Chapter 3 The Mermaid Wants to Chat

There were only Shen Dong and Uncle Chen on the island all year round. Shen Dong was very sensitive to the voices of people other than Uncle Chen. He could recognize the voice behind him without any thought.

This is the bare-bottomed man who came and went without a trace last night.

I don't know if it's because his previously unreliable association met this amazing coincidence now, Shen Dong felt like he was struck by lightning and wanted to fall to the ground without moving his head, he didn't even want to turn his head.

"Hey!" The man called out again behind him, "I'm calling you!"

Shen Dong endured the unexplainable feeling in his heart, and slowly turned around, and sure enough, he saw the person from yesterday standing on the reef looking at him. Although he was still naked, he didn't know where his psychological quality came from. He was naked and still looking at him. Stand quite calm.

Because they were facing each other, and it was broad daylight, Shen Dong couldn't hold back. He looked up and down the man in front of him, and even wandered his eyes for a while to glance at the man's lower body. He was indeed a genuine man. , looks young, probably a few years younger than himself.

"Huh?" Shen Dong responded, he really didn't know what to say, he could only wait and see what this person had to say.

But the man didn't speak any more, he stood on the rock and stared at Shen Dong.

Shen Dong felt a little creepy when he saw him, and he began to wonder if it was time to go back to the house and take the unused shotgun hidden all the time to seek a sense of security.

"...Let me think about it." The man finally said a word.

It would be better not to say it!

Shen Dong didn't hesitate any longer, took two steps back, turned around and strode towards his room.

"Wait," the man jumped onto the shore and trotted after him, "Wait, what's your name?"

Shen Dong suppressed the impulse in his heart to shake this person's shoulders for a few minutes and then ask him what's wrong with you, but he didn't make a sound, and continued to walk with big strides.

"My name is Cao Mu." The man said, reaching out to touch Shen Dong's arm.

Cao Mu?Shen Dong jumped away reflexively, he really didn't understand what was going on with this man, who he was, where he came from, and what he was going to do.

After dodging, the man came after him and pulled his waistband: "What's your name?"

"Take it, take it away." Shen Dong was startled, and slapped him on the arm with his backhand.

"Why are you so anxious to ask about my name? If you don't want to say it or not," the man didn't seem to understand why Shen Dong reacted, and he continued to follow behind him while rubbing his arms. "Then remember my name, Cao Cao." Mu, don't forget."

These words made Shen Dong very dazed, and couldn't help but look back at him.

"Because..." He smiled a little embarrassedly, "I often forget things, my name, what I am going to do, I always forget, and I have to think hard to remember."

Shen Dong didn't speak any more, just kept his head buried in his own way, and a person who didn't think it was weird to chat with others in the naked body followed behind him, which already made him draw this Cao Mu out of the range of miracles appearing and meeting mermaids, and directly Put him in the category of neuropathy.

What made Shen Dong unbearable was that until he was about to open the door and enter the house, the man named Cao Mu still followed behind him every step of the way.

"What the hell are you going to do, why?" Shen Dong looked back at him, blocking the door with his body.

"Aren't you going in?" Cao Mu smiled, "Is there any water? I want to drink water."

Shen Dong didn't speak, and stared at him for a long time. This person was actually quite pleasing to the eye, and his smile was very bright. The current state was as if the two of them were friends who had known each other for a long time, and he couldn't see any bad intentions.

Drink water?

Shen Dong hesitated for a long time, finally pushed the door open and entered the room, Cao Mu naturally followed behind him and also walked in.

"The room is really small." Cao Mu stood in the room, looked around and gave an evaluation.

This room is small, with a bed, a cabinet, and a table. Once these three pieces of furniture are placed, there is basically nothing to spare.

Shen Dong didn't answer his words, went directly to the table, took the kettle, poured a glass of water into his own cup, and handed it to Cao Mu.

Cao Mu took it and drank it all in one breath, and wiped his mouth: "Is there any more?"

Shen Dong didn't say a word, poured him another glass, watched him drink it up in one gulp, went to open the door, pointed outside: "Let's go."

"I'll stay for a while," Cao Mu looked at him, didn't intend to leave, and sat directly on the edge of his bed, "Let's chat, can you say ten sentences a day? You can't do it if you don't talk for too long. You see you are all tied up..."

Shen Dong didn't wait for him to finish this sentence, he picked up a small chair by the door and smashed it over, stuttering your uncle, there's no end!

"Ouch!" The chair hit Cao Mu's leg, and he yelled and jumped up, rubbing his legs while running outside the house, "If you don't talk, don't talk, why do you always hit people?"

Seeing Cao Mu running out of the door, Shen Dong slammed the door and locked it from the inside.

baffling!

He took the dial and looked at the time, planning to sleep for two hours before going to the lighthouse to see it. After a tossing all night yesterday, his eyes are a little dry now.

Lying on the bed for a long time, Shen Dong didn't fall asleep. Although he was very sleepy, what happened to this person named Cao Mu kept going back and forth in his mind.

"Hey!" Shen Dong sat up, jumped out of bed and opened the door, he wanted to see where the man went.

Before he stepped out of the door, he saw Cao Mu squatting against the wall outside the house.

"You..." He stared at Cao Mu for a long time without saying a word.

"Going out?" Cao Mu stood up, still smiling, "Where are you going? Let's go together?"

Shen Dong felt that he suddenly started to have a headache, and his brain was jumping so that his temples twitched. He looked at Cao Mu, and it seemed that this person would not let him go in a short time.

He turned around and went back to the house, took a set of his own clothes from the cabinet and threw them on Cao Mu: "Put on, put on."

"No need," Cao Mu took the clothes and looked at them, "It will get wet after a while, I don't need to..."

"Put it on!" Shen Dong couldn't help roaring, resisting the urge to raise his hand to whip him.

"Wear it, wear it," Cao Mu quickly took the clothes and put them on himself, and took two steps back while putting them on, "Stop beating people."

After Cao Mu put on his clothes, Shen Dong heaved a sigh of relief. Apart from Uncle Chen, he had hardly seen anyone in these years, let alone a naked person. He had always felt a lot of pressure before.

The clothes were very old. Shen Dong hadn't bought any clothes since he went to the island. Uncle Chen had brought him a few, and now the clothes were almost ruined. Water gray.

Shen Dong leaned against the door frame and looked at Cao Mu. After putting on his clothes, the man looked a lot more comfortable, and the anger that had been lingering in his heart for no reason also subsided a lot.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Dong opened his mouth: "You...from, from, where...from?"

"Hai Li." Cao Mu replied without thinking, squatting beside him and leaning against the wall, looking quite at ease.

Shen Dong was stunned, he had already cleared the outrageous conjectures about the mermaid from his mind, when he heard Cao Mu's words suddenly, he couldn't react for a while: "Ah?"

"Just..." Cao Mu scratched his hair, "How should I put it, it's just in the sea, just swim up and come up."

"Oh." Shen Dong let out his breath slowly, did he swim here, did he swim here from the village on the shore?The physical strength is a bit unearthly.

"Don't you see me every day?" Cao Mu answered casually.

These words made Shen Dong's whole body stiff, the hand on the door frame almost broke the wood, he stared at Cao Mu: "God...God?"

"Well," Cao Mu nodded, pointing to the beach, "I throw me into the water every day, and I can't remember who threw it, and now I finally remember it, and I can't forget... Hey, what's your name? name?"

Shen Dong felt that his eyes were blurred, and there were colorful light spots dancing in the blur.

What is this!

He... throws Cao Mu into the water every day?He obviously threw...that clownfish...

"What's your name?" Cao Mu asked again persistently.

"Shen Dong." Shen Dong replied unconsciously.

"Well, Shen Dong, I'll ask you again next time, please answer me too, I might forget, I don't have a good memory," Cao Mu moved closer to him, "What's wrong with you? Not feeling well?"

"You," Shen Dong leaned against the door frame, feeling that his legs were a little weak. He raised his hand and pushed Cao Mu back. When he pressed his hand to Cao Mu's chest, he could still feel the warmth. Man, he took a breath, tried to control his emotions, and asked the words that he thought he had taken the wrong medicine, "Yes, is it fish?"

"Fish?" Cao Mu probably saw the uneasy expression on Shen Dong's face, he hesitated for a long time, and then nodded slightly, "That's right."

As soon as this sentence was finished, Shen Dong had already flashed into the room from his eyes, and then the door was closed against his face with a "bang".

"Hello!" Cao Mu was startled, and patted on the door, "Shen Dong! Is your name Shen Dong? You open the door, I didn't mean to scare you!"

There was no sound in the door. Cao Mu pushed the door, but it couldn't be opened. He patted it twice again: "I'm sorry, I didn't... scare you, I just wanted to chat with someone..."

At the end of the conversation, Cao Mu's voice lowered. He put his ear to the door and listened for a while, sighed, and walked back slowly: "Then I'm going, let's go! The clothes will be returned to you tomorrow, Just leave it at your door."

Shen Dong supported the door with his arms, and watched Cao Mu's figure walking towards the reef from the crack of the door. He didn't let out a long breath until he couldn't see him at all, then pressed his forehead against the door.

After a few minutes, he calmed down and lay back on the bed, staring at the beams with his arms under his head in a daze.

After being stunned for a while, I started to laugh at my nervous performance before, mermaid?Did Cao Mu say that he was a fish or a fish?

"People in their twenties actually believe this," Shen Dong turned over and faced the wall, "What a treat."

If there is no accident, this Cao Mu should have some brain problems, he can't remember things, maybe he is hiding somewhere and saw that he has thrown fish into the sea for the past few days, so he said that he is a fish... The only thing that makes Shen Dong feel a little What I can't figure out is how this person got on the island and where he plans to go now.

This island is not close to the land, and it takes an hour for a big boat to get there. It is really impossible for a person to swim here like this.

Thinking of this, Shen Dong sat up from the bed again, got off the bed, put on his shoes and walked out of the room.

I can't sleep anymore!

There was no sign of Cao Mu outside, so Shen Dong walked towards the rock along the route he left.

Seeing two chickens on the road, Shen Dong stopped, wanting to grab one and pinch it to see how much meat it has, but he hesitated for a while and finally didn't move. With the excellent Lingbo microsteps on his body, he couldn't catch them without a net.

When the chicken saw him coming, it fluttered and clucked away.

Shen Dong withdrew his gaze from staring at the chicken, and when he was about to walk forward, he saw a small bright spot flickering on a stone at his feet. It seemed that something reflected the sunlight, but it didn't flicker when he looked again. up.

He squatted down curiously, and leaned in front of the stone with his hands on the ground.

A fish scale.

Translucent pale orange.

Shen Dong pinched this small fish scale with his fingers and placed it in front of his eyes.

It was a pale orange indeed, but on a fish it would be much darker, a brilliant bright orange.

Scales of a clownfish.

"I can't..." Shen Dong squatted and didn't move. He didn't know how to analyze this matter. Let alone whether some seabird brought up a clown fish to eat. Well, there must be other wreckage nearby.

Shen Dong put the scales back on the stone, stood up and quickened his pace towards the reef.

Before he reached the beach, he saw a person sitting on the rock in the sea.

It was Cao Mu, who was sitting facing the sea, his legs dangling gently in the sea water, and looking into the distance with his face facing the endless sea.

Shen Dong stopped and stood behind Cao Mu, not knowing whether he should go to talk to Cao Mu and ask him about his background or turn around and go back to the house.

In the end he decided to figure it out, because if he didn't go on guessing like this, he could screw himself up.

He coughed lightly behind Cao Mu.

Cao Mu, who had been sitting still, turned his head suddenly, and when he saw it was him, a smile appeared on his face: "Shen..."

"East." Shen Dong walked to the shore, found a rock and sat down.

"Yes, Shen Dong," Cao Mu nodded happily, "Do you still remember my name?"

"Cao, Cao Mu." Shen Dong replied.

"Yeah, that's right," Cao Mu was even happier, and pulled his legs back from the sea, as if he wanted to go ashore, but he sat back on the reef after a pause, "Why did you come here, come to see your corals Is it?"

"No." Shen Dong narrowed his eyes, Cao Mu actually knew that he often came to see the coral?

"Is that for me?"

"Ah."

"wanna chat?"

"it is good."

Shen Dong didn't know how to speak, and planned to chat with Cao Mu first, but after waiting for a long time, Cao Mu just looked at him and didn't speak.

"You don't, no, it's not... you want to talk..." Shen Dong felt that letting himself chat with people was a real pain.

"Yeah," Cao Mu smiled again, rubbing his nose embarrassedly, "but I forgot what I wanted to say just now."

Shen Dong sighed, he was tossing back and forth between the options of whether this person is a psychopath or a mermaid, and he almost didn't have the energy to be afraid or surprised.

"You just, just now, said, said that you are... are..."

"What is it?" Cao Mu looked at him curiously.

"Fish." Shen Dong took a breath. He originally wanted to say clown fish, but when he could say a word, he usually said a word to avoid stuttering.

"Ah, yes, yes," Cao Mu nodded, and added carefully, "Did it scare you?"

"No." Shen Dong felt that Cao Mu, who looked no different from ordinary people, was more likely to be mentally ill.

"That's good. When you closed the door, I thought I scared you or made you angry." Cao Mu stood up, jumped from the rock to Shen Dong and sat down next to him. "At first I thought you Like me, you can spend a long time in the ocean looking at coral."

"Where are you, where are you looking, looking at me?" Shen Dong turned his face to look at him.

"In the water, next to the coral, swimming around," Cao Mu smiled and waved his hand, "You probably won't notice me, there are a lot of clownfish around the coral."

Shen Dong choked on his own saliva, and coughed for a long time until his lungs were twisted before he stopped.

"Actually..." Cao Mu patted him lightly on the back a few times, his tone suddenly lost the excitement before, and became a little lonely, "You don't believe me, right, what I said."

"Huh?" Shen Dong was stunned, it turned out that Cao Mu knew that few people would believe such words.

"Grandpa said don't tell others about this casually," Cao Mu turned his head and looked at the sea in the distance, "but I think you should be a good person, you are very good to corals, you plant them so carefully, and you will replant the broken ones , and protect those birds, even though you eat fish..."

Shen Dong wanted to cough at first, but after hearing Cao Mu's words, he forgot about it in an instant, and gradually began to feel a little cold in his palms.Only Uncle Chen knew about his coral planting. When he went to the sea to serve the coral, he never found anyone around him. In other words, he never saw anyone else on the island except egg-stealers and bird-catchers.

Although he stutters, he is not slow. If there is someone who is free to squat on the shore to watch him make coral or watch him in the water, he cannot fail to notice...

"You..." Shen Dong stared at Cao Mu, his mind was pounding.

"I'm leaving, the sun is warming up, I can't stay on the shore for too long," Cao Mu suddenly stood up and began to undress, "Thank you for your clothes, you are the first person who asked me to get dressed."

"Cao..." Shen Dong hurriedly stood up as well, Cao Mu had already taken off his pants, and it was a bit awkward for him to turn his head and face him if he didn't stand up again.

"Cao Mu." Cao Mu smiled at him, before he could speak again, he suddenly kicked his legs and jumped towards the surface of the sea.

The moment Shen Dong saw him jumping up, he immediately understood why he didn't fall on the rock when he jumped out of the window last night.

Shen Dong was stunned by Cao Mu's amazing jumping and explosive power and the long arc he drew in the air when he jumped up.

It's really not... people!

"Cao Mu!" When Shen Dong came back to his senses and shouted, Cao Mu had already jumped into the sea.

Shen Dong didn't think much, and jumped into the sea, he couldn't jump to the place where Cao Mu entered the water, but he could see there.

In front were countless bubbles, rolling and floating towards the water surface, like a cluster of white clouds in the water, Shen Dong quickly swam towards the bubbles.

Although he finds it unbelievable, no one can create so many bubbles by jumping into the sea. At this moment, he can't care about being surprised. He just wants to catch up. Even if Cao Mu is a turtle, he doesn't care. He just wants to Find out the real reason for this abnormal situation.

Shen Dong swam very fast, but when he reached the location of the bubbles, the bubbles had almost floated towards the surface of the water.

Did not see Cao Mu.

If Cao Mu had just swam away, in such a clear sea where he could see the fine sand on the bottom of the sea, he would have to be at the speed of a bullet to disappear from Shen Dong's sight in such a short period of time.

hell!Shen Dong cursed in his heart.

The clothes on his body were in the way, Shen Dong took off his shirt in the water, and when he was about to take off his pants, a bright color flashed among the sporadic bubbles floating upwards.

A clownfish slowly swam over from directly in front of him, wagging its tail.
