The next day, Ming Xi and the others went to find Huangfu Chen at dawn.
Huangfu Chen was planning to bring Abu to Ye Zhen, but he didn't expect to see three children squatting at the door.
"Why are you here?" Huangfu Chen asked in surprise.
Ming Xi looked at him with a smile. "It's too boring in the capital. Little Rou said she wanted to come into the mountains to play."
"It looks like it's going to snow today. Don't go into the mountains." Huangfu Chen said.
"Fortunately, we are just nearby." Ming Xi smiled and looked behind Huangfu Chen. "Why don't I see Abu?"
Huangfu Chen said with a smile, "I'm drying persimmons in the sun. They are already frosted. Abu is harvesting them."
"Then let's go help Abu." Ming Xi said immediately.
"I want to eat." Little Rou continued to be a foodie.
"Go." Huangfu Chen smiled. He didn't doubt the purpose of the three children's visit. "Did you tell your mother that you are coming?"
Ming Xi nodded. "Yes, but my mother has no time to care about me. We are going to the Baili Continent the day after tomorrow."
Huangfu Chen was slightly startled. "Why are you going to the Baili Continent?"
If he remembered correctly, the Baili Continent was already the border of Yuan Kingdom. Across the desert was the Kingdom of Qi.
"We are going to war with the Kingdom of Qi." Ming Xi said. Little Rou and Fire Phoenix had already left him and ran to the back of the bamboo house.
"The Kingdom of Qi has sent troops?" Huangfu Chen was even more surprised. He knew that Ye Zhen killed Cheng Zheng, but he didn't expect Zhao Rao to retaliate so quickly and directly send troops to Yuan Kingdom.
Ming Xi said, "It seems so. My mother said that this is a grudge between her and Zhao Rao. She doesn't want others to intervene, so she will go to the Baili Continent herself."
"What nonsense!" Huangfu Chen scolded. "When did your mother know how to arrange troops? Your father can't even see. Can they defeat Zhao Rao if they bring troops to the Baili Continent?"
"This is my mother's idea. Since she did this, she must be confident." Ming Xi said with a smile. With his father's ability, it didn't matter much even if he couldn't see. Zhao Rao's army couldn't win.
Huang Fuchen's face darkened as he said, "Isn't Shui Yichen going?"
"It seems … My mother doesn't plan on letting him go. After all, this is our family's matter." Ming Xi smiled. "Sir, I'll go look for Ah Bu."
"Stay here and don't go anywhere," Huang Fuchen said. "Don't bring Ah Bu to the lake. She's afraid of water."
Ming Xi walked a few steps before stopping and turning back in surprise. "Ah, you're not afraid of water?"
"Yes, maybe he almost drowned in the water before." Huangfu Chen said lightly, "I'll go find your mother and the others."
"Yes, sir." Ming Xi thoughtfully walked to the back of the bamboo house.
Shang'er was eating a persimmon while Fire Phoenix was squatting on the tree, her eyes staring at Ah Bu.
"Ming Xi, come here quickly. This is delicious!" Shang'er waved at Ming Xi. She had already forgotten the real reason why she came to find Ah Bu.
"Ah Bu, did you dry all these persimmon pancakes?" Ming Xi smiled at Shang'er and walked over to Ah Bu's side.
When the Fire Phoenix saw Ming Xi return, it jumped down.
Ah Bu didn't know how to speak. It just handed the persimmon pancake to Ming Xi.
"Sir has entered the city. We're the only ones here." Ming Xi held the persimmon pancake and made a fishing gesture. "Let's go fishing."
"Okay." Shang'er immediately called out.
Ah Bu's expression changed and it shook its head vigorously.
Shang'er looked at Ah Bu seriously. "Are you afraid?"
"Sir said she's afraid of water," Ming Xi said softly.
"You're afraid of water?" Shang'er looked at Ah Bu in confusion. "That shouldn't be the case. You should be living in water."
Ah Bu looked at them with fear in its eyes and took a few steps back.
"Don't scare her." Ming Xi reminded in a low voice. This Ah Bu seemed to be very timid. Apart from Huangfu Chen, she probably didn't dare to approach anyone.
"She seems to have forgotten who she is," Shang'er said.
Ming Xi frowned and asked, "Then how can we prove that she's a mermaid?"
"She dropped some scales. She must have been injured. She hasn't been in the human continent for long. There should still be fish scales on her legs." Shang'er said softly. She blinked and looked at Ming Xi. If she wanted to be sure, she could only see her legs clearly.
"Just let her go into the water." Fire Phoenix said.
Ming Xi shook his head. He glanced at Ah Bu. She was very wary of them, as if she was really afraid that they were going fishing.
"We're not fishing. We're just playing with you." Ming Xi said with a smile. After explaining for a long time, Ah Bu finally believed that he wasn't lying to her.
"Ignore them. Is there anything else to eat? I'm hungry! "Shang'er grabbed Ah Bu's hand and rubbed her stomach.
"Ah ah!" Ah Bu retracted her hand in fear. She looked at Shang'er with a look of reverence. She almost knelt down.
Shang'er really didn't know what to say about her fear.
Ah Bu brought Shang'er to the kitchen. There was still a lot of food. She made a bowl of noodles for Shang'er.
"Me too!" Fire Phoenix hadn't eaten all day. When he saw Shang'er eating noodles, he was almost drooling.
"You can't fight with me." Shang'er protected Fire Phoenix. She raised her eyes and looked at Fire Phoenix.
Fire Phoenix pounced. The noodles in Shang'er's hand accidentally fell on Ah Bu's skirt. Both of their clothes were dirty.
Ah Bu pouted and glared at Fire Phoenix angrily.
"I … I didn't do it on purpose." Fire Phoenix said awkwardly. "I'm just hungry."
"Your skirt is drenched. Mine is also dirty. Bring me to change." Shang'er shouted. She pointed at Fire Phoenix and scolded, "Let's just starve you to death."
Although Ah Bu didn't really understand what they were saying, she could understand Shang'er's meaning. Moreover, she didn't dare to refuse.
"Aiya." Ah Bu pointed at the house and brought Shang'er to change.
Shang'er took out two sets of clothes from her space. One of them was a bit bigger. "Ah Bu, this is for you. You're wearing too plain. Girls need to be pretty. That's what Madam said."
Ah Bu stared blankly at Shang'er.
"Hurry up and put it on!" Shang'er urged. She had already put on the clothes. She turned around and saw Ah Bu standing there holding the clothes. She was stunned. "You don't know how to put it on? Let me help you. "
Ah Bu wanted to avoid it, but found that she couldn't move.
Shang'er took off Ah Bu's wet, coarse clothes. She looked down at her legs. Sure enough, there were obvious fish scales. Moreover, they were covered by spiritual energy. If an ordinary person saw them, they definitely wouldn't be able to see them.
"Don't enter the water." Shang'er said to Ah Bu in a strange language. "Once you enter the water, you'll reveal your tail. If someone sees you, they'll kill you."
"You … can speak our language?" Ah Bu looked at Shang'er in shock. "Then do you know who I am?"
Shang'er looked at her seriously. "How did you get here? Don't you know who you are? "
"I … I forgot." Ah Bu shook her head. She couldn't remember anything, but she knew that the place she used to live was definitely not like this.
