That night, when the mermaid came back, he saw the mackerel yarn tied around Ye Zheng's neck.
Obviously, Ye Zheng's practice of always carrying the shark yarn on his body makes the fish extremely satisfied. He gently touched the shark yarn on Ye Zheng's neck, and his gestures were soft and unreasonable, which made people feel a little affectionate. It means, as if this is not a shark yarn, but its lover.
Although the mermaid's claws didn't touch Ye Zheng, its movements, its big eyes looking at Ye Zheng's neck wetly, made Ye Zheng feel that the hairs on his body were about to stand up.
Ye Zheng quickly pushed the mermaid's face away, raised his hand, and used dried fish to divert its attention: "Would you like to eat it?"
This move was very effective, the mermaid's claws immediately left the circle of shark yarn around Ye Zheng's neck, and looked intently at the dried fish that Ye Zheng handed to it.
Ye Zheng still had doubts about the dried sea salt, so he only put a little bit of it during pickling, so little to no. She hadn't eaten it herself yet, so she could only stare at the mermaid nervously.
The mermaid squeezed the piece of fish in a novelty and shook it. It showed great interest in Ye Zheng's drying behavior when he was drying it before. When Ye Zheng experimented with a fish, it generously sent a few more fish of the same species to Ye Zheng.
But even if he is curious, the mermaid who has no shortage of food still adheres to the principle of respecting each other's food. It has never touched Ye Zheng's dried fish before. Now it is very interesting to pinch the dried fish, break it, and lick it. look.
Ye Zheng reassured her heart that she had tasted so many things for the mermaid. This was the first food that the mermaid licked without showing dislike, except for seasoned fruits.
The mermaid slowly tore off a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly.
"How?" Ye Zheng asked expectantly with his head lowered.
This time, the mermaid gave Ye Zheng a lot of face. It didn't spit it out. It just chewed two more bites and then swallowed it. It didn't seem like he hated this dried fish.
But it's just not annoying, because next, the mermaid handed the remaining dried fish to Ye Zheng's mouth.
Ye Zheng's body jerked back, avoiding the dried fish that was approaching.
"Wait a minute! This is what you licked!"
Seeing Ye Zheng's actions, the mermaid retracted her claws and tilted her head, as if she was a little confused why Ye Zheng didn't eat the food she prepared.
It stared at the dried fish and hesitated for a while, then handed it to Ye Zheng's mouth. Ye Zheng held the mermaid's wrist bone and pushed the dried fish back to the mermaid's mouth: "You eat, you eat."
Now the mermaid understood, and finally the piece of dried fish went into the mermaid's stomach. But the mermaid didn't give up, probably trying to figure out whether Ye Zheng wanted to eat dried fish, it picked up a second piece of dried fish, tore off a small piece, and fed it to Ye Zheng persistently.
Ye Zheng was a little embarrassed this time, but she still opened her mouth to take it.
Ye Zheng thought while biting a small piece of dried fish, the taste is really good, the taste is just right, the fish is still chewy, but... a little hard.
That's right, regardless of how easy it is for the mermaid to tear up the dried fish, with Ye Zheng's mouth, it's still a little hard to get up. When Ye Zheng was eating the second piece fed by the merman, her cheeks hurt. In the end, she simply covered her right cheek, rubbing her right cheek muscles while eating, and then swallowed the second piece.
The mermaid noticed Ye Zheng, who had a bitter face, and instead of feeding her the third piece he tore off, he put it into his mouth.
Um? Ye Zheng was puzzled, didn't he like to eat this? Could it be that watching Ye Zheng eat his own appetite again? Ye Zheng watched in surprise as the mermaid chewed a few mouthfuls expressionlessly, then held her chin, and his mouth slowly came closer...
"No!!!!"
Ye Zheng suddenly woke up, shouted in horror, and reached out his hand to block the mermaid's mouth. Under her palm is the merman's cold mouth. Fortunately, the mermaid's head was not lowered very fast, and she did not resist Ye Zheng's movements, so her wrist against the mermaid's jaw bone was not injured. Ye Zheng knew that some animals had the habit of feeding their cubs after chewing them in their mouths. The mermaid might just want to feed her just because she was biting too hard.
But as far as Ye Zheng herself is concerned, it's okay for animals to do this, but this kind of thing must not happen to her!
"No! No! No!!" Ye Zheng said this word in a serious tone repeatedly to express his firmness.
Then she pushed the mermaid back with force, making the mermaid understand that she didn't want it to be fed like this. Fortunately, the mermaid always obeyed her actions, otherwise it would be impossible to push it with Ye Zheng's strength. It opened its eyes wide, and watched Ye Zheng push himself back with some puzzlement. With a movement of his throat, he swallowed the dried fish that should have been chewed in his mouth.
It also held half a piece of dried fish in its hand, one person and one fish, one sitting and one lying down and looking at each other.
The mermaid opened its mouth and made a sigh, but there was no sigh—it actually learned to sigh!
Ye Zheng was wondering if he was sighing too much. The mermaid who had learned to sigh looked at her blankly, but the movements of his subordinates kept moving. The remaining large half of the dried fish was torn by the merman's storm, turned into fine pieces, and piled up in the merman's palm.
The mermaid raised her arm and put her palm next to Ye Zheng's mouth, thinking that Ye Zheng must finish eating the dried quick fish. Ye Zheng was helpless, she had to squeeze a small amount with her fingers and carefully put it into her mouth.
The dried fish that was torn to shreds was still a bit hard, but this time Ye Zheng felt much better when he chewed and swallowed. The dried fish tasted more like fish floss when eaten, and Ye Zheng's mouth and stomach were more acceptable. .
During the period, the mermaid's arm was held steadily, and there was no spillage at all. It patiently waited for Ye Zheng to finish eating the fish pieces in the heart of its claws.
After Ye Zheng finished eating the minced fish, he started nibbling on the "potatoes" that had been exposed to the sun for a round, and were somewhat dry but more fragrant. The mermaid, who has already tasted potatoes, has no interest in potatoes this time. It picked up a clean conch and lay down, and then slowly began to process the remaining few dried fish.
The mermaid did the same and tore the remaining few dried fish into pieces, which was convenient for Ye Zheng to eat next, and then he stopped.
Ye Zheng smiled while nibbling on the dried potatoes, this big fish is really getting more and more caring.
After Ye Zheng finished dinner, he took the mermaid for a few steps on the beach. Quan was a pastime after dinner, and then he strolled under the big tree with the height engraved on it.
Ye Zheng remembered his previous doubts, waved at the mermaid, pressed it against the tree trunk, and made another stroke with an arrow.
This time, Ye Zheng could see the growth of the mermaid completely. Its height, no, it was actually three or four centimeters longer than when it first started!
Ye Zheng was a little stunned, this growth rate is too fast! Ye Zheng turned his fingers and did the math. If this goes on, the mermaid should soon be able to catch up with the size of an adult fish, right? I don't know if its vocal cords were also developed at that time.
Ye Zheng stared at the scale, and the mermaid looked at the scale on the tree with the same seriousness. After Ye Zheng had done the math, he simply squatted down, reached out and hugged the mermaid with the thickest tail, thinking of writing down the mermaid's current tail circumference.
Her idea originally just thought that after the mermaid grows taller, the body will also grow horizontally. For Ye Zheng, this is a very natural consideration. After measuring the height, it is natural to measure the width.
But Ye Zheng ignored the idea of the mermaid, or, for the current Ye Zheng, it was hard for her to think that the mermaid would be too resistant to any of her actions. After all, except at the beginning, it has always been very friendly and docile towards Ye Zheng.
When Ye Zheng squatted down, his head just rubbed against the mermaid's stomach, and the mermaid was a little stiff at that time. When Ye Zheng reached out and hugged the thickest part of the mermaid's tail, the mermaid finally jumped up and bumped Ye Zheng to the side.
When the mermaid was on the shore, at most, it relied on the hard bones under its tail to stand up. It quickly lost its balance after such a jump. After hitting Ye Zheng, the whole fish rolled down the small slope.
Ye Zheng was bumped to the side by the mermaid, and just hit her chin. She rubbed her chin and her buttocks as she stood up with difficulty and looked at the mermaid rolling down the sand slope.
There is just a big rock under this sandy slope, and under the rock is a small groove like a groove. When the mermaid rolled down, it just got stuck in the groove and struggled to get out. At this moment, the mermaid was stuck in the small ditch and was flapping its big tail, and the whole tail snapped. Seeing Ye Zheng looking over, it waved its arms and claws and looked at Ye Zheng pitifully.
