Full text introduction to "Scales of the Amazing Salamander"
She is the sharpest blade in Dongchang. Qian Zhi said that she was born to be an assassin and would not lose if she had no weakness. She believed it for many years, until that rainy night, the short blade was pressed against the throat of Wang Yu, the admiral of Xichang.
He didn't hide, instead he held her wrist and said with a smile, "I've been looking for you for ten years."
At that moment, her "non-existent" heart suddenly jumped.
He was a man of great power, so cold-blooded that he could scare the entire court of civil and military officials, yet he would wake up with heartache on a full-moon night and shout "Ah Li" to the empty dormitory.
She said: "Give me your heart."
He asked: "If I pay you back, I will die. Are you willing to do so?"
She couldn't bear it.
The whole capital knew that the East Factory and the West Factory were incompatible, and no one knew that they had secret meetings every night. During the day, he is her "dead eunuch" who must be killed, and at night, he is her only warmth. Qian Zhi threatened her with him, and she sneered: "If you dare to touch him, I will bury the whole city with you." She turned around and hugged him, crying out a handful of broken pearls.
He said: "Don't cry. I have saved enough to buy your betrothal gift."
The truth later came to light: she was the last of the Poseidon bloodline, and her mermaid heart was transplanted into him in order to extend his life. One wants to take back her heart and return it to the world, and the other wants to cover her chest to protect her.
On the last night, he handed the knife to her hand: "Cut me open and get your heart back." He paused and smiled again, "... The knife leaves someone behind, just leave a breath to get married."
She didn't use the knife, turned around and jumped into the deep sea, thousands of miles of waves boiling for her.
After that night, people all over the world sang about the return of the Neptune Emperor. No one knew that the powerful Admiral of Xichang quietly resigned and went to sea. Every day he knelt on the rocks holding a box of shark tears and shouted to the wind and waves:
"A Li, my heart is beating so hard."
"You touch it and see, it's your heart calling you to go home."
The heart-losing shark assassin × the heart-grabbing naval admiral chased his wife to the crematorium, and she asked him to return her heart with her own hands.
