Chapter 192
Chapter 192
The forest is very sultry. Although it is walking on the ground, the speed of the four-legged cheetah is not slow at all. It walks through the dense forest with Fatty on its back as if walking on the ground, except for the unaffected wings. In addition, other members of the Black Crow Clan and Wang Buzzard Clan were stumbling and panting, and some people tripped over branches and vines and fell several times along the way, especially the Wang Buzzard Clan who had no clothes to cover them. All with a little injury.
Yi randomly picked some grass leaves nearby, crushed them and applied the green juice on his body, trying to keep up with the pace of the cheetah, even Yi was sweating all over his body, and applying this grass juice would help cover his body. The scent on them is not easy to be detected by carnivores with sensitive noses in the forest or even the ice flamingos they are looking for.
"You paint some too." Ah Que broke off a handful of grass blades and distributed them to the members of the Wangyi clan.
Although Wang Yu was puzzled, he still took the grass leaves, followed the example of Ah Que and the others, crushed the grass leaves, and wiped his face and body with the grassy green juice. They themselves can't smell the smell of sweat on their bodies anymore, but the smell of grass juice is not good at all, and it makes people feel like vomiting after smelling it for a long time.
Fortunately, this smell is quite refreshing, driving away the fatigue that everyone showed after running for a long time.
Yi's eyes stared at a mountain depression not far away, the distance was still a bit far away, and he couldn't see the specific situation clearly. The cheetah was not impatient, flicked its tail, and lazily raised its head to look at Fatty on its back. Use the tail to encircle Fatty so that the person on the back does not want to get off it from time to time.
The harpies are different from the human-shaped orcs. Their claws are not good at running. If they walk too much on the ground, it will even damage the condition of their claws. Generally, the harpies use their wings to fly.
Although Ah Pang's body has grown quite a bit, this weight is nothing to the cheetah. Even if it is twice as heavy, the cheetah can still carry it.
"Is it right in front?" Ah Que touched Yi's side and asked softly.
Yi nodded, then shook his head again. Dire flamingos are creatures that are active during the day. Although there were not many of them traveling this time, the vegetation near the col was not too tall and dense, and it was easy to see the surrounding situation clearly from the condescending position , Yi observed for a long time before ordering to Ah Que: "You guys rest here for a while, I'll go ahead and have a look."
Ah Que nodded. During this period of time, he followed Yi to go out hunting. Ah Que knew the strength of Yi Yi in human form, not to mention that Yi Yi's beast shape was much larger than their Black Crows. If you can't beat it, you can easily retreat, so Ah Que is not too worried.
The current wing is no longer the cub that had just transformed into a life and death on the North Sea ice sheet and couldn't fly.
"You go with me." Yi said to the lazy cheetah beside him. The cheetah's nose is very useful for accurately finding the hiding place of the ice flamingo, which can greatly save a lot of time.
The cheetah raised its eyelids slightly, glanced at Yi lightly, licked the beard on its lips, and was noncommittal to Yi's proposal.
Yi seemed to know the cheetah's reaction a long time ago. He reached out and hugged Ah Pang off the cheetah's back, "Since you don't want to go, then Ah Pang will follow me."
There was a hint of surprise in Fatty's eyes, "Is it okay?"
Although Ah Fatty has been struggling with Yi since he was a child, Ah Fat sees Yi's strength better than anyone else. I'm afraid that the adult harpy Ah Man may not be Yi's opponent now. Being named by Yi at this moment, Fatty was still a little excited deep in his heart, as if his strength was already strong enough to be recognized by Yi.
"Aww." The cheetah pressed its thick pads on Fatty's paws, and roared threateningly at Wing.
Yi was not afraid of it, and just looked at the cheetah quietly, the meaning in his eyes was obvious, either the cheetah would go with him, or let Ah Pang go with him.
Although Yi's approach is to force the cheetah to work, it is not without careful consideration. Ah Fat has half of the blood of the cheetah in his body. Although he has not fully inherited the ability of the cheetah, Ah Fat's sense of smell is stronger than other orcs. Many, now for them, if they find the Dire Bird earlier, the cubs of the King Buteo Clan will also be able to get out of danger sooner.
According to the big witch hawk, this batch of cub eggs has reached the critical period of shell breaking. Although the time of shell breaking of each cub egg varies to a certain extent, as long as one egg breaks early, it means that The cubs will become the food of the ice flamingos. Yi doesn't want to waste too much time in the process of searching, and he has to go back early. The construction of the river embankment has just begun, and if it continues, there will be no way to repair it when summer comes. finished.
In the end, Cheetah was the first to lose. Fatty felt a little regretful, but he did not insist on walking together.The cheetah licked his side face reassuringly, gave Yi a vicious look, then flicked its tail, and rushed towards the col first.
Yi told the crowd to follow quickly, the cheetah is a good hider, as long as it wants to hide its body shape, even the beast with the most sensitive sense of smell will find it difficult to find its existence.
One person and one leopard easily touched the foot of the mountain. The rocky mountain here is relatively steep, and the mountain wall is covered with green vines and tall shrubs that take root tenaciously from the cracks in the stone. It's a place that looks like the entrance of a stone cave, but it's so hidden that it's hard to see the depth inside.
Yi was very patient, and was not in a hurry to go up the mountain to investigate. The cheetah next to him moved his nose. It bent its body and wagged its tail a few times. Without saying hello to Yi, it suddenly jumped into the grass next to it, and the grass swayed wildly. After a few clicks, the figure of the cheetah quickly disappeared before his eyes.
Yi twitched the corners of his lips. It is certain that the cheetah is not a good partner, and it does not know how to cooperate with people after fighting alone all the year round. Fortunately, Yi just fell in love with the cheetah's sense of smell. With the cheetah around, he can find things. It's much more convenient.
"Short—."
The unique cry of the ice flamingo came from mid-air, the sound was deliberately suppressed, but it was enough to spread a certain distance, Yi hurriedly hid in the bushes on the side, looked up, and saw a hole in the middle of the mountain wall. Two snow-white figures appeared, and the figures deliberately walked around for a certain distance before spreading their wings and flying out.
flamingos.
The two flamingoes merged with their chirping companions in the sky, quickly turned around, and flew away, leaving only a black spot in a few breaths.
Yi waited patiently until the flamingos had completely left his sight, and then got up from the bushes. The cheetah had long since disappeared, but since it was leading the way for Yi, the cheetah still stayed on the road in a humane manner. It left a trace, but it didn't go up the mountain wall where the ice flamingo had appeared on the front wing. However, after going around the whole mountain for more than half a circle, the trace disappeared on a large protruding rock. later.
The surrounding area is quiet, and there are few insects and birds singing in the grass. If you look down from a high altitude, the position of the stone can just block the view, but from the bottom to the top, Yi can clearly see a half-person-high At the entrance of the cave, there are traces of feces of large carnivorous beasts around the entrance. The smell of these feces can prevent most beasts from approaching and prying. Even Wing, if it is not attracted by the cheetah, I am afraid that it is a cave occupied by some carnivore. .
Unless this kind of cave is very hungry and can't find prey, generally no one will desperately want to go in and make trouble.
Yi found the cheetah in a clean grass. The cheetah didn't seem to have the slightest intention of going into the dark cave. It just looked at Yi leisurely like that, as if saying that the place had been found. As for whether to go in or not It's about the wings.
The corner of Yi's mouth twitched. He didn't expect Cheetah to be kind enough to lend a helping hand in the absence of Fatty. He took out a newly made iron knife and touched the entrance of the cave. The space in the entrance of the cave was too narrow. In fact, it is not easy to move the huge beast-shaped ice flamingo, but it is more beneficial to the human-shaped wings.
Originally, Yi had planned to wait for the vision of the ice flamingos to be blocked after dark, but now there is no need to be so cautious, it is too quiet here, it seems that there is no breath of life at all, and Yi does not think that Bing Lie The birds would be willing to live in such a small cave during the day.
Sure enough, I didn't see half of the Direbird when I went all the way in. The light in the cave was very dim, but Yi's eyesight was good, so it wasn't affected by the light at all.
The space inside the cave is very long, and there is a lot of moss growing on the surrounding cave walls, and the ground is covered with thick mud and dust, which looks like it was deliberately pulled into the cave. Judging from the shape of the paw prints, there is no doubt that they are traces left by the ice flamingo.
If you look carefully, there are still a lot of animal bones buried under the surrounding soil and dust, some of which are beast bones, and some are obviously bones of the orc species that belong exclusively to humans. Yi frowned, looking at the bones of those bones. Obviously, it has been quite a while. If this cave has been occupied by flamingos long ago, is this a stronghold of flamingos in the southern land?
This is the territory belonging to the Black Crow Clan. It is separated from the territory of the Harpies by a long distance, and there are layers of mountain peaks in the middle. In the past few years, no matter whether it is the Crow Clan or the Harpy, there have been no reports of cub eggs being stolen.
The loss of Fatty’s cub eggs did not attract the attention of other harpies. Naturally, no one would want to come out to look for it. In front of this mountain pass is a forest occupied by black bears, and behind it is the territory occupied by wild cheetahs. There is a maze that makes the orcs feel uncomfortable. Neither the Crow Clan nor the Harpies will move around here. Even Ah Que's usual patrol route deliberately bypasses this place.
In short, even if the flamingos were swaggering around here, no one would notice them.
Did they choose to settle here on purpose?
Yi walked slowly in, thinking while thinking, he didn't think the ice flamingos would be so smart.
