"...I feel embarrassed to say it, but actually I can't tell the difference between east, west and north."
The red firelight danced, casting flickering light and shadow on Lin Sanjiu's face. Being baked by the high temperature, the fat seeped out from the meat, making an alluring "sizzling" sound, and from time to time there was some
When it dropped into the fire, the flames immediately shot up.
"Besides, I'm not familiar with this place, so I didn't expect that after jumping three hundred kilometers south, I would fall directly into the bottom of the sea." After saying this, Shen Lianqi gave a bitter smile and touched it with great pain.
A pair of shoes in hand. "Although this is an old version that has been discontinued by the arsenal, the price on the black market is still very high. Unexpectedly, it was destroyed by being soaked in sea water... Alas, probably when the arsenal was originally designed, it was not
Just think that someone would jump into the sea wearing it."
Lin Sanjiu also didn't expect that she would meet Shen Lianqi at the bottom of the sea 10,000 meters deep.
And...this is Shen Lianqi.
——After all, this is the first time the two of them have met. Wouldn’t it be too rude to directly ask “that thing”?
Lin Sanjiu tried hard for a while and finally looked away from him. She pretended to be nonchalant and turned the half-cooked meat in her hand - since she didn't have an iron drill or a wooden stick, she simply peeled it off.
He took some long fish bones instead and strung the meat piece by piece on top - then he asked with a straight face: "...Have you been living under the sea for a month?"
"Yes," Shen Lianqi said with a calm expression, "This is a very deep trench. Without escape shoes, it would be too difficult to climb out from the nearly 10,000-meter cliff. Fortunately, there are still some mutated marine creatures.
No one dies, and after a long time, I feel that life under the sea is quite leisurely."
"So that strange big fish just now... mutated?" Lin Sanjiu frowned and thought for a while, "But why did I see a McDonald's?"
"Have you ever heard of the deep-sea arowana? It has a light-emitting device on its chin, which is used to lure prey closer..." Shen Lianqi said while gesturing on his chin, "When I first came here, I was very lucky.
, this arowana didn't notice me, but instead attacked another mutated... well, who knows what it is. As soon as the light-emitting device lit up, the other thing didn't know what happened, as if it was fascinated.
, stupidly walking towards the arowana's mouth step by step... Looking at its excited look at that time, I guessed that in the other person's eyes, the arowana head might have turned into a female nest, which attracted the attention of the other party.
It went in to make love, and then the arowana bit it in two."
Having said this, Lin Sanjiu also remembered that she had indeed heard that some deep-sea creatures would use light-emitting devices to trap prey, and she immediately shuddered. Compared with those creatures, she was too small, and the dragon fish used it.
Don't bite her, otherwise with her dazed state at the time, it will be over with one bite.
"Speaking of this, Miss Lin, you are so awesome! Such a big arowana died in just a few seconds..." Shen Lianqi sighed, "You said it was because of...'Wusu poison'?"
That's right - Lin Sanjiu nodded.
When she walked into McDonald's, the glass door opened automatically. She walked in without touching anything with her hands. It wasn't until the floor tilted that Lin Sanjiu fell to the ground, and her skin
The "McDonald's" - that is, the mouth of the arowana was in direct contact; so after six seconds, the arowana died of [Wusu poison].
"It happened so fast, I haven't reacted yet." She smiled sheepishly.
"Haha! I see you are not slow at grilling fish!" Shen Lianqi joked and smacked his lips with a pity: "Hey, this fish was poisoned by you, so only you can eat it..."
Lin Sanjiu moved uncomfortably.
How can you still think about eating fish now? This sentence rolled over her heart, and she suppressed it without asking.
"By the way, you can wear my top. Although there is no one here, a girl can't live without a top." Shen Lianqi took off his shirt and said with a smile, "I use it anyway."
Not on."
Lin Sanjiu hesitated for a moment, then took it and put it on her body. Immediately, a strong sea smell filled her nostrils.
The fish was almost done, so Lin Sanjiu grabbed a handful of sea salt and sprinkled it on the meat. A salty meaty aroma immediately burst out from the fish. The deep-sea arowana looks very ugly, and the meat is rough and difficult to chew, but
Lin Sanjiu, who had not eaten meat for almost a year, still felt it was delicious and fragrant.
After eating a kilogram of fish in a row, Lin Sanjiu finally stopped - it wasn't that she was full, it was just that facing Shen Lianqi like this, she really couldn't eat anymore.
After thinking for a while, she finally made up her mind and asked the question that had been occupying her mind.
"Shen Lianqi, why...you turned into a fish?"
——It may not be appropriate to say it is a fish.
Although two things that looked like fish gills appeared on Shen Lianqi's cheeks; a pair of feet also turned into two fish tails, and a blue-white fish scale spread up along his calves, making his
The legs look like two forked mermaid lower bodies - but after all, he still retains his human form.
"Haha!" Shen Lianqi touched his head and laughed a little sheepishly: "I wasn't used to it at first, but as time went by, I found that this is really convenient!"
No, this is not a matter of Fang's inconvenience... Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at him and raised his hand, revealing a fin under his arm.
...Obviously half of his body has almost turned into a fish, but somehow, I always feel that compared to when he was on the dock, his personality seems to have changed a lot - more cheerful, calm, and different from the smart, flexible but...
The impression of being very timid is quite different.
"By the way, your question reminded me. Come on, I'll take you to where I live. Maybe you can meet my friends." Shen Lianqi suddenly stood up - two legs replaced his feet.
The fish tail looks very strong, supporting his body steadily.
Friends? Where can we find friends under the sea?
Lin Sanjiu was full of doubts, but she still stood up. She turned the several large pieces of arowana meat she had cut into into cards and put them away, and followed Shen Lianqi to the water's edge.
"Behind this water area, there is a sunken ship. It happened to be stuck in the rocks. The hull was not damaged. I live there now."
Lin Sanjiu jumped into the water with a splash, and Lin Sanjiu paddled with her hands and feet; she was not a good swimmer, and after a while she started to float and sink, and choked several times - Shen Lianqi couldn't see it, and motioned to Lin Sanjiu to use his shirt to
A knot was tied around his waist, and she grabbed the other end. With a slap of the fish's tail, the two of them slid out smoothly in the sea water.
"Look, I told you that it's very convenient for me to do this, right?" He smiled a little proudly.
Lin Sanjiu simply didn't know what to answer him.
Shen Lianqi seems to feel natural about his current appearance - from this point of view, maybe becoming a fishman was his own choice, and he may have used a magical prop from the "Twelve Central Realms"?
In the darkness, there was only the sound of the waves being split. Lin Sanjiu was pulled and swam in the dark water for a while, and Shen Lianqi suddenly said "We're here", and then she called out.
[Ability Polishing Agent], holding the small bottle high above his head, the silver light suddenly spread far away.
In the cold light, there was indeed a huge pale passenger ship, sandwiched between two rocks, half of it tilted in the air, and the other half sank under the dark water. This passenger ship was probably sunk by the waves.
Although the exterior is dilapidated, the style is still very new and it seems to be a sightseeing cruise ship.
The two stopped under the rock, climbed to the top, and jumped onto the deck of the passenger ship.
Shen Lianqi lived here for more than a month, his two fish tails swung back and forth, and he introduced Lin Sanjiu familiarly: "...the guest rooms are basically submerged in water, and the captain's cabin and dining room are still exposed. Oh.
, By the way, I also found a lot of bottled fresh water in the cab, enough for the two of us to drink."
Lin Sanjiu's eyes lit up: "Great! I was worried just now, thinking I had to drink fish blood to survive."
Those precious bottled waters have already been moved out by Shen Lianqi and stored in the captain's cabin. This is a foreign passenger ship, and the water is also a foreign brand. The bottle shape is quite novel, but the labels are soaked.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't wait to open a bottle. The cool mineral water flowed down her esophagus and into her body. She suddenly felt that her internal organs were moisturized.
It felt like she hadn't drank clean water for a long time - she couldn't bear to put down the half-drunk mineral water, so she turned it into a card and walked onto the deck with Shen Lianqi.
"You take a walk here first," he said with a smile, "I'll go find some of my friends."
Probably seeing her expression, he quickly added: "Don't worry, they are all good people. I have relied on them for a lot of help since I came here. Look around, I'm leaving.
!”
...Are they other human beings who have fallen to the bottom of the sea for various reasons? Lin Sanjiu had a question in her mouth, but before she could ask it, Shen Lianqi had already plunged into the water.
There is no other way, just like he said, just look around - Lin Sanjiu held up the [Ability Polishing Agent] and walked back and forth on the ship twice.
The novelty of seeing a shipwreck for the first time gradually wore off.
After there was one less person around her, the surroundings fell into a deathly silence, and darkness gradually enveloped her like a substance. With every step she took, the sound of footsteps would stir up long circles of echoes in the empty iron ship. The thought of
Now that he was at the bottom of a sea of 10,000 meters, Lin Sanjiu's mood would become empty and lonely.
Did Shen Lianqi spend a month alone like this? It really takes a little willpower.
Not wanting to leave, she put away the ability polishing agent and called out the mineral water card. Just after deactivating it, Lin Sanjiu suddenly said "Huh?", as if she felt something was not right.
But before she could think about it carefully, Shen Lianqi's excited voice came from outside the boat: "Miss Lin, my friends are here!"
