After becoming an octopus

For a moment, Zhang Zexi thought that she was too sad and had auditory hallucinations.

He looked at the little octopus lying on his body, still doubting his senses.

"My dear son, are you calling me?" Zhang Zexi stretched out her octopus claws and rubbed the little octopus's bald head.

The little octopus rubbed its face, and its ears twitched a few times. It nestled obediently on Zhang Zexi's body, and conveyed "Dad" with its consciousness.

Zhang Zexi's heart filled with lemons was stuffed into a jar of honey in an instant. He had always hoped that the little octopus would be able to differentiate. When this moment actually came, his emotions were also extremely complicated.

Zhang Zexi tried to make himself more emotional, "My dear son, you will be the only one left for daddy in the future." The moment he finished saying this, he really wanted to hug his son and cry, but his physical structure It was determined that he could not cry.

The little octopus didn't know if he could feel the change in his father's mood, but just rubbed his head against his tentacles, which looked more like rubbing itches.

"Are they all gone?" Xiao Hei was a little dazed. The departure of the little octopus reminded him of his past self. It's just that it's been too long, and he has somewhat forgotten the time he spent with his parents in the past.

"They're all gone." Zhang Zexi unconsciously looked into the distance.

"Will they... come back?" Xiao Hei also got along with the little octopus for a while, feeling a little reluctant.Although the little octopus can always blow up its hair with electric shock, but when it comes to watching them leave, they feel very complicated.

"Should...not come back." Zhang Zexi actually hoped that they would come back one day, but the sea is too vast, even if he is to the sea, he is just like a tiny plankton. Once lost, it is difficult to find the direction to go home. I only have such a result, let alone an undifferentiated little octopus?

Maybe he can also imagine that in a place he can't see, its children will one day differentiate, grow up healthy, and have a life of their own.

Perhaps because he was silent for too long, the little octopus suddenly called out, "Dad."

Zhang Zexi responded: "Good son."

"dad……"

"What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

"dad……"

The little octopus is like a child who has just learned to speak. It only calls Dad when it comes and goes, and Zhang Zexi responds time and time again.

Xiao Hei Wo yawned boredly at the side.

Gu Luo didn't know when he had returned to the original dormant boundary.

Zhang Zexi didn't know what the orange halo was that the sea beast sprayed out at the end, but she could feel the benefits of that thing for herself, and such benefits should be equally effective for the little octopus.

Lanwa poked his head in the coral group, and had already noticed the situation of the octopus family, and sneaked over against the accelerating current.

Lan Wa only dared to come up after seeing Gu Luo leave.

As far as morality is concerned, Lanwa really doesn't have it, but it has to be said that it is very winking.Minato didn't mention the leaving of the little octopus, but instead said, "Your little octopus is lucky to be blessed by the emperor octopus."

Zhang Zexi was originally not very interested in talking to Lanwa, but he still listened patiently to the little octopus, so he asked, "What is the blessing of the emperor octopus."

He seemed to have heard Lanwa mention the emperor octopus, and he asked about it himself. He even suspected that his species was the emperor octopus, because he had the ability to discharge electric rays after eating them.

Such a skill can only be achieved by the emperor octopus.Although Lanwa said that his body shape is too different from that of the emperor octopus, it does not prevent Zhang Zexi from being crooked.

Lanwa was a little intoxicated in his own world, "It turns out that the sea beast living in the territory over there is the emperor octopus, no wonder you can become the subordinate of the lord, let me just say, an excellent subordinate like me, between you and me, Why did you choose me, it must be because you and Lord Sea Beast are also octopuses."

"Probably the emperor octopus is afraid that you will accidentally sleep with his wife." Zhang Zexi sarcastically said that he totally disagreed with Lanwa's statement. He felt that the reason why the sea beast big octopus accepted his approach must be to find a free labor force Help him clean the barnacles from his body.But Zhang Zexi doesn't care much about this now, and asked, "You still haven't said that it's the blessing of the emperor octopus."

Lanwa was not annoyed when he was interrupted, and explained to him, "As you know, the number of emperor octopuses is very small, and even fewer can be differentiated into emperor octopus. In order to make the little emperor octopus grow healthily and smoothly, the emperor octopus A family has realized a skill, which is the blessing of the emperor octopus. The baby octopus blessed by the emperor octopus will not only enhance its physical fitness, but also increase the probability of differentiation of the little octopus. Like the qualifications of your little octopus, At most one or two can be differentiated, but with the blessing of the emperor octopus, it will be different, and maybe more can be differentiated in the future."

After listening to his explanation, Zhang Zexi was a little less worried about the little octopus, and at the same time felt grateful for the big sea beast octopus.

Zhang Zexi suddenly remembered something, "Will the blessing of the emperor octopus affect the emperor octopus?"

"I don't know the specific impact, but I have never heard that the emperor octopus will give blessings to octopus cubs other than octopuses. They usually only give blessings to their offspring." For a mysterious race like the emperor octopus, it only knows a little about it.

Zhang Zexi felt that such a blessing must pay some price, otherwise, how could the number of emperor octopuses be so small, and if all of them were blessed, they would not have reached the point where they are almost extinct today.

He took the little octopus and ran to the territory of the emperor octopus.

Gu Luo has closed his eyes at this moment, coiled in place, like a hill.

"Master Sea Beast, thank you for your blessing." Zhang Zexi thanked Gu Luo, whether it was the comfort to himself before or the blessing to the little octopus, everything deserved his sincere thanks.

Gu Luo opened his eyes, looked at the tiny octopus standing in front of him, and replied lightly, "Yes".

"Will your blessings to the little octopus affect your body? If there is anything that needs my help, just ask." Zhang Zexi felt that words alone could not express her gratitude. If she could do something for the emperor octopus Enough.

"No." Gu Luo was a little afraid of trouble, and there was nothing he needed to do.

Zhang Zexi felt that if this Emperor Octopus was placed in the human world, it would be a proper topic stopper.

Although Emperor Octopus clearly stated that he didn't need any help, Zhang Zexi decided to repay him in his own way.

When I bathed the emperor octopus last time, the other party seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. Next time, I can try to take a full-body scrub.

It’s just that the area that needs to be scrubbed is a bit large. If it is really going to be implemented, it must be well prepared. It may not be possible to get the project done within a few days.

The emperor octopus needs to rest, so Zhang Zexi won't bother him anymore, let's wait for the tide to stop.

That night, Zhang Zexi got into the lair that he hadn't been in for a long time. Before that, the cave rock was given to the little octopus, but now that the little octopus left, it was just right to fill him in.

The injured little octopus was still lying on him. Zhang Zexi checked it carefully and found that the healing of his wound had improved. It is not known whether it was the effect of the gorgonian coral or the blessing of the emperor octopus.

Zhang Zexi spent the night in the lair where the little octopus once slept. When the anglerfish light was turned on again, light came through the open door.

Zhang Zexi woke up in the dim light.

The baby octopus was sticking to his eyelids.

An octopus claw stretched out, and gently tore off the little octopus on the eyelid.

"My dear son, don't mess around." Zhang Zexi opened his eyes, and saw the little octopus writhing on his octopus claws.

"Huh?" Zhang Zexi asked in confusion, "Have all your injuries healed?"

The octopus claws on the little octopus that Zhang Zexi was holding were intact, and it was impossible to tell that two octopus claws had been broken.

This is different from what Zhang Zexi encountered before. His newly grown octopus claws will be cut short. Could it be that the blessing of the emperor octopus played a role?Then this effect is probably too great.

"dad."

No, the direction of the transmission of consciousness was a bit wrong, Zhang Zexi looked under her eyes, there was a little octopus lying on its stomach.

The wounds on the two claws of the baby octopus have healed, but the broken claws have not grown back.

"I'm not dreaming, am I?" Is it because I miss the little octopus so much that I have hallucinations?Zhang Zexi was in a daze, why were there two little octopuses in the nest?

"Father." The little octopus on Zhang Zexi's paw also called out his father.

Zhang Zexi woke up from a trance, rubbed the little octopus in disbelief, confirmed the authenticity of the octopus in front of him, and said excitedly: "My dear son, how did you come back?"

The octopus claws and ears of the little octopus were swimming together, "That's it, I swam back."

Zhang Zexi was a little moved in his heart. He thought that he would never see each other again, but he never thought that his son could be found again.

Zhang Zexi was very happy and decided to have a big meal with the whole family.

Some of the conch and sea mussels dug outside had been raised in the barnacle field for a few days, and they carried some energy with them, so Zhang Zexi decided to eat some of them today.

After getting ready for breakfast, Zhang Zexi felt a little empty when he saw that there were only two little octopuses left to eat with him.

The ocean tide lasted for several days, and in these few days, three little octopuses came back one after another. The little octopuses all found their way home after splitting up, which surprised Zhang Zexi.

"This is simply a miracle." Lanwa's tone was exaggerated, "I have never seen an undifferentiated creature enter the ocean current and find its way back."

Zhang Zexi had to correct his statement, "They have already differentiated."

Lan Wa didn't take it seriously, "Don't say that they are divided, even if I am lost, I may not be able to find my way."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, your wife and children are already the wives and children of other mantis shrimps, and your lover can change lovers at any time." But Zhang Zexi was also curious about their return, "How did you get them back?" With the company of a few little octopuses, his mood became much brighter.And seeing so many differentiated small octopuses made him very optimistic about the differentiation of other small octopuses.Even if the other little octopuses couldn't find their way back, he was content to think that they would be better off.

Most of the little octopuses couldn't express clearly, they only told Zhang Zexi that they swam back, only one of the little octopuses moved a small hole stone from the side, "Stone, I watched it swim back."

The size of this little octopus is a little bigger than other little octopuses, and its expressive ability seems to be clearer.

It was only when Zhang Zexi saw the hole stone that he suddenly realized that he had swam around with the little octopus before. Because he was afraid of getting lost, Zhang Zexi buried many hole stones along the way. direction.

If the little octopus just parked on the nearby seabed, it is very likely to be retrieved by marking.

They were chatting, Zhang Zexi saw two small orange figures in the distance swimming back in their direction.

Zhang Zexi was very happy, thinking that two of her little octopuses had returned, "You guys have come back again, let's go, let's meet them together."

Zhang Zexi's personality was originally very sunny and cheerful. Seeing more and more little octopuses find their way back home gave him a vision for the future.
