After becoming an octopus

Because the barnacles were stolen, Zhang Zexi had to go to the barnacle mountain again for a bite to eat.

In order to go back early, Zhang Zexi quickly dug up barnacles on the barnacle mountain.

"Can you knock one for me?" A voice of consciousness came directly into Zhang Zexi's mind.

Looking back, Zhang Zexi couldn't help being a little surprised, the person talking to him was actually a blue crab living on the barnacle mountain.He had heard from the clownfish before that the blue crab living here should be a differentiated creature, but after digging barnacles so many times, it was the first time that the blue crab took the initiative to talk to him. The previous intersection was the blue crab. The crab stole a barnacle from him.

As soon as he turned his gaze, he saw that the place where the blue crab should have been two crab claws was empty.

"Why are your claws gone?" Zhang Zexi was not worried about the blue crab. If the crab's claws are broken, there is a chance to regenerate. Whether it will grow back is hard to say.

"There came a bad-tempered guy nearby. My crab claws were broken by him. The crab claws were split, so I had to break them off." The guy, now that it has no claws, it may be eaten by other creatures when it goes out of the barnacle mountain, but it can't find food if it doesn't go out.The barnacles cannot be broken open, and it basically cuts off the source of food.

This big octopus often moves on this mountain. The blue crab is repulsive at first, but it knows that it is not an opponent of the octopus, so when the octopus comes, it will hide with its partner. It is not afraid that the octopus will eat it , it is afraid that the octopus will eat its partner, and its partner is not a differentiated creature.

Now the reason why it asks the octopus for help is that it has no other way out. Its pincers are gone, and its wife has run away. Now it can only linger on this mountain alone.

Barnacle Mountain is quite special, even a little intelligent creature will not dare to approach it because of fear. So far, only the octopus family will appear here except for the mantis shrimp that interrupted its double pincers.It cannot communicate with other creatures, so naturally it can only ask the octopus for help.

"What kind of guy?" Zhang Zexi also thought of her stolen barnacle, wondering if it was the same suspect.

The remaining crab claws of the blue crab gestured, "It's a big mantis shrimp, that guy is too bad, not only broke my pincers, but also dragged the pincers away in front of my face, it must be taken Go for rations." After talking about it, it was really angry, and its two crab claws were knocked out for no reason, no matter which crab would not be happy.

If it was a mantis shrimp, Zhang Zexi had seen it at the edge of the barnacle mountain yesterday, but he was still a little puzzled, "For no reason, why did it hit you?"

"Isn't it stingy? I just stole a barnacle from it, and it broke my crab claws." Cricket barnacles can't be stolen?

Zhang Zexi was speechless, well, this guy is guarding a mountain of barnacles, and he still wants to steal other people's, no wonder his pincers were broken, it really deserves it for a blue crab.

However, he didn't think about making animals obey human laws.

My own barnacles were stolen!Did he say anything?

Thinking of the marks on the barnacle shell being beaten, it is likely to be the handwriting of this mantis shrimp. The predatory limbs of the mantis shrimp are very fast and powerful. It is not surprising that it can knock open the barnacle shell.

If it is really mantis shrimp, it will be a little troublesome. This kind of creature has a violent personality at a glance. If it is targeted, it cannot be solved by a meal or two of barnacles. After all, mantis shrimp is very powerful. Zhang Ze Even Xi didn't know if he could defeat him.

"What's the origin of that mantis shrimp? I haven't heard of it before." Zhang Zexi had just moved here not long ago, so he had limited knowledge of the residents here.

Scylla: "I only know that it is a differentiated creature, and it should not be our creature here. It may have come along the ocean current."

Zhang Zexi knew that ocean currents would carry creatures to various oceans, but he never knew the danger of entering ocean currents.

Thinking that there was such a dangerous creature nearby, Zhang Zexi hurriedly broke open a barnacle for Scylla, packed up her things and went back. Without her presence, the little octopus didn't know if it would be in danger.

Hurrying back, the house remained the same. He broke open the barnacles to feed the little octopus, thinking about what to do today.

Mantis shrimps are likely to live in coral colonies. Thinking of coral colonies, Zhang Zexi thought of his first friend in the sea, the clownfish. Maybe he should remind him later, lest the clownfish bump into the vicious mantis shrimps.

When he was still cleaning up the nest, he received the consciousness transmission of greetings from the clownfish.

Originally, I wanted to inform the clownfish about the murderous mantis shrimp, but I didn't expect the clownfish to come first.

Zhang Zexi got out of the lair, and the clown was watching his lair.

Seeing Zhang Zexi, the clownfish said excitedly, "Is this your new lair? It's amazing that you can move such a heavy travertine here."

Zhang Zexi said modestly, "It's not entirely due to me, but a friend also helped."

"It's great, we are all looking for a place to live by ourselves, and you can actually build a place to live by yourself." The clownfish was very envious.

Zhang Zexi chatted with the clownfish for a while, then mentioned her stolen barnacle, "My barnacle was stolen this morning, and the blue crab at the foot of the barnacle mountain was smashed with two claws broken, listen to it!" Said that we have a mantis shrimp here, I suspect it stole things."

"The currents have passed by in the past two days, and some creatures will indeed be brought in. It is not surprising that a mantis shrimp will come."

Zhang Zexi: "It's a differentiated mantis shrimp. I saw it strolling around the barnacle mountain that day, and took a barnacle with it. I think the direction it left should be in the coral group. It even differentiated. I’m afraid it’s dangerous. You live close together, so you’re very likely to encounter them. If you encounter them, remember to be careful.” Barnacle Mountain does feel dangerous, but it’s attractive enough However, there are still creatures who are willing to dig a little barnacles on the edge, and the mantis shrimp is obviously a creature that wanders on the edge of the barnacle mountain with some skills.

"It's too much, how can it even beat differentiated creatures?" The clownfish was a little angry when he heard that the blue crab had two claws knocked out.

Zhang Zexi told about the blue crab stealing mantis shrimp barnacles, but the clownfish was not so angry.

The little octopuses noticed the movement outside, and rushed out of the nest one after another, a large orange patch, somewhat densely packed.

The clownfish was shocked when he saw it, "Why are there so many little octopuses here?"

Zhang Zexi explained: "These are my sons. I just want to move because I can't accommodate so many children at home."

"You are such a strange octopus." After hearing his explanation, the clownfish concluded, "I haven't heard that octopuses will bring their own children, and you have brought so many."

Before Zhang Zexi brought the little octopus to visit, he thought that Zhang Zexi just raised a little octopus to relieve boredom, but he didn't know that the other party was so serious and raised tens of thousands of little octopuses.

"I hatched them all."

The clownfish is not very optimistic about his behavior of raising so many baby octopuses, "There are too many young octopuses, and you may not be able to raise them in the future."

Zhang Zexi is still very confident at the moment, "No, when they grow up, they will be able to forage for themselves, and I won't need to raise them then."

The clownfish said, "I've never seen so many octopuses living together." As for whether Zhang Zexi can really raise so many children, it's hard to say.

The clownfish just knew that he had moved, so he came to visit, confirmed the location of Zhang Zexi's house, and went home.

Zhang Zexi has not had time to set up a new home in the future, and plans to strengthen her territory early in the near future.

But he was also worried that during the time he was away, the irritable Pippi shrimp would come to make trouble in the nest. Yesterday it just ate its own barnacles. What if it ate a small octopus today?But he had to work today, and it was a bit troublesome to bring the little octopus with him. He had to go back and forth a lot, and it was also troublesome to bring so many conchs every time.

In the end, Zhang Zexi locked the little octopus at home temporarily, and the cave stone pile is not far from here, so if he goes back and forth quickly, there will be no major problems.

As for the stones, I won't pick them for the time being, just pick up some casually and pile them up, and choose slowly in the past two days.

After making a plan in his mind, Zhang Zexi drove to the hole stone pile with the car.

However, his worries were a bit superfluous. He pulled a cart of travertine back and forth, and the house did not change much. He pulled three carts of travertine back and forth, and large and small travertine stones were piled up nearby.

He chose two larger ones with a lot of space inside, and buried them next to the travertine. This one should be used as a storage room, and something needs to be sealed to seal it.

After a busy day, Zhang Zexi finally arranged the surroundings of the lair, temporarily stabilizing the lair.

Zhang Zexi waited in strict battle for several days, but the irritable mantis shrimp remained silent. Instead, the blue crab wanted something from him.

In order to grow its arms, the blue crab controlled itself to molt, and before it molted, it found Zhang Zexi.

"It was my fault for stealing your barnacles before, but I have learned my lesson. I only know you here who can communicate. If you don't help me, I will die."

Zhang Zexi didn't believe that it really repented, but the other party was at most a little clever, and he didn't do anything evil, so he didn't plan to pursue it any further, "How do you want me to help you?"

During the period of molting, the skin of the blue crab's body is very fragile. During this period of time, it may not be able to find food on its own. It hopes that Zhang Zexi can knock a few barnacles for it so that it can survive the period of soft shell.

In fact, even if Zhang Zexi didn't help, nothing would happen, the blue crab would be fine if she was hungry for a few days, at most she would lose weight.But Zhang Zexi still agreed, and promised to open a barnacle for it while he was looking for food.

For five days in a row, their lives had nothing to do with mantis shrimps. Just when Zhang Zexi thought that this matter would be over, something changed in a nest on the coral reef.
