How to become a mermaid

Chapter 318
Hearing that Caesar asked him to keep it a secret again, Shamanel raised his eyebrows, feeling that there are quite a lot of little secrets hidden in his grandfather.

But...he really wanted to know this secret!

Shamanleer nodded seriously, and said, "I promise not to say anything!"

When he said this, he quickly glanced at Caesar with his eyes, trying to use his "golden eyes" to see what was wrong with Caesar.

This kind of thing that needs to be kept secret is likely to be something unspeakable about Caesar, but he doesn't want to tell other fish, so he chooses to be self-sufficient and learn skills to treat himself.

However, after Shamanlael scanned it, he found that Caesar was full of greenery from tail to head, and there was nothing wrong with it no matter how you looked at it.

It doesn't seem like there is a problem somewhere, am I guessing wrong?
Just when Samantel was puzzled, Caesar waved to him and said, "Little fish, you go outside with me, the two of us will talk alone!"

"Oh~" Shamanlaer's tone rose, and he became more and more interested in Caesar's little secret.

He followed Caesar and swam out of the algae ball, away from the fish to behind a secluded reef.

Seeing that there were no fish around, Samantel couldn't help asking: "Can we talk now?"

Caesar pursed his lips, and slowly extended his hand to his head.

He always wore a hood over his head and never took it off.

Samantel always thought that Caesar was wearing this to keep out the cold, but when the hood was lifted, he realized that he was very wrong.

As the most beautiful race in the sea—a member of the mermaids, Caesar has an impeccably handsome face, a nearly perfect body, and a pair of charming golden eyes, as dazzling as golden silk. blond.

However…!
Just on the top of Caesar's head, there is a barren desert, which is as barren and refreshing as a barren land that has never been cultivated.

The smooth scalp was directly exposed to the sea water, and even shone with oil, like a mirror under the sun.

"Zheng!" Caesar's head lit up.

He's glowing, his bald head is glowing!

It would be better if he was completely bald, but the hair around him was thick and smooth, and only the middle part was clean, as if it had been forgotten by the hair.

Under the strong contrast, Caesar's entire painting style looks wrong.

A mediterranean mermaid…

"Pfft..." Seeing this picture, Shamanlael covered his mouth forcefully.

He wanted to hold back, but his hands were shaking all the time, and his body was twitching uncontrollably.

Finally, he couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, and let out a wild laugh: "Pfft...hahahaha!"

"Ahahahaha! It's so funny, how... how can there be a mermaid bald!"

"It shouldn't be... Hahaha... Our mermaid hair is a good medicine for baldness! Caesar, what did you do to your hair... Hahaha...!"

Shamanlael laughed twitchingly, completely ignoring Caesar's flushed face.

Hearing the ear-piercing laughter, Caesar roared with embarrassment and anger, "I knew I shouldn't have told you!"

Roughly, he pulled his hood back on, momentarily covering the gleaming top of his skull.

The light faded, but the laughter continued.

Shamanlell laughed for a full 2 ​​minutes, and his stomach was about to hurt from laughing before he recovered from the impact of the bald mermaid.

With a lingering smile on his face, he smiled and asked Caesar: "Is this the reason why you learn potion making?"

"..." Caesar nodded silently.

Compared with being almost added by the green dragon man, baldness is more difficult for him to accept.

Since he was a small fish, he was taught by his mother to cherish his beauty, always keep his scales shiny and his hair smooth, and be the most beautiful boy in the sea.

However...he's bald!

Caesar felt sorry for his dead mother every time he saw the shiny top of his head.

He was unfilial and failed to protect his hair!
"In short, you know this and I know it, no third fish knows!"

"If you leak the secret, I'll pluck out the hair on your head one by one, and see how you find females in the future!" Caesar looked at Shamanlael with a serious expression, with a hint of threat in his eyes.

Baldness is his biggest secret. For this secret, he lived alone, wandered all over the world, worked hard on potion technology, and he... put in countless efforts!
Even if it is a grandson, leaking secrets must be "dead"!
"Hiss..." Hearing such a vicious threat from Caesar, Shamanlael sucked in a mouthful of cold water.

He nodded again and again and said, "I promise not to say anything!"

"But...how on earth are you bald? Shouldn't you be bald from birth?" After the guarantee, Shamanlael asked Caesar curiously.

"Of course not, I used to have a lot of hair!" Caesar pointed to his head, and said excitedly: "When my mother was still alive, she often praised my hair, saying that they are extremely beautiful!"

"When I was young, I used this blond hair to attract many females. In the end, it was your grandmother's fish-like charm that attracted me, and I chose to be with her!"

When Caesar was young, he was indeed a well-known mermaid. Many females were attracted to him and wanted to have small fish with him.

It's a pity that good luck made fish, and he became bald when he was old.

"Maybe... it's because you're not young anymore?" Shamanlell blinked and asked tentatively.

In Caesar's surprised eyes, he spread his hands and said calmly: "You know, many creatures will go bald when they get older, maybe you are just like them..."

Hearing what Shamanlael said, Caesar was angry and annoyed, and retorted loudly: "I'm not that old yet!"

"I'm in my prime now, and I'll have no problem living another three or four hundred years!"

"Ah..." Hearing Caesar's rebuttal, Shamanlaer was taken aback, and muttered, "Then you're pretty good at it..."

Alicia is Caesar's fifth child, and she is about 150 years old this year. A mermaid's growth period is about 100 years. Even if Caesar started to sow seeds when he was a hundred years old, he should be six or seven hundred years old. up.

The average mermaid is an old fish at this age, and it's time to get ready to eat some good deck boards. I didn't expect Caesar to be able to dance for hundreds of years.

It's really a long life!

Although Caesar didn't know what dog meant, but he felt something was wrong when he heard Shamanlaer's tone, and subconsciously retorted: "I'm not serious!"

"Anyway, I'm bald not because I'm getting old, but because of something else!"

Shamanel shrugged indifferently, and said again: "Maybe it's because I've been with you for too long, your hair is getting tired and you have your own thoughts, maybe you want to leave you and go wandering! "

"But they can't leave without saying goodbye, and don't come back to see me for decades!" Caesar replied angrily.

Hearing this sentence, Samantel immediately grasped the point, and said in surprise, "You've been bald for decades?"

Caesar: "..."

Damn... I slipped my tongue!
"That's really pitiful!" Shamanlael looked at Caesar with a little pity in his eyes.

A lifetime of human beings lasts for decades, whether it is bald or not, it will pass quickly, but Caesar still has to live for hundreds of years, how can such a long period of time be endured!

"Papa papa!" Patting Caesar's shoulder vigorously, Shamanleer said sincerely: "I am deeply sympathetic to what happened to you, and I will try to find a way to help you!"

"Snap!" Hearing Shamanlaer say he wanted to help himself, Caesar grabbed his arm and asked eagerly, "Really?"

"Of course! I always keep my word!" Shamanleer nodded affirmatively.

From now on, Caesar is no longer Alicia's wronged father in his eyes, but a poor bald fish.

Hey, it's all poor to think about it...

There should be no second bald mermaid like Caesar in this world, could he be a genetic mutation?
Wait...wait a minute...!
Shamanleir suddenly thought of a terrible thing - baldness can be hereditary!
If Caesar's baldness is caused by a genetic mutation, then... as Caesar's grandson, he may also inherit such a gene.

Then, in the future, I will also...

Thinking of this, Samantel's face turned green.

No, this kind of thing must not happen!
"Caesar! Come with me now, I must find out why you are bald!"

Grabbing Caesar's arm, Samantel strenuously swam towards the seaweed ball.

....................................

The sun was setting below the sea level, and it was ten o'clock in the evening.

After nightfall in the Arctic, most of the marine pharmacists had already left the seaweed balls to look for food or return to the penguin tribe to rest with Zorro.

Shamanlael hasn't rested yet, he's still underwater.

After delivering today's mermaid sand to the two water ghost fish, he took Caesar to a secluded place and began to study how to cure baldness.

"I borrowed a potion notebook from Planck and Zorro each. There are thousands of potion recipes recorded on it, dozens of them are related to hair. Let's try boldly. I believe there will always be one It can cure your baldness!" Holding a potion notebook in one hand, Shamanlael said to Caesar with a serious expression.

He borrowed these two notebooks for a random reason, and he had to return them in a few days.

Time is running out, Samantel plans to meet with Caesar every day from today to study how to grow hair for bald men.

"Then what are you waiting for, open it and have a look!" Caesar was a little more eager than Shaman Lair, urging him to open it.

"Shua, shua, shua..." The pages of the book were flipped, and Shamanlell opened Zorro's notebook, and soon found the part related to hair.

[A long time ago, hair was just a means of keeping creatures from the cold, but as time went by, creatures gradually acquired aesthetic concepts, and their views on hair also changed.

Clogged hair follicles, hair loss, dull coat color, etc., all affect the image of creatures and cause physical and mental harm to them.

In order to help these creatures troubled by hair problems, I devoted myself to research and finally came up with an effective treatment plan. 】

After watching Zoro's eloquent and confident speeches, Shamanlaer was overjoyed, and said to Caesar beside him: "Caesar, you are saved!"

"It looks very professional!" Caesar nodded and said with certainty.

Finding a page related to "hair loss", Shaman Laier read the above content word by word:
"There are many reasons for hair loss, such as genetics, excessive stress, lack of sleep, malnutrition, poor water quality for shampooing... etc. To treat hair loss, you must first find the right cause..."

After reading the list of causes, Samantel blinked and asked Caesar, "What kind of cause do you think caused you?"

Caesar shook his head and replied, "I don't know either! I usually eat well, sleep well, and I'm not depressed. I don't have any worries except my baldness!"

As a mermaid, I don't need to stay up late to work overtime, and I don't need to worry about the next month's mortgage. How could it be possible to be bald due to overwork?

Shamanleir thought carefully for a while, and asked with some uncertainty: "You usually wash your hair once a few days, what do you use?"

"Once every two days, wash with foam algae and clean water!" Caesar replied seriously.

"The living habits are not bad... Could it be the cause of endocrine disorders?" Shaman Lair muttered a little puzzled.

He cast his eyes on the top of Caesar's head and asked, "Can I see where you're bald?"

"..." After a moment of silence, Caesar nodded.

The so-called first-time familiarity, he was quite embarrassed to show his bald head for the first time, but since Shamenlaer had seen it all, he didn't ink any more, took off his hood and put his head in front of Shamanlael .

Light can teach people, this is Shaman Lear's evaluation of Caesar's baldness.

After touching it with his hands, he found that there was not even a stubble in this place, and the hair follicles were even less visible. The whole scalp was like a big mirror, delicate and smooth to the touch.

If this skin grows on other people's faces, they will probably be able to laugh out loud in their dreams.

However it is the scalp, where the hair grows.

"Could it be that your skin is too hard, so that the hair can't get out?" Samantel poked the top of Caesar's head with his nails, and found that the scalp is still hard now, and his nails couldn't scratch it. Make a mark.

The so-called head iron should be referring to this situation.

"It's not that exaggerated, it's not that the whole head is bald, can't the hair in other places come out?" Caesar also touched it with his hands, and didn't feel anything wrong.

"Just in case... Let's try in this direction first!" Shamanlael said seriously.

He looked back at Zoro's potion notes and found two potions suitable for this situation.

【Oil Removing Hair Tonic: This potion is specially developed for oily scalp, which can easily remove oil and solve the problem of hair loss caused by blocked hair follicles. 】

The scalp feels so slippery, it must be because of the oil, and the oil is gone!
【Strengthening Hair Potion: This potion can enhance the toughness of hair, allowing every hair to grow tenaciously, making it impossible to pull it out. 】

Since you suspect that the scalp is too hard, then strengthen the hair and let it fight the scalp to the death!
"Okay, I've decided to make these two potions. You can find other fish for ingredients, and I'll make the potions!" Closing Zoro's potion note, Shamanlell said confidently.

"No problem, it's decided! We'll gather here tomorrow night!" Infected by his confidence, Caesar nodded solemnly.
