Seeing her accept it, Xu Yan suddenly thought it was pretty good and started to eat it with relish.
He has no image at all. If it weren't for his handsome face and top-notch physique, the scene would have been very bloody.
Chen Zhizhi just glanced at it casually, quietly used her skills, dried the animal skin, and her whole body immediately became extremely light.
She looked at the sea fish again and scraped the scales with her fingernails. They were too hard, so she simply steamed them without salt, just adding some sea water seasoning.
She did it right away. Shen Zhizhi took out the stone pot from the space, then took out the steamer she had woven with bamboo strips a few days ago, and casually plucked a few branches to fill the gaps.
Then he lit a fire and collected some rainwater.
The system was stunned. "Host, how come you have such a complete set of tools for wilderness survival?"
"Didn't you and Bo Yu make this steamer together? Wouldn't he get suspicious if you stole it?"
Chen Zhizhi continued adding firewood as she explained faintly, "In the beast world, it's always better to be prepared. As for this steamer, I didn't steal it. I made a small one out of leftover bamboo strips."
Who would have thought that she would be kidnapped just after washing her face? How resentful.
The system silently gave a thumbs up, feeling deeply moved.
Although it bound to the wrong host, the host was smarter and friendlier than Ye Xiaoyu, and the mission progress was also increasing rapidly, so it was not a loss at all.
Half an hour later, the steamed meat was ready, and a fresh aroma of meat drifted into her nose.
Shen Zhizhi swallowed, looking hesitant.
It was too hot and there was no animal skin to cover it, so I could only wait patiently for a while.
The rain outside had gradually subsided and was now dripping.
When it was almost cool, Shen Zhizhi picked up the fish. She seemed to feel that it was a bit ungraceful to hold it with both hands and eat it directly, so she broke a branch and used it as chopsticks, removed the scales of the fish and ate it with relish.
Xu Yan looked at the fish in his hand, with only the head and tail left, and it suddenly lost its flavor.
Mermaids are born to eat raw food, like the bloody smell when catching prey, and have no concept of cooked food.
But when he saw Shen Zhizhi's appearance, he suddenly lost his appetite, threw away the remaining fish, and swam two steps closer.
The next second, Xu Yan was unable to move. It felt as if a chain was tied around his neck. A burning sensation swept over him. He couldn't help but lean back, his brows furrowed into a frown.
He was very familiar with this feeling. It was the curse of the seabed and the limitation of his true body. He could never go ashore or get close to land.
Xu Yan looked like a lamb on a chopping board, his expression becoming painful.
The angelic face looked very pale.
The system quickly shouted: "Host, please save Xu Yan! He is about to be killed by the curse!"
Chen Zhizhi had just finished eating a whole fat fish. She nodded quickly, licked her fingers, then stood up and ran towards Xu Yan.
Every minute and every second became tense.
Xu Yan's real body is locked at the bottom of the sea. This is his 'second body', which is an important obsession when he turns evil.
If Xu Yan turned evil, or died before his obsession was fulfilled, then no matter how she tried to conquer him, it would be useless.
How could Shen Zhizhi let go of the target that was delivered to her for free?
She swam towards Xu Yan. Although she was mentally prepared, she still shuddered the moment she touched the water.
There is a big temperature difference between day and night.
At this time, she also had her period.
The suffocating and burning sensation on Xu Yan's neck was about to drown him. The fish tail kept twisting and flapping in the sea, showing the uneasiness of the current situation.
He had felt this way more than once, that if he crossed that line, he would be punished.
Sometimes they are trapped, and at the very least they are tortured for several days, dying, or at the very least their lives are almost coming to an end, which is extremely painful.
But he couldn't really die. Such repeated torture made his life worse than death.
And all this is because of the damn prophecy and curse.
Xu Yan could no longer hold on, and the fish's tail went from swinging vigorously to swaying...
The blue pupils turned red for a moment.
The system stared at it in disbelief, and then told Shen Zhizhi what it saw.
"Oh no! Xu Yan's favorability towards you is rapidly decreasing. It has already reached a number of zeros that I can't even count on my hands!"
Shen Zhizhi was annoyed by what she heard and told it to shut up.
At this time, the rain gradually stopped, and lightning exploded overhead.
A few loud bangs illuminated Xu Yan's position for her.
Xu Yan was like a fragile modeling doll, half-broken and floating on the sea, with a look of pain on his face.
She couldn't help but want to hold him in her arms and comfort him.
Because of the pain, Xu Yan had bitten his lip and his body was trembling slightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. You are not alone."
Shen Zhizhi grabbed his hand and pushed him into the sea.
Hearing this, Xu Yan was slightly stunned. The cold fingertips suddenly felt hot, making him dodge and feel uncomfortable for a moment.
He hated hot things, like invisible shackles strangling his neck.
But this temperature was even hotter than the chains, and he felt a strange sensation.
Shen Zhizhi seemed to have noticed Xu Yan's retreat and interlocked her fingers with his.
This way, she thought, she wouldn't run away.
Xu Yan's blank and empty blue eyes flashed, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss, and suddenly gained a ray of light, dispelling the haze.
He began to accept it involuntarily and clenched it.
Shen Zhizhi smiled at him, loosened her grip, and pushed him deeper with all her strength.
At this time, the sea water had already reached her ears and nose, and she could only tilt her head back to breathe.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yan held her hand tightly, causing Shen Zhizhi to fall into the sea defenselessly. She took a gulp of water, which tasted salty and bitter.
Xu Yan had completely recovered. He steadily opened his arms to catch her, his blue eyes surging with unknown emotions.
