Chapter 25 Manman's troubles
"Tuk tuk tuk" Su gently knocked on the door of Manman's house. Although Suokes advised him not to talk about the child with Manman before going out, he still couldn't help but want to ask Manman about the child. idea.
The door was quickly opened, Su Qing raised her head and saw Manman swimming in the air...
"Xiaoqingqing, it's you, come in." Manman was very happy to see friends and neighbors whom he hadn't seen for a while, and pulled him in immediately.
The moment she stepped into the threshold, Su Qing's leaning body seemed to be supported by an invisible gas, and with a kick of her back foot, she floated in the room.
Su Qing, who experienced the weightless environment for the first time, was at a loss, like a drowning person, waving her arms and legs in an attempt to gain balance.Because of his too fast movements, his body swam up all at once, and hit the top of the spaceship with a "bang", the pain made him almost burst into tears.
"Are you okay, does it hurt, does it hurt?" Manman flicked the fish's tail a few times, and soon swam to Su Qing's side, rubbing his slightly swollen head.
"Little Qingqing, why are you so excited? If you like the gravity setting in my home, I can tell you the parameters, and you can change it at home. I also like the current gravity, it feels like I'm in my hometown."
As she said that, Manman wagged her tail and swam around Su Qing twice quickly, with a smile on her face and an innocent look.
"Thank you, thank you, no need."
Su Qing hurriedly grabbed Manman, stopped him from wanting to perform a few moves for herself, and persuaded him earnestly: "Don't do these strenuous exercises when you are pregnant, what if it will affect the baby? What about Sirien?" Didn't the patriarch give him a vacation if he wasn't at home with you?"
"Little Qingqing~ Why are you like Sirien, you don't let me do this or that. This level of exercise is obviously equivalent to walking. These days I am so boring. Sirien doesn't go out by himself. Oh, he still doesn’t let me go out alone. He was called by the patriarch just now to discuss something, so I finally managed to relax for a while, and you say that again... life of a pregnant woman is so hard~”
Su Qing didn't move for a while, and had slowly sank from the top to the floor, while Manman kept some distance from the floor because of flicking her tail from time to time.While acting coquettishly to Su Qing, he complained about Sirion's "excessive" protection.
"Sirion is also for your own good, it's good to stay in the room." Su Qing didn't think that Sirion did something wrong, after all, Manman is pregnant now, if she goes out alone, there is no one to take care of her if something happens.
The lively Manman was indeed bored by being asked to stay at home. Although it was not clear whether aliens would also suffer from depression during pregnancy, Su Qing decided it would be better to distract Manman first.
He noticed that there are many colorful nebulae in the star field where the starship is flying, and he rarely has the opportunity to see such beautiful scenery.
Swimming in Manman's spaceship feels similar to swimming. Su Qing quickly mastered the swimming skills, so she dragged Manman to the window of their spaceship.
"Look, Manman, does that nebula look like you?"
"Where is that? Where is that?"
Manman approached the glass on the window and searched in the direction Su Qing pointed at, but he still couldn't find the nebula that resembled him.
"Look, there is a nebula of blue, yellow and green mixed together. Does it look like two mermaids are swimming in it? I think it looks very much like you and Sirion."
Listening to Su Qing's description, Manman quickly found the matching Nebula.
The most central nebula is blue, just like the color of Manman's hometown in his dream. It is surrounded by a circle of lavender nebulae. They are extraordinarily thin, and the red stars blocked behind can be seen through them.Yes, the stars in this star field are red. They are of different distances, sizes, and brightness. They are scattered in this star field irregularly, like rubies scattered randomly, making the whole star field full of artistic atmosphere .
Most of the nebulae are black nebulae, they are thick like ink, rising and falling, forming irregular patterns one by one.The two clusters of black nebula closest to the center resemble two mermaids, and they are also covered with a thin layer of light green and light yellow intertwined thin nebula.
The intertwined light green and black nebulae look like a lush and vast forest from a distance, and the intertwined light yellow and black nebulae look more like a vast expanse of loess land.The two mermaids seem to have broken through the shackles of the tree and the ground, and are running towards their familiar hometown.
For some reason, Manman's eyes became hot when he looked at the nebula.
"Manman, what's wrong with you, Manman? Are you feeling unwell? If you're feeling unwell, tell me quickly, and I'll take you to find Russell."
Su Qing noticed that Manman's mood was not right, it seemed worse than before, such Manman made him anxious and distressed.
Manman raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eyes, smiled and said to Su Qing: "I'm fine, it's just... I miss my hometown."
"Your hometown? What kind of place is that, can you tell me about it?"
Su Qing saw that Manman's eye sockets returned to normal color, and his mood stabilized. He suddenly became interested in the mermaid's hometown.
"Yeah." Manman looked at the nebula in the distance, and slowly fell into memories.
"My hometown is called Xiya planet. Aliens generally call us Xiya people. Some people call us mermaids because our upper body is like a human and the lower body is like a fish. It is a blue planet, very similar to your earth. Like, but with less land. Usually we live under the sea, and only come ashore when we welcome alien visitors. The water under the sea is warm, we have our own lighting system, it is not dark at all, we live a carefree life life. Only our kind of intelligent life forms live on the bottom of the sea, and other creatures do not have high intelligence. Usually..."
Su Qing was dazzled by the white light shot from the nebula during the period, but was soon deeply attracted by Manman's memories.
Manman talked a lot about his hometown, his face was full of nostalgia, and his eyes were a bit lonely, probably because he felt that he would never go back to his hometown.
"Your hometown must be beautiful! Isn't there many little mermaids there? It must be very cute." The topic went around and around, and finally turned around to the little mermaid.
"Yes, you haven't seen the cubs of our planet, they... ah! I forgot!"
Before Manman finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and began to frantically search for something.
"Damn, how did I forget...why wasn't it here...not here...where did I put it?"
Su Qing grabbed the excited Manman, stopped him from continuing to look for things, and asked: "What are you looking for? I can help you look for it together."
Manman was a little nervous at the moment, he grabbed Su Qing's hand, and gestured anxiously: "Such a big black pearl, glowing with dark green light, is packed in such a big dark blue box, can you help me?" I'll look for it, and I'll be damned if I can't find it!!"
While Su Qing was looking for it, she didn't forget to ask: "What is so important? You didn't look for it before, why do you suddenly want to look for it now?" Ask yourself the wrong question.
"I told you, you can't laugh at me..." Seeing Su Qing nodded, Manman continued, "That's a black pearl that determines the sex of a mermaid."
"Ah?" Su Qing looked at him in disbelief, and asked, "You mermaid children still rely on a pearl to determine their sex?"
Manman nodded solemnly and explained the reason: "The children of our family are born with fish tails, and it takes a while to learn how to turn fish tails into fish legs, so it is difficult to judge the gender. Usually the adults in the family When the child is born, I will go to the place closest to the star core of Xia to choose a black pearl for the child as a blessing. When the child gets the black pearl, the gender of the black pearl will determine the gender of the child. My original I wanted to leave it to my baby, but I never thought it would take so long to conceive..."
After hearing Manman's explanation, and the room full of things that had already flown everywhere, Su Qing felt a black thread. "Isn't it possible without black pearls? Is there any special case where gender can be confirmed without black pearls?"
Su Qing's question irritated Manman even more, and his face was full of sorrow: "Yes... a long time ago, there was a mermaid in our clan who was traveling and couldn't go back to Star Xiya in time to find the black pearl. ...Legend that he turned into a bisex fish. Ahhh! I don't want my baby to become a bisex fish, no~"
Su Qing hurriedly comforted Manman who was madly smashing the sofa, and imagined the result of not finding the black pearl, and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.
"Okay, don't worry, I will help you find it together, and we will definitely find it."
The two started a carpet-like search, but they searched almost everything, but they still couldn't find the black pearl. The two lay on the sofa, wanting to cry...
"Tuk Tuk Tuk—" knocking on the door sounded, Manman quickly swam over to open the door, and there was Sirion outside the door.
"Woooo~ Sirien, I lost the black pearl, what should I do! The baby is going to become a bisexual fish, woooooo~ I don't want the baby to become a bisexual fish, what should I do..."
Manman hugged Sirien and howled dryly in his ear.
Sirien endured the noise, stroked his head without changing his expression, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it, the baby won't turn into a bisexual fish."
"Really?" Manman stared into Sirien's eyes, and Sirien nodded calmly.
"Great!"
"Don't be too happy, look behind me first..."
"what?"
Manman turned her head to look outside the door, completely stunned.Su Qing stood on tiptoe curiously, passed Manman, and saw three people outside the door, two of them had golden wavy long hair, one had dark blue wavy long hair, they looked a little like Manman sub-similar...
