Chapter 168 This Mess
Nangong Sanba sat at the table tremblingly. He really encountered a disaster today. Facing these two old werewolves with thousands of years of experience, even genuine demon hunters may not be able to get benefits. His half-heartedness was basically He was the one delivering food, so he still has lingering fears: Fortunately, there was no fight at that time. He took out the crossbow just to die more beautifully, without even thinking about winning...
Hao Ren, Vivian and others apologetically comforted Nangong Sanba, while Bruflei and Bruchet finally believed in "Peripheral" after seeing that all the aliens in this shelter could talk and laugh with the demon hunter. "Members" said that they were extremely curious about the amazing secrets hidden in this small sanctuary: developing a demon hunter into a heterogeneous camp is something that no one has ever succeeded in in the past thousands of years. Feat, they felt that once the news was released, it would be enough to cause a moderate sensation.
Of course, Hao Ren couldn't let them talk about this news, so he gave a few special instructions. The basic reason was that the shelter was in seclusion for cultivation, and the demon hunters were now powerful. Once Nangong Sanba's situation was leaked, how could this be done? The two old werewolves agreed that the identity of the "Witcher Rebel" must be kept secret for this reason.
A minor misunderstanding was finally resolved. Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief and quickly picked up the little mermaid from Nangong Wuyue to see how the frightened little guy was doing. As a result, everyone finally paid attention. The little one who was crying loudly just now had actually made no sound: she was lying quietly on the table, her tail straight out, her hands folded on her chest, completely silent!
Hao Ren was frightened all of a sudden. He picked up the little one and slapped her little face with a cry, and stroked her tail with his palms. However, Doudou had no reaction at all to these intimate contacts that she usually liked most. He closed his eyes tightly and remained motionless, his whole body was stiff.
The other people at the table immediately panicked when they saw this situation. They came over one by one and called the little guy's name and pulled his tail to wake the little guy up. However, all efforts were in vain: the usually energetic baby fish didn't respond at all.
"How could this happen..." Lily's voice immediately started to sound like she was crying, "She is usually so lively, how could she be so scared to death..."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Vivian patted Lily on the head, and then smelled the little guy's scent, "There is no breath of death...it seems like he is still breathing? Is he asleep?"
Hao Ren quickly put Doudou next to his ear, but he couldn't hear the extremely subtle heartbeat, so he put his fingers in front of the little guy's mouth and nose again, and this time he finally found that the little guy was still breathing: very, very slightly. Breathing, steady and slow, if Vivian hadn't reminded her, no one would have noticed. The little guy was indeed asleep.
"What's going on?" Hao Ren was confused. He felt the little mermaid's body was cold. "You were crying so energetically just now. Why did you suddenly fall asleep?"
Nangong Wuyue thought for a long time and finally made a guess: "Could it be hibernation?"
After saying this, everyone was silent. Hao Ren looked at the ice particles hanging on the furniture around him. Just now, Vivian's polar storm dropped the temperature in the living room to more than 20 degrees below zero. It has not recovered yet. On the table The hottest dishes were basically cold, and because the little mermaid was already covered in water, she was as stiff as a hibernating fish that had just been dug out of the ice... The little guy really hibernated. ?
The embarrassment on Vivian's face could not be concealed at all. She laughed dryly: "It turns out that Doudou can still hibernate. This is too fast..."
Hao Ren looked at his "daughter" with strange physiological habits in amazement. He felt that the racial differences were really amazing: "She can take a bath in boiling water, but she fell asleep instantly at minus 20 degrees. The creatures in this other world are so amazing. ——But how should we wake her up?"
"Put it in the pot and cook for a while?" Lily's ears pricked up and she made a creative suggestion.
This simple and crude idea was of course opposed by everyone. It was not that they were afraid that the little guy would be cooked, but that everyone was worried that Doudou would catch a cold. After all, the temperature difference was too big...
In the end, Hao Ren decided that it would be better to put Doudou on the table to defrost naturally. Slowly adjusting the body temperature should prevent the little guy from getting sick. Although this mermaid's vitality was incredible, he still decided to fulfill his responsibility as a guardian. Take care of her. This scene is very strange: in the middle of a table of food is a frozen little mermaid. People who don’t know the details may think that there is a circle of crazy people eating and saving people...
"Wait...wait a minute!" At this time, Nangong Sanba, who had been squeezed out of the circle by everyone and had no chance to interrupt, finally found a space to speak. He pointed at the baby fish placed on the plate with a shocked look on his face. "What...what's going on?!"
Hao Ren replied smoothly: "Oh, my daughter, she just came quite unexpectedly."
Nangong Sanba suddenly grabbed Nangong Wuyue's hand and almost burst into tears: "Sister, I don't object to your marriage, but why don't you tell me? Our family has a long history and we don't like flash marriages." Yeah - especially if you are still serving Zicheng..."
"Get out!" Nangong Wuyue kicked Nangong Sanba's calf, his face flushed red, "Are you still clueless! Didn't you see that this is a fish?"
A black and white kitten immediately jumped down from upstairs and meowed around Nangong Wuyue: it heard someone calling its name.
Nangong Wuyue was almost furious: "I didn't call you!"
Hao Ren covered his head and lay on the table, wondering if it would be easier to just pretend to be dead: Damn, this is such a mess...
When Nangong Sanba came up last night, Doudou was sleeping in the room. Therefore, the former did not get to see the strangest little member of this strange team. Today, they made such a fuss when they met. I have to say that the little guy is really A little troublemaker. Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue spent a lot of effort to roughly explain the origin of Qing Doudou. Of course, they did not mention the alien planet. Instead, they said that one day Hao Ren went to the beach for vacation and found a magical egg on the beach. The following is briefly …
Nangong Sanba's initial expression was "You're fucking kidding me", but Nangong Wuyue made him "believe" the story with his actual actions.
At this time, the meal was almost completely unbearable.
"It's a good meal, look at how you mixed it up." Vivian looked at the food with ice on the table distressedly, completely ignoring that it was all her own work. "I knew that after meeting the werewolf, It’s definitely up to no good.”
Only Lily was eating happily. This girl, who is not picky about food, had food basically at this temperature when she was pulling a sled in the Arctic Circle. She was very adaptable and enjoyed the crunchy texture of vegetable soup. Hao Ren was a little bit I envy her heartlessly.
"I'm sorry, we are really offended this time." The two werewolf elders were also very straightforward. They took the initiative to admit that it was their excessive nervousness that caused the gun to go off. Blufly looked at Vivian and thought before leaving. Confirming the Countess’s intention towards the “Day of Return”, “Then let’s get down to business. Is the Countess now interested in the Day of Return? If it is absolutely true.”
Werewolves are such non-commercial creatures. Even if the current atmosphere is a little inappropriate, they still have something to say.
"I know the purpose of your coming here. You probably want to confirm whether I, the old scourge, will come out when the day of return comes." Vivian raised her eyebrows, "You go back, I have no idea about the day of return. I am not interested, and I have no interest in interfering with the activities of other vampires. As long as you don't hinder me, I will not take the initiative to find trouble with werewolves - you can continue to collect your own kind and expand your sphere of influence at will. Anyway, I am Never mind. Isn’t that what you came here to hear?”
The two old werewolves unexpectedly exchanged glances. They didn't expect this troublesome countess to express her position so happily. Bruflei confirmed in disbelief: "Even other vampires are also preparing for the day of return. , you’re not interested either?”
"Not interested," Vivian glanced at Hao Ren calmly. This action was not noticed by the two old werewolves, "because I suddenly felt that there are many more interesting things waiting for me to do. The world is big. .”
The old werewolf couldn't understand the meaning behind this sentence, and thought it was the countess's weird habit of loving traveling and liking to join in the fun with humans. So they stood up simply: "Then what are we doing? I said goodbye, there are still many things to deal with in the clan, and when we come to visit this time, we feel relieved to know that everything is fine with the countess, and we will give an explanation to the clan when we return."
Vivian stood up, with a lukewarm smile on her face, and pushed the two old werewolves outside while shouting: "Are you leaving so soon? Not for a while? Oh, don't be so polite, eat Let’s have some snacks…”
Hao Ren sighed: Vivian is too fake. She said it very enthusiastically, but when she sent people out, she was short of a whip...
After sending the person away, Hao Ren and Vivian's eyes met at the same time, and they almost said in unison: "Dream Plane!"
