What is the first reaction of a drowning person?Qu Tong didn't know, but anyway, he wouldn't be holding his breath, besides, he was still afraid of water, the fear in his heart suddenly rushed to the top of his head, and his hands and feet couldn't help thumping.
He heard the sound of someone entering the water, and he didn't know if it was Secret.A, but the extreme fear in his heart made him unable to identify it carefully.
Qu Tong wanted to calm down and tried to open his eyes, but when he opened them, he felt cold water rushing up to the door, forcing him to close it tightly, choking the water in his trachea, causing him a headache. He felt that he was starting to Tinnitus, lack of oxygen to the brain, heart can not bear the load, as if dying.
die?
He was confused, his thoughts were chaotic, but his mind was full of this word.
Just like that, when I felt that I was about to become conscious, my body was lifted up by something, and an arm wrapped around my waist was very thin but extremely powerful.
Did someone save him?Although he was dazed and almost fainted, he could clearly feel that it was definitely not Secret.A who saved him.
"That's our man, I hope the patriarch doesn't mind, let him go back to the team." Qu Tong heard the voice of Secret. Secret.A still had a rare anxiety in his eyes. It could be seen that Secret.A was very worried about him. He said that he didn't mind, but actually hoped that the man would let Qu Tong return to the team.
However, the mermaid here is indifferent.
"I've made it very clear that humans cannot touch the water of the Rin River. He and you have both polluted our Rin River. How will this be settled?"
Qu Tong raised his head and looked at the speaking mermaid, which was the one surrounded by the mermaids before. He guessed that he should be the leader of these mermaids, but what did Secret.A say just now?Patriarch?
He has an ominous premonition, he can feel that the mermaid who is holding him at the moment, that is, the patriarch in Secret.A's mouth, very, very, doesn't like humans, and he doesn't like Secret.A, it seems that he is disgusted Degree.
Although it was Qin Rui's fault, it was himself who became a burden and caused trouble.
Qu Tong was in a bad mood.
Because of myself, let them be at a disadvantage.
"He doesn't know water. We remember the patriarch's life-saving grace. You can ask for anything, and we will do it if we can. As for the rule that humans can't touch the water in the Rinhe River, I also know what is needed. We can negotiate compensation."
The mermaid patriarch smiled sarcastically, and teased, "I've known you for so long, but I've never seen you talk so much, why? This man..." He glanced at Qu Tong, who was in a panic, "...with you What's the relationship?"
Qu Tong's expression became even worse when he heard this. Not to mention Qin Rui, Quan En and the others stood aside and watched. Although he didn't mind letting Quan En and the others know the real relationship between him and Secret.A, it is definitely not now. .
Compared with him, Secret.A was much calmer, just a simple astonishment, and then returned to his usual expression, "He is my man."
Qu Tong's head "hummed", regretting why he didn't faint just now, and insisted on witnessing what is happening now.
Although Secret.A's answer sounds ambiguous, it is more like an admission of certain things, whether it is literally or otherwise.
This counts as being out of the closet, right?
Qu Tong heard the mermaid who was hugging him sneer, and glanced at Qu Tong meaningfully, "I can tell."
The water was icy cold, and Qu Tong's teeth were chattering from the cold, but now, he felt his face was hot. He had never experienced such an embarrassing moment again, and it was very uncomfortable.
Secret.A didn't take it seriously, but still looked at the mermaid patriarch, the mermaid patriarch moved to the side of the boat where Secret.A was standing, Qu Tong was shocked, he didn't even feel the movement, and he was in front of Secret.A in an instant , so fast?
Is it a trait of a mermaid?
He put Qu Tong on the boat, and Qu Tong returned to his soul immediately after leaving the water, curled up in the middle of the boat, saw the water surface, his eyes were still dim, and his mind was in a daze.
Secret.A took his hand and let him stand up successfully. Qu Tong felt the eyes of everyone and all the mermaids were on him. He tried to restrain his fear and stood beside Secret.A, with his side Couldn't help leaning against Secret.A, the two seemed extremely close.
Qu Tong didn't want to, but he really couldn't stand alone. It's okay not to enter the water. After entering the water, he completely lost his previous calmness.
The mermaid patriarch said "tsk tsk" twice, "Let's put this matter aside for now, we'll talk about it later, you are so motivating people to come here this time, you must not be looking for us to chat, right?"
"Yes." Secret.A's expression remained unchanged, "A tragedy happened in Mingyang Town, and something was found at the scene, which is related to the mermaid tribe. We represent humans to negotiate with the nobles."
The mermaid patriarch snorted coldly, turned around and dived into the water, and the rest of the mermaids behind him also dived into the water, disappeared, and the water surface rippled.
Under Secret.A's order, Cen Xu started rowing, and the boat moved forward little by little, while Qu Tong held onto Secret.A by his side tightly, not wanting to look at other people's eyes.
He was like a light on his back, but he didn't have such a heavy burden in his heart at the beginning. A person was stripped naked and placed in front of everyone, and he got used to being naked. He is now, since there is no way out, why not think about it The way back is fine.
The boat quickly arrived at the shore, and Secret.A got off the boat first, and came back to support Qu Tong, who couldn't help but his legs were weak. Qu Tong didn't bother to pretend to be reserved, and we'll talk about the future, he held Secret.A With the hand that came over, he got off the boat steadily.
Secret.A explained to him that once the Rin River is over, you can walk about 1000 meters to reach the mermaid tribe. Mermaids like water, but they don’t stay in the water all the time. They tend to learn from humans in recent years. , the usual living habits of human beings, the rules of doing things in human society, and even the evolution of appearance are getting closer and closer to human beings.
"Why?" After leaving the water, Qu Tong basically returned to normal, "Mermaids are so powerful, why do they still learn from humans everywhere?"
"Because they won't underestimate themselves." Seeing that he was much better, Secret.A felt relieved, but he didn't let go of Qu Tong's hand. Right now, Qu Tong didn't notice this problem, so he continued: "Mermaids know their strengths, and they will face up to their weaknesses. Remember what I told you before? They have faith, and people with faith are very difficult to deal with."
The two people's conversations were not loud, and only each other could hear clearly. Therefore, in the eyes of those behind them, Secret.A and Qu Tong not only recognized each other's status, but also planned to be blatant and stop covering it up.
They all felt a little strange but also a little embarrassed. Everyone was thinking about something. Almost no one paid attention to the bad eyesight. Qin Rui, who was walking in the team, why did he say almost?Because Qin Rui didn't even notice that Quan En, who was walking at the end of the line, was silently observing him.
"You found the scales of my people at the murder scene?"
The mermaid patriarch looked at Secret.A and asked playfully.
Qu Tong felt it, and Xi He thought it was a joke when he heard it. Xi He is the name of the mermaid patriarch, and Secret.A told him just now.
"Yes." Secret.A replied directly and positively.
"Impossible, mermaids don't eat humans at all." Xi He directly denied his words, and then snorted, "We won't eat such unhealthy food."
Qu Tong imagined the scene and got goosebumps all over his body. Although Xi He denied that the murder had anything to do with them, he still shuddered when he called human beings "unhealthy food".
Secret.A was not unyielding either, he gave pertinent advice.
"That's why someone provoked it. Since this is harmful to the long-term peace between mermaids and humans, we both have an obligation to solve it together and find out the truth."
Xi He had no reason to refuse.
