Chapter 704 Mermaid
"Where does the singing come from?"
Zhang Tuohai immediately became alert.
The experience from so many worlds told him that he should be cautious and alert to any abnormal situation, because it might mean trouble, and big trouble!
"Can Xiao Ai find the source of the singing?"
Zhang Tuohai asked.
The port area is really too big, the lighting is not good, and there are flames everywhere, so it is quite difficult to find the source of the sound.
"At 2 o'clock , the straight-line distance is 1,205 meters."
Xiao Ai said.
Zhang Tuohai looked over.
His helmet is equipped with a night vision system, so even in such a complex lighting situation, he can still see clearly what is happening in the distance.
Gradually zooming in on the scenery in that area, Zhang Tuohai finally saw a figure sitting on a floating beacon light, humming a song softly. Zhang Tuohai couldn't understand the lyrics, but he could feel that the melody was ethereal and there was a hint of sad sighs in the middle.
"Let's go and have a look."
Zhang Tuohai guessed that the other party was most likely an indigenous person. If he was a player, he would have run away long ago. Who would stay here to sing?
If we can communicate, maybe we can get some side quests or something, or at least we can find out the situation.
After making up his mind, Zhang Tuohai flew towards his target.
However, before leaving, he arranged for ten self-propelled machines with electromagnetic cannons to provide fire support from a distance, and a flying gasoline saw was also launched into the air and on standby .
After everything was ready, he flew over slowly.
From a distance, the figure sitting on the beacon light looked thin and petite, like a woman.
When he flew near the beacon light, Zhang Tuohai discovered that he was wrong. That was not a woman, but a mermaid.
It is the "normal version" with a human upper body and a fish tail in the lower body, rather than the evil version with a human body and a fish head.
Her skin is wheat-colored, and her long chestnut hair covers most of her thin back, making her look slender and weak.
However, Zhang Tuohai did not relax his vigilance because of this. He carefully went around to the front.
"Who are you?"
The mermaid first saw Zhang Tuohai floating in the air. A look of astonishment appeared on her face. One hand immediately grasped a shining pearl on the necklace on her chest. The pearl was sparkling with light, and fine golden runes could be vaguely seen.
It’s obvious at first glance that it’s not an ordinary item, but I don’t know whether it’s a weapon or armor.
"I'm a traveler who happened to pass by here and heard someone singing, so I came to take a look. Don't worry, I have no ill intentions."
Zhang Tuohai spread out his hands so that the other party could see that he had no weapons in his hands.
At the same time, he also activated the sound and light hypnosis system on the electromagnetic armor.
In order to prevent the other party from having any special means of perception, Zhang Tuohai deliberately lowered the frequency and reduced the effect. Although it was not possible to completely hypnotize the other party, it could greatly increase the credibility of the words and make it easier for the other party to subconsciously believe and approach him.
"So you are a traveler? Then you must have seen a lot of scenery in other places. Can you share it with me? I am willing to exchange my singing with you. By the way, my name is Jinse, what is yours?"
As Jinse spoke, she moved to the side, wanting Zhang Tuohai to sit over there as well.
However, she forgot that she was sitting on a beacon.
This thing was floating to begin with, and once her body's center of gravity shifted, the beacon flipped over.
Plop!
Jinse fell into the water.
Zhang Tuohai: “…”
Crash——
Jinse emerged from the water: "Sorry, I forgot, this is not a reef, hiss——"
Jinse's expression tensed and she seemed a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt?"
Zhang Tuohai asked.
"I was hurt by that old witch. I'm a little injured. It will heal after a while."
Jinse said this, pushing aside her long chestnut hair that was scattered on her back.
On her smooth back, there was a scar more than a foot long and deep enough to see the bone.
The wound was simply wrapped with water plants, leaving much of it exposed. The edges of the water plants were stained red with blood.
"That won't work. If you don't take good care of it, it will easily get infected. I have treatment equipment. Do you want to come over and try?"
Zhang Tuohai tried to make an invitation.
"Well, okay, thank you very much."
Jinse said with her head down.
According to her normal personality, she would not easily leave the area she is familiar with.
However, she felt in her heart that the man in front of her was trustworthy, and she agreed unknowingly.
"Come with me ."
Zhang Tuohai led the way in front and guided Jinse to the shore.
Looking at the fine gravel on the roadbed on the shore, Jinse hesitated.
She has no legs, so if she wants to get ashore she can only jump by relying on the fish's tail. However, there are too many gravels on the shore, and it is easy to cut her scales.
Just as she hesitated, a self-propelled machine came out pushing a small cart.
There was also a huge bathtub on the cart, which was filled with water.
"please."
Zhang Tuohai helped Jinse jump into the bathtub.
The self-propelled machine changed direction and pushed the cart into the car.
"Why does it feel weird?" Jinse grabbed both sides of the bathtub with her hands. This novel experience made her feel a little at a loss .
However, she was soon dazzled by the strange facilities around her. She looked left and right like a curious baby.
"What is this?"
Jinse asked, pointing at a strange metal box from which a familiar smell wafted.
"Don't ask so many questions, kid. The most important thing now is to heal your wounds first."
Zhang Tuohai pushed the cart and accelerated towards the treatment chamber.
He couldn't tell Jinse that this box was used to smoke fish, right?
Moreover, there are many smoked products hanging inside.
God knows what Jinse would look like when she saw this scene.
He wouldn't take such a risk before confirming the relationship between Jinse and the fish.
"Okay, go in and lie down."
Zhang Tuohai pushed him to the front of the medical cabin.
"I've seen this before. It's a human coffin. The people on the shore put the bodies in it and then pushed it into the sea. I thought it was something good at first, but it took me a long time to open it. I was almost sick to death."
Jinse seemed to have recalled something bad and her face turned ugly.
"This really is a medical cabin, it just looks a little weird."
Zhang Tuohai explained helplessly.
In the end, Zhang Tuohai successfully made Jinse lie down by relying on the sound and light persuasion technology of the armor.
"This function is really useful. If I can bring it back to my original world, it will be very effective in selling goods. Maybe I can become a sales champion."
Zhang Tuohai pressed the switch while thinking.
bite--
A microwave oven beeped.
