"oh?"
Unexpectedly, the murderer was still nearby, Chen Ping jumped up directly against the wind, he really wanted to see what the murderer looked like.
What came into view was a young man with red hair. This man was dressed in tatters, and he was carrying the big fish tank behind his back. Inside the fish tank was the mermaid girl who had just been auctioned off.
The boy saw that Chen Ping was just staring at him quietly, and after putting the girl down, he revealed a pair of sharp claws, which were still stained with blood.
"In this way, you are not human." Chen Ping said flatly.
"Hiss! Roar!"
The boy leaned over and roared, as if warning Chen Ping not to approach.
"I guess you can't understand what I'm saying."
Suddenly the boy gritted his teeth and rushed over, waving his sharp claws.
Chen Ping had no choice but to knock him out, and carried him to the girl. The girl kept shrinking back in horror, but there was only a little space for him.
With the two mermaids, Chen Ping sneaked into the previous aquarium, which was closed at this time.
When looking through, Chen Ping found scars on the young man's body, densely packed like vines wrapped around his body, some had stuttered, some had been inflamed and festered, and he was given medicine, and Chen Ping brought the young girl to the aquarium again. On the side, a group of spirit beasts in the ocean became energetic when they saw the girl's arrival.
The sea water in the small fish tank was almost smelly, Chen Ping picked up the girl, helped her apply medicine to the scales, and put it into the big fish tank temporarily.
For a while, Chen Ping didn't know how to deal with these two people. If he was allowed to escape like this, he would have to starve to death on the road at some point, without mentioning the inconvenience of his movement and understanding of human speech.
If it is handed over to this aquarium, I don't know if it will treat them well. It is very inconvenient to take them away by himself, and Chen Pingna has not explored the means of restraining living things.
There is no good solution to this matter for the time being, if not, just ask the old man with yellow hair for advice.
Chen Ping found a comfortable place and sat down, took out a Five Elements Grass, and tried to refine it by pulling the power of the elements in his body.
The grass on both black and white sides gradually faded in color, and the power of the five elements inside was quickly absorbed by Chen Ping.
It's good, but it's a little expensive. The power of the five elements brought by this grass is not enough, so Chen Ping refined all the remaining nine grasses.
When Chen Ping opened his eyes, he saw the mermaid girl lying on the side of the tank talking with the boy in a special language.
The boy looked happy, but the girl seemed to be wronged and said something. Chen Ping didn't know whether to break the tranquility that belonged to them.
"Hey!"
Seeing that the two were about to kiss each other, Chen Ping interrupted.
Although the young man was beholden by Chen Ping, he still looked vigilant.
Chen Ping raised his hands and waved them, indicating that he had no weapons and no hostility, and whispered: "Calm down, calm down."
The young man watched Chen Ping walking slowly, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
Seeing that the distance was almost the same, Chen Ping took out a notebook, took out a pen and drew waves and a few mermaid-like things on it.
The mermaid girl became excited, but the boy didn't react too much.
Could it be that this boy is not a mermaid? Chen Ping slid the pen and notebook over the ground.
The young man picked it up and started drawing like Chen Ping before. The things in this painting were very sloppy, but Chen Ping still saw a few key things, the signs of highly toxic chemicals, and a few Although the words are blurry but can still be read clearly, the spelling is: Xiao Mu.
Chen Ping called tentatively: "Xiao Mu?"
The young man looked up at Chen Ping, the tears in his eyes were almost unstoppable, what kind of information was contained in those eyes, pain, loneliness, unwillingness, and deep homesickness.
Chen Ping has some clues now. This young man may have become like this after being polluted. As for the mermaid's language, he should have been taken in by the mermaid clan.
His age looks about fourteen or five years old, and he can write his own name. It is estimated that he has lived with this mermaid for more than ten years, but he is a poor child.
Chen Ping squatted down and opened his arms towards the young man. He wanted to see if this most primitive method would work.
The boy turned his head to look at the girl and hesitated for a moment. The girl kept encouraging him, and finally the boy couldn't hold back and hugged Chen Ping.
This should be the first time in more than ten years that he was cared so much by other human beings. Chen Ping patted him on the back and comforted him constantly. The boy hugged Chen Ping tightly and refused to let go.
After a while, the aquarium was opened, and some staff came in to clean up and feed. One of them saw Chen Ping and the two monsters and hurriedly reported to his superior.
After a while, a skinny man came over, he recognized the mermaid in the tank, his eyes lit up and said: "My friend, thank you for giving us a rare mermaid from all the way."
"she is my friend."
Chen Ping didn't look at him, but felt the emotion conveyed to him by the mermaid girl through the glass.
"Then, how much money can buy you as a friend?" The man did not give up.
Chen Ping looked coldly at the well-dressed humanoid animal in front of him and said, "Call your curator over, just that yellow-haired old man."
The man waved his hand and said, "The curator is off today, but it's not your turn to mess around here."
"Trespassing on private areas makes you look like a terrorist to me."
Seeing that Chen Ping refused to enter, the man said to the people next to him, "Tie them up for me."
Seeing that some people had bad intentions, the young man leaned over and made an attacking gesture, constantly intimidating the people who were walking slowly.
Chen Ping took a step forward, stood in front of the boy, and said loudly: "I see who of you dares to touch them today!"
The figure in front of him reminded the boy of his father who often carried him on his back when he was a child, and his eyes began to turn red again.
Seeing that Chen Pingshi was about to fight them to the end, with an invincible aura exuding from him, the crowd did not dare to move forward.
During the stalemate, it was time for the aquarium to open. Because of yesterday's incident, many people came to see Guonan's performance.
Even if there were managers, someone soon came to the stalemate.
"What now? A melodrama?"
"Look, is that a mermaid? I've only seen it in documentaries before!"
"This time I really made a lot of money!"
"..."
A group of people turned on the camera function of the address book and took pictures.
The skinny man suddenly shouted to the crowd: "This man wants to steal the mermaid from our restaurant, please notify the inspection team!"
