Chapter 8: The Giant Bird Strikes
Ye Xiao and the eldest Liu each held a saber-toothed tiger cub, perhaps the female saber-toothed tiger fur on their backs carried their mother's breath, and the little saber-toothed tiger was quiet in their arms.
This time they went out hunting, their original target was mammoths, but they unexpectedly harvested the fur of the saber-toothed tiger.
It's just that in addition to the joy of the unexpected harvest, looking at the two little tiger cubs waiting to be fed, Ye Xiao was both distressed and headached, their food problem had not been solved, which added two more mouths.
Alas, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and they still need to work hard!
The three of them walked back along the markers, and soon they came to the hillside again, where the mammoths were gone, and judging by the huge footprints left on the snow, they must have gone in the other direction.
They were carrying dozens of pounds of saber-toothed tiger fur on their backs, and there were little tiger cubs here, it was impossible to catch up, Ye Xiao shook his head a little helplessly, feeling that he was a little too greedy.
Their harvest today is quite rich, at least more than two hundred pounds of fur is enough to make a dress for each of the seven of them.
The three of them walked on the vast ice field, surrounded by huge trees that were very tall, but far away from each other, and seemed a little sparse on this wide ice field.
The mountains in the distance are endless, and the snow shimmers in the sunlight, but although the sun is shining, there is not much temperature, perhaps this is the characteristic of the Ice Age.
This feeling of being on the vast snowfield made Ye Xiao feel a sense of pride in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of the poems of a generation of great people in the world they were originally in:
The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless;
Up and down the river, suddenly lost and surging.
Mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, want to be higher than the heavenly public test.
It must be a sunny day, and look at the red dress, which is extraordinarily enchanting.
There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, leading countless heroes to bend their waists.
Ye Xiao, who was caught in the pride of the great man's poetry, didn't know that a huge crisis was approaching them.
Hundreds of meters above them, a huge bird was staring at them with a fierce gaze.
The wingspan of this giant bird is seven or eight meters wide, the body length is four or five meters, covered with black and hard feathers, the beak has a sharp beak, and the most bizarre thing is that the top of the giant bird's head is obliquely back, several meters long, brightly colored feathers, which is in stark contrast to its pitch-black feathers.
The giant bird followed Ye Xiao all the way, and its huge eyes looked at them as if they were looking at several prey.
Suddenly, the giant bird's body changed and swooped towards Ye Xiao, who was teasing the tiger cub in his arms, unaware of the impending danger.
Just when the giant bird was dozens of meters away from Ye Xiao, the tiger cub in Ye Xiao's arms seemed to sense the danger, and under the instinctive drive, it screamed and drilled into Ye Xiao's arms.
Ye Xiao was puzzled, and saw a huge black shadow rapidly approaching them.
"Get down!"
Ye Xiao was alarmed, shouted and lay down, then rolled on the spot, turned over and saw a scene that made his cold feathers stand on end: a giant bird stretched out its claws and swooped towards them at great speed, the claws at the front of those claws were glowing cold, and they looked extremely sharp.
Xiao Ma and Big Liu haven't figured out the situation yet, but when they heard Ye Xiao's roar, they instinctively threw themselves on the ground, which is a habit they have developed as special forces for many years.
Ye Xiao held the tiger cub in one hand and raised the sniper rifle with the other, he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't care if he aimed at the giant bird or not, he raised his hand to shoot.
"Bang!"
The characteristic sound of a sniper rifle reverberated through the ice field, breaking the silence.
"Wow~"
The giant bird was startled by the sudden sound of gunshots, and with a flap of its wings, it changed the castration of the flutter, flew over Ye Xiao's head to the other side, and then quickly flew into the air.
"Whew...... It's dangerous! ”
Dodging the attack of the giant bird, Ye Xiao exhaled a breath, and secretly said that it was so dangerous, he was almost caught just now, with the sharpness of the giant bird's claws, if this is grasped, it must be cold!
"Poof, his grandmother's, chief, what kind of bird is this? How is it so big! ”
The big Liu was directly blown into the snow by the wind brought by the wings of the giant bird, and ate a mouthful of snow, and at this moment he spit out the snow in his mouth, and was a little angry.
"I don't know, but ......" Ye Xiao was about to say something, but after his eyes skimmed to the giant bird flying into the sky, he turned around and pounced on them, his face changed and he shouted loudly: "It's not good, be careful!" The giant bird is here again! ”
"Damn, again! His grandmother's, let you see how powerful Grandpa Liu is! ”
Big Liu exclaimed in surprise and raised the machine gun in his hand to shoot at the giant bird.
"Da Da Da ......"
The machine gun spewed fire, and dozens of bullets whizzed towards the giant bird.
However, the giant bird seemed to know the power of the weapon in his hand, and when the big Liu Gang raised the machine gun, his wings changed direction, causing dozens of bullets to pass by, but they did not hit it.
"I'll go, this bird is too fast!" Seeing that the bullet missed, the big Liu's jaw dropped in shock, he really couldn't imagine how this giant bird could have such a flexible body.
"Quick, run behind this tree!"
Ye Xiao saw a tall tree not far from him, quickly ran over, and then shouted at the big Liu and the pony.
As soon as the two heard this, they immediately ran away, they were twenty meters away from the big tree where Ye Xiao was, and at this time Ye Xiao was already standing behind the big tree and pointed a sniper rifle at the giant bird.
After the giant bird changed its shape, it didn't pause, its body swooped down, and it came straight to the big Liu.
At this moment, Ye Xiao was squatting behind the big tree, holding it with both hands, and as for the fur on his back and the little tiger cub, he had already thrown it aside because it was in the way.
Because Ye Xiao hid behind the big tree in advance, and the giant bird was blocked by the big tree, he didn't notice that Ye Xiao was pointing a gun at it.
Because it now only has the pony and the big Liu in its eyes, these two little things are like a dinner that is about to reach its mouth.
Ye Xiao saw the figure of the giant bird from the sniper scope, and the corners of his mouth pulled an arc upward, and those who were familiar with him knew that Ye Xiao was going to move seriously.
The giant bird was getting closer and closer to the two, and when he was about to catch up with them, Ye Xiao pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" "Bump!"
Ye Xiao fired two shots in a row, and it was fired when the giant bird was only a dozen meters away from the big Liu and the two of them, which can be said to be all within reach.
The reason why he chose this time was because Ye Xiao knew that at such a close distance, no matter how flexible the giant bird was, he didn't have time to change his body to avoid it.
Sure enough, two shots hit the two wings of the giant bird at the same time, and the giant bird wailed, and its body fell to the ground with a crooked shape.
With a bang, the huge body of the giant bird smashed into the snow, smashing the snow out of a large hole.
"Wow~"
The giant bird struggled to fly, but due to severe damage to its wings, the giant bird fluttered a few times and did not fly again.
The three of them hid behind the big tree and did not rush over, although they did not know what the name of this giant bird was, but it was certainly a ferocious carnivorous bird.
Once this bird is injured, it tends to become more ferocious, and if it is caught by its wings or giant claws, it will definitely not be able to stand it with its small body.
"Boss, let me go over and pop it." Big Liu remembered that he was made to eat snow on the ground by this giant bird before, and he couldn't help but imagine that it turned out.
"Wait, it's too much of a waste of bullets with a machine gun, so I'll do it."
Ye Xiao stopped him, the bullets they brought when they crossed over were limited, and it didn't look like they were in a military region, they could make up for it when they ran out, and if they ran out of this bullet, they would have one less, so they still had to save as much as possible.
Ye Xiao raised his sniper rifle, aimed it at the giant bird's head, and shot directly.
A puddle of blood came out of the giant bird's head, and then it fell with a tilt of its head, but it was not dead for a while, and the body could not stop fluttering, and at the last pump, it gradually stopped moving.
Ye Xiao and the others knew that this giant bird was truly dead.
"Haha, chief, now we have food, such a big giant bird, enough for us to eat for several days." The big Liu screamed excitedly, and then ran towards the giant bird.
Ye Xiao looked at Sa Huan's big Liu, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and shook his head, this big Liu is good at everything, but he usually likes to eat it, especially this kind of game, he doesn't know how many times he has eaten it, but he never gets tired of eating it.
Now that the problem of food has been solved, Ye Xiao's mood has also improved, such a big bird doesn't know what it tastes like, he has some faint expectations.
