Chapter 54: Jun Rui has two forms

“Xiao Li, you rest here, I’ll go help outside.” “Okay.” Jiang Li nodded. She sat in the house and could faintly hear the conversation outside. “Did you buy so many legs of lamb for a few straw mats?” “I know the leopard who sells lamb, he gave me a discount.”

“That’s why, let’s clean up quickly, we’ll make lamb soup for Xiao Li to replenish her body later.” “Okay, mother.” These few words from Aunt Qiao made Jiang Li feel very touched. They had never met before, but Aunt Qiao was so kind to her. She was actually quite lucky. Although she was mediocre here, and even always encountered trouble, every time, she would meet good people. Jiang Li lowered her head and gently touched Jun Rui’s soft cheek with one hand. If it weren’t for Aunt Qiao’s family, the little guy wouldn’t have been able to be born safely.

She would definitely repay them well. Jiang Li originally wanted to go out and help, but Jun Rui, who was in her arms, seemed to feel insecure, every time she put him down, he would suddenly wake up and cry loudly. Jun Rui cried until his little face was red, he pouted his little mouth in a very aggrieved way. Jiang Li felt very distressed, she kept holding him in her arms and dared not put him down. “Ai, what a demanding child.” She sighed, just as she was feeling helpless, a crystal-clear bead suddenly slid out from the black bear fur cloak wrapped around Jun Rui. Jiang Li picked it up and looked at it carefully, it was a pearl! It was Jun Rui’s tears that had turned into a pearl.

But he wasn’t a merman, how could his tears turn into a pearl? When she woke up and saw that Jun Rui was still in his baby form, she was a little puzzled. After all, Jiang Nian was born with fox features, and soon after, he completely transformed into a fox form. But Jun Rui wasn’t, he remained in his ordinary baby form until now. She thought Jun Rui had completely inherited her genes, but now it seemed that wasn’t the case. Jiang Li suddenly remembered that before she fell asleep, when Aunt Qiao was washing him, he turned into a merman form when he encountered water, and after drying, his fishtail turned into legs. Plus, his tears turning into pearls, this characteristic.

She guessed that Jun Rui might have both merman and land beastman genes, which caused him to have two forms. Before encountering water, he was in his ordinary child form, and after encountering water, he would become a merman. Mermen can indeed transform their fishtails into legs after coming ashore, but it’s time-limited. This is also why they rarely come ashore. But Jun Rui was different, his land form had no time limit. This also symbolized that he could survive anywhere for a long time. In this way, his child wouldn’t have to worry too much about being hunted by the beastmen on land. Thinking of this, Jiang Li couldn’t help but feel happy for Jun Rui.

But now, she also had to quickly put away the pearl. In the original world, pearls could be sold for money, could they also be exchanged for spirit stones here? Xiaoyue was squatting at the door of the house, playing with pebbles. Now she was holding Jun Rui and couldn’t move, she could only ask Xiaoyue for help. “Xiaoyue.” Xiaoyue, who was happily playing, turned her head in confusion when she heard the call from behind. “Sister, what’s wrong?” “Xiaoyue, can you help me find a piece of cloth, I need to put something in it.” Xiaoyue nodded and stood up.

“Okay, I’ll get it for you.” Soon, Xiaoyue brought a piece of cloth that wasn’t too big or too small. She asked Xiaoyue to spread the cloth out, carefully took the small pearl from Jun Rui’s cloak, afraid of waking up Jun Rui in her arms. The moment she saw the pearl, Xiaoyue widened her eyes, her mouth involuntarily opening wide. “Sister, what is this?” She exclaimed. “Shh!” Jiang Li lowered her voice, “Xiaoyue, be quiet, don’t let anyone else hear you.

” Xiaoyue obediently nodded, covering her mouth with her dirt-stained hand, preventing herself from making any more noise. After taking out all the pearls, Jiang Li covered the cloth and asked Xiaoyue to call Aunt Qiao outside. Xiaoyue endured and didn’t say what Jiang Li had asked her to do, Aunt Qiao, who was confused, came in and asked Jiang Li. “Aunt Qiao, look at this, can it be exchanged for spirit stones?” Aunt Qiao reached out and lifted the cloth, and when she saw the pearls inside, she showed the same expression as Xiaoyue just now.

 “Xiao Li, where did you get these?” “They are Xiao Rui’s tears.” Hearing this, Aunt Qiao showed an expression of realization. They all knew that merman tears could turn into pearls. “Aunt Qiao, can these be exchanged for spirit stones?” “You can, but you have to sell them secretly. If people in the tribe find out, you will be punished.” The Black Bear tribe not only lacked food, but also spirit stones. If people saw this, they would definitely suspect Jiang Li.

If the Bear King knew, he would definitely kill Jun Rui. “It will be easy to be discovered if you keep them at home, Aunt Qiao, you should sell them as soon as possible, just as compensation for buying me lamb legs.” Aunt Qiao was stunned. “You child, what are you saying? Besides, you’ve done a lot for us, these are all deserved. Just now, Heidu also told me that he went to the field to check before coming back, the nutrient solution and seeds you gave are really amazing, they have sprouted.” Jiang Li was also very happy to hear this news. “As long as they grow.”

 In two days, they would be able to harvest food, and they wouldn’t have to worry about going hungry anymore. When night fell. Perhaps Jun Rui also felt Jiang Li’s fatigue, he didn’t cry anymore after being put down. Jiang Li was immediately relieved. Holding him for a long time, her neck and arms were already sore. Just then, the lamb soup that Heidu had been making was ready. Smelling the delicious aroma, Jiang Li’s stomach instantly growled, and her feet involuntarily walked outside. Aunt Qiao was holding a porcelain bowl, ready to serve her lamb soup. “Xiao Li, why did you come out? I was going to serve you the lamb soup and bring it to you.”

“I can put Xiao Rui down, I’ll also come out for some fresh air.” Aunt Qiao quickly served the lamb soup and placed it on the table. “Then come and sit down quickly to eat.” Jiang Li sat beside Heidu, Heidu, who was sitting next to her, drank the lamb soup in his bowl, his eyes secretly glancing at her. And just happened to meet Jiang Li’s gaze, Heidu quickly turned his head away. “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?” Jiang Li looked at Heidu in confusion.

 Heidu quickly shook his head, “No, no.” Seeing his strange appearance made Jiang Li even more confused. Just as she was about to ask further, a familiar voice came. The voice was heard before the person was seen. This dissolute voice could only be Xiao Liuzi. “Aunt Qiao, Heidu, what are you doing at your house? It smells so good! It seems like lamb.

” Xiao Liuzi, who had walked in, kept sniffing with his nose, and when he saw the pot of lamb soup not far away, his eyes widened. “I asked Heidu to sell the straw mats he had woven before, and bought some legs of lamb to replenish Jiang Li’s body. There’s a lot of lamb soup, Xiao Liuzi, come and sit down and have some too.”
