Chapter 19: The Truth
I saw that on the ground inside the basket, there was a feather and a few drops of blood.
I can imagine with my toes that a bird must have just died here.
It seems that the bird is missing, and sure enough, it did not fly away, but was killed and eaten.
Su Jing's first thought was cats, because cats like to catch small animals such as mice and birds, and then hide and eat them.
"I'll have to find out who is so greedy, or the rest of the birds will be in danger. ”
Su Jing glanced at the little civet cat and other animals playing around, quietly watered the vines, and then went back to the house, but hid behind the window, watching every move in the backyard.
I have to say that it is quite interesting to occasionally observe small animals secretly like this, and when there is no owner around, many animals will be unscrupulous, naughty and cute.
Of course, Su Jing focused on observing the birds, only to see them happily flying around on the branches, sometimes flying over the yard, sometimes flying back, and when they flew over the heads of the two little raccoon cats, both raccoon cats jumped up one after another, stretched out their claws to catch the birds.
Su Jing narrowed her eyes, thinking to herself, is the murderer a raccoon cat?
I saw that the two raccoon cats jumped up a meter high, and their athletic ability was much stronger than that of ordinary cats, just like two clouded leopards, but they were still small after all, lacked hunting experience, and failed to grasp the timing, not only failed to catch the flexible bird, but also lost their balance in mid-air, and was so frightened that they meowed, but the cat's air balance ability was not covered after all, and it suddenly flipped in mid-air and fell steadily to the ground.
"Looks like these two little guys can't catch the birds, they didn't do it. ”
Su Jing continued to observe, only to see that this group of birds seemed to be completely idle, almost flew all over every corner of the yard, from dogs, parrots, and golden eagles flew by, because the golden eagle got Su Jing's lesson, and did not hurt the birds, but it seemed that watching the birds was a little annoying, spread their wings and flew into the sky, instantly turned into a black spot, Su Jing was not worried about this, the golden eagle will fly out to play every day, but will always come back.
Su Jing was a little puzzled, cats, dogs, golden eagles, parrots, etc. don't look like murderers who eat birds, are they alien animals?
At this moment, this group of small birds flew over the vines, and Su Jing didn't pay much attention to it, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the vines like a spirit snake, and suddenly shot out, and the next moment a small bird that fell behind was caught and dragged into the basket.
"Damn, it's the murderer?"
Su Jing was stunned for a moment, then rushed out quickly and ran to the side of the vine.
Looking down, I saw that the vines were tied to the bird, like a python, the tighter and tighter it was, and it also secreted a kind of mucus, which stuck to the bird, and at the same time, in the soil of the roots, several roots stretched out, like a few hands, to welcome the bird.
"Nima, is this a man-eating tree?"
Su Jing suddenly reached out and grabbed the vine that bound the bird, and then broke it open.
He felt that the power of the vine binding was quite large, and the mucus actually had a certain anesthetic effect, which made Su Jing's hands a little numb, and the little bird was tied, so it was basically impossible to have a chance to struggle. Of course, it is limited to small animals, and it is estimated that kittens, dogs, etc., are not difficult to break away.
I don't know if I felt Su Jing's power, the vines quickly retracted, and the roots of the trees below also burrowed back into the soil, and the whole tree was motionless, looking like an ordinary plant.
"This tree can still disguise, and it is also a guy who bullies the weak and fears the hard, me, the kitten, the puppy, the golden eagle and even the parrot fly by, and it does not move, only when the bird flies by, it attacks. ”
Su Jing didn't have time to sigh, so he quickly wiped the mucus on his hands and the bird's body, checked the bird's injury, and found that it didn't seem to have broken bones, but it was bleeding from its mouth and dying, it was estimated that it was strangled and injured its internal organs, and it would definitely not survive if it wasn't treated.
Su Jing hurriedly took out a piece of Warcraft meat, tore it into very small threads, and stuffed it into the bird's mouth, the bird swallowed the Warcraft meat with difficulty, but every time he swallowed a trace, he recovered a trace of strength, and in the end, he had recovered a trace of spirit and was able to make a cry, but he couldn't stand up for the time being.
Su Jing fed the bird with the meat of the monster, then found the nest in the loquat tree they had built and put it on it. The other birds didn't wait for Su Jing to walk away, and flew down directly, chattering around the injured birds.
"What should I do with this man-eating tree?"
Su Jing returned to the side of the cannibal tree, holding his cheeks and looking at the plant that was motionless and pretending to be innocent.
In fact, there are many carnivorous plants on the earth, such as man-eating flowers, pitcher plants, yellow civet algae, and ear digging plants, but they mainly rely on their taste to attract small insects, and then stick or rely on shrinkage to wrap their prey, like the vine in front of them directly stretched out to catch, absolutely nothing.
There is no doubt that this vine must be from the One Piece world.
In the One Piece world, such plants are not uncommon, especially in the Boeing Islands, which have honed Usopp for two years, the entire island is full of carnivorous plants, and this huge island itself, that is, a man-eating flower, ordinary people on this island will not live for a day, and they will definitely be eaten by plants and become nutrients for plants. After being trained, Usopp even directly used various carnivorous plant seeds as super weapons.
However, this man-eating tree is magical, but it feels really useless, and it has to be prevented from eating small animals, and now it can only eat birds, but when it grows up, it is estimated that it will have to eat cats, dogs, and even people.
"Or can we wait for it to grow up and use its seeds as weapons?"
Su Jing didn't know if the seeds of this man-eating tree could be shot out like the ones used by Usopp and directly turned into a tree to tie up the enemy, but even if it could, it couldn't be used indiscriminately, how shocking it was.
Su Jing thought about it, but he couldn't think of the use of keeping this man-eating tree, but he was still reluctant to kill it, firstly, he planted it himself, and secondly, it was a pity that such a magical plant died.
Su Jing decided to keep it, but he had to guard against it, and he couldn't let it kill other animals indiscriminately, so after thinking about it, he went to get a lot of miscellaneous fish and threw two of them to the root of the man-eating tree. In a moment, several roots of the man-eating tree stretched out, caught the two fish, and dragged them under the dirt.
Su Jing whistled, and the golden eagle flew down from the sky.
"In the future, you will be responsible for throwing a few fish here every day, understand?" Su Jing used both his mouth and hand to teach the golden eagle, I have to say that after the golden eagle ate the meat of the monster, it became more and more intelligent, Su Jing only taught it a few times, it understood, grabbed a fish, flew over the cannibal tree, and accurately threw the fish into the basket, it seemed to know that this cannibal tree was not a good kind, and it was not easy to approach.
"Really sensible. Su Jing touched the golden eagle's head and rewarded it with a large piece of demonic beast meat.
