Chapter 102: Pumice River
Originally, Fengyun had already prepared for the worst, and if it really didn't work, he would wait until it was dark before leaving.
Although bare-necked are fierce and bloodthirsty, they are difficult to deal with, but they also have a very big weakness, that is, their night vision is very poor.
When night falls, they are basically blind, and everything that is close to them, they are hard to see.
This is the most important reason why the ancestors included the Scarlet Mountain in the route.
Waiting until after dark, and then climbing over the Scarlet Mountain, it will be much safer than passing through other places.
Fengyun had already rushed to the Scarlet Mountain quickly with the help of his bare neck before, saving a lot of time, even if it dragged on until the evening, compared to him relying on his own feet to rush to the Scarlet Mountain, it was still a lot faster.
However, if there was a way to climb the Scarlet Mountain faster, he was still unwilling to wait any longer.
It's just that the plan he's going to carry out is a bit risky, but in order to save time, he decides to take the risk.
Little by little, he began to move his body towards the two fighting chicks.
The nest where he was now was located was relatively remote, and with the fact that fights with young birds were common, the bare necks of those who hatched eggs did not pay much attention.
In addition, the attention of the two young birds is focused on each other, and there is no time to pay attention to the others.
The wind and clouds increased the speed of movement.
Once the smaller baby bird was actually pushed out of the nest, his plans would be ruined.
As the smaller young bird was forced out of its nest and near the edge of the mountain, Fengyun finally approached and came to a desirable position.
The young bird let out a wail, as if begging the larger young bird to let it go, but the large young bird was unmoved.
On the contrary, its attacks became more violent, and it was in a position to put it to death.
The young bird was finally avoided in a desperate situation, and one foot was empty.
It flapped its wings desperately, trying to keep its balance and even fly back to the peak, but it was too small for the wings to do anything.
It was at this moment that Fengyun took action, deliberately emitting a faint birdsong, fluttering, and sending an artificial wing to the young bird.
The young bird is like a drowning man who has found a life-saving straw and immediately grabbed it.
In the next moment, a look of astonishment appeared in its eyes.
Originally, it thought that by grabbing Fengyun's wings, it would be able to stabilize its body and temporarily get rid of the threat of death, but it never expected that after it grabbed Fengyun's wings, it didn't get a trace of borrowing.
As soon as its claws touched Fengyun's wings, it slid towards it on its own before it could exert its strength.
What made it even more unexpected was that later, it hit its claws and pushed it out of the mountain.
The young bird let out a desperate cry and fell down the steep cliff.
Along with it is the Wind Cloud.
That's what Fengyun thought of.
Create an illusion as if his fall was due to the pulling of young birds.
This way it will not attract the attention of the bare necks who are being burdened, who will only think that it was an accident and will not think that he is taking the opportunity to escape.
In order to perform more likely, Fengyun kept struggling and flapping his wings in the process of falling.
In fact, in addition to confusing the bare necks, he also had a purpose, which was to cover some of his small movements.
The Scarlet Mountain is indeed very high, and if he doesn't do anything and falls directly from it, he will inevitably be injured with his physical strength.
When he fluttered his wings, he could not only cover up the cliff wall and slow down his fall, but also prevent him from being blown directly into the cliff by the strong wind.
After a while, the wind and clouds finally fell under the cliff.
The hapless young bird had fallen to the bottom of the cliff long before he did, and had fallen to his death.
Fengyun took a look and found that there were many dead young birds at the bottom of the cliff, some were still fresh, the blood stains had not dried up, and some had only some bones left.
He wasn't surprised by this.
Birds, especially some birds of prey, have the tendency to encourage their offspring to fight each other, and only the one that survives the fight will wait for the parents to feed them wholeheartedly.
The bare neck is a bird of prey among raptors, and it is not surprising that it has this trait.
Fengyun quickly looked away from the dead young bird and began to look at his surroundings, and he realized that he had made the right choice.
In addition to successfully confusing the bare necks, the bottom of the cliff is inwardly concave, which belongs to the blind spot of the field of vision, and the bare neck on the top of the mountain does not fly up, deliberately searching for the situation under the cliff, and he cannot be seen.
Even if he had a bare neck flying, there were many large rocks under the cliff, which could be used for him to hide from their gaze.
Fengyun found a large rock, hid behind it, and untied the artificial wings.
It's a pity that it has some damage, and when he grabbed him with his bare neck, his claws were torn, but the damage is not too serious, and it should still be able to be used.
He folded his artificial wings and carried them behind his back, and with the help of the boulder's cover, he quickly moved away from the blood-colored mountain.
When he rushed into a dense wood, his hanging heart finally relaxed.
Although the eyesight of the bare neck is poor at night, it is very good during the day, and once they are discovered, it is troublesome.
In the woods, Fengyun just took a short rest, recalled the road map, and then set out on the journey again.
According to Wu, the ancestral land is more than three thousand miles away from Razor.
After all these years of promotion, the weights and measures that Fengyun made have been accepted by everyone in the tribe.
He hasn't even finished a quarter of the way yet, and he has a long way to go.
I don't know if it was Fengyun's luck, or the route chosen by the ancestor of the Flame Snake Tribe, I didn't encounter any dangerous brute beasts on the way, and I came to the Pumice River smoothly.
The Pumice River is a very wide and large river.
Fengyun looked up and down, and after a visual inspection, the narrowest place was more than 1,000 zhang, and the wide place should be about 1,500 zhang.
As for whether the rest of the place was the same, he didn't know, at least in his field of vision.
Not only is the Pumice River wide, but the current is also quite turbulent and rattling.
Fengyun thought about it, chose a big tree, jumped up, climbed to the treetops, put his hand on the pergola, urged the eye of the snake god, and looked farther up and down the pumice river.
He was very disappointed in the result, and he did not see any narrower part of the Pumice River.
Jumping from the tree, Fengyun decided to give up the search and cross the river directly.
After he urged the Eye of the Serpent God, he could see very far, and even if he was out of his field of vision, it would take a lot of time to find a more suitable crossing point and rush over.
In addition, if you run so far, you will deviate greatly from the road map, and you may get lost.
Fengyun focused on the surface of the river, wanting to see if there was anything he could borrow.
Unfortunately, no.
On the wide surface of the river, there was nothing but muddy water, not even wood floating down the river upstream.
Looking around, he walked over to a large dead tree, kicked it, and the trunk shattered into many small pieces.
They appear unconventional, not only in size, but also in shape.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that he had kicked it out.
Over the years, Fengyun has not relaxed his practice of strength for a single day, and now his control of strength has reached a very high level.
Raise your foot and step lightly on the ground, and the four pieces of wood will jump up automatically.
He reached out his hand, and they landed in his palm, and four pieces were stacked in a neat pile.
Fengyun smiled slightly, turned and walked to the river.
With a flick of his hand, the four pieces of wood flew out one after the other, and at the same time fell into the river, the distance between them was exactly the same, as if measured with a ruler.
As soon as the wooden block fell into the water, Fengyun's brow furrowed.
When the wood came into contact with the surface of the river, something very strange happened, as if they had suddenly turned into stone, and they sank all at once, and in an instant, they disappeared without a trace.
Fengyun tried other things again, but to no avail.
Whether it's bamboo, reeds, or hay, when they touch the water of the pumice river, they will sink for an extreme period of time.
The idea of crossing the pumice river was put on hold.
Fengyun took the artificial wings off his back and unfolded them, examining the broken spots.
He was ready to mend it and fly straight across the pumice river.
After seeing it, his brow did not loosen.
Although the damage to the artificial wings was not too severe, he now lacked the necessary repair tools, and it would take quite a bit of time to repair it to the point where it could fly.
He only hesitated for a short time, but decided to mend the artificial wings, otherwise he would not be able to cross the pumice river at all.
Just as he was about to look for materials to repair his artificial wings, he heard a muffled thud in his ears, as if something huge had come out of the ground.
Fengyun immediately followed the prestige and found that the source of the sound came from the surface of the Pumice River.
The river was tumbling, and it was rising one or two people high, and it was still rising, and there were more than one place, and there were many, as if some behemoth was emerging from the bottom of the river.
He retreated about twenty feet at great speed, and then dodged behind a large tree, and from the side of the trunk, an eye appeared to look at the river.
Bang bang......
The water splashed everywhere, flying to a height of more than a dozen stories, and the existence under the surface of the river was really about to appear.
Fengyun immediately urged the Eye of the Serpent God to look at the thing that was still wrapped in mist.
When he saw their true faces, he showed a strange expression.
They weren't terrible monsters as he had expected, but huge rocks.
The distance between them is not too far, the farthest is less than ten zhang, and if you use them as a springboard to cross the pumice river, it will become a breeze.
Fengyun no longer hesitated and rushed towards the river, but before jumping onto the boulder that emerged from the water, he threw a stone.
