Maybe because they were in the water, as soon as they moved, Xiao Wu smelled a foul odor coming from them.
She turned around and met a pair of dim eyes.
"Please, save my brother." Although the voice was as thin as a mosquito and very hoarse, one could vaguely tell that it was a girl's voice.
She lay powerlessly on the ground, her body almost blending into the darkness. Only her eyes, shining with a faint light, could make people tell where she was.
She was like a butterfly that had fallen into a dark abyss and could no longer find its way. Suddenly one day, she saw the light of hope. Regardless of whether the light was good or bad, she followed it recklessly, hoping that one day she could return to the sunshine.
Xiao Wu's spiritual power was sealed, and he couldn't communicate with her through voice transmission. He nodded calmly, opened his mouth slightly, and silently repeated two words several times, "Wait for me."
The girl understood what she meant, and forced herself to raise her head and knocked it down again heavily. After that, she struggled for a few times but had no strength to raise her head again.
The three sentimental beasts in the space were already crying together.
Xiao Wu put away the small stool and turned sideways to return to her luxurious cell. Amidst the puzzled looks of the seafood, she took out a pot and covered herself tightly.
After a while, she opened the pot again and said something harsh, "I'm going to sleep, don't make any noise, or I'll beat you up."
The seafoods all pinched their mouths and shook their heads wildly.
Xiao Wu replaced the lid on the pot and slipped into the space, "Second Master, hit me quickly."
Chu He said nothing and swung out a spiritual power to knock her away.
Xiao Wu got up from the grass, feeling refreshed all over. She gave a thumbs-up with satisfaction, "It has to be you, Second Master. Others never had this effect when they hit me."
Chu He put his hands away and stroked his beard proudly. "That's right. Back then, your master, with his hands in his pockets, armed with a sharp sword and a furnace, was invincible..."
He had only said two or three words when he realized that now was not the time to relive his glorious moments, so he tactfully shut up, "Disciple, your spiritual power has recovered, so go and get busy."
Xiao Wu bowed, "Second Master, I will come back to talk to you in detail about your glorious deeds in the past after I am done with my work."
A kind smile appeared on Chu He's face. "I know you have always been a child with your own ideas, but you must not take things lightly. Be more careful in everything, so as not to be bullied."
Xiao Wu nodded, "Disciple knows."
Before she left the space, she took out the water-repellent beads that Fan Chichi had given her from one of the space bags, took out a rope, and quickly made the water-repellent beads into a necklace and put it on Lei Yunbao's neck.
"My dear Leopard, wear it first. I may need your help in the next two days."
Leiyunbao rubbed her palm affectionately, "Ah~ Master, I know."
Xiao Wu left the space, stuck an invisibility talisman on his body, and climbed out of the pot quietly.
The seafood, so bored that they dozed off, didn't even notice that she had crawled out of the pot and cast a sleeping spell on them.
After knocking the seafood unconscious, she placed five Thousand Jin Talismans and Solidification Talismans on the stone door of the dungeon.
After doing all this, she took the night pearl and walked sideways into the cell where the two mermaids were imprisoned.
The merman girl had been holding on for a long time, waiting for Xiao Wu's arrival. Noticing her breath getting closer, she raised her eyelids and begged her with sobs, "Please, save my brother first."
Xiao Wu sighed, first pried open her brother's mouth, and stuffed a Life Pill and a Nine Revolutions Pill into his mouth.
The Nine Revolutions Pill can quickly heal wounds, repair internal organs, and broken bones, while the Life Pill can restore vitality. The medicinal properties of these two pills are relatively mild and can melt in the mouth, making them most suitable for them.
"Come, it's your turn." Xiao Wu helped her get up from the ground, pinched two pills and gently pushed them into her mouth.
After feeding them the medicine, Xiao Wu finally took the time to check on their conditions.
They were extremely thin, so thin that they were just skin and bones. From a distance they looked like big-headed dolls.
There was not a single healthy spot on the exposed skin, including the fishtail. Old wounds had not healed yet and new wounds appeared. Without medical treatment, this happened over and over again. The wounds had begun to rot and stink. The clothes they wore could not even be called clothes. They could only barely cover their bodies.
She couldn't help but think of Xiaoyu, who was dressed in bright and beautiful clothes and had all kinds of pearls and jade on her head. Who would have thought that among the children of the Mermaid King, who were also royal family members, some lived in heaven while others struggled in the stinking ditch?
Xiao Wu raised his eyes and found that the girl was looking at him intently, with a glimmer of light in her dark eyes.
"What's your name?" When talking to her, Xiao Wu didn't even notice that her voice was so gentle.
The girl opened her mouth and fell silent.
Just when Xiao Wu thought she wouldn't answer, she whispered in a hoarse voice, "My name is Bastard, and my brother's name is Misfortune."
After she finished speaking, tears burst out and she couldn't stop them.
She had been tortured for hundreds of years, and had never cried, whether she was beaten or bled. But when she heard the soft and gentle voice of the little girl in front of her, her heart was suddenly filled with surging grievances and unwillingness.
Xiao Wu held her hand, trying to comfort her, but she pulled her hand back like a frightened bird, with a look of panic on her face. "I, I will bring bad luck to you. You are a good person, and I don't want you to get hurt."
When she said this, she really hit the nail on the head in Xiao Wu's heart. "I don't believe it. If that's the case, I've touched you so many times just now, so wouldn't I be in big trouble?"
As she spoke, she stood up and jumped a few times on the spot, "Look, I'm fine. The so-called bad luck is all fake."
Just as she finished her solemn promise, she suddenly heard Xiaoyu's voice coming from outside.
