After becoming an octopus

After making gestures, Zhang Zexi didn't understand what Xiao Hei was talking about. Those descriptions were too abstract. Why is there a part that looks like a nest? What kind of horrible creature can have a place that looks like a nest?

What about this lair?

After playing for a while, I guess what you draw, Zhang Zexi finally decided to go and see for himself, not knowing exactly what happened to this friend Xiao Hei.

But now it's getting dark, Zhang Zexi doesn't plan to go out, let Xiao Hei stay nearby for one night, and go there together tomorrow morning.

Zhang Zexi also got a piece of sponge for it to use as a mattress, and spread it on the flat big rock where Xiao Hei usually lays down while touching fish.

Xiao Hei got a new bed and slept happily, leaving all his troubles aside for the time being.

The next day, led by Xiao Hei, Zhang Zexi went to the sponge group and came to its new friend.

Zhang Zexi tried her best to get close to the bunch of hollowed-out sponges in the bottle, and only then saw the Li shrimp living in the sponges from the gap.

For such a small Lixia, this is a hollow sponge villa!Still looks good.

Similarly, this is also a cage that confines them all their lives. For this alone, Zhang Zexi is not envious at all.

Zhang Zexi first introduced himself, "Excuse me, I'm Zhang Zexi. I came here this time because Xiao Hei told me that other differentiated creatures have visited the sponge group. I want to ask what happened to those differentiated creatures. .”

Li Xia had seen Zhang Zexi some time ago. It lived in a cage woven with sponges. All it could see in this life were the creatures living around it. There were no octopuses living on this sea of ​​sponges. Zhang Zexi was the one he met. The first octopus to arrive.

Zhang Zexi worked hard to save this dying group of sponges, and also kept Li Xia's living place. Li Xia had a good impression of him.

"I don't know what my name is." Li Xia never thought of giving himself a name, "I saw those differentiated creatures a few months ago, they seemed to have buried something in the ground, and then those black The sponges grew wildly. This time, I also know some conversations. But I don’t understand some of what they said. I only know that they will not let go of the guys who destroy their good deeds. I’m afraid they may make trouble for you. Because you cured the disease of the sponge group."

"Are they targeting fluffy sponges?" Zhang Zexi thought of the fluffy sponges he had scraped back.

"It should be. They think more, as if they can get more benefits. You snatched everything they want. I guess they will come here. I heard them say that they want to eat the guy who ruined their good deeds." " Li Xia was also very anxious when he heard the conversation of these differentiated creatures, and immediately told him when he saw Xiao Hei.

Zhang Zexi also became serious. According to Li Xia, these differentiated organisms may be the reason for the flooding of velvet sponges. They want to cultivate more Rongrong sponges in exchange for other benefits.

The energy stone in the sponge group seems to be buried by the other party.

Zhang Zexi couldn't help thinking, what would they do if they encountered this group of differentiated creatures?Return the energy stone?

It is impossible to return it back, he has used up all those energy stones, so there is no reason to return them!

As for the energy stone on Xiao Hei's body, he is planning to coax the energy stone from Xiao Hei's hands back to grow vegetables these few days. How can anyone steal the meat in his mouth.

What's more, as far as the whole family looked back, it was the big villain who wanted to destroy the entire sponge group. After knowing that his plan failed, he still carried out destruction in the sponge group.With the vicious aura of the other party against it, isn't he the kind of protagonist who saves the world?

Zhang Zexi thought about it carefully, and felt rather complacent.

He slapped his tentacles on his face, now is not the time to be proud.

These differentiated organisms mentioned the idea of ​​barter, so it is likely to come from the upper seabed.

Perhaps he could ask the blue tiles, also from the upper seabed.

Zhang Zexi doesn't know what the enemy looks like at the moment, it's best to figure out what the opponent is, whether he is strong or not, and whether he can beat him.

If you can know what the other person looks like, you can also be prepared when you meet, so as not to accidentally reveal your secrets, "What are the specific looks of those differentiated creatures you mentioned?"

"The top half of those differentiated creatures are bare, with long hair growing on their heads, and the bottom half is a fish's tail."

Zhang Zexi was a little hard to describe, Li Xia had seen very few creatures, and her vocabulary was also very poor.

He glanced at Xiao Hei, and he really blamed it at first, not because it was not good at expressing, but because the first transmitter of the information described something so abstract.

Zhang Zexi found a softer stone slab from the surroundings, and then took a sharper stone, "You describe it and I will draw it, and you can see if it is the same."

Li Xia was very curious about the new word "painting", so he began to make gestures for him.

"Has a round head with long hair."

Zhang Zexi drew a circle on the slate, and subconsciously added hair.

"Under the head is half a nest."

Zhang Zexi:? ? ?

"Nest?" Even though Zhang Zexi was imaginative, she couldn't think of a nest under her head.

"It's a den, the kind of den I live in."

Zhang Zexi understood, isn't it just a cylinder, "Is it bigger or smaller than the head?"

"Small."

"Is that so?" Zhang Zexi transferred the picture to Li Xia, with hair growing on her head, and a cup seemed to be placed under her head.

"You paint really like it, it's amazing." Li Xia, who had never touched painting before, praised Zhang Zexi's soul painting skills, but it's a pity that he can only use the most simple words to praise Zhang Zexi.

Zhang Zexi knew how much she weighed, so she felt embarrassed to be praised so suddenly, "Let's continue, what's next?"

"The next part is like that stone." The stone Li Xia mentioned was a bucket-shaped stone, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.

Zhang Zexi drew a trapezoid under the neck.

After Li Xia confirmed it, he continued to describe, "There is a nest on each side of the stone."

"Where is it, top? Middle? Bottom?"

"superior."

Zhang Zexi drew two sticks on both sides of the trapezoid. Li Xia looked at it and said, "It's not long enough, add two more nests."

Zhang Zexi added a section to each of the two sticks, "The lower part is the tail of a fish?"

"Correct."

Zhang Zexi drew a fish tail under the trapezoid again, turned around to show Li Xia, "Is that so?"

Li Xia's small body was very excited, "That's right, that's it, your drawing looks so similar!"

Zhang Zexi stared at it for a while, feeling a little familiar, isn't this the shark who came to find fault some time ago?

"By the way, what color are they all?" If they were really sharks, he wanted to confirm which color they belonged to.

"There are several colors. The headed differentiated creature has white hair and blue body. There are many other colors. One is red and white together, and the others have three or four colors."

After listening to the description of these colors, Lanwa was not sure. The sharks seemed to be of pure color, and these various colors should not be the sharks.

In this way, he even wanted to go back and ask the mantis shrimp, maybe Lanwa would know what these things came from the upper seabed.

Whether it is the Shark Race or not can not be confirmed from his abstract painting, Zhang Zexi decided to go back and have a look first, maybe Lanwa will recognize these creatures from the upper seabed.

Xiao Hei is relatively naive, but he treats his friends so sincerely. Listening to Li Xia's description, he can't help but worry about Li Xia's safety, "You have been living here, if they come here, you will not be in danger? Get out, let you out."

"It doesn't matter, they don't know that I am a differentiated creature." Li Xia is small in size, even if it is differentiated, it hasn't grown much. "You and I have lived here for so long and haven't found out that I am a differentiated creature, and they are even less likely knew."

The area of ​​the sponge group is not small, as long as the shrimp is willing, those differentiated organisms will not be able to find it.

Li Xia dismissed Xiao Hei's thoughts, "These sponges do limit our range of activities, but my partner and I can survive until now thanks to them. If they are damaged, we will lose our protection."

Xiao Hei heard that Li Xia might be in danger, so he gave up the idea of ​​destroying the sponge.

After Zhang Zexi got the rough information from Li Xia, he was going to go back and ask Lanwa to see if he found anything else.

Before leaving, he told Li Xia to be careful, and took Xiao Hei back.

Back at the lair, Zhang Zexi picked up the slate and planned to meet Lanwa. Before leaving, she said to the little girl, "The sponge group is not safe these days, so don't go back for now, and stay near us for a while, so as not to get in trouble with those There are so many differentiated creatures that you may not be able to do it.”

If those differentiated creatures were really sharks, Xiao Hei would still be beaten all over the ground by the opponent, let alone a one-to-one matchup.

Zhang Zexi found the nests of several female mantis shrimps, and pulled out the blue tile from one of them.

"Look at this." Zhang Zexi put the stone slab in front of Lanwa.

Lanwa stared at the slate for a long time before asking in confusion: "What do you want me to see?"

"What else can you see? Of course, I want you to see the creatures painted on the slate." Zhang Zexi snatched the slate back, a little unhappy.

"What kind of creature is this? It looks quite strange." Lanwa felt that his temper was inexplicable. It was just a mantis shrimp, and it didn't understand such a complicated inner interpretation.

"Don't you think this is very similar to the shark clan?" Zhang Zexi was flattered by Li Xia when he was in the sponge group, and he was a little unwilling to touch porcelain here at Lanwa.

"From what you said, it seems to be a bit similar." Lanwa can read his face, but the octopus has a backer, so it has to follow the other party's wishes.

Zhang Zexi then asked: "Apart from the four clans you mentioned last time, are there any other branches of the Mermaid clan? For example, the body is blue and the hair is white, or the body is a combination of several colors, and the hair is white." Is it green?"

After listening to the description, Lan Wa immediately gave the answer, "The sharks you mentioned are hybrid sharks, right?"

When Zhang Zexi heard it, there seemed to be something wrong, "What kind of shark is a hybrid shark? Is it born of the shark clan and other creatures?" He couldn't help but think about it, why is it called a hybrid shark?Is it possible that the mermaid race, like the dragon, can directly ignore reproductive isolation and achieve great harmony with other races at will?
