The Third Animal

As the mixed-fur fox left, Zhao Meng's life returned to normal.

Opening the fields, planting, and then sitting on the stone platform to think about life.

On the third day after the mixed-fur fox left, Qing Xuan appeared again.

He told Zhao Meng that the imperial family of Zhao had been here before. Other than offering some money to the Two-World Mountain, those people from the imperial family only mentioned Zhao Meng casually, as if they had forgotten about him.

If it was his predecessor, he would definitely be provoked by such contempt.

However, to Zhao Meng, he could not wait for the imperial family of Zhao to forget him.

After all, he was no longer the real Prince of Zhao, and he was happy that the imperial family had forgotten about him.

This was just a small interlude.

After that, Zhao Meng's life became monotonous.

He gradually felt the loneliness of guarding the mountain. Other than Qing Xuan who came every once in a while, no one else appeared on the Two-World Mountain.

In this state, he even missed the mixed-fur fox.

"The fox's gender has been changed, and its appearance has been optimized!

"I think, with his handsome fox looks, he should be very popular on Fox Hill Mountain, where female foxes dominate!

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng sighed silently.

Time continued to pass.

As he spent more and more time on Two-World Mountain, Zhao Meng also realized that the time for Taoist Qing Xuan to deliver food and water was a little irregular.

This made him a little worried. If Qing Xuan left the Two-World Mountain to attend to some matters and the others forgot to make the delivery to him, he would starve to death here.

Therefore, he had to rely on himself to ensure that he had enough food and water.

The problem of food was alleviated after some fields were opened up.

The only problem was the source of water.

Therefore, Zhao Meng did a certain amount of exploration of the mountain peak he was on.

Soon, he realized why those Taoist priests let him move freely after throwing him onto this mountain.

This was because he discovered that although the mountainside was relatively flat, it was extremely steep below it.

It was impossible for a mortal to find the way down the mountain.

In this situation, he could only explore the mountain top. Fortunately, this mountain was very big.

Zhao Meng found some streams and pools in this mountain. Water was not a problem.

However, facing the stream far away from the tiled house, he had nothing to do.

He asked Qing Xuan for a chopper and cut some bamboo in the mountain. He planned to build a water channel.

However, as a modern human, Zhao Meng's skill and experience were still very limited. The construction process was not fast and it was easy to fail.

Fortunately, he had watched some wilderness survival programs in his previous life. He also did not lack time.

He slowly built a line for drinking water, and this kind of work killed most of his time.

In the blink of an eye, it had been 80 days since the last time the mixed-fur fox appeared.

The phantom in Zhao Meng's consciousness condensed again.

He was just like before.

He sat cross-legged on the stone platform in front of the tiled house and began to use his consciousness to make contact with the human-headed snake phantom.

After living in this lonely mountain forest for nearly three months, Zhao Meng was already extremely lonely.

He did not hesitate at all.

He began to simulate new animals.

…

A strange sound kept echoing in Zhao Meng's mind.

After an unknown period of time, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a blue world appeared in front of him.

"This is the sea. Have I become a marine animal this time?"

At this moment, the system's voice appeared in his consciousness.

[In January, you were born. You discovered that you had become a dolphin.]

"Dolphin!"

Only then did Zhao Meng notice that there were a lot of gray shadows in the surrounding seawater.

He looked closely and saw that he was in a strange group of species.

These species had smooth and hairless skin, and their bodies were strong and agile.

Zhao Meng immediately recognized this animal that he had seen countless times on the video network.

"Dolphin!!"

"And it's an animal with a good reputation.

"I've finally simulated a normal animal!"

Thinking of some stories about dolphins, Zhao Meng felt inexplicably relieved.

"I hope that the messages I obtained this time will be more normal and useful!"

Just as Zhao Meng was about to continue thinking, he felt that his breathing was a little labored.

Driven by instinct, he wanted to open the breathing hole on his body.

However, he immediately realized that he was still in the sea. If he opened the breathing hole, he might choke to death.

Therefore, he held his breath and wanted to go to the surface of the sea to take a breath.

However, as a newborn dolphin, his stamina was still very weak. He only floated on the sea for a moment before sinking again.

Not only did the dolphin controlled by Zhao Meng fail to breathe, but he also almost choked on a mouthful of seawater.

"Oh no, if this continues, the simulation that has just begun will end!"

Just as Zhao Meng was about to struggle…, he felt his abdomen being held back by something. Then, he floated to the surface of the sea again and successfully took a breath.

[In the first year, you grew up smoothly under your mother's nurturing. You mastered the ability to swim and breathe!]

A little dolphin was playing happily in the sea.

Compared to the previous two simulations, this simulation could be said to be the most comfortable one for Zhao Meng.

The school of dolphins he was in was very large. There were more than a hundred of them.

With the very high intelligence of dolphins, the success rate of cooperative hunting by the group was very high, so there was almost no need to worry about food.

And in the face of other large marine predators, dolphins, in turn, would often use herd strategies to repel other predators in the sea.

It could be said that large schools of dolphins had a very high status in the sea.

Under such circumstances, as a young dolphin, he would not encounter any danger.

The only thing that made Zhao Meng feel helpless was that compared to the Sea Hare and the Tassel Sandpiper, who could mature in a few weeks, his growth cycle was very slow.

[In the second year, you thrived under your mother's nurturing. Your mother began to teach you hunting skills. Unknowingly, you also learned some of the ways of communication in your group!]

"These dolphins can talk!"

In his second year as a dolphin, Zhao Meng discovered something.

These dolphins had their own way of communicating.

Although they could not reach the level of human language, they could still speak some language beyond that of animals, such as profanity.

In his previous life, he only knew that killer whales would curse at each other.

But he did not expect dolphins to have such high intelligence.

This made Zhao Meng feel a little incredulous.

"Yes! What is that male dolphin doing?"

Zhao Meng, who was wandering in the group, suddenly noticed a relatively young male dolphin doing something he could not understand.

The dolphin hollowed out an uneaten fish and then…
