Chapter 40: Crisis
At this time, it was the night of the twenty-ninth day, and the other people, dragons and birds were already asleep, but Wang Xingjiang did not practice swords or sharpen wooden planks as usual, but stared at the little tall bird.
Tomorrow will be the thirtieth day, the day when the little stilt will fully grow into a stilt.
In the past two days, there have already been signs of change, first of all, the little tall bird has increased in size a lot, and has surpassed the size of its mother, and it sits down to a large ball with a diameter of one meter.
At the same time, its original gray feathers began to gradually fall off, replacing them with feathers as black as its mother.
But at this time, the little tall bird lost its feathers too quickly, and even the black feathers did not have time to grow, and the body was bare like a bald head piece by piece.
These exposed skins then grow feathers at a rate visible to the naked eye, filling in the void with an efficiency that bald people can't match.
It took about 30 minutes for the little tallbird's feathers to turn completely black and thick. At this time, it lost some of its original childishness, and inexplicably had a majestic momentum.
Wang Xingjiang put his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to attack the little tall bird that might burst out and hurt people.
Perhaps because of the excessive energy consumption, or because it simply wants to sleep, the little tall bird still lies quietly on the ground, making a slight purring sound from time to time.
But Wang Xingjiang didn't dare to take it lightly at this time, the setting in the game made him not too optimistic about the changes that happened to the little stilt, but he was looking forward to a miracle.
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless, not to mention that they have lived together for more than 20 days.
It was almost dawn, and Lihua Aoki woke up according to her previous time, and then she was surprised to find that Wang Xingjiang was staring at the little stilt bird with a scrutinizing eye.
She didn't know why, and immediately asked Wang Xingjiang why she did this. After a mixed dialogue in Chinese, Japanese and English, coupled with a burst of dancing body language, Aoki Lihua knew that the little tall bird still had such a hidden danger.
Looking back on these few days, she didn't want betrayal to happen, but there was nothing she could do about it. I had to observe and pray on the sidelines.
When the little fire dragon finally woke up to learn of the situation, he immediately ran to the little stilt bird, looking at it worriedly, expecting it to greet him as usual.
However, until winter rises, the little tall bird lies quietly on the ground without any further changes.
Eventually, the little tall bird began to shake up. Going to wake up? Wang Xingjiang immediately prepared with his sword, it was best if there was no problem, but once the little tall bird had a tendency to attack, Wang Xingjiang would try to defeat the enemy with one move and reduce its pain as much as possible.
Xiao Huolong and Lihua Aoki, who were preparing breakfast, heard Wang Xingjiang's movement and immediately put down the work in their hands. The girl looked in the direction of the little tall bird, and the little fire dragon chose to run to its side more directly.
Wang Xingjiang hurriedly stretched out his hand, wanting to stop the little fire dragon's dangerous move. Just when Wang Xingjiang was stunned, a black shadow appeared in front of his eyes that rushed straight towards the little fire dragon.
Before the two of them could react, the black shadow suppressed the little fire dragon, and then began to wriggle.
Now don't worry, Wang Xingjiang and Aoki Lihua breathed a sigh of relief, it was still the little tall bird before.
But the little fire dragon was now screaming and struggling, but how could the little tall bird, which had become more powerful, let it run away.
And this is the first time that the little tall bird has seen the little fire dragon anxiously running towards him, and he must face this historic moment with the most enthusiastic attitude.
The final result was that by the time the little tall bird finally vented its excitement and quieted down, the little fire dragon was already foaming at the mouth and had circled eyes.
Wang Xingjiang, who had been watching from the sidelines while drinking broth, found an opportunity at this time and took the opportunity to take the little fire dragon out. Wang Xingjiang is very fortunate now, fortunately he didn't treat me as a mother at that time, this is so enthusiastic that ordinary people can't afford it.
Lihua Aoki, who had been worried, immediately took over the little fire dragon, glared at Wang Xingjiang angrily by the way, and then carefully wiped the little fire dragon's body with the prepared towel.
"You can't blame me for that!" Wang Xingjiang immediately explained, "They usually play like this!" ”
The girl didn't understand Wang Xingjiang's Chinese defense at all, but even if she did, she would think that Wang Xingjiang was arguing. Obviously he is the oldest person here, why don't he stop the little tall bird?
Realizing that the girl couldn't understand her words, and might not even be able to bird herself at all, Wang Xingjiang had no choice but to take the blame with peace of mind and silently go to the side to deal with the rabbit for lunch.
The little tall bird is contented lying on the ground, and the "little fire dragon energy" supplemented this time is not only in large quantity, but also of good quality, and it has to digest it well for a while.
After noon, in order to replenish the food reserves, Wang Xingjiang prepared to lead the team to the rabbit hole and go to catch a special catch - the little tall bird was responsible for beating the rabbit, and the others were responsible for catching the rabbit and bringing it back.
After being fully armed, Wang Xingjiang and his entourage officially set off.
Now Wang Xingjiang wears a birdskin vest and a dogskin robe, and is protected by rabbit skin on his shoulders, knees, elbows, etc., to prevent cold and warmth and prevent arthritis.
Reika Aoki was still wearing her school uniform, but she had all the gear except for the tank top. However, Wang Xingjiang was still worried that it was not warm enough, so he also made a rabbit skin hat for the girl, and even the ice dog skin was made into a small cloak for her to wear.
The hunt went unusually well, and under the watchful eyes of three enthusiastic spectators shouting 666, the main operator, Little Tallbird, showed its outstanding physical fitness and superb fighting skills.
I saw it rush towards the unsuspecting rabbit like an arrow from the string, and the beak of the bird clicked three times in a row, and the heads of the three rabbits burst open, successfully scaring Lika Aoki in the crowd of onlookers.
But it didn't stop, and continued to unleash a swift attack on the rabbits that had just reacted, and in an instant, four rabbits fell to the ground and died.
The little tall bird then pursued the panicked fleeing rabbits, and managed to kill three more.
In the end, the little stilt bird completed the hunt with seven birds in ten seconds, a total of ten birds.
To be honest, not only Aoki Lihua was frightened, but Xiao Huolong and Wang Xingjiang were also shocked by the efficiency of Little Tallbird, but the focus was a little different.
Aoki Lihua was frightened by this cruel hunting method, after all, it was the first time she had seen this situation, and Wang Xingjiang couldn't stand this kind of bloody scene at that time.
Wang Xingjiang was shocked by the speed of the little stilt bird, which was much faster than the stilt bird at that time, could it be a mutation?
The little fire dragon was shocked by the growth rate of the little tall bird, and it actually grew taller!
Then because the mood of the girl and the little fire dragon was very low, the ten rabbits were carried back by a small stilted bird with one in their mouths and Wang Xingjiang carrying nine rabbits.
Back at the camp, Reika Aoki sat down on her bed with a pale face. Compared with his situation at the time, Wang Xingjiang decided that it was best for her to figure it out by herself.
One is that Wang Xingjiang will not comfort people, and the other is that I don't know how long this kind of day is, so it is better to get used to it as soon as possible.
The little fire dragon has long recovered its spirits, after all, it has been hit several times, and it has gradually become accustomed to the growth rate of the little tall bird, and then it has played with the little tall bird again.
Because it only took an hour and a half to come and go, Wang Xingjiang, who had nothing to do, began to dig up wood. Set a small goal first and get a set of tables and chairs out.
Aoki Lihua's mind kept replaying the ferocious feeding behavior of the little tall bird just now, which was a cruel act that was very different from its usual cute performance.
And now that the little tall bird has returned to its previous cute state, she can't figure out how it can quickly switch between these two situations? Why is it so good with the little fire dragon after it is covered in blood? Why could the little fire dragon and Wang Xingjiang ignore the killing it had just made?
Kind girls do not understand the difficulties of survival, and therefore cannot understand the necessity of such emotional transformation.
Until dusk, Lihua Aoki hadn't figured it out, so she wanted to ask Wang Xingjiang. And when she was about to speak, there was a sudden howl one after another, and then she saw Wang Xingjiang's face change suddenly, and she raised her sword to be on guard.
The unknown girl walked outside and looked in the direction Wang Xingjiang was facing, but the terrible scene she saw directly made her so frightened that she fell to the ground.
That's a wolf! And a big pack of wolves!
