Chapter 12 Misty Fishing Village



The faint fishy smell of the small white fish lingered at Yu Chen's nose. According to Yu Chen's previous habits, he would never eat this kind of thing, but when he looked at his reflection in Mu Mu's eyes, he pursed his lips, opened his mouth and ate it.

Mu Mu couldn't wait to pry into him and asked, "Is it delicious? Is it delicious? Is it very delicious?"

Yu Chen endured the disgusting fishy smell and said, "Mm, it's delicious."

When Mu Miao heard that he liked it, she wagged her tail with joy. She picked another one from the shell and put it to his mouth, then continued to use her eyes to make Yu Chen eat it willingly.

Yu Chen had eaten most of the small white fish, and just when Mu Mu was about to reach out to take more, he grabbed her wrist.

Yu Chen swallowed, trying to swallow the fishy taste in his mouth, but it didn't help much. "I don't need it, keep it for yourself."

Mu Miao looked at the remaining fish and raised her eyes to look at him, "But these are all specially left for you, can't you eat more?"

Yu Chen: “…eat.”

In the end, all the small white fish in the shell went into his stomach. Yu Chen's face turned pale. At least in the next few months, he would never touch fish.

Well... except for this one in my arms.

After Mu Mu "served" Yu Chen with food and drink, he felt satisfied. At this time, the drowsiness from not sleeping all night came over him. Mu Mu's eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and his eyelashes drooped.

With her body enveloped by Yu Chen's familiar aura, Mu Mu felt extremely at ease and allowed herself to fall asleep.

Yu Chen pressed his fingers on the red mark on his neck and rubbed it gently, "Xiao Yu, tell me what you did outside? Why..."

The voice stopped abruptly. Seeing that he was already fast asleep, Yu Chen stopped talking.

He pinched Mu Mu's face with two fingers, which made Mu Mu's mouth pout slightly. He seemed to find it funny and pinched it again on purpose.

Mu Mu was annoyed and turned her head away with a whine, refusing to let him touch her.

"Woo~"

A resentful voice came from the treetops. The little owl stood on the branch, its eyes fixed on Yu Chen and Mu Miao, and it hunched its body, ready to attack.

Just as Yu Chen walked under the tree where the little owl was staying, the little owl suddenly grew larger, and its huge body blocked the sun. The originally bright sky suddenly became dark.

When the people at the foot of the mountain saw this, they screamed and fled.

The owl, which had grown in size, had completely lost the cuteness and pleasantness beside Mu Mu. It stared at the little mermaid with her eyes closed, and the flapping of its wings created a huge wind, and the hurricane blew up fallen leaves all over the sky.

Yu Chen looked up at it with an indifferent expression. He just pulled up Mu Mu's coat to cover his head to prevent the noise from waking him up.

"Woo!" The owl flapped its wings and swooped down towards Yu Chen.

Suddenly, an invisible force, centered on Yu Chen, unfolded with overwhelming force. Time and space stagnated slightly, and the fallen leaves stayed in mid-air, but in the next second they turned into dust and completely dissipated.

“Woo—”

The owl screamed miserably in mid-air, and its bones made twisting and crackling sounds.

Large pieces of feathers fell off, especially the fluffiest and softest little hairs on its forehead, which it loved to use to rub against Mu Mu. All of them were gone!

Yu Chen didn't kill him, just stopped at that point.

The owl fell to the ground with a thud, and Yu Chen stepped lightly over it without even a glance.

The owl turned back into a miniature size. After enduring some torture and intimidation, it became much more obedient. It lay upside down, with its short little wings covering its bald head, and it lay motionless.

Only after Yu Chen walked away did it dare to cry loudly, "Woo~~~!"

It’s gone, all gone!

The little owl cried miserably. It couldn't believe that this man could be so vicious and do such a cruel thing to such a cute little bird!

“Wuwuwuwu——”

It's hairless, woooo!

Mu Mu heard the miserable cry in his sleep, and slowly opened his eyes. He saw the little guy on the ground, "Hey, woo woo, is that you?"

The familiar sound made the little owl look up instantly, jump forward twice, and respond excitedly: "Woo!"

It’s woooo, it’s woooo!

Wuwu lost Dana last night and was worried that Mumu, the weak little fish, would meet with an accident, so he had no choice but to wait in this forest, looking at the sea. As long as Mumu appeared, he would know.

Mu Miao had just woken up, his eyes were hazy and his consciousness was unclear. He picked up a yellowed fallen leaf in a daze. He subconsciously squeezed it, and the leaf broke into powder in his palm.

A gust of wind blew, and the fallen leaves and debris were blown away by the wind.

Mu Miao waved, "Woo, come here."

Wuwu had just put down its little wings when the wind blew on its head, making it feel cold. It quickly covered its wings again, and ran to Mu Mu with its two short legs. It raised its head to look at him, and then looked at Yu Chen angrily.

Mu Miao opened his hands but Wuwu didn't fly up. He closed his eyes and ordered Yu Chen, "Yu Chen, help me pick up Wuwu."

Yu Chen and Wuwu looked at each other, and there was unwillingness and obvious disgust in the eyes of both the man and the bird.

Mu Miao didn't wait for Wuwu to reach his hands. He gently touched Yu Chen with his head and called softly, "Yu Chen, Yu Chen, are you listening? Pick up Wuwu for me."

Yu Chen: “…only this time.”

He looked down at the dirty and bald bird, feeling resistance in his heart. After some mental preparation, Yu Chen squatted down slightly, pinched the humming bird's wings with two fingertips, and quickly threw it into Mu Mu's arms.

Mu Mu held the fluffy Wuwu in his arms and subconsciously rubbed its head. Wuwu reacted quickly and quickly covered its bald head with its wings, so Mu Mu's chin touched its shiny and smooth wing feathers.

...Doesn't this feel right?

Mu Mu frowned, but he felt sleepy. He put Wuwu on Yu Chen's shoulder as a pillow, rested his head on it, and fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, it was already noon. The fat and strong koi fish surrounded him and came up to him as soon as he opened his eyes. Mu Mu stretched and touched it.

At this moment, the noise on the water surface came straight into his ears.

One of them clearly belonged to Yu Chen, while the other voice sounded particularly old. "Ah Chen, they said you secretly raised a mermaid. Is that true?"

"Um."

The voice was silent for a moment.

Are they discussing him? Mu Mu pricked up his ears to listen, but the sounds he heard underwater were very vague. He was really curious and secretly floated to the surface.

With his back to the pool was an old man with a hunched back and a cane. Yu Chen sat there leisurely drinking tea, looking as if he didn't want to pay any attention to him.

Yu Kai paced around the village chief impatiently, "Grandpa, if uncle wants to be with little uncle, then let them. You're so annoying with all your nagging!"

Yu Fan glared at him, "Why are you butting in when the adults are talking? Get out of here!"

Yu Kai pouted in frustration, "Hmph!"

Just as he was about to go down the mountain to complain to his grandmother, he saw Mu Mu in the pond. His eyes lit up and he was about to call him. Mu Mu put a finger on her lips and gestured to him to be quiet.

Yu Kai covered his mouth, indicating that he couldn't speak.

Yu Fan paid no attention to his grandson's movements, and kept admonishing Yu Chen, "Ah Chen, I don't mean to blame you. It's really that the mermaid's origin is unknown, and she looks so charming. It's obvious that she's not a legitimate fish!"

Mu Miao, who is not a serious fish: "..."

Yu Fan said earnestly, "Don't be fooled by the mermaid's appearance. The cute red lionfish we saw last time looked just like this. It seemed docile and could coexist peacefully with us."

"As a result, it poisoned us! If we hadn't discovered it early, the consequences would have been disastrous!"

At this point, Yu Chen finally spoke, "First of all, that fish is something you wanted to raise, it has nothing to do with me; secondly, I've already told you it's wild and hard to tame, it's you who were stubborn and insisted on raising it."

Yu Fan looked embarrassed, his eyes were wandering, and he pursed his lips guiltily. He finally took a break.

Yu Chen elegantly held the teacup and took a sip. Yu Fan was also thirsty and looked at him eagerly. His eyes happened to meet Yu Chen's. Just when Yu Fan thought he would give him some water, the man pretended not to see him and looked away.

Yu Fan: “…”

Mu Mu was described by Yu Fan as a dishonest fish, and he felt resentful. He didn't have to follow the rules of respecting the elderly and loving the young. According to his age, everyone present had to call him ancestor.

Mu Miao was very happy to see Yu Fan get humiliated. Who told him to say he was not serious?

Humph, he really holds a grudge!

Mu Miao snorted secretly at Yu Fan, and simply stopped looking at him, focusing all her attention on Yu Chen.

After observing Yu Chen, Mu Miao discovered that whenever Yu Chen was disgusted or uninterested in a topic, he would show a strong sense of giving up.

No matter how eloquently the other person spoke, his expression remained unchanged throughout, and then at the end of the topic, he would say one word very calmly: Oh.

He fully understands the perfunctory, non-cooperative and indifferent attitude, but others still think that his character is cold and indifferent.

Mu Mu would never forget the bad look of this man teasing him on purpose.

Yu Fan's mouth was dry as he spoke, "Hey, Achen, think about it carefully."

"Yu Fan." Yu Chen put down his teacup with a "tap" sound, and stared at the elderly man with dark eyes. "Don't act like an elder in front of me. You know, I still remember the way you looked in your open-crotch pants with a runny nose."

Yu Fan stared at Yu Chen blankly, his mouth moving, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Yu Chen spoke in a low voice, and only Yu Fan, who was nearby, and Mu Miao, who had a keen hearing, could hear it clearly.

Yu Chen leaned forward, approaching Yu Fan, "Also, don't forget, he is my kind. We are the same kind of monsters, aren't we?"

The author has something to say:

Regarding Mu Mu's identity, he is indeed a cub in the eyes of monsters because his strength belongs to the larval stage (I hope this is not a spoiler), but he is an adult in age and has no tendency to be copper-loving Orz.
