Chapter 61: Bird Language

After a while, Xu Shaoqiang also slowly woke up.

There was no food left for the two of them, so there was no need to talk about breakfast.

Demolishing the shelter and extinguishing the fire, Tong Chen took Xu Shaoqiang and continued on the road.

"Big brother, you see there's a chicken there", suddenly Xu Shaoqiang stretched out his hand and pointed to a place and said.

Tong Chen looked at it, what kind of chicken is this? but a pheasant all the time, with gray feathers, it seems to be a female, and this pheasant has been walking there with its paws to forage for food.

"Let's take a closer look", Tong Chen and Xu Shaoqiang slowly began to feel close to the place where the pheasant was.

After walking for a while, the pheasant quickly discovered the existence of Tong Chen and the others, flapped his wings and accelerated his pace to flee to the side, but he did not fly as usual.

Tong Chen also discovered the anomaly of this pheasant, and he saw that one of the wings of this pheasant seemed to be damaged to a certain extent, resulting in it not being able to fly.

Tong Chen hurriedly followed after him, this is a good thing for him, if he can catch this injured pheasant, then he can have a good meal.

After Xu Shaoqiang saw all this, he also followed with great interest.

But Tong Chen still underestimated the speed of this pheasant, even if one of its wings was injured, it still jumped and jumped fast, and Tong Chen, who had been hungry for a few days, had already been weak all over, and he felt like his legs were filled with lead without running a few steps, and he couldn't breathe.

"Big brother, let's chase after it, that chicken is running away", Xu Shaoqiang chased after him and said.

You don't look at my brother's situation.,That's no strength at all.,You think I don't want to catch up.,If it's in normal times, I'll definitely be able to catch it.。

"No, I'm bored, I can't catch up", Tong Chen waved his hand again and again.

"I'm still strong, then I'll chase it, I will definitely catch that chicken, when I am at home, the chicken is often caught", Xu Shaoqiang looked high-spirited, and chased after him after speaking.

That's not a chicken, you have to be a chicken, the chicken is **, Tong Chen sat on the ground and panted.

It didn't take long for Xu Shaoqiang to come back with nothing in his hand.

"Shaoqiang, didn't catch it, did you? That pheasant ran very fast, it ran away", Tong Chen was afraid that Xu Shaoqiang would be disappointed and comforted.

Xu Shaoqiang shook his head, his expression was slightly strange: "No, the chicken ran away, I didn't catch up, there are many birds in front."

The chickens ran away, and a lot of birds appeared, and Tong Chen didn't understand it for a while.

"What do you mean?

"There are a lot of birds floating in the sky, no, big brother, come with me to take a look", Xu Shaoqiang didn't say why.

Tong Chen followed Xu Shaoqiang for a while and came to the so-called place where "there are many birds floating".

Standing from a distance, it does look like some birds floating in the air, but as Tong Chen gets closer and closer, his heartbeat is also beating faster and faster.

Looking at the scene he didn't want to see, Tong Chen was very irritable and uncomfortable.

It was a long net between several sticks, four or five meters wide, transparent and white, and if there was nothing in this net, it would not be possible to detect the existence of this net unless it was approached.

Tong Chen has seen similar things on the news before, poachers buy cheap bird nets, use it and then catch a large number of birds, this kind of net has a characteristic, that is, birds do not notice that once they fly, they will be immediately glued, and the more they struggle, the stronger they become, unless a few birds are lucky, or due to the long time the effect of bird nets is reduced, they may escape from the clutches, but these birds will also be injured to varying degrees, such as the pheasant that Tong Chen saw before.

If the captured birds cannot be rescued in time, they will die one after another in a day or two, and the purpose of the poachers, according to Tong Chen's understanding, should be sold to some farmhouses or restaurants, as a specialty, so that they can be sold for a high price.

In addition, what is the purpose, Tong Chen is not very clear.

I saw that in this bird-catching net, there were some birds stuck in different areas, there were many sparrows, as well as woodpeckers, turtle doves, owls, etc., most of them had died with their heads tilted and slanted, and some were struggling and screaming miserably.

Although Tong Chen is hungry, he will catch a few birds to eat, but that is to maintain his own life, he will not use it to make profits, and he has never thought that Tong Chen does not feel that he is a benevolent person, but he is a person who respects life, and he is uncomfortable to see so many innocent birds dying here.

"Did the birds get killed by this net?" , Xu Shaoqiang said.

Tong Chen didn't speak.

"Who laid the net, and why did they kill so many birds?, did they do anything wrong?";

Sluggish for a moment, Xu Shaoqiang continued: "Isn't it often said that birds are people's good friends, they eat pests?"

"Some greedy human beings, few strong, remember not to take some crooked paths in the future, behave uprightly, otherwise harm others and end up harming yourself."

Next, Tong Chen did something that he personally thought was easy, and he carefully untied the birds from the bird nets one by one.

The dead were stacked together, and the injured ones were rescued and temporarily let Xu Shaoqiang hold them in his arms, and rescued a woodpecker, an owl and two sparrows one after another.

As for why these injured birds were not released directly into the wild, because Tong Chen knew that doing so would undoubtedly directly announce the death date of these birds, after they were injured, their flight was greatly hindered, and food became the biggest problem, if there was no food, it would be equivalent to death.

After getting all the birds down, Tong Chen also dismantled all the bird nets and burned all the fires, and when he did this, he was still like in his heart, what should he do if the poacher came? What should he do if there was a conflict? Simply, things did not develop as Tong Chen imagined.

"Big brother, are we going to eat these dead birds?", Xu Shaoqiang touched his stomach and said.

Tong Chen pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Forget it, we have walked out of the wilderness and will be able to go home soon."

At this moment, even if Tong Chen is very hungry, he has no appetite to eat these birds, but fortunately, he can complete the task today, it doesn't matter if he eats or not, if there is still a long time before the task is completed, whether to eat or not to eat will have to be reconsidered.

Tong Chen dug a pit and buried all the dead birds in it, and the two injured sparrows he also let go of himself, he didn't have the time and energy to take care of so many injured birds, so he could only give up the two common sparrows, it was good to be able to take care of the two more precious birds.

Fortunately, the survivability of sparrows is not weak, and whether they can survive or not depends on their luck.

Not long after that, a large area of farmland appeared in front of him, and Tong Chen was completely relieved that the task was finally completed again.

Task completed, task evaluation (fail).

Damn, I still fail, when will I pass, even if people can't be an honor student, they don't want to be an errand student every time!
