Chapter 25

The winter cub was so nervous that it wagged its little tail very fast and just slipped away from the mosasaur's mouth.

Dongkui jumped up in fright, "Wow! They are indeed insidious and cunning dragons, so bad!"

The little mermaids discovered that the mosasaur's tail was only broken in part, and was not really crushed under the mountain, but was pretending to be so to deliberately deceive them.

The mosasaurus swam by swinging its tail. If its tail was cut off, the mosasaurus would lose the ability to move and would be unable to swim and could only stay on the bottom of the sea.

There were very few sea animals on the seabed. The mosasaurus had nothing to eat. It had been hungry for a long time and finally waited until a group of little mermaids passed by.The Mosasaurus tried to shout, but he didn't expect that there was a little mermaid inside who could communicate with him.Mosasaurus then pretended to be crushed under the mountain and tricked the little mermaids into coming over, intending to swallow them whole.

Unexpectedly, the little mermaid was quite vigilant. The duck that reached its mouth flew away. The mosasaur opened its mouth and roared angrily. It moved its pectoral fins and arched its body, chasing after the little mermaids in an extremely uncoordinated manner.

The little mermaids turned pale with fright, "Why don't we sing?"

Dongkui was annoyed, "But I can't sing." If he had known better, he would have secretly learned a few tricks from his father.

The little mermaids looked at each other and said, "Neither can we."

A little mermaid said: "Sotu, you are the most powerful among us, why don't you sing."

Suotu thought for a while and reluctantly said, "Okay."

Suotu's lips moved slightly, and intermittent singing flowed from his throat. The little mermaid's throat has not yet fully matured, and his voice is immature. His singing is not as powerful as the adult mermaid, but it is enough to deal with a seriously injured mosasaurus.

The Mosasaur's eyes gradually lost focus, its speed became slower and slower, and finally it sank to the bottom of the sea.

Dong Zai felt that the center of his brows was getting hot again, as if there was a force in his body that was about to burst out. Dong Zai's eyes became confused, and he hummed a song uncontrollably. His voice was soft and waxy, which made people feel happy.

Dong Zai's singing was very soft, and it was even more inaudible under the cover of Suo Tu's singing. Only Yuan Xi next to her could hear it.

"Dong Zai?" Yuan Xi was surprised.

Just then Sotu's singing stopped abruptly.

Dong Zai’s eyes were puzzled, “Brother?”

"It's nothing." Yuan Xi felt that he must have heard wrong, and he smiled lightly, "Dong Zai is very powerful."

Dong Zai is so proud, "I'm tired of it, Zai Zai."

Finally, the near miss passed, and the little mermaids continued to swim towards the giant algae forest.

Suotu covered his throat with a somewhat uncomfortable expression. After all, he was still an unawakened little mermaid. Using the power of singing to attack sea beasts would cause some damage to his throat.

The little mermaids almost forgot the unpleasant memories that had happened in the kelp forest, and started playing happily among the vine branches.

Then they played hide and seek.

Dongkui and Yuanxi were responsible for searching, while the other little mermaids hid.

The winter cub hid under a leaf of algae and held its breath.The Dong cub was so small that Dongkui swam underneath it several times but failed to find him.

All the other little mermaids were found, except Dongcub and Suotu.

Dongkui scratched his hair, "That's wrong, that's wrong, we should let Dong Zai come to us."

Yuan Xi tugged at Dongkui's hair and pointed at the top of his head.

Dongkui's eyes rolled around. He swam quietly to the top, opened the largest leaf, and found the little mermaid hiding behind. "Little Dong cub, I found you."

Dong Zai smiled and said, "Dong Dong is a big idiot."

"Winter cub, little fool."

Seeing that Dongkui was about to quarrel with Dongzai again, Yuanxi sighed, "Dongkui, I still haven't found Suotu."

"By the way, there's also Sotu. I don't know where he's hiding."

A little mermaid decisively betrayed Sotu, "I saw him going that way."

Dongkui and the others looked in the direction pointed by the little mermaid, only to see Suotu lying on the stone where they rested when they came here last time, with his eyes closed and his whole body stiff.

Below is where Dongkui found the dead mermaid. Dongkui's first reaction was that Sotu was attacked by insects. He was so scared that his hands and feet were cold.

"Suotu!" Dongkui swam over quickly and patted Suotu's face, "It's so hot."

"Let's take him back first." Yuan Xi grabbed Suotu's arm and tried to drag him up.

Tears welled up in Dong Zai's eyes quickly. He stretched out his little hand to touch Luo Tu's face, which was as hot as Zai Zai's.

The little mermaids worked together to drag Suotu and take him back to the shallow sea.

Suotu's father, Fia, went to the Great Trench, and his other father, Tinglan, was left at home.

Arriving at the Qianhai area, Dongkui shouted in a panic: "Uncle Tinglan!"

After hearing the words, Ting Lan swam out and saw the unconscious Suo Tu. Ting Lan was a little stunned. He bent down and checked the corner of Suo Tu's eyes, and blue patterns were looming.

Ting Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said to the anxious little mermaids: "Suotu is fine. He is about to awaken his patterns."

"Wow~" the little mermaids exclaimed at the same time. Suotu was indeed the most powerful little mermaid among them. He awakened the pattern more than half a year after breaking out of his shell.

Tinglan smiled softly and said, "Don't worry, it will be your turn soon."

The little mermaids looked longingly, they really wanted to awaken the patterns quickly.

"Patterns?" Dong Zai asked softly.

Ting Lan said briskly: "Yes, Dong Zai will be able to awaken the patterns soon."

Now that Suotu is in good health and the other little mermaids have dispersed, the winter cub swam back to the small stone house with its little tail wagging.

Dong Zai swam up to Jiali and called hesitantly, "Dad?"

Jiali was feeding the fish. He spread out a handful of meat paste, washed his hands, turned around and looked at Dong Zai, "Zai Zai, what's wrong?"

Dong Zai touched his eyebrows and said, "Zai Zai, Tu Wen."

Dad, Zai Zai seems to be awakening his patterns.

"Silly Zaizai, the pattern is here." Jia Li tapped the corner of Dong Zai's eye with her fingertips.

"Huh?" Dong Zai was confused, wasn't Zai Zai's awakening pattern?

Jia Li picked up the little mermaid and said, "Let's not worry. Sooner or later, Zai Zai will wake up and become as powerful as his father when he grows up."

Although Lei Zhe mentioned that Zai Zai might have awakened the patterns during the underwater storm, but after that, there were no patterns appearing in the corners of Dong Zai's eyes, so Jia Li could only conclude that Ari was blind and saw it wrong.

Dongcub quickly forgot about this incident and happily played with the fish's tail.

On the third day, Suotu successfully awakened the pattern. His pattern was leaf-shaped and very beautiful.

Sotu inherited Fia's bloodline and will definitely become a powerful mermaid in the future.

Following Suotu, the little mermaids in the shallow sea area gradually awakened to patterns, including Dongkui, Yuanxi and the others.Several little mermaids learn to sing at the door every day, and they are very sung.

Dongkui comforted her and said, "Don't be sad, winter cub. We broke out of our shells early and it will be your turn to wake up soon."

Dong Zai sucked the fish tail and raised his head blankly, "Huh?"

Well, the winter cub doesn't look sad.

The weather has been so hot recently that some mermaids can't stand it anymore and have moved to live in the giant kelp forest.

This morning, Jiali picked up the winter cub that had just woken up, holding a fishing net in one hand, and went to trade with Qihe.

Jiali emerged from the water, raised her hands to push away her wet hair, and swam to the shore.

Qihe had just arrived. He wiped the sweat from his face. During this time, Qihe had tanned a lot. "I need a lot of bugs, do you still have them?"

"We haven't had rain in months. We can't find food. Many orcs in the tribe are starving to death."

Jiali only understood a few words and roughly guessed the meaning of Qihe's words. It seemed that the drought situation on the mainland was really serious.

Dongzi shook his head, there was no Chongchong.

Qihe was a little disappointed. After making an appointment with Jiali for the next trading time, Qihe transformed into a giant eagle and flew to the mainland with a flap of his wings.

There are many interesting things in Qihe's tribe, and Jiali is very satisfied with these transactions.

This time Qihe brought a bag of fruit, which was sour and sweet. Jiali couldn't get used to it, but Dongzai liked it very much.

It took a long time for the little fish cub to grow up, but half a month ago, the winter cub no longer had to eat meaty paste.

Although...the only fish that Dongbai can bite at the moment are bighead fish and fin fish.

Dong Zai hugged the fin fish that was bigger than him and ate it with his head buried in it.

Jia Li concentrated on counting the small fishes, counting them over and over again, but the number seemed wrong, "It seems that there are a few missing, Zai Zai, did you eat them secretly?"

Dong Zai pouted and said unhappily: "Zai Zai didn't eat it secretly."

"Then why is there less?" Jia Li turned to ask Little Gray Whale, suspiciously, "Little Hui Hui, did you eat it secretly?"

The little gray whale used its big head to cup Jiali's tail, "Hmph!"

"Okay, okay, I understand, you didn't eat it secretly." Jia Li gritted her teeth, "Don't let me know who ate it secretly, I can't kill him!"

In the small white room next door, Dongkui was hiding under the bed with a big-headed fish in his mouth, "Uh-huh, it's so delicious."

The Great Trench thousands of miles away.

It was only after the mermaids arrived at the Great Trench three months ago that they realized the seriousness of the problem.

The mermaids stopped complaining and even carved out an undersea mountain to completely block dozens of wide gaps.

I don’t know what happened in other sea areas, but scarred mermaids and sea beasts kept coming across the trench, but after the passage was blocked, it would be difficult for them to come over.

The sea is vast, and it is easy for a mermaid to lose his way around it. If he can find this sea area, it will be a skill.

Ari stretched, "I can finally go back."

The black-tailed mermaid swam out of the darkness. He raised his eyes, his eyes were dark and deep, with a soul-stirring beauty. He flicked his tail and smashed a rock.

This is an adult fish.

The mermaid next to him shouted: "Han Zhan, get ready to go back."

The black-tailed mermaid turned his face sideways, and the mysterious patterns at the corners of his eyes made his handsome face even more eerie.
