Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family

761 So-called Alliance

“Xiaoou, what did he say?”

Hai Ming was vigilant. He felt danger. Zhou Zhi gave him a dangerous feeling, but he did not understand his words. He desperately wanted to know what Zhou Zhi had said.

An Xiaoou knew that things were not as simple as she thought. She told Hai Ming about what Zhou Zhi said.

Hai Ming frowned and said, “Xiaoou, ask them if they’re not afraid of death. Their lives are in our hands now.”

An Xiaoou translated truthfully.

Zhou Zhi smiled lightly and said, “Miss An, tell him that we’re all afraid of death, but it won’t end if we die. The fish people aren’t the masters, and neither are the humans. If our races want to get along peacefully, we have to return the favor. Sooner or later, the two worlds will completely fuse. We can communicate peacefully after signing the alliance. Our Great Zhou Dynasty is willing to interact peacefully with the fish people. In the future, if the fish people are invaded by other dynasties, the Great Zhou Dynasty won’t sit back and do nothing. This is the benefit of the alliance.”

“The human race has abundant knowledge and smart inventions which will help the fish people to learn and improve. Then, can the fish people provide energy liquid or energy blocks for the human race?”

Zhou Zhi looked at An Xiaoou and narrowed his eyes.

An Xiaoou opened her mouth slightly. She subconsciously touched her neck and shrank her neck when she saw Zhou Zhi smile.

Hai Ming didn’t know what Zhou Zhi said. He only knew that An Xiaoou was a little afraid.

He stood forward fearlessly and blocked Zhou Zhi’s gaze.

His eyes darkened and revealed a ferocious glint. Sharp claws appeared between his fingers, and his teeth became sharp.

An Xiaoou tugged at Hai Ming’s clothes. “Hai Ming, don’t be anxious.”

An Xiaoou realized that she was weak. The power of wisdom was endless. She didn’t know when Zhou Zhi noticed the energy stone she was wearing. Perhaps it was because she touched it occasionally or did something else. She didn’t realize it herself, but Zhou Zhi noticed it.

The reason why humans could establish themselves in the world and open up a path to survival among all kinds of ferocious beasts and poisonous creatures was because they were intelligent.

“Hai Ming, let’s go back first. We still have to discuss this matter in detail.”

An Xiaoou spoke to Hai Ming.

Hai Ming looked at Zhou Zhi warily. Zhou Zhi smiled politely at him.

An Xiaoou adjusted her mood and said to Zhou Zhi, “Wisdom King, this matter is very important. We still have to discuss it in detail before we can give you an answer. I’ll have to trouble you for the time being.”

Zhou Zhi smiled and shook his head. “It’s fine.”

An Xiaoou asked the servant to bring food.

They could finally free their hands. Everyone ate in silence.

The fish people were very vigilant and looked like they were ready for combat. They would emit low-frequency sound waves from their mouths. They did not have much offensive power, but it made Su Xiaolu and the others very uncomfortable.

Seeing that they did not do anything, they lowered their voices.

Su Xiaolu smiled at An Xiaoou and said, “Xiaoou, thank you.”

An Xiaoou smiled and shook her head. She hadn’t done well enough.

An Xiaoou and Hai Ming left. They still had to report to the king.

After blocking her hearing, Su Xiaolu felt much more comfortable. She ignored the hostile expressions of the fish people and sat down quietly after eating and drinking her fill.

When the two fish people saw this, they were much more relieved. They put away their sharp claws and retreated.

An Xiaoou and Hai Ming reported the news of their communication to the king.

There were a few elders gathered in the royal palace. They did not expect that among the people they captured, there was actually a human royalty.

Everyone started arguing again.

Some said that they should kill them to prevent future trouble, while others said that they should not. Exchanging knowledge could change the development of the fish people. Perhaps they could find the reason why the fish people’s transformation failed.

Some said that they were not afraid. At most, they would go into the deep sea. Humans could not go so deep into the sea. Even if the fish people were weaker than the humans, they could not do anything.

An Xiaoou felt a headache coming on. When the people in the palace quarreled, it was no different from a market.

The fish people only had one partner. They would at most give birth to two children in their lives. It would take ten years for a small fish to transform into a human. If the transformation failed, it would only be a fish for the rest of its life. After the transformation failed, its mind would slowly degenerate until it was no different from an ordinary fish. It might not return after leaving the clan to hunt one day.

As for the fish people, they would only conceive again after the first child’s transformation failed. The fish people reproduced very little, and it was too hard to raise two children.

Humans were different. Having more children was a tradition in every family. As long as they had food to eat, they could continue to give birth until they could not give birth anymore.

The difference between humans and fish people was too great, so the fish people had to treat them carefully.

“Xiaoou, the king is asking you a question.”

Hai Ming called An Xiaoou gently.

An Xiaoou came back to her senses and looked at the old king respectfully. “What did the king ask me?”

An Xiaoou realized that the prince was also here.

Everyone looked at her.

The king looked at An Xiaoou and said slowly, “Xiaoou, what is the alliance agreement of your human race like? Can the descendants of our fish people be guaranteed safety when they go on land to learn?”

Every descendant of theirs was very precious. In the sea, they were unrestrained and could deal with the methods of the humans. However, when they reached the shore, their bodies were also restrained. They were afraid that the humans would betray them at that time.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, An Xiaoou thought that she actually didn’t know much. She felt very guilty and recalled carefully what she had heard before. She said, “My king, since ancient times, alliances meant that both sides will exchange important hostages with each other. These hostages are usually the children of the empress. They are people who can inherit the throne in the future to form a good relationship and balance each other.”

If anyone broke the agreement, they would definitely let their children’s blood fuel the other party’s anger.

However, humans could give birth to many children, but the fish people could not.

From this point of view, the fish people had no benefits. However, there was one thing. The fish people could live for 200 years, their lifespan was several times that of humans.

“Father, I’m willing to travel to the human race to learn knowledge and seek a solution for my clan.”

The little prince stood up, his small face filled with determination. He was the youngest child of the king, Yu Yan. He had just successfully transformed this year and almost failed. This caused his body to be a little weak. It would take at least forty years to recover.

“No, you’re not in good health. The humans are ferocious. I don’t agree.”

The eldest prince, Yu Heng, firmly objected. He had been to the foreign land and had seen many people’s ferocious appearances. Some big fish that were caught would quickly disintegrate, and the still-moving fish meat would become human food. The humans looked weak, but they were all bloodthirsty. Even the small children ate them happily.

Fish did not like to eat humans, but humans liked to eat fish.

Yu Yan looked at An Xiaoou and asked with a smile, “Sister Xiaoou, there’s an exchange of knowledge between alliances, right? As long as we are in an alliance, the other party has to protect the safety of their esteemed guests, right?”

Everyone looked at An Xiaoou, waiting for her to answer.
