Chapter 2
Ah Yan's mind went blank for a moment. He thought of the strange traces on the sea pillar, and said in a very difficult and confused way: "...Seven years?"
How long is seven years to a mermaid?
——Most mermaids have a lifespan of 700 years, and seven years is only one percent of it. It seems that they can pass the time after waking up and blinking.
What was it like seven years ago to Homura?
——He remembered the night seven years ago in his memory, Ah Lin taught him to make a trap with seaweed, caught three small finger-long fish, and was imprisoned in panic in the water ball condensed on Ah Lin's fingertips, like land Exquisite handicrafts made on.
In the end, the three small fish were turned into fish soup by Ah Yan and eaten into his stomach, and the seven years ago in his mind became a distant memory that could not be touched.
Ah Lin didn't answer, he just looked at Ah Yan with complicated eyes, as if guessing whether the person in front of him was playing some kind of trick.
Ah Yan stared deeply at Ah Lin, he suddenly understood something, and asked softly, "Aren't we friends after seven years?"
In Homura's gradually blurred vision, Rin nodded imperceptibly.
Ah Yan wiped away her tears fiercely, crushed the beads of tears in the air, and swam away without looking back.
A Cuo behind him made a surprised and angry voice: "How dare he use such an attitude?!"
Ah Lin didn't answer, and looked at Yan who was going away silently. It seemed that Ah Yan, who was peeping at her with dark and despicable eyes yesterday, had disappeared, and Ah Yan, who used to play happily behind her, had returned, only to be touched by her own hands, Stupid, anxious and scared to push away.
Ah Lin is no longer his friend? !
Ah Yan was sad and angry, and he suddenly realized that no matter how short the time, he has a powerful power that even the fierce merman can't stop-he can easily dilute everything he once swore.
Ah Yan swam to the side of Hai Zhu, he looked up at the seven strange traces, guessing what he had experienced in the past seven years, unexpectedly even his good friend Ah Lin was thrown away in time.
Ah Yan felt lonely, and this emotion that ran through his entire childhood reappeared again in the growing period that was about to end. He suddenly thought of his grandmother, and couldn't help swimming home in a panic. Go into grandma's cabin and jump on grandma.
"Grandma, grandma..." Ah Yan called eagerly.
He was afraid that during the seven years of strange disappearance, he would lose even his most cherished mother.
The sickly female merman woke up from her sleep. She touched her child's wet head in surprise, sat up immediately, and hugged him in her arms: "Ah Yan, why did you go out again? Is someone bullying you? "
The anxious voice of the female merman revealed a kind of terminally ill weakness, and Ah Yan's tears burst down, condensing into crystal pearls and falling to the ground.
"No, Grandma, no one bullied me." He choked up and spoke intermittently. He suddenly realized that during the seven years of disappearance, his precious mother had been deprived of health by time, but he couldn't get rid of it. recapture.
"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" He raised his head and looked at his pale-faced grandma with tears in his eyes.
The female merman looked a little surprised. How long has it been since she saw her child in her arms?How long has she not seen the concerned eyes of her children?
It seems that right after that, when the child named Ah Lin announced that he wanted a male merman from the same clan to form a partner, his child changed.
There are very few females in the mermaid tribe. In order to reproduce offspring, a pair of males can also form a partner. During the reproductive period, one of the males can temporarily transform into a female until it gives birth to a young and then transforms back into a male again.
Ah Yan's mother was a precious female, but she ignored the clan's wishes and insisted on marrying a foreigner of unknown origin, but she was abandoned by him after giving birth to her young son, and was ridiculed by others.
Coupled with the fact that the offspring they gave birth were as weak as crippled, the female who was supposed to live a good life was further neglected, and now she was seriously ill, and there was no way to heal her.
Even if his child wants to form a partner with a member of the same clan, she can't exercise the rights that a female has and plan for the future of her child.
Ah Yan looked at the sadness and sadness on his mother's face in confusion, leaned in her arms, stroked her back clumsily, and comforted her: "Grandma, don't be sad, I will find a way to heal you of."
The tears of the female merman fell down all of a sudden, and condensed into pearls that were more condensed than Ah Yan's. She gently combed Ah Yan's messy hair with her fingers, and said softly: "Ah Yan, don't go to Ah Lin again. Grandma will do her best to help you live a better life."
Ah Yan raised her head and looked at her mother in a daze, so she nodded ignorantly.
He wanted to tell his grandmother that he seemed to have lost seven years of time, but he was worried that his grandmother's current body could not bear it, and finally fell silent.
That night, Ah Yan spent a sweet night in the warm arms of her grandmother.
In the early morning of the second day, someone knocked on the small courtyard of Ah Yan's house. He comforted the tired grandmother, and carefully got out of bed to open the courtyard door.
It was Ah Lin, Ah Yan was a little surprised.
A Lin's figure is tall and strong, only covered by the randomly woven seaweed, the exposed legs are as strong and powerful as his fish tail, which makes A Yan, who has thin and deformed legs so thin and deformed that he struggles to run, envy and envy.
He stood barefoot on the beach, holding a fish reel in his hand, and when A Yan came to open the door, he handed it over silently.
Doubt appeared in Ah Yan's eyes, and he took a look. The basket full of fish maws was fresher and better than all the fish maws he had ever seen.
The tired dark circles under Ah Lin's eyes showed that he worked hard all night, and Ah Yan was in a complicated mood holding the fish basket.
"Here." Ah Lin's voice was hoarse, "What I owed you seven years ago, I will pay you double now."
It turned out to be the swim bladder of Chiyan fish.
It turns out that A Lin can easily catch this precious fish now.
Ah Lin thought of Ah Lin's weak body, so he didn't make a sound. After a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I won't look for you again." Although he didn't know what happened between him and Ah Lin during the seven years. What happened, but judging from Ah Lin's attitude, it's best to avoid it.
——Although in Ah Yan's consciousness, they still agreed to be close friends in the future a few days ago.
Ah Lin didn't answer any more, he stared at Ah Yan for a few times, and found that he could no longer see the dark and longing eyes of the past seven years, and couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or relieved.
He turned around and ran towards the beach, dropped the seaweed and jumped into the sea, melted the fish tail and left quickly.
Put the swim bladder in the kitchen and soak it in sea water. Ah Yan found out the tears that fell on the ground last night and turned them into pearls, and took them to a nearby human village to exchange for nourishing medicine. The fish maw that Ah Lin sent was put into a casserole bought from the human race, boiled into thick soup, and served to Grandma.
It's not that he didn't think about going to the clan to seek medical treatment from the clan doctor, but thinking that even Ah Lin didn't want to be his friend anymore during the seven years he disappeared, he felt a little timid.
What's more, he has never seen a family doctor until he was almost a hundred years old, and he has been neglected by the family all the year round. Once he has to face strange personnel and affairs in the family, he will have a preconceived idea of avoiding them as much as possible.
Ah Yan struggled for a long time, he was weak, he was often sick when he was a child, and he always took human medicinal herbs to treat his illnesses, and this time when the human race gave grandma the medicine, grandma did not stop him, so he decided to try to heal grandma by himself, if there is any If there are any signs of deterioration, go to the family doctor immediately.
Ah Yan was sitting next to the stove fanning the fire. Although he was a mermaid, he was naturally afraid of fire, but the constant contact with fire over the years had tempered his courage, and now he was starting to faint. sleepy.
But in the end, he still didn't fall asleep. Not long after, Ah Yan was awakened by the sudden noise outside the small courtyard.
Ah Yan felt uneasy and ran out quickly.
I saw the simple wooden door of the small courtyard being smashed open, and a few strange figures wrecked everywhere in the courtyard, tearing all the dried fish that Ah Yan's mother had been drying outside to the ground, and stepped into the sand.
Ah Yan's eyes were red for a moment, and he rushed to stop him: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The visitor sneered, and swung his fist up, hitting Ah Yan's nose directly, knocking him to the ground, light blue blood gushed out, and Ah Yan was in a panic.
The sensitive and fragile nose was injured, and unstoppable tears welled up in Ah Yan's eyes, which turned into pearls and fell.
He hated himself for being weak, and looked up at a familiar figure coming up from behind the crowd.
It was A Cuo.
The always proud and beautiful Ah Cu showed a ferocious expression on his face that made Ah Yan feel a little palpitated. His face was as heavy as water, and his eyes were so thick that it seemed that he couldn't melt the ink. !Fuck|Your mother!"
Ah Yan was dumbfounded!
After Ah Cu kicked him, he was still angry, and he didn't know what he picked up and smashed it directly. Ah Yan's head was bleeding instantly, and he scolded: "If you dare to appear in front of Ah Lin again, I will kill you!" Pull it out, and send it to the bed of those perverts of the human race, anyway, don’t you love to seduce, I will let you die on the bed!"
Ah Yan was shaking with pain, the thing that Ah Cuo threw made him dizzy, and he couldn't stand up for a long time.
The group of people who followed A Cuo seemed to have heard some order. As soon as A Cuo finished speaking, they all rushed forward, sat on Ah Yan's waist alone, stabbed a knife into Ah Yan's leg, and forced him to Transform into the original form.
Ah Yan let out a miserable howl, and the thin fish tail was instantly revealed. A few pairs of cold and cruel hands immediately grabbed his tail fin, inserted the sharp nails into the fish scales and tore them fiercely, and discarded them casually, causing Ah Yan to be so painful that he couldn't even make a sound. Can't send it out.
A Cuo stared indifferently. He saw Ah Yan struggling in the sand in pain. His originally delicate face was covered with tears that could not be condensed in time because they flowed out too fast. They were mixed with sand and twisted by pain. He couldn't see his appearance clearly, and he didn't know whether he was relieved or relieved his hatred. He turned around and was about to leave, but the door of the hut that had been closed all this time was slammed open, and a female mermaid who was panting even if he took a step walked out. .
Everyone was stunned.
Young female mermaids of the right age are very rare in the clan. Now a female mermaid with a good face suddenly appeared. Even A Cuo, who had already formed a partner, couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the instinctive desire to reproduce. Influence.
He swallowed hard, and looked at the pale-faced female merman with some confusion.
The female merman held a wooden stick in her hand, as if she was fighting for her last breath, she rushed fiercely from the male merman who was raging against Ah Yan.
She swung the wooden stick heavily and yelled angrily in a hoarse voice: "Get out, get out! Bullying the clansman at will, is this the inspiration brought by the patriarch's teachings?"
Even if it is anger, the curses and threats of female mermaids are more gentle and weak than those of male mermaids, but they are females after all, and the strict family rules clearly stipulate that females cannot be bullied and forced, otherwise they will be sentenced to death. The next movement, a little at a loss looked at each other, and finally looked at A Cuo.
Ah Cuo suddenly laughed, and his laughter became louder and louder, as if he had discovered something ridiculous, he reached out to catch the rice-sized teardrops from the corners of his eyes, threw them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed them into his stomach, revealing a teardrop. Smiling grimly: "I just realized why he is a slut, the person who gave birth to him is also a slut. He was abandoned when he tried his best to marry a foreigner, a prostitute, a child, a slut..."
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa and.
A Cuo was frowning, when he heard a sharp scream in his ears, a pain in his head, he felt viscous liquid pouring out of his eyes, nose, mouth and even his ears, he was a little panicked and wanted to grab something, but he still couldn't. Not as soft as the ground.
Ah Yan stretched out her legs, pushed away the clansman who was stunned by the bleeding from the seven orifices, and stood up staggeringly.
His legs are covered with light blue merman's blood, against his pale complexion, there is a strange beauty of being abused.
Ah Cu stared blankly at the lifeless indifference in Ah Yan's eyes, and slowly thought of——
It turned out that I would not die in the sea, nor would I die in the hands of a powerful enemy, but I would die in the hands of such a waste.
But maybe, this is not trash, but... Zaiyuan Qianlong!
