Xiangsi's main purpose in coming with Xu Qiaoqiao was still to find the "Sea God" who only existed in legends.
But this sea god is ethereal and elusive; to put it simply, he doesn't exist. Where can you find a sea god?
Along the way, Xu Qiaoqiao listened to Xiangsi's nagging and probably understood this point. She was really persistent. It's a pity that there is no sea god at all; it's just feudal superstition.
Seeing the little girl so happy after coming ashore, Xu Qiaoqiao blew bubbles in the seawater and thought to herself, her tail swaying slightly.
Because Jun Qi's tail took up a significant portion of his body length, and the boat was not even as long as his entire body, about two-fifths of his tail was submerged in seawater.
At this moment, their tails were touching.
A very, very long time ago, probably hundreds of millions of years ago, this place must have been a towering mountain with plains below. Then the sea swept across this land, and slowly, the water level rose higher and higher, and now it is about to swallow the mountain.
But it's only at this stage; it hasn't completely sunk yet.
This island is really small; I estimate it's less than 100 square meters.
Xiangsi went up to take a look, and happily returned to Xu Qiaoqiao, smiling, "Thank you, Xiaolan, this place is great."
Xu Qiaoqiao also sprayed a jet of water at the other party: Hmm, I think it's great too. It's surrounded by water on all sides, and there are plants on it, with a few big trees scattered around.
If you build a house here, it will be an unbeatable ocean view property. The sea here is very calm. She has lived here for more than five years and has never seen a big wave. It is very safe.
And so, longing settled here temporarily.
For the first few days, Xu Qiaoqiao went to the deep sea every day to search for the answer, but gradually, after several days, she still found nothing.
Seeing how hard Xu Qiaoqiao works every day, Xiangsi assumed that she was just worried about the envoy, which was not wrong.
Spring passed, and Xu Qiaoqiao had explored the entire seabed, even stripping away the seaweed-covered rocks, but still found nothing.
Then, Xu Qiaoqiao stopped insisting. These kinds of things aren't something you can just do whenever you want; it might depend on fate.
Jun Qi, as before, lay on the small boat. Xiang Si would come to check on him every day and tell Xu Qiao Qiao about his progress.
As time went on, Junqi's tail became hotter and hotter, but it was only hot to the touch. Xu Qiaoqiao could feel the intense heat every time she touched his tail to his fish tail.
Hey~ that's really strange.
Xu Qiaoqiao looked at Jun Qi, her tail hooked around his tail fin. As the temperature on his tail gradually increased, Xu Qiaoqiao had the illusion that her tail was about to be roasted whenever she touched him.
Junjun, if you keep getting this hot, you'll turn into a cooked fish.
The kind that's juicy and delicious.
Xiangsi seemed to have said that when a mermaid approaches adulthood, its tail becomes hot, hotter and hotter, and at the same time, the tail transforms into legs, accompanied by a burst of intense pain.
According to Xu Qiaoqiao's understanding, it's probably the kind of pain that comes with childbirth.
However, if Junjun had legs, then there aren't any suitable clothes for him down here, so... wouldn't Junjun be exposed?
Xu Qiaoqiao's thoughts drifted to a very peculiar place. She slapped her tail, raising her large head so that it looked as if she were standing up in the sea.
Or... let's find something to cover ourselves up.
She didn't think it mattered, but there was a minor among them.
So let's just cover it up.
With that thought in mind, Xu Qiaoqiao acted quickly, plunging into the seawater. She knew that the seaweed in this area grew particularly lush and wide.
She casually bit into a lump and then pulled them out.
Swimming to the surface, Xu Qiaoqiao painstakingly covered Jun Qi's body with the clump of seaweed, mainly his lower body.
Although both are mammals, blue whales are marine animals, and their limbs are not as flexible as those of land animals, and they are gradually degenerating.
Xu Qiaoqiao put in a tremendous amount of effort to stuff all the seaweed inside, including the tail, pectoral fins, and head, working together to almost capsize the small boat.
After doing all this, Xu Qiaoqiao looked at Jun Qi's lower body, which was covered in green, and blew bubbles with satisfaction. Not bad, not bad, perfect.
Summer has arrived, and temperatures are soaring. The sun beats down on the sea, making it scorching hot. From a distance, the reflective surfaces of the sea are so dazzling that it feels like you're going to go blind just by looking at them.
During this time, Xiangsi built a house on the island with her own strength and made various containers to collect rainwater.
Summers are rainy, with rain falling almost every now and then. In ancient times, air pollution wasn't as severe, and rainwater was relatively clean.
As for Junqi's small boat, Xiangsi would always come over and push it onto the island, then take a large leaf from the side, just to make sure the other didn't get wet in the rain.
Looking at Junjun, who was unconscious but seemed to have been through a lot, Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't help but sigh. She wondered how the other surviving merfolk in front of Junjun had managed to survive in this situation, or if she was making a mountain out of a molehill.
Xu Qiaoqiao tilted her head, several big question marks popping out of her head. It wasn't that she hadn't put Jun Qi in the seawater before.
However, as soon as they came into contact with seawater, Xu Qiaoqiao noticed that the other person's whole body turned red, as if they were ripe.
