After hugging the tail of the fish

Chapter 8 After Leaving the Ocean Basin

Chi Yuan, who is missed by the little mermaid, is waiting to reunite with his fellow clan at about 1000 meters underwater.

Around him are his right-hand men, Gao and Kos.

This is already the third time that Gao peeked at the seaweed belt with a bow knot around Chi Yuan's waist.

Chi Yuan glanced at him impatiently: "Ask whatever you want."

Mermaids rely on sound waves to communicate, similar to dolphins.

They have their own language system, and they can interpret each other's meaning through sound waves.

Humans do not have the ability to interpret sound waves. Although Yu Guiyang is also a mermaid, he is not a native mermaid, so he has lost the ability to interpret sound waves.

So there was a communication barrier between Chi Yuan and Yu Guiyang.

This communication barrier can only be broken if Guiyang learns to interpret the mermaid's sound waves, or Chiyuan learns the human language.

Gao's gossip soul was burning, and he asked quickly, "My lord, won't you tell us its story?" He pointed to the seaweed, which didn't look like Chi Yuan did it himself.

"Are you curious?" Chi Yuan's eyes were extremely oppressive.

The nervous Gao nodded his head as a matter of course, even a mermaid can see that this cute belt is incompatible with the temperament of the Law Enforcer.

Kos desperately winked at Gao, this idiot dared to inquire about the private affairs of the law enforcer!

Did he forget that the last time he inquired about the parents of the law enforcers in the group, he was punished to train the group of underage mermaid cubs.

Don't think that this is an easy job, the underage cubs are at their best when they are fighting, and they can fight for a long time if you give them a piece of seaweed.

A well-nourished mermaid cub is no weaker than an adult mermaid. During that time, Gao was beaten every day until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

Thanks to the strong physique of the mermaid, this guy was able to appear here.

How could Gao feel the good intentions of his companion, and even touched Kos with his elbow: "Stop pretending, I know you are curious too."

Kos: ...

Brother, if you want to die yourself, don't bully me.

Just when Kos thought that Gao was going to die, the law enforcer said, "It was given by a little guy."

The sound wave is a gentleness that he has never heard from Chi Yuan's mouth.

Kos and Gao looked at each other, there is something wrong!

Gao, who is not afraid of death, asked: "Is he also a mermaid, can we meet him?"

"No." Chi Yuan flatly refused, it would scare the little mermaid.

The chat ended here, because other mermaids in the clan also came to the meeting point one after another.

Like dolphins, mermaids are also a highly social species. They generally form groups based on geographical distribution, and then the members of the group select the most powerful mermaid to act as the law enforcement officer and manage various affairs in the group.

It is also known as the patriarch of mankind.

The ethnic group is also named after the law enforcer, and the ethnic group led by Chi Yuan is called the Chi Yuan Tribe.

"Master Law Enforcer, the Chiyuan tribe has assembled, and I request the next step." Zhang Chang, the oldest mermaid, said to Chiyuan.

Chi Yuan nodded slightly and said: "The mermaid cubs and other mermaids who do not participate in the migration stay in the territory, and the sub-adult and adult fish follow Gao and Kos and try to reach Iceland before February."

It should be noted that Iceland here is not named by humans, it is located in Iceland in northwest Europe.

The Iceland in Chiyuan Mouth generally refers to frozen islands.

And their destination is the underwater world of the frozen island.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the interesting habits of mermaids.

Many marine organisms have the characteristic of migration, some are to obtain food, and some are to survive in a suitable environment.

Mermaids are for reproduction.

The mermaid's tail is covered with dense and strong scales. Although these scales play a good role in protection, they also limit the behavior of mermaids in mating.

Of course, smart mermaids also have their own ways to continue the race.

They take advantage of the characteristics that temperature changes can soften the scales and promote the arrival of estrus, and they migrate again and again.

Migrating from the tropics to the frigid zone, from the warm waters to the cold Iceland, the mermaids overcome all kinds of difficulties, and finally complete the great harmony of life in the freezing weather.

God is fair.

Mermaids have evolved powerful strength and tenacious vitality, and have become one of the best ocean overlords, but they also have the problems of difficult reproduction and scarce numbers.

There are not a few mermaids lost on the migration route every year.

And don't think that everything will be fine if the migration is successful. The energetic young fish will fight to the death under Iceland in order to compete for a mate.

Chi Yuan was explaining the route to the clansmen.

Gao and Kos are deserting, anyway, they just need to follow the instructions of the Law Enforcer and lead the way, without having to worry about it.

"Cos, do you think Mr. Law Enforcer will find a spouse this time?" Gao asked in a low voice.

Kos shook his head: "Probably...or not."

The Law Enforcer is powerful, but he treats everyone in a business-like manner, even to those female mermaids who show affection to him.

Alas, mermen don't have to be so perfect.

After finishing the business, Chi Yuan handed over the clansman to Zhang Chang for arrangement, and took Gao and Kos to familiarize himself with the route.

Gao asked while swimming: "The little mermaid you mentioned just now, when do you plan to take him into our tribe?"

Chi Yuan asked back, "What do you think?"

"He should not be an adult yet. The juvenile mermaid cubs stay in the tribe, and the adult fish who stay in the territory will take good care of him." Gao believes that the mermaid cubs should stay with the mermaid cubs. Didn't you and Kos also know each other at that time?

Chi Yuan didn't speak.

He has his own concerns.

First, the mermaid is an extremely xenophobic species. The little mermaid can't speak or swim. If he comes to the tribe, he will be bullied by other mermaid cubs.

Second, he couldn't tell whether the little mermaid was an adult or not.

The most notable feature of juvenile fish is that their tails are obviously short and out of proportion to their upper body.

But the little mermaid is not like that. His tail is long and slender, and although his upper body is thin, his bones are well-proportioned.

Perhaps, he thought, the little mermaid belonged to a different subspecies of mermaid than he did.

The tails of the mermaids of their tribe are all brown, but the tails of the little mermaids are dark red.

Also, in his tribe, even a weak mermaid cub has the fighting power to rival a giant whale.

But the little mermaid can't even beat a crab, and even basic predation is a problem.

All these are enough to prove that the little mermaid and he do not belong to the same subspecies.

Perhaps, taking advantage of this migration opportunity, she can help the little mermaid find her family or her tribe.

For some reason, Chi Yuan couldn't help frowning at the thought of the little mermaid returning to other tribes.

The tyranny in my heart was almost uncontrollable.

"Come here first, you guys go back." The tone was terribly cold.

Gao and Kos couldn't help trembling, and they didn't dare to follow behind Chi Yuan anymore.

Chi Yuan followed Yu Guiyang's breath to swim, maybe even he didn't notice it, he was so eager to see the little mermaid.

He swam fast and it didn't take him long to return to their roost.

At that time, Yu Guiyang had already fallen asleep.

He didn't see Brother Ku after waking up just now. He wanted to wait for Brother Ku to come back, but he closed his eyes while waiting.

Now, he was leaning against the fat man, his head bit by bit, and his mouth was slightly pouted, as if there was a trace of grievance that he couldn't wait for anyone.

Chi Yuan's heart softened all of a sudden, he picked up the little mermaid horizontally, and gently placed it on the fat pier.

Yu Guiyang seemed to have dreamed of something delicious, his mouth kept moving, and he gnawed on Chi Yuan's arm.

The bite force of the little mermaid is really nothing to Chi Yuan, not even painful, only a little itchy.

It's like Guiyang has eaten enough, let go of it, let go of it, and there are only two rows of shallow tooth marks left on Chi Yuan's arm.

Knowing that the little mermaid is afraid of the cold, Chi Yuan took the initiative to lie on his side next to Gui Yang, and carefully lifted the head of the little mermaid so that he could rest on his arm.

Good night, little mermaid.

……

The next day, when Yu Guiyang woke up, he saw that the big brother mermaid had returned, bringing back a striped anglerfish.

Speaking of anglerfish, he couldn't help but think of the first time he met Brother Mermaid.

He was almost caught in two by the crab, but luckily the big brother mermaid rescued him.

At that time, he would never have imagined that he would live with Big Brother Mermaid for so long and have a peaceful and warm home.

Ouch, that sounds so weird.

In short, he is very grateful for the appearance of the big brother mermaid, who has brought him both material and spiritual food and clothing for his life under the sea.

Closer to home, today's breakfast is striped anglerfish, a little leftover tuna and halibut.

Yu Guiyang and Chi Yuan had a tacit understanding to eat the tuna and flounder that were not so fresh first, and they didn't even let go of the meat on the bones easily.

Looking at the tuna and flounder that had become skeletons, Yu Guiyang felt a sense of accomplishment.

He can really eat, cover his face.

After the main course is done, it's time for dessert.

It's a dessert, but it's much more than that.

Although this striped anglerfish is not as big as tuna and halibut, it still weighs twenty or thirty catties.

Save a little and have a little left over for a snack.

As I said before, anglerfish is also called lantern fish. It looks ugly but tastes great.

The taste of striped anglerfish is even better among anglerfish.

In addition to the taste, their mating behavior is also very interesting.

It's a pity that Brother Ku couldn't understand what he said, otherwise he would definitely have to educate him about it.

The reproductive behavior of anglerfish can be described in two words, that is wonderful.

Every spring and summer, the eggs laid by the female anglerfish will hatch into larvae on the sea surface. When they develop to a certain level, the male fish will choose a female fish to go with them.

This kind of "partnership" is full of use and demand.

Once the male fish meets a suitable female fish, it will bite through the abdominal tissue of the female fish and drill into its subcutaneous parasitism.

The subcutaneous tissue of the female fish will also grow rapidly, wrapping the male fish completely, and sinking to the bottom of the sea with the male fish in the body.

In this way, they successfully live in the "two fish world", but the male fish will soon die, leaving only a ball of testicles, ready to be fertilized by the female fish at any time.

If you think this is another kind of life-and-death dependence, you are wrong.

The size of the female fish is about [-] times that of the male fish, and the female fish is destined not to have only one partner in its life.

When Yu Guiyang was visiting specimens at the Oceanographic Museum, he found a female anglerfish with eight lumps on its body.

This is not the most outrageous.

You must know that the sea is vast, and some single male fish cannot find female fish, and they will change themselves into female fish, waiting for male fish to combine with them.

Let the brothers have a good time in the real sense.

Whoops, off topic.

There is no dipping sauce on the bottom of the sea. He used his knowledge of marine life as a dipping sauce, and he actually felt that this anglerfish was a bit more delicious.

It's delicious, but it's too little, and I can't bear to eat it.

The meat of anglerfish is as firm as lobster. It is a real delicacy, and you will want to eat it again after eating it once.

But, a mermaid who is diligent and thrifty should know how not to indulge in his appetite. Brother Renku worked so hard to catch it, and eating it just once is too wasteful.

Yu Guiyang resisted the urge to continue eating.

But as the saying goes, there is a kind of hunger that makes parents think you are hungry.

Chi Yuan shaved off the bones of the remaining fish, held it in front of Yu Guiyang, and signaled him to continue eating.

He quickly shook his head, really no, I'm full!

Chi Yuan seemed to see through the stubbornness of the little mermaid's pretense, and looked at Yu Guiyang with helplessness and pampering.

He rolled the meat of the lantern fish into small balls, just as the little mermaid had done yesterday, and fed them to him.

smell good.

Damn, brother mermaid, you are playing with fire!

Yu Guiyang assures that he was never so greedy when he was still a human being, what the hell did the mermaid gene do to him!

Well, he compromised, and his name is Greed.

Yu Guiyang, who kept saying that he was full, was "forced" to eat up the rest of the fish.

Brother Mermaid is good or bad, hiccup...

He likes it very much.

However, the landlord's house has run out of grain, so what's for lunch?

Yu Guiyang glanced at Brother Ku, seeing that Brother Ku didn't intend to leave, a question mark appeared above his head.

Isn't Brother Cool going to hunt today?

It's not impossible, the seabed products are also very rich, but the taste is not so good.

He picked up the crustacean at his feet and threw it into his mouth to chew. It was crunchy, but tasteless.

Gah!

It is easy to go from thrift to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. The ancients never deceived me!

Chi Yuan rubbed the little mermaid's hair in distress. He made a mistake and should bring more food.

Now that they have almost digested it, it is time to go.

The adult fish's quiet gaze brought Yu Guiyang a different kind of confusion. Today's Ku Ge seems to be different from usual, as if he is hiding something from him.

That's right, even if Brother Ku wanted to tell him, he wouldn't understand.

He thought carefully about the habits of marine life. There are two possibilities for emptying the food inventory. One is that he needs to escape quickly when he encounters a strong enemy.

The other is to plan to leave this sea area.

This is an oceanic basin, sex rarely happens, and Ku Ge's combat power even evades deep-sea giant crabs.

There is only the second possibility.

Are you moving?

Yu Guiyang looked around, although it was dark and monotonous, it gave him a place to live at the beginning of his journey.

After so long, he was really reluctant.

But if he had to choose between following Kuge or staying here, he would 100% choose the former.

After all, he is tired of the food here!

Follow Kuge to have meat!

Alas, he is so shallow.

I hope that the next meal the mermaid brother prepares for him can soothe the wounds in his heart.

Yu Guiyang stroked Pangdun, goodbye Pangdun, I wish you success in losing weight.

But if you lose weight, I won't be able to sleep with you next time we meet, it's really embarrassing.

He ran to the place where the crab leg shell was buried before, dug it out and took a look, and was pleasantly surprised to find that many little ones had settled in the crab leg shell.

He hurriedly called the big brother mermaid over, and together they emptied out the small things inside and added another meal.

It can be said to be very insane.

After packing up all their belongings, Yu Guiyang and Chi Yuan finally set off.

He rejected the embrace of the big brother mermaid, finally had a chance to show off his learning achievements, he couldn't let it go easily.

In Chi Yuan's eyes, the little mermaid's tail wagging was a little clumsy and incoherent, but this was already a great improvement.

To encourage him, Chi Yuan also slowed down and followed Yu Guiyang.

At first, Yu Guiyang swam vigorously, and it could be seen that he was really training hard.

But soon he was tired.

The little mermaid, who couldn't hold on any longer, just lay down on her back with her belly up, and went on strike!

Woohoo, why does he swim so easily when he sees the mermaid brother, but he swims so hard, did he miss any steps?

Damn, where did I fail to keep up!

The exhausted and paralyzed Yu Guiyang was on all fours, refusing to move no matter what he said.

Chi Yuan smiled sullenly, and the green color in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

Facing the shameless little mermaid, he showed great patience, grabbed Yu Guiyang's arm and wrapped it around his neck, signaling the little mermaid to hold on tight.

Then he carried Yu Guiyang and moved forward at a very high speed, more than three times faster than before.

So, why do you have to work hard when you can lie down?

Yu Guiyang scolded himself for being depraved in his heart, and then hugged Brother Mermaid even tighter.

The current was too fast, making his scales always slippery, making him always worried that he would slip out of the big brother mermaid's arms.

Aware of the little mermaid's overt dependence, Chi Yuan's chest trembled slightly, and he couldn't hide his smile.

If Kos and Gao saw this scene, their jaws would drop in shock.

Their unsmiling Law Enforcer actually laughed, which shocked them no less than a submarine volcano eruption!

Too bad they can't see it.

The only possible audience, Yu Guiyang, was also obsessed with the beauty of the roadside.

I don't understand the style.

Gradually, Yu Guiyang found that this sea area looked familiar - didn't Brother Ku bring him here a few days ago?

So the purpose of their trip was to see dolphins?

Yep, what better way to relieve the worry of being away from home than to pet a baby dolphin?

If so, go get a bunch of them!

The arrival of Yu Guiyang and Chi Yuan made the group of dolphins boil instantly.

Smart dolphins will remember the appearance and voice of their friends. Undoubtedly, the two mermaids who rescued the dolphin mother and baby dolphin are their guests.

The mother dolphin brought the baby dolphin, and she took the initiative to let Yu Guiyang ride on it.

Of course he couldn't be more happy, but the big brother mermaid seems to have a different opinion.

Being hugged even tighter by the big brother mermaid, Yu Guiyang could only regretfully decline the mother dolphin's invitation.

Woohoo, he really wanted to rub the baby dolphin's belly.

I haven't seen you for two days, and the baby dolphin seems to have grown up again, and the belly must feel better!

The tyrant, Brother Ku, actually deprived him of the right to play with little dolphins.

He is angry!

Chi Yuan pinched the little mermaid's swollen cheeks, and told him to be safe and not to be impatient.

It was because the mermaid brother's gaze was too pure, Yu Guiyang was attracted by it, and unconsciously spit out the air from his mouth.

Bubble slipped to the surface of the sea against Chi Yuan's cheek.To appease the little mermaid, Chi Yuan swam to the middle of the group of dolphins and invited them to hunt together with sound waves.

The dolphins with outstanding IQ are good team fighters. They quickly gather together and prepare to hunt together with Chi Yuan.

Dolphin mothers or dads with cubs swim slowly with the group, always paying attention to protecting dolphin cubs.

For the sake of safety, Chi Yuan left Yu Guiyang on the mother dolphin, and gave him a look of obediently waiting for him.

Yu Guiyang nodded, indicating that he would be obedient.

Play for fun, play for trouble, he won't make fun of dry rice.

Let's go! Let's go!

A few dolphins formed their formation and started circling around the selected shallow sea area.

Chi Yuan and the other dolphins stood aside to watch the battle.

Yu Guiyang hugged the baby dolphin, feeling a little confused.

What is the dolphin doing?

The baby dolphin in his arms was very excited and patted its belly vigorously with its two short side fins.

Baby, you're a dolphin, you're not a seal.

The side fins are for paddling, not belly pats.

The little mermaid paddling saw the dolphins swimming faster and faster, stirring up the shallow sea sand and gradually shrinking into a whirlpool.

The school of fish was caught in the vortex and was unable to escape, so they could only jump out of the water.

At this moment, the dolphins who were waiting on the side followed closely, jumped up, caught the fish firmly, and swallowed it in one gulp.

This seamless cooperation, smooth cooperation, is simply an eye-opener!
