Chapter 281: Unexpected Salvation
A sound like a sharp weapon cutting through the air passed by his ears, stirring Feng Xiaoyue's exposed skin, and immediately aroused a layer of goosebumps. Feng Xiaoyue turned her head to look over, only to see a flying arrow off the string hitting the nearest big bird like a bamboo.
The big bird screamed, fell down in response, and landed not far from Feng Xiaoyue's feet, and fluttered helplessly twice, and then there was no movement or sound.
Feng Xiaoyue was still rejoicing, and those big birds noticed that their companions had been shot, and they immediately made a mess, noisy and noisy as if they were coming to take revenge, and as if they were panicking and planning to flee in all directions.
Feng Xiaoyue took advantage of the fact that these strange birds had not had time to react to determine the target, and hurriedly ran behind a big tree on the side, and took advantage of the trunk to hide for a while.
Feng Xiaoyue's heart was pounding in her chest now, but she also knew that Fang Cai's arrow must have come from someone. The thought that there might be other hunters around her made her feel much more relieved.
It's just that those strange birds are too scary, and she doesn't have the courage to poke her head out and look around. Feng Xiaoyue shrank her whole body and squatted next to the tree roots, hoping that the battlefield outside to hunt big birds would end soon.
But after that, it seemed that the sound of the big bird screaming was no longer heard, Feng Xiaoyue raised her head with some doubts, but just happened to crash into the eyes of the big bird facing her.
The big bird found her traces, and with a scream, he was about to lean down and rush towards Feng Xiaoyue. Feng Xiaoyue closed her eyes in fright, but inadvertently heard an extremely shrill whistle in such a noisy environment, followed by the heavy sound of the object falling to the ground.
After waiting for a while, there was no pain on her body that had been cut by the big bird, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw that the big bird in front of her was also dead on the ground.
It was at this moment that the person who shot the big bird just now seemed to have found his way. Feng Xiaoyue looked from afar, and saw two or three torches constantly swaggering, quickly approaching this side.
No matter what kind of intelligent animals are in the woods, they will definitely not approach the firelight, Feng Xiaoyue is a little more determined, at least she can determine who is coming.
In the blink of an eye, the firelight swept in front of him, and a vigorous black shadow ran past Feng Xiaoyue's side.
Feng Xiaoyue was taken aback, and turned around sharply, only to see that the man had turned over and climbed onto the high branches, while the big birds were afraid of the torches in his hand, and they only circled around but did not dare to approach.
Surrounded by so many strange birds, this person didn't seem to be a little cramped. Feng Xiaoyue watched him squat down like a four-legged beast and jump onto the branch of another adjacent tree.
You must know that there are at least several steps between the two trees, and the trees are so tall that if you are not careful, you will fall into a bloody blur.
Feng Xiaoyue's heartbeat rhythm was not inferior to the frequency of her own evasion when she was chasing and killing strange birds.
At the moment when this person was in the air, there were also bold strange birds that wanted to pounce on him, but he turned over and dodged the attack of the strange birds, and still landed firmly on the branches.
By the light of the moon, Feng Xiaoyue's eyesight at night was not bad, and she saw that the hand of the person who had nothing but a torch in his hand was inexplicable
of the appearance of a tree vine.
The strange birds circling around him were also a little angry after the man's repeated volleys and fights, and lowered their flight altitudes, as if they were on a bar with him, and only lingered between the branches.
Although it was not conducive to their flight, they were now carried away by the rage and refused to admit defeat at all. Feng Xiaoyue, as a bystander, also somewhat understood the purpose of that person's actions at this time.
The man was dragging the vine in his hand with one hand and waving a torch with the other, but he was no longer moving, and the strange birds of Qi gathered in the same direction, intending to attack him together.
In this way, it seemed that he had fallen into the arms of the man, and he saw that the man waited unhurriedly for the big birds to fly to him, and then jumped with the vines in his tug.
Immediately, there was a small trembling sound in the woods, and when Feng Xiaoyue raised her eyes, a large net woven by trees and vines fell from the sky, tying up the arrogant strange birds tightly.
Although these vines look slender, they are very resilient, and at least so many big birds can't break free at the same time.
The man stepped on the trunk of the tree to relieve the inertia, and landed firmly on the ground, without the slightest damage on his body. He tightened the vine net, and with his right hand pulled out a long, sharp and thin thorn from the instrument pinned to his belt, and stabbed at the large birds.
Even if Feng Xiaoyue stood so far away, she could hear the screams of those big birds one after another, which were several times more miserable than the chirping before they hunted.
In addition to the group of strange birds that fell into the legal net, there are also many fish that have slipped through the net and are still hovering in the air. Listening to the terrible cries of their companions on the ground, they did not dare to come again to take revenge, but only circled the top of the tree here a few times, and then flew away.
The man pulled his long thorn out of the big bird, and the big bag of strange birds was now completely incapacitated.
He looked up at the group of survivors who had gradually disappeared in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh softly, looking very pity.
It's just that no matter how capable a person is, it is impossible to fly over and catch the rest.
The man picked up a few dead leaves, wiped the long thorns stained with blood, stuffed them back into his waist, and with a little more force in his left hand, he dragged the bag of strange birds from between the trunks.
Feng Xiaoyue hid behind the trunk of the tree, only revealing a pair of eyes to observe, and found that this person walked all the way, and there were blood stains of strange birds staining the open space on the edge of the cliff red, which was particularly shocking at first glance.
From the hunt just now to the present, the man didn't even make a sound, Feng Xiaoyue looked at his way of action and felt like a savage, worried that this person was a ferocious clan.
Although she was grateful that he had saved her life for what he had done just now, Feng Xiaoyue still didn't dare to go over and talk, so she only hid behind the trunk of the tree and adjusted her position according to the direction in which the person was moving, to ensure that this person would not discover her existence.
But just now, this person's two sharp arrows were sent out by her side, how could she not know that there were others hiding here. However, Feng Xiaoyue was nervous and forgot about this stubble for a while.
As for the man who dragged the strange bird away on the edge of the cliff, he didn't mean to come to the forest. Drag the bird to the wall of the hill where the house is built
In the blink of an eye, the man disappeared along with what he had in his hands.
Seeing this situation, Feng Xiaoyue was completely relieved. She used to run desperately in the forest in order to survive, but now that she has eased up, she only feels weak, and the whole person keeps sliding down against the trunk of the tree and sits on the ground.
At the same time, with the bright moonlight in the night sky, Feng Xiaoyue clearly saw that the miasma in the woods had almost spread to this side.
Feng Xiaoyue is only helpless for a while now, she really just got out of the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den, it seems that part of the reason for her weakness is due to these strange miasma.
She sat down under the tree and let out a long sigh, and such a faint sound kept echoing in the woods, and it was terrifying to hear.
"So there were other people here, and I thought I was hallucinating."
Feng Xiaoyue closed her eyes and was about to take a break, but she also had the intention of giving up on herself, when she suddenly heard the clear voice of such a young man in her ears, she opened her eyes suddenly, and found that there was a man with a normal body squatting in front of her.
The man had shaggy black hair and was dressed entirely in animal skins. It's rough, but it's all tightly covered. Judging by the size of this man, he seemed to be the hunter who kept shuttling on the branches.
At the same time that Feng Xiaoyue was looking at him, the man was also looking at her. Feng Xiaoyue could almost see her own reflection in the flashing pupils of this person, and she couldn't help but think of the scene when she crashed into the eyes of the strange bird not long ago, and suddenly felt a chill on her back.
"Are you cold?" The man saw Feng Xiaoyue's body trembling, greeted him very politely, and also took off the short cloak he tied around his neck. "Put this on first, and you'll not be cold in a while."
Since she had never liked such contact with strangers, Feng Xiaoyue was so frightened that she ducked to the side, causing this person's actions to fail, and the cloak made of animal skin was only on her left arm.
"Where are you from? Are you people outside of you all so dislike to talk? Seeing her appearance of being afraid to avoid it, this person didn't feel embarrassed, and generously took the cloak back, but it was inevitable that there would be a few more words on his lips.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't really need to." Feng Xiaoyue listened to this person's logic very clearly, and it didn't look like she hadn't spoken for a long time, so she was a little relieved.
didn't want to be too rude in front of others, so Feng Xiaoyue grabbed her cloak with both hands and nodded gently to him.
The first time that person heard Feng Xiaoyue speak, his eyes suddenly widened with joy, and his body couldn't help but lean forward, getting a little closer in her direction.
"So you can talk, I thought I was a dumb person I saved." Feng Xiaoyue was a little cramped by his action, and half of her body stiffened and didn't dare to move.
Fortunately, the man seemed to notice something, and quickly sat back down, touching the back of his head with one hand and laughing loudly.
"Your voice is really good, I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time, there are a group of old guys living here, it is rare to meet a young girl like you, I am lucky today, I can meet you when I come out to fight birds."
