Li Yu wanted to please King Jing, and it was not completely unreasonable.

He had read the original book and knew that although Mu Tianchi was a tyrant, he was not a tyrant who killed people without blinking an eye in the original book.

When Mu Tianchi was still King Jing, he was at most aloof and emotionally indifferent. Because he was born mute, he had long been deprived of the qualification to inherit the throne. However, he still stepped up to the throne step by step from the prince who was least likely to ascend the throne. He used thundering means to bloodbath the court and the harem, and truly changed from a silent and cold king to a cruel tyrant who frightened the world.

This transformation actually involved a long mental journey, which could not be achieved overnight, and the twists and turns could not be explained in a few words. At present, Mu Tianchi is still a king, which means that his character has not yet become a tyrant, that is, this tyrant has not really reached the point of chopping people's heads off at any time.

This can actually be seen from the fact that the big white cat was not executed when it was caught by Mu Tianchi. The

big white cat rushed into King Jing, and King Jing punished it. The punishment also made people feel cold and ruthless, but he let the cat go after the punishment, and did not let the cat bleed on the spot. This is almost impossible after ascending the throne as an emperor. It can be seen that the current King Jing is just vindictive, not cruel, and he, a fish, was saved by King Jing, isn't it also a ready-made example?

So it is not difficult to understand that the purpose of the system asking him to do the task is to change the tyrant's nature.

It is better to take action in advance when Mu Tianchi is still King Jing than to rescue him after he becomes a tyrant.

In order to complete the task, Li Yu deliberately lowered his status. Since he was going to be King Jing's pet fish, it was normal for him to take the initiative to show his kindness to his master.

But it was too difficult for King Jing to feel the enthusiasm from the posing of a fish. Li Yu blew bubbles for a long time and his mouth was sore. King Jing's eyes followed him, but his expression was still indifferent, like an iceberg that could not be melted.

Li Yu soon became a little tired.

He tried so hard to please King Jing, but he didn't make King Jing smile at all. Instead, Eunuch Wang Xi behind King Jing chuckled.

"Your Highness, look, the fish you saved is alive and can even sneeze."

Wang Xi showed a big smile from behind King Jing, watching the little carp blowing bubbles happily.

This fish is a bit interesting. It was listless and motionless before, and Wang Xi thought that the fish would die. Who knew that it would be full of energy again in just a short while.

Li Yu: "..."

Hey, don't get it wrong, this is a greeting, not a sneeze!

Li Yu blew another bubble at Wang Xi to protest.

There was no other way. He could not understand the fish language and it would hurt to shake his tail, so he could only blow bubbles vigorously.

Wang Xi misunderstood even more. He felt that the fish blew bubbles too frequently and became a little worried. He carefully asked King Jing: "Your Highness, is this fish sick? Why is it sneezing again?"

Li Yu: "..."

You sneezed, your whole family sneezed!

Before King Jing said anything, Li Yu, who was always misunderstood, had already spit out a long string of bubbles angrily.

Wang Xi suddenly became very nervous: "Your Highness, this fish is probably spitting water?"

King Jing: "..."

Although King Jing could not speak, he was not blind and deaf, and he was very clear in his mind. How could a fish sneeze and spit water? Wang Xi, this shrewd man, obviously said it on purpose to amuse him.

But this fish...

is too lively.

Mu Tianchi has never seen such a lively fish. Looking at the fish in the celadon fish tank that kept spitting bubbles and the water grass leaves covering the fish, the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.

"Master, King Jing, look here, look here!"

It was inconvenient to move lying in the water grass quilt. Li Yu hesitated for a moment, then abandoned the water grass quilt that he had just folded not long ago, and swam towards King Jing happily.

The second step of the main quest is to interact with the tyrant. He just blew a few bubbles, but the system did not prompt him, which means that just blowing bubbles does not count.

The system pitted him from beginning to end and did not tell him what this interaction meant. Li Yu could only explore it on his own and try it boldly. It was a rare opportunity to meet King Jing face to face, so he must be diligent to seize this opportunity and complete the second step of the task in one go.

It was also very strange to say that King Jing was born mute and could not speak, while he spoke fish language that no one could hear, which was actually the same as being mute. To some extent, he and King Jing could be regarded as suffering from the same disease.

But both of them could not make any sound and communication was difficult. How could they interact?

Li Yu tried his best to recall all the tricks he knew. From the green water plants around him, he suddenly thought of the magical seaweed dance. Why not just dance a seaweed dance for King Jing? Without any interaction, just create an interaction?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea.

But he was still injured and couldn't swing the fish's tail randomly. So he might as well keep the lower half of the fish still and only move the upper half of the fish, which was less injured and less painful.

Jump as soon as he said it. Li Yu imagined himself as a cute seaweed, twisting his upper body exaggeratedly, making up and down twisting waves.

Mu Tianchi and Wang Xi: "..."

King Jing stared at the small carp intently. He felt that this fish was a little unusual, but King Jing had a cold face. Even if he was a little surprised in his heart, he would not easily show it.

Wang Xi felt like he was going to go blind. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Your Highness, this fish... is it cramped?"

In fact, Wang Xi's first reaction was that the fish was twisting and turning, as if trying to please King Jing, but Eunuch Wang had always heard that smart cats and dogs could understand human nature. Could this fish be smart?

Reason told him that it was impossible, so Eunuch Wang was more inclined to believe that the fish had cramps.

Li Yu: "..."

You have cramps, your whole family has cramps! !

Wang Xi ruined the atmosphere again and again, and Li Yu was in no mood to continue dancing the seaweed dance.

He danced for so long, but the system still didn't give any prompts. Li Yu simply stopped dancing and stopped on the white stone bed to rest for a while.

After he turned into a fish, the first skill he lit up was swimming. Now he was very familiar with floating in the water.

King Jing kept staring at him, and when he saw that the fish didn't move, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Wang Xi immediately found a new entry point: "Your Highness, why is this fish not moving?"

Li Yu: "..."

It's so hard to be a pet fish, why do I always encounter nitpicking!

Li Yu turned away restrainedly. He couldn't always be angry, he had to focus on how to complete the task as soon as possible.

"Hey, system, what is interaction?"

Li Yu tried to call the system. Even the seaweed dance was not considered an interaction. This task was too bad.

The system couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him: "The so-called interaction is the action of you and me."

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu finally understood why he couldn't complete the second step smoothly despite his efforts. Because from beginning to end, he was the only fish that could move vigorously, and King Jing didn't move at all. How could it be considered an interaction of "you and me"!

Then, how can I make King Jing move?

Li Yu fell into deep thought. After all, this is a tyrant leader who can't even be moved by the seaweed dance. Oh, fish life is too difficult.

Li Yu was concentrating on his thoughts, and Wang Xi was also staring at this fish all the time.

Eunuch Wang had his own plans. This little carp was found, rescued, and sent to the palace by King Jing himself. Wang Xi had followed King Jing for many years and knew that his prince was cold-hearted and rarely cared about people and things. What did it mean that he was willing to save the fish this time? It

meant that the fish caught his prince's eye and that he was a little interested in it. He even ordered him to prepare a fish tank and put the fish in it. Isn't this the setup for raising fish?

No matter what he raised, Wang Xi was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. His cold prince finally felt a little warm.

Wang Xi nagging for several times, but he didn't dare to speak directly, for fear that if he said it out loud, King Jing would be stubborn and refuse to raise the fish again, so he had to go around in circles.

He found that King Jing's eyes had been following the small carp. When the small carp twisted and turned, King Jing did not make any clear expression, nor did he turn around and leave immediately. The small carp swam and stopped moving. King Jing's face did not change, but he raised the corners of his lips with great difficulty, but soon fell down.

This was a bit unhappy.

Wang Xi saw it with his own eyes and was anxious in his heart. This is not how you raise fish. How can you just watch it?

Wang Xi guessed that King Jing had never raised fish or other living things, and he didn't know how to deal with it. Wang Xi tentatively asked: "Your Highness, is this fish... too hungry to have any strength?"

Mu Tianchi glanced at him quickly.

Wang Xi knew that this was an order for him to continue, and he smiled and explained, "People will lose their strength when they are hungry. I think that this fish is just like people, and it needs to be full to be energetic. I have prepared some fish food, so why not let me feed it."

Mu Tianchi thought for a moment and nodded gently.

Wang Xi bowed and took out two bamboo boxes from his sleeves. He opened them one by one. Each box was filled with red and green fish food, each one was as big as a grain of rice.

Mu Tianchi: "..."

Wang Xi picked up a few fish food and sprinkled them in the blue and white porcelain fish tank in front of King Jing.

Li Yu, who was thinking hard, smelled the fragrance of food. He had not eaten anything since he turned into a fish, and his empty stomach immediately started to growl.

Is there something delicious?

Li Yu looked around, and soon the red and green particles scattered in the water attracted his attention. This thing smelled very fragrant, even more tempting than the delicacies he had eaten before.

If you are hungry, you will not have the energy to complete the task... Li Yu immediately persuaded himself to swim over and circled around one of the red particles.

This seems to be... fish food?

I heard that fish food can be made of flour or insects. I don’t know which one this is, but it smells so good and I want to eat it...

On the one hand, Li Yu despised himself for adapting to the taste of fish so quickly, and on the other hand, he was drooling.

In the end, appetite still defeated self-esteem.

How do fish... eat things? ?

Li Yu hesitated and moved forward, gently poking the fish food with his fins.

Suddenly - he felt a compelling gaze on him.

Li Yu looked up and saw King Jing's dark eyes, staring at him without blinking.

Li Yu: "..."

He wanted to be more elegant and use his fins to "hold" the fish food before eating, in case King Jing noticed something was wrong...

Although King Jing was dumb, he had a very sharp mind!

Li Yu quickly grabbed the fish food and slipped into the water grass quilt.

He felt a little embarrassed for some reason to eat in front of King Jing, so he decided to hide it and eat it first, and then do his task after eating.

The delicious fish food quickly melted in his mouth. Li Yu smacked a few bites. It was so good, it was made of flour!

But why did this rich taste so much like fish-flavored shredded pork?

...Never mind, as long as Li Yu has something to eat, like fish-flavored shredded pork, it can be considered to appease his heart that cannot eat human food.

Li Yu quickly ate a whole red fish food, but he was still very hungry, so he planned to go out to find a few more.

Because he knew that King Jing was watching him, he was afraid of being discovered, so he would always find a fish food and take it away, eat it stealthily, and then go out to find another one.

Gradually, he found that the red fish food tasted more delicious than the green fish food, and the green fish food was a bit bland.

King Jing watched the little carp eat the fish food for a long time, his eyes were heavy.

Just now, for a moment, he actually felt that the action of the little carp using its fins to pick up the fish food was a bit like a human.

But soon, he could not see it much.

Author's words:

King Jing raises fish, and the one he worries about the most is Wang Xi, hahaha!

Mini-drama:

Li Yu: Red fish food tastes good, master, I want a lot of red! (Lifting the fish fins)

King Jing: Be good, there will be better food in the future, do you want it?

The fish food in the fish-flavored pork shreds is my lake green, don't take it seriously~~
