Chapter Sixty-Four: The Black Phantom
I looked back in a panic and saw that it was an eagle with a wingspan of almost two meters and black and shiny plumage.
The black-skinned thin man shrank his neck when he heard the eagle's chirp, and it was obvious that he was also startled by the sudden situation.
The black eagle's huge wings flapped a few times before retracting to its sides, and I have seen the animal world, this is to minimize wind resistance, and it is also a precursor to the eagle's rapid dive while hunting.
All four of us involuntarily stopped, because this black hawk was so eye-catching.
The eagle was tens of meters away from the black skin, and I imagined that it would be very fast, but I didn't expect it to be so fast, and from the moment it retracted its wings, it became a black shadow in my eyes.
Just heard the sound of "bang", and half of the neck of the black-skinned thin man disappeared directly with the blood mist in the sky!
Blackskin fell to the ground and struggled with a leak in his throat, and died in a few moments.
And my eyes searched the sky for a long time before I caught the trace of the black eagle again, which was now hovering leisurely in the sky, but I could clearly see that between his two large, sharp claws, a piece of flesh that had been cut off half of his esophagus.
Gangzi squatted on the ground and looked at the eagle nervously, "Where did this thing come from?" ”
I stupidly looked at the Ming Di in my hand, and then looked up at the huge black eagle, "It seems to have been summoned by this flute..."
As soon as he had finished speaking, the black eagle flapped its wings twice and flew towards me, and I was like a calf that had just crawled out of the placenta, and I stood on the ground and did not dare to move except to tremble.
However, the black eagle flew quite leisurely, and it was completely different from the momentum when I killed the black-skinned thin man before, and I also told myself with a hint of luck in my heart that it should not have come to kill me.
Sure enough, the black eagle circled down and landed steadily on top of my head, Ah Jin looked at me with stars in both eyes, but she didn't know that at this moment, the top of my head hurt like being beaten by Mei Chaofeng.
The black eagle's talons were bigger than my hands, and as he was digging at my scalp to stand firm, I felt a heat on the top of my head and a trace of blood ran down my head to the tip of my nose.
"Brother, you can, big head to catch the eagle." Gangzi is a little gloating.
I wanted to point at him and scold him, but I didn't dare to move too much, I was afraid that if the black eagle above my head couldn't stand steadily, and grabbed my "handrail" a few times, then it is estimated that I will become a bald child for the rest of my life.
"Can you please not scare it? It can rip the man's neck off in a second, and it can rip my scalp off in a second. "I didn't dare to say this with a neutral breath, I was really afraid that the black grandfather on my head would not be able to stand steadily.
The Black Eagle seemed to have had enough rest, raised its head and flapped its wings, and finally jumped from my head to the ground, which also gave me a chance to get a good look at it up close.
Except for its black plumage and huge size, it was no different from the eagles I had seen on TV, except that its beak had been cut off slightly, and the hook in front of its beak was missing.
I thought about it for a while, and the old man did say such a sentence: The old man and the Black Eagle brother have cooperated and fought for a lifetime, who would have thought that it would take my eyes in the end, and I also pulled its mouth, which is really ironic.
It turned out that this was the eagle that had been working with the old man for a long time.
Gangzi didn't dare to get too close, mainly because I forgot to tell them about Ming Di, so he didn't know the details of this eagle.
It was the first time I had seen Gangzi so timid, and I immediately planned to tease him, I raised my hand and pointed at Gangzi, "Little Black!" Go and rip this man's bald scoop off for me! ”
Gangzi trembled, looked at me incredulously, just when I was about to laugh at his shame, Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head and let out a long sigh, and then the wings rolled up a gust of wind and flew straight to Gangzi's head!
I hurriedly shouted, "Ancestors! I'm kidding! Don't kill him!! ”
At the last moment, Xiao Hei flapped his wings violently, and his whole body was forced to rise a few centimeters, almost rubbing Gangzi's scalp and flew over, and after a while, it leisurely glided to the top of the three-legged golden toad's head, and actually squatted on it.
Gangzi rushed over and wanted to kick my ass, I quickly apologized to him, "Brother, stop being angry!" Don't get excited, don't get excited, I'm just going to tease you, who knows it can understand people, it's really evil. ”
For Xiao Hei's appearance, our previous tension disappeared completely, and the three of us thoroughly checked the injuries on our bodies, and the teeth that should be extracted were all taken care of to stop bleeding, disinfected and bandaged, and the rest was how to open the stone slab.
We looked helplessly at the fat toad not far away, thinking that if we wanted to study the slate, we would have to wait for it to drink water again.
Gangzi sat down on the spot, scratched his bald head and asked me, "You are more educated than me, think about how often this toad drinks water." ”
In fact, this question is not without answers, in ancient times, people did not know the principle of total lunar eclipses, and at the same time had awe of this natural phenomenon, which is why there is the so-called golden toad eating the moon or tengu swallowing the moon.
For the time being, no matter who raised this toad or who trained it to swallow the water of the moon pool, if this person really designed all this according to the cycle of the total lunar eclipse, then the three-legged golden toad should drink water every year and a half.
Because the cycle of a total lunar eclipse is one and a half years.
Gangzi shouted out directly after hearing my words, "A year and a half?!" What are you kidding, let's dig a trough to get the water out. ”
After saying that, Gangzi got up and got a stick, ready to open a ditch to divert water.
To be honest, I don't object to this plan, instead of spending time here studying these mysterious things, let's take the scientific puzzle route, and directly open a canal to divert the water out.
Just when Gangzi and I were hot-headed and holding wooden sticks and preparing to start drying, a series of small footsteps sounded faintly in the darkness behind us.
The three of us hurriedly took our positions and held the wooden sticks and waited, who knew that after more than ten seconds, Xiaoxiaohua ran over.
Gangzi looked happy, "It's the little elf who saved you!" ”
Before I could explain it to him, Little Flower carved it into the ground with a blade.
Gangzi and Ah Jin didn't know what it was doing at first, but I knew that this was Xiaoxiaohua writing, and Huacheng must be trying to tell me something very important, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that it was great to have such a reliable junior brother!
Little Flower quickly finished writing, and the three of us leaned over to read it.
There are four big characters written crookedly on the ground, two Chinese characters plus two English letters to be exact.
Xiaoxiaohua wrote - Wu Yan SB
