Introduction of Big Nine-segmented Shrimp

According to legend, the nine-segment shrimp is very seasonal. After it comes into contact with water, it will spit out secretions, causing itself to die, so that people who like to taste it cannot get involved. It is quite heroic and brave, "It is better to die than to live in disgrace." Therefore, shrimp farmers must change the water frequently to wash away the secretions to prevent it from "committing suicide." The nine-segment shrimp that cannot "commit suicide" will eventually die from "homicide" when it is grandly listed in August in midsummer. Most of those who kill it are Cantonese people who advocate "food is the heaven for the people." How can we miss the delicious food? What's more, the nine-segment shrimp grows on the coast of Guangdong. If we turn a blind eye to it, it will be a real waste of natural resources. Therefore, the trend of eating nine-segment shrimp is the most popular in Guangdong.
