Chapter 275 Lei Xiu's Plans
Chapter 275 Lei Xiu's Plans
"So, you and Le Ting are now like Le Zhi, becoming partners with birds and beasts, and they will be living with you from now on, right?"
"Yeah, didn't you just hear that?" Why repeat it again? The news was too explosive, so your brain is overloaded? Le You glanced at Le Man, the tension in her heart was relieved a little by the smugness, but only a little.
The forest tremors were becoming increasingly obvious. Their group was now in a precarious situation, facing a survival crisis. At this point, even if he wanted to show off, he wouldn't feel satisfied; instead, it would only add to his frustration.
"Then..." Seeing that Le Man still wanted to ask, Le You could no longer suppress her irritation.
The newly joined bird-beast companion immediately sensed Leyou's mood. Without turning its head, its dark eyes merely shifted slightly before locking onto Leman's figure.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis enveloped him, and Le Man shivered. His innate keen senses allowed him to quickly pinpoint the source of the gaze.
"Um, that..." Le Man swallowed hard, her eyes darting around, avoiding eye contact with the bird. "Le You, why is it staring at me like that? You should ask it..."
"Oh, Hongyan just thinks you're a bit noisy. Just don't talk, it won't do anything to you." Leyou also noticed that the bird had stood up for him, and his heart was filled with joy. He patted the bird's back as he explained to Leman.
Hongyan was the name he gave to his bird and beast companions, and they both liked it very much. Compared to Le Ting's careless Egg Yolk and Le Zhi's joking fluffball, his Hongyan was many times more carefully made.
The reason for choosing this name is that Leyou felt that Hongyan's bright red feathers, as vibrant as a raging fire, were too outstanding. When it moved, it seemed like a ball of fire. This name immediately came to Leyou's mind, and the bird itself also seemed to like the name very much, so it was decided on this name.
The choked Le Man immediately understood who Le You was referring to when he mentioned Red Flame. He realized that Le You was relying on the bird's protection. Le Man was helpless but could do nothing. He could only wrinkle his nose at Le You in dissatisfaction before shutting his mouth in a wronged manner and focusing on his journey. Although Le Man didn't get much information from Le You, the key points were clearly conveyed.
Everyone around who heard Leyou's answer appeared calm on the surface, but their minds were actually racing, especially those who had once planned to tame a bird or beast as a companion, who were given new ideas.
Especially Leman, you know, ever since Lezhi brought Maoqiu back to his tribe, he has been dreaming of when he could have a bird or beast companion.
After many twists and turns, the chieftain and the captain finally reached a conclusion and agreed to let them contact the birds and beasts. However, before these professionals could even touch the birds and beasts, the two little guys, Leyou and Leting, accidentally beat them to it.
It has to be said that life is unpredictable; how can we not call it an unintentional act?
Was their journey to taming their bird and beast companions destined to be fraught with difficulties? Le Man looked up at the sky in silence.
Beside him, his companions, who shared the same thoughts, were also filled with regret.
The tree spirits at the front of the procession didn't hesitate to think about things while they were on their way, while the birds and beasts that joined later were much simpler.
Although there are naturally intelligent birds like the brilliant bird among the birds and beasts, such birds are extremely rare. Most birds are willing to follow their instincts and live their lives according to traditional lifestyles.
Coincidentally, those birds and beasts that refused to follow the rules were basically gathered together by the birds of joy along the way. Their going against their nature to form a colony with the birds of joy is something that birds with normal thought processes wouldn't do.
That's why those two took the initiative to approach Leyou and Leting.
It can only be said that some things in this world are just so unreasonable. Le Man and his friends went to great lengths to get close to birds and beasts, putting in tremendous effort, but they were on the wrong track from the very beginning.
On the contrary, Leyou and his friends stumbled upon the perfect opportunity.
But it's not too late to know now.
Le Zhong, who had also heard the whole story from Lei Xiu, immediately realized that they had gone astray. Unlike Le Man's eagerness, he appeared calm on the surface, but he had already started plotting something in his mind.
As the saying goes, true friendship is revealed in times of adversity. When is the best time to cultivate feelings? Of course, it's when you go through hardships together. Now, with natural disasters raging, isn't that the best time?
Natural disasters are inevitable, but if we can gain some rewards from this unavoidable catastrophe, wouldn't that be an encouragement to everyone?
And this kind of thing needs no further explanation; I believe his teammates are all smart enough to know what to do. As for those who didn't react in time, well, they deserved to be a step behind!
A glint flashed in his eyes, and Le Zhong's lips curled into the signature smile of a devilish instructor. He silently regarded this silent competition as a test, waiting to see who could react the fastest and win.
"The Leshan team leader will probably react quickly after seeing this."
“I know, everyone’s relying on their own abilities. By the way, Lei Xiu?” Le Zhong smiled knowingly, glancing at the expressionless Lei Xiu out of the corner of his eye before quickly turning back to the front. “Did you already consider this, which is why you tacitly allowed that big bird to gather its kind to set off together?”
“That’s one of the reasons.”
"Oh?" Raising an eyebrow in surprise, Le Zhong thought for a moment and quickly realized, "There's still an unseen insect swarm." Le Zhong confirmed.
"Ah."
Lei Xiu maintained an expressionless face, as if he wasn't the one who had brought such a huge shock to Le Zhong.
This idea began to take shape after he saw Lezhi defeat Fanle Bird.
At the time, he was unaware that the Void Resonance was about to arrive. It was only because of his past high position that he had developed a broad perspective and combat awareness, which made him subconsciously extend this matter to its impact on the entire race.
The idea of forming a connection with birds and beasts was not only something Le Chu thought about. Anyone who had seen Le Zhi and Mao Qiu interacting, especially those who had been on the battlefield, could immediately sense the hidden meaning behind it.
Yes, birds and beasts are wild and difficult to tame, large in size and hard to control, but their advantages are also quite obvious.
They are natural insect catchers with great endurance and high flight speed. If properly trained, they would be a tremendous asset on the battlefield.
For thousands of years, the tree spirits had kept to themselves and never considered using birds and beasts to fight. They were shortsighted. The combination of Lezhi and Maoqiu showed them another possibility.
Previously, they only thought about how to painstakingly hunt the insectoids, ignoring the neutral existence of birds and beasts.
Looking back now, why couldn't they have joined forces? After all, they shared the same enemy, and if their interests didn't conflict, they could have cooperated.
So what if we were always respectful to each other? As long as we love each other from now on, that's fine.
Unfortunately, dreams are often grand, but reality often delivers a harsh blow to all dreamers.
The birds and beasts completely ignored them. Even if they tried to approach, most of them would warily avoid them. Some of the more hot-tempered ones would at most fight and then leave without looking back.
The road ahead is long and arduous. Without Lezhi and his companions' accidental discovery, Lechu and his group would have had a long way to go in taming birds and beasts. If Lechu and his group, who are of the same clan as Lezhi, are already struggling so much, then Qinglin and Yuyan are even more powerless to do so.
However, what they didn't know was that if anyone could accomplish this, it would truly be the Spirit Feather Clan.
The Spirit Feather Clan, who excels in nothing and is constantly outshone by their neighbors, is only particularly adept at raising offspring. However, this also demonstrates that they are naturally patient and meticulous.
