Chapter 079 Crazy Tentacles-18
Rustle...
Under Jiang Yan's surprised gaze, the broken tentacle on the chopping board actually crawled, jumped onto its owner Meng Tang, attached itself to the broken end, and merged together in the blink of an eye.
Meng Tang shook the tentacles he had just spliced in front of Jiang Yan, and smiled, "Look, he's back."
Jiang Yan's eyelids twitched. He hesitated to speak, and finally said softly, "Okay, continue cutting vegetables."
…
After dinner, the three children watched TV in the living room, while Jiang Yan was looking at computer documents in the bedroom. The sound of keyboards could be heard in the room.
"What's this?"
Meng Tang came in at some point, leaned close to Jiang Yan's head, stared at the screen and asked.
Jiang Yan found time to reply: "It's not a good idea for those three kids to stay at home all the time, so I plan to find a school for them."
Meng Tang said "Oh", pinched his chin and thought for a while, then his brows relaxed and he showed some joy, obviously he agreed with Jiang Yan's suggestion.
"I think so. At their age, they should study hard."
Jiang Yan continued to search for the school. Suddenly, he paused while moving the mouse, as if he remembered something. "I suddenly realized that you all have the last name Meng. Is there any connection between you?"
Meng Tang was shocked and thought that he might not be discovered.
"Maybe it's a coincidence. Aren't these three kids human? I'm just an octopus. I have nothing to do with them."
"That's right." Jiang Yan thought it made sense.
After a while, the night deepened and the house became quiet.
The children were sleeping in the next room. Jiang Yan covered them with quilts and then returned to the master bedroom.
Meng Tang was already lying on the bed, supporting his head with his hands and looking at Jiang Yan with his body sideways. When he saw someone approaching, he patted the empty bed beside him with his other hand, motioning him to lie down here.
Jiang Yan's expression was a little subtle, and he asked indifferently, "Are all octopus people so shameless?"
Meng Tang smiled and said, "That depends on who you are talking to."
"Forget it. It's better than you wearing someone else's face to contact me."
Jiang Yan said that he was referring to the time when Mengtang Women's Clothing approached him in the beginning.
"But why do I feel like you like me wearing women's clothes?" Meng Tang raised his eyebrows, and suddenly stretched out a tentacle towards Jiang Yan, gently hooking Jiang Yan's slender wrist and leading her to the bed, "Baby, don't stand still, come and sleep."
Jiang Yan was helpless. He didn't know why he accepted this guy's existence.
Maybe it was the boss's assignment, he needed to play the role of an ordinary person who was in love.
But the object of his love affair is not a human. What if this guy betrays him in the end and exposes him among the monster tribe? Wouldn’t that be a loss?
Jiang Yan took off his coat and lay down next to Meng Tang.
"You didn't tell anyone about what happened between us, right?" Jiang Yan pinched the bed sheet and asked after thinking for a long time.
Meng Tang stared at the pretty face so close to him, and asked during his heartbeat, "What's the matter?"
"You didn't tell your monster friends about my true identity, did you?"
Meng Tang was full of doubts, "What is your true identity?"
Jiang Yan said directly, "Don't play dumb. There was a haunted apartment before, and I went there as an exorcist. You should have known my true identity by then."
Meng Tang said "Oh" calmly.
Under the moonlight coming in through the window, Jiang Yan's eyelashes trembled a few times, her pink lips opened and closed, and a pleasant sound came out of her throat, "But there is one thing I don't understand, since you know my true identity, why do you still stay by my side? Aren't you afraid that I will capture you after I find out that you are a monster?"
"You only catch bad guys. I'm good, so you won't catch me." Meng Tang said without any guilt, wearing the "good guy card" he awarded himself.
Jiang Yan said nothing and closed his eyes.
The air suddenly became silent.
Meng Tang: “???” Why isn’t my wife talking?
When I turned around, I found Jiang Yan was asleep.
Meng Tang suddenly stood up, stretched his head out and looked down at the people below, as if he was appreciating a piece of art.
The small tentacles on its body were aroused and began to move.
"You're blocking my view."
Meng Tang waved away the tentacles blocking his eyes and licked his lips.
The little tentacles drooped pitifully as if they were dying.
Unconsciously, as the night grew darker, the moon outside the window became rounder and rounder.
There is a full moon tonight.
This means that…
The ocean in the distance suddenly became turbulent, and the originally calm sea surface was out of control, and waves were rising. It seemed that some creature was about to emerge from under the sea. After a moment, a large pile of flesh-pink sticky things emerged from the sea and were slowly crawling towards the shore.
“Hiss…”
“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”
These things are communicating in the language of race.
Translated, it roughly means:
"It's a full moon, why hasn't my son come back yet?"
"Isn't he unable to survive the estrus period?"
"No, my son went out to find a partner this time. He might have already had a baby."
The octopus king brushed his beard with his tentacles, pondered for a while, turned his head and looked at his beautiful octopus wife, "Then should we go find him?"
The octopus wife blew out a transparent bubble and replied gently: "Since you are out now, go and have a look. And by the way, check on the second, third, and fourth children."
"Maybe." The Octopus King listened to his wife's words. He raised a tentacle and waved it in the air, signaling the octopus guards who came out of the water with him to follow.
…
“It’s hot… so hot…”
The tentacles on his body began to move uncontrollably, but this time Meng Tang did not have the extra strength to stop them.
Because the problem this time was with him.
Oops, the moon is full tonight.
Before the full moon night, adult octopuses that have not yet had a partner will show different estrus states.
The adult life of an octopus is 120 years old, so Mengtang’s younger brothers are not yet adults according to the age of octopuses, so there is no need to consider their estrus period for the time being.
But Mengtang is over 120 years old this year. Today is his first full moon night since adulthood, which is also his first estrus period.
Because he had grown up, Mengtang needed a partner. His father and mother initially wanted to introduce him to an octopus sister from the same tribe, but he refused. So they let him go out to sea to find another one he liked.
And the object of this affection is ginger salt.
It’s a pity that the progress is a bit slow.
Meng Tang was not a beast who liked to force people, so he would not take advantage of others' misfortune. He had to secretly suppress the restlessness in his heart, turned over and got out of bed, and curled up in the corner.
About ten minutes later, Jiang Yan suddenly woke up.
His forehead was covered with sweat and his eyes were staring at the ceiling in a daze.
He had a nightmare.
I dreamed that I was eaten by a giant octopus.
Of course, there must be some basis for having this kind of dream.
Jiang Yan subconsciously felt around him and found it was empty.
Hmm? Where's Meng Tang? Isn't he sleeping next to me?
After regaining consciousness a little, Jiang Yan stood up and looked around the room, and finally found an unidentified object twisting in a corner.
"Meng...Mengtang?"
Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes.
An unbearable groan came from the corner, as if someone was sick.
Jiang Yan got out of bed and walked over. "Are you sick? Why didn't you tell me?"
In the dim room, Jiang Yan touched the person wrapped in tentacles with his hand. As soon as his fingertips touched the tentacle skin, he suddenly pulled back as if burning.
So hot.
Do you have a fever?
"I'll get a basin of cold water."
Jiang Yan left this sentence and was about to leave the room when his ankle was suddenly wrapped by a hot tentacle.
"Please bear with it for a while and let me go out for a while."
Jiang Yan thought Meng Tang was confused due to illness, so he patiently explained.
Then another tentacle came and wrapped around his ankle, not only preventing him from moving, but also dragging him little by little into the house.
Jiang Yan sighed and could only walk back to the curled-up Meng Tang and lean over slightly, "What's wrong?"
After a while, there was a slight movement from the pink meat lump, "I won't let you leave."
"Okay, I won't leave." Jiang Yan agreed with him, but frowned, "But if I don't leave, how can I treat you?"
"You have a fever. You need cold compresses and medicine."
"It's not a fever."
A sticky, slightly coquettish sound came vaguely from the lump of meat.
Jiang Yan was silent for a while, "What is that?"
"I&#@&#@."
Jiang Yan frowned even deeper, "What are you talking about?"
The lump of meat, which was so hot that it was about to turn into an octopus ball, didn't say anything. Instead, it swung out several tentacles and dragged the ginger salt into its pink body bit by bit.
"Um...what are you doing?"
A hot voice came to my ear, "Fuck...you?"
…
Jiang Yan slept until noon and was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
Jiang Yan said in a daze.
It would be fine if he didn't move, but as soon as he moved his back and waist would ache, as if all his bones would be broken in the next second.
"Hiss..." It hurts, what's going on.
Jiang Yan bit his lip and opened his eyes with some difficulty. A beam of strong sunlight pierced his eyeballs. He raised his hand to block it, but his pupils suddenly dilated in an instant.
I saw a few red marks on his fair arms. The marks didn't hurt, but the bones under the skin were sore, as if someone had pressed on them all night.
"Wife... ignore them... and sleep a little longer."
A low and hoarse voice came from his ear, and Jiang Yan realized that a pair of hands were on his waist. He tilted his head slightly, and a handsome face close to him magnified in his retina.
The other person was still asleep, and a little sleepwalking, and actually stretched his neck, and under his horrified gaze, he leaned over and kissed him, and said in an extremely doting tone: "You're tired all night, go back to sleep."
Jiang Yan sensed something was wrong and suddenly lifted the quilt off his body. He looked carefully, was silent for a second, and then quietly covered himself with the quilt again.
Why is he naked? ! !
No, why are they both naked? ! !
Is it because I'm opening my eyes the wrong way?
Jiang Yan took a deep breath and then lifted the quilt.
Hmm...still bald.
Three seconds later, the quilt was suddenly covered by the person next to him, "Oh, my wife is cold."
Jiang Yan's pupils were shocked, and he slapped Meng Tang to wake him up from his sleep.
Meng Tang fell to the cold floor with a bang and woke up instantly. He looked at the handsome young man on the bed with a confused expression, wondering "Who am I?", "Where am I?" and "What am I doing?"
"What on earth happened yesterday?!"
Jiang Yan's shoulders trembled, and he said this almost through gritted teeth.
Meng Tang sat on the floor, like a child who had made a mistake, with his head lowered. He pointed at his fingers and said weakly, "It's just what you think..."
A question mark popped up on Jiang Yan's head, "Speak human language!"
Meng Tang raised her head shyly, "Do you really want me to describe the specific process?"
Jiang Yan vaguely guessed something, but his reason made him unable to accept it. He hesitated for a while before saying, "You say."
Meng Tang's ears turned red. "I was on top... and you were on the bottom... because you cried out in pain... I only put one tentacle in... and then..."
"Stop!" Jiang Yan said angrily, "That's enough!"
“Do you know that you are like this...are…” Jiang Yan hesitated to speak. He didn’t know how to describe it.
He is in a complicated mood now.
Meng Tang carefully looked at the expression on Jiang Yan's face and said seriously, "I will be responsible for you."
Jiang Yan's throat choked, "That's not what I meant!"
Meng Tang thought that Jiang Yan was human dignity, so he tentatively asked, "Then I'll let you be on top next time?"
Jiang Yan: “…” This is unreasonable.
"Hey, wife, aren't you going to sleep?" Meng Tang shouted hurriedly when he saw Jiang Yan was about to get out of bed.
Jiang Yan said coldly, "Why are you still sleeping? What's there to sleep for?"
Meng Tang lowered his head and said, "You can sleep with me. Only let your wife sleep with me. I think I...sleep pretty well."
Jiang Yan almost rolled his eyes. He supported his waist and slowly got out of bed. He took a few steps, paused, and said, "Just treat it as an accident last night."
"oh."
After leaving the room and coming to the living room, Jiang Yan discovered that there were several strangers in the house.
A middle-aged couple who looked like a couple were sitting on the sofa. Also sitting on the same row of sofas were Meng Xiaolu and three other children. Behind the sofas stood three people in black clothes, black pants and black sunglasses.
Jiang Yan paused and raised his eyelids, "Is he kidnapped?"
"Hello, we are Mengtang's parents."
Just now Meng Xiaolu had told her parents the whole story. Octopus' parents looked at the handsome young man in front of them with a smile.
"Ah?" Jiang Yan was a little surprised, but the two people in front of him did look very similar to Meng Tang.
Wait, let’s take a closer look.
Jiang Yan suddenly felt that the five people on the sofa looked very similar.
"I'm sorry, brother Jiang Yan, we lied to you." Meng Xiaolu knew that her elder brother Meng Tang had already made it clear, so she no longer concealed the truth and confessed, "In fact, the three of us are all Meng Tang's younger brothers."
"So you guys too?"
"Yes, we are all octopuses."
Jiang Yan's eyebrows twitched twice, "What exactly are you doing this for?"
"Big brother really likes you." Meng Xiaolu explained, "But big brother is not good at speaking, so we have to help him. Sorry, brother Jiang Yan, we didn't mean to hide it."
"Child, come here for a moment."
The woman nodded at Jiang Yan, who was silent for a moment and walked over.
"The children in our family are quite naughty." The woman held Jiang Yan's hand and said with a smile, "If my eldest son does anything bad to you, you can tell us and we will help you teach him a lesson."
"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, Xiaolu just told me some of your stories." The woman said, "From my perspective as a mother, Xiaotang really likes you."
"Before Xiaotang went to sea, his father and I introduced him to many partners, but he didn't even look at them. Until one day, he told me that he already had someone he liked in his heart."
"We octopuses have always been intermarried, because on the wedding day, the partners will exchange tentacles, and then use the partner's tentacles to implant their own bodies, thus forming a specific contract. Therefore, our octopus partners will only have each other for a lifetime."
"Although we have many tentacles, each one is extremely precious. Once we lose a tentacle, our body will become very weak. Therefore, when octopuses marry within the same species and exchange tentacles, it not only serves as a token of trust, but also does no harm to both parties physically and mentally."
"But Xiaotang likes you as a human, which means he gave up a tentacle."
Jiang Yan listened quietly, seeming to understand but not quite.
"To put it simply, once our clan falls in love with a human, it means that he has given up his original demon identity and chosen to become an ordinary person." The woman said patiently, "Unless he refuses to give up his tentacles. If that is the case, then he does not love you."
Jiang Yan understood, but felt that there was a little logical loophole, "If losing the tentacles is so terrible, then if someone else cuts off the octopus' tentacles, wouldn't that be even more miserable?"
The woman shook her head. "No, if you lose a tentacle by force, it can grow back. Only if you voluntarily give it up, it won't grow back."
"Of course, for us demons, the ordinary octopuses in the seafood market have nothing to do with us." The woman smiled, "Do you understand now?"
Jiang Yan nodded. "Then I think you should stop your son from liking me. If he really falls in love with me, he will become an ordinary person."
"It's okay, we have many cubs." The Octopus King on the side suddenly said.
Jiang Yan: "..." That makes sense. This way, we don't have to worry about the issue of succession.
"Hey, Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
At this time, Meng Tang came out of the room. He looked at everyone in the living room with a puzzled look on his face.
Why does it feel like a large parent-teacher meeting?
Although the living room was full of his people, he was still inexplicably nervous. What should he do?
Meng Tang's heart was pounding and he was a little panicked.
It seems like my wife knows everything.
"Come here, son, come here."
Hearing his mother calling him, Meng Tang walked over with trembling steps.
The Octopus King was suspicious of Meng Tang's trembling movements. Combined with what Meng Xiaolu had said before, "Brother and sister-in-law had already done it last night," he frowned and felt something was wrong.
What?! Is my son the one below?!
After all, it’s okay that my son likes a human being, especially a male, so he does need to be distinguished.
The Octopus King stroked his beard, feeling a little annoyed.
The Octopus Princess was completely unaware and only put Jiang Yan's hand and Meng Tang's hand together. "Xiao Yan, my eldest son is a little silly, but he is still a good person. Although the relationship among us octopuses is one-to-one, I don't know the rules of you humans. If you really don't like my son, it's not impossible to take him as a concubine."
Meng Tang: “……?”
Jiang Yan glanced at the frozen people around him and cleared his throat, "But I have no plans to get married yet, and we homosexuals can't get married."
"It's the 4202nd century, and there are still so many regulations?" Princess Octopus was puzzled.
Jiang Yan nodded, "I don't have any plans to get married yet."
The Octopus Princess cast her eyes on Jiang Yan's belly. "For us octopuses, it's OK to get pregnant first and then get married."
As soon as the voice fell, the Octopus King could no longer sit still, and leaned out to whisper to his wife, "Something is wrong, our son seems to be the one below."
"What?!!"
