The rattan basket behind Yi made a few noises, and Song Wen looked over suspiciously, "Go fishing so early?" Song Wen glared at him dissatisfied, "Don't you like eating sea fish? There are still many in the warehouse." If the stored seabird meat is not good, you can also slaughter the few pheasants and seabirds you are raising. Why do you need to go to the sea to hunt before dawn? And the weather is so bad today, what if there is a storm? "

"I didn't hunt." Seeing that Song Wen was angry, Yi quickly explained: "I just heard a strange sound and went to check."

Song Wen looked at him suspiciously, Yi coughed lightly, and added: "I just saw a few sea fish on the way, so I caught them back."

Song Wen didn't want to argue with Yi in the heavy snow, so he helped him untie the rope around his waist, and took him back to the wooden house first.

Ah Hen did not go back to the house with the two of them, but tilted his neck and looked curiously at the vibrating rattan basket behind Yi Yi. When the two opened the door curtain and entered, Ah Hen took small steps and walked out for a while. I raised my head and looked at the snowflakes falling on my body. This feeling is the same as when I was in the breeding ground, but it is a pity that there are no other emperor penguin companions around.

A Hen shook his neck a few times, and then moved in another direction. It can walk back and forth between the wooden house and thatched shed. This is its favorite activity route. Of course, if A Hen likes it, it can also Being able to swim around in the water, its speed in the water is no worse than that of a dolphin, but because the scars have not been completely removed, and Ahen's body was severely emaciated before, Song Wen was worried that there were some hidden injuries that could not be healed. Naturally, he didn't want Ah Hen to touch the water so soon.

On this point, Ah Hen has been obediently listening to Song Wen's words, even if it occasionally stands on the shore and looks into the sea, it has no thought of going into the water at all.

After returning to the wooden house, Song Wen first took off the cold and hard animal fur coat on Yi's body, put it by the fire to bake it, and then asked him to wipe off the water droplets on his body, and then put the animal fur coat they used as a quilt at night. Put the skin on Wing's body.

It wasn't long before Song Wen got out of the bed, and the animal skin was still warm, so Yi couldn't help squinting his eyes comfortably, but he still remembered the business, took a sip of the light salt water that Song Wen handed over, and looked at himself. Tell each other what happened.

"Song Song, I found a whale carcass."

"Whale carcass?" Speaking of whale carcasses, the humpback whale that was washed up on the shore of the island when he first came to the island appeared in Song Wen's mind. When I smell it, it seems that I can smell an unbearable rancid smell in my nose.

However, thanks to the whale explosion, it woke up Xiao Dao, who was almost completely unconscious at that time, and blasted some barnacles away from Xiao Dao, so that Xiao Dao could recover from being parasitized by barnacles. He breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise, the island would sink if it could not survive the burial.

"Where did you see it?" Song Wen asked anxiously, and then wanted to go outside to have a look. If the whale carcass was too close to them, let Xiao Dao take them away as soon as possible. He didn't want to experience it again Whale burst.

Yi grabbed Song Wen's wrist, but didn't spill the half-drunk salt water in his hand, "Don't worry, the whale carcass can't rush to the island, it's soaking in the sea water."

"Is it soaking in water?"

"Don't talk about that first, I'll show you something." Yi dragged over the rattan basket next to it. There was a lid on the rattan basket tied with a rope, and it was impossible to see what was inside unless it was opened.

At this moment, the rattan basket was still shaking slightly, as if something locked inside was trying to break free.

Song Wen was a little curious about what Yi got back. After all, if it was an ordinary sea fish, Yi wouldn't have said mysteriously that he would show it to him.

Except for some large sea beasts and fishes living in the deep sea, those sea fishes have already been caught by wing catchers. At the beginning, Song Wen saw some strange-looking sea fishes and was interested in studying them. Now these sea fishes are important to him. It's just different food.

"Woooo."

A muffled sound came from the rattan basket, as if something had its mouth covered and couldn't make a sound.

Wing opened the rattan basket, as Song Wen thought before, there were a lot of sea fish in the rattan basket, but there was a sea fish in the middle with a pair of flippers, and the black flippers kept struggling in the pile of fish, As if trying to break free.

"What is this?" Song Wen saw such a strange-looking sea fish for the first time.

Before he reached out to grab it, Yi had already grabbed the flipper in his hand first, and lifted the sea fish out of the rattan basket as soon as he lifted it.

It was a gray-brown creature with fish scales on its back, but apart from its flippers, it also had a pair of human-like hands. The top of its head was smooth, with no hair, but two long tentacles. , just like the catfish's whiskers, on the top of the head, following the opponent's movements, the tentacles also trembled up and down.

what is this?

Song Wen looked up and down at the creature in Yi's hands. It was about as tall as Yi's calf. Its hands were tied with ropes, and a piece of fish skin was stuffed into its mouth. It looked a bit like whale skin, with fresh fish meat stuck to it. The tail of the skin was bitten to pieces, and Song Wen discovered that the strange creature had a mouthful of sharp teeth, and fish residue could be seen between the teeth. It was obvious that the whale skin was directly bitten by the other party.

It has a pair of slightly protruding big eyes, with a bit of blue like sea water, and a big mouth, which almost reaches behind the ears when making expressions, so that people can clearly see the sharpness of the teeth. The shape of it is not the same as that of a human being, it looks a bit like a shark tooth.

"Du, let me go." The strange creature found that it couldn't break free from Yi's grasp, and was hanged upside down by Yi's ankles. All the blood rushed to its head, and its whole skin was slightly green. His face was flushed, his mouth opened and he spit out human words loudly.

Seeing it speak, Yi shook happily, and said to Song Wen: "Look, this thing can talk, but it looks a little ugly." He said with a bit of disgust, and stuffed the creature back into the rattan basket to go.

"You're ugly, you're all ugly." The creature slipped among the sea fish and couldn't get up, but Song Wen saw the opponent's appearance clearly and didn't intend to get up. The sea fish kicked on itself, and it buried most of its head behind the sea fish.

It seems that doing so can make it feel a little more secure, and its momentum has also increased, and its energy is full. If its hands were not tied, it would probably have to puff up its chest and put on its hips to argue loudly, "I'm from the mermaid clan, I advise you to release me as soon as possible."

Song Wen: "..."

"Mermaid?" Yi looked up and down the other party's body. Although he had a pair of facial features similar to humans, that appearance was really not good-looking for the general aesthetics of orcs, not to mention the other party's bald head. She doesn't have a single hair, and her lower body is also flippers, which doesn't look like the mermaid that You Yi imagined.

Yi asked suspiciously, "Where's your fish tail?"

The creature froze when he heard this question, as if he had a guilty conscience, he couldn't escape anyway, so he simply buried his head among the sea fish, pretending that he didn't hear Yi's question.

The nose couldn't help moving, and the salty fishy smell made it belatedly reminded that the rattan basket full of sea fish was food that he couldn't catch.

It first sneaked a glance at the tall orc from the sea fish's gap, and then quietly took a bite of the sea fish in front of it. The sea fish was still alive when it was caught, and its body hurt, and its tail flicked up. , It actually hit the creature's face, leaving an obvious red mark.

The creature's big eyes were full of disbelief, obviously everyone was the prey trapped in the rattan basket, the sea fish dared to hit itself, it pursed its lips, very angry, and simply opened its mouth The sea fish tore off a large piece of meat, before it could chew it, it was picked up by its wings and thrown to the ground.

Yi looked angrily at the sea fish that was missing a large piece of meat, stared at the strange creature with bulging cheeks, and didn't intend to spit out the meat that reached its mouth, "This is our food, if you dare to catch their attention, I'll chop you up and feed the birds." Pheasants and seabirds can eat meat, and such a big thing is enough to feed them for several days.

The creature shrank its neck, even though it threatened with a vicious voice, it was impossible for it to spit out the food in its mouth, but it could still be seen from its expression with a bit of dread and fear, its eyeballs drooping After turning around a few times, the fish in his mouth was swallowed whole before he could chew it. He was almost choked, and even the base of his neck had blue veins from the difficult swallowing action.

They made a lot of noise, and the strange creature didn't lower its voice, as if speaking loudly could increase its momentum, Ah Man and Ah Fat, who were still sleeping in the room, were also woken up.

Fatty yawned a lot, and there were some physical tears in the corners of his eyes due to sleepiness. His black hair was messed up by him, and the bangs on his forehead were raised, making him look like a bird. Soft and sticky.

"What is this?" Ah Man was the first to discover the existence of that strange creature. Although some of the orcs in the forest have strange animal shapes, most of them will look normal after turning into a human form.

But the creature in front of me is too short in height, but its appearance is very similar to that of a human. At first glance, it looks like a human with scales on its back, webbed feet, and a slightly exaggerated appearance. facial features.

Ah Man has never seen such a creature, but just heard something about the mermaid, but could this kind of creature that has nothing to do with beauty be the mermaid that Song Wen mentioned?

Song Wen usually would give them a few scientific knowledge about the sea, and naturally mentioned the mermaid. Before, he knew a little about the mermaid from Xiao Dao, but even Xiao Dao had never seen this legendary race. Coupled with the fact that they stayed at sea for a long time, they were naturally interested in the creatures in the sea.

But if the ugly thing in front of them was the mermaid they had been thinking about, Ah Man felt that something was slowly cracking in his heart.
