Chapter 243 Lizard 13
Min Xi became more clingy. In the past, he would go out hunting when Yu Mo was sleeping, and sometimes Yu Mo would wake up and Min Xi would not come back yet. But since that day, Min Xi became more and more reluctant to leave Yu Mo's side.
The first thing she saw upon waking up was Min Xi's focused gaze, his emerald eyes sparkling and bright. When he met Yu Mo's gaze, he instantly leaped for joy, accompanied by a clear gurgling sound of pleasure. He would then pick up Yu Mo's fingers and lick them, then her cheek...
He became more and more like a human, or perhaps because he wanted to gain Yu Mo's approval, he forced himself to adopt human behavior patterns. He spent more and more time walking upright, and when Yu Mo was around, he rarely touched the ground with all four limbs.
He was wearing a pair of colorful shorts with a hole in the back specifically for the tail. Perhaps he thought that the difference between humans and beasts was whether they wore clothes or not, so he deliberately wore clothes that hindered his movements and wandered around in front of Yu Mo, thinking he looked good. Little did he know that the colorful and patterned beach shorts looked very strange on the lizard man covered with scales.
"Mo!" Min Xi cleaned the bloodstains in front of the cave entrance and washed the ground with mint leaves. The bloody smell was gone, leaving only the fragrance of mint. He held a bunch of brightly colored flowers and squatted in front of Yu Mo. Seeing Yu Mo lowering her head to fiddle with the black box, he pushed the flowers to her nose.
The plants and animals on the deserted island were twice as large as anything Yu Mo had ever seen. Take, for example, the flowers at the cave entrance. Their shapes resembled roses, but their petals were more intricate and fragrant. They were planted here by Min Xi, roots and soil intact. Their vitality was remarkably strong; in just a few days, the large roses had scaled the rocky walls.
Before long, this place will become a whole wall of flowers.
Yu Mo tilted her head back but still couldn't avoid the flowers that almost got stuck in her nose. She took the flowers and put them to the tip of her nose and smelled them. "It smells good and looks beautiful."
Continue tinkering with the satellite phone.
Min Xi squatted quietly beside her, his tail shaking slightly, and his tail accidentally touched Yu Mo's ankle. Min Xi cooed twice, moved his tail away, and touched her ankle again. Min Xi cooed twice again.
The tail is no longer pink, and is covered with a layer of soft scales that are lighter than brown. The scales and the soft tail are extremely disproportionate to Min Xi's body shape. I wonder how long it will take for the tail to return to its original state.
Yu Mo pushed away the tail that was tickling her ankles: "Stop it, I have something to do."
Min Xi pretended not to understand and stopped wrapping his tail around her ankles. He reached out and hooked her skirt. The skirt with lace pattern on the surface instantly unraveled, and the four white threads were hooked by his fingertips. He withdrew his fingers guiltily.
"It's hot, and there's sweat on my face." Min Xi licked the sweat off her neck, then took her arm and dragged her towards her vagina, his tone seeming a bit excited: "Go back inside!"
Yu Mo glanced at him. It was very hot and a layer of sweat appeared on her back, but she would rather stay outside because it would not be cooler inside than outside, and she might even sweat more.
Recently Min Xi has been keen on dragging her into the cave.
She looked at Min Xi's innocent and naive face, but her voice made a purring sound similar to courtship, with a high pitch and a hint of urgency.
At this moment, there was a crackling sound from the other end of the phone, followed by a woman's voice: "...Yu Mo, is that you?"
"It's me!" Yu Mo was instantly excited.
"The location shows that you are on an island somewhere. Are you safe now?"
Yu Mo briefly described the situation on the island, then asked about the situation at the research institute. When she heard that the rescue team was heading towards the located island, the haze that had been hanging over her head for the past few days finally dissipated. "Please be careful. I'll wait for the rescue to arrive."
She completely forgot that Min Xi was beside her. At first, Min Xi just stared at the black box in confusion, but later he saw that she was only looking at the black box intently. The voice coming from there was obviously from her fellow tribesmen. For some reason, he felt uneasy.
So he made a sharp whimper, then picked up Yu Mo and quickly returned to the cave.
"...Yu Mo, what's that noise over there? Are you in danger?"
Yu Mo: "It's okay."
Her limbs were tightly tucked into Min Xi's arms. She held the phone tightly to prevent it from falling out. She was about to speak to stop Min Xi's behavior, but when she thought of the person on the other side, her heart trembled and the words that came out of her mouth became, "Senior Sister, it was just an unusually sized rat. I managed to dodge it."
There was a rustling sound over there until the senior sister's voice came again: "...A new species has been discovered nearby. Have you found anything over there?"
Min Xi hugged her and rubbed the places where she was sweating with the soft scales on his face. It was sticky. Although the scales were cool and smooth, the temperature was not very low. The scales felt a little warm, like stones that were hot in the sun. Yu Mo was sweating all over in his arms.
But her voice was calm. She said, "I've seen it before... It has a strong sense of territory, is very similar to a lizard, and is very agile. The islanders here worship it as some kind of god. When they captured people for sacrifice, I was among them. I luckily escaped..."
Truth and falsehood are the hardest to be doubted. After a moment of silence on the phone, he suddenly smiled with relief: "I'm so glad you're okay. The rescue team will probably arrive tomorrow."
Yu Mo asked, "What's the approximate distance? I have a bamboo boat here. If the distance is sufficient, there's no need to waste rescue manpower. There are people who need rescue more than me."
The senior sister explained the distance and direction between the two islands. Yu Mo seemed to be lost in thought, and then she said, "Everyone is in a bad mood after something like this happened. The teacher has been ill in bed recently, and he's looking forward to your return to comfort him. We are all students taught by the teacher personally, and it's a blessing to be able to contact you. Some people have already..."
Yu Mo was also in a bad mood. Noticing her low mood, Min Xi took the black box and made a gesture to throw it away. Yu Mo just said "no" and swallowed the rest of the words.
She snatched the phone back and wanted to put it back under the bed, but after thinking about it, she put the phone in the recess of the stone wall outside the cave. Just after she finished the action, Min Xi carried her back to the cave, as if she would be snatched away if she was a step later.
Min Xi began to make humming sounds, and as he licked her, she looked like a puppy wagging its tail and begging for mercy. Yu Mo felt mixed emotions.
He touched the tail at her feet: "Min Xi..."
It is very likely that Min Xi's race has appeared near the research base, and Teacher Li's main research direction is new species. In recent years, Yu Mo has followed the teacher's team to travel all over the deserted mountains and islands in order to verify new species that appeared many years ago but have not been recorded or studied.
Out of selfishness, she didn't want Min Xi to be discovered. The consequence of being discovered would be that she would be locked up in the laboratory for research forever. She looked at the green eyes that were still full of passion in the darkness. Min Xi purred in a soothing manner, as if he was coaxing her to sleep.
Min Xi, who is so attached to her, will be a very suitable experimental subject. Even if it is to repay his kindness these days, she can't reveal his whereabouts. If she knew the arrival of the rescue team at the beginning, she would only be happy, but now she is mixed with other emotions.
Yu Mo sighed, and Min Xi opened his eyes immediately. "Mo, Mo..." He touched her forehead gently. He knew that her forehead would feel hot when she was sick, but hers was not hot. He touched her stomach. The barbecue she had eaten in the evening had not been fully digested, and her stomach was still a little bloated. He looked confused and asked in an unfamiliar tone: "Where, do you feel uncomfortable?"
Yu Mo said, "It's okay."
Min Xi held her close to him. She didn't resist, leaning against his chest. The scales that had once made her resist fear were now filled with dependence and longing. Perhaps because she knew they would soon say goodbye, she didn't suppress the emotions in her heart, letting them flow and spread.
Her lips gently pressed against the scales of her chest, which rose and fell with the beating of her heart. Min Xi made a pleasant sound in her ear. The corners of Yu Mo's lips also curled up, and she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
…
The second day.
Min Xi, who was supposed to go out hunting, did not leave. He lay on his side beside Yu Mo, staring at her closely. When she opened her eyes, he purred, then began to kiss her lips with a flattering look.
Yu Mo's consciousness was in a daze, and her mouth opened inadvertently. Min Xi slid in skillfully, like a nimble fish, the barbs on the surface of his tongue numbing her. When he left, Yu Mo was stuffed into Min Xi's arms.
She wiped the traces from the corners of her mouth, her face flushed, but she quickly regained her composure. She clutched her stomach and cried out, "I want to eat roasted pig." She pointed to her stomach and showed him, "I'm very hungry, Min Xi, can you go hunting?"
Wild boars are larger and more agile than domestic pigs, so it takes Min Xi a longer time to catch them. Moreover, the place where the wild boars appear is far away from the cave, so it takes at least half a day to go back and forth.
Min Xi lowered his head and took out the wild fruit she had hidden in her cave. He peeled the skin and stuffed the juicy flesh into her mouth. "It's sweet, Mo likes it." He put his arm around her waist with no intention of letting go.
Yu Mo spit out the fruit pulp that she had stuffed into her mouth, "I want to eat barbecue, Min Xi, I don't want to eat fruit, I want to eat meat!"
So Min Xi carried her to the woods and finally caught a pheasant, plucked its feathers and bled it, and roasted it over the fire. Yu Mo ate absentmindedly, and as the sun was about to rise to the zenith, her worries grew stronger and stronger.
On the one hand, she feared she would be trapped here forever, missing the rescue team. On the other, she worried Min Xi would be discovered and taken back to the institute. These two worries tore at her mind as she perfunctorily stuffed the barbecue into her mouth. The skin of the chicken thigh had cooled, but the meat inside was still steaming, burning her lips and causing blisters.
Min Xi grumbled a few times in a quick, accusing tone. He picked up Yu Mo, checked the condition of her mouth, and then licked it carefully. His saliva effectively relieved the pain and itchiness in her mouth.
When he tried to pull out, Yu Mo held on tightly. Min Xi touched her belly, and Yu Mo took his hand away, hugged his neck, and gently stroked the rough scales with her palm. Min Xi couldn't help but let out a high-pitched cry, and then hugged Yu Mo back to the cave.
He placed her on the stone bed. He then lay on top of her, calling her name affectionately: "Mo, Mo..."
Yu Mo smiled in response. Min Xi's body was strong, sturdy and plump, even the scales couldn't hide it. He licked her sweat clean. Yu Mo felt itchy and inadvertently let out a crisp laugh. Min Xi's tail wagged back and forth, occasionally touching her fingers, then wrapped around her legs and slid back and forth.
She touched Min Xi's flesh. When he was excited, his scales would open and close. Following the scales, she could feel the flesh connected to him. There were blood vessels hidden inside, and it was very warm. Min Xi seemed to like her touch very much, and he buried his head in her shoulder and cried out.
When Min Xi made a high and joyful sound, Yu Mo suppressed the dizziness brought by the ecstasy, took out the hidden anesthetic, and when he was off guard, she inserted the needle into his flesh along his scales.
Min Xi was very big and all the anesthetic in the syringe was used up. He felt pain, raised his eyes and gurgled. Bi Tong smiled and leaned close to her lips to kiss her. He probably thought Yu Mo was playing with him, so he didn't care.
"Mo, it's itchy!" He chuckled and buried himself in her arms, his tail swinging back and forth behind him, then his speed became slower and slower. His tone finally became panic-stricken, and his eyelids drooped heavily. "Mo! Mo!" He could only call her name, with confusion in his eyes.
He tried to pick up Yu Mo and hide her in the cave. Yu Mo was held in his arms, staring into his eyes that looked like precious gems, and her heart seemed to be pierced by the needle of anesthetic, numb and painful.
She suspected Min Xi had thought he was in danger and was trying to hide her. Even when he felt her pierce him, he didn't doubt that his discomfort was due to her. Yu Mo felt her cheeks wet, as if it had rained. But in the cave, even if it rained, how could she possibly get wet? Especially since it was a sunny day outside.
She slowly opened her lips, but before she could say anything, Min Xi fell to the ground, holding her in his arms, unharmed. Min Xi hit the edge of the stone bed hard, and she heard the clanging sound of scales and hard stone.
She rolled out of Min Xi's arms. Min Xi was lying on his side, facing her, his lips opening and closing as if he wanted to call her name. Yu Mo finished her unfinished words: "Min Xi, I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself..."
She leaned forward and touched his face: "Don't leave the forest, don't be discovered by humans... and don't look for me..."
Min Xi's eyes instantly turned red, and his throat let out a heavy gasp of death. He wanted to pounce on his little female, hold her in his arms, and make sure she could never leave him!
But he could only watch, without any strength at all.
