paralyzed...
Looking at Guyu's embarrassed and apologetic smile, Gu Qingxi didn't want to speak and closed her eyes.
Fortunately, I am not his real cub. If such an unreliable mermaid takes care of the baby, can the baby grow up smoothly? I am afraid it will die! ! !
The next day, Gu Qingxi was brought to the palace of the Mermaid King.
Not only adult mermaids appeared on this day, but also all the mermaid cubs appeared here.
The Mermaid King seemed to have some important decision to announce.
