All the sounds under the ocean seemed very faint, and the blocked ears felt faintly swollen under the soaking water, and the sunlight pierced the sea above, like a glimmer of light from another world. The shimmer illuminates the dark world, and at the same time radiates countless faint dusty plankton matter in the seawater.

A brown-black crab's claws poked out of the sand beside him, bringing up a faint cloud of turbid dust, and then the hermit crab-like little crab circled horizontally in front of Lan Li, and finally crawled into his trouser leg.

At this time, Lan Lipan sat at the root of an ocean reef, his eyes quietly staring at the deep and hazy sea world in front of him, his face was reflected in the faint light without any expression, and his hair was fluttering upwards like a clump of jet-black seaweed.

Countless cold currents continued to penetrate into his body from all directions, and the slightest coldness continued to worsen, but he could not feel any pain and depression caused by lack of oxygen, and there was also a faint cold invasion in his eyes, so the sourness brought by the sea water was constantly weakened.

But Lan Li was already familiar with all this, so he didn't pay much attention to the changes in his body, but stared at the hazy and unclear area in the depths of the sea in front of him, his face did not show the slightest emotion, but he had been expecting something in his heart.

It didn't take long for the change to happen.

A silver-black eel suddenly broke through the hazy sea and rushed towards Lan Li from the depths of darkness, but when it reached Lan Li's body, it changed its previous irritability and turned into a slow circle around him, approaching from time to time to touch his naked upper body with its cold mouth.

Lan Li ignored the little loach-like fish, still staring ahead, waiting for a target to appear.

After a while, another eel with brown and black stripes sprang out again, and began to wander around Lan Li just like the one before it.

This was followed by more fish.

Brown spotted fat cod, flattened silver-scaled pomfret fish, ugly-looking barracuda, dense small herring......

At first, the fish in the underwater world continued to attack in a scattered manner, but as time passed, more and more fish came in droves, and finally completely obscured the darkness around Lan Li.

Only then did he grab a fat salmon and kick the ground with both legs, bringing up a cloud of muddy sand and dust and running upwards.

The surrounding schools of fish were scattered in a hurry, and then they gathered around the figure's legs like a black tornado, and only then did they reluctantly disperse in all directions until the other party was out of the sea.

Lan Li, who climbed onto the rocks on the shore, exhaled a cool breath, and then bent down to pick up the linen shirt on the reef and put it on his body, the hot clothes made him feel warm and comfortable, but then he frowned, lowered his head and shook off his trouser legs, so the little crab was thrown out by him.

The silver salmon in his hand was writhing uncomfortably out of the sea at this time, but it was not intense, and it didn't seem to have any idea of resisting Lan Li.

"I'm embarrassed to eat you like this."

He muttered, looked at the sea beside him, glanced thoughtfully at the clouds gathering in all directions overhead, and then carried the obedient fish in the direction of the forest at the end of the beach.

The Homing Bait trait that was awarded not long ago is interesting, as it allows Lan Li to attract large swarms of fish in the seawater, as if he had become a potent bait himself.

This makes it easy for him to dive and catch fish, and he can even pick and choose, as if he is visiting a fish market......

At this time, Lan Li was wearing a brown and yellow linen short-sleeved shirt, and pants of the same color and material on the lower body, and her bare feet stepped on the pebbles in front of the beach, leaving wet footprints.

As you step into a palm grove of fallen leaves, you can hear the sounds of sneaky rats, silent snakes, buzzing beetles, and hard, fat-looking coconut crabs lying on their chelicerae on their stomachs.

A triangular shed made of leaves and branches was built at the edge of the woods, near the water source. There were palm trees all around, and a low rock not far away was drying a washed red dress and two brown-black leather armor jackets, and a black-backed silver gull was squatting on top of Lan Li's one, constantly pecking at the soft substance on the side of the leather armor with its beak.

Seeing this, Lan Li hurriedly stepped forward to catch up, and the birds fled in a panic, and there was a sound of laughter behind him.

Turning her head to see that Rhaenys, who was about the same dress as him, was squatting in the open space in front of the leaf shed to make a fire and boil water, seeing Lan Li looking at her, she pretended to be displeased and said, "What are you doing with it?" I'm betting it's not going to on your clothes. ”

"Bet with yourself? You're bored. Lan Li rolled her eyes, approached and handed the fish in her hand to the other party.

"Strange, how do you catch salmon every day? Is there a school of salmon around here? ”

After that, she asked in a puzzled manner, but she didn't want to get out of Lan Li's hand, and the originally honest fish began to struggle hard.

Caught off guard, Rhaenys didn't grasp it firmly and let it fall directly to the place, so she sighed, hurriedly squatted down to remedy, and pinched the fish body tightly, without any sound, but the slender hand was mixed with a huge force, so the fish's eyes bulged, and the struggle became very weak.

All this made Lan Li's eyelids jump. But the other party stood up as if no one was right, and threw the fish in his hand into the pot of shells that had already boiled on the side, not disliking the dust and leaves on the fish at all.

……

It was their twenty-fifth day on the island.

Since Rhaenys cried a while ago, she has become docile, or rather hardworking, and has not mentioned the past anymore, nor has she emitted negative emotions.

Except for the sometimes melancholy sitting on the beach in a daze, she really seems to have picked up her spirits, and not only has she begun to take the initiative to share all kinds of tedious tasks, but now she is even thinking about cooking fish soup by herself.

The large seashells were charred black by flames, and the boiling water in them kept foaming at the edges, and as the fish stopped struggling, it didn't take long for a special smell to diffuse.

That obviously won't be a good taste, Lan Li, who was sharpening the branch with a dagger, suddenly remembered that the other party didn't scrape the scales and process the fish at all, but just threw the fish into it......

However, seeing this person squatting in front of the fire with an excited appearance, he was not embarrassed to remind him.

So it was obvious that this time the fish soup could not be drunk.

The hot boiled fish was finally split in two by the dagger, and looking at the body of the fish with bursts of hot air rising from the large shell, Lan Li felt that his picky eater seemed to have committed it again......

Looking up at the other side of the fire, the woman sitting on the stump looked quite satisfied with her work, and was now cutting off a piece of fish with a dagger and chewing it in her mouth.

So he didn't think much about it, sighed, turned the dagger in his hand and began to cut it carefully.

Just cutting and cutting, he suddenly felt a little quiet around him, and couldn't help but look up, only to find that the woman opposite had already put down the food at this time, sitting there with her chin in her hand, and staring at herself with a pair of purple eyes without blinking.

"What's wrong with you?" Lan Li asked.

Looking at him quietly, Rhaenys didn't answer for a long time, but when Lan Li was about to ignore it, she suddenly spoke: "You know, when I was a child, I thought about what would happen if I wasn't a Targaryen." ”

Lan Li raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but the other party's words did not stop.

"If I'm from Westeros, then I'm probably born into a family of lords, so I can't escape the fate of getting married, and if I'm lucky, I'll marry someone my age, and if I'm unlucky, I'll only be a bad old man. And if it was a small lord family, maybe my father would be too poor to pay the dowry, and then I would be sent to be a nun, or lowered my status to marry some lucky loyal knight. Being a nun is not bad, but it will be boring. ”

"If a peasant girl is terrible, she will probably be married to a man with a foul mouth, who may be a drunkard, or a wreck. I could also be targeted by a lord and give birth to a bunch of illegitimate children, whether I want it or not. ”

As she spoke, seeing that Lan Li's expression seemed to be very weird, she couldn't help glaring at the other party.

"Look at what? I'm sure I'm going to be targeted, and the lords of Westeros have always been savage. They still have such terrible first night rights...... Do you know how I felt when I first heard about this? ”

"I don't know, but I can imagine it." Lan Li shrugged.

"It's not actually the worst." Rhaenys said: "There are slaves everywhere outside of Westeros, you can beat and scold, and if you are killed, no one will make the decision for you." You're going to be pretty, and when you're a few years old, you're going to be sent to train as a slave girl and learn some nonsense. If I had been born there, I might as well have died sooner. ”

"So you're in luck." Lan Li chimed in: "As a Targaryen, only you have the share of enslaving others, and who dares to enslave you." ”

"Yes, the Targaryen proverb is blood and fire." She muttered, and suddenly sighed, "But if there is no dragon, whose blood will be shed?" Whose home will it burn? ”

Lan Li, who was about to be replaced by a royal child, actually had a lot to say about this, but he didn't say anything - the one in front of him was just a feeling after losing the dragon.

The atmosphere fell silent for a while, Lan Li didn't speak, and the other party's eyes staring at the fire were also a little dazed, until the flames became a little weaker, and she looked at Lan Li again.

"Am I pretty?" She asked.

The silver-blonde broken hair that was originally cut short has grown to the ear-level position at this time, the face is delicate and neat, the purple eyes are flowing, and a mood that seems to be happy and sad makes her look a little weak, but there is a unique style.

This was actually an obvious thing, so Lan Li nodded.

The corners of the other party's mouth were hooked when he saw this.

"And what is your impression of me? Feel? ”

"I don't feel like you're thirty-five at all." Lan Li's words made the other party squint, but then he smiled.

"It's like a fifteen-year-old girl."

So she couldn't help but say: "You know, I suspected that you didn't like women at first, but later I found out that you weren't unresponsive, but just more polite and educated...... Not at all like those stinky men in Westeros. ”

"So now it's another temptation?" Lan Li felt that the other party was teasing herself.

"You can think of it that way." Rhaenys looked intently at the black-haired man opposite her with her chin on her chin and said slowly, "I'm actually ready." If we've been stuck here, is there anything else possible? You're a nice man, knowledgeable, polite, and always deceitful, but I can sense that you really want to help me. Most importantly, I don't hate you yet. ”

When she spoke, her eyes were inexplicable, like joy and sadness, relieved, but there was also a trace of imperceptible depression and decadence.

Lan Li didn't say anything after hearing the sound, and after quietly glancing at the other party for a few times, he put down the shell saucer in his hand, got up and walked outside the forest.

"I'll go get another fish, and I won't be able to eat it."

Rhaenys was stunned when she saw this, and then hurriedly shouted: "Then you come back early, I see that the weather is not very good." ”

Lan Li waved his hand without looking back, looking up as he walked.

In the sky outside the shade of the trees, the clouds had become gloomy and black, and the coolness felt around them was also increasing.

It's windy, and it's still very strong.
