Chapter 34
"I'm not fat!" Brandt said unconvincedly.
"I'm not too shy." Ji Yu was polite.
Brandt made a fool of himself on the spot with confidence: "As we all know, the mermaid with green tail is called grass carp for short."
Ji Yu said politely: "As we all know, fat-headed fish have no heads." Because their brains were eaten.
"..." The two clashed with each other. Brandt, who had just arrived in the world, could not defeat Ji Yu, who had been living in human society for many years. He was defeated in disappointment, suddenly remembered something, and said in shock, "Why are you a mermaid?!" He thought that except for the tribe members in Zixing, there would be no mermaids in other places.
Ji Yu looked at him pity: "Poor fat-headed fish, your reflex arc can build a bridge between blue and purple stars."
Brandt almost became a puffer fish.
But this still couldn't stop him from being excited when he saw his fellow tribe. Brandt looked at Ji Yu's fish tail and couldn't help saying, "You just looked at the humans in the hall like this? You are too brave, just separated by such a thin blanket. Are you not afraid of being discovered by someone?"
Ji Yu smiled and glanced at him: "Of course not." As he said that, he stood up from his wheelchair, and the grass-green fish tail instantly turned into human legs, wrapped in high-quality trousers.
Ji Yu walked to Brandt with her long legs, squatted down, and picked up pearls on the ground one by one: "The mermaid's tears are very precious, don't cry next time."
Brandt was moved, and Ji Yu asked again: "Do you want these pearls? If you don't want them, sell them as jewelry for me. How much money can you exchange them for... Don't want them? OK."
Brandt: "..." He didn't say no.
This mermaid is really caught up in the eyes of money.
Brandt doesn't care about these pearls, he has something more curious about: "Do you have human legs?"
Ji Yu looked at him in surprise: "You are not a flounder either."
Brandt twitched the corner of his mouth.
He understood, and the other party was saying that he didn't have eyes. After all, his legs were obvious, so he would look stupid if he asked this question again.
Why does a mermaid with such a gentle appearance have to speak so sarcastically!
"I know what you want to ask." Ji Yu didn't joke anymore, "The Ji family can't afford to use alien transformants. But it's a bit troublesome after all, you know. My identity needs to be frequently dealing with people. In order to prevent my true identity from suddenly recovering from my true identity in the middle of the conversation, I would just set up a disabled person to complete it."
Branti nodded to show understanding.
Any drug has a time limit, and xenoforms are not omnipotent. A bottle of high-level xenoforms can last for a month, but mermaids cannot do without water. Once they have not been touched with water for a certain period of time, they will start to return to their original shape from their tail, and then there are fish scales on the upper body and fins on their ears...
Brandt soaks his feet for a long time every day to prevent his true body from recovering.
Ji Yu's identity is destined to be constantly engaging in humans, walking by the river often, so she doesn't have any shoes wet. If the prototype is revealed in public, it will be bad. If you pretend to be disabled with your legs and cover yourself with a blanket, you will immediately leave once you find that you have a tendency to restore your original shape. There is also a reason to stay in simplicity and turn off all unnecessary social events on weekdays.
Yan Weiliang reacted calmly: "Head of Ji, I think you should give me an explanation."
Ji Yu turned around and nodded slightly: "That's natural."
Thirty years ago, a large number of mermaids were caught in the imperial capital and tortured, while another part of the mermaids wanted to rescue their companions. They killed humans, stole alien transformants, turned into humans, and stepped onto the land of the empire with treasures in the sea.
Relying on a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and spiritual power, they successfully made a fortune in the third area and disguised themselves as merchants. At that time, many merchants were fashionable to buy and sell mermaids. They used star coins to replace the caught mermaids from the merchants and rescued many of their companions.
They couldn't save all the mermaids, but at least some of them were saved.
The beginning was always difficult. In order to better get into human society, develop their own connections, and save more companions, they went to auctions and mermaid feasts. They had to watch their companions be bound by chains, be humiliated, and be thrown into the pot and cooked alive.
The mermaids disguised as humans had a huge hatred in their hearts, but they could only talk and laugh with others on their faces, pretending not to care, and they could not even cry.
How can they cry? If the tears shed turn into pearls, they will be exposed and their fate will become like those miserable tribe members.
In order not to cry, some mermaids even cruelly remove their tear glands.
In this way, when the mermaid tribe was almost completely destroyed, a mermaid survived under the noses of humans. Youdao is the most dangerous place and the safest place. Perhaps no one would have thought that the mermaid would dare to lurk in the empire.
Later, the Ji family's business grew bigger and bigger, from the third district to the first district - thirty years ago, the boundaries of the third district were not as strict as they are now. Most of them made money by buying and selling to enter the first district, and most of them made mermaids.
At first, the Ji family relied on the jewelry business to build a big deal. The sea has no shortage of treasures, and the mermaids have no shortage of tears.
These mermaids have successfully hidden in the imperial capital, but they can't hide it from the queen in the palace. Her Majesty the Queen will have a sense of the people nearby, and she realizes that this will be a helping force.
She had to leave a force for her children.
She used the unique method of the Mermaid Royal Family to transmit voice to the head of the Ji family at that time. She told him the identity of the third prince and said that if a new king was born in the clan within thirty years, she would support the new king. If not, she would serve him after the third prince saw Memory Crystal and learned about his identity.
The mermaids from the Ji family lineage have always been in contact with the elders of the mermaid tribe far away from Zixing. Now that it is almost thirty years, they are obviously feeling weak in their power, and there is still no new king in the mermaid tribe. So the mermaid tribe of Zixing sends Brandt to send the memory crystal. At the same time, the Ji family of the Empire received news that they held such a mobilized offline meeting to deliver the invitation letter to Brandt openly.
Even if he hadn't met Rhine or Yan Weiliang's money, the Ji family would have let Brandt know how to earn a place in the imperial capital through live broadcasts and put him on the popularity list.
The Ji family originally wanted to only smash Brandt into the top 100, so that people could enter the first zone without being too eye-catching. But unexpectedly, Brandt seized the opportunity of live broadcast with Serbia, and a rich man named "An" appeared and directly smashed the person on the list, which made the Ji family speechless.
...They haven't taken action yet.
As for why the Ji family didn’t send people to take Brandt to the imperial capital, but instead mobilized a group of people to hold an offline meeting?
1. The Ji family is also stared at by others. The people they brought in alone will definitely be strictly investigated by all parties, which is too unsafe. If you cast a net and send a hundred invitations, you can distract yourself.
Second, they need to invite the third prince, Chu Yuwen and Su Yu are just by the way. And being able to invite these three people does indeed make face for the Ji family.
3. If the money of those human aristocrats is not profitable, they will be useless.
"Your Highness." Ji Yu looked at him deeply, "We have been waiting for you for too long."
Since their fathers, they have been waiting for the third prince to grow up.
The Ji family has been developing its power over the past few decades and has even collected a lot of news from the nobles, all for one day to be able to be used by the king.
The mermaid's hatred will surely be tributed with the blood of the empire humans.
But at the same time, Ji Yu had a little secret concern.
...He was afraid that the third prince had been a human prince for too long and would no longer have the will to avenge the mermaid clan.
That is the third prince who protects the people of the empire.
Will you strike at the former compatriots for the sake of the people of the mermaid tribe?
This is a dilemma. No matter who is left to choose, it is probably difficult to balance.
The Ji family has been waiting for thirty years and does not want to wait for a king standing on the side of mankind.
He was waiting for Yan Weiliang to express his opinion.
The entire mermaid tribe of the Ji family is waiting for their king's statement.
That was their only hope.
Yan Weiliang lowered his head and kept silent for a moment, and asked, "Where is the mermaid pearl?"
Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief without any investigation and smiled slightly: "Military Department."
When His Highness asked where the Mermaid was, it means that he remembered that he was not very repulsive of the identity of the mermaid. Otherwise, he would not have the idea of restoring the prototype at all, nor would he ask about the whereabouts of the Mermaid.
"Military headquarters?" Yan Weiliang frowned.
"Yes. Her Majesty the Queen was trapped in the deep palace, and both the scepter and the crown were taken away by the human emperor. The scepter had the effect of maintaining youthful beauty forever, and was taken away by the human queen and placed indoors. The crown was also taken as his own." Ji Yu's voice was slightly cold.
"Bah! She is worthy!" Brandt was indignant.
Yan Weiliang whispered: "It turned out to be that bead."
Later, Chu Yuwen's flag was opened and the emperor asked him what he wanted to reward him. Chu Yuwen wanted the emperor's favorite golden armor. The emperor refused, so Chu Yuwen retreated and asked for a bead and a crown of the queen.
This time the emperor agreed.
The emperor had an incomprehensible armor. He was afraid of death, so he naturally had to wear it close to his body and would not give Chu Yuwen. But he didn't care so much about the queen's things, but it was just a woman's jewelry, so he gave it to him.
The mermaid pearl and Wang Guan were placed in the military headquarters by Chu Yuwen, and they were guarded by heavy troops, so no one could get close to him.
Yan Weiliang didn't care about these small details before, but now he thinks about it all kinds of things. Why did Chu Yuwen put gold, silver and treasures? He didn't want a high-end mecha, but he only asked for a bead and a crown?
The mermaid mermaid pearl is powerful, but it can only play a real role in the hands of the mermaid royal family. For humans, it can only delay aging and beautify the skin.
The crown is just a symbol of identity, and has no other function except that the pearls and gems on it are indeed precious.
Yan Weiliang said in a quiet voice: "I understand."
In this way, he had another reason to go to the military headquarters.
And, it is urgent.
Yan Weiliang, who came out of the lounge, looked exactly like a strange look, and turned around the corner and entered another uninhabited lounge.
Brandt and Serbia are temporarily arranged to live in the Ji family. The most urgent task is that he needs to get the mermaid pearl.
Yan Weiliang's original plan was to tell Chu Yuwen that he was from the cabinet after going back tonight, and then gradually gained Chu Yuwen's heart after a while. But now he has changed his plan, and time is more urgent than he imagined. The power of the mermaid clan has begun to decline, and they need their king to lift the seal as soon as possible.
He had to get the opportunity to enter the military headquarters in a short time.
That place was as solid as a god. If Chu Yuwen had not actively opened up his authority, outsiders would not have been able to get in any way. Even Yan Weiliang would not have been able to guarantee that he could escape unstoppable.
How can I let Chu Yuwen lead him into the military headquarters?
Yan Weiliang had a plan.
It's just that Yan Weiyuan, who has to use the sperm to the brain.
