Your Majesty, the princess ran away again!

Chapter 196 Crying Fish

The further they walked in, the slipperier the ground became. Jun Zhuoyuan half turned around and supported Mu Nanyan, "Slow down, the ground is slippery."

Mu Nanyan didn't hold back and held onto his arm tightly. It wasn't that she was being pretentious. The ground was really slippery and sticky, as if millions of snails were crawling across it. "Jun Zhuoyuan, do you think there are any monsters in there?"

"Hmm?" Jun Zhuoyuan shook his head, "I don't know."

Forget it, you have no sense of humor. You have to show a fearful expression to satisfy her abnormal psychology, hehehe~

The two walked for a long time before they finally heard a voice. Although it was a little vague, they could tell that the voice was from the high priest. "Shh~"

Mu Nanyan was hunched over and secretly eavesdropping on the conversation inside at the door. Jun Zhuoyuan was originally standing behind her, but he couldn't stop Mu Nanyan's hand from pulling him down all the time, so he had no choice but to squat down with her and eavesdrop.

Mu Nanyan’s head was almost touching the door. Jun Zhuoyuan quietly pried the door open a crack so that she could hear more clearly. Mu Nanyan thought about it and decided to open the door wider to take a look. It didn’t matter that she took a look, but what she saw was beyond her imagination. There was a huge pond in the room, and sitting on the bank was a mermaid!!!

It seems that this legend is true. The high priest sat on a rattan chair on the shore and looked at the fish on the shore jokingly, "How is it? Is the new water better than the previous one? This time it should finally produce something for me."

The mermaid leaned against the shore sickly, "Impossible, forget it!"

The high priest slowly stood up from the stool and pinched his face, "Why, do you think you can still walk? Have you forgotten what is under this pool?"

The mermaid turned her head away. "Why else do you think I'm here?"

The high priest smiled sarcastically, "Don't worry, I have some patience with you. I won't be like the previous few who were too cruel and I couldn't stand it myself. What do you think? I have raised you for so long, you should give me something in return."

"Repay? We mermaids never go ashore to interact with humans. If you hadn't gone out to sea to fish, do you think you could catch us?" The mermaid's eyes were full of hatred.

Mu Nanyue was completely mesmerized by his beauty. This mermaid is really different. Her tiny waist is so nice. It’s a pity that her tail cannot be seen.

The high priest stood up and picked up a bag from the table. When the mermaid saw what was in his hand, her expression changed. "It seems that you are still stubborn. You know I don't like you being stubborn. Since you are disobedient, you must accept the punishment."

The high priest took out a black box from the bag, opened it and poured it directly into the water. The mermaid swam quickly to the middle of the pool, but it still didn't work. "Ah——"

The high priest slowly sat back on the rattan chair and admired the scenery below. "How about this? This is my latest research, specially prepared for you. How do you feel about it?"

The mermaid had a look of pain on her face and whimpering sounds came from her mouth.

"What? I can't hear you clearly, speak louder." The high priest slowly shook the fan.

The mermaid never opened her mouth, just stood there stiffly. The light in the room was very bright, and even Mu Nanyan could see the layout inside clearly even at the door. The pool was not big, and the originally clear water was now becoming turbid. Mu Nanyan listened for a long time and finally understood that the mermaid was forced. This old man actually hurt small animals, and she would not allow it.

Mu Nanyan stood up suddenly, which scared Jun Zhuoyuan. He thought Yanyan would wait a little longer, but it seemed that he overestimated her. Mu Nanyan kicked the door open, and the man and the fish inside were both scared.

"Who are you? Don't you know this is a forbidden area?" The high priest stood up with a sinister look in his eyes.

"So? Is this your reason for hurting small animals?" Mu Nanyan walked to the side of the small pond, squatted down and looked at the things in the water, "Can you still move? Come here if you can."

The mermaid had a look of horror on his face, the pain in his body making it impossible for him to be distracted.

Mu Nanyan saw that he didn't look like he could do it, "Okay, Jun Zhuoyuan, find a way to get it for him."

"You are the God of War Dongli." The high priest said this in horror, "How did you get here?"

"Tsk, of course we came here by boat, otherwise we could have swam here? That's a nonsense question." Mu Nanyue glared at him, who do you think you are.

The high priest was irritated by her, "King Li came to our Risheng as a spy? Hahahaha, is there no one left in Dongli?"

"It has nothing to do with you. Why do you have an opinion? Can't you see the current situation clearly? You are still so arrogant." Mu Nanyan threw him into the pool and gave him a taste of his own medicine.

"Ah--" The high priest began to struggle the moment he touched the water. Mu Nanyue didn't deliberately prevent him from going ashore. She just wanted to know what was in the water. In case she couldn't figure it out, she could still have an experimental subject.

Jun Zhuoyuan used Qinggong to fish the mermaid out, "Yanyan, where should I put this fish?"

Mu Nanyan looked around and saw no place for him to stay. "Put it on the chair. Let me take a look at your hand first."

Jun Zhuoyuan threw the fish onto the rattan chair, "Yanyan, look, this water is biting."

Mu Nanyan looked at his hands, she felt really unhappy. Jun Zhuoyuan's hands were her second favorite. His first favorite was of course his face. "It's okay, it's not a big problem. I'll give you an injection to stabilize you first." Mu Nanyan took out an injection of medicine from the space and gave it to him.

The mermaid lay on the rattan chair with a painful look on his face, whimpering continuously. Mu Nanyan felt upset just listening to him. She had no choice but to give him a painkiller, which cured him in one injection.

"Okay, now it's your turn to speak. What is in the water?" Mu Nanyan stood in front of the high priest.

"Oh, if you want to know, just study it yourself. Why come and ask me?" The high priest had a look of disdain on his face and asked him to come up quickly because all those things were in the middle of the lake and he hadn't touched them.

Mu Nanyan grabbed his collar and said, "Tsk, do you think I can't figure it out? I just want to give you a chance to survive. You are so tactless. It's great to use you as a test subject."

The high priest was no longer afraid. After all, he had the antidote. It would only hurt for a moment. King Li had already been contaminated by those things. Even if the immortals came, they could not save him. No one knew where the antidote was.

"You don't think you still have a chance to get the antidote, do you?" Mu Nanyan smiled faintly. She was not a fool. She could also research something like an antidote.

But her purpose was not here, "Tell me, where are the relatives of the little palace maid?"

The high priest understood, "So you are here to rescue people. I really don't know why His Royal Highness Prince Li brought a maid to Risheng to rescue a palace maid. Could it be that he has taken a fancy to her?" He knew that these two people were definitely not here to rescue the mermaid. There were only two people in their country who knew the secret of mermaids, one was him, and the other was the emperor. The emperor would never tell anyone else, after all, his life was still with him.

"It seems like you don't plan to tell it anymore?" Mu Nanyan increased the strength in her hands and pushed the man down little by little. When her hands touched the water surface, the originally turbid color around it gradually turned clear.

"This, this, why is this!" The high priest was shocked. What did this woman put on her hands that even scared the insects he raised.

"Why are you scared already? The best is yet to come." Mu Nanyan allowed her poison to spread throughout the pool. This time the water was no longer turbid, but changed color, becoming a pool of black water.

"Enjoy the medicinal bath I give you. Oh, by the way, I'm not a maid. I would be angry if you said that, right, Jun Zhuoyuan?" Mu Nanyan pouted pretending to be angry.

Jun Zhuoyuan smiled and said, "Yanyan is right. This bastard is really blind. Yanyan, don't get angry. It's not worth it."

Mu Nanyan wiped the water off her hands. She was really annoyed. She didn't want to do this, but she had to be forced to be the bad guy. "You keep an eye on him. Don't touch the water in the pond. I'll go check on the fish."

The mermaid seemed to have discovered a new world after taking the painkiller injection. She poked the wound on her body from time to time. It was still bleeding but it didn't hurt. Mu Nanyan was speechless when she saw this scene. How could she be such a stupid fish? No wonder she was caught here.

Mu Nanyan asked: "Hey, Xiaoyu, when were you caught?"

The mermaid looked at her innocently. He knew she was not a bad person. He didn’t feel any pain after she stabbed him. She must be a good person. “I have been here all the time. I was not captured. There was a pool of our tribesmen here before, and they were all killed by him. Woo woo woo~”

How can Mu Nanyan save a fish by holding her forehead, and it’s a crying fish?
