Chapter Thirteen The Mermaid

"Is it really that powerful?" Chen Fei frowned, "Why did I hear that the old emperor pursued the national policy of rest and recuperation?"

"I heard? Haha, this is his wise place. Think about the time when the Rakshasa Holy City collapsed. That was when Tuoba Gui, the dog emperor, just as he sat firmly on the throne of the emperor, couldn't wait to launch the first large-scale war against the outside world. What kind of person do you think he is."

"The rumors are indeed just rumors." Chen Fei felt helpless and finally understood Chen Teng's meaning, "Because the outside world cannot threaten the power of the people's country, do you want to destroy it from the inside?"

"Yes. When Tuoba Gui was in power, the empire was naturally a solid piece of iron. Once Tuoba Gui died, the power of the kings would restrain each other. The empire was easily in civil strife, and this was our chance."

"Well, it's a really unexpected meeting, Chen Teng, because of your appearance, my plan seems to be changing."

"I just take you to know a real country of people."

Chen Tengyi said righteously, suddenly he found that Chen Fei's gaze was attracted by something. Then he looked over and saw a little mermaid fixed on the chopping board being beaten by a sharp whip. Tears shed when they touched the air and immediately turned into pearls.

He said: "The mermaids are the most precious and rarest breed of all demon races. The tears they leave when they cry can turn into pearls. If their eyes are blinded, cut off their tails, and humans can gain the ability to dive. Some lucky mermaids are lucky enough to not cry blind before they become adults. After being cut off the fish tail, they can even grow the same legs as humans. At this time, they will be sent to the yard of princes and nobles for them to ravage and enjoy. Mermaids are natural neutral creatures, handsome and weak in character. Princes and nobles love them very much, and they can even be said to be unable to let go of their hands."

Seeing the hostility in Chen Fei's body surged again, Chen Teng hugged him from behind and prevented him from making impulsive moves. "My brother, no matter what you see or hear here, you must always remember one word for endurance! The so-called endurance is a knife on the head of the word "heart", which may be very painful, but under the eaves, people have to bow their heads. Only by lowering their heads and bend their waists, one day they can be the master."

Under his suppression, Chen Fei's anger calmed down and turned into deep sorrow. He walked straight over and watched the mermaid fixed on the chopping board in close range. He looked at his blue hair like the sea, smooth and smooth no matter how torture he experienced. He looked at his childish face, which was dirty and dirty with blood on his face, and even when he was crying, he maintained his innate elegance, he bit his lips strongly, looked at him staring at himself innocently, and saw that he had not made any mistakes, but suffered from the original sin he was born with.

Angry, completely angry, Chen Fei clenched his fists and waved his palm.

"Brush!" The palm was pushed straight and hit the butcher who was whipping. At the critical moment, Chen Teng blocked his solid back with his solid back, as if hitting the hardest granite. Chen Teng turned his back to Chen Fei, smiling as the butcher looked over in confusion, then pulled the butcher aside and spoke incomprehensible language.

"Remember Chen Fei, don't touch that mermaid child, don't touch it, believe me." Chen Teng pulled the butcher down and started talking.

Chen Fei punched the other party in the back, feeling quite sorry, but he still felt waves of anger burst out uncontrollably. He was just a child and had not committed any sins. He was so cruel torture just because he was a demon clan. Is this fair? Is the Taoist Sect's long-standing doctrine of following the heavens and practicing Taoism for heavens correct? Because of the existence of this doctrine, all demon clans were beaten to death with one stick and regarded as the target of cruel persecution? Correspondingly, is my Rakshasa clan also a demon clan? Should he be born to suffer such humiliation and torture?

Looking at the tears of the little mermaid, Chen Fei was filled with pain: "The world should not be like this. The demon race is a thoughtful species and should not treat them as livestock such as chickens, ducks, fishes."

Chen Fei stretched out his hand again, trying to untie the shackles on the little mermaid, but was stopped by Chen Teng again. Chen Teng grabbed Chen Fei's wrist with one hand, with such a great force that he could easily prevent any movement of Chen Fei. Then he said to him: "Don't touch it randomly, I have already negotiated with the butcher that this little mermaid will be taken away by the eldest prince."

"Has the eldest prince taken away?" Chen Fei couldn't understand.

"I told you just now that it is actually beneficial for me to come here often. Maybe I can save the lives of one or two companions."

"Is it really possible?" Chen Fei looked happy, as if he was seeing the sun with a clear cloud.

"The dog emperor Tuoba Gui stipulated that each prince can raise three to five fairies as pets. When I was by the prince, I often introduced the differences between fairies and humans to the eldest prince, and showed him the way to subdue fairies as slaves. Over time, he particularly loved the fairies' pets. For this reason, he asked his father to expand the number of fairies raised in the yard to ten, which was the limit. The old emperor finally agreed to the request at the request of the queen.

Among all the demon clans, the tenth prince likes the creatures that are the mermaids the most. They are obedient and docile. If they are raised since childhood, they will be the best one when they grow up. As long as they don’t make them cry, they will never have to worry about aging and death. They can keep them in captivity." Chen Teng whispered to Chen Fei. Even if the people around him don’t understand the language circulating in Jiuzhou, they are still cautious, for fear of hearing the walls.

Chen Fei said with some surprise: "So, is the Rakshasa child I met just now also saved?"

"Only the Rakshasa tribe cannot do it." Chen Teng spread his hands helplessly, "Although I am very sorry, the Rakshasa tribe, as a brave and good nation, is really hard to control when he is excited, so the old emperor does not allow the Rakshasa tribe to be kept as pets."

"Damn, what am I thinking about? What can I do if I keep the demon clan as a pet? Even if I do this extremely insulting thing? Isn't I still alive in the most humiliating way."

"There is no way. Now the country is in great power, and other major sects are suppressing the demon clan. We can only deal with it and barely survive."

Chen Fei's eyes turned cold and he asked aggressively: "Chenteng, please honestly answer me. Has no one discovered your true identity for such a long time?"

Chen Teng replied: "Before I returned to the People's Kingdom, I had been practicing intentionally for a long time. Even if I reached the brink of life and death, as long as I did not do it intentionally, the red eyes that represented my clan's identity would not appear."

"If there is no red eyes, why are you called the Rakshasa clan?"

"What can we do except this for life? It is always good to save an innocent life. Being kept as a pet is much better than being treated as a reproductive machine, or depriving the organs of death prematurely. One day, our demon clan will launch a counterattack. Join us, brothers."

"Oh." Chen Fei still did not respond positively, because he didn't know whether he was considered a demon clan or not, or whether the Rakshasa clan was considered a demon clan. If so, would he have to break up with his companions and mentors living on the fairy mountain? Don't forget that they are also members of the Huaxia clan, and are members of the Huaxia clan who are cultivating immortals.

Chen Fei felt confused and helpless. To be honest, he was tired of Chen Teng's appearance, because Chen Teng allowed him to see the truest appearance of the world and a much crueler look than the scene I imagined.

"Okay, that's it." Chen Teng and the butcher talked a few words in the language outside the border, and the butcher untied the shackles that locked the little mermaid. At the moment when the shackles were released, Chen Fei saw a hint of surprise on the faces of the little mermaid and other friends in the cage. Occasionally, one or two companions were taken away by people from outside. Leaving here, it was probably because there was always a glimmer of hope in their eyes. What's ridiculous is that after experiencing a long period of pressing, just being kept as a livestock, just this little favor is enough to make them feel happy.

Among all the little monsters, there are only the Rakshasa clan who is ranked at the end and has red eyes. Only this child of the same clan as himself will never surrender, and there will never be surprises on his face. The children of the Rakshasa clan will always live in the strongest cage, always with red eyes, tear the cage with both hands, and never give up freely grasping with their own hands. This is a race that will never surrender, and is its own race.

Chen Fei suddenly felt a little proud. He felt that being a Rakshasa tribe was not a tragic thing, because this nation would never give up fighting for hope, never give up on what it holds freely, never.

Of course, this is just his current thought. The truth of the matter is always hidden behind the fog. Including his true identity, Chen Fei can no longer remember what his mother looks like...

Except for the blue hair and the lower body with fish tails, if you look at the upper part of your body, there is almost no difference between a mermaid and an ordinary human child, but it is just more delicate, gentler, and has a smaller skeleton.

Probably to adapt to life in the deep sea, the bones of the mermaids are hollow, naturally fragile, and easy to break, so they are not suitable for living on land for a long time, nor are they suitable for fighting. They are brave and good at fighting but have a completely different nature from the Tinky Wing Clan.

After the shackles were untied, the little mermaid's wrist was almost rotten. It was a long period of painful struggle and could not be freed from the scars left behind. A large area of ​​scales fell from the middle of the fish tail, which was also caused by the same reason. Chen Fei felt distressed when he saw it and wanted to heal it immediately, but finally endured it and did not do so.

Physical injuries can be cured, but mental patients cannot be eradicated. Once the slave nature is established, the little mermaid will be a slave for the rest of her life. As long as the master gives a little color, he will be happy to be unable to distinguish between the east, south, west and north.

Sad creature, no wonder its persecuted companions hide into the deepest part of the sea, attracting the coming and going ships with their singing and killing the crew members. It turns out that there is such an unforgettable hatred between humans and mermaids.

The fish tail gently patted the chopping board, and the frequency of the slap was fixed, just like the beautiful percussion music. The little mermaid seemed to understand what was going to happen next. She opened her arms to Chen Teng, but was not picked up. On the contrary, she was shackled and held her neck and hands again. The chain on her neck stretched out for a long time, and the end was handed to Chen Teng's hand by the butcher.

The latter pulled hard, and the little mermaid immediately left the chopping board and was forcibly dragged to the ground. Chen Fei could understand Chen Teng's intention of doing this, but he still felt that it was too cruel and could not bear to look at it again.

The shackles locked the neck of the little mermaid, and marched forward at the other end of the chain. The beautiful fish tail of the little mermaid left a clear mark on the filthy ground, and the scales were grinding off while they were struggling. Even so, its eyes still contained tears of happiness and light of hope. It probably knew that after being taken away, it was far away from the days when it was whipped all day long and there was no need to die early.

At the same time, facing the two-way choice of living in vain and going to righteousness with vain, except for the Rakshasa clan, almost all races in the world, whether humans, monsters, or beasts, all chose the path of living in vain. This is a choice made by life. Races that cannot endure humiliation for survival have long been screened out in the long river of evolution. Only races that live tenaciously and adapt to the surrounding environment can survive.

However, the Rakshasa tribe is an exception. The Rakshasa tribe never succumbs to any external force. Even the young Rakshasa tribe members will fight with the bullies with red eyes. Therefore, although the butchers here hate the children of the Rakshasa tribe, they only dare not bully them, because if you bully them today, you may find a chance in the future and bite you mercilessly, and never give up until you bite off your flesh.

The little mermaid crawled with the tail of the fish. The butcher waved to the two behind him and said something incomprehensible language. Chen Fei asked, "What are he talking about?"

Chen Teng replied: "He said this little mermaid is very expensive, don't be broken and killed like the last time."

"Did you mean it?" Chen Fei immediately thought of a possibility.

"Haha." Chen Teng did not answer explicitly.
