On the beach, there are still many sea turtles struggling to lay eggs.The first batch of mothers have already returned to the sea, and the late mothers have few vacancies and often accidentally dig out the eggs of other sea turtles.There are already several black vultures walking along the beach eagerly, digging out turtle eggs with their sharp beaks for a good dinner, and even pecking each other's feathers for the same egg.

The scene of bird hair in this place is just like the mood of Fan Li.

No wonder she always felt that Su Yi and her mother did not look alike, and they were not alone.Suy is her mother's mother's mother's mother's mother... right?However, after more than two thousand years of reproduction, can ancestors still look like themselves?It really became mitosis.

But she was hit so badly that she didn't even bother to think about who Su Yi was and why she pitted herself.

She didn't know what kind of spiritual will she used to accept reality, but she just looked around like a walking dead: "Why are you here?"

"Of course I followed you secretly." Xinghai found a strong branch along the sand and made a bow. "I met Dangdang at school in the afternoon, and she said that you behaved abnormally recently and often talked. It’s like saying a last word. I saw you walking here just now. I didn’t take it too seriously. Who would have thought that you were so bold and suddenly plunged into the woods.”

"Oh... just curiosity. What are you doing?" Fanli said weakly.

"Prepare dinner. It's too late today, and the Abyss clan is out. It's not safe to go back. Wait until sunrise."

"I don't know who the Abyss Clan or these savages are more terrifying."

"Of course it is the Abyss. These savages are dull and weak. I can beat twenty."

In fact, Fanli just talked casually.I originally thought that Su Yi was the farthest on the other side of the earth. I didn't expect that the real distance between her and her home would be from the era of Qin Shi Huang before he unified China to the era of information technology.Even Su Shiye felt long for two thousand years, let alone her who had a life span of only 500 years.

Even if she really wanted to wait, she couldn't wait.

Therefore, she has lost her curiosity and interest in everything now.

Xinghai wrapped a small wooden stick around the bow, snapped his fingers, and it flew up with a light, spinning on the hardwood, drilling out black powder, and the black powder gave birth to fire due to smoke.Then, he took the tinder to the beach, burned a circle on the reef, and returned with a bunch of barnacles in less than a minute.At the same time, he opened his hands, and the barnacle flew weightlessly to the outer flames of the fire, spinning by itself and being cooked by the fire.

Arcane is so magical, it often reminds Fanli of magic.It's just that it didn't originate from the witch, but from the sea god.

It seems that the journey home is long, and now I can only work hard to learn arcane arts and fundamentally find a way to exchange my soul.

Fortunately, she has Su Yi's head, so she can always think of a way.

After roasting for a while, the smell fills the olfactory nerves.Fan Li couldn't help sniffing.Xinghai packed the food with a large flat shell and handed it to her.She hugged her knees and looked at the barnacle, her face wrinkled: "Can this be eaten?"

The place where she sees barnacles most often is on the back of a whale.Thousands of them are connected together, and there are small eyes on them, which makes people directly guilty of intensive phobia.

"Barnacles are not eaten here by many people, but they are niche high-end ingredients in Kuaikukai. They are steamed with sake and wrapped in seaweed. They are delicious. Or they can be grilled on fire as they are now." The pot, took a sip, and lost the shell.

Seeing him eating, Fan Li also pinched a piece, pushed out the meat with his fingers, and sucked into the mouth.Then, the tip of the tongue was moisturized as heaven by the bubbling tender meat.Because the barnacle itself was soaked in sea water, it was very tasty without adding salt, so she held her face and ate another piece.

Looking at the sea shrouded in darkness, the stars stretched to the junction of sea and sky, as if hundreds of millions of silver sand would be sprinkled in the sea at any time.At this moment, anyone can feel the vastness and depth of the universe, but she knows that she has no home.

Since you don't know where tomorrow will be, let's enjoy the deliciousness of the moment.

Fan Li was a little tired, leaning back on the rock behind him.But his arm accidentally bumped into a slippery cold thing.She was taken aback, turned her head quickly, pushed her glasses, and saw something flashed past on the rock and disappeared.She couldn't help getting closer to Xinghai: "What...what is it?"

Xinghai picked up the torch, illuminated the strange rock and pointed at a shiny fish: "Throttlefish can stick to the rock tightly. Some of the adhesives we usually use come from it."

"Amphibians?"

"Yes, it can live on the coast and feed on limpets that also live on the coast. You see, it is preparing for dinner." Xinghai pointed to a dark shell attached to the rock again. There are a lot of limpets at high tide today. The mucus of limpets is also very viscous, and it will move around, scraping off seaweed with tongues everywhere to eat."

"Do shells have teeth too?"

"Of course, its teeth are still one of the strongest substances in the ocean, thirteen times harder than your human teeth."

"So amazing..." Fanli was dumbfounded, and quickly turned back to look at him, "What is meant by'our human'?"

Xinghai smiled softly: "No way, who told you to always act like a human."

"Where do I behave like a human..."

"Speaking accent stays on the tip of the tongue, never using the throat; I seem to be unfamiliar with everything in the sea, but understand human things very well; I always want to go ashore and like to walk on my legs. If it weren’t for your physical lack of human genetic characteristics, I Everyone thinks you are a mixed race of humans and sea people."

"Ok……"

"Look. Eat it." Xinghai patted her shoulder, motioning her to look at the throat fish.

But she only saw the lionfish open its mouth, and a limpet on the rock disappeared.Seen nothing else.She took off her glasses, rubbed her eyes, put them on again, wanting to take a closer look.But after waiting for a long time, only saw the throatfish spit out the empty shells and spray them on the rocks with a crisp sound of hitting the rocks.

She observed carefully for a while, the laryngeal fish moved for a while, its fins trembling as prepared before the battle, and the whole body was tight.Then, the same scene reappeared.Fanli was a little confused: "How does it eat shellfish?"

"I forgot, your eyesight is not so good. Throat fish hunting only takes 0.33 seconds." Xinghai picked up the shell it spit out and opened it to her to take a look. "When it holds the limpet, it will be fixed with teeth. Hold half of the shell and rotate the other half 90 degrees, which destroys the vacuum tightness of the shell. Then it swallows the whole limpet, and the mucus in the stomach flows into the shell along the gap, digesting the meat, and then The shell is regurgitated."

Fan Li's face twisted: "Wow, it's really disgusting and a way of eating without eating experience..."

Xinghai suddenly made a "hush" motion and straightened his body to look behind them.A large number of indigenous people came out to make a bonfire and grilled fish, seeming to be preparing for a celebration.Seeing them getting closer and closer, he hurriedly pulled Fanli into the sea, but he still failed to be silent.The sound of "puff" successfully attracted the attention of the indigenous people.In their angry shouts, they brushed a few branches, a few stones, two axes, and a dead fish hit Fan Li's head.

Her legs turned into tails again, and Fanli didn't get used to it and almost sank.Xinghai quickly hugged her waist and swam into the sea invisible to the aboriginals, then let go of her hand and held her shoulders instead: "Look, you are acting like a human again. Swimming Not anymore."

Fan Li lowered her head to see the scenery in the sea, but the glasses were full of sea water, so she took off her glasses and shook it, and said bitterly, "Why don't you use glasses..."

"Maybe because my vertical pupil doesn't show up, but it still has functions."

She remembered that there is a "bright blanket" membrane made up of special cells behind the sharks' eyes, which not only helps them adjust their eyesight, but also has night vision.

Putting on his glasses again, Fan Li found that the sea was pitch black, and there was an unknown and deep fear.But looking up at the sky, I have never seen so many stars in the city, spreading to the end of the line of sight, the majestic Milky Way illuminates the sky like snowflakes, and outlines the natural form of the dark blue star.The dark shadows of the reefs and islands reminded her that she was on the surface of the sea, otherwise, she would feel that she could always open her arms and embrace the night sky.

Suddenly, she had a joy of freedom, so she opened her arms and wandered on the sea, while looking up at the starry sky, the galaxy flowed slowly along with her, watching the wonderful videos shot by nature.

Xinghai followed behind, always keeping her half a meter away, accompany her to swim in the sparkling sea.

"Xinghai, do you know? Actually I am the same as you. I don't have any family anymore." She didn't dare to stop, and said to him in a calm tone as much as possible.But the sense of helplessness was a huge thing, and she was overwhelmed with breath.

She sank into the sea, took off her glasses, and everything became very clear again.But the night vision ability of the Ocean Race is not very good, she can only see a dark blue, weak starlight, countless black fish shadows...

Xinghai also sank, his face was clean and beautiful, his broken hair was messy, and the fluttering white clothes were angel wings.As if to comfort him, he dialed her short rosy hair and smiled slightly: "As a sea clan, in troubled times, the most luxurious thing is to have a home."

"Well, I know..." As it was said, Fanli's voice was already a little choked, "My life span is so short, it's too short to find home."

If it's a hunter, it's okay, maybe after more than two thousand years, you can ask Su Yixing's master.But she is a marine clan, destined to die in the ancient sea.

"I also lost my parents, but I believe I will have a home. So, so do you. You will have a home. As for life span..." Xinghai sighed, and a few bubbles floated up on his lips. My mother used to tell us that he had a short lifespan, and she was worried that her father would be lonely after she died. She even thought about taking risks to be promoted to hunters in order to live longer, but her father severely stopped her."

Promoted to hunter?!

Fanli seems to have heard some terrible news.It's just that Xinghai said it in such a normal tone. This should be a well-known common sense. Therefore, she did not let herself be too excited, but just chatted casually: "Where does she want to be promoted?"

"In the black market of the Sea of ​​Stars. But you know, changing race is not only a violation of the law, but also life-threatening. Her father would never let her take such a risk."

"Maybe... She just wants to stay with your father for a longer time. I think it's right for her to think like this."

"Wrong!" Xinghai said flatly, "Even if there is only 1% chance of death, my father and I would not agree with her to do that!"

"You are a filial child. With a son like you, your parents must be very proud."

Fan Li looked at the empty surroundings. In the dark night, the sea had a sense of desperation, even more than the fear of death.It is a good choice to study arcane and find a way to go back.If there is a way to make her live more than two thousand years later, risking promotion to a hunter clan seems to be a choice...

In short, everything has to start again.

Although sad, looking at Xinghai, she wanted to start a little more.

In this way, she can get along with Xinghai for a while.You can also calm down to learn new knowledge and understand the culture of the Hai nationality. After completing this journey and returning to China in the 21st century, there is something to be said.

"Xinghai." She called softly.

"Ok?"

"Thank you." At this moment, she felt much calmer, and smiled slightly at Xinghai, "You don't know how much your existence means to me."

"I feel the same as you."

That night, they slept all night in an unmanned sea cave along the coast.The body of the Hai Clan likes water, and it is very comfortable to sleep in a damp place. Both of them slept till dawn.

When I got up the next day, the sea pillars next to him were full of sea crows.As soon as Fanli and Xinghai swam out, half of the sea crows became birds and beasts. He took her back to Luoya and went home.

Pushing open the living room door, Fan Li found that Mrs. Hong seemed to be the same as her. She hadn't slept well all night, and her dark circles almost fell on her chin.Fan Li was about to sympathize with her, when Red Sister broke into the door and said coldly: "Sister, can you tell me directly, why are you so frowning recently?"

Mrs. Hong pressed her chest and sighed: "I'm just worried about the baby's milk powder money. Every time I have to go out to work, our husband has nothing to do, and I am very sorry."

"Stop acting, he's not good for anything. He cheated."

Mrs. Hong first turned pale, then waved her hand and said, "There is nothing, isn't it enough for both of us? How can he have the energy to cheat."

"When was the last time he had sex with you?" Red Sister looked at her aggressively, "Are you going to tell me that you have been too busy recently to remember? Then I will tell you my answer, one A month ago. We have been married to him for so long, and he has been singing every night, and recently suddenly told me that he is tired. Do you think this is normal?"

"He may be tired. After all, there are more children now."

The red sister was so angry that she slapped the table hard: "Are you still using your child to prevaricate me? Why is he tired? Isn't he exhausted on the neighbor's wife?! That shameless woman all tricked me today Up!"

After Mrs. Red's face turned white, she never came back normally.

"Sister, do you know what I’m most saddened for? I am not the first person to know that such a big thing has happened. And what makes me sad is that this kind of thing has happened many times, you You all know, you didn't tell me!" At this point, the red sister turned from anger to grief and couldn't help crying.

"My dear, I just don't want you to be too disappointed with him. After all, when we got married, your eyes were full of happiness. You love him so much and letting you know the truth does not change the facts, and you will still be hurt... "

"I finally know now, why every time I ask you to be nice to him and tell you not to dislike him, you just sneer."

Mrs. Hong looked down at the child, shaved the child’s white face with her index finger, and smiled bitterly: “I’m a woman who is already a mother. It doesn’t make much sense to have love. Knowing that he not only loves cheating, but also steals other things. A man’s wife’s perverted habit, apart from not wanting to be touched by him, I don’t take it too seriously. I am not lonely to have you take care of the baby. But it’s different for you. You love him."

Red sister suddenly stopped crying and became extra calm: "No, sister, you don't know me too much. I can't stand the betrayal. The moment I learned that he betrayed us, my heart for him was dead."

Mrs. Hong was taken aback for a moment: "...really?"

"Really."

"I see. Let's leave him."

"it is good."

Mrs. Hong closed her eyes and sighed: "Eight years, eight years of marriage..."

"Sister, don't be sad, this scumbag has delayed our eight years of youth, and there is nothing to regret. Moreover, now that you have a baby, you really don't need him anymore. I will help you with your children in the future and don't want this scumbag. "

"You will have a baby too." Mrs. Hong smiled firmly and tenderly at her, "You are so young and so beautiful, don't worry."

"Ok!"

Mrs. Hong gave the child to Sister Hong to take care of her, and she looked at the slum outside the window, as if she had made some determination, and there was no movement for a long time.

"Ah, I'm an idiot, I forget all important things when I get angry!" The red sister suddenly patted her head, "Fanli, you were not there last night, the people from your school asked me to tell you about it. This morning, at half past nine, you All ocean races in the Arcane Academy will do genetic sample testing so you can go to school early."

"Genetic sample testing?"

"Well, listening to him, it seems that the Buco wedding homicide is progressing. After searching the headquarters for reinforcements, they found the suspect's dander on Miss Bubble's body. It was found that this person was a marine clan and asked the students to cooperate with them. Thorough investigation. But I think it’s quite stupid that they set the scope at Luoya University. Why do students from Luoya University kill Miss Bubble? Because "the whole world is jealous of the beautiful Miss Bubble"? Even me, a third-rate university. Everyone knows that her real grades may not be as good as me. Who would be jealous of her. This idea is really like the princess's customized police would think of..."

Mrs. Hong interrupted: "Okay, okay, you look at you, and you can't help but poison your tongue. People are dead, just forget it. But how is this matter still under investigation, will it affect Fanli and the others' study? "

The Red Sister screamed and spit out a loud bubble: "Of course it will affect. I am not happy with these police officers."

Fanli didn't know when it started, and he kept "buzzing" in his mind as if he had been pretending to be a living honeycomb.She looked at the time, it pointed to eight ten ten.She calculated whether it would be too late to escape the coast now.

No, if you run away, as long as you get caught back, you will definitely be regarded as a criminal.Moreover, there was nothing on the shore except the cannibals.There is no safe human world that she is familiar with.

If she stayed, she might not be suspected.Even if she is regarded as a murderer, she can find a way to prove her innocence, saying that she actually saw Miss Bubble's red suicide note-but how to explain her motive for avoiding the whole process?

Fan Li thought for a long time, before they were not paying attention, she went back to the room and took a bottle, then sneaked into their room, found the right whale baleen brush for their bath, and scraped the dander on the bottle.Then, she rummaged in the trash can for a while, until the cry of the child approached, she hurried out, just in time to see Sister Red swimming up on her face.

"Fanli, why are you looking so ugly? What are you doing with your hands behind?"

Fan Li gripped the bottle tighter, straightened her back, and coughed twice: "Ah! By the way, what is the name of the teacher who informed me yesterday?"

Red sister shook her head: "I don't know, it's a male teacher."

"What race?"

"I don't know. He wrapped the whole person with only his face. He couldn't tell the race, but his face was very beautiful, even more beautiful than a girl."

"The whole person is wrapped up?"

"Yes indeed."

This gave Fanli inspiration again.

At 9:25, in front of the side entrance of the Arcane College of Luoya University, a long team of Ocean Race spread to the back of Zaoyuan.There are only a few students in the first-level arcane department.

Fanli was wrapped in a cloak and covered her cheeks in the line. Suddenly Xinghai swam from right in front, held her shoulders, and twisted her body straight: "Please don't go crazy, now you are sick, and come out quickly , I will send you back.” After finishing speaking, the palm of the hand slipped down, and something was missed, and it fell into Fanli's hand impartially.Then he wandered away without looking back.

After about a quarter of an hour, we finally arrived at Fanli.

She entered the empty room alone, with only two people in it.One is a strong Qi policeman standing by the window, and the other is a female PhD in life sciences sitting behind the table.The female doctor wore glasses and a white lab coat, and each of her tentacles wore white gloves-there were no fingers in the shape, only the shape of dense suckers.These tentacles methodically fiddle with the things on the table: one is sending a test tube under her glasses for observation, one is writing and taking notes, one is pouring waste dander into the trash can, one is holding a cotton swab, and the other is disinfecting. Wash the cotton swabs, one is preparing a new solution, the other is tearing the test paper...

"Come and sit down." The last of her fingers pointed at the chair in front of the table, but her hand held up her glasses in the direction of Fanli, "How do you dress like this? This is to bring the Shengdu Red Guard to the Haibo The posture of the opening ceremony?"

"I went to sea to play yesterday, I don't know what I ate wrong, I got itchy all over today..."

The female doctor frowned, did not speak, but used the tentacle to push the chair farther.Fanli hunched her back and swam over slowly, and sat down on the chair: "Which hand is it?"

"Anything, hurry up."

"It's up to you to pick, I don't know which test is more accurate."

"Left hand."

Fan Li glanced at the policeman by the window. His eyes were half-closed, and his head bit by bit, as if he would soon fall asleep to the ground.She stretched out her left hand.Sure enough, as Xinghai told her this morning, the doctor will disinfect her hands with cotton swabs, and then take a thin layer of skin tissue on the epidermis of the fingers.After applying the potion, her large cloak suddenly slipped off her arm, blocking her left hand.

"What are you doing!" The female doctor rolled her eyes.

The policeman by the window opened his eyes, looked around, and began to doze off again.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Fan Li wiped the dander from Mrs. Red's room on her index finger under the cloak, then lifted the cloak, preparing to scrape it on the sampling sheet on the table.

But at this moment, the communicator on the table flickered suddenly and made a sound.The female doctor raised her hand to Fanli, signaled her to pause, then picked up the communication device, turned her back to Fanli, and answered the call: "...what, did you take the exam this time? My dear, why are you doing this? Hey, did your teacher praise you? The bastard at your table dare not laugh at you, I know you can definitely..."

She babbled on the phone for six minutes.Fan Li kept holding her index finger, for fear that the dander would fall off, she had to stay calm and not hear the abnormal heartbeat. It was like a year.

Finally, the phone call was almost finished, and the female doctor was still using "Baby Be Good, Be Good, and Be Good" to conclude the conversation.She seemed to be exasperated, forgetting that she had disinfected Fanli, and took the hand of Fanli, and once again took the cotton swab with her tentacle and brushed Fanli's index finger a few times.A few pieces of Mrs. Red's dander floated in the sea water, slowly floating in front of the female doctor.

The female doctor squinted her eyes and stared at their floating trajectory throughout.

Fan Li's eyes widened and almost forgot to breathe.Her right hand was already holding the cloak, and she was shaking horribly, and her left hand was still spread out quietly like a dead person.

But the female doctor just waved her hand in disgust, waved away the dander, pointed to the sampling piece, stared at Fanli, and waited for her to sample again.Fan Li swallowed her saliva, and hung her left index finger on top of the sample sheet. The palm of her right hand was full of sweat that was different from the temperature of sea water.

Finally, the female doctor hung up: "Cai, what are you doing."

"I think, I have an infectious disease, is it related to the skin..." Fanli looked at her timidly, "Can you collect other things, such as nails?"

The female doctor threw a nail clipper on the table to her.

She lowered her head and cut it, "Da Da Da Da", very hard and very loud.

The female doctor picked up her nails with tweezers and put them in a bullet-sized bottle.The bottle is placed on a metal holder.

Fan Li made fists with both hands at the waist, holding an identical bottle in one hand, staring straight at the female doctor to prepare the solution, and stretched out her tentacles to take the bottle...

At this time, someone knocked on the window.The police woke up and looked over with the female doctor.Xinghai's face appeared by the window: "Doctor, is my girlfriend in there? Fanli, are you okay? Come out, I'll wait for you."

Fan Li quickly stood up, and dropped the small bottle in his hand and the bottle on the holder.

"Go away. Official duties are being performed here." The policeman knocked on the window door impatiently and patted Xinghai away.

The female doctor turned around, took out the bottle that had been wrapped, poured the solution, and soaked the test paper in it.

After thirty long seconds passed, she glanced at the rough test result: "Go out, next one."

Fanli breathed a sigh of relief and got up to leave.But before he left, the police swam over, read the results written by the female doctor, and shouted: "Wait."

"What?" Fan Li's heart "cocked", and the texture of her whole body was almost frozen.

The police looked at her, then looked at the text on the report, and then looked at her against her. His eyes narrowed into a slit: "Rusty red thorns?"

Fan Li blinked quickly, and his brain short-circuited for an instant: "Yes."

***4.3 Small Theater***

Xinghai: "Regarding the'Xia' in the previous chapter, some readers misunderstood that it was the Xia Dynasty. This is not the dynasty, but the name of the country."

Fanli: "Yeah, now China is in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period. Xinghai has hinted that the emperor has no real power, and the seven countries are striving for hegemony."

Yejia: "That is quite similar to Guanghai, and Su Shiye's previous dictator is far less powerful than him. So what is Su Shiye, Qin Shihuang?"

Su Shiye: "Will I die if you don't cue one day."

Yejia: "Yes."
