340 Stealing medicine
Bird Meat was pouring a bottle of pungent potion on the coral deer.
The potion was given to us by Simon Ji, and as soon as it came into contact with the deerskin venison, it reacted violently, making a "sizzling" sound, and emitting an unpleasant smell of corruption.
"It stinks!" Bird meat covered his nose and scolded.
"Why don't you attract that big bug?" I was pinching my nose and I felt like I couldn't stand it anymore.
Simon's potion is supposed to be similar to a strong acid, but it is used exclusively for creatures in the underworld. Pouring potion on the coral deer will cause the hapless "bait" to rot faster and give off a foul smell. You know, the red-eyed yak is a scavenger, too fresh food it is not interested in.
After pouring the potion, I ran away from the bird, hiding downwind to observe. The bait was chosen by both of us, with no tall ground plants nearby, and the wind was blowing right in the direction of the red-eyed nest. As long as it can see or smell.
But the coral deer had been there for an hour, but the red-eyed deer had not moved. At one point, it was already "buzzing" and flying, but only circled around its nest and then went back again, as if it had just come out for a routine check-up.
"It doesn't work!" Bird Meat said dejectedly, "I'm about to die of this smell, why can't this big insect smell it?" ”
"Didn't you say it had good eyesight? It's impossible for it to be invisible from such a conspicuous location? "I complained, too.
"Could it be a matter of distance? That bug only sees things close to it and has good eyesight, and can't see if it's too far away? "Bird meat asked for my opinion.
"Possibly. But the wind is right, it can't see it, it should smell it! ”
"I see!" Bird meat seems to have a high opinion again.
"What do you understand?" I asked.
"It's because of the distance! The direction of the wind changes, so the smell of this side wafts over and then disperses, and the big bugs can only smell a little bit of it, but they can't figure out which direction the real source is. No wonder it flew out and spun around and went back just now! ”
"Well, that makes sense!" I nodded in agreement, "So what do you mean...... And the dead deer is moving towards it? ”
"No, no, no!" Bird Meat shook his head like a rattle, "That's too dangerous!" And there will be no large open space from any further, but will be blocked by grass and trees. Besides, if it's so close, you can see the pseudo-mother and them going up to steal the medicine in a blink of an eye, how can it be considered to be a tiger away from the mountain? ”
"What then? This location is almost half a mile away from its old nest, and if it can't move the place, there has to be movement to attract it! ”
"Let's go out and dance!" The bird thief laughed, "Just jump a little bee or something, it will work!" ”
"Get out!" I kicked him in the ass and yelled, "Why don't you go out and sing a song?" Let's sing "Bugs Fly"! ”
"Hey, hey, hey!" Bird Meat patted his buttocks, and just wanted to say another witty remark, when suddenly his eyes lit up.
"What? What did you come up with? I asked him.
"Yes, you can sing!" The bird meat cried.
"You really know how to sing "Worm Fly"? It's a children's song! I was surprised.
"No, no, no! If you don't sing that, you can sing what the big bugs can understand! Bird Meat shook his head and said with a smile: "You forgot, I have been in the bull market for three years!" What animals haven't been seen? ”
"What does this have to do with the bull market?" I think the more he talked, the more he.
"You don't understand. You see, the shepherds who raise cattle and horses in the sun rely on whistles to command the herds of cattle and horses. And these animals in the underworld don't bark, they only make some muffled sounds, such as the big snail that says, '......'"
I was stunned: "What? Your cheeks have been bulging for a long time, and I can't hear anything! ”
"Alas, your ears are not good!" Bird Meat waved his hand and said, "And the big lizard, whose cry comes from the stomach, like this: 'Coo! Cuckoo! ’”
"Well, I heard this, it's quite similar!" I nodded, as if I understood what he meant.
These underground creatures do not rely on the vocal cords and oral cavity to make sounds, but rely on the abdominal cavity or other organs to make sounds.
"The croaking of the tick should be similar to that of this big bug." Bird meat was changed to another animal, and it was learned, "It should be like this: 'Buzz! Buzzing! ’”
"Yes, yes! Indeed like! I shouted. The sound of insects actually comes from the sound of the wind breaking when their wings flapp, a bit like a folding fan flapping rapidly.
The bird meat was triumphant and said, "The sound of this big insect should be similar to that of a tick, maybe it's just a little louder!" ”
"Then you'll give it a try?" I encouraged.
Bird meat put his hands in front of his mouth, puffed out his cheeks and blew: "Buzz! Buzzing! ”
"A little louder, a little longer!" I also stood aside and started to do "vocal coaching".
"Woooooooooooo Woooooo ”
"That's not right! It's too heavy! ”
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
"Like! That's it! That's it! ”
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
"Come again! Again! ”
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
"...... again"
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
"Don't scream! Hide! Hide! I looked up, screamed badly, and hurriedly pulled the bird's flesh, which was still engrossed in imitating the sound of a red-eyed carp, into the woods.
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
An even more powerful flapping of wings quickly came from the direction of the cliff, and the red-eyed creature finally noticed the movement here, and was flying rapidly in our direction!
The red-eyed duck flew closer and soon spotted the coral deer, which was already half-rotten. It seemed to be a little happy, and landed directly on the coral deer's body, stretched out its mouthparts and poked into the deer's body, and began to "grunt!" Grunt! "Suck it up.
Bird meat and I were now considered to have completed our mission, so we quietly made a big circle out of the dense forest and returned to the bottom of the cliff.
Long Xiaoyan: They also started to do it. I saw that the fog array set up by Ximen Ji had already played a role, and a thick fog slowly rose from under the cliff into the air. At this time, Liu Yuxin and Lu Dian also floated up with the fog as a shield. Long Xiaoyan and Ximen Ji stayed on the ground, engrossed in observing the whereabouts of the red-eyed creature to prevent it from suddenly turning back.
When I ran back with Bird Meat, Liu Yuxin and Lu Dian also succeeded. They took off Tai Sui Zhi and put it in their backpacks, then quickly descended. As soon as they landed, everyone was excited, and they didn't expect the plan to go so smoothly!
"Buzz! Buzz! ”
At this moment, we heard the voice we were most worried about in the distance: the red-eyed creature was flying back! And we were so happy that we didn't have time to retreat, and we remained right below the cliff!
"What should I do?" Lu Dian hurriedly asked Long Xiaoyan, "Run or fight?" ”
Long Xiaoyan frowned violently, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if it was difficult to make a decision.
"Don't be in a hurry!" Simon next to him whispered, motioning for us all to hide under a fern with wide leaves.
I saw that he quickly replaced the two array flags, and simply changed the fog array just now, and immediately gave rise to a thick fog. But the fog didn't drift upwards, it kept rolling around us, completely enveloping the entire expedition in the fog.
The red-eyed duck flew back to the cliff, and at first glance he found that Tai Suizhi was gone. It was extremely angry, and kept circling around where Tai Suizhi was supposed to be, and slammed into the cliff. The pink vines nearby glowed red as they felt the violent vibrations, and the weak petals fell one after another.
After a few hits, Red-Eyed began to frantically look around again for the culprit who had stolen its elixir. It flew low to the ground and searched carefully a few meters above our heads.
However, the compound eyes of insects seem to be huge, but in fact, their visual ability is average. The compound eye is sensitive to light sources, and the images are transmitted to its head as dots before piecing together a complete image. So the angle of view of the insect compound eye is quite large, but the accuracy is very poor.
Several of us and the ghosts were huddled under a large leaf, motionless and afraid to breathe, and there was a thick fog around us. This made it impossible for the red-eyed to judge, and after looking back and forth several times, it finally passed over our heads.
That being said, our spirits remained highly tense, the strings tightened, and our weapons clutched, ready to resist at any moment. The red-eyed creature was also quite persistent, and actually inspected the surrounding dense forest carpet countless times, even the top of the cliff.
After a stalemate for almost a day and a night, the red-eyed duck finally flew away. Without the elixir, there would be no point in it continuing to stay here. We breathed a sigh of relief and high-fived each other in celebration.
"I'm going to make a fortune this time!" Bird Meat cried out happily.
"What are you going to do when you get rich?" Liu Yuxin asked knowingly.
"Go clubbing!" The two sluts actually shouted out together.
I couldn't laugh or cry, so I asked Bird Meat, "What, you don't plan to save money to marry a wife?" ”
Bird Meat shook his head categorically and said, "Look at me now, I tie my head to the waistband of my pants every day, where can I think so much?" There is wine today, drunk today, and a girl sleeps tonight! Ha ha! ”
"That's right, that's right!" Liu Yuxin came over to high-five the bird again, and said with a smile: "I'm a ghost, and I eat both men and women, what's the use of keeping money if you don't go clubbing?" Go back and soak it for three days and three nights! ”
"Three days and three nights, oh, it's so cool!"
At this time, even Long Xiaoyan couldn't do anything about these two idiots, so he had to urge everyone to leave the pink forest first. In order to prevent the red-eyed frog from returning to this place, it is not advisable to stay in this kind of place for a long time.
