Mermaid Town
Soon the next day, the Mermaid Festival, arrived.
The Mermaid Festival is an open-air festival with a gloomy sky. Although it is daytime, it feels like the evening after the sun sets, exuding a depressing and dead atmosphere.
There are mermaids on display everywhere. They are very beautiful and their tails are complete.
Except for the missing double-hatted boss, all other players have turned into mermaids, and their fish tails have merged into one.
The six players are placed together on a circular table with a small circular table in the middle.
All the players were arranged like a dish, and the other players were arranged in a circle. Gu Lin, the only little mermaid, was on the small round table in the middle.
The platform he was lying on was in the shape of a lotus, protruding high. It was very eye-catching and the absolute center of attention.
Gu Lin's fishtail is green, and he wears a pink lotus leaf baby shirt on his upper body. His arms are white and tender like lotus roots, soft and fleshy. Under him are fresh lotus leaves picked from somewhere, and he is a little flower bud.
Unlike other mermaids, whose hair strangely grew longer after being soaked in the blue solution, Gu Lin's hair remained short and smooth.
Probably because of his short hair, he wore a crocheted hollow triangle scarf hat on his head with a pattern of small strawberries on it.
Now this little flower bud is curled up in a ball, sleeping soundly as if no one is around.
The other players were lying there powerless. Maybe it was because they had been soaked in the blue solution, but they were unable to speak and could only make babbling sounds when they opened their mouths.
They were frightened at first, but when they remembered that those cheating mermaids could talk, they felt relieved and thought that the inability to speak should only be temporary.
Just when I was relieved, I was startled again. Damn, are they now consciously targeting cheating mermaids?
Players: “…”
If they can't pass the level, they will have to stay in the dungeon forever, becoming NPCs, waiting for the fish tail to slowly split open and turn into splitting mermaids.
The players tried to communicate with their eyes, but there was no tacit understanding between them and it was difficult to communicate, so they gave up and silently shifted their gaze to Gu Lin on the small round platform in the middle.
The double-hat boss is missing, and all other players have been wiped out. Now there is no hope of clearing the level.
At this time, the VIP had not yet entered the venue. Mayor Mermaid looked at Gu Lin, who was standing in the center of the round platform, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Yu Youqing standing beside him. The meaning on his face was very clear - no explanation, no explanation.
He didn't know yet that Yu Youmian had become Yu Youqing.
What he had discussed with Yu Youmian before was to use the last tube of real mermaid serum to transform Gu Lin into a little mermaid, and then send him home after the Mermaid Festival.
But there is no auction process.
However, this morning, as soon as he entered the venue, he saw the dolls already arranged.
Yu Youqing was not wearing gold-rimmed glasses, nor were he wearing white gloves. His expression was not as cold as Yu Youmian's, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He didn't get the deep meaning in the mermaid mayor's eyes. In his impression, the mayor was a bandit leader.
This little mermaid is more valuable than all the other mermaids combined. He would never have thought that the Mermaid Mayor would let go of such a great opportunity to make money.
Receiving the mayor's gaze, Yu Youqing thought he had an opinion about Gu Lin's pose, so he smiled and explained: "This little mermaid has been sleeping since yesterday. I don't know why he can sleep so well. Lying prone is more beautiful than lying down."
Mermaid Mayor: "..."
Yu Youqing was stunned when he saw that the Mermaid Mayor's brows were furrowed even deeper, not knowing what he wanted to express.
Yesterday he carried Gu Lin all the way back to the fifth floor and put him on the sofa.
His clothes were torn to tatters when he was thrown out by the "mermaid tail". While he was changing his clothes, he went out to see that Gu Lin had fallen asleep on the sofa without any defense.
It's eight o'clock in the morning and the show is about to start, but the little cub has been sleeping till now and shows no signs of waking up.
Gu Lin is small and has taken a lot of sleeping pills. He couldn't get rid of the pain in a short time, so he kept sleeping.
The mayor of the mermaid town waved to a dark-skinned man nearby and said, "Take this little mermaid away."
Yu Youqing: ""
The man was one of the four NPCs who had gone to greet the guests. After hearing the mayor's order, he went up to take Gu Lin away without asking any questions.
The players were half-lying down the whole time. As exhibits, they couldn't speak and felt hopeless.
Seeing that the mayor of Mermaid Town was obviously trying to protect Gu Lin, they all cheered up. Perhaps they still had a glimmer of hope.
At this time, Yu Youqing said: "Wait!"
The man paused, then quietly stepped aside.
Seeing the attitude of the mermaid mayor, Yu Youqing remembered that Yu Youmian had brought the cub to the secret room to ask him for pearls last night, and he was afraid that this cub was not simple.
The mermaid town is filled with resentment, which has condensed into mist. If you are not a resident of the town, you will either become the same kind as them or die.
They turned him into a mermaid not for auction, but probably to protect him.
Yu Youqing said with a smile: "The show will start soon. The guests can't wait to see the little mermaid. We can use this little mermaid as a gimmick and only exhibit it instead of auctioning it."
"With the first little mermaid, there will be a second and a third. Future mermaid festivals will attract more and more guests and VIPs."
The mermaid mayor thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Anyway, as long as he is around, he will not really sell the little baby.
However, out of Yu Youqing's sight, he calmly waved at Yu Li, who was leading the pit bull, and ordered in a low voice: "Go find Zhuang Mu."
Yu Li took the pit bull and went to receive the order.
*
Soon, the Mermaid Festival officially began.
This is a specially developed area in the Mermaid Town. It is larger than a football field and has grass on the ground.
The venue was filled with flowers and champagne, and was decorated grandly. Various mermaids were placed in every corner of the venue.
The beautiful ones are placed in prominent positions, while the less beautiful ones are placed in inconspicuous corners.
Except for Gu Lin who was concentrating on sleeping, all other mermaids were soaked in the blue solution of the mermaid base.
At this time, they felt sore and weak all over, they didn't even have the strength to move their fingers, nor could they speak. They could only lie on their respective booths like fish on a chopping board.
VIPs came in one after another.
These distinguished guests were either rich or noble. After entering the venue, they went straight to the little mermaid in the center of the venue.
Undoubtedly, this little mermaid was the best of the whole event and all the guests were attracted by her.
The five players standing around Gu Lin all looked hopeless and were forced to act as background members.
The blind monster in the wheelchair was also there. He was obviously of a very high status and was surrounded by the distinguished guests.
The distinguished guests were talking about it and looking at this one-of-a-kind little mermaid from all angles.
As they watched, they all had a doubt at the same time.
This little mermaid is chubby and cute, but she is a little too lazy. Why does she sleep all the time?
The scene was very noisy. How could he not be woken up even if he was sleeping so deeply?
A VIP questioned: "This little mermaid can't be fake, why does she keep her eyes closed?"
Mayor Mermaid glanced at Gu Lin and said with a smile: "Our little mermaid is asleep."
Another VIP said: "It's not dead, it's not moving. Find someone to poke it and see if it moves."
Mermaid Mayor: "..."
Player: "..."
In order to prove that the little mermaid was indeed just sleeping, the mayor of Mermaid Town could only signal the man next to him with his eyes and ask him to gently poke the sleeping Gu Lin.
Gu Lin didn't move and continued to sleep soundly.
The man put his finger under Gu Lin's nose to test it and said, "His breathing is normal. He is indeed asleep."
The VIP who had spoken first said, "Let the little mermaid stand up and show us whether her tail can move normally."
The other VIPs echoed: "Yeah, after all, it's the first little mermaid, what if the tail looks normal and doesn't move?"
“…”
The mermaid mayor confronted the group of distinguished guests for half a second, then signaled to the man with his eyes.
The man stepped forward, not daring to use force, and gently shook Gu Lin's small body for five minutes, finally waking the boy up.
As soon as Gu Lin woke up, he rubbed his eyes with his chubby little hands. Before he opened his eyes, the comments in his live broadcast became active.
[My son, wake up quickly, or you will be sold!]
[Don't be afraid, the mayor is here. I believe he won't just watch his cub being sold off QAQ]
[However, the mermaid outfit of the baby is so cute, and the triangular scarf hat on his head is so adorable]
…
After Gu Lin woke up, he blinked his big eyes and looked at the VIPs who were staring at him under the stage. He learned about his current situation from his aunt.
When the players saw that Gu Lin had woken up, they couldn't speak and could only stare at him with their eyes wide open.
Gu Lin turned his head, looked at the players, then stretched and yawned.
After doing this set of movements, the guests became active after a moment of silence.
"This little fat fish is really cute, I'll give you 10 million!"
"You want to buy this little mermaid baby for 10 million? That's crazy! I'll give you 20 million!"
"It's not the auction stage yet, but I think even 100 million may not be enough to buy this little mermaid."
The guests gathered around the little mermaid and started discussing it. At this moment, the guest raised another question: "Why can't this little fat fish's tail move?"
“…”
As soon as these words were spoken, all the distinguished guests looked at Gu Lin's plump fish tail.
Indeed, only Gu Lin's upper body was moving, and the fish tail was motionless, which felt fake.
The mayor of the mermaid town said with a wry smile: "This little mermaid is still a baby even in the human world. Aren't babies lazy and inactive?"
"It seems so."
The VIP seemed to be convinced by the mermaid mayor, but still had his doubts, "But there are also those who like to move."
Mayor Mermaid: "This little mermaid just doesn't like to move."
The one-eyed monster in the wheelchair sneered: "Even if you don't like to move, you have to learn how to move."
When the other distinguished guests heard this, they all nodded.
There is a difference between being reluctant to move and not being able to move. You can't spend money to buy a mermaid whose tail is just for decoration.
The VIP who initially raised doubts spoke again: "How about letting this little mermaid perform?"
When the distinguished guests heard this, they all agreed.
The players had heard this voice several times and it sounded vaguely familiar. They looked towards the VIP and saw a handsome guy with white hair. He was very tall and looked young, like a high school student.
Well, I don’t know him.
The players all turned their gazes away.
The mermaid mayor wanted to delay time, so upon hearing this, he followed the VIP's advice and let Gu Lin climb a distance to see how it goes.
Gu Lin had practiced crawling before, so when he heard the mayor ask him to crawl for a distance, he crawled hard and flapped his tail.
But it still looks very stiff and not in good shape.
The mermaid mayor said: "See, our little mermaid's tail can move."
VIPs: “…………”
There was silence for several seconds, and then all the guests gasped.
"You don't think we are blind, you think we are fools!"
"I knew that little mermaids are not that easy to cultivate. They look cute, but their tails look like props."
"Look for yourself, can this be called moving?"
“…”
At this time, the white-haired poodle started talking again: "But the props are cute too."
Other VIPs: “…”
After hearing this, the other distinguished guests looked at Gu Lin's fish tail carefully again, and then silently agreed in their hearts, and the wind direction suddenly changed again.
"It's a little stiff, but at least it can move."
"Although the tail can't crawl away, it can pupate."
"And she's a little mermaid. Maybe she's not very flexible because she's too small."
Players: “…”
Live broadcast room: "..."
My goodness, this is just a fool!
