Chapter II
What's the most laughable thing for a predator?
Sui Xiong thought that he could fight the invincible opponents all over the world, but he couldn't catch up with the prey with short legs and short feet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Well, that's his current situation.
He was running in the water as hard as he could, trying to catch up on the big fish in front of him, but no matter how much he ran, the distance between him and the fish was getting bigger and bigger, and soon he was desperate enough.
So he had no choice but to give up and stop sighing.
During the hunt just now, he managed to eat the souls of more than a dozen small fish, however, he failed to catch a single big fish.
The fish, whose names he didn't recognize, were noticeably more agile the larger they were. Those little fish were ignorant, even if they were stuck to his side, they didn't notice it, and they could easily catch them and eat them with their souls. But the big fish is different, these guys can obviously sense his presence, can sense his danger, so whenever he tries to get close to a big fish, the fish will turn around and swim away quickly, running away from him.
Of course, he tried to sneak closer, but to no avail, as if he was a firefly in the dark night, so windy that he couldn't hide his presence at all. He tried to chase his prey, and then in vain he found that he was running too slowly.
"This will not work!" he said to himself after another failed hunt, "this will not work, it is impossible to catch it!"
So he had to turn his gaze back to those stupid little fish.
Although the soul portion of a single small fish is small, it is enough to eat more......
It's not a glorious thing to bully the small, but if it's for survival, it's different. Don't you see that in nature, no matter what kind of carnivore, when hunting, they will give priority to the old, weak, sick and disabled?
Sui Xiong wanted to rely on this thought to relieve the depression in his heart, but it turned out to be of little effect.
Those carnivores in nature probably won't have such a high IQ as him, and they won't have the melancholy and sadness of this literary youth.
In other words, they don't have the invincible combat power of him, their "life" is a cycle of hunting and resting, and they don't have time to make sad feelings about spring and autumn.
Standing in the middle of a group of dead fish that were drifting with the tide, Sui Xiong sighed melancholy.
"Always hunting small fish, it will destroy the ecological balance!"
A few hours later, when Sui Xiong saw a school of fish so large that he couldn't see the edge, he realized his mistake.
A small predator of his size, no matter how much he eats, will not be able to destroy the entire ecological balance.
Don't you see the giant whale with a single horn on its head that is roaring? That guy eats enough for half a year. That guy didn't destroy the ecological balance, so what could he do.
Sui Xiong thought about it, and then he felt extremely dangerous.
It's a feeling like a man on his back, no, it's too inaccurate to describe it as "like a man on his back", it's just that the tip of the needle has been pressed against his eyeball, and a little further will be pierced into a blind man.
Where does this danger come from?
Sui Xiong looked left and right, looking for the source of the crisis.
He didn't have to look for it soon, because the answer was right in front of him.
The narwal whale didn't know why, it obviously had a lot of food in front of it, but it turned a blind eye, and used its huge body to knock away countless small fish that should have been its food, and swam straight towards Sui Xiong.
"Damn!"
He cursed, turned and ran.
It's really a quick repayment of the moon debt, he was chasing and killing others before, and now it's his turn to be hunted down.
Looking at the huge size of the giant whale, you don't have to think about it to know that you definitely can't beat it. Since you can't beat it, you can only run.
However, he only ran a few steps before stopping.
The giant whale swims so fast, with its short legs, can it run away?
Obviously impossible! Only if you can run away can you have a ghost!
So what to do?
Faced with a life-and-death situation, Sui Xiong fell into deep thinking.
Question: What should you do when you are alone in the wilderness, without any means of transportation or weapons, and now a terrifying beast is rushing towards you in the distance, seemingly intending to treat you as dinner?
Waiting online, a little rushed.
However, there was no use for the eggs, because he did not even have a net now, and no matter how long he waited, he could only wait for the narwhal.
And it won't be long.
All kinds of reliable and unreliable thoughts came one after another, and Sui Xiong looked around frantically, looking for a chance to escape.
However, nothing was found.
If he could dive into the depths, he might be able to try to get into the cracks in the rocks at the bottom of the sea, and no matter how strong the narwhal was, he couldn't lift the whole bottom of the sea to catch him.
But he couldn't dive too deep, about two meters to the sky.
If he could fly high in the air, he would be able to evade the sea creature and make faces at it in the air and laugh at its incompetence.
However, Sui Xiong himself will not be able to fly.
He tried, and was sure that although he could jump up and leave the water temporarily, even if his soul did not have a weight limit, he could only jump about two meters high in the sky.
If on earth, the vertical jump is two meters high, it can be called a shocking record, enough for him to sweep the Olympic Games and leave a legend. But for his current predicament, it was useless.
This distance is not worth mentioning for a giant beast that may be more than five meters away from its open mouth.
"Could it be that this is the end of my crossing, and if I am eaten by this big whale, will I cross back?"
Seeing that the giant whale was getting closer and closer to him, Sui Xiong couldn't help but talk nonsense because he was too nervous.
Just then, he noticed a large jellyfish swimming slowly on the surface of the sea.
The jellyfish had nothing special about it except that it was very large, and it was the same as the ones he had eaten before.
But for some reason, his heart was like a flash of lightning, and it suddenly lit up.
Maybe...... You can try it......
In the next moment, Sui Xiong shrunk his body as much as he could, and then slammed into the jellyfish fiercely.
There was a violent tremor around him, and after a few moments, the shaking stopped, and his vision was calm.
Blue sky, blue water, and a little food.
He didn't have time to think about it, swallowed the jellyfish's soul in one gulp, and swam hard in the direction he remembered.
This swim is very clumsy, and if there is a clown show competition in the jellyfish world, he can definitely win a gold medal for this swimming.
A moment later, the surface of the water not far away shook violently, and a huge body swam around the surface of the water, as if looking for something, but after all, it found nothing, and sank into the water again.
He won the bet!
Sure enough, when he possessed the jellyfish and was no longer a soul without a shell, the whale could not find him.
When the giant whale sank into the water, Sui Xiong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still hadn't put his mind at ease. He struggled his tentacles and continued to swim away from the whale.
Although he didn't swim fast, he didn't dare to stop at all.
I don't know how long he swam, but seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, he was a little relieved.
It's dark, the seabirds are home, the fish are resting, is he safe now?
I'm not sure because he didn't study marine biology at all, and it's just a random guess.
But for him, the night is indeed very good, no matter what kind of myth and legend, ghosts love the night.
Lying on the sea and resting for a while, he planned to get out of the body of this unlucky jellyfish. This guy is too fragile and too slow to swim. Even if you want to possess the body, you should find a fish to possess it, preferably a big fish.
Soon, however, he discovered the problem, a big one.
He can't get out of the jellyfish's body!
It's not completely impossible to get out of it, it's just that it can't be completely out of the jellyfish shell. The thin shell, the body so weak that a wave seemed to shatter it, but at the moment it was unimaginably tough. No matter how he dragged or tore it, it was stuck to him and could not be separated. On the contrary, if you are not careful, the whole soul will subconsciously shrink into the jellyfish, and even the perspective will change to the jellyfish mode.
After a long futile attempt, Sui Xiong finally gave up, until the moon was in the middle of the sky.
"It's over, I'm a jellyfish now. ”
He looked up to the sky and sighed, having to admit this sad fact.
Before I thought I had crossed over, I had read the story of the Eight Immortals, in which Tie Guan Li seemed to have accidentally fallen on the body of a beggar corpse, and since then he has become a lame beggar. I remember that when I read the story at that time, he laughed at it, thinking that this fairy was quite brainless, if he had the opportunity, even if he didn't go to the emperor's body, at least he had to find a big stone on Huaguo Mountain.
However, the end result is that he became a jellyfish and became a being in the middle and lower layers of the marine food chain.
What a bad luck to get home!
After lamenting for a while, Sui Xiong quickly perked up again because he was hungry.
Sighing doesn't solve the problem, now it's important to fill your stomach.
"What should jellyfish eat?" he froze as he tried to forage for food.
What do jellyfish eat? I haven't learned this!
Eat fish?
Looking at his weak body and slender tentacles, he shook his head. It's almost the same as being eaten by fish!
That's plankton, right?
But where is the plankton?
Sui Xiong looked around, left and right, and searched for a long time, but he didn't find any shadow of plankton.
The feeling of hunger grew stronger, and his mood became more and more anxious.
What happens if you can't find anything to eat? I'm sure I'm going to starve to death.
Will the ghost die? Not sure, but this jellyfish will definitely starve to death.
So, if you starve to death, you can be liberated from the jellyfish's body?
Maybe...... There is no such good thing, is it......
Sui Xiong thought and thought, distressed.
At this moment, he suddenly felt shocked in his heart, feeling that he was being targeted by something.
This feeling is far less intense than when it was targeted by giant whales, but it is also quite uncomfortable, like a small pebble in a shoe, and it is like a foot staggering.
Looking down, there was a group of small fish swimming in the distance, just like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, tearing up and eating the jellyfish on the sea surface one by one.
These fish are not big, the largest is only the size of a palm, but they are quite fierce, and in the open mouth, Bai Sensen's teeth reflect the moonlight, which is very cold.
Obviously, they are the natural enemies of jellyfish.
Sui Xiong was shocked, but he quickly calmed down.
He can't do it with a giant whale, can't a group of small fish do it?
Come on, I don't know who eats whom!
