After hugging the tail of the fish

It's like going abroad to finish the lecture, only to find that I'm a little hungry.

Outside the cave, the family members of the female mermaid stretched their necks to look into the cave. It's been so long since my wife hasn't come back, so nothing will happen, right?

Yu Guiyang embarrassedly apologized to the female mermaids: "I'm sorry everyone, I wasted too much of your time today."

The female mermaids expressed that you are welcome.

And after listening to Yu Guiyang's explanation, they all understood the importance of studying mermaid fertility.

They only saw the immediate benefits before, and they only regarded it as a reference for future generations to find a partner.

Small, the layout is too small.

Yu Guiyang told them that the study of mermaid fertility is crucial to the continuation of the mermaid population, and it is a key to solving the difficult problem of mermaid fertility.

This is a long journey, and no one knows whether there will be results and where the end will be.

But there must always be the first batch of mermaids to do it, to struggle and work hard, to pave the way for the later mermaids.

The female mermaids just feel that they have an extra responsibility.

This doesn't make them feel heavy, on the contrary, it just gives them motivation.

Giving everything for the ethnic group is their pursuit and their glory.

They took away their partners who were watching at the entrance of the cave. The male mermaids thought they could finally play cards with peace of mind, but they were dragged away by their partners.

It is conceivable that they will have an unforgettable night.

Seeing Chi Yuan's figure, Yu Guiyang swam to the entrance of the cave to welcome his return.

"I'm back." Yu Guiyang was a little guilty. It seemed that Chi Yuan had been back for a while. I wonder if he heard him talking secretly with the female mermaids in the cave.

Probably not, the outside is so noisy, and this cave is not connected, it only has one opening to contact with the outside world.

Therefore, its sound insulation effect is excellent. If Chi Yuan stayed with the male mermaids, it would be impossible to hear his conversation with the female mermaids.

Well, he has to behave normally, don't let Chi Yuan notice that something is wrong.

Just as Yu Guiyang guessed, Chi Yuan did not hear what he was talking to the female mermaid.

Chi Yuan also wanted to ask, but before asking, it was important to fill the stomach of the little mermaid first.

Well, today's dinner is arctic cod, this kind of fish is not big, but Chiyuan is actually full of a sealskin bag!

He casually grabbed one of them and looked at it.

The appearance of arctic cod is still very characteristic, with a short head and a big mouth, and the fish scales are grayish brown with dark brown spots.

This fish is one of the most common fish species in the Arctic Ocean, and it is also the primary hunting target of most mermaids during the breeding season. Arctic cod grows extremely fast in cold seas, and the survival rate of eggs is also very high, especially in the Arctic Ocean , the number is so large that it is almost flooded.

Of course, except for Yu Guiyang, the worst food Chi Yuan hunted for him was tuna.

Not every mermaid can be as extravagant as Yu Guiyang, and even Yu Guiyang cannot continue to be so extravagant.

Because as the weather gets colder, the frozen area gets bigger and bigger, and the larger cold-water marine organisms have to migrate to the coast.

If Chi Yuan wanted to hunt them, it would take half a day just to go back and forth, which was not cost-effective.

Arctic cod are more resistant to cold than other cold-water marine organisms.

It can even live actively in an environment of about two degrees below zero. Of course, it must be ensured that the water body does not freeze, otherwise no matter how cold-resistant the fish will be, it will freeze together with the sea water.

Ordinary fish freeze at minus one degree, and they can go beyond minus one degree, and they are called the most freeze-resistant fish along with Antarctic cod because there is a special chemical substance in their blood called antifreeze protein.

It can lower the freezing point of water and prevent body fluids from freezing.

Although Arctic cod is small in size, it is not as plump and juicy as seals and sea lions.

But its taste will not lose too much to these behemoths at all, and the tender, delicate and refreshing meat is definitely a breath of fresh air in this cold sea.

It doesn't have the thick fat of other cold-water sea creatures, but it's high in protein.

And its liver can be said to be the essence of the whole fish.

The liver is larger than other fish of the same size and has a high oil content. The best quality cod liver oil we know is extracted from the liver of arctic cod.

While eating, Chi Yuan suddenly asked him: "Yangyang, what are you planning to do by calling the female mermaid into the cave alone?"

Come, come, brother mermaid finally asked!

Yu Guiyang pretended to be deep: "Well, there are some things I want them to do."

Chi Yuan asked curiously, "What can't be done by a male mermaid, but must be done by a female mermaid?"

"Didn't you notice that female mermaids are generally more patient than male mermaids, and have better aesthetics. So I plan to let them make some ornaments with surplus arctic clams, it's so pretty!"

Although the original intention was to prevaricate Chi Yuan, but as he talked, Yu Guiyang began to think that this was a good idea.

The mermaid's decorations are pitiful, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make a simple seaweed belt, and there are so many mermaids vying to imitate it.

Of course, the new male and female mermaids who joined the Chiyuan tribe were also instigated by their partners and newcomers to fall in love with the seaweed belt.

He is even willing to go to the continental shelf without hesitation, find a seaweed belt and ask his partner to help him fasten it.

It can be seen from this that mermaids are very fond of decorations, but they have no traces of decorations on their bodies, which is quite surprising to Yu Guiyang.

After all, even the cavemen started wearing necklaces made of bones, shells, etc., but the mermaids had none.

He thought there could be several reasons. Firstly, the scales of mermaids are very dazzling, which reduces their demand for decorations. Secondly, there is a lack of raw materials for the earliest hemp ropes in the ocean, so mermaids have no way to connect shells and other things together. , and it is very inconvenient to carry alone, which affects hunting.

Although Yu Guiyang is not a professional jewelry designer, he has seen finished jewelry after all, and his vision is much higher than that of mermaids.

Indeed, plants with high flexibility in the ocean, even seaweeds, are easy to break when pulled hard. It takes a lot of seaweeds to be tied together to prevent them from breaking easily.

But that would be too cumbersome and not pretty.

So Yu Guiyang thought of another thing, fish tendon, which was the fishing line he used to suture Nanyang's wound.

The fish line is the side line of the fish, also known as the fishy line. Many chefs like to take out the fishy line before cooking large fish, which is said to remove the fishy smell.

I don't know if it can remove the fishy smell, but the fish tendon tastes really fishy. It has a certain degree of flexibility, but the fishing line of small fish is easy to break.

If you want to make necklaces and bracelets, you must use the tendons of big fish.

Since you want to make jewelry for the mermaid and improve the spiritual realm of the mermaid, you must do your best.

Yu Guiyang has always had a strong desire to explore, so he dragged Chi Yuan to catch fish of suitable size near the continental shelf.

By the way, it can also make Chi Yuan quickly forget to interrogate him about the inside story of his private chat with the female mermaid, killing two birds with one stone, he is really a genius!

Chi Yuan was puzzled and asked, "Is the cod not delicious?" Otherwise, why would the little mermaid go hunting with him.

Yu Guiyang shook his head, and told Chi Yuan that making jewelry requires flexible materials, and fish tendon is one of the most suitable materials.

Chi Yuan didn't doubt it when he heard the words, but if they were going this trip, they might not be able to sleep at night.

Because they are just below Iceland, which can be regarded as the center of the Arctic, there is a long distance from the continental shelf.

"Sleep for a while, and I'll wake you up when you get there." Chi Yuan picked up the little mermaid horizontally, intending to hug him.

Only then did Yu Guiyang realize how wrong his calculation was.

Oh, why did he forget, it's not easy to catch a big fish now, otherwise Chi Yuan wouldn't bring him back a small cod.

He struggled to get down: "No, no, no."

"It's okay," Chi Yuan tightened his arms around the little mermaid, "Go to sleep, we'll be here when you wake up."

"It's too far away. If we want to go, we can go another day." Yu Guiyang didn't want to tire his boyfriend.

Chi Yuan said, "If you don't go, can you sleep at night?"

Yu Guiyang replied not so sure: "It should be possible."

Well, he admits that he has trouble falling asleep if he's thinking about something all the time.

But it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't fall asleep. If you are extremely sleepy, you will fall asleep naturally.

Even so, Yu Guiyang didn't want Chi Yuan to be too tired, he couldn't fall asleep, he could overcome it, there was no need to go tonight.

So he rubbed Chi Yuannan's cheek: "Be good, go another day, okay, I don't want you to be tired."

Chi Yuan chuckled, and kissed Yu Guiyang's face that was about to turn away: "Don't worry, you'll know when the time comes, I'm not tired."

Ah, when Chi Yuan said he was not tired, did he mean to take him to the continental shelf, or something else...

He must be thinking too much, how could the upright brother mermaid say such things!

While thinking about it, Chi Yuan said again: "You know when I'm talking about."

Yu Guiyang: "..."

Oh my god, this damn estrus actually forced the big brother mermaid to turn yellow.

It's in vain that he trusts Chi Yuan so much, I didn't expect you, brother mermaid, to be this kind of mermaid!

Good or bad, but he really likes it, hehehe.

Fortunately, Chi Yuan didn't know what Yu Guiyang was thinking, otherwise he might not be able to go tonight.

At first, Yu Guiyang was quite energetic and swam with Chi Yuan for a while.

At the back, his physical strength and energy couldn't keep up, and he instinctively flicked his tail while dozing off.

Chi Yuan looked at his beloved little mermaid shaking his head in a daze. He was so sleepy that he was still trying to swim forward.

It's so cute that his heart will melt.

In the end, Yu Guiyang, who couldn't hold on, finally closed his eyes and fell headfirst.

Chi Yuan quickly helped him up and held him in his arms.

He stared at the little mermaid in his arms, the fragile throat was exposed to him unsuspectingly, and the light blue blood vessels on it were clearly visible.

Yu Guiyang closed his eyes, and instinctively leaned towards the warmth, absorbing the warmth from the other person.

The feeling of dependence is palpable.

Chi Yuan's eyes darkened, and finally he couldn't control himself, and rubbed against the little mermaid in his arms.

The delicate skin of the little mermaid is smooth and soft.

Tastier than the freshest game he's ever hunted.

But it seemed to turn the clouds and rains in his heart, disturbing the situation.

The author has something to say: build some infrastructure for the mermaids first.
