I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 35 Flight Training

Both of them were slightly startled by Le Nian's sudden appearance. Le Zhi reacted faster and subconsciously smiled and replied, "I made these meat pies. Le Nian, would you like to try one?"

Understanding what Lezhi meant, Leyou also wanted to help Lezhi build good relations with the clansmen, so he gestured forward the meat pie he was holding.

Le Nian was indeed a straightforward person. He came forward to ask, intending to take the opportunity to ask for food. Therefore, he did not pretend to refuse and generously reached out and took one.

"Okay, thanks!"

Before he could finish speaking, the meat pie was already stuffed into his mouth. The aroma alone had made him incredibly tempted; the moment he got the food, he wanted to stuff it in his mouth. Luckily, a sliver of reason kept him going until he thanked the vendor before putting it in. When the meat pie actually entered his mouth, biting through the crispy outer layer released a burst of juicy meat. The perfectly sized pieces of meat were coated in the pinkish flesh of the rock fruit, dissolving almost completely after just a couple of chews. The combination of high fat and protein with carbohydrates created a wonderful sensation that instantly captivated Le Nian's taste buds.

"No~"

He squinted and let out a gasp of amazement, chewing twice before swallowing the first bite of the meat pie. He eagerly stuffed in the second bite, completely speechless, utterly absorbed in the delicious food.

Seeing that Le Nian had won the first prize, the others watching looked on with such longing that they almost pierced through Le Zhi. But there weren't many meat pies left, and it was impossible for the rest of the tribe to get any. Le Zhi and Le You looked at each other for a while and then tacitly chose to play dead.

Fortunately, Le Jing's voice came at that moment. The entire collection team had arrived, and Le Jing told everyone to prepare to set off. Seeing this, Le You quickly stuffed the meat pie she was eating into her mouth. There were still two meat pies left in Ye Zi's bag. Le You wanted to put them away, but Le Nian intercepted them.

"Hey, hey, don't accept these! Can I have these two? Hehe, Leju and the others haven't tried them yet, I want them to have a taste too."

There are some people in the world who, even when making requests, are always so honest and open that no one feels offended. Le Nian is such a person. Le You glanced at Le Zhi questioningly, and after receiving Le Zhi's nod of agreement, he handed the leaf package to Le Nian so that he could take it all with him.

"Here, it's all for you."

"Oh, thank you."

After receiving the leaf bag, Le Nian happily took his spoils to show off to his friends. While the other tribesmen were listening to Le Jing and starting to prepare for the trip, their attention was not completely off Le Zhi and the others. Now, seeing that Le Nian had devoured the last few fragrant meat pies, everyone could only swallow their disappointment and set off with the main group.

Because this gathering was a collective action within the clan, everyone's harvest had to be paid half to the clan, including the cub Lezhi.

Leyou had informed Lezhi of this before the decision to set off, so he was already mentally prepared. The gathering team was going to a place that wasn't far away, just on the edge of Yunmeng Forest, and they would mainly be collecting stone fruits and various ripe fruits.

After the gathering team collectively left the clan's territory, they unfolded their wings and took to the air in an orderly fashion, as instructed by Yue Jing. Yue Zhi observed the positions of everyone in the sky and confirmed that the Lingyu clan members had clearly been trained in flight formations; they all knew exactly what positions to change in the air under what circumstances.

Just as Lezhi was gazing at the formation in the air in thought, Lejing came up to him. "Lezhi, come here."

"Oh well."

Le Jing led them to an open space, where only a handful of clansmen remained who had not yet taken flight.

"Today, besides gathering resources, we also need to train some of our tribesmen in flight skills. Since you're here, you should participate as well."

"Um, but I..."

"I know you don't have wings, but that won't stop you from listening to the lesson. And as for the furball, since it's your transportation partner, it's best if it can also keep up with the formation when flying in the group, so that it can easily deal with any dangers."

Hearing Le Jing's explanation, Le Zhi found he had no grounds for rebuttal. As a member of a group, unity was paramount, a point Le Zhi, having undergone over a decade of education, naturally understood. And it was only natural for Le Jing, as the team leader, to make this demand.

Moreover, Le Jing did this for Le Zhi's sake. Presumably, when he had Mao Qiu bring him over, Le Jing had already seen that Le Zhi didn't shy away from his disabled status, which is why she set an example by treating him without discrimination. After seeing Le Jing take the lead, the tribespeople would feel more natural interacting with Le Zhi, which was exactly what Le Zhi wanted to achieve.

Understanding Yue Jing's implication, Yue Zhi nodded, "Okay, I understand. I will study hard, and I will also try my best to make Maoqiu obedient and cooperative with everyone."

Seeing that Lezhi understood so quickly, a smile flashed in Lejing's eyes. "Okay, let's start now. I'll first tell you about the different transformations of our flight team, and how individuals should cooperate with the team in various situations. You need to know all of this. It's okay if you can't remember it now. After I finish explaining, we'll have a live drill."

As she spoke, Le Jing held a twig in her right hand and roughly drew several formations on the ground, explaining the changes in formations to Le Zhi. Le Zhi, meanwhile, kept her head down, hugging the fur ball in her arms, listening attentively.

"We'll only be practicing these two formations today. Once we're in the air, listen to my commands, understand?"

Throwing away the branch in her hand, Le Jing brought her impromptu lesson to a close. Seeing Le Zhi nod obediently, Le Jing suppressed the smile on her lips.

"Okay, let's begin."

Their impromptu lesson didn't last long. Le Jing only gave Le Zhi a general overview of the concept of formations. Today's main goal was for them to get used to it, so the tribespeople didn't have any objections. You see, it was rare to be able to slack off in a class led by Le Jing, so everyone was quite happy.

When Le Jing called "start," the relaxed atmosphere among everyone present froze for a moment, especially as Le Jing and Mao Qiu took off, and everyone began to be on high alert.

Maoqiu is a clever little guy. He recognized the familiar pattern that the two-legged creature had drawn on the ground almost instantly. Back then, Lechu and the others had used the pattern to cut off its path, so Maoqiu, who holds a grudge, remembered it clearly.

So when Le Jing explained Mao Qiu's position in the group to Le Zhi, Mao Qiu, although unable to speak, actually remembered everything. It just couldn't understand what Le Jing and the others were saying, nor could it understand the hand gestures between the tribe members.

And this is precisely what Lezhi, riding on its back, can make up for. Maoqiu is now very good at understanding Lezhi's words, and with Lezhi's help in relaying them, Maoqiu, even if it is not the best performer in the formation training on the way from the tribe's territory to Yunmeng Forest, is definitely not lagging behind.

The aerial training concluded, and they arrived at their destination, demonstrating Le Jing's exceptional judgment in timing the training. The group landed in the predetermined order, folding their wings. Looking at the furry creature that had cooperated so well with them throughout the journey, the eyes of the tribespeople present flashed with undisguised admiration.
