The water was unfathomable and there was no creature visible in black. Feng Zhaoyuan dived down hundreds of meters in one breath before floating onto the water surface and changing his breath.

The water splashed, and Zaza's head emerged not far away, shouting: "Grandma, there is not even a fish here."

Feng Zhaoyuan's face suddenly changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice: "Don't talk, listen!"

The ethereal song came slowly from afar, the sound was full of magneticity, entangled with emotion, and the indescribable temptation was as if extremely thin and soft silk threads quietly tied the hearts of the two. Zhaza was fascinated by the sound, and in his life, he had never heard such a wonderful song.

The two of them couldn't help but swim in the direction where the song came.

A blue crystal-like rock gradually appeared in sight.

The singing sound was from the mouth of a woman on the rock.

Her back was facing the two, and her long green hair blew with the singing like seaweed, and her upper body emitted a silver-white light, like a burning white flame, flowing and rolling. Her lower half solidified in the blue rock, and through the crystal rock, she could clearly see the long tail covered with golden scales.

Thousands of fish were coming from all directions, swimming around the rocks quickly, as if attracted by the intoxicating singing, dancing tirelessly.

Apart from the seductive singing, Feng Zhaoyuan and Zhazha could no longer hear any other sounds in their ears. The singing sound was like an invisible net, faintly covering everything. Sometimes it was sad and sad, sometimes it was gentle and sweet, which evoked the pain and sweetness deep in their hearts, and brought the heart into a lonely and wonderful dream.

The two of them had a fascinating light at the same time, and they couldn't help swimming over, wanting to see the singing mermaid with her back facing their faces.

Strange things happened. No matter where they swim, they will always see the back of the mermaid.

The two of them were also like being possessed by demons. The more they couldn't see, the more they wanted to see. Later, they actually swam around the rocks like a group of fish around them, following the intoxicating singing.

The sky went from dawn to dark, and the two of them didn't know how many times they had gone around, and they were still enjoying it.

With a light "bang", Feng Zhaoyuan's arm touched a fat silverfish, and a soft and continuous singing suddenly appeared.

Feng Zhaoyuan felt a stern heart and regained his mind for a moment. He saw a vast white area around him, countless dead fish floating on the water with their white belly. Zhaza's face showed an idiot-like look, and it was still swimming rapidly with the remaining fish.

The wonderful singing came into his ears again, full of enchanting magic, as if tempting him to continue his meaningless swimming.

Feng Zhaohara's face changed color sharply. Although he suddenly became alert at this time, he could no longer control his behavior. The singing sounded like millions of ant insects crawling in his heart, induced his arms to move involuntarily.

Feng Zhaoyuan immediately roared loudly, and the roar temporarily suppressed the singing. Taking advantage of his short few seconds of awakening, he quickly pulled off the corner of his clothes, stuffed his ears, and then knocked Zaza out with a fierce punch, clamped him with his right rib, and at the same time, he did not forget to grab a few dead fish and swam wildly into the distance.

The singing sounds like a tangible substance, penetrating the cloth that plugs his ears and drilling into the depths of Feng Zhaoyuan's heart. The soul-catching callers tried their best to lure him back.

Feng Zhaoyuan kept screaming, suppressing her inner impulse and resisting the temptation of the singing with her amazing will.

The lake shore is constantly approaching.

The singing became farther and farther away, gradually becoming unheard. It was about to disappear, but suddenly it suddenly rose up, becoming sharp and high-pitched, breaking through the air like a sharp thorn, and penetrated into the heart of the wind shining the original state.

His heart was as if he was hit by a thunderbolt. Feng Zhaoyuan's whole body was trembling. With a "wow", a mouthful of blood spurted out from his throat and splashed on the grassy shore. Feng Zhaoyuan dragged up the unconscious Zhaza, climbed up with his hands and feet, and fell to his head, and looked up exhausted and vomited heavily.

It's a horrifying voice of death.

When Zaza woke up, the sky was already dark, and a bright bonfire flashed beside her, and the grilled fish grease dripped on the flames, emitting an attractive fragrance.

When he wanted to get up, his limbs were sore and weak. Zaza stared at the fish strung up by the branches in Feng Zhaoyuan's hand, his eyes shone brightly, and he swallowed secretly: "What's wrong with me? Why are you here? My God, why is your head so dizzy?"

Huozawa handed him the roasted fish: "We went around the singing mermaid countless times, of course we were dizzy."

Zaza's face kept changing, and she obviously remembered what had just happened, and a look of fear appeared in her eyes.

"Eat quickly, aren't you hungry? Fortunately, I just saw the method of primitive people drilling wood to make fire in the cave of stalactites, otherwise you and I will have to eat it raw now."

"You saved me?"

Zhaza looked at Feng Zhaoyuan like a dream. The latter nodded, his face flashing in the swaying fire, his eyes deep and lively, as if he was in deep thought, giving people a feeling of extreme calmness and wisdom.

"Thank you."

Zaza's lips squirmed, and after a while, he said, "I, I shouldn't have laughed at you before."

Feng Zhaoyuan smiled faintly: "I forgot long ago."

After staring at Feng Zhaoyuan for a while, Zhaza scratched her head embarrassedly: "Actually, it is not embarrassing to say surrender, after all, life is more important."

"The three words I surrender are useless."

"What did you say?"

Zha Zha exclaimed: "Have you tried it? This is impossible. Han Gaofeng clearly said that he could withdraw from this virtual world at any time!"

"If you don't believe it, you can try it. Zaza, this is something I have witnessed with my own eyes."

Seeing Zaza's suspicious expression, Feng Zhaoyuan said sadly: "I surrender."

"Why is this happening? Why did Han Gaofeng deceive us?"

Zaza stared at Feng Zhaoyuan, who was still in front of him in disbelief, who gently twitched the bonfire with his branches, without any sign of disappearance and leaving.

After a while, Zaza suddenly smiled desolately, and no longer had a cynical expression on her face: "This is the best. I once swear that I will never say these three words again in my lifetime."

Feng Zhaoyuan was slightly stunned: "Why?"

"My home is in a slum in the city of Brazzaville, the capital of Congo."

Zaza was silent for a while, and slowly said, his sad eyes fell on the jumping bonfire, and the shadows covered half of his face.

"The city of Brazzaville is a very beautiful and prosperous place, and my home is small and very broken, and it emits an unpleasant stench.

In addition to poor black people like us, there are many rich white people in the city, and those white children have clean clothes and shoes, and can eat white bread every day.”

Because I was hungry, I beg along the street every day, begging the white men to give me some leftovers and take them home to support my poor sister, who was bulging like a balloon because of hunger.

But the white people avoided me when they saw me. The white children rushed over and scolded me for the black pig, hit me hard, and kicked me, while their parents warned them not to get their clothes dirty."

"What about your parents? Zhazha?"

"I've long been killed by infectious diseases."

Zaza's voice gradually became deeper: "My sister and I depended on each other until one day when I begged and returned home, I heard my sister crying from a distance. I ran over and saw my sister lying on the ground, with several white children stepping on her belly with their feet, saying it was a big and fun ball.

I angrily tried to pull the white kids away, and they hit me again, the tallest one shouted with a waist, "As long as I can beat him in a fight, they will let my sister go."

I agreed, but I couldn't beat him. He strangled my neck with his arm and said that the master had defeated the slave and asked me to kneel down and surrender to him."

A tear fell silently from the corner of Zhaza's eyes: "For my sister, I knelt down. I raised my hands and cried and said I surrendered. The surroundings were the unbridled and crazy laughter of white children. I knelt on the ground and looked at my poor Zhafei. She struggled to get up, looked at me slowly, and left without looking back."

Zaza's thin shoulders trembled: "I know, she looked down on my brother, and this brother who was kneeling at someone else's feet like a dog.

I will never forget the sadness, anger and deep disappointment she looked at me. From that day on, I swear that I will never say these three words again, and I will never surrender to anyone again!"

Zaza's sobs drifted far away in the night, Feng Zhaoyuan asked with regret: "What about your sister?"

"I've been looking for her, but I can't find her."

Zaza lowered his head, stopped talking, swallowed the fish in big mouthfuls, and his back was reflected on the ground by the flames, looking so lonely and desolate.

Feng Zhaoyuan was silent, and she didn't expect that Zaza, who seemed to be indifferent, would have such a tragic childhood.

After a long time, Zaza slowly raised her head and a cynical smile reappeared on the corner of her mouth, but it was a little desolate: "It's so strange that I'll tell you this. But it's all over, I've long forgotten."

"Zhazha, have you ever thought that the world we are in is really illusory?"

Feng Zhaoyuan was silent for a while, and suddenly spoke.

"What, what does it mean?"

"The fish we eat are not virtual images, right? Everything, forests, peaks, pools, and the ancient monsters and terrible enemies that appear, are all phantoms?"

"You mean, are these real?"

"Some may be illusions, but some are definitely not! You and I can really hear the mermaid's singing."

"But, but where are there mermaids in real life?"

"In Arab myths, there is a legendary story about Sinbad's voyage."

Feng Zhaoyuan stared at the deep water surface under the night and said calmly: "During the journey of sailing adventure, Sinbada accidentally heard the song from afar. The sound was wonderful and moving, like the sound of nature, attracting the crew to see what it was. But Sinbada forced the crew to cover his ears, because the song was made by the legendary siren. Once the ship was tempted to approach her, the siren would cause them to fall into the tragic ending of burying the sea."

Zaza stammered: "That's a myth after all. Can't it be said that there really are sirens?"

"What do you think?"
