The mermaids who have lived in human society for too long no longer use this "barbaric and primitive" way of eating. They are used to seeing the "imperial treasures" who hold knives and forks elegantly. Qi Rong is really attracted to them. The blue-tailed mermaid was startled by her sudden behavior.
The colorless crystal-like fingernails were clean and clear yet not concealing their sharpness. Qi Rong, who had an instinct to avoid danger, paused, and finally lowered his head and bit the piece of fish meat into his mouth with the mermaid's eyes offering a treasure.
No matter what, he couldn't let the other party really catch a dolphin.
The meat was delicate and sweet in the mouth, but did not taste the fishy smell as expected. Qi Rong relaxed his brows, and then reached out to touch the other person's head again: "It's delicious, thank you." After
receiving the positive emotion in the man's eyes, the mermaid became a puppy again He flicked his tail happily, and seeing the other person searching for the small white fish among the fish on the ground again, Qi Rong grabbed the mermaid's wrist with the same force as last time, and then gently shook his head at the other person.
Humans and mermaids have different body structures. Even if the fish meat tastes good, Qi Rong still needs to eat some cooked food. What's more, he lost too much blood and slept at the beach all night. What he needs most at this moment is sufficient calories.
"I have to pick up some branches and bring them back," Qi Rong pointed to the lush island woods behind him. Qi Rong tried his best to express his meaning in simple language, "I need to make a fire, I'm too cold." I'm afraid
the mermaid won't understand, man. She even folded her arms and shivered figuratively, but there was never fire in the sea, so no matter how the man explained it, the mermaid could only understand what the other party meant: "It's very cold and he needs to leave."
Grabbing the man's sleeve, the silver-haired mermaid slapped the water with his tail anxiously. As a race that has been searching for comfortable water temperatures since birth, he could only think of using water to keep the other person warm.
But Qi Rong doesn't like water.
He lowered his head droopingly, and the turbulent sea surface behind the mermaid also calmed down. The man who was already prepared to be doused in sea water again secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then patted the other party's left hand comfortingly, which almost tore his sleeve.
"I'll be back soon," pointing to the woods and then to his feet, Qi Rong lowered his voice to a level he had never imagined before, "Soon, wait for me here, okay?" It was probably a
man. The look in her eyes was so sincere that the blue-tailed mermaid hesitated for a moment, but finally obediently let go of her fingers.
Seems like a very lonely cub.
Seemingly turning around and walking away without any hesitation, the man unknowingly quickened his pace. Originally, he thought about forcibly summoning the mecha to return after getting out of the mermaid's sight, but when he thought of the other person's simplicity and trust in him, With such a look in his eyes, Qi Rong couldn't help but leave like a liar.
If he didn't go back, the little mermaid would wait stupidly on the shore for who knows how long.
What's more, his mental strength is already exhausted. If he can't untie those knots, even if he goes back, what awaits him is nothing more than decline after exhaustion or death after going berserk.
Coupled with the encirclement of Mias's "true love", the capital star that he once regarded as his destination may not be much safer than the sea area in front of him.
Rather than returning in such a state of embarrassment and exhaustion, it is better to find a way to heal his mental power here. Compared to those artificial mermaids who are already familiar with human rules and unspoken rules, Qi Rong is obviously more willing to deal with this thought. Just getting along with wild mermaids.
With a plan in mind, Qi Rong moved a little faster, skillfully picking out dry and flammable branches. Qi Rong casually pulled a section of vines, gathered the branches and tied them up like a package, and carried them on his back. .
Except for the birds on the trees and the bugs on the ground, the man did not disturb any dangerous creatures in the forest. His steps were light, and Qi Rong even had the leisure to pick two bunches of fruits that were confirmed to be non-toxic.
If they haven't learned how to turn their tails into legs, then the underage cubs must not have eaten these foods that grow on the ground.
He had already learned to count the time silently in his heart, so even without any timing tools, Qi Rong could successfully control himself to return in the direction he came from within forty minutes.
The beach where he woke up could be seen in the distance. Qi Rong, who heard the subtle sound of water, stopped involuntarily.
As if there was an artificial heavy rain, the blue-tailed mermaid sat quietly on the reef and looked at the sun in the distance, letting the fountain-like sea water pour on her body.
Over and over again, the tiny water droplets refract colorful lights in the sun, looking like flowing rainbows.
But the mermaid didn't feel happy playing with the sea water. For some reason, looking at the other person's side face that looked hazy due to the distance, Qi Rong actually felt lonely from this human child-like cub.
There are no more of his kind in this sea area.
Realizing this very clearly, Qi Rong, who had never paid any attention to this race before applying for the allocation of mermaids, became disgusted with the institute's relentless hunting for the first time.
"Hey!" After fixing the branches on his back, Qi Rong waved the fruit in his hand, making a move so silly that he even felt surprised, "I'm back!"
The non-stop "heavy rain" stopped for an instant, Then he fell back into the sea with a splash, and looked back at the human being who was approaching him quickly. The mermaid's expression was startled, and a pair of sea-blue eyes were immediately lit up silently.
"Qi Rong!"
With his arms stretched out, the merman learned to hug the man in front of him without any guidance. His voice was pleasant, as if he had turned back into the child who got a new toy.
He didn't realize it before, but after being hugged so tightly, Qi Rong realized that there was something wrong with the wild mermaid's habit of not wearing clothes.
Carefully moving the other person away from his sensitive belly, Qi Rong patted the mermaid's fair and smooth back, signaling the other person to let go for now.
Probably knowing that men don't like water, the moment Qi Rong approached here, the beach that was originally extremely wet due to the mermaid playing in the water immediately became dry. He stroked the mermaid's soft silver hair appreciatively, and Qi Rong put down the branch. The fruits and wild fruits were piled up, and an open fire was lit with the tinder in the fire starter.
Suddenly tightening her body, the mermaid immediately entered an obvious state of defense. Thinking of his vague memory of falling last night, Qi Rong understood with lightning flash where the vigilance and fear in the other person's eyes came from.
"Wait!" He boldly stepped forward and held down the mermaid's tail, which seemed to be about to move. Qi Rong followed the other man's example and sat down on the bumpy but not too intrusive rock.
"It's okay," Qi Rong explained patiently when he saw the mermaid looking at him blankly, "It won't hurt you now." "
This is fire. When you are far enough away from it, the fire it brings will There is only warmth."
Qi Rong, who deliberately slowed down the pronunciation of "fire", thought that the other party would learn from him like before, but unexpectedly found that the other party was distracted in front of him.
As if she couldn't hear the man's voice at all, the blue-tailed mermaid just lowered her eyes blankly and followed the other person's line of sight. Only then did Qi Rong realize that his hand was still on the mermaid's blue tail and he hadn't taken it back.
Unlike other fish, the scales of the silver-haired mermaid seemed to be pieces of blue ice crystals of different shades. Through the thin layer of scales, Qi Rong could even feel the flow of blood in the opponent's tail.
"Sorry," Qi Rong, who knew that the tail was a bit special to the mermaid, and was anxious to stop the other person, let go of his left hand, "be careful next time."
Swinging its tail as if to get rid of something, the mermaid returned to its usual ease in an instant, and poked its skin that was slowly getting hot. The mermaid no longer had the initial resistance to the orange-red flame.
Not sure whether the other party listened to what he said, Qi Rong sighed, picked a fruit and wiped it clean with the handkerchief in his pocket: "You have to have a name, right? I can't always call you 'Hey'. "
Although she doesn't understand human language, the mermaid's IQ and understanding are very high. After the man pointed at himself and said "Qi Rong" and then pointed at him with a puzzled expression, the mermaid immediately said two "Qi Rong". There were syllables that Rong didn't understand.
He didn't understand the meaning, but the pleasant tone sounded like "xier". Passing the clean fruit to the mermaid's lips, Qi Rong raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "Okay, you will be Xier from now on. ."
Mermaids are particularly keen on distinguishing sounds. When they heard their names being called out in such a non-standard way, the blue-tailed mermaid didn't even pay attention to the fruit brought to her lips, and angrily corrected Qi Rong's words over and over again. Pronunciation comes.
However, the vocal organs of humans and mermaids are different. No matter how much the mermaid slows down his speech, the man can only pronounce the word "Hill" in the common language of the empire.
Lowering his head in frustration, the mermaid fiercely took a bite of the red fruit that the man held up to his mouth.
Without knowing what to do, the mermaid's lips unconsciously brushed against Qi Rong's fingertips. Looking at the other person's eyes that were narrowed by the sweet taste, Qi Rong felt that he should teach the other person some "precautions".
Although the other party is just a wild mermaid isolated from the world, in Qi Rong's world view, the mermaid is not just an animal.
Pulling his fingers away from the other party's pale pink lips, Qi Rong rubbed his temples and took out a shirt from the space bag: "Sil, do you want to wear clothes?" Biting the fruit and
batting his eyelashes in confusion, the mermaid Looking at the white shirt that was exactly the same as the man's, he finally nodded hesitantly.
"Very good."
Taking a long breath, Qi Rong secretly sighed that he finally didn't have to dodge the spring sunshine that occasionally appeared under the other person's silver hair. He knew that the mermaid's hands with sharp nails couldn't fasten the buttons. The man did it himself, finally doing it for the other person. Successfully put on the "logo of a civilized society".
"Clothes!"
After correcting the mispronunciation, the mermaid happily patted the fish's tail, accurately letting the sea water cool down the fire-heated body.
Qi Rong, who was not wet at all but was still tired: ...I don't know if it's too late for him to snatch the other person's clothes away now.
It's better not to wear that half-covering white shirt.
