Chapter Ninety-Two: Three-legged Black with a Human Face
The camp set up an ambush and shot down the strange birds, so I turned over the carcasses of the strange birds and began to examine them.
The giant bird is very abnormal, huge as an ostrich, but it can fly as fast as lightning in the air. The extremely strange mask with a bird's head and three legs made the people standing behind me start talking to each other.
I grabbed the bird's long neck, leaned its strange face in front of me, and pulled the mask from the bird's head with my hand.
It turned out that this strange bird was born with this honor, not the day after tomorrow.
I put down the bird's head in amazement, turned over the giant bird's carcass, and picked up the three bird's claws to examine it carefully. I saw that the bird's legs were very thick, and very long, almost as long as the crane's legs, and the three sharp claws were as hard and powerful as if they were made of stainless steel.
I was amazed that this strange bird had a strange human face and three legs. This bird is so shocking and unusual, breaking the tradition that birds only have two legs, and it is unique.
Thinking of this, his mind suddenly flashed, and he couldn't help blurting out "Three-legged black." â
When everyone heard this, they all gasped.
"Three-legged black" is a mythical and legendary bird that lives in the Kunlun Mountains and feeds for the Queen Mother of the West.
In the "River Atlas Map", it is said: "Kunlun is in the water, and it cannot be reached unless you take the dragon." There is a three-legged sacred bird, which feeds for the Queen Mother of the West. "That is, Kunlun Mountain towers high in the water. It can only be reached by riding a flying dragon; And here is a three-legged sacred bird, which is specially used to get food for the Queen Mother of the West.
And the "Historical Records. Sima Xiangru's Biography also recorded: "[The Queen Mother of the West] hoopoe and the acupuncture point is also fortunate to have a three-legged black for it." It is also said: The three-legged black is the messenger of the Queen Mother of the West. The three-legged black and the nine-tailed fox are often used as wild birds and beasts, and are listed next to the seat of the Queen Mother of the West.
Ancient legend: The three-legged black dwells in the middle of the day, and there are three legs for the essence of the sun. "Houyi Shooting the Sun" tells the story of this three-legged black.
It can be seen that all kinds of signs prove that this kind of three-legged black is indeed a mistake. And there have been unearthed in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and other eras, about the three-legged black unearthed cultural relics. Most of the birds are hollow, three-legged erect, and the tail feathers are square and long. The body is covered with scaly feathers, and the feet are also decorated with scales, and the bird has a plump body. Hook your beak with your head high.
In ancient times, there was a green feather divine bird that referred to the three-legged black, and the colorful feather divine bird referred to the phoenix. However, most of the murals in ancient times were decorated, and the paintings were all golden three-legged black, implying that it was a symbol of the sun. It is also known as the "three-legged golden crow".
I looked at the giant bird on the ground. The feathers are neither cyan nor golden, and they are not as beautiful as domestic hens.
When the onlookers heard me blurt out "three-legged black", they were first shocked, and then they talked about it.
The playboy squatted down and said to me, "Brother, I've heard of our Chinese myths and legends, can you say something reliable?" How could such an ugly thing be a divine bird? â
After all, the three-legged black is only stored in ancient mythology, and even whether it really exists in the specific existence of zĂ i. There is no way to study it. Of course, I couldn't make any assumptions, so I shook my head and said, "I'm not sure." But can you be sure that this thing is a horse thief? â
The playboy wasn't quite sure and said, "I'm not sure." However, the speed of this strange bird is as fast as lightning, and it is difficult to detect its existence unless we have prepared it in advance, which is very much in line with the characteristics of horse thieves who seemed to be invisible ghosts before. â
I squatted on the ground, wondering if the playboy's guess was correct, this strange bird carcass aroused my great interest, so I turned my head and looked behind me, wanting to ask the fifth master what to do with the strange bird's carcass.
As a result, when I turned my head, I saw a lightning bolt speeding in the sky behind everyone, and I couldn't help but exclaim, "Be careful."
As soon as the words fell, before the onlookers had time to react, they saw a person standing behind the fifth master of Zha on the top of his head, stopping a three-legged black with a human face, its three sharp steel claws, instantly grabbed the head of the person under him, and then flapped its wings and flew into the air, its three sharp claws, and pulled off the person's head.
The headless corpse collapsed to the ground in an instant, blood spraying from the neck like a column, and blood splattered on the faces and bodies of the people around it, staining the spot with blood.
I squatted on the ground, and when I suddenly saw this tragic situation, I fell to the ground, and my heart was terrified, I had never seen such a bloody and terrifying scene in my life.
I sat on the ground with my legs limp, and the onlookers had already raised their guns and kept shooting at the strange birds in the sky.
I stared at the headless corpse still spurting blood, fear rushing from my toes to my mind. The stomach acid kept churning, and I immediately hurriedly covered my mouth, trying not to spit it out.
Looking up, I looked at the distant sky, trying to distract myself, but my eyes swept to an even more alarming situation.
In between, the towering rocks surrounding our camp were densely packed with strange birds such as the three-legged black.
I jumped up from the ground and raised my arms and shouted, "Everyone, we're surrounded." With that, he ran as he pointed to the top of the towering bedrock.
Only then did everyone realize that countless three-legged monsters stopped at the top of the four walls of the bedrock top valley, surrounding us in the valley.
I thought about getting equipment in the tent, and on the way to run, I saw that Zha Wuye, Kun Ba and the others had already gathered together, and I didn't know what they were talking about?
I figured they were discussing what to do, so I was engrossed in running through the convoy and heading southwest.
Before I lifted the curtain on the top of the tent, I saw the three-legged strange birds perched above the top of the rock, fluttering their wings and shouting "no", it seemed that they were about to attack en masse.
Pressed for time, I immediately dodged into the tent, opened my backpack on the ground, took out the dark squire, pinned it to my waist, and carried the quiver behind my back.
Tianyu saw me arming myself in a hurry, and heard gunshots outside the tent. He walked up to me and asked me anxiously, "What's wrong?" â
I got up and said to her, "The camp has been attacked, and I have to go out to help." You stay and take care of the fat man. With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
As a result, Tianyu grabbed my arm violently: "I also went out to support." â
I glanced at the fat man lying on the bed and thought to myself that he was in the tent and should be safer. And just now I visually measured the number of three-legged monsters, and our forces are obviously at a disadvantage, and one more person means more strength, so I nodded. Said to Tianyu: "We need weapons. â
After hearing this, Tianyu pulled me out: "I know where the arsenal is. â
When we stepped out of the tent, we found that the camp was brightly lit. More than a dozen bright searchlights were erected on the ground, shaking people's eyes so much that they couldn't open them. My eyes couldn't adjust to such a dazzling amount of light, so I couldn't help but cover my eyes with my hands, but Tianyu pulled me to continue running without feeling anything.
We were soon in the southeast direction. In front of a tent near the parking lot. I saw the curtain of the tent hanging high, and from time to time people rushed out of the tent with bullets.
So, we hurried into the tent, and found that there were a large number of wooden boxes in the tent, most of which had been opened, and many of which were empty.
Tianyu walked up to the pile of wooden boxes, lifted the lid of a wooden box, and took out two submachine guns from it. I took it and looked at it, and it was a familiar gun. At the beginning, the fat man and I were in the Japanese army warehouse underground in the northeast, and the one used to deal with the rotting corpses was a kind of "100-style submachine gun", which I used very easily, and immediately hung it on my chest with satisfaction, and then took the magazine in the wooden box.
After taking the weapon, I hurried out, but was stopped by the rain, and she said to me, "You accompany me to get something." â
I was so anxious at this time that I thought: How can I have time to delay with you any longer!
So he said to Tianyu: "You go by yourself, I have to go first" Before I could finish refusing, Tianyu couldn't help but pull me tightly, left the arsenal, and went directly into the tent next door.
When I saw Tianyu's clothes hanging in the tent, I said to myself: It turns out that Tianyu lives next to the arsenal, and this girl is bold enough that she is not afraid of the explosion of the arsenal on fire, so she has set the tent so close to the arsenal.
After entering the tent, Tianyu let go of her hand and quickly walked to the side of the bed where she slept.
I anxiously said to Tianyu, "What do you want to take, can you hurry up?" It's a time of the hour out there, so you don't have to delay any longer. â
Tianyu ignored me, walked straight to the head of the bed, and took an inconspicuous burden placed next to the pillow to the side of the bed and opened it.
The moment the burden was opened, I saw a cold light, it turned out that the bag contained a dart with a cold light, and this dart was surprisingly large, it could be called a dagger.
Tianyu tied the wide belt full of darts in the baggage around his waist, then put his feet on the edge of the bed and lifted up his trouser legs. I saw a scabbard tied to her ankle, and Tianyu inserted a very sharp dagger into the scabbard, and then lowered her trouser leg.
Tianyu made a gesture, then turned to me and said, "You are not allowed to leave my side for a while." With that, he pulled me out of the tent.
Hearing Tianyu's resolute words of command just now, my heart turned out to be happy, and I let her pull me out of the tent.
The northeast corner of the camp had become a sea of fire, and where the guns were concentrated, Tianyu and I hurriedly ran straight forward with our guns, running towards the northeast direction of the battlefield.
As the rain dragged me toward the northeast, where the battle was raging, a black shadow suddenly swooped through the air like an electric switch.
I suddenly felt a strong wind rushing to the top of my head, and the hair on the top of my head rose in a mess.
But I secretly screamed "not good" in my heart, but I didn't have time to react, and the movements in my hands were already half a beat slower.
