The world is broken, the cubs mend it

The red wine, which originally had a light fruity aroma, turned into a glass of red, sticky and thick liquid, bubbling with bubbles.

The beautiful and gentle mermaid girl also turned into a skeleton, with dry bones resting on his shoulders and a hollow skull drooping. Although there were no eyeballs, people felt that they were being watched eerily.

Lin Che was the first person to react to the situation. Without having time to think, she slapped Xia Chi awake.

There were also skeletons lying beside the other players, and the strange liquid was about to pour into Qin Yan's mouth. He woke up at the critical moment, overturned the wine glass and stood up in panic.

The foul-smelling liquid spilled onto the clothes, burning a hole in them.

Xia Chi woke up the girl next to him. The other two players were sitting too far away, and the glass of "wine" was poured into their mouths before they could get over.

The two could never wake up again, drowning in the illusion, their faces red and mumbling something inaudible.

When everything returned to normal at dawn, the two men fell down due to inertia, and their flesh peeled off, leaving only a pair of skeletons.

One of them had a gold necklace around her neck, which fell into the gap under the tablecloth along with the body.

The players looked at each other blankly. The atmosphere was extremely depressing. They went back to their bedrooms without saying anything.

No humans came to the shore today to disturb the peaceful life of the father and daughter. Vitalia took a branch and taught the child to paint on the beach.

Yuanyuan studied very hard, following his father to draw grass and trees stroke by stroke.

The little guy studied for a whole morning and started to get restless again when he saw the castle opposite, wanting to go play there.

Vitalia could see through the child's little thoughts at a glance, but she didn't show it. She just accompanied her quietly and taught her to speak the language of the mermaids.

Yuanyuan is young and has a strong ability to accept new things. He can repeat what his father teaches him a few times perfectly.

But when I asked the question again after a while, I had almost forgotten it.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the little guy repeated the same trick and reached the other side of the sea.

"..."

Compared to the nervousness she felt the first time, Vitalia felt more helpless and could only hope that her child would come back soon.

The castle was as quiet as usual, with two more skeletons in the hall.

Yuanyuan ran over curiously to check and found a glittering gold necklace on the right side.

Her eyes lit up and she picked up the necklace, holding it in her palm and examining it carefully.

A golden Buddha pendant hung on a thin gold chain. It felt heavy in the palm of the hand and was even heavier than the big gold tooth obtained last time.

Just as he was about to stand up, a dark shadow loomed over him. The little guy was startled and lifted the tablecloth and slipped inside.

"Why are you here again?"

Xia Chi had just woken up and felt his throat was dry, so he went to the restaurant to get some water and happened to run into her.

"I'll come over and take a look."

Yuanyuan came out from the other end of the table, clenched the gold necklace in her hand, and looked into his eyes vigilantly, afraid that he would steal her things.

"Oh…"

Xia Chi glanced at the necklace in her hand, but didn't want to turn around and get some water.

The little guy stood aside and observed for a moment, then ran over to him and gently pulled his trouser leg.

"Can you give me some more of your snack?"

"..."

Xia Chi picked up the water cup and drank it all in one gulp. When he put the cup down, there was a crisp clinking sound.

"Take me to the island across the way, and all the remaining snacks will be yours."

He raised his hand to rub the bruises under his eyes, and deep down he was still a little reluctant to part with his snacks.

"..."

Yuanyuan stared at him for a long time, then shook her head as if she had thought of something.

"Then I won't eat."

"why?"

Xia Chi lowered his eyes and looked at her. He had no intention of hurting them as long as they did not endanger his life.

"Someone went to see Dad a few days ago. They will hurt Dad. I don't believe you."

Yuanyuan turned around and went to the corridor again, rummaging through the drawers in the room looking for something interesting.

Xia Chi on the side thought for a moment and followed.

There are no particularly interesting toys in the castle, just some cute and exquisite ornaments that the little ones will play with in their hands.

"How about the group of people who came in earlier?"

Yuanyuan was stunned when she heard this, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "I don't know, sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad."

They all wanted to kill Dad and had hurt him, but they also treated his injuries and gave themselves delicious food.

So she couldn't tell whether those people were good or bad.

It is difficult to define whether a person is good or evil, and Xia Chi probably understands that a little bit.

Just like walking behind the big boss now, his inner desire to kill is also at work. Maybe if he kills her he can leave here immediately.

People shouldn't have feelings for monsters in the dungeon, but she gave him food yesterday, and this insignificant thing was enough to suppress the evil in his heart.

"Do you like gold necklaces?"

She held the necklace tightly all the way, and was reluctant to put it down even when she came across other interesting things.

"This is for Dad. Grind it into small pieces and they will become Dad's scales."

Yuanyuan held the necklace even tighter, afraid that she would forget about it while playing and lose it.

Sometimes she would be playing with a toy one second and have no idea where it was the next.

"You mean this can turn into your father's scales?"

Xia Chi finally found some useful information, Vitalia's tail has no scales.

"Yeah, do you have anything like that?"

Yuanyuan came closer and held up the necklace and shook it. Her father's tail was too big. She didn't know how long it would take to collect scales all over it.

"Yuanyuan, I want to make a deal with you."

Xia Chi took off the necklace from around his neck. The black rope was tied with a gold and jade longevity lock.

"Take me to the island for a look, and this necklace and snacks will all be yours."

Without waiting for Yuanyuan to refuse, he quickly added.

"Go and discuss this with your father. I will go to the island alone. I cannot defeat the two of you alone. My life is in your hands."

After that, he put the necklace in his hand into the child's hand.

Yuanyuan held the longevity lock which was still warm in her hand, her eyebrows were almost twisted into knots.

"I'll go back and ask Dad. If he doesn't agree... then... then I won't give it back to you."

Seeing hope, Xia Chi immediately went back to the bedroom, put on his bag, followed her to the beach, and watched her swim to the other side.

Yuanyuan is still very trustworthy and told her father what she promised.

Looking at the longevity lock in the child's hand, Vitalia raised her eyes and looked towards the other side of the sea.

I don’t know what I said to the father and daughter, but the little guy came over happily wagging his tail.

"My dad said that he allows you to go over and take a look, but you are not allowed to have any ulterior motives."

Yuanyuan was lying on the shore waiting for him to go into the water. Xia Chi was delighted to hear that, so he jumped into the water and swam with her towards Vitalia.
