Chapter 37 The Innocent Fool

Because the queen has been out of favor for a long time, and there is no strong and powerful family to rely on, and the son has recently fallen out with Lao Tzu, so although the attendant was so daring and dared to sneak into the palace late at night to poison, in the end this matter was reduced to a major event. , nothing more.

Another point is that when the attendant was dragged away, he couldn't even speak clearly.

Not only was he incontinent, but he also kept giggling like an idiot. He couldn't even interrogate him, so he could only be thrown out of the palace and put in a mental hospital, where he was left to fend for himself.

But since the attempted attack that night, Lin Xiaodong felt more and more wrong in the past two days.

It feels like no matter where he goes, every moment, there are a pair of eyes staring at him intently.

Although he didn't notice the maliciousness in his eyes, this feeling of being like a shadow really made Lin Xiaodong uncomfortable.

He couldn't take it anymore and asked the system: "What's going on? Did you really find nothing?"

"As I said, the people who see you are all servants in the palace." The system was also very aggrieved. It really didn't find anything. "You are a mermaid now. Isn't it normal for them to be curious?"

"That's not what I said!"

Lin Xiaodong scratched his head irritably, if it was really that simple, how could he be so restless all the time?

He didn't bother to guess this or that. When he felt someone staring at him again, the little mermaid turned his head instantly, turned on the cloud flying machine and rushed straight to the person, removed the shield and picked up the collar of the attendant: "Say ,who are you!?"

The attendant seemed to be frightened by him, opened his mouth, but did not speak for a long time.

But Lin Xiaodong noticed that his eye color was different from that of ordinary people.

The little mermaid frowned, looked at him fiercely, and suddenly asked subconsciously, "Are you Gu Xi..."?

"I'm."

Unexpectedly, he actually admitted it!

Lin Xiaodong's eyes widened, and he groped around his face for a while, but found no trace of wearing a mask or disguise at all. Gu Xi grabbed his hand helplessly: "I'm not here, can you understand?"

The little mermaid shook his head and answered honestly, "I don't understand."

The man sighed, and seeing that there was no one around, he briefly explained the cause and effect. But Lin Xiaodong's reaction after hearing that he was parasitized by the female worm was different from Gu Xi's imagination. Instead, the little mermaid asked him excitedly:

"Then will you lay eggs now?"

Gu Xi: "..."

He answered blankly, "No."

"Oh," Lin Xiaodong immediately fainted after hearing this, "then let's kill it quickly, it's really boring."

Gu Xi felt that this little fool's brain was probably full of yellow waste, so he became so stupid, and he didn't know how long he had a long memory for being deceived. He raised his face and asked, "Didn't I tell you to stay at home? Why did you come here!"

But just as his tone increased a little, the little mermaid looked at him with a hurt face, tears streaming down: "How dare you say it? They all say you are dead, can I stay at home with peace of mind? Ah? ?"

Although the mermaid does not cry like in fairy tales, tears turn into pearls, but in order to play the role of a little fool, Lin Xiaodong deliberately practiced in front of the mirror, the long eyelashes trembled, a crystal teardrop It slid down his cheek. Chu Chu's pitiful eyes, coupled with the small expression of forcibly enduring grievances, is absolutely amazing!

Seeing him like this, Gu Xi's inner guilt instantly overwhelmed the idea of ​​making the little mermaid remember, and he quickly apologized, but the little mermaid didn't want to listen to him at all, so he just flicked his tail and turned his back to him.

"I've always been good," he sniffed and whispered aggrievedly. "Eat on time, sleep on time, and count the stars every night to think about when you'll come back."

"Liar." The little mermaid lowered her head and whispered.

Gu Xi believed it.

In his eyes, it's really not surprising that the little mermaid would do such a silly thing.

He pursed his lips and stretched out his hand to hug Lin Xiaodong, but for some reason his body couldn't use his strength.

The man staggered a step and knelt on the ground. He is not very good at using the ability of the female insect to control the host, and the mental strength is not enough to support the activities outside for too long. Although very unwilling, in order to prevent the host and his own spiritual power from being hurt in both directions, Gu Xi forcibly cut off the spiritual link at the last moment.

Why did it suddenly go silent?

Lin Xiaodong looked back and found that the attendant was lying on the ground with his eyes closed and snoring from his nose. It was estimated that he would not wake up for a while.

System: "Don't look, Gu Xi has already left. This person is only temporarily exhausted, just take a nap."

Lin Xiaodong stared at the corpse lying on the ground for a moment, and said to the system, "I think Gu Xi must have never read the Little Yellow Book."

system:?

how do I say this?

"The setting of brain control is too much," the little mermaid said shyly, wagging the tip of its tail, "Although np is very exciting, I can't do it in three dimensions."

System: ...bye.

The system didn't want to take care of him, so Lin Xiaodong had to sit on the clouds and strolled around the palace.

People near Leng Gong also knew that there was nothing to see, it was all spent flowers and willows, and Gu Xi didn't mean to come back for a while, so it was very boring. It didn't take long for Lin Xiaodong to return to the palace, ready to see what the queen was doing.

When entering the door, the woman was kneeling in front of the statue, her hands clasped together, and she prayed eloquently.

People here believe in a god called "Mu", whose appearance is said to be born out of the image of a great human mother three thousand years ago, symbolizing equality, freedom and happiness.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaodong didn't bother, just stayed by her side silently.

When the queen opened her eyes, she realized that the little mermaid had returned to the palace at some point, and had been watching her for a long time.

"I won't stop you from going out," she said, "but you'd better not go too far."

The little mermaid nodded.

"Thank you," he whispered, "I think you're a good man."

The queen laughed.

"A mermaid once told me that," she lowered her eyes, "and then he died."

Lin Xiaodong was silent for a moment and asked, "Is that mermaid called Noah?"

The queen looked at him in surprise: "How do you know?"

Because your son's very precious fairy tale book has his name written on it, Lin Xiaodong thought.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the queen thought it was Lu Xing who took the initiative to tell him. She looked at the little mermaid with complicated eyes: "I didn't expect him to even tell you this, but I don't understand, then why did he send you to the palace on his own initiative?"

"How did he die?" Lin Xiaodong wasn't interested in discussing Lu Xing's way of thinking, so he changed the subject and asked, "I mean, the mermaid named Noah."

The queen closed her eyes and sighed.

"This is a story with a fairy tale beginning," she said slowly, "but the kindness of the mermaids led them to underestimate the ugliness of human nature, and it ended up with a farmer and a snake ending..."

Under the Queen's narration, Lin Xiaodong finally understood the reason why Lu Xing became what he is now.

As we all know, he is the discoverer of the Mermaid star. But in fact, Lu Xing, like Gu Xi, accidentally fell to that planet because he was injured.

And the mermaid who rescued him at that time was Noah.

Noah is a young mermaid. Unlike Lin Xiaodong, who has white skin and black stuffing, he is really kind and simple. In the process of taking care of Lu Xing, he soon fell in love with the handsome and gentle Prince, and regardless of the opposition of the elderly fish in the clan, he took Lu Xing to Jialan Lake and carefully healed him. sing for him.

As the only human on the Mermaid planet and the first to visit, all the young fish are very curious about Lu Xing. It was at this time that the Guards, who were looking for the prince, drove the starship and landed here. The other nobles on the starship saw so many beautiful mermaids, and they suddenly had evil thoughts, half coaxing and half forcing them to bring them back. central star.

Only then did the mermaids realize that they had been deceived, and that humans were not friendly to them at all. They did not regard mermaid as an equal life, but just a novel plaything, a kind of ornament to relieve boredom.

Noah witnessed all this, and he begged Lu Xing to rescue his compatriots, but Lu Xing agreed gently on the surface, but in private he had no good feelings for these mermaids who always persuaded Noah not to be with humans, and even intensified. Help the nobles persecute other merfolk.

In the end, in order to preserve their last dignity, and to stay away from Jialan Lake for a long time, the mermaids began to die one after another.

Seeing that the situation in the palace could not be concealed, Lu Xing no longer allowed Noah to leave the Rose Manor.

But over time, even the stupidest person will notice that something is wrong.

Noah finally collapsed when he found out that all the relatives and friends who came to the Central Star together had passed away, and it was because of his own reasons.

No matter how Lu Xing apologized, or even threatened the other party with blowing up the Mermaid Star, the young Mermaid ignored it. He no longer asked Lu Xing to go out, but just stayed quietly in the castle, lying on the bed in his room, and became weak day by day.

Until I follow in the footsteps of my companions and return to the embrace of death.

The system couldn't help but scolded, "Scumbag!"

But Lin Xiaodong was curious about one thing, and he asked bluntly: "Then do you know what Lu Xing is planning to do now?"

He has a strong intuition, the woman in front of him must know that Lu Xing was parasitized by brain worms, and he attracted this matter to the upper class of the entire empire through a banquet.

The queen's eyes were calm.

She looked at the fallen leaves on the open space outside the dormitory, and said lightly, "I know."

"In the third year after Noah's death, he finally woke up."

"He wants revenge, against all the nobles of the Empire, against his father, and... himself."
