Guided by a lullaby, the originally thrilling journey to the island became extremely easy. The island and its surrounding waters are tranquil at the moment, and the beaches are filled with flocks of seabirds, one after the other, all asleep. Some birds landed on the beach and kept a clean posture, some were half-immersed in the water and did not wake up, and some even sank directly into the sea, but fortunately did not fall to death.

The beauty snake stops near the shoreline, exposing its upper body to the surface of the water, touching the bottom of the sea with its lower body, and before that, it is completely out of the water.

Zhao Muhan swam over, he was curious about what had just happened: why did all the other creatures fall into a deep sleep, but only he was unaffected?

The beauty snake replied to him, "I have some control over my songs. "It's true that the Mermaid rarely uses sonic attacks, but when needed, his control is excellent. He can put one part of his fellow creatures to sleep and the other to stay awake. Therefore, it is relatively not difficult to keep Zhao Muhan unaffected.

Zhao Muhan asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to go to the island?" Why stop here? He followed the gaze of the beauty snake and saw the white sand and green vegetation, and the beautiful scenery was peaceful and pleasant. The birds on the beach are asleep, even the crabs crawling around. Other than that, he didn't find any problems.

The beauty snake frowned, staring at the beach, and he said one word: "Dirty." ”

Zhao Muhan stared at it for a while before realizing what he meant by "dirty". It turned out to be because of the abundance of seabirds here, and birds usually excrete when flying. This has led to the accumulation of large amounts of guano and feathers on the beach. Since the color of the feathers is similar to that of the sand, he did not notice it at first. Looking at it now, it's a bit dirty.

Mermaid Snake does like to go ashore, and he used to visit his own island. Although there are seabirds there as well, there is never a sighting of birds on a sandy beach on the island because of his presence. The situation is different now, and there is no place to stay. Although he had no feet, only a tail, and could not walk and crawl, it was because of this that he could not go ashore more and more.

Zhao Muhan dropped a sentence and said, "Wait a minute." He then quickly walked ashore and plucked a palm leaf that grew luxuriantly on the beach, using it as a broomstick. He was busy on the beach for a while, sweeping aside a small piece of debris on the beach, and then chose clean leaves to spread on the beach to create a green "carpet".

After making sure that nothing was missed, he was about to tell the snake that it was time to go ashore, when the snake had already begun to glide and twist its body.

Among the sea serpents, there is a part that is completely aquatic and never goes ashore. This type of sea snake is a viviparous animal. However, there are also some sea snakes, which are oviparous. They need to go to the shore to lay eggs and reproduce, similar to how sea turtles reproduce.

Sea snakes have tails that resemble the shape of a ship's oars and are very flat, so they are not adapted to moving on land. However, when sea snakes leave the sea and completely break away from the water like the beauty snake, the side flattening structure at the base of their tails will gradually bulge as if they are inflated, allowing them to move like snakes on land, increasing their speed and stability.

Zhao Muhan noticed this phenomenon and sighed at the beautiful snake that swam in front of him, saying that such a sea snake is much more powerful than those mermaids who can only live in the sea.

The beauty snake looked at its tail and thought there was nothing strange about this change. Then she noticed Zhao Muhan's height, which she hadn't noticed when she was in the sea before. Now she compares with Zhao Muhan and finds that Zhao Muhan is actually half a head taller than her. Dissatisfied, she asked, "How tall are you?" ”

Zhao Muhan replied: "One meter ninety-one." ”

The beauty snake's expression showed that she was not very happy, Zhao Muhan could guess her thoughts, and she was dissatisfied with the difference in height between herself and Zhao Muhan. Although the tail of the beauty snake is very long, most of it is used to maintain balance and movement, and the height that is actually supported is similar to the level of a human being more than one meter and eight. Although her height is not bad, she looks petite in front of Zhao Muhan, a taller and sturdier fishman. In a world that is not only human, males of most species are more focused on their strength and appearance, sometimes even more so than females. In addition to humans, males are usually more ornate in many organisms.

After feeling slightly uncomfortable, the beauty snake tries to straighten her body, but it makes her feel uncomfortable like people tiptoeing. She had no choice but to change the topic and ask Zhao Muhan what the seabird in her hand was for.

Zhao Muhan replied that he planned to roast the seabird to eat. This seabird was still alive, and it was held by Zhao Muhan with his backhand and legs, and even then the bird did not wake up. This seabird has black and white feathers, is quite large, and its outstretched wings are more than half a meter long.

After hearing this, the beauty snake looked at the seabird with a hint of interest in food, but she felt a little uncomfortable because of the appearance of the bird's feathers and felt that it did not look very clean.

Zhao Muhan explained that he planned to roast the bird to eat because he hadn't eaten cooked food for a long time. He estimated that the bird weighed about five or six pounds, and that he had selected it from a flock of dead birds. Although he didn't know the name of the bird, he had eaten it a few times before on expeditions and was familiar with its appearance and taste.

However, the beauty snake looked at the bird's feathers and sensed a slight loss of appetite. She didn't think the feathers looked very clean. Zhao Muhan then asked why so many creatures around him were so eerily quiet.

The above is a reexpression of the original text. If you have questions about this text or need further explanation, please feel free to ask me.

The beauty snake has no exact concept of the passage of time, and simply says "time is running out".

It was difficult for Zhao Muhan to comprehend how fast, but despite this, he realized that this place was not suitable for staying for a long time. While some birds form some kind of partnership with crocodiles, which are relatively safe here, there is no guarantee that they will not be attacked once the bay crocodiles on the ocean floor awaken. Previous cases have shown that the bay crocodiles seem to be willing to enjoy a good meal ready-made.

Zhao Muhan proposed to enter the woods, and the beauty snake had no objection. He was full of curiosity, because the previous small island was limited, with few large creatures except birds, and a limited variety of plants. The place seemed to be much wider, and there might be something in the woods that he had never seen before.

So, the beauty snake shook its bewitching snake tail and swayed gracefully forward. Zhao Muhan was left behind, feeling a little dry. His idea of catching a baby crocodile as supplementary food was also shelved. With a harpoon in one hand and a seabird in the other, he quickly followed the serpent as it walked forward.

As soon as you enter the woods, the light quickly diminishes. The terrain is rugged and the ground looks like it is made up of reefs of various sizes. However, the ground is home to a thick accumulation of decaying plants, which add nutrients to this area, which is mainly composed of evergreen broad-leaved trees, including the main species of the family Shellaceae, Lauraceae, Camelliaceae, Magnoliaceae and Witch Hazel family.

In addition, the food resources on this island are quite abundant. A variety of tropical fruits can be found everywhere, such as coconuts, which bear fruit in all seasons, as well as bananas, pomegranates, lychees, mangoes, papayas, sugar cane, etc. Even if some fruits fail to bear fruit because they are not yet in season, Zhao Muhan can still recognize them at a glance. In addition, there are many unknown wild fruits.

The woods were silent, and even insects could not be heard. Despite this, Zhao Muhan still found many small and medium-sized animals resting in various places, the most common of which is monkeys.

The beauty snake came in with some regret because the place didn't look cleaner than the ocean outside. The rotting plants on the ground gave him a sticky feeling that made him feel very uncomfortable.

Overall, he began to think that the ocean was still the best place to be.
