under the sea

"Grumbling..."

The king squid moved two steps forward, and its big, somewhat terrifying black eyes stared greedily at He Zexi.

It felt like being stared at by a huge and incomparably dark abyss, and He Zexi, who had never felt the cold at the bottom of the sea, suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body.

Suddenly, the king squid said, "Hand him over."

His voice was as deep as a bell, and it was as unattractive as his appearance.

Huazhi wrapped He Zexi tightly behind him, and after hearing the words of the big squid, he didn't move, but raised his eyes to the big squid and uttered a word coldly - "Get lost."

Under the azure sea, there are not many creatures that can directly communicate with people like flower branches.Therefore, after the king squid uttered a word, even though He Zexi felt a chill run down his spine, he couldn't help feeling a strange excitement in his heart.

Professor, did you know?The mysterious creature you are looking for turns out to be more than one.

Looking at the huge king squid, He Zexi's eyes were shining.It would be great if the recorder was not lost, if it was still on him, so that he could record everything that happened now.

The size of this king squid is about the same as that of the known king squid, and it is covered with large and small scars all over its body.It seemed that he had just experienced a fierce fight not long ago. The king squid had several fresh wounds. Although it was no longer bleeding, the flesh on the wounds was still turned outwards.

It exudes an aura called danger from top to bottom, and its two eyes, which are larger than ordinary car tires on land, are staring at itself.

Unlike Hua Zhi, who was as friendly to him as he was, He Zexi knew that this giant squid was eyeing him right now—it wanted to eat him.

The king squid is approaching step by step, and the battle between the two undersea kings is imminent.

The color of Huazhi's body became more and more bright and bright, and the vigilance awareness reached the highest level.As the king squid approached, the size gap between the two became more and more obvious, and Hua Zhi's face darkened.

He gently pushed He Zexi away.

In the next second, Huazhi's body suddenly grew bigger.

He Zexi couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This is what He Zexi looked like when he saw the flower branch for the first time - a big guy over 20 meters long, at least three or four meters bigger than the king squid, the color of the flower branch is no longer as it was when we first saw it Simple dark color, the whole sea area is shining brightly with the flame-like red color of the whole body.

All the swimming fish near the sunken ship hid, and the nearby sea area became empty due to the confrontation between the two powerful men, and the ocean seemed to calm down in an instant.

Looking at the flame squid that suddenly became extremely huge, a trace of timidity appeared in the king squid's heart.

A few days ago, he chased and killed a pregnant female sperm whale to this sea area, and stayed here temporarily only after suffering serious injuries.He can only be regarded as an ordinary size, but this flame squid is obviously out of the category of "ordinary" flame squid - he is really too big, even almost catching up with the king Physalis squid.

When I first saw it following this human being, I thought it was just a mutated little one of the flame squid tribe, but I didn't expect it to be careless. It turned out to be an old monster of the sea tribe who didn't know that it had lived for hundreds or thousands of years.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through King Squid's mind. After weighing the pros and cons, he put away his hostility, and then his tone became gentle, "We are all a family, why make the relationship so rigid."

Huazhi said indifferently, "Get out of this sea."

The king squid did not expect that Huazhi would be so tough and would not give him face. His status in the sea clan is not low, and he has never suffered such blatant contempt. If you don't give him up, I'm willing to give you half of the sperm whale."

After the king squid finished speaking, he looked greedily at He Zexi.

He Zexi may not know it, but King Squid can smell his strong and seductive smell.That's the smell of astaxanthin, which is higher than in the body of a sperm whale.Astaxanthin is the strongest antioxidant on the seabed, and it is one of the substances that Huazhi injects into He Zexi's body in order to ensure that He Zexi can survive on the seabed.

Seeing that the king squid was still undeterred, Huazhi felt that her dignity was being challenged by this lifeless sea tribe.

Because of the fetters in his body, Huazhi sensed He Zexi's existence the first time he went out to sea, so he temporarily left his own sea area for a few days, but he didn't expect this ghost thing to appear in the sea area under his jurisdiction after returning. He even blatantly coveted what belonged to him. Thinking of this, Hua Zhi's mood became extremely bad.

"I don't want to go, do you need me to see you off? Or... want to stay here forever?" Hua Zhi asked in a low voice, his voice suddenly became gentle, but it was inexplicably more sinister in his ears The smell of it—it was a harbinger of his impending wrath.

The tide turned, and the balance of victory was tilted to Huazhi's side-at least it seemed so on the surface.

He Zexi tilted his head, looking at Huazhi who had become extremely calm due to his rage.He suddenly discovered that the flame squid is really a very cunning and camouflaged creature in nature.

The king squid finally realized that this human being was firmly protected by this sea clan. Although he was not reconciled, he realized the insurmountable gap between the two sides and left in despair.

Huazhi stared at the front with cold eyes, watching the figure of the king squid disappear far away from his perception, until he was sure that he would not come back again, Huazhi put away his guard and attack posture.

Without the threat, the already unhealed body could no longer maintain the huge consumption, and the flower branch fell backwards like a kite that had lost its string. During the backward leaning process, the body suddenly shrank to the size of a thumb .

He Zexi hurried over.Lowering his eyes, his eyes fell on the flame squid that fell to the ground.

He Zexi said, "Thank you."

Hua Zhi moved his eyes slightly, but didn't answer, he didn't even have the strength to crawl now.

He Zexi bent down, picked him up and put him in the small pocket on his chest to rest.

Huazhi slept for a long time.

When he woke up, He Zexi was sitting outside the house looking up at the "stars".

The pitch-black deep sea is emitting dots of floating light at this time, most of which are light blue and light green, and there is a small part of pink light mixed in between the light blue and light green... This is a group of Glowing comb jellies migrating with ocean currents.

Their transparent bodies seem to be wearing an invisibility cloak during the day and can completely hide in the sea water without being discovered, but at night, their transparent bodies will emit bright and beautiful light in the dark.

Noticing that there was an extra flower branch behind him, He Zexi didn't look back, but just looked up and said to himself, "I wonder if the weather has started to improve now?"

Hua Zhi: "Let me ask."

After a while, a huge blue whale swam over from a distant place. Its huge body swam around the sky above He Zexi and Huazhi a few times before leaving.

Huazhi: "No."

He Zexi looked up at the beautiful creature floating slowly in the direction of the water above his head, and whispered to himself, "It's so beautiful."

In the dark deep sea, you can see such scenery at any time without distinguishing between day and night.

As the days spent in the depths of the ocean became longer and longer, the initial edema and wrinkled skin on He Zexi's body disappeared, and his body gradually adapted to the sea as if he had adapted to land, but He Zexi began to panic psychologically. Arise, because he found with horror that, as the days passed, he was gradually losing the concept of time-under the deep sea, there is no day.

Looking at the beautiful "stars" above his head, He Zexi's heart became heavy.

Aware of He Zexi's frustration, Huazhi couldn't help but touch He Zexi's shoulder with his newly grown half-long new tentacles, and then gently hugged his neck.

After finishing this series, Hua Zhi couldn't help but be intoxicated with herself, he is really a caring and warm companion.

Feeling the very familiar silky coolness from the exposed skin of the neck, He Zexi's originally extremely depressed mood disappeared in this instant.

In his mind, he suddenly remembered the nightmare that haunted him like tarsus maggots for a long time after falling asleep before Huazhi was injured.

A light flashed in his mind, and He Zexi suddenly figured out something.So, he turned his head slowly, looked at Ten Claws with a gloomy face and prepared to wrap his own flower branch.

Huazhi: "..."

The warmth is interrupted all the time, and the ten paws that have been hugged halfway up are neither put nor put.

Staring benevolently at the big cuttlefish trying to comfort her with a warm embrace, a weird smile appeared on He Zexi's face.

"Huazhi, human beings have a special function that your marine creatures do not have, which is 'dream'. Do you know? Some time ago, I have been having a nightmare repeatedly..."

Huazhi's whole body was stiff.

He Zexi leaned closer to the flower branch, and continued: "I dreamed that I was strangled by the dead man's bone at the door."

Normally, if He Zexi took the initiative to approach, Huazhi would be so happy, but now...

Huazhi put away the tentacles wrapped around He Zexi's neck, and said stiffly, "You're having nightmares, what's none of my business?"

A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and completely forgot about the thoughtful, warm and good partner label that I just put on myself.

He Zexi laughed grimly, "But, it's so strange, I haven't had any nightmares since you were injured."
