Chapter 460: The Growth God of the Sea and the Little Pearl (42)
As soon as the name was uttered, even though the red fish looked a little reluctant, it still swam over.
He rubbed Ruan Guannan's fingertips gently.
Ruan Guannan was very surprised, "It's really you, little guy?"
Ruan Guannan was silent for a moment as he looked at the red fish in front of him that was so strong that it could hardly swim.
"If it weren't for the brown spot on your belly, I would hardly have recognized you."
When he moved in a hurry, Ruan Guannan released it. He didn't expect to see it again today.
She looked at the blue mermaid not far away, a little incredulous, "You found it?"
Xuan Mo stretched out his hand helplessly, "It came here on its own."
Maybe this little red fish had felt Xuan Mo's breath, and as soon as it returned to the sea, it stuck to him shamelessly.
If Xuan Mo hadn't seen the familiar shell on its fin, he would have crushed it impatiently.
It is smart. It knows the dangers of the sea and knows how to use connections to find a supporter.
Xuan Mo raised it in the Temple of Poseidon.
Before he knew it, this guy had eaten like this.
Xuan Mo was a little annoyed that it attracted Xiao Zhenzhu's attention, so he waved his hand and slapped the annoying guy away.
The rest of the luminous fish once again held the beads in their mouths and created a "pearl rain" for Ruan Guannan.
Ruan Guannan was still amazed by what he saw.
Suddenly, a purer and more dazzling bead appeared in front of her, instantly attracting Ruan Guannan's full attention.
This bead is about the size of a pearl.
Although the appearance is also white, this bead is more transparent and has no impurities at all.
If you look closely, you can faintly see it emitting a faint blue light, which is particularly eye-catching.
Just looking at it, Ruan Guannan felt a joy from the bottom of his heart.
Xuan Mo has already prepared a chain for it, which is made of polished blue topaz.
It has been tempered by divine power and is extremely fine, yet extremely strong.
He brushed the hair off the girl's neck, lowered his eyes, and carefully and gently put it on Ruan Guannan's neck.
The neck is snow-white and slender, and the beads are as bright and smooth as white jade, which is extremely beautiful.
Xuan Mo's deep blue eyes looked at her gently, and the emotions contained in them were so strong that they seemed to drown her.
His voice was deep and solemn, "Little Pearl..."
Ruan Guannan also looked back at him, "Hmm?"
The two of them looked at each other and remained silent for a long time.
Xuan Mo's eyes were deep, and he suddenly chuckled, "Are you happy today?"
Nguyen Guan Nam: …
She almost said "I do" and now she gets this?
She was a little annoyed and looked down at the beads around her neck, not wanting to pay attention to him.
Ruan Guannan did not notice the loneliness and bitterness that flashed across Xuan Mo's eyes as he looked at her.
Ruan Guannan gently stroked the bead that was heating up with his tentacles, his eyes full of love, but he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity,
“Is this the pearl you mentioned?”
Xuan Mo looked at the beads with a hint of melancholy and nostalgia in his eyes, and hummed softly.
"Do you want to know the story about 'it'?"
Xuan Mo spoke softly, and Ruan Guannan was affected by the depressed mood lingering around him and nodded subconsciously.
Xuan Mo reached out and grabbed the back of her head, then lowered his head and rested it on her forehead.
Their foreheads touched, and a faint light emanated, enveloping the two of them.
When Ruan Guannan opened his eyes again, the scene around him had changed.
But she could clearly sense that what she saw was just an illusion.
In other words, it is a memory hidden deep in Xuan Mo's heart.
The people in the scene are wearing ancient costumes, but most of them are made of coarse linen, and the shoes on their feet are also made of woven straw.
The man, with his arms bared, gritted his teeth and pushed the boat into the sea, apparently preparing to go out to sea.
The woman works at home with her child.
The whole picture looks full of warm and homely atmosphere.
What surprised her most was that there were several blue mermaids lying or sitting on the rocks not far away, lazily basking in the sun.
The fishermen waved and shouted towards the rocks, and the mermaids jumped into the water one by one, circling around the fishing boats happily.
The weather at sea is ever-changing, and when encountering storms, these mermaids are the fishermen's lifeline.
Because of their existence, fishermen on the seashore can return home safely every time.
Mermaids have saved countless people.
In all the ancestral halls of the coastal fishing villages, mermaids are worshipped and called "sea gods."
Over time, these mermaids really developed magical powers and used these powers to save more people.
Ruan Guannan was surprised to find that thousands of years ago, humans and mermaids really lived in harmony.
Time flies, and mermaids and humans have been living in peace.
The scene flashed by, and soon, Ruan Guannan's attention was attracted by a little mermaid that had just emerged from the water.
His eyes were clear and as blue as the sky and the sea, and even his tail was the dark blue that was infinitely close to the deep sea.
He followed a mermaid couple, his small figure swinging his tail hard, trying to keep up with their speed.
In the end, he was helplessly thrown away.
He climbed up the reef with loss and difficulty, even his tail looked droopy.
Ruan Guannan moved closer and looked at the little guy in front of him closely, his eyes full of surprise and love.
She reached out and touched his little head invisibly, her voice cheerful,
"It turns out that Ah Mo was so cute when he was little!"
Ruan Guannan playfully held his little face with his hands and rubbed it again and again, but unfortunately he could not feel anything.
Little Amo's tail slapped on the rocks again and again, and he sighed softly.
When he heard the gentle call from behind, his eyes suddenly lit up.
With a 'splash', it dived into the water and swam happily towards the mermaid couple not far away.
Accompanied by the gorgeous sunset, the family swam towards the deep sea together.
Ruan Guannan watched quietly, the smile on his lips unable to fade away.
Blink again, and the scene changes rapidly.
The fishing village had completely changed its appearance, and those people who had used to have such good intentions now looked ferocious.
The harpoons pierced the mermaids' bodies without hesitation, and nets were used to catch them in large numbers and bring them ashore.
Ruan Guannan's face changed drastically and he looked at the scene in disbelief.
From the conversation between those people, she roughly understood something.
It turned out that the emperor of this country was terminally ill, and the imperial teacher, whom he had always relied on, was really at a loss and finally came up with a stupid idea.
Legend has it that mermaid meat has the miraculous effect of "reviving the dead and turning their bones into flesh". Eating it can also prolong one's life and even grant immortality to the lucky ones.
So the emperor issued an edict, offering a large reward for mermaids, and even those who caught more could be promoted to higher positions.
Once the imperial edict came down, it took less than three days for people to go from initial hesitation to final decision.
They waved their harpoons and stabbed at the 'sea god' they believed in.
They are completely crazy.
The mermaids became the biggest victims of this disaster.
They hid deep under the sea and never dared to show up again.
The seabed is also not calm.
The scene in front of Ruan Guannan was very familiar; it was the Temple of Poseidon from thousands of years ago.
At this time, the Temple of Poseidon was in chaos.
As members of the sea god clan, blue mermaids are all gifted with magical powers.
However, these abilities vary based on talent. The closer the color of the tail is to the sea, the higher the talent.
It is most likely to be granted the highest divine power and become the leader of the sea god clan, or even the entire mermaid clan.
The birth of Xuan Mo means the heavy responsibility that he will bear in the future.
But before he could truly grow up, the most serious internal strife broke out among the Sea God Clan, and everyone wanted to seize the position of 'Sea God' and obtain the highest divine power.
Now faced with internal and external troubles, the entire mermaid tribe is beginning to be in a state of panic.
Ruan Guannan was anxious, but he could only watch the situation develop.
She saw Amo nestling in his mother's arms, watching his father being seriously injured.
The two of them took Amo into the deepest part of the Temple of Poseidon, drained all their strength, and sealed the young and ignorant Amo in the Temple of Poseidon.
Xuan Mo desperately reached out to them, but he only had time to catch the tears that were sliding down his mother's eyes.
One white and one red.
White represents the happiness that one desires, and red represents extreme sadness.
Xuan Mo watched his parents embrace each other and disappear into the sea.
And he fell into darkness for thousands of years.
Ruan Guannan's eyes were blurred with tears and he felt extremely heartbroken.
Before she could even touch the small figure, she was pulled out of the world of memory.
Ruan Guannan stared blankly at the person whose nose touched hers, her eyelashes blinking helplessly.
The tears are hazy and beautiful.
She climbed onto Xuan Mo's neck and buried her head in his face. Her voice was hoarse and sweet as she called him over and over again.
"Amo...Amo..."
Xuan Mo's heart was melted by her and he licked the tears from the corners of her eyes emotionally.
He couldn't help himself, and he tilted his head and kissed her lips, tenderly and lovingly.
He kissed her delicately and tenderly, feeling her.
He responded to her call softly against her lips, "Yes, I'm here."
