Diary of Raising a Mermaid
Chapter 14
Lance had a dream.
He did not become a mermaid in the dream.
Everything that became a mermaid—
Encountering huge tentacles, pulling the elf-like black-tailed mermaid inside the coral bones to escape from prison, chatting with the stupid giant jellyfish, in the end, when Lance wakes up, everything disappears.
These were all strange dreams Lance had made in a muddle after being drunk.
When the dream woke up, Lance rubbed his sore temples and sat up from the bed foolishly.
Recalling everything he did and the creatures he met in his sleep, Lance could only sigh that his imagination was not so rich.
Next, Lance wanted to be sober in the sea breeze, he stood up in a daze, staggered to the door of the room, and opened the door—
The sky outside the cruise ship was dark and heavy with heavy rain, and the scenery in front of me was as if smeared with blood.
The screams and howls in the ears are endless.
A huge black figure stood in front of the cruise ship, and when Lance watched it, it slowly turned around, revealing a huge mouthpart.
Inside the mouthparts are layers of sharp teeth. The sea monster bit the head of the cruise ship. The so-called indestructible steel is as fragile as paper in the sea monster's teeth. It tore the cruise ship open, making a harsh scratching sound.
Lance didn't stand still, slipped from the deck, and fell into the sea.
In the endless sea, the salty sea water instantly poured into his mouth and nose, filling his lungs, and the feeling of suffocation gradually made Lance struggle constantly, wanting to struggle to swim up.
However, as Lance worked hard to move up, he suddenly felt his feet caught.
He looked down subconsciously and saw a scene he would never forget—
The black-tailed mermaid swims out of the shadow of the deep sea. He is like a ghost, pulling his ankle, and the tail fin behind him is floating in the ocean, like ink.
Seeing Lance looking at him, the black-tailed mermaid smiled at Lance, her bright red lips curled up.
Afterwards, the black-tailed mermaid took his feet and, ignoring his yelling, dragged him into the abyss.
Lance woke up from the nightmare sweating, panting quickly, and then he quickly understood the source of his nightmare—
He and Wencer slept on a stone bed, and Wencer was holding him in his arms very domineeringly, and the fish tails of the two were entangled, all of which explained the strength in the dream very well. Where did it come from.
Lance looked at the hand that hugged his waist, a little speechless.
Here is a lair that Wencer found for him yesterday. There is a stone with a flat surface inside. After Wencer used seaweed a few times at random, it was turned into a bed of stone by Wencer.
Wenser said that since there is no sea anemone here, he is afraid that after Lance falls asleep at night, there will be nothing to fix him, and he will drift away with the current. Therefore, Wenser has to hold Lance when he sleeps so that Lance will not be caught. I accidentally lost myself.
Lance felt that there was something wrong with this statement, but after thinking about it for a while, he agreed.
To a certain extent, it’s really not as comfortable to fall asleep in Winsor’s arms if the stone bed is hard, not to mention the lack of fixation. The feeling of powerlessness floating in the sea can easily cause insomnia. Therefore, Lance did not refuse Wen. At Se's proposal, the last two mermaids twisted together and lay on the bed in an extremely awkward position, while Lance fell into a deep sleep.
"Ok?"
Winsor woke up, he tensed his arms subconsciously, and Rodrance almost didn't catch his breath, and let out a whining noise:
"Ai—ya—"
Wencer woke up, he let go of his arm, let go of Lance, then kissed Lance on the cheek, and asked:
"Did you sleep well?"
Lance let out a cry, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Winsor: "..."
He has a guilty conscience.
"Have you had a nightmare?"
Lance felt strange.
He felt that Winser had been wrong since he got out of the coral bones. The more they went up, the more nervous Wincer became. These days it was more like something annoying happened to him. From time to time he would look empty and his pupils would be dizzy.
Wencer sat up, he covered his forehead, closed his eyes for a long time, and then said softly to Lance:
"They started again..."
"Who?"
Lance asked.
"It's nothing."
After a long time, Wincer returned to his normal appearance, he faintly replied, and then took the lead to swim out.
"Let's go, swim for another two days, we should be able to reach Sunset Bay."
Lance waved his tail, he immediately swam up, followed Wencer, and asked eagerly:
"Really? You can be there the day after tomorrow? Then, there...will there be humans?"
Wencer stopped abruptly. He turned around, grabbed Lance's arm, with an angry expression on his face, and asked:
"What do you want to do when you go to Sunset Bay?"
Lance didn't understand why Wenser suddenly got into trouble. This was the first time Wenser was angry in front of him. He was stunned and stammered:
"I don't like the deep sea."
"You lied to me."
Wencer looked at Lance, and he suddenly said to Lance coldly as if it had been a different person.
Lance was speechless for a while. He was indeed deceiving Wencer, because from a standpoint, the position between humans and sea monsters is now opposite. He really dare not explain to Wencer that he is only a personal fish on the outside, but inside. He was a human being, so he was eager to go ashore, and wanted to figure out why he became a mermaid.
He has no malice towards Wencer, and Wencer has no malice towards him. They maintain this relationship and continue, okay?
Lance hesitated, and weakly compromised to Wincer:
"I'm going to find my own things in the shipwreck in Sunset Bay. If you don't want to accompany me, let's separate."
"No way."
Hearing this proposal, Winser refused without hesitation. He kept a black face and reiterated "No".
After that, Wencer didn't say a word and swam to the west again.
Lance stayed there for a moment. He was really puzzled about Wencer's schizophrenia, but he was not easy to ask, let alone explain, so he could only follow Wencer dullly.
After that, the two mermaids fell into a cold war.
For Lance, this cold war is more like Wencer initiated unilaterally, he feels in a daze that Wencer is more like a kindergarten kid, only sulking sullenly.
Originally, Winser said that their trip should be two days, but during the whole process, Winser has been sluggish and fell into a coma from time to time. Lance has no choice but to pull the unconscious Winser every time after Winser is unconscious. Hastily found a place to put Wencer.
Without Wincer's company, Lance knew how dazed and at a loss he was.
Without Winsor's guidance, Lance didn't know what to do.
If you are hungry, you should eat fish.
But Lance didn't know what to eat and what not to eat. After losing the possibility of catching blue flame fish in the shallow sea, Lance changed the prey to other animals:
There are strange-looking fish and strange-taste jellyfish. They taste far worse than the blue flame fish. Although Lance is not too full to eat, he does not make himself hungry.
Sometimes, there is really no appetite, Lance will fool himself with seaweed at will, and then magically discovered that the mermaid can actually eat a vegetarian belly.
Does he need to consider a balance of meat and vegetables in his future recipes?
Lance pondered this question anxiously.
"What happened to you?"
Lance was a little afraid that his only partner would suddenly leave him. During most of the time that Wencer was in a coma, he would float beside Wencer, stroke Wencer's soft long hair with his slender white fingers, and began to hum in his mouth. Singing a short song he made up at random—
The ethereal singing of the mermaid floats gently on the bottom of the sea, softly and gently.
And Lance's singing seemed to slowly ease Wencer's inner sorrow, and Wencer would gradually loosen his eyebrows in Lance's singing.
Lance also breathed a sigh of relief.
He bowed his head and kissed Wencer on the forehead, sincerely wishing Wencer a speedy recovery.
Due to poor eating and sleeping these days, Lance has also lost a lot of weight visible to the naked eye.
This situation lasted piecemeal for three days, and Lance pulled Wencer, who was in a coma again, so sad that his scales dimmed a lot.
He wondered again whether it was because of his own arbitrary actions that Wencer had to go to the shallow waters to cause this situation.
This is also easy to understand, after all, Winsor is a mermaid that lives in the deep sea.
Lance thought sadly about this possible problem.
"Ok?"
Wincer suddenly woke up, he raised his head, saw Lance with him beside him, couldn't help but smile at Lance.
"Winser, don't sleep."
Lance quickly handed over the fish fillets he had prepared, "First eat something."
Wencer glanced at the fish fillet in Lance's hand. He stretched out his hand and touched Lance's head:
"Thank you."
Lance nodded, he asked sadly while watching Wencer eat the fish fillets:
"Winser, why do you always fall asleep... is it because you are not used to the shallow sea?"
Winser was choked suddenly, then he nodded seriously to Lance and said:
"Yes it is."
He paused and said to Lance:
"Let's go back to the deep sea."
Lance opened his mouth and did not answer the proposal.
When he was a human being, his desire for sunlight was destined to be unable to adapt to the dark darkness in the deep ocean.
After eating the fish fillets Lance gave, Winser fell into a coma again.
This time the drowsiness was longer. Wencer slept for a day and a night, waking up in a hurry, and after a glance at Lance, he fell asleep again.
Lance was desperately anxious, he wanted to go back to the deep sea now, but with his current state, it was impossible for him to return with a lethargic Winser.
He was so anxious that he hadn't eaten anything all day.
When Lance was so hungry that he felt he couldn't stand it, Lance had to hide Winsor, and then went out to search for food.
And this time, he accidentally ran into the super jellyfish.
The super jellyfish is entwining a red jellyfish at this time, two jellyfish lingeringly swimming by Lance, you and me.
Lance: "..."
After hesitating for a moment, Lance said: [Is that you? Jellyfish? 】
The mutated super-large jellyfish received the secret chat, and paused for a while, and then reacted, pulling the jellyfish next to it and rushing over:
[Ahhhh, cute, what a coincidence~]
Lance looked at the round and transparent oversized jellyfish in front of him, his expression was hard to say:
[You... escaped by yourself? 】
【correct. 】
The jellyfish is completely brainless. It doesn’t know that Lance was entangled with the tentacle at the time. It pulled the red jellyfish next to it and explained shyly.
[This is a jellyfish who is willing to give birth to me. 】
Langston gave a moment, then smiled dryly:
[Before the tentacles ran after you, I thought you were still on the bottom of the sea. 】
[I have to thank the tentacle, it allowed me to find such a beautiful Styx jellyfish. 】
Said the jellyfish.
Perhaps for it, Lance is not as cute as his wife.
Lance was speechless.
[Are you jealous? 】
The jellyfish stretched out her tentacles and touched Lance's head, patiently enlightened,
[Little cute can have a partner who is willing to give birth to you, so why can't I have one? 】
Lance was sluggish, and then realized that the jellyfish was talking about "Wenser", blushing with embarrassment, and hurriedly argued:
[We can't give birth to babies! 】
【Oh? 】
The jellyfish seemed puzzled.
To refute that the relationship between the two is not like that, and it shouldn't be this way.
[Forget it. 】
Lance downcast, he begged the jellyfish,
【Will you do me a favor? 】
Jellyfish: [Okay, okay, cutie touch me. 】
Lance ignored this request for the time being, and said:
[My friend, Winser, he doesn't seem to be used to the shallow sea, can you take him back to the deep sea? 】
The jellyfish was stunned for a moment. It lowered its head and used its tentacles to "gurgle" with the red jellyfish in its arms for a long time. The two jellyfish discussed for a while, and finally the super jellyfish agreed:
[Yes, Styx also said that the deep sea is better. If I send Styx back, I can also help you send him back...but, in this case, Xiaoyu, you will have one. 】
Lance smiled reluctantly:
[It's okay, I can. 】
He was just alone, and Winsor might die.
Lance can still tell which is lighter and heavier.
He still wanted to figure out what was going on, so he could only put Wencer back.
