"Is it dead?" asked the madman, lying on the ground, excitedly.
"Dead, right?" Chen Jian threw the question to Huang Aimian.
"Well," he said, looking up at his palm, the rough bark had already cut several wounds of varying shades, and the sap was congealing with the blood, "We'll die soon, and we'll have an hour or two to go." He deliberately used the word "hour" instead of "hour."
The madman didn't care whether they lived or died, but shouted loudly for Chen Jian to separate his hands and feet. His body had twisted like an entangled mass of snakes, unable to unravel it with his own power.
Chen Jian felt that the madman's current appearance was very disgusting, like some kind of Cthulhu creature, and even his hands and feet had been assimilated and grown into a similar appearance.
He straightened the madman's body with brute force and asked what had happened as they left.
The madman proudly told them that not long after they left, several green-eyed birds flew to the Yellow Emperor Mountain, and they tried to remove the thunder drums from the vulture's wings, and six green-eyed birds carried the thunder drums inside the house, while the others waited outside the house—because they could not leave the house when they entered the house, and some birds were destined to die, so the wise birds were distributed in this way.
The madman tries to stop them, only to find that there are still two green-eyed birds still pecking at the rope. In desperation, he had only one choice: either stop the green-eyed bird from throwing the thunder drum out of the house, or imprison the vulture to prevent it from flying away.
In fact, it just seems that there are two options - the madman thinks very clearly, even if he stops the green-eyed bird from moving the thunder drum, once the vulture is free, the thunder drum will still be taken away.
With the mentality that he could keep one of them, he was quick with his eyes - as for whether it was quick with his eyes and hands, Chen Jian was skeptical of this madman's statement - climbed up the beam along the column, jumped and hung on the vulture's wings, and used his own body to prevent the green pupil bird from untying.
Hearing this, Chen Jian felt strange: "You are blocking the left wing of the vulture, can't those birds just peck at the right wing?"
"Rose, you're so stupid!" the madman still likes to taunt people as always, "At that time, the white girl cut the rope and loosened the rope all over her left wing, otherwise the two green-eyed birds would not have been able to bite the rope at all, it was an artifact left by the Yellow Emperor!"
Huang Aimian nodded after hearing this: "Tie the Sky Chain, I know this rope, legend has it that it is not afraid of cloud fire, the Yellow Emperor originally wanted to use it to wrap the entire sky, and the birds could not land, so they were all burned to death by cloud fire." ”
"It's really a whimsical countermeasure," Chen Jian couldn't help but sigh, "Why didn't the result come true?"
"There must not be enough rope!" muttered the madman.
Huang Aimian shrugged: "I don't know, it's probably the sky, where there is no lanyard." ”
Chen Jian thought that this was a reason, but wrapping the sky with a rope was a fool's dream, and there were thousands of reasons to veto it. The Yellow Emperor must have found that people could not realize this great idea, so he had to retreat to the second best thing to protect the artifact.
The madman's bones were growing slowly, and his confused brain was awakened, and he suddenly noticed that this man named Huang Aimian was talking very strangely, so he pointed to his nose and said:
"Hey, why do you talk to a big man, mother-in-law?"
"Do you care if others talk like that?" Chen Jian glanced at him, subconsciously defending Huang Aimian, who was also a traverser.
"You go on and talk about what happened after that. Aren't there a lot of green-eyed birds in the house, and why was there only that lark left when we came?"
"It's all fed to the vultures. ”
"Huh?"
The madman said, "Because the vultures haven't eaten for a long time." It's not like we can starve to death, it starves to death, and in order to delay a little longer, the green-eyed bird sacrifices itself to the vulture except for pecking me. ”
Chen Jian felt that some kind of spirit touched his heart, he seemed to see the picture of the green-eyed bird actively burrowing into the vulture's mouth, the balance of life was bumpy in an instant, he frowned, he didn't know what kind of mood those birds with lower status had to dedicate their only once life to their "superiors".
However, he immediately forced himself to dispel this reverence.
"That's stupid...... he muttered in a low voice, "they can take your meat in their mouths and feed it to the vultures." ”
"Huh?" the madman was terrified.
"They won't do that," the bird monster master Huang Aimian just showed his deep knowledge, "the birds are all arrogant, and the yellow-eyed bird won't eat the food in the mouth of the green-eyed bird, which is inferior to itself." ”
"Ah, there's that kind of setting. ”
"Settings?"
"Habits. ”
"Okay. ”
The madman lived in ancient times, and he was accustomed to the strange words of the new prisoners, and he went on to speak of his feat:
"And then I've been persevering until now, and I've finally waited for you guy!" he knocked Chen Jian's shoulder in annoyance, "It's only been a long time since I've seen you, and my little body has recovered! I can't see that you are still a delicate boy." What did you eat?"
Chen Jian almost forgot about this stubble, he couldn't help but shudder at the thought that he might experience an even more terrifying punishment at any time.
"We've seen the judge......" he said uneasily.
"Judge, the scythe madman?" the madman's eyes widened.
"Yes, but strangely, we found him in the tomb of the mountain mover. ”
"You're going to Center Mountain? Oh - you were going to Center Mountain, where did everyone else go?"
Chen Jian glanced at Huang Aimian complainingly, and replied, "A lot of things happened on the road, and we got separated. Let's not talk about these for a while, Emperor Shaohao has already sent someone - bah, sent the bird to cross the border, we must hurry up and join the large army, and ...... "Huang Aimian took the initiative to attack the Yellow Pupil Bird of the Bird Country just now, it should be regarded as a betrayal of the oath, right?"
He used his eyes to ask for Huang Aimian's meaning.
"It's not safe here, let's go. Huang Aimian had already thought of this, nodded calmly, turned around and walked out of the house.
He wasn't afraid of being caught by a bird, and his spirit could still wander around because of the depersonalization that he couldn't perceive, but he had a more pressing desire to accomplish at the moment - to blow Rose to death.
He whispered to Chen Jian, "You haven't forgotten our agreement, have you?"
Chen Jian was slightly stunned, feeling humiliated but helplessly replied:
"Yes. ”
Thinking that he still owed Huang Aimian an an explosion, Chen Jian always felt a pimple in his heart.
What to do...... He set his eyes on Huang Aimian, who was walking in front, and his gaze gradually became cold.
"What are you doing standing stupidly!" the madman patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go, I don't want to be in this place for the rest of my life." He rubbed his restored arms and muttered out of the room, followed by Chen Jian.
In the distance, there was a faint chirping of a ghost car, and it seemed that it was coming this way.
Chen Jian couldn't help but think, how did the Yellow Emperor lead the human tribes to defeat Emperor Shaohao in the past? These birds that can use all kinds of tricks look impeccable, Huang Aimian just provided the idea of poison attack, but the ghost car bird flew so high that it couldn't throw the poison arrow wood on it.
Perhaps Huang Aimian knows the details of the human-bird war, and he has the advantage of being human.
Chen Jian walked to Huang Aimian's left and said, "You know a lot of the inside story of the Bird Country, but you have betrayed the oath, and Emperor Shaohao may kill you first." ”
"Hmm...... It's possible. ”
"So, listen to my command well, don't go on a business trip, otherwise none of us will have a good life. ”
Huang Aimian nodded, he understood the implication of this sentence was not to let himself suddenly kill people.
He smiled with a chill: "Don't worry, without the guano provided by Sui Ou, you can't make explosives." ”
"Other guano can't do it?" Chen Jian also planned to let him blow up the black abyss, but now he doesn't even have a way to get the raw materials?
"Maybe, I haven't tried. ”
Chen Jian thought that he couldn't expose his intentions too obviously, so he coughed lightly and said, "That's great, at least I'm safe now." ”
"yes. ”
"What are you talking about here, like birds!" the madman suddenly poked out his ostrich-like head from between the two, startling Chen Jian.
"Nothing—you don't see Bai Yao here?"
"White girl, I should have asked you, Rose, but you left me behind. ”
Chen Jian didn't respond to the madman's accusation, but thought about where Bai Yao and the others went. Their difference is not far from the Yellow Emperor Mountain, and this area has not been invaded by the Bird Country, with Bai Yao's level, even if they control the White Dragon to send the Ye Gang to the Yellow Emperor Mountain in batches, they should have arrived a long time ago.
What happened after the separation?
If it's not the bird country attack, then there is something wrong inside......
An ominous premonition haunted Chen Jian's heart, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace, even if he didn't have any direction.
