Deserted Island Survival Notes

Chapter 17

Ye Zheng lay down, holding the mermaid's body tightly, bumping on the waves with the mermaid's movements. The mermaid broke through the water and moved forward. The water spray was pressed on both sides of the mermaid's body, and the wind whistled on her face. Ye Zheng could only squint and watch the surrounding seawater retreat rapidly.

The mermaid's familiarity with the ocean is not comparable to that of Ye Zheng. Even though the sea is very rough, the mermaid's direction never changes.

Ye Zheng could feel the small fins trembling slightly under the palms of her hands. The mermaid held her folded hands with a cold paw. The small bag of potatoes was still pressing on her abdomen, which was still a little hard. abdomen.

A big wave hit, and the mermaid jumped up with the surge of the wave and flew out of the water.

Ye Zheng's exclamation was trapped in her throat. She only felt that her heartbeat suddenly accelerated at the moment she took off, and then when the mermaid fell downwards, her heart that was already beating fast started to beat again. He lifted it suddenly, as if he had lost weight.

Just when Ye Zheng felt that he was about to be thrown out, the mermaid's other claw reached behind him, pressing Ye Zheng back onto his back, and then smashed him into the water.

Fortunately, Ye Zheng closed his eyes in time to prevent seawater from splashing into his eyes. However, the mermaid performed this set of actions very quickly, and Ye Zheng didn't close her eyes quickly. She was still choked by the salty sea water. When the mermaid surfaced again, she started coughing non-stop.

The mermaid's paws patted the back of Ye Zheng's hand comfortingly, but she did not stop and still swam quickly to the island where they lived. The mermaid was not comparable to Ye Zheng in the water. For her, the straight-line distance was more than 400 meters, and she had to go around several islands by sea. The mermaid only took less than a minute.

Before Ye Zheng could recover, the mermaid had already carried her back to the original island. Then he sent Ye Zheng ashore.

"Thank you, thank you..." Ye Zheng said while waving his hands, then stood up while holding his knees and coughing. The potatoes in her arms fell out, and the mermaid followed Ye Zheng's example and picked them up with seaweed.

Ye Zheng ignored the potatoes held by the mermaid. She rushed towards the dried fish, then hugged them and crawled back into the small stone nest. Ye Zheng shook the dried fish, trying to shake off the water.

Her dried fish had been covered with salt and dried in the sun for seven or eight days. The water was almost completely dried. Ye Zheng wiped the water on the fish distressedly. It was okay, okay, the dried fish had not been watered by rain in such a short time. bad.

Putting the dried fish on the hay pole, Ye Zheng took off his "clothes" and wiped the water on himself with a cloth strip. Although Ye Zheng has always been in good health and has become accustomed to getting wet during swimming these days, she still feels that she should be careful not to get wet if she can. After all, she didn't have any medicines on her, so if she got sick, she would have to deal with it.

Ye Zheng untied the broad leaves wrapped around her body. Her clothes were made of broad leaves that looked similar and tied around her body. After Ye Zheng's clothes were damaged by the mermaid, she couldn't bear to throw them away. From the strips came two simple pairs of underwear that had to be tied at the wide edges, and the remaining scraps became her wash cloth and bath cloth.

Ye Zheng was wiping the water off his body when the seaweed that served as a wind barrier was lifted open by a claw. Apparently the mermaid was trying to get in.

"Wait!" Ye Zheng screamed and pressed down the seaweed, blocking the mermaid out. She is now naked and naked, and the mermaid can see her body when he comes in.

Although due to Ye Zheng's own craftsmanship, the clothes she has made so far are very crude. They can only cover important parts and block the wind on her chest and back. She has been wearing such clothes in front of the mermaid for a long time. . Wearing this kind of clothes, Ye Zheng could comfort himself that he was wearing a swimsuit on the beach, but Ye Zheng still couldn't accept being naked in front of the mermaid.

Even though the mermaid is not human, it looks so much like it. As one person and one fish spend more and more time together, Ye Zheng discovers that the mermaid can think and imitate, and is completely like a highly intelligent creature.

Of course, the mermaid has no clothes. To it, it might be meaningless whether Ye Zheng's body is wearing clothes or not. But Ye Zheng can't think like this. The more he treats the mermaid as a partner, the higher Ye Zheng's sense of shame will be when facing it.

Ye Zheng hurriedly wiped the water off his body, put on another set of clean and dry clothes, and then opened the curtain to let the mermaid in.

The mermaid wiped the entrance of the hole and moved in, then threw the potatoes next to Ye Zheng. The movement was a bit heavy and she was obviously unhappy. His big tail curled up, and then he lay down with his back to Ye Zheng, minding his own business and lying there holding his tail.

"Okay," Ye Zheng stepped over the mermaid, then looked at the mermaid face to face, and said helplessly, "Wasn't it good before? Are you so angry now?" The mermaid opened his mouth angrily,

revealing Its fangs made a very angry look towards Ye Zheng.

Now Ye Zheng is not so easily frightened by the appearance of the mermaid. When she saw the mermaid showing its sharp teeth, she was not afraid. Then she touched the mermaid's cold lips with her hand, and then lightly touched the mermaid's teeth with her fingertips. tip.

The mermaid was stunned.

Ye Zheng estimated that this was the first time that the mermaid, as the overlord of the ocean, encountered another creature and actively moved towards its mouth. Now it could not make any demonstrative movements. The mermaid's ferocious look suddenly became funny. After hesitating for a while, it closed its mouth. The mermaid gently bit Ye Zheng's finger with the small teeth on the side, and then lay down again.

Ye Zheng stretched out his hand and began to slowly rub the muscles on the mermaid's body, and gently brushed its body with a hay stick. This is basically the interaction that Ye Zheng has to have with the mermaid every day. Ever since the mermaid was brushed with hay, she liked this kind of service.

While enjoying Ye Zheng's service, it put the potatoes in its hands and looked at them.

The mermaid looked at Ye Zheng and opened the potato in front of her, revealing the white flesh inside. The mermaid looked at it curiously, then dug out a large piece with its sharp claws and tasted it.

"Don't spit!" Ye Zheng quickly covered the mermaid's mouth with quick eyes and hands, "Don't spit at home, don't waste it!" When

Ye Zheng saw the mermaid chewing two mouthfuls and then stopped, he immediately guessed that the mermaid has a strong taste for potatoes. Not satisfied. In order to expand his recipe, Ye Zheng tried some plants. She is quite cautious. She will only find food that other creatures can eat when she sees it. And every time the mermaid sees it, they will definitely make a fuss about asking her to feed it.

It is normal to say that, as a marine creature, mermaids are not interested in most food on land, and the end of the food is often spit out by the mermaids without hesitation.

Normally, Ye Zheng would just ignore it. Those leaves, roots, fruits and birds, even if it didn't like Ye Zheng, he wouldn't force it. But this time, they were still staying in the stone nest, and she had to keep it clean. And what it tasted were potatoes that Ye Zheng was determined to make his staple food. One of the potatoes fell off on the way back. How could Ye Zheng let it waste food like before?

Ye Zheng put his palm on the mermaid's cold mouth, resolutely preventing it from opening. The mermaid didn't dare to pull Ye Zheng hard, and could only look at Ye Zheng with wet eyes. Finally, Ye Zheng saw it make a clear swallowing motion: the piece of potato was swallowed by it.

It threw the remaining potatoes aside dejectedly and refused to look at Ye Zheng again.

Ye Zheng slowly ate the rest of the potatoes, laughing secretly in his heart. The fins on this guy's back were still taut and his ears were straight. How could he really ignore her? This is obviously waiting for Ye Zheng to come. However, the tip of its tail was tapping the ground lightly, and Ye Zheng knew that it was already a little anxious.

She swallowed the last bite of potatoes, slowly moved over, placed the mermaid's head on her, and began to slowly comb its wet hair-like things with her fingers.

Ye Zheng moved his fingers flexibly on its head. Ye Zheng picked out a few strands and tied them into small braids, and then fixed them on other soft long hairs. The mermaid's "hair" was too slippery, and Ye Zheng couldn't hold it, but fortunately, she finally made it into a braid-like thing, and then Ye Zheng tied it with a soft straw rope.

This grass rope is actually not strong. If the mermaid wants to go into the water, it will fall off easily. However, Ye Zheng still grooms it seriously every time.

After Ye Zheng was tied up, the mermaid touched her head with her paws, turned her head to see if the braid was loose, and finally patted Ye Zheng's instep with the tip of her tail with satisfaction.

This is what reconciliation means.
