So, is calling him "baby" over and over again just a way to trick him into opening his mouth so you can kiss him?
Cunning fish!
Si Jin gritted his teeth, trying to bite through the merman's lips, but the other's strength was too great, easily driving him out of his mind.
Just as he finally came up with an idea to press down the fish, and was about to exert his strength, a familiar system alarm suddenly sounded in his mind—
【My lord! I really don't want to bother you, but... Ying Chengliang is almost here!!!】
The strength that had just been gathered dissipated, and her arm fell limply to her side, only to be kissed even more fiercely.
For some reason, Si Jin always had the feeling that he wouldn't be able to get out of bed more than a few times in this world.
Once the force dissipated, I wanted to shift my attention to hitting the small one.
But before the divine power could fully coalesce, the little tiger clutched its head and cried out in alarm: "There are four corpses on the ground! How do you explain this?! d(д)！ ！ ！ 】
"Waaah..."
The divine power dissipated again.
Si Jin let out a muffled groan, and just as tears were falling, she saw Ying Chengliang lead a group of people storming in aggressively, and then...
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Looking at the corpses scattered on the floor and the messy bed, Ying Chengliang frowned deeply.
Instead of blaming Si Jin, she politely invited him to the laboratory and instructed Li Xiao to pour him a cup of tea.
Others might get injured while hunting killer merfolk, but this guy... he's risking his manly dignity to climb up!
Heroes! Legends!!
Ying Chengliang had originally thought that Si Jin would protect the mermaid and refuse to cooperate, but now her emotions were... much easier to stir up, weren't they?
Ying Chengliang smiled and handed over the tea, deliberately putting Lin Yuan into the fish tank, and pulled Si Jin to sit outside the fish tank: "Doctor, look at the mess this has made. If I had known, I wouldn't have put the mermaid there. It's made you suffer for nothing."
Si Jin smiled and said, "It's alright, I'm not upset."
Ying Chengliang: ...
"In the end, this whole thing was my fault."
Si Jin: "Thank you, his skills are alright."
Ying Chengliang: ………
Is this PhD student so humiliated that he's lost his mind?
However, Si Jin's mental state was never a concern for Ying Chengliang.
Having overcome the initial awkwardness, he quickly steered the situation back on track: "Anyway, I apologize in advance, but..."
"Shouldn't we start researching the fact that this mermaid ointment can be used to make everlasting lamps?"
Si Jin also became serious: "Didn't we say we were going to make an elixir of immortality?"
"Of course, but these merfolk are precious, so the medicinal ingredients have to be extracted one by one. You see, to make merfolk ointment, you have to cut off their skin first and refine the fat little by little before it can be used as a raw material for medicine; and as for pearls, you have to keep shocking and whipping them until they cry out sooner or later; the scales can be plucked off one by one, but the most precious ingredient is... brains."
At this point, Ying Chengliang stopped looking at Si Jin and instead raised his eyes to stare intently at Lin Yuan in the fish tank, grinning mischievously: "We have to be careful when taking this one out, otherwise it'll die and its brain won't be fresh anymore."
"So, to make one pill, you have to consume a fish?"
"Huh?" Caught off guard by Si Jin's sudden question, Ying Chengliang was a little taken aback. After understanding, he immediately nodded and laughed, "Yes, yes, that's what I mean."
"But this is my first time doing something like this." Si Jin hesitated. "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold the knife steady. I wonder if there's any other living creature I can practice on?"
"Sure, you can use this lab however you like! There are plenty of mice and rabbits. I'll come over tonight and wait for your good news."
"good."
Seeing Si Jing's straightforwardness, Ying Chengliang's heart instantly brightened. During his lunch break, he even dreamed that he would live forever and ascend to become an immortal.
To his surprise, when he went to check in the evening, he saw Si Jin's most obedient little mermaid, which he used for "fishing," tied to the dissection table.
One by one, they were slowly and painfully tortured to death!
Damn it! Without this little merman's cooperation, he would never have been able to capture a white-haired mermaid of Lin Yuan's caliber!
He just gave it to him like that...
Killed?
