don't mess with that turtle

Chapter 2
The giant salamander was crying.

He watched helplessly as the turtle swallowed his red carp piece by piece.That's all, beat him after eating the fish!

Turtle son, why is it also in this pond?Wouldn't it be good to beat you to the big lake in the Gobi?It's so big that you can't swim to the end.

The giant salamander was pitiful, and while Su He was not paying attention, he stole a crucian carp and swallowed it quietly.

Su He didn't bother to pay attention to him, and shrank at the bottom of the water without moving.

I'm a little overwhelmed.

The double-quality red carp has a lot of strength, but it can't digest it. He needs a warm and sunny place to sleep well.

If there are no wolves on the shore, just find a shoal and dig a hole, bury yourself in it, and just leave your nostrils to breathe out.The reincarnated tortoise has come here every time he hibernates for the past two years.

Of course, it can also sleep on the bottom of the water like other turtles.

On the first day when the shell was broken, Su He discovered that not only could he breathe through his nose and mouth, he could actually breathe underwater, but it was hard to say where he used it.

butt!

Or is it called the cloaca?It should be this word, Su He's biology is general, not very clear.

The cloaca can not only pee, but also suck in the lake water and absorb the oxygen in the water.But such breathing is very weak, better than nothing.

I don't know if all turtles can do it, or just his species, or because he is a time traveler, something special?

If he chooses to sleep deeply, he can sleep peacefully underwater for six to seven days after he inhales enough air, minimizes his body movements, and breathes through his buttocks.

Su He seldom breathes in this way. At the beginning, he couldn't pass the psychological level, and later he just wasn't used to it.

But not used to it is not impossible.

Holding his breath, Su He dug a cave at the bottom of the pool, and then swam to the surface of the water to toss the wolves to breathe. After sucking in enough air, he sank to the bottom of the water and burrowed into the cave, slowly closing his eyes.

After a while, it fell into silence and fell into a deep sleep.

This pond is not big, only about two acres. There are no natural enemies in the water. There are wolves standing guard outside, not afraid of other predators coming. Su He can sleep peacefully.

But this time he didn't sleep soundly, his whole body was itchy and unbearable, Su He always dreamed of being caught and boiled in a casserole, boiling water bubbling and splashing, licking the tortoise's shell so hot.

After scalding, there were bursts of itching again, and I wished I could peel off the turtle shell and scratch it for fun.

While Su He was tormented alternately by pain and itching, the wolves on the shore became more and more irritable as time passed.

The patience of the wolves is not so bad, but the smell of the demon fruit that permeated the pond faded as Su He fell asleep!

The breathing of the sleeping tortoise became extremely weak.

The wolf king became irritable, and even beat the other wolves three or four times, and forced the wolves to go into the water more than ten times a day, searching back and forth.

The wolves were angry but dared not speak out.

To make matters worse, there were no fish corpses floating in the water these days, and the wolves had nothing to pick up. They needed to hunt, but the wolf king couldn't organize an effective hunt.

It didn't dare to stay away from the pool, and only commanded remotely from the nearby hills, which greatly reduced the hunting effect of the wolves.

The wolves are hungry.

A herd of deer was running, and they glanced at the wolves from time to time. The places with lush water and grass that were once afraid to set foot were now free to come and go. The wolves were suppressed by the wolf king and were not allowed to leave the pond.

These grassy places have become a paradise for deer.

Not far away, a swimming snake just swallowed a frog, and was captured by a goshawk that descended from the sky and flew into the sky.

A faint smell of blood permeated the air.

The hunter is also the prey, and no one can guarantee that he can survive to the next moment.

The peaceful and peaceful days passed day by day.

At the bottom of the pond, Su He felt that he was really going to die this time. He only felt that there was boiling water all around, and the turtle's shell was peeled off layer by layer. It was probably cooked, and the whole turtle sank to the bottom of the pot.

whereabouts…

whereabouts……

Su He woke up suddenly, looked around, he was still in the pond.But the cave where he hid has collapsed, and it was squeezed by him!
Judging from the remaining air in the lungs, this sleep lasted only five or six days.

But Su He had grown from the size of a plate to the size of a washbasin, and the hole he dug earlier couldn't hold him and he was cracked.The body became heavy and sank into the mud, no wonder the dream kept sinking to the bottom of the pot.

All around are peeling pieces of turtle shell.

The tortoise also sheds its shell, but it doesn't burrow out of the shell like a crab and grow a new shell.Instead, it retreats layer by layer.

Sheds about twice a year.

It is a gradual process that molts and grows up at the same time.

But this time, after five or six days of deep sleep, she shed more than one shell.Moreover, the color of the retreated shell has changed, from the gray and ordinary tortoise shell, the color has begun to darken.

Has a tendency to darken.

This is a good thing, buried in the mud can be more concealed.

The Suhe turtle poked its head out quietly, confirmed that there was no danger, and gently moved the water to slowly swim to the surface of the water.

I haven't seen it for a few days, and the water surface of the pond has been covered by lotus leaves. The lotus leaves have not yet grown to their largest size. In five or six days, these green leaves can cover the entire pond.

Then it is ready to bloom, Su He is waiting for the lotus to bloom, it has an appointment with someone.

Lightly flicking his forelimbs and stepping on the water with his back feet, Su He stuck his head out of the water and looked around.

The wolf king was beating two wolves violently, only three were still patrolling the pond, and the rest surrounded the wolf king with bared teeth and threatening sounds.

I don't know whether to threaten the wolf king, or to cheer up and threaten the beaten wolf.

But Su He had a vague feeling that the wolves no longer respect the wolf king so much!I haven't seen the wolf king for five or six days, and his prestige is gone!
Hello wolf king!

Goodbye Wolf King!

The wolf king was attracted by other things, and Su He had already sunk to the bottom of the water after taking a breath, so it realized it, left two beaten wolves in a hurry, and jumped into the pond.

The depth of water in the center of the pond is about two feet, and it is covered by lotus leaves. It is absolutely safe for Su He to dive into the bottom of the water.

The underwater giant salamanders are wandering happily, and they have become much more lively after a few days.

Su He decided to help it consolidate its memory.So he beat it up and snatched two prawns from it.

The dice fell, three points.

Shrimp×8.
Two became eight, and this time it was not triple but cubic.

But still African!Su He wants to improve the quality of prawns.

He casually moved the prawns towards the giant salamander, watching the giant salamander gobble it up in a daze.

It's a pity that the dice has a virgin/virgin complex, and the things that have been thrown by it will not be rolled again if they are taken back, otherwise it can be infinitely looped.

On the surface of the water, the wolf king returned to the shore resentfully, looking at the calm surface of the pool, his gaze became human-like. After a few glances, he turned and ran into the depths of the woods, turning a deaf ear to the barking of the wild wolf behind him.

About two or three hours later, the wolf king came back with a small animal that looked like a cat the size of a mouse, and threw it into the pond with a shake of its head. The wolf king had already frightened the animal, and it slapped its tail and jumped into the pond. , hiding away from the wolf king.

otter?

Su He was startled, then furious.

Your uncle, Otter! !

When did you, a wolf, learn to use tools? !

Otters are definitely the natural enemies of turtles!The response speed is extremely fast, and it is not difficult to hunt tortoises that are bigger than itself.

Small tortoises smashed their shells, while big tortoises plucked flesh from their limbs.

Shrinking into the shell is useless!
brat!Your second uncle's third uncle!You are playing dirty!
This otter is about the size of Su He.

Dangerous!
Su He slammed his limbs and rushed to the surface of the water. When the otter had just escaped from the wolf's mouth and was still panicking, he bit the back of its neck, squeezed it into the water, and dragged it to the bottom of the water.

An otter can only hold its breath for five or six minutes, while Suho can hold its breath for seven days, which is its only advantage.

As soon as he escaped from the wolf's mouth and was suddenly attacked, the otter was suddenly frightened, his body twisted into a twist, he pulled his skin and looked back, struggling, planing and kicking.

I didn't relax a bit because it was a turtle that bit it, the back of the neck was killed, and I couldn't exert my strength at all!
The otter tugged at the fur, scratched Su He's head with its front paws, and kicked Su He's turtle shell like a cat with its back paws, trying to kick him away or tear the shell open.

Su He let it struggle, without realizing that its right hind leg was being torn apart by the otter's claws, and firmly bit its neck to press it into the bottom of the water.Immediately turned over and rode up to press down firmly, claws hooked on the water plants at the bottom of the pond, and did not let go for a moment.
