Chapter Twenty-Five: Halfway to the Halfway Journey to Bite the Gold
However, the tapir is a bloated animal, but it is actually a strong swimmer and can even dive.
Because they do not have the slightest ability to defend themselves against a strong enemy, tapirs will generally choose places close to rivers to find food and carry out activities, so that they can escape from the water in case of emergency. They swim so fast that even if they can swim, they can't catch up at all, and they can only stare dryly when faced with this situation.
The tapir in front of him is not the first one Qiao Hua has seen in the new generation. Qiao Hua still remembers the first time he chased a juvenile tapir, because he was careless and let the other party run into the river, and then watched the other party escape from his territory in a "dog-planing" swimming style, throwing himself off several streets in degree.
However, Qiao Hua's position this time is very beneficial to him. In addition to the long grass in front of the dozens of meters, there are many low trees with lush foliage, and various thick vines are intertwined, and the tapir in front of him will encounter many obstacles if he wants to escape. The location of the only nearby river was behind Qiao Hua, which was equivalent to interrupting the tapir's most secure escape route.
Qiao Hua lowered the height of his head a little more, so that the low bushes could completely cover his body, and then slowly approached the tapir, which was concentrating on eating leaves, looking for the best distance to deliver the fatal blow.
In fact, in terms of size, Qiao Hua's tall body is not suitable for ambushes. However, he seemed very patient, and he barely made any sound when he moved, and the color of his skin and vegetation was so blended that it was impossible to distinguish without looking closely.
The acquired training coupled with the innate characteristics allowed Qiao Hua to successfully make up for the disadvantages caused by height to the ambush.
The blessed tapir in front of him was also apparently oblivious to the approaching dangerous aura, still "squeaking" and munching on the leaves, intoxicated by the fresh taste of food. The few stout branches near the ground had been gnawed into bare-rod commanders, hanging low feebly.
Qiao Hua moved forward extremely slowly. According to his estimates, if he could sneak forward for another ten meters, he could even kill this 400-pound tapir in seconds by a sudden attack, and there would be no need to waste his body and maneuver with it.
Ten meters has almost reached the limit of being able to hide for Qiao Hua. The reason why he set the distance of his attack on tapirs so close was actually mainly to challenge himself. Being able to successfully carry out such an ambush is undoubtedly an extremely rewarding thing for any carnivore.
five meters;
four meters;
three meters;
……
Before Qiao Hua suddenly appeared, the tapir stopped moving in its mouth for some reason, and was turning its head to look to the side, as if something had appeared.
Qiao Hua was surprised, thinking to himself that his breath was detected by the other party?
Just as he was hesitating whether to make a move in advance, a big bird with brown feathers suddenly burst out of the forest on the other side, opened its huge beak, and pecked at the tapir's head with a "bang".
The giant bird's degree was so fast that Qiao Hua barely saw where it came from, and he heard a miserable scream from the big tapir, turned around and stumbled towards Qiao Hua.
A stream of crimson blood had poured out of the tapir's head. Looking closely, you can see that the part that was pecked by the giant bird just now has lost a piece of skin the size of half a palm, and it seems that the injury is not light.
What does this mean, halfway to a trip to bite the gold?
Qiao Hua knew that this large bird was called the crown moa, and it was a carnivorous bird that was used to hiding in the forest. If you trace the origin, you and this big bird can actually be regarded as distant relatives, because birds are originally descendants of dinosaurs, and they are lucky to survive after the dinosaurs were completely extinct.
The crested moa in front of me has a huge beak, a body more than two meters long, and two hind legs are very thick, and the place where the forelimbs should have grown has become two small wings, which looks extremely funny.
Even though its body is covered in thick feathers and its body structure has changed considerably, the crested moa still retains part of the form of a dinosaur and retains the ferocious nature of a carnivorous dinosaur.
Seeing that the big tapir that he had been lurking for a long time and wanted to attack was running towards him, Qiao Hua was a little stunned for a while.
Happiness came too suddenly, can the prey still be sent to the door by itself?
Qiao Hua threw the spear he was holding in his claws on the ground, and just wanted to jump out of the grass and bite the throat of the big tapir that was only a few meters away from him, when the huge crested moa behind it suddenly intercepted the front of the tapir with great speed, and the huge beak pecked at the other party's head again.
It was so fast that the frightened tapir had no chance to dodge at all!
"Click!"
This crisp sound made Qiao Hua couldn't help but be shocked. Apparently, the tapir's skull was shattered by the impact of the long beak of the crested moa.
Looking at the position where the crested moa pecked down, Qiao Hua's position was exactly the same twice. It seems that the first attack is just a foundation, and the second attack is the real fatal blow!
Although the crested moa and the tapir are about the same in length, the latter has no ability to resist in the face of the former. The tapir whimpered lowly, and quickly fell to the ground and convulsed. After a while, a large hole was pecked out of its head, and its entire body was completely motionless.
At this time, the crested moa was still pecking at the tapir's body indiscriminately, and if you looked closely, almost every time it pecked at the tapir's head. From time to time, there is a "click" sound of a skull cracking, which sounds creepy.
Tens of seconds later, the crested moa had completely shattered half of the tapir's skull, and then put its huge beak into the skull to peck at the brain.
"Da-da-"
The sound of the upper and lower beaks colliding with each other sounds like they are eating with relish.
Presumably this guy has a soft spot for brains and is not interested in the flesh on his body. After eating almost all the brains in the tapir's head, the crested moa raised its head and smacked its mouth with interest.
However, a different kind of ominous aura spread from the surroundings, which made the big bird feel a little surprised. It looked to the left and right, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong, then turned its head to look behind it.
A dinosaur's big face appeared three or four meters away from it, its expression was gloomy and cold, and its eyes were full of murderous energy.
What frightened the crested moa even more was that the dinosaur was still holding a stick with a pointed head in its claws, and the tip was aimed at its own body!
