    When faced with fear, everyone reacts differently.  Some people will faint directly, some will tremble, some will be hysterical, and some will beat people, and Han Yu belongs to the last type.

    When a ghost suddenly appeared behind him, Han Yu, after a brief panic, immediately started to attack without any explanation, punching the ghost in the face with a mouth of white teeth.  The ghost standing behind Han Yu was knocked away without even taking the time to avoid it.  With a scream, the ghost fell into the underground river.

    Han Yu and Ning Ping were both stunnedcan they still be considered ghosts if they can hit them?

    ……

    Five minutes later, the ghost who was punched into the underground river by Han Yu climbed up the bank, looked at Han Yu with a sad face and said: "You, if you don't want to make friends, just say so, why are you hitting people?"  ?”

    "Are you a human?" Han Yu asked in disbelief.

    "Of course it's a human being." The ghost who stood up said angrily.

    By the light of the fire, Han Yu looked up and down at the man standing in front of him.  It should be a human being. I heard that ghosts have no shadows, but the shadow of this person in front of me is very clear.  After knowing that it was not a ghost, Han Yu and Ning Ping breathed a sigh of relief, but then Han Yu became confused.  Since he is a human being, why is he here?  This place is underground. Could it be that you swam along the underground river to get here?

    "Hey, why are you looking at me like this?" The person who was a little unhappy by Han Yu's eyes asked Han Yu.

    Han Yu heard this and asked, "How long have you been here?"

    "Hmm probably thousands of years ago."

    "Don't be joking, I'm serious." Han Yu said with a frown.

    "I'm not kidding. I've really been here for more than a thousand years."

    Han Yu exclaimed in disbelief: "How is that possible? If you are a human, it is impossible to live for more than a thousand years, unless you are not a human."

    "Sigh~According to what you say, it's really possible that I'm not a human anymore."

    "……What's the meaning?"

    "Do you know the legend of the mermaid?"

    "Mermaid? I've heard of it, but never seen it."

    "You haven't seen it, but I have. Not only have I seen it, I have also eaten a piece of meat from a mermaid."

    Hearing this, Han Yu couldn't help but ask: "Is it delicious?"

    “…It’s delicious, do you want a piece?”

    Just as Han Yu was about to answer, Ning Ping stretched out his hand and pulled Han Yu aside.  He whispered to Han Yu: "Han Yu, it is said that the flesh of the mermaid is the elixir of life. If a person eats it, he will not die. If this person really eats the flesh of the mermaid, then he said that he has lived for thousands of years."  It’s really possible.”

    "Really?" After hearing Ning Ping's words, Han Yu exclaimed in surprise.

    This is the first time Han Yu has heard that mermaid meat has such an effect, but Ning Ping will not lie to himself about this kind of thing, and Han Yu will not doubt Ning Ping.  When looking at that person again, Han Yu couldn't help but asked curiously: "Did you really eat the mermaid's meat?"

    “…Do you want to eat it?”

    "I don't want to. People often say that a thousand-year-old king is an 80,000-year-old tortoise" Han Yu shook his head.  Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ning Ping.  Ning Ping pushed Han Yu aside, looked at the person who glared at Han Yu's thousand-year-old bastard saying, and said: "This guy never speaks. He says whatever comes to his mind. What is your name?"

    "My surname is Wangyou can call me Mr. Wang." Perhaps thinking of Han Yu's words about the thousand-year-old bastard, Mr. Wang paused when he said his surname.

    Ning Ping didn’t pay attention to Mr. Wang’s tangled mood at the moment and continued to ask: “Mr. Wang, do you want to leave here?”

    "Think about it, but this is impossible. The starship was upside down when it fell, and the propulsion direction of the power thruster was downward. If you want to rely on the starship to leave herehow did you get in?" Mr. Wang seemed to remember  What? He suddenly looked at Ning Ping with surprise and asked.

    Seeing that Mr. Wang had come to his senses, Ning Ping told Mr. Wang what happened after they discovered the starship.  After finishing speaking, he asked Mr. Wang if he had brought him and Fulin here before.  In response to Ning Ping's inquiry, Mr. Wang nodded and admitted: "Yes, I did it. I am an ability user with the ability to move space. Within a certain range, I can move anything I want through my abilities."  Moving objects. Of course, there are certain restrictions when moving. They can only move within the same material space. Just like now, I can move you to the water, but I cannot move you to the water. Similarly,  I can move you in the water, but I cannot move you on the water."

      "You're a little bit tongue-tied." Han Yu interjected.

    "If you were left here alone and locked up for a thousand years, you would be as rude as me." Mr. Wang rolled his eyes at Han Yu and said.

    "Didn't you say you had eaten mermaid meat before? A mermaid will not die if it loses a piece of meat. Why don't you chat with the mermaid? Didn't you eat the whole mermaid?" Han Yu was curious  asked.

    "Your friend really can't speak." Mr. Wang looked Han Yu up and down, then turned to Ning Ping and said.  Ning Ping smiled and said, "Don't be as knowledgeable as him. But I also want to know what he said. You said you ate the meat of a mermaid, but what about the mermaid?"

    "Alas~ I don't know where she is now? Maybe she is dead." Mr. Wang sighed and said.

    As soon as he saw that there was a story that had to be told between Mr. Wang and the mermaid, Han Yu immediately became interested and asked Mr. Wang for the details of the story. However, Mr. Wang, who usually could only talk to himself, met Han Yu.  After this audience, the desire to speak is also very strong.  Han Yu casually asked, and Mr. Wang immediately explained everything.

    Thousands of years ago, Mr. Wang was a crew member of a starship. Due to his special abilities, Mr. Wang was mainly responsible for the transportation work on the starship.  During a transport of a rare creature, a mermaid, the starship encountered an interstellar magnetic storm that had never been seen in a century.  Suddenly, all the instruments on the starship failed and fell into a desert.  The huge impact buried the starship deeply into the ground.  Before the accident on the starship, the staff on the starship had basically escaped in the escape capsule.  Only working for three days and three nights.  Mr. Wang, who was lazing around in a corner where no one knew, was pulled away.  To be honest, Mr. Wang was awakened by the huge impact produced when the starship fell, but when he woke up by that time, it was already too late.  Mr. Wang walked around the starship and found that apart from the rare creature mermaid being transported, he was the only one left in the starship.

    It is impossible to operate a starship by one person.  Moreover, Mr. Wang is just a porter, and he doesn't know anything about the driving of starships.  Knowing that it was impossible to launch a starship to escape, Mr. Wang could only find another way.  I chose a local method.  Dig it out bit by bit.  But Mr. Wang is just a porter, and civil engineering work is not Mr. Wang’s strong point. In addition, sand will fall out from time to time while digging. Later, when Mr. Wang dug the current underground cave, he had to give up the original  plan.

    During those days, Mr. Wang had no one to talk to except chatting with the mermaid. As time went by, Mr. Wang had no one to talk to.  Mr. Wang and the mermaid have become good friends who talk about everything.  After discovering the underground river, Mr. Wang put the mermaid into the underground river.  I want to free the mermaid.  The mermaid reciprocated the favor and decided to swim along the underground river, and then find someone to rescue Mr. Wang.  In order to prevent Mr. Wang from waiting for that day, the mermaid cut off a piece of her own flesh and gave it to Mr. Wang before leaving. She also told Mr. Wang that eating the mermaid's meat would make her immortal, unless she ate the mermaid's liver.  Only then can this effect be lifted.  And then.  Mr. Wang just spent his time waiting until he met Han Yu and Ning Ping.

    Originally, Mr. Wang wanted to meet Ningping and Fulin, so he used his ability to get Ningping and Fulin into the underground cave.  Unexpectedly, when Mr. Wang went to wash up, Ning Ping and Fulin ran away.  When Han Yu and Ning Ping came to the underground cave again, in order to avoid a similar situation, Mr. Wang couldn't wait to show up, and then received a punch from Han Yu

    After listening to Mr. Wang’s story, Han Yu asked in confusion: “That mermaid never came back after that?”

    "No. I haven't seen her since she entered the underground river." Mr. Wang shook his head and replied.

    "It's been a thousand years, and I still don't know whether I'm dead or alive?" Han Yu said to himself.

    Mr. Wang frowned upon hearing this and asked dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by that?"

    Seeing this, Han Yu quickly explained: "Oh, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to curse the mermaid, I just felt a pity. You don't know, there is actually a big desert outside. Even if the mermaid swam along the underground river to the surface,  It’s also possible that you can’t protect yourself.”

    “…Is the desert very large?”

    "This planet is located in the Death Desert Star Field. Except for some oases where humans can live, most of the entire planet is desert."

    "Is there no sea?" Mr. Wang asked.

    "Even larger lakes are rare, so how can there be a sea? The underground rivers are rich in water. If she stays in the underground rivers, she will be fine. But if she is trapped in the desert, even if she  His life is infinite, so he has probably been dried into fish by now, right?"

    ??????????????????????????In response, Mr. Wang remained silent.  Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Ning Ping said to Mr. Wang: "Mr. Wang, no matter what, you are finally saved now. Do you have any plans for the future?"

    "I'm afraid the world today has changed a lot from the world I lived in, right? I don't know if I can adapt to life in the current world." Mr. Wang said slowly.

    Ning Ping nodded and said: "This is indeed a problem, and your current situation is a bit special. Immortality has always been the dream of many people. If they know your existence, I am afraid you will not be in peace by then."

    "What will happen to him?" Han Yu interjected and asked.

    "Maybe he will be arrested for various research, right?" Ning Ping replied uncertainly.

    "Do you know what kind of research there is?" Han Yu asked again.

    “Well… there may be whipping, electric shock, and blood drawing…”

    Listening to Ning Ping’s story, Mr. Wang’s face turned pale.  After Ning Ping finished speaking, Mr. Wang coughed lightly and said to Ning Ping solemnly: "Well, I just thought about it and decided not to go out. Life here is pretty good, although it is a bit lonely.  , but the absence of danger is not"

    "What are you afraid of? You can't die." Han Yu asked puzzledly.

    "Yes. You can't die, but living will be worse than death." Mr. Wang replied with a depressed look.

    Seeing that Mr. Wang was so frightened by his few words that he was unwilling to leave the underground cave, Ning Ping comforted Mr. Wang with some regret and said: "Mr. Wang, you don't have to worry too much. What I just said was all after you were discovered by others.  Things that you may only encounter in the future. As long as you can keep this secret, you can still live like a normal person. At most, you will be regarded as a weirdo by others. "

    "I won't tell anyone even if I die." Mr. Wang was silent for a while and gritted his teeth.  Han Yu on the side poured cold water on him at this moment and said: "That means just say it if you can't be beaten to death."

    "I did not mean that!"

    "You are just a chatterbox. You keep talking when others don't let you talk. If I deliberately induce you to talk, you might say it out unknowingly. Besides, you tell us  How are you going to explain to others when you leave here? This was a closed space before we came here, how are you going to tell others about your origins?"

    "Er" After hearing Han Yu's question, Mr. Wang looked at Ning Ping as if asking for help.  Ning Ping also scratched his head a little awkwardly, and after thinking for a moment, he said to Mr. Wang: "How about you fall into the water and were washed to this place along the underground river?"

    "Can others believe it?" Mr. Wang asked worriedly.

    "It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not, you must at least believe it yourself first. This is the most reasonable explanation I can think of. I really can't think of other explanations." Ning Ping spread his hands and expressed that he also believed in Mr. Wang.  I can't help you with the origin.  Mr. Wang lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally reluctantly accepted Ning Ping's suggestion.

    When you tell a lie.  You must prepare a hundred lies to cover up the one lie you have told.  When Mr. Wang decided to follow Ninh Binh’s suggestion and say that he was washed into an underground cave by an underground river, he revealed his origin.  All origins need to be re-edited.  Anyway, after a thousand years of changes, Mr. Wang's hometown has changed, and he doesn't know what it has become now. Making up a random place of origin does not bring any psychological pressure to Mr. Wang.  However, his experience over the years is a bit difficult for Mr. Wang. After all, there is a gap of a thousand years, and this gap cannot be made up in a short time.  For this reason, Ning Ping had to go into battle again to make suggestions for Mr. Wang.

    Han Yu looked at Ning Ping and Mr. Wang who were frowning and making up lies for a while, then turned to look at the river in boredom.  I heard from Mr. Wang that there are fish in the underground river. I wonder what the fish tastes like?  Think of this.  Han Yu got up and walked to the river, wanting to try to catch two fish to try.

    I don’t know if he was mistaken or something, but when Han Yu walked into the river, he couldn’t see a black shadow flashing in the river not far away.  Because the black shadow was so fast, Han Yu couldn't see what it was.

    "Mr. Wang, are the fish in this river very big?" Han Yu asked Mr. Wang without looking back, staring at the river.  Mr. Wang, who was discussing things with Ning Ping, replied casually without thinking: "Yes. It's big."

    "How big is it?" Han Yu asked again.

    "The small ones are about half a meter, and the big ones can grow to about one meter."

    “Then are there water monsters in this underground river?”

    "I don't know, I haven't seen it in all these years. What did you see?" Mr. Wang asked puzzledly.

    "It's nothing, but??I must be dazzled.  "Han Yu thought for a while. He didn't tell Mr. Wang about the black shadow he just saw. When Han Yu thought about it, it wasn't necessarily that the black shadow was an oversized fish.

    After giving himself an explanation, Han Yu asked Mr. Wang to borrow a fishing rod he usually used to relieve boredom, found a flat stone platform and started fishing.

    The fish here may be stupid fish, but Han Yu caught two in no time.  Since there were three people here, Han Yu planned to catch just one more fish and then stop.  After hanging the bait on the hook, Han Yu threw the hook out with all his strength.  Not long after entering the water, Han Yu felt the fishing rod in his hand sink.

    The fish that was hooked this time was very strong.  Han Yu almost lost his grip on the fishing rod.  In order to prevent the hooked fish from running away, Han Yu held the fishing rod with both hands and dragged it hard to the shore. However, the more Han Yu dragged it to the shore, the more intense the struggle of the fish in the water became.  Fortunately, the fishing rod is very strong. If it were an ordinary fishing rod, it would have been broken by this strength.

    The noise caused by Han Yu was quite loud, even Ning Ping and Mr. Wang who were discussing the matter were alarmed.  When he saw that Han Yu had caught a big fish, Ning Ping quickly stepped forward to help, and the two of them worked together to drag the hooked fish ashore.

    But when the fish left the water, Han Yu and Ning Ping were dumbfounded

    Mermaid!  ?

    A mermaid was seen struggling in vain with the scales hooked on her back by a sharp fishhook. However, after seeing the mermaid, Mr. Wang turned his face away and hurriedly asked Han Yu and Ning Ping to get the mermaid away.  Drag ashore.

    After all the busy work, Mr. Wang looked at the mermaid lying head down on the shore with a look of disbelief, and asked: "How could it be you? Since you are back, why don't you say hello to me?"

    "Hey, long time no see." The mermaid was silent for a while, then raised her head and said to Mr. Wang.

    "Yes, we haven't seen each other for almost a thousand years." Mr. Wang looked at the mermaid with a half-smile and replied.

    “Well, congratulations on finally getting out of trouble.” The mermaid said without any words.  Unfortunately, Mr. Wang didn't take this trick. He took two steps and came to the mermaid. Mr. Wang squatted in front of the mermaid and said, "Don't talk to me about anything else. Where have you been all these years?"
