Shendou Continent

Chapter 166

"Since you've woken up, human, you should leave here too." After the chat was almost over, Mrs. Lan also issued an order to evict Chen Xiaodong.Chen Xiaodong survived the catastrophe and saw the Merman again, he should have been happy in his heart, but he was also disappointed when he returned without success like this.So, he looked at Mrs. Lan, wanting to leave but staying, hesitant to speak.

"I don't expect you to reciprocate, but you are not allowed to take any of the things here, and you are not allowed to reveal the fact that you have seen us mermaids, otherwise, I will not let you go." Madam Lan's eyes lit up, and she said seriously , she should have guessed what Chen Xiaodong was thinking.

After hearing this, Chen Xiaodong hurriedly calmed down and said: "Madam Lan's life-saving grace, I will never forget it. Don't worry, I am definitely not an ungrateful person. This time I came to the South China Sea. I wanted to take the shark's teardrops and your dragon silk, but I have fulfilled half of my wish to see you, and I can't be too greedy, I will follow the warning carefully."

"In that case, Honglin, you are responsible for sending this young master back." Mrs. Lan said to Honglin, then turned around, took out a shiny pill and gave it to Chen Xiaodong, saying: "Take it, just let me eat it." Go to sleep for a while, and you will wake up after a while, and then you should be on an island with a boat passing by." Madam Lan didn't speak loudly, but Chen Xiaodong clearly felt the huge energy contained in these words , full of majesty.This Mrs. Lan must be unfathomable.

When Chen Xiaodong took the pill and was about to take it, he found that the pill was very familiar, so he looked at it carefully.Suddenly, thoughts flashed in his mind, he thought of something, and said: "This pill is so familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere."

"Oh? This kind of pill is called Shame Wan. It's similar to your ecstasy pill. It's mixed with our tears, so only we sharks have it." Mrs. Lan replied with a smile on her face, as if there was no medicine at all. I don't believe Chen Xiaodong's words, I just think he is making excuses.

"But I have seen it." Chen Xiaodong said with certainty, "That's right! I found it in the package that Grandpa treasured!"

"Oh, is that so? Then you're talking about how your grandpa got this Shame Wan?" Mrs. Lan continued to ask disdainfully.

"I remember my grandfather once told me that about 60 years ago, before my father was born, he went to the South China Sea with several fighters in the county, and he also went to find you sharks. Oh, my grandfather is also a fighter, Moreover, he is very good at swimming, and he is well-known all over the world. He went away for several years before returning." Chen Xiaodong seemed to remember something, and slowly talked about his grandfather.

"Your grandfather has been to the South China Sea? Has he come to look for sharks?" Only then did Mrs. Lan become serious.She looked at the appearance of the person in front of her again, and it seemed that the figure from the past reappeared in her mind.

"Yes. He married my grandma after he came back from South China Sea, and gave birth to my father after that."

"Is there a big black mole on the right side of your grandfather's face?" Mrs. Lan asked with a glimmer of hope.

"The right face? I kind of forgot. I was only 5 years old when my grandfather left, and I can hardly remember what he looked like." Chen Xiaodong said awkwardly but honestly.

After hearing Chen Xiaodong's answer, Madam Lan was a little discouraged.But she quickly remembered something, and continued to ask: "Then you always know your grandfather's name, right?"

"Grandpa's name taboo? It seems that those grandparents call him Alu."

"You just said your surname is Chen?" Mrs. Lan was a little excited when she heard that, her fish tail had already straightened, and she supported her body to stand up.The red scale on the side was about to see off the guests, but also stopped at this time.

"Yes! My name is Chen Xiaodong, Erdong Chen, small in size, Dongfang in Dongfang. My grandfather may be called Chen Alu, or Chen Lu."

"Chen Alu? Chen Lu? Is it possible to call him Dalu Chen?" Mrs. Lan asked eagerly again.

"It's also possible. Our daily address is relatively simple. Just add the word 'A' to the last word of the name."

"That's right, it means they look so similar!" Mrs. Lan excitedly grabbed Chen Xiaodong's hand, which shocked Chen Xiaodong.He didn't understand why Mrs. Lan suddenly became agitated when his grandfather was mentioned.

But he soon understood, because Mrs. Lan told him a story about the past.

Although the sharks have been extinct for hundreds of years, the legends on the mainland have always existed, so some people have always insisted on searching for them in the South China Sea. More than 60 years ago, a group of fighters also came here.Although there are quite a few people who visit the South China Sea, there are very few who are as persistent as them.They searched the sea and the island for two full years before finally discovering the traces of the sharks.

It was a sunny day, and on the island called Haixin Island, a group of sharks were playing.And those mermaids who are playing are mostly children, they don't have thick and hard scales like adult mermaids, and they don't have as advanced cultivation as human fighters.Therefore, when a group of humans surrounded them from all directions, they had no resistance and were captured alive.

A few people headed by the fighters began to imprison and force these little mermaids to weave dragon silk, and beat them cruelly to take tears.Those little mermaids were tortured so much that their lives were worse than death, and their suffering was unspeakable.And this brutal method also aroused dissatisfaction among the fighters. Several people with a sense of justice in this group of fighters couldn't stand it anymore and demanded the release of the sharks.But the leader, Kanyi, just like that, a fierce conflict broke out among the fighters.

In a great battle, several fighters with a sense of justice were almost wiped out, and only one escaped.Taking advantage of the chaos in the battle situation, he also quietly released those little sharks.Later, this group of mermen returned to their home in the deep sea and brought adult mermen to avenge them, killing those brutal fighters, but they did not find the person who rescued them.Later, an older girl among the group of little sharks began to look for him, and after seven days and nights, she finally found him on a deserted island.

At this time, he was dressed in rags and looked haggard. He couldn't go back to the mainland, so he had to survive on a deserted island.In order to repay his life-saving grace, the female shark stayed on the island and accompanied him together.He taught her human language, human knowledge, and human allusions; she found food for him, wove clothes for him, and brought him pearls, which were also her tears.

Humans and sharks have different paths, but at this moment, they lead to the same goal.

They spent a whole year on the island.Finally one day, she proposed to take him to the Shaman Kingdom to see her parents and brothers.He was stunned when he heard this, not knowing what they were talking about, but still silently nodded in agreement.In the place where the sharks live, it is not allowed to take people there, even if you really take people secretly, you must not let the humans know the route, otherwise it will bring disaster to the sharks.So, she gave him a shark bead.He didn't take it right away, saying that he would think about it for three days, and she agreed.She went home and planned to pick him up three days later.

Time passes day by day, the tide ebbs and flows, the clouds roll and the clouds clear. It seems that everything is changing, but in fact nothing has changed.On the third day, he seemed to have resigned himself to his fate, and seemed to have figured it out. He took the Shark Bead early in the morning, and waited silently by the shore for her arrival.

However, what came before her was a fishing boat that happened to pass by.When he saw the fishing boat, he cried out excitedly, and they also found him... At the end of the story, the man followed the boat and took nothing with him except the shark bead, and he never came back.

A full 60 years have passed, and the female mermaid has been guarding near the deserted island, but she has never seen him again.The female mermaid is Mrs. Lan, and the hero of the story is named Chen Dalu.
