Debuted in the C position of the thriller variety show

Seeing this real-time heartbeat index, both the audience and the fans in the live broadcast room were stunned.

[Why is it 40%? 】

【I feel like No. 2 didn’t do anything】

[Could it be cheating! 】

[In front, are you here to be funny, how to cheat in the show, is it really so difficult to admit that Zhou Zhou is great? 】

In fact, Xie Xiaozhou didn't do nothing.

Everything was foreshadowed on the cruise ship.

Xie Xiaozhou bought the mermaid and tried to tame it. Although it stopped halfway through, some things were still engraved in the mermaid's memory.

***

The night wind blows slowly.

There is no place to shelter from the wind and rain on the island, and the shadows of the dense forest in the distance are whirling and the wind is blowing.Xie Xiaozhou had no choice but to hide in the gap between two rocks on the shore, relying on the rocks to barely block the night wind.

He curled up into a ball, hugging his shoulders, trying to absorb the warmth.

This day has been full of twists and turns.

The cruise ship sank, wandered on a deserted island, the strategy plan was disrupted, and the status of the mermaid was reversed, and it was his turn to become a pet...

Xie Xiaozhou put his chin on his knees, replaying what happened in this link.Just as I was thinking seriously, there was a sudden "crash" in my ear.

He subconsciously looked over.

The moonlight is good tonight, and the moonlight is flowing, covering the sea, as if a layer of beautiful veil has fallen.

The mermaid broke through the water and sat down on the rock.The seaweed-like curly hair hangs on the back of the body, showing a dark blue color under the moonlight.He held a scalloped shell and gently brushed his hair.

During the movement, the crystal blue tail swayed unconsciously, and the translucent tail fin swept the waves below.

Probably because of the filter of fairy tales, mermaids are always considered to be a fragile, delicate and romantic species.

But in fact, the mermaid from the deep sea can be said to be the top of the food chain in the entire sea area, full of wildness.His fingers, teeth, and fish tail can all be used as sharp weapons, and his every move is full of wildness.

Maybe it was staring for too long, the mermaid keenly noticed the gaze cast from elsewhere.He turned his head abruptly, and a low growl resembling a beast-like demonstration came out of his throat.

He grinned, and a row of sharp white teeth could be clearly seen.

Xie Xiaozhou: "..."

After seeing that it was Xie Xiaozhou, the mermaid withdrew its hostile gaze.He threw the shell back into the sea casually, and looked at Xie Xiaozhou motionlessly.

The mermaid's eyeballs are dark blue, because they have never been in contact with human society, so they don't have too many thoughts inside.

But now, because of this human boy, there is a touch of emotion that he never had before.

strangeness……

too weird.

Mermaids know that humans are hateful, but this boy is different to him.

The mermaid felt a slight suffocation again.

He stretched out his fingers, and his sharp nails scratched the gold collar on his neck, leaving a shallow mark.

At the beginning, the mermaid hated the gold collar.He should be free in the sea and shouldn't be trapped by this kind of thing.

But now he is used to it.why is that?

The mermaid's eyes froze, as if she was thinking.

Below the reef, waves of snow-white waves surged in, beating against the stones non-stop, and the mermaid just sat there casually, like an illustration.

The night was silent.

A gust of wind blew past, and the woods behind him rustled.

Xie Xiaozhou blinked and decided to say something to ease the atmosphere: "Can you sing?"

The mermaid nodded.

Mermaids are born to sing.They have a god-given voice, but they never sing easily.

Because, when the mermaid sang, it was either to sink the ship on the sea, or to woo the one she liked.

Xie Xiaozhou didn't know the reason, so he said casually: "Can you sing it for me?"

The mermaid lifted the hair around her cheek with one hand.

But there is no ship to sink here, and there is no favorite... Thinking of this, his movements paused.

really not?

The mermaid's fingers unconsciously pressed against her chest.

Because they live in the deep sea, mermaids are cold-blooded animals without temperature, and their hearts beat very slowly.

But he wants to be close to this human boy, to be close to, to rely on... It seems that as long as he is with the boy, he can feel at ease and safe.

This is an unprecedented feeling.

The mermaid was a little annoyed, and grabbed the rock under her with the other hand, but couldn't control her own strength, and broke off a large rock with a "click".

thump—

The stone fell to the surface of the water with a soft sound.

The mermaid realized that no matter what it was, when he was on the boat, this human boy was always responsive to his requests.

As long as he is obedient, anything will be given to him.

Now... this human boy is also very obedient.

He should agree to this request.

The mermaid propped up her hands, got under the sea surface, and disappeared.

Xie Xiaozhou thought that the mermaid rejected the request, so he looked away, closed his eyes and prepared to rest.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, he heard a clear singing.

That was a melody I had never heard before.

The voice is clean and clear, like a clear spring drawn from thousands of miles of deep sea, cold and refreshing.

A salty smell of sea water hits the face.

Xie Xiaozhou seemed to be in the depths of the sea.He saw bright spots of light emitting from the coral clumps, orange and white clownfish swimming among them, and farther away, the huge body of a cetacean slowly turned over.

There are two kinds of mermaid singing, one is to confuse the sailors and lead the ship to a dead end; the other is to woo.

Xie Xiaozhou only felt that the singing was different from what he had heard before.

Soothed by the singing, he fell into a deep sleep.

on the sea.

A tail flashed by, and the singing was gradually drowned out by the sound of the waves.

[Speechless, saving the mermaid and making the mermaid sing, isn't this the same as Xiao Yu?Do you really have no idea of ​​your own? 】

【Hehe, it's really disgusting to learn from others.】

【If you don't have eyes, I can lend you some.What is exactly the same?Then why guest No. 1 was eliminated in an instant, and our Zhouzhou can still reach 40% of the heart rate? 】

【Yeah, let me explain】

[What's the use of being able to brush the heart rate once, there are still three rounds to come, can you speak loudly after you win? 】

***

The moon sets and the sun rises.

On the sea level, the sun rises slowly like an orange orange, dispelling the chill on the deserted island.

Xie Xiaozhou's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Now he can finally know what it feels like to be locked in a small fish tank. He just sat and slept here for a night, and his back hurts all over his body.

He came out and stretched his sore body standing on the beach.

The morning light slanted down and fell on Xie Xiaozhou's body, bringing a little warmth.

He turned his head and found that the mermaid was already sitting on the reef by the sea.

The mermaid held a lively little fish in one hand, stretched out a finger with the other hand, cut open the belly of the little fish with a light stroke, and picked out the most tender fish meat.Just as he was about to stuff it directly into his mouth, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xie Xiaozhou.

He stopped and stretched out his hand towards the boy on the shore.

feeding.

Being an owner requires feeding.

Xie Xiaozhou took a look.

A piece of white fish lay between the mermaid's fingers, with a pink luster on the edges.

Xie Xiaozhou: "..."

He ate sashimi yesterday, and now he was empty stomach in the morning, and when he saw raw fish again, he felt a rush of stomach acid.

He rejected the mermaid's offer.

The mermaid didn't force it, raised her hand and stuffed the fish fillet into her mouth, and then swallowed the rest of the fish whole.

His teeth were very good, and even the fish bones were chewed together, making a crunching sound.

After eating, the mermaid looked at the boy.

Xie Xiaozhou understood what he meant, stepped barefoot into the waves, and walked towards the mermaid.

The boy is getting closer.

The mermaid who had been quiet all this time suddenly made a move, firmly grabbed the boy's ankle, and dragged him into the sea water.

Xie Xiaozhou: "Well——"

He was caught off guard and choked on a mouthful of seawater.The salty and fishy smell filled the mouth and flowed back into the trachea.

Xie Xiaozhou wanted to break free, but was easily held down by the mermaid.He gave up resisting and met the mermaid's eyes at close range.

He is looking at the mermaid.

The mermaid was also looking at him.

This human boy doesn't have sharp claws on his fingers, nor does he have a beautiful and powerful fish tail on his body, so he can't even survive in the sea.

Originally, the mermaid wanted to make this human teenager suffer some pain—just like what he had experienced before.But after dragging the boy into the water, he regretted it a little.

Thinking that the teenager would be in pain made him very uncomfortable.This feeling is even more uncomfortable than the feeling of being pricked by a sea urchin last time.

Xie Xiaozhou can't swim, but after entering the program, he fell into the water a few times and learned how to hold his breath more or less.

Now he held his breath, and out of fear of the water source, he hugged the mermaid tightly.

Human body temperature is too hot for mermaids, like a continuous source of heat sticking to their bodies.

The mermaid was stunned for a moment, then slashed her wrist and handed it to Xie Xiaozhou's lips.

Xie Xiaozhou didn't know why, after looking at each other with the mermaid, he lowered his head and covered it.

The mermaid's blood is light blue in color, and it doesn't have the unique fishy smell of blood when it enters the mouth. Instead, it is sweet and smells like the sea.

Mermaid... What are you doing?

No one can judge the behavior of a beast, even Xie Xiaozhou was taken aback by the mermaid's behavior just now.

He was absent-minded for a moment, forgetting that he was in the bottom of the sea.When he reacted, he found that he could breathe under the sea.

He tried to speak, but could only make a gurgling sound.

The mermaid hugged the human boy with one arm, flicked its tail, and swam deeper.

The sun shines into the sea level.

Seen from below, the beams of light became solid, as if the bright sunlight could be grasped by reaching out.

Even if Xie Xiaozhou can breathe under the water surface, he still can't learn to swim and can only be forced to hold the mermaid.

One person and one fish swam a certain distance like this.

Xie Xiaozhou felt the cold water gradually warming up, and a group of translucent shrimps swam in front of him.

The mermaid reached out and grabbed a few and handed them to Xie Xiaozhou.

Xie Xiaozhou took it.

Shrimp is still full of energy, constantly wanting to escape from the palm of his hand.

The mermaid grabbed another group and stuffed them directly into their mouths.

Xie Xiaozhou imitated the appearance of a mermaid, and also picked up a small shrimp and put it in his mouth, and immediately felt a soft, glutinous and sweet taste.

The mermaid pulled Xie Xiaozhou again and landed on a reef on the seabed.

Not far away is a flaming coral clump, and a group of unknown small fish swim around the coral in groups.

A stream of seabed magma flows quietly below the reef, turning the area into a natural hot spring.

The mermaid turned her head, and Xie Xiaozhou's appearance was reflected in her dark blue eyes, and her ethereal voice spread along the sea water: "Do you like it?"

Xie Xiaozhou nodded.

The mermaid stretched out her hand and gently touched Xie Xiaozhou's cheek with her fingers: "As long as you are obedient, I will treat you well."

This place is the secret base of the mermaids.

There are warm sea water, sweet food and beautiful scenery.

Mermaids have never brought other creatures over before, and this human boy is the first.

If it was normal, the mermaid's territory was invaded by other creatures, he would just angrily tear them apart.

But now that the human teenager entered here, he felt very satisfied in his heart.

This is his pet.

Obedient, very obedient.

As long as the boy is obedient, the mermaid is willing to keep him forever.

[Real-time heartbeat value - 60%]

***

"The heart rate has reached 60%!" Lu Lu exclaimed, almost in disbelief, "Could it be possible for him to reach 100% heart rate?"

Xu Ran frowned, and analyzed rationally: "It should be impossible. According to my experience, the time to clear the first level is three days. Now it is the third day, and number 2 should be back."

After finishing speaking, he said with certainty, "It should be only 60% at most."

***

Xie Xiaozhou finished watching the mermaid's secret paradise and was sent back to the deserted island.

The mermaid didn't come up together, but turned and dived into the sea, probably to look for food.

Xie Xiaozhou sat on the beach alone, waited for a while, and suddenly saw a black spot on the horizon.

He stood up, the black dot was getting closer, and a ship appeared on the sea.

A flag hung in front of the ship, which looked familiar.

Xie Xiaozhou stared at it for a while, and recognized that it was the badge of the Duke's family.And his identity in this link is the young master of the Duke's family.

The Duke sent someone to rescue him?

The boat docked and rowed out a small boat.The people on the boat said excitedly: "Master, I finally found you! Hurry up and go back with us, the master has been worried about you!"

go back?

He still needs to brush the mermaid's heart rate.

Xie Xiaozhou wanted to refuse, but his body was out of control and he couldn't act according to his mind.When he came back to his senses, he was already standing on the boat.

In sight, the deserted island gradually faded away.

Xie Xiaozhou grabbed the railing along the boat and took a good look at the deserted island.

This is another forced plot, does it mean that the strategy time is over?

I don't know how much heart rate I got...

wow-

Xie Xiaozhou saw translucent fish fins emerging from the sea, and then a dark blue shadow emerged.

The mermaid raised her head and stared fixedly at Xie Xiaozhou. The wildness and ferocity that had never been revealed were vividly displayed at this time.

He bared his teeth, full of anger.

ran away.

Disobedient, need... punishment.

A storm was brewing in the mermaid's eyes.

He wanted to overturn the boat, let the people on board be buried in the sea, and then take away his human youth.

The mermaid doesn't know what to repay, nor what to like.He just acted on instinct, feeling comfortable with this teenager and wanting to get close and touch.

In that case, this human youth should be his.

Just like the clownfish he kept.

Later, when the clownfish wanted to leave, he grabbed it tightly and swallowed it whole mouthful, without leaving even a single scale.

This boy...is the same.

The waves hit the mermaid's cheek, but it couldn't hide the wildness on his face.

The sailors on the boat also noticed the existence of the mermaid, and shouted: "Everyone, plug your ears and don't listen to the mermaid's singing! Young master, go!"

A servant came to pull Xie Xiaozhou.

Xie Xiaozhou shook off the man's hand, and stood on the edge of the boat, looking at the mermaid.

The mermaid began to sing.

It wasn't the singing voice that night, but another kind, with a voice that confuses people's hearts.

It's just that the plot of leaving is arranged by the program group and is mandatory. No matter how the mermaid sings, it can't stop the cruise ship from leaving.

The mermaid gave up singing, and the fish chased after her with a flick of its tail.

The propeller on the ship kept turning, preventing the mermaid from approaching.The sailors on the boat kept driving and threw their harpoons at the mermaid.

The mermaid was still relentless and did not stop.In the sea, he was agile and avoided the harpoons that kept coming.

But how can he compete with the tireless machine?After chasing the cruise ship for a distance, he finally got caught off guard and was stabbed in the shoulder by a harpoon.

The mermaid let out a low growl in pain, but her eyes were still fixed on Xie Xiaozhou.

Mermaids don't understand emotions, they only know that this is his.

He drew out the harpoon, ignored the wound on his shoulder, and chased after him tenaciously.

But the ship had sailed a certain distance, and the mermaid couldn't catch up no matter what.

【Ah, what a miserable mermaid】

[I used to think it was fun when Zhou Zhou lied to the boss, but now that he is forced to separate, I always feel something is wrong! 】

[Zhouzhou hurry up and stay with the mermaid]

In fact, Xie Xiaozhou also wanted to do this. He thought it was a good opportunity to increase his heart rate, but his body was controlled and he couldn't jump over the railing.

He could only watch helplessly as the mermaid chased after him, and finally lost his strength and slowed down.

Even so, the mermaid still didn't stop.

"Don't chase—" Xie Xiaozhou shouted at the mermaid, "You are free!"

The mermaid was a little dazed.

click-

Something fell off the neck.

The mermaid reached out to catch it, and lifted it up to have a look.It was the gold collar that I kept trying to take off, but couldn't.

Now the gold collar fell off automatically.

He is free.

The mermaid let go, and the golden collar fell into the sea, slowly drifting downwards, and disappeared.

But the mermaid did not feel free.

The confinement around his neck disappeared, but there was a chain in his heart, which trapped him in place and he couldn't break free.

That human boy... will not come back.

***

In the blink of an eye.

Xie Xiaozhou had already returned to the stage. As soon as he stood still, he couldn't wait to look at the big screen.

on the screen.

The mermaid stayed in place in a daze, and there were some other emotions on the face that originally only had innocence and wildness.

The host did not expect that this new guest with few fans could get such a high heart rate, and excitedly announced: "The final heart rate of guest No. 2—"

The voice stopped abruptly.

Lu Lu was a little strange: "How much is it?"

Xu Ran scratched her hair and looked at the big screen: "Let me see..."

On the big screen, the real-time action index kept flashing.

Jumped from 60% to 70%, and then from 70% to 80%, it seems that it is still increasing.

Xu Ran's jaw was about to drop: "No, no way..."

Shen Yueyu said displeased: "Why not?" He also looked over.

Coincidentally, the number on the screen jumped to 100%.

The other guests were all stunned.

The decibel of the host's voice exceeded the sky: "Guest No. 2 actually reached 100% heartbeat! This is an unprecedented record!"

"Don't the audience applaud and celebrate?"

The field was silent.

But it didn't hurt like before, and the first time they didn't applaud, it was because they were not Xie Xiaozhou's fans.But this time, they were really surprised.

100% excited!

After a while, there was thunderous applause.

Shen Yueyu muttered to himself: "How is it possible..."

The applause lasted for a long time.

Xie Xiaozhou walked back to the row of guests.

Lu Lu asked curiously: "Didn't you only get 60% when you left? How did you get to 100%?"

Xie Xiaozhou smiled, but did not answer.

He knew it well, the reason why he was able to get 100% heartbeat was thanks to the arrangement of the program group.

If he had stayed on the deserted island, he would only be able to get 80% of his heart rate at most, and leaving at the end would be enough to make the mermaid unforgettable and thus get 100% heart rate.

Shen Yueyu sneered: "Pretentious. I just won the first round, and we have to wait and see."

At this time, the voice of the host sounded again: "The first round of heart-beating strategy is over, please let us take a look at the second round of heart-beating goals—"

The voice fell.

Everyone smelled a strong fragrance of flowers.

They were in a garden filled with all kinds of flowers.There are hydrangeas, roses, rhododendrons... Of course, the most conspicuous ones are the clumps of roses.

A figure sits in the garden.

His back is thin, and when he bends down, he can even see the outline of the butterfly bone.

This is a painter.

He holds a paintbrush in his hand and draws pictures on the drawing board.

The sky is not beautiful, and the sky is getting dark before the painting is finished.

The painter stopped and turned around.Only then did the guests discover that he was sitting in a wheelchair, his legs were not conducive to walking, and he was covered with a thin blanket.

But precisely because of this, he is even more fragile and delicate, like a vase that needs to be cared for carefully.

The wheelchair rolled across the ground.

The painter's face appeared in front of everyone.

His skin was so white that it was almost transparent, even his lips were bloodless and sick.

"Ahem..." The artist coughed and covered the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.

As soon as the camera turned, the handkerchief fell to the ground with a smear of bright red across it.

The host introduced: "This round adopts the method of joint strategy. Your identities are—models hired by the painter."
