C300 Merman
"The wind blows?" Zhou Yi pondered over the meaning of these words.
The woman nodded and said, "This is the first time you've come to our place, so you might not be able to sense it. The wind blowing before the merfolk came ashore is not the same as usual, and most of them arrived at night."
"So that's how it is!" Hearing what the woman said, the corner of Zhou Yi's mouth curled up imperceptibly.
"Alright, Sir, I can only make you sleep here tonight. Lee and I will be going in!" The woman carried the sleeping Lee, pointed at the sofa, and said with a smile.
Zhou Yi immediately stood up and said, "Sorry for the trouble!"
The woman shook her head and didn't say anything. She carried Lee into the house on the other side. However, when they reached the door, the woman turned around again and warned, "Mister, please don't go out!"
"Alright, I understand!" Zhou Yi quickly replied.
The woman carried Lee into the bedroom. However, she kept muttering to herself, "I hope you won't come here tonight."
The woman entered the room and Zhou Yi closed the door to the living room before sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
He didn't think that his trip this time would be so smooth. This was because he was looking for something from the bodies of these Draconians.
"Wuwuwu …"
It was almost midnight when a mournful cry came from outside the house.
Zhou Yi suddenly opened his eyes and was about to appear in a flash.
"Sir, no!"
At this moment, the woman suddenly shouted in a low voice and stopped Zhou Yi's actions.
"Sir, you don't need to go out. This is the moment when the merfolk will hunt for food. If you go, only death awaits you, and they will follow your scent and find you here!" The woman begged bitterly, almost falling to her knees.
Lee's large watery eyes appeared in Zhou Yi's mind. Then, the hand that was holding the doorknob slowly loosened.
He could not guarantee how many Draconians there were outside the cave, and if he went out, he would attract more Draconians.
If his recklessness caused the death of Lee and her daughter here, he would truly feel apologetic in his heart.
The sound outside quickly disappeared. At this moment, Zhou Yi opened the door and rushed out.
As soon as he opened the door, he was met with the smell of blood. Not far from Lee's home, the entire floor was dyed red with blood.
At this moment, quite a few fishermen rushed over upon hearing the commotion. They directly rushed into the rooms with the doors wide open, only to find that the rooms were empty; there was nothing inside.
There were quite a few bloodstains on the ground, indicating that there had once been quite a few battles here as well.
Needless to say, everyone was well aware of the outcome.
The surrounding fishermen could not help but sigh. Although they were eating someone else today, they would eat themselves the next time.
Seeing such a miserable scene, Zhou Yi couldn't help but clench his hands tightly inside his sleeves. He should have rushed out earlier, otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.
"Alright, let's go back to sleep. We will arrange for people to take care of this."
An old man in the crowd waved his hand and said.
No one dared to waste any time. They turned around and left.
Zhou Yi turned around and saw that Lee and her son were already standing not far behind him. Zhou Yi quickly forced a smile and walked to the girl, saying, "Lee be good, this isn't a place you should be. Let's go back with mom!"
"Big Brother, aren't you coming back with us?" Lee looked at Zhou Yi with her big eyes and asked in a low voice.1
"I won't go back with you guys for now, but big brother promised you that after you wake up tomorrow, you can play with big brother again, okay?" Zhou Yi pinched Lee's pink cheeks and said with a smile.
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Lee instantly became happy and shouted for her mother to take her home to sleep.
The woman wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say it. Then, she nodded at Zhou Yi and carried Lee home.
Zhou Yi followed the men in the village and wiped away the blood on the ground. Then, he refurbished some of the buildings that were in a sorry state.
Since no one lived in the room anymore, Zhou Yi stayed in an empty room after getting the elder's permission.
This time, he stayed for seven days.
Zhou Yi originally wanted to go into the sea to find the shadows of those Draconians, but after some thought, he realized that his cultivation level was not high enough, and he was also in the territory of the Draconians.
During these seven days, Zhou Yi was playing with Lee and her group of children while sitting in his room at night to cultivate. Although his days were full, he still felt that he was missing something.
After thinking about it, Zhou Yi suddenly understood that if Mo Qingcheng was here to accompany him, she would probably be perfect.
Another two days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the third night, a strong wind suddenly blew on the surface of the sea. The fishermen were quite frightened and panicked. Several fishermen pushed Zhou Yi into the empty house.
"You guys just wait here and don't go out!" Zhou Yi turned around to comfort her before opening the door to leave.
One of them was the closest to the door. When he saw Zhou Yi's actions, he quickly rushed over and blocked the way in front of the door. He said, "You can't go out. Those Drakes will eat you!"
"Don't worry, I won't. Besides, I'm just going out to take a look. I've never seen what a mermaid looks like in my life!" Zhou Yi reached out his hand to push open the young man blocking the door.
"Mr. Zhou, I feel that Xiao Liang is right, these Draconians are really inhumane. If they see you, they will definitely eat you!" Zhou Yi did not expect the village head to be in this room. At this moment, he could not help but speak up.
However, he didn't have the heart to say that if Zhou Yi left, that mermaid would definitely find this place along with the scent. Then, the few of them would also suffer greatly.
Zhou Yi wasn't afraid of death, but that didn't mean that none of them were afraid of death.
"Ai!" Zhou Yi sighed helplessly. Since he couldn't explain it, then let them see his abilities.
Thinking about that, Zhou Yi waved his hand towards a square table in the room.
Not only was that table shattered, it was also very thoroughly shattered. In a blink of an eye, it turned into fine powder that drifted into the air.
"You … "Who are you?" The Village Head looked at Zhou Yi in surprise. Even the beard on the corner of his mouth was trembling.
"Who am I?" Zhou Yi smiled and said, "The kind of person you are thinking of!"
"You, you mean, you are a mage?" The Village Chief's beard trembled even more violently.
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "I am an existence even stronger than mages!"
Hearing this, the village chief's mouth slanted and his body slowly fell to one side.
The other two quickly ran over and helped the village head up. But when they turned around, there was no sign of Zhou Yi in the room. Only Zhou Yi's voice slowly drifted around the room: "Be good and stay in the room, I will ensure that you are all safe …"
