Zhao Muhan quietly observed the situation and did not dare to make the slightest move. Although the mermaid snake wondered why the previous petrification effect had been lifted, the person remained still. She touched him lightly with her sharp nails, and the feeling of stiffness before was gone. The beauty snake's nails easily left a mark on his skin, but luckily she controlled her strength and didn't really puncture the skin and leave a wound.

Although Zhao Muhan's muscles are very strong, they are also elastic. This tactile sensation cannot be the result of the petrification effect not being lifted.

The beauty snake narrowed her eyes and looked earnestly at her prey. His eyes are as blue as jewels, and his pupils occupy most of the whites of his eyes, making him very beautiful. But when emotional, the pupils change from round to vertical, revealing a dangerous aura. At the moment, his eyes...

The vertical pupil has a powerful deterrent power, especially when you are unprepared to see this change suddenly. Although Zhao Muhan had already been mentally prepared to deal with emergencies at any time, the change in the beauty snake's eyes still startled him, and his pupils quickly contracted to show this.

The beauty snake was very pleased with this effect, she smiled softly, opened her lips slightly, and said a word.

"Are you human?"

The voice of the beauty snake is very special, like a distant and beautiful song, like a lover's whispering in the ear, with a hint of charm in the soft voice, which makes people fall into it and gradually relax. This is the innate talent of the Krakens, and no matter what kind of Kraken, they all have a beautiful singing voice that bewitches humans. Without this ability, how could the Kraken lure a ship to their island? So that the ship will be in danger, and eventually the ship will be destroyed?

Mermaid Snake knows this very well, and this knowledge has been passed down from her mother and is very well preserved. However, she never really cared about any of this, as she wasn't about to seduce anyone. At the time of her birth, the gods were long gone, humans dominated the world, and the sea was their domain. The sight of the serpent once seeing a huge ship performing a military exercise from afar shocked her, and drove her away from humanity from the heart.

Thus, the words spoken by the serpent are not any language known to man, but a sacred language that originates from the age of the gods. In fact, she just knew the language, and this was the first time she had used it. You know, life in the ocean doesn't require verbal communication, and no creature has the leisure to talk to the Kraken. The Kraken stands at the top of the food chain and is a predator in the ocean.

It seems unlikely that such an obscure intonation could have been produced by a human voice. Zhao Muhan was sure that this was the first time he had heard this language. He shouldn't have been able to understand, but oddly enough, he did.

This is different from understanding the words of the snake woman. It was more like an invisible presence that automatically translated her words and played them out in his head. It's impossible to pretend not to understand.

"I'm a fishman," the phrase automatically blurted out of his mouth, and he relaxed. Zhao Muhan immediately became vigilant, and his gaze changed from an absent-minded state to a sober alertness. He was amazed at the sound of this strange creature, which could produce such an effect. Just one sentence made him let his guard down, and he subconsciously responded in the same way.

Human language. The snake girl was confirmed from Zhao Muhan's words. Although he hadn't learned any human language, he had heard it from a distance before. The island where he lives is not far from humans; It's just that the sea is full of reefs and frequent underwater whirlpools, so few humans dare to approach it. However, in relatively safe waters, fishing boats often pass by, and one of the languages they speak is the same language spoken by this strange creature that calls itself "Fish-Man".

The snake woman is unable to express herself in human language, but she is able to understand it, thanks to the fishermen who often linger near her residence. However, it had been a long time since he saw those fishermen, and he did not know if they were among the disasters mentioned by his "neighbors".

But even if they didn't die in that disaster, they probably died of old age, right? The snake woman wasn't so sure. He was insensitive to the passage of time, especially when asleep, so his concept of human lifespan was never very clear.

The only thing he can use as a temporary time reporter is the red coral colonies in the deep ocean. It seemed to have grown four inches taller since he last woke up, which meant those humans should have died. (It takes about 20 years for an inch-long red coral to grow; They are an extremely slow-growing species. ）

"What is a fishman? Emerging races? What happened to the humans before us? ”

The beauty snake asks a series of questions in a row, all of which are of most interest to him at the moment. He hadn't experienced a catastrophe because he was too deep asleep to be completely unaware of what was happening. Therefore, it was difficult for him to imagine what it would be like then. Although the "neighbors" told him something about that period, he was always curious and unable to explain it. After all, these "neighbors" are limited in what they can express, and it is not easy for them to tell the story, and the beauty snake herself feels a little embarrassed.

And now, with a "fish man" in front of him who is clearly aware of the situation and able to talk, the beauty snake naturally gives full play to his curiosity.

The eyes of the beauty snake have regained their round pupils, and the previous vertical pupils have disappeared. This pair of beautiful eyes shimmered like the most beautiful sapphires, flickering in the morning light, making Zhao Muhan look in a trance.

The mother of the beauty snake is the beautiful contact Xin, who is known for her beauty. Otherwise, his father Bo Xichen would not have been infatuated with her, and Athena would not have ruined her face with jealousy. The beauty snake was born to inherit the original appearance of the beautiful contact lenses, and his smile is simple and charming, enough to make people fall in love with it. If it weren't for Zhao Muhan's good concentration, I'm afraid he would have been fascinated by this smile.

Even if he was not fascinated, Zhao Muhan was also impressed by the charm of the beauty snake at the moment. He had completely lost his vigilance and guard, and all that was in his eyes was the bright eyes and the smiling beauty.

After cleaning up his mind a little, Zhao Muhan finally found his voice: "Fish people are human beings, evolutionary variants of human beings, and we call ourselves new human beings. ”

He looked away from the beauty snake and remembered the snake tail that had been staring at him impolitely. Previously, he had sat on the reef to observe the prey, and the tail of the beauty snake was naturally swinging in the water. However, it is very rude for merfolk to be stared at their fishtails, just like a man staring at a woman's boobs all the time, which will only cause resentment.

Zhao Muhan himself knew this, but he still couldn't help but look at it. Compared to the tail of a mermaid, it is usually only about 1.5 meters long, and the longest is no more than 2 meters. And the tail of the beauty snake is three meters long, which is even more slender and elegant. The tail of the snake is covered with green scales, unlike fish scales that can be shed. These snake scales are derived from the production of the epidermis and dermis, which make up their outer covering. Unable to fall off. They are almost the same size, staggered and appear very neat. At regular intervals, the snake's scales darken slightly, creating a distinct circular pattern. When the beauty snake swings its tail in the water, it looks elegant and enchanting.

Although Zhao Muhan had seen the mermaid's tail up close before, he now felt that no fish tail could compare to the beauty of this snake's tail.

The beauty snake didn't care about his gaze, but was delighted. He had always considered his snake tail to be one of the most beautiful sea snake tails, but he never had the chance to show it. Now there is someone to appreciate, and of course he is happy. So, he slid off the reef into the water, his body swaying, and he was satisfied to see Zhao Muhan's eyes showing more appreciation.

"Is my tail pretty?"

Zhao Muhan nodded, he didn't hesitate to think that this was the most wonderful tail he had ever seen, although it didn't belong to the category of mermaids.

"I also find it very fascinating." The beauty snake said triumphantly, then handed the tip of its tail to Zhao Muhan, and added in a show-off tone, "Do you want to touch it?" It is very pleasant to the touch. ”

Touching the tail? Zhao Muhan's entire body froze. A mermaid's tail is never to be touched, and if a mermaid is willing to let a human touch her tail, it means that she is willing to have a deep relationship with that human.

Although the person in front of him is not a real mermaid, its similar structure allows Zhao Muhan to associate the beauty snake with the mermaid. So, does touching the tail mean the same thing?
