The two began to clash fiercely, almost to the point of fighting.
He Yong, who had already entered the water, suddenly popped his head up. He wiped the water from his forehead and shouted, "Since we're going to compete, let's compete on the bigger scale!"
He pointed to a large reef not far ahead in the sea, which was quite conspicuous in itself.
"How about we have a race to see who gets there first?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
People who had originally brought their small stools to watch the game suddenly found themselves restless and unable to sit still.
They do enjoy watching a good show in their spare time after meals.
But it would be terrible if someone were to die because of a small competition.
“He Yong, you can’t joke about this. My daughter Wanwan is still young. If something happens to her, you can’t take responsibility.”
Zhang Xiu's voice trembled. After spending so much time together, she had long been aware of Baili Wanwan's habits, especially her extremely strong competitive spirit.
Even if they have been educated, it is hard to guarantee that they will not impulsively accept a challenge.
Sure enough, before the idea had fully formed in her mind, Baili Wanwan hesitated. She gritted her teeth and was momentarily at a loss.
If I really agree, my aunt will probably be angry, right?
But……
"Everyone says you're a good swimmer, but it seems you're nothing special. You're afraid of even this little bit of water, so you're really not worthy of competing with me!"
These words thoroughly provoked Baili Wanwan, who then shouted at He Yong, "Let's compete! Wanwan has always been a great swimmer, you'll definitely regret this!"
Both were hot-blooded children who couldn't resist arguing over trivial matters, so as soon as they finished speaking, they swam toward the reef.
Upon encountering water, Baili Wanwan was stimulated and almost lost control of its tail.
She gritted her teeth and swam on her legs, quickly leaving He Yong far behind.
He Yong was naturally extremely anxious.
If I lost to such a little girl, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?!
But soon he realized something was wrong; his legs, which had been in the sea, felt as if something was pulling him down.
He Yong felt a sharp pain in his leg and almost cried out in surprise.
At the same time, the sky suddenly darkened.
A light drizzle suddenly began to fall from the clear blue sky, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
The darkness in the distance seemed to swallow the entire sea.
"Look, what's that?"
Among the crowd on the shore, someone with sharp eyes spotted something. He spoke in a panicked tone, pointing in a certain direction, his face filled with alarm.
Everyone looked over and saw a huge creature appear on the sea. The object looked dark and black, but it was large enough to devour everyone present.
"A monster!"
In an instant, everyone scattered in all directions.
He Yong was closest to the monster and was touched on the legs and feet by it, and soon fainted.
Just as he was losing consciousness, he felt a warm little hand gradually lifting him up.
Baili Wanwan could see the situation on the shore and hear the calls of Wan's family members amidst the cacophony of sounds.
In this situation, instead of thinking about escaping, he still remembers her.
A warm feeling settled over Baili Wanwan's heart.
She saw Zhang Xiu ignore the warnings and go into the water, heading in her direction.
Fearing something might happen to Zhang Xiu, Baili Wanwan held onto He Yong tightly and swam desperately towards the shore.
"Auntie!"
Baili Wanwan threw herself into Zhang Xiu's arms.
He Yong was also taken away by his family.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Baili Wanwan didn't hear a single thank you, but she didn't care.
Zhang Xiu led him all the way back to the Wan family.
...
Now, everyone in the surrounding villages knows about the monster in the sea.
People who live near mountains live off the mountains; people who live near the sea live off the sea.
The area is surrounded by mountains and water, but there are too many wild animals in the mountains, so most people choose to fish in the sea for a living.
But now that a monster has appeared, no one dares to go fishing in the sea anymore.
After changing her clothes, Baili Wanwan left the room.
The Wan family members sat together discussing their future lives.
Zhang Xiu sighed softly and poured Wan Suizhou a cup of tea.
“Father-in-law, what should we do? Our family has indeed made some money because of Wanwan, but the rest of us are not so lucky. If this continues, and another drought comes, we may starve to death.”
Zhang Xiu's words made sense, and Wan Suizhou also looked worried.
Wan Yuekui, who was standing to the side, could no longer stand it. He suddenly stood up, clenched his hands, gritted his teeth, and his face was full of hatred.
"We have so many villages around here, we can't let a monster bully us. If necessary, we can all join forces and take down that monster. That will solve everything!"
Upon hearing this, one can tell that it stems from the impulsiveness and youthful vigor of a young person, who completely disregards the consequences and seriousness of the matter.
Baili ran over, blinking her big, innocent eyes.
"Wanwan thinks what Brother Kui said makes sense. There's strength in numbers, and we can definitely take down the monster!"
She spoke with great conviction, and on this point, she reached an agreement with Wan Yuekui.
A large hand covered her forehead, and Zhang Xiu's gentle voice rang in her ears.
"Wanwan, you're still young and don't understand these things at all. How can we easily offend that monster?"
Hearing this, Baili Wanwan was somewhat confused.
She only saw that everyone's faces were full of sorrow because of the monster's appearance.
Even her underlings stopped coming to play with her.
The monsters have had a tremendous impact on everyone!
That's outrageous! She must get rid of that monster and restore everyone's normal lives.
That night.
Zhang Xiu soothed Baili Wanwan to sleep. Seeing the child's eyes gently closed, she carefully got up and then left the room.
However, she didn't notice that just after she left, the little girl on the bed suddenly opened her eyes.
His pupils shone brightly even in the darkness.
Baili Wanwan sat up and took out the dagger Zhang Xiu had given her for self-defense from under her pillow.
I opened the window, and the moonlight outside was bright, but the stars were few and far between.
Baili Wanwan dared not leave through the main gate, fearing that her secret would be discovered.
She simply took a few steps and climbed out of the window, but the moment her knees touched the ground, she felt a sharp pain.
Pulling up the trouser leg, I found the knee—
It's so hard it's rubbed raw.
But there was no time to deal with it. Baili Wanwan, with a tearful little face, walked towards the beach.
The sea was calm, and the monster seemed to have never appeared.
If we just sit and wait to die, the monster certainly won't appear easily.
I wonder if we'll have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Bai Liwan sat down on the beach and immediately felt a little dejected.
She rested her chin on her hand, looking helpless.
What should we do?
If the monster isn't dealt with, no one in this area will dare to go out to sea.
She stood up, brushed the sand off her palms, gritted her teeth, put her hands on her hips, and muttered, "Monster, you'd better just wait to die!"
