"You, are you awake?"

The little mermaid raised her head cautiously, only to realize that Gu Xi had already woken up.

But he soon remembered that Gu Xi couldn't hear him, so he gently pushed the man's chest, signaling him to let go of himself.

His movements were not large, but Gu Xi suddenly let go of his hand as if he had been burned.

Lin Xiaodong's appearance looks a bit miserable, of course mermaids don't need to wear clothes, so from the first time Gu Xi saw him, he has been topless.

But after all the tossing just now, the original white skin was covered with dusty dust, and the lips were bitten by the man, but the little mermaid was not angry at all, just licked her own lips, lowered her head from Getting up on the ground, he pointed at Gu Xi's wound with his finger, signaling that he would change his dressing next time.

Gu Xi said hoarsely, "I'm sorry."

The little mermaid shook her head, and reached out to hug him, indicating that she was fine.

Looking at his sensible and well-behaved appearance, the man's heart seemed to be grabbed by someone.

He barely propped up half of his body, took out a golden medal from the black military uniform he took off, and put it in Lin Xiaodong's palm.

"This is," he gasped for breath, his chest heaved violently for a while, before he finally managed to finish his breath, "This is a very important thing, although I have forgotten it, but my intuition tells me that it is absolutely very important .If I die, you hand him over to whoever comes looking for me, please."

But unexpectedly, the mermaid just glanced at it and directly refused.

"With me here, you won't die." He unfolded his uniform, covered the man, and mouthed to Gu Xi.

The light in the tent was dim, and the starlight in the night sky illuminated the firm expression on the little mermaid's face.

Gu Xi stared at him fixedly for a few seconds, and there seemed to be some deep and obscure emotion brewing in his pitch-black eyes.

After a while, the man lowered his eyes and took the badge back.

"Good," he said.

When it was late at night, Lin Xiaodong slept lightly beside him, and stayed in the tent all night.

But without medicine, it means that Gu Xi can only rely on his own physical fitness to carry it through.

Fortunately, the second half of the night was relatively calm, and there were no major problems for the time being.

It wasn't until dawn that the system reminded him who was drowsy: "Wake up, it's time to pick up the trash."

Hearing this, he shook his heavy eyelids and groaned in pain: "Don't..."

She was a little girl picking mushrooms, and it was her turn to become a little mermaid picking up trash. The treatment was too bad!

Lin Xiaodong embarked on his journey of picking up garbage with a stinky face. The fire yesterday had not been completely extinguished, and it was impossible to expect anyone to help put it out, so he could only hold on for a few minutes while the starship was dumping garbage. Before the flames spread to the gap in the garbage dump, I rummaged through it to find today's food, otherwise I would be hungry.

After a busy day, I managed to find two pieces of black bread and a can of spicy seafood that had expired for half a month.

Canned seafood Gu Xi must not eat now, it will irritate the wound, so Lin Xiaodong cleaned it up on the spot.

He was going to take the remaining two pieces of black bread home, so the patient had to fill his stomach.

Lin Xiaodong walked into the tent, woke Gu Xi up, took out a piece of black bread and handed it to him, and sat beside him, watching him eagerly to eat.

Before Gu Xi took two bites, he heard a rumbling sound from the little mermaid's stomach.

He raised his head speechlessly, and saw Lin Xiaodong's face blushed, and he rubbed his sagging stomach embarrassingly.

Too spicy and a little indigestion.

But the man thought he had given all the food to himself. He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just clenched his jaw and broke the black bread in half.

Handed half to Lin Xiaodong, and kept the other half for himself.

Because he knew that if he gave everything to the other party, he would definitely be rejected.

Sure enough, after a little hesitation, the little mermaid quickly took over.

But he didn't eat, but said while gesticulating: "Can't you eat more? I'll keep it for you, and eat when you're hungry."

"I've already eaten, really!"

He swears, but soon there is another gurgling sound in his stomach.

The black bread was dry and hard, Gu Xi lowered his eyes, and chewed hard, but his fingers holding the bread turned slightly white due to the force.

"Tong," Lin Xiaodong couldn't help asking, "Could it be that he misunderstood something with his expression?"

System: "Obviously, no matter when Gu Xi treats you with filters."

"……Have it?"

Lin Xiaodong really didn't feel it.

Black bread can fill the stomach, but it can't provide nutrition. It's okay to gnaw at ordinary times, but it can't provide any help when you are seriously injured.The specific manifestation is that Gu Xi's face did not look much better after eating, and his lips were cut by the black bread skin.

Seeing the man's lips were stained with bright red, showing a weak and sad color, Lin Xiaodong swallowed unconsciously, and subconsciously leaned forward, sticking out his tongue like a small animal, instinctively wanting to lick the wound for him.

...by the way.

Gu Xi choked for breath.

But different from the previous few days, the man did not push away the little mermaid in his arms this time, but indulged in a gesture of acquiescence, and even reached out his hand to gently touch his head.

The system sighed deeply: "It seems that changing the body will change the IQ and bottom line of the host. It is true."

Lin Xiaodong: "This is your fault."

System: "What?"

Lin Xiaodong took it for granted, "When did I ever have such a thing as a bottom line?"

system:"…………"

shameless!

Because there was no medicine, Gu Xi had a low-grade fever intermittently for several days in a row, and the speed of wound healing was terribly slow.

But the little mermaid didn't mind at all, she still took care of him with all her heart, found food for him, wiped his body for him, and hummed a song to him: "When you recover from your injury, you have to come and do it for me." Pick up trash alive, don't play tricks, do you hear me?"

The man lay pale on the ground, turned his head to look at him, and after a while, gave a soft "hmm".

However, the sky failed as people wished, and three days later, Gu Xi developed a high fever again.

This fever lasted for a whole day and night, looking at the man with a high fever on the bed who couldn't even feed him with water, Lin Xiaodong felt that he couldn't go on like this.

He had to take Gu Xi into Jialan Lake.

Although I don't know the reason, once the mermaids get sick, they will treat them by soaking in the lake water.

This lake contains some kind of magical element, which can purify filth, improve immunity, and even speed up wound healing.

But there is an invisible barrier around Jialan Lake to prevent outsiders from entering, and only humans recognized by the mermaid can pass through this barrier.Lin Xiaodong doesn't know what this "acknowledgment" refers to. Fortunately, there are previous experiences that can be used for reference——

He needs to pull a scale from the tail and let Gu Xi swallow it.

System: "The nerves on the mermaid's tail are very dense, are you sure?"

"Then you can't just watch him die," Lin Xiaodong said, "But, are you sure you can let him pass through the barrier just by doing this?"

"It's written in the information that Lu Xing used to get in like this." The system said, "And after taking the scales, even ordinary humans can talk to mermaids normally."

"It's Lu Xing again."

Lin Xiaodong couldn't help frowning.

It seems that this human crown prince must be one of the key characters in the plot.

In fact, he is also quite strange. It stands to reason that he has taken care of him so meticulously these days, Gu Xi should have sent out the good person card a long time ago, right?But there is not even a fragment, is it because he died early in the original world line and is not a key figure in the plot at all?

Now there is no way to prove it, he can only keep this question in his heart, gritted his teeth, pulled out a scale from the tail, twisted his face and stuffed it into Gu Xi's mouth.

It hurts grandma to death!

The unconscious man swallowed it unconsciously, seeing it, Lin Xiaodong immediately put him on his body, and dragged Gu Xi towards Jialan Lake step by step.

Sure enough, this time he was no longer rejected by the holy lake of the mermaid clan, and after a faint ripple appeared all over his body, he successfully passed the barrier.

Night falls.

Gu Xi, who was lying on the shore, trembled slightly with his fingers, and slowly opened his eyes.

He touched his abdomen first, and his body was intact, as if he recovered overnight.The man blinked, as if he was a little confused about the environment he was in, and looked forward.

But seeing the picture in front of him, Gu Xi even thought he was still dreaming.

Under the starlight, the windless lake is as smooth as a mirror.

This silent and delicate balance was suddenly broken by a silver mermaid that broke out of the water.

The mermaid turned its back to the shore, and with the movement of shaking its head, the long black hair that reached to the waist and back poured down like a waterfall, winding and floating on the water.

Not paying attention to the shore's sight at all, Lin Xiaodong closed his eyes, stretched out his hand and brushed back his wet hair casually.

The young mermaid raised her slender neck, opened her red lips slightly, and exhaled comfortably. Her snow-white back outlined a perfect arc, her long hair swaying, and she could even vaguely see two shallow dimples on her slender waist. .

Dazzling white.

Gu Xi couldn't help thinking that with this waistline, he could just wrap his hands around it.

The thumb pressed against the shallow dimple, just right.

The water droplets splashed and fell into the Jialan Lake, which is as bright as a galaxy at night, causing ripples circle after circle.

System: "Look behind you."

Lin Xiaodong paused.

He turned around and was not surprised to find that Gu Xi had indeed woken up.

"Are you awake? How are you feeling?"

"........."

"Why don't you speak?"

Lin Xiaodong asked several times, but the man just stared straight at his face and didn't answer. The injury on his body should have been healed, but his breathing rate was still abnormally fast.

He tilted his head, puzzled.

This is... another fever?
