The one person and one fish who are still next to each other have completely different reactions at this moment.
Ye Zheng unconsciously straightened his body and slightly left Andrew a little distance, although this action was a bit futile - Andrew was still resting on her lap. Regardless of the relationship between those two fish and Andrew, they can come to Andrew with food at this time, which means that their relationship in the group must be very close.
She doesn't know how long the two mermaids have been here, nor how much she and Andrew's playfulness was seen by the two mermaids just now. Now Ye Zheng has a sense of embarrassment that someone broke his secret. The two adults have been staring blankly in the direction of the two of them, and their cold pupils do not know which one they are staring at.
Andrew, like most mermen, is a species with a lack of facial nerves. It couldn't make a laugh or frown like Ye Zheng did, but after so many days of getting along, Ye Zheng could almost accurately perceive Andrew's emotions.
But Ye Zheng found that she couldn't feel the anger or panic of the two adult fish in the distance.
Ye Zheng looked a little bewildered and looked away from the two adult mermaids. She lowered her head in embarrassment, wishing she could find a crack on the beach to dig into. No matter what the two mermaids think, as a girl who is surrounded and liked by people, no, kissing the fish they like always makes Ye Zheng feel a little shy.
Ye Zheng was embarrassed and ashamed on this side, but Andrew on the other side was extraordinarily magnanimous, and he was not nervous at all from being caught by the same race.
Andrew was lying on Ye Zheng's lap, slightly tilted his big tail, and swayed towards the mermaid in the distance. The shark yarn that has grown again on the tip of the tail swayed slightly in the air, playful and agile, as if to greet them. Andrew first tweeted loudly, then opened his mouth to communicate silently into the distance.
The female mermaid in the distance also screamed at Andrew. For some reason, Ye Zheng always felt that the scream was sharper and thinner than Andrew's.
After grinning at Andrew for a while, the mermaid jumped into the water, and with a shove of its heavy tail, a large piece of fish floating in front of them was knocked out of the sea. The huge piece of fish drew a parabola in the air and landed straight in front of Ye Zheng and Andrew.
If it weren't for the splash of water that the fish picked up and splashed on Ye Zheng's face when it fell from a height, she would really like to praise the mermaid's accuracy and strength.
Ye Zheng's hand rubbed randomly on her face, and by the time she opened her eyes, the two mermaids had disappeared without a trace. The sea in the distance was calm, and if it wasn't for the large piece of white fish that Andrew dragged in front of him, the two adult fish who came to deliver food would be as if they had never appeared.
Andrew brought the fish over, carefully cut the outside, and then dug out the center and tenderest fish and handed it to Ye Zheng, motioning her to eat it.
When Ye Zheng just lived on the deserted island, Ye Zheng, who had no fire, relied on all kinds of fresh food provided by Andrew. In that case, Ye Zheng wouldn't pick and choose. Basically, she would eat whatever Andrew gave her.
When there is fire, with two choices of barbecue and soup, Ye Zheng doesn't like eating raw fish very much. But apart from this very white fish meat, it tastes completely without fishy smell, and the fish meat is tender and juicy, smooth and elastic in one bite. After Andrew found out that Ye Zheng prefers this kind of fish, the fish he dragged back for her to eat is this kind of fish.
Ye Zheng didn't know how Andrew got in touch with the two adults. She didn't expect that Andrew would remember to ask the adults to bring her favorite fish in this situation.
Ye Zheng was stunned as he held the two pieces of tender fish the size of a palm.
"clank?"
Andrew leaned over and seemed to wonder why Ye Zheng didn't eat fish. It thought for a while, and then tore the fish meat in Ye Zheng's hand into a few pieces along the texture before handing it to Ye Zheng again. It probably thought that Ye Zheng had forgotten how to handle the fish meat.
Ye Zheng felt that the tip of her nose was a little sour again. She pretended to be starving, and hurriedly lowered her head and chewed the fish, trying to hide her expression.
After discovering his own mind, Ye Zheng looked at Andrew again, and always felt that it was many, many times better than before, and much more reliable than many of her peers she had met.
Ye Zheng ate the fish in his hand with great thought, and after Andrew finished eating, he slowly took Andrew back to the cave.
Ye Zheng learned how to live on the island, and cut down the tall weeds and spread them in the cave, which was the bed she was going to sleep on next.
Andrew was immersed in the water, and it looked at Ye Zheng, who was busy, who was trying his best to spread the grass a little thicker to keep out the moisture on the ground.
The mermaid called out softly, "Zhengzheng?"
"Huh?" Ye Zheng turned back and looked at the mermaid whose upper body was lying on the stone ground.
"Two days," Andrew said seriously, "Andrew, clank, go home."
Ye Zheng understood, Andrew told her to stay here for two days in peace, and after two days he would take Ye Zheng back to the island. Ye Zheng grinned and nodded his head heavily, "En."
They really lived in this remote and desolate place for two days. In fact, on the first day, Andrew's swimming speed was much faster and his posture was a lot more flexible, but he still insisted on resting in this harbor. one day.
Ye Zheng guessed that she was probably a drag on Andrew. If he hadn't brought another person, Andrew would need to heal his wounds better for a while. In fact, it was not necessary for him to take this place with her where it was difficult to get food. Judging from how Andrew has gotten along with his mates several times, the mermaid is a very social species. Andrew can greet his mates and stay with his group, which is safe and will not lack food.
In the past, when Andrew took care of Ye Zheng, she always looked at the mermaid with gratitude, and hoped to be able to repay one or two. But now, thinking of the mermaid's thoughtfulness, Ye Zheng always unconsciously thinks, does Andrew take care of her so much and get close to her, does it mean that he actually likes each other just like her
Ye Zheng had no choice, and was embarrassed to ask Andrew, she just thought silently, praying that her guess was right. Ye Zheng is closer to Andrew than ever before, and she hopes to get the answer she hopes through Andrew's equally close response.
In the early morning of the third day, when Ye Zheng woke up, Andrew carried Ye Zheng back to the island where they originally lived.
The island was a mess, the stone nest was gone, the fire pit was gone, the walrus skins and clothes she had stored were gone, and even the skeletons that built the bone house were scattered all over the place.
Ye Zheng was silent for a long time. She carefully picked up a convex crystal with a round shape, and said to Andrew in a self-deprecating manner: "Fortunately, now I can have a portable igniter."
Andrew didn't understand what Ye Zheng meant. He stared at the chaos on the island seriously, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, it was called Ye Zheng: "Clang, let's go."
"Go?" Ye Zheng looked at Andrew in surprise, "Where to?"
The activist Andrew didn't explain, he picked up Ye Zheng and swam outside with her. Ye Zheng was used to Andrew's actions without explanation, and she was still led by Andrew in the sea for a long time before she reached her destination.
Andrew can always find a variety of suitable places to live. Looking at the surrounding environment where he lives, Ye Zheng thought, Mermaid is indeed a sea creature. Ye Zheng didn't know how big the ocean was in the world she was in, but she thought, with the curiosity of mermaids, they must be eager to swim and explore all the seas.
Where they settled, there was a cave not far from the coastline. From where Ye Zheng was standing, she felt that the cave looked very large, and she didn't know how it was formed. Andrew chose this place, probably because he was frightened by the sudden hurricane. He might think that the cave is safe enough for Ye Zheng.
But since Andrew brought her here, Ye Zheng decided to live here in peace.
With optimism, she started repairing the cave, piling up hay, collecting conch, and making clothes out of the seal skins that Andrew had brought back again, as she had always done.
Ye Zheng feels that everything will be fine. If there is no home, then build another one. She can always make this place as comfortable as before.
But Ye Zheng, who was rebuilding her home, felt that the mermaid was not as positive and optimistic as she thought.
Ye Zheng, who had already rebuilt his "home" and adapted to the same place, found that Andrew has been unusually restless in recent days. Even when Ye Zheng was in his arms and braided, his tail was flapping anxiously.
Ye Zheng thought a little worriedly, some humans would choose a bed, Andrew is not a land creature at all, would he choose an island if he changed to a new island
Ye Zheng sometimes asks Andrew tentatively, "What's wrong with you?" "Are you ill?" "What do you want?"
Without a clear answer, Andrew just stared at Ye Zheng with his wet eyes.
One night, when Ye Zheng was sleeping, he was suddenly awakened by the singing of the mermaid.
Is Andrew calling its mate? Ye Zheng rubbed his eyes and thought, and walked outside in a daze, not knowing what Andrew was doing so late.
Ye Zheng stepped on the cold sand with bare feet, causing a slight frictional pain. Ye Zheng, who was a little sober, thought, this time the mermaid's singing was extraordinarily seductive, gentle, and extraordinarily...
"Andrew?"
Ye Zheng stood by the sea, opened her mouth in surprise, and all her drowsiness disappeared at that moment.
Under the starlight, Andrew's gleaming big tail kept swiping across the water, and his movements did not affect the singing that attracted Ye Zheng here.
Andrew's huge fins stood up high, and it tumbled across the water, stirring up a sea of shredded starlight.
It gradually swam in, stopped not far from the coast and stared at Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng held his breath, as if seeing a mermaid for the first time, he couldn't take his eyes off the extremely beautiful sea creature in front of him, it was even more beautiful than usual.
At this moment, Ye Zheng finally confirmed that it was Andrew who just sang.
