Chapter 518: Carnivorous Mermaid vs. Sickly Merchant (10)
Lu Cha swam out of the water curiously. Yu Chen, who was standing by the pool, was still signaling Yu Ming to throw the lively carp into the pool.
Did the little villain give her a pet because he was afraid she would be bored?
Seeing the little mermaid sticking her head out and looking at him blankly, Yu Chen gently explained:
"Carp will be food for tonight and tomorrow morning."
In addition to conducting research experiments on mermaids in recent years, he has also learned about the living habits of this species.
It hides during the day and comes out at night. It likes to eat live fish or fresh animals.
In fact, mermaids are not as beautiful as they appear. They are bloodthirsty and cruel. They love to tear living things apart with their sharp teeth and enjoy the pleasure of hunting. Otherwise, they would not be called monsters of the deep sea.
However, the little mermaid looked at Yu Chen with a complicated look:
“I like it cooked.”
"I eat what humans eat."
Yu Chen: “…”
Yu Ming, standing next to Yu Chen, grabbed the last red carp, not knowing whether he should continue throwing it away.
A moment.
Yu Chen waved his hand and asked Yu Ming to put the red carp back into the bucket: "Inform the servants to prepare a sumptuous dinner, no vegetarian dishes."
It turns out that the habits of the mermaid royal family are different from those of ordinary mermaids.
Yu Chen made a note of this in his mind when he suddenly heard two bangs.
Lu Cha threw the two carp she caught into the plastic bucket Yu Ming was carrying, her eyes sparkling. "One for soup, one for braised."
"I'll keep the remaining fish for a few days before eating it."
Hearing this, Yu Ming's mood became subtle.
Doesn't this mermaid have any self-awareness at all?
She's been kept in captivity now! Why is she still ordering food here like it's a restaurant?
"Sir, this..."
Yu Chen: "Do as she says."
Yu Ming retreated silently.
The chef in the old house was very quick. It didn't take long for him to prepare one delicious dish after another, which were then brought over by the servants.
Yu Chen even specially asked the servants to bring a low table so that Lu Cha could sit by the pool and eat.
Lucha was the first to taste the carp.
The fish soup is fragrant and the fish is delicious.
Oh no!
The chef in the little villain's house is much better than the chef in the bastard's house!
Yu Chen, who had already returned to the living room, placed the small scales that he had been hiding in his palm into a specially made jade box and handed it to Yu Ming:
"Send it to the research institute for experiments to see what the fish scales and blood are used for."
After Yu Ming nodded and left, Yu Chen turned around.
Through the floor-to-ceiling window at the back, he could vaguely see the little mermaid in the backyard pond, squinting her eyes contentedly and enjoying her dinner.
Once the little mermaid recovers, she can verify the legends one by one.
Yu Chen saw some blood on his fingertips out of the corner of his eye, raised his hand to his lips and licked it gently.
A fishy smell mixed with a strange aroma spread across his taste buds.
Is this the blood of the mermaid royal family?
The corners of the man's mouth blossomed into a perfect smile, as if he was very satisfied with the taste.

The next day.
Lu Cha, who was sleeping at the bottom of the pond, was awakened by the dazzling sunlight.
She must ask the little villain to build a sunshade for her today!
Lu Cha swam to the surface of the water with resentment, but saw that breakfast had already been placed on the table by the pool.
But the yard was empty and extremely quiet.
Yesterday the light was too dim and she was not feeling well, so she couldn't see her surroundings clearly. Today she discovered that there was a lush green bamboo forest not far from the pool.
On the other side of the bamboo forest is the two-story building of the main courtyard. Many palace lanterns engraved with intricate patterns are hung on the surrounding corridors.
From the gems of different colors inlaid on it, it can be seen that each palace lantern is of extraordinary value.
Is the little villain so rich?
Lu Cha excitedly turned into two legs and went ashore, intending to take a few beautiful gems to decorate his pool, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a dilapidated brick house deep in the bamboo forest.
It seems that this place does not exist in the original owner's memory.
Lu Cha went over to check it out out of curiosity.
The wooden door of the brick house was not locked. When she pushed it open, she saw a few miscellaneous items scattered inside.
Noticing a few blurry footprints on the dusty floor, Lu Cha followed the tracks and suddenly stopped.
She took a half step back and stepped on the wooden board again. The sound was hollow.
Lu Cha squatted down and pried open the wooden board easily.
A narrow staircase leading underground came into view.
Hehehe~
Found the little villain's secret! ~
