Chapter 59: Eternal Day (Twenty-three) Silver
The burning pain deep in the coccyx became more intense.
Wen Yin soaked in the cold pool water and moved her body impatiently, but she couldn't find a posture that could relieve the pain.
She had completely lost her strength and lay listlessly on Cangli's cold chest, with only half of her hot little face and tightly closed eyes exposed above the water, her breathing becoming increasingly rapid.
Cangli's arms were still tightly wrapped around her, and his tail fin, with obvious anxiety and clumsy tenderness, gently patted her lower back and tail vertebrae, trying to soothe her with the cold touch and regular rhythm, but with little effect.
Seeing that Wen Yin was still unbearable, Cangli raised his hand and brushed away her furrowed brows. He then placed his cold lips over hers and carefully passed her a mouthful of the slightly sweet and fishy blood.
In a daze, Wen Yin's eyelashes were half closed, and she saw Cangyu, who was originally standing on the shore, also went into the water.
The tall figure sank straight into the pool, and the water level instantly reached above his waist.
The next second, a fish tail covered with inky black scales suddenly appeared under him and swam towards Wen Yin.
She swallowed the blood that Cangli passed to her in her throat, and a familiar warmth quickly spread, like the best analgesic, slightly suppressing the pain in her tailbone, but also making her already drowsy consciousness even more blurred.
In a trance, she felt herself being carefully picked up by a pair of steadier and stronger arms.
The support point for lying down shifted from Cangli's slightly cold chest to an even colder inky-colored scale.
The scales felt icy cold to the touch, but strangely fitted her burning legs, bringing even more noticeable relief.
Cangyu didn't make any unnecessary movements. He held Wen Yin, who was almost unconscious, and slowly sank into the deeper part of the pool.
The water rippled, wrapping around her hot body.
The light above my head gradually became hazy, and finally only the swaying halo reflected by the water surface remained.
Wen Yin closed her eyes and let herself fall into a protected dream.
-
Wen Yin was awakened by the swaying golden halo.
She slowly opened her eyes and found that she was in front of a sparkling world.
There was long sea-blue hair floating in the water, entangled with her soft black hair.
And Cangli's breathtakingly beautiful and enchanting face was right within reach, staring at her without blinking.
His eyes were filled with indescribable anticipation and concentration.
After a few seconds, Wen Yin's wandering thoughts completely returned to her mind, and she suddenly realized that she was still floating in Cangli's arms.
And... it's underwater.
In an instant, human instinct made Wen Yin subconsciously want to struggle to float up, but his limbs felt a strange heaviness and disharmony.
She opened her mouth in panic, but only spit out a string of fine, crystal-clear bubbles, which floated upwards gurglingly.
Seeing that the newborn mermaid was about to drown, a faint smile finally flashed across Cangli's eyes.
He raised his arm, which was still around Wen Yin's waist, slightly, and with a flick of his tail fin, he carried her gracefully and swiftly to the surface of the water.
“Crash!”
Cangli held Wen Yin in his arms and emerged from the water.
The brilliant orange sunrise just jumped out of the sea level, casting its brilliant light unreservedly between the sea and the sky.
It also outlines a circle of dazzling light for the two people breaking through the water.
Wen Yin coughed violently and instinctively took deep breaths of fresh air, her hands still tightly clutching Cangli's smooth and cold arm, as if it were a life-saving piece of driftwood.
However, when Wen Yin calmed her breathing a little and subconsciously looked down at the water, she was stunned.
The clear, rippling water surface was like a perfect mirror, reflecting her appearance at the moment.
It was still the same fair and beautiful face, but it seemed to have been carefully carved, shedding the last trace of human childishness, presenting an ethereal and transparent beauty.
The wet black hair stuck to her cheeks and neck, making her skin look even whiter than jade.
The most eye-catching thing is behind her ear.
It was no longer smooth, but dotted with countless delicate silver scales. They spread along the curve of the auricle, gleaming a cold and dreamy glow in the morning light.
Even when her breathing was slightly rapid, there seemed to be two translucent silver ear fins on the edge of the scales, as thin as cicada wings, fluttering very slightly.
Under the swaying waves, the new, slender and elegant fish tail covered with moonlight-like silver-white scales was faintly visible, gently overlapping with Cangli's dark blue fish tail, reflecting a dazzling brilliance.
Just lying in the water, they are a beautiful work of art.
"Is this... my tail?"
A soft and gentle voice sounded, and Wen Yin didn't notice the hand that was gradually tightening on her lower back. She was only attracted by the silver-white tail.
Wen Yin tried to move, and the silver tail fin rippled underwater like gauze.
"Well, your tail."
A clear young voice sounded faintly in front of him. It was Cangli who spoke softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the newborn fish.
Although Wen Yin had heard Cangli speak before, she was always in a daze and confused at those times.
After hearing it with her own ears, Wen Yin looked at Cangli in surprise. After all, in her previous interactions, Cangli had always been disguised as a mute mermaid.
At the same time, she also felt the fingers that were caressing her lower back dangerously, without any cloth covering it.
[Host, you... you are not wearing any clothes...]
Following 028's reminder, a sea breeze blew over, and Wen Yin felt a chill on her chest.
She looked down in surprise, only to discover that, apart from a few strands of black hair that fell on her chest, barely covering the pink flowers, she was actually...
A sincere heart...
Wen Yin suddenly let out a short cry of surprise, and as if she had been electrocuted, she let go of her hand that was still on Cangli's arm to maintain balance.
At the same time, he swung his tail violently and dodged backwards in embarrassment.
After being a human being for more than 20 years, this state is tantamount to running naked.
But she forgot that she was just a mermaid who had just transformed and was not yet familiar with her body.
The control over the tail is almost zero.
So, the moment she broke free from Cangli's support, she fell into the pool in a mess, splashing a lot of water.
Wen Yin floated up and down in the water in a panic, and inadvertently drank several mouthfuls of pool water.
[Host! You wag your tail!]
028 I was anxious watching this. How come it can’t swim with such a beautiful tail?
Wen Yin swung his tail a few times in a disorderly manner while struggling, but he felt that he was getting farther and farther away from the water surface and was about to sink to the bottom.
Cangli, who had been watching for a long time, finally seemed unable to bear it anymore.
He suddenly sank into the water, and his gorgeous blue tail was like fine silk in the water, gently approaching and supporting Wen Yin's swinging tail.
The silver-white and dark blue colors stuck together, bringing a guiding force, helping Wen Yin to swim underwater.
And her lips, which were opened in panic, were gently touched by Cangli's fingers.
Wen Yin looked at Cangli in front of her across the water and found that Cangli was looking at her lips and shaking his head at her.
It seems to be saying, don't open your mouth.
Wen Yin immediately shut her mouth.
With the force guided by Cangli's tail, Wen Yin calmed down a little from the panic she felt when she fell into the water.
But she still covered her chest with her hands, and her face was visibly flushed.
I don’t know if it’s caused by holding the breath, or if it simply symbolizes the shame that belongs to human beings.
Cangli naturally saw Wen Yin's action, but he did not make any other movements. He just raised his hand and gently stroked the new fine scales behind her ear while Wen Yin was looking at him in confusion.
At the same time, his thin lips moved and said, open.
Wen Yin understood Cangli's lip movements, but she moved her ears and failed to open the scales.
Cangli frowned and tilted his head slightly as if to demonstrate. His delicate blue ear fins were exposed to Wen Yin's vision, slowly opening and closing with Cangli's breathing.
Wen Yin realized that Cangli was teaching her how to breathe underwater using her ear fins.
But no matter how long she tried to control it, the fine silver scales remained tightly closed.
Wen Yin's face became redder and redder.
It's caused by holding your breath.
Cangli seemed to sigh silently, and his tall body moved closer to her.
He raised his hand and brushed the hair that was floating around Wen Yin's ear, revealing the new, fragile scales behind it.
Cangli's fingers moved on the tightly closed scales.
The newly grown scales had not yet had time to turn into hard armor, and when Cangli fiddled with them, which was colder than the water, some gaps were vaguely revealed.
Wen Yin froze. She had never imagined that the gills used by mermaids to breathe were so... sensitive...
Wen Yin grabbed Cangli's fingers that were still fiddling behind her ears, and lowered her head somewhat unnaturally. While opening her scales and learning to breathe with gills, she also saw her own silver-white fish tail being wrapped by Cangli's dark blue fish tail.
Scales and scales are closely connected.
Wen Yin's tail twitched, and she realized belatedly that she was not only not wearing any clothes, but also no pants.
Wen Yin instinctively touched her lower back several times, but only felt a slippery patch of scales.
All the clothes she had on her last night were taken off at some point in time.
this……
Wen Yin felt the water flowing below her waist and finally accepted the fact that a fish doesn't need to wear pants.
Seeing that Wen Ci had adapted, Cangli gradually loosened his hold on Wen Yin.
He turned around flexibly and swam back and forth several times in the water as a demonstration. Finally, he supported himself on the wall of the pool and sat on the shore.
But his eyes were always on Wen Yin, and his blue tail was still swaying gently in the water, as if he wanted to test the results of his teaching.
Wen Yin flipped twice under the water.
First, she didn't have enough control over her tail, and second, one of her hands was covering her chest, taking the responsibility of preventing exposure.
This caused her posture to resemble a shrimp flopping underwater.
It has nothing to do with the elegance that Cangli has when swimming.
Facing Cangli's extremely inclusive gaze, Wen Yin finally crawled to the edge of the pool and emerged from the bottom of the water.
She looked at Cangli, whose firm belly was exposed in the morning light, and whose strength and grace coexisted, and swallowed inexplicably.
"…cough…"
Wen Yin coughed lightly, feeling ashamed for half a second for the inappropriate thought that suddenly popped up in her mind, and then she softly called out Cangli's name.
"Cangli, where are my clothes?"
"Can you help me get some clothes?"
