Chapter 258: The Egg Hugger
The thunderous torrent is getting closer.
Sandwiched between the cliffs, the muddy rapids rushed towards the end of the sky, the water littered with broken branches and half-floating animal carcasses.
The Silky Silver Heron looked down with some fear, flapping its wings and slowing down.
Ye Xi commanded it to approach Broken Feather.
In the short time just now, Broken Ling had pulled the little dinosaur up from the flood, and now it was clutching its tail with one hand and the cliff with the other, gritting its teeth and struggling to climb up.
Although the torrent rumbled like thunder beneath his feet, Broken Ling was still keenly aware of movement behind him. He quickly looked back, only to find that his witch was standing on the back of the silky silver heron, looking at him with a dark face.
Broken Ling was startled, and as soon as his hand loosened, the two-meter-long little dinosaur suddenly fell.
Poof.
Splash a huge mud wave.
Ye Xi carried the person to the back of the mercerized silver heron.
Broken Ling grabbed the silver heron feathers, and watched the little dinosaur that fell into the torrent being quickly washed away, with a pity on his face, and it looked like he even wanted to fish again.
Ye Xi watched the little cub grind his teeth, and planned to go back and teach a good lesson later.
The silky silver heron flapped its wings and flew upwards in the face of the torrential rain.
Suddenly, Broken Ling pointed at the flood and shouted, "Wu, you see there is a person in the water!"
Ye Xi followed his gaze and found that there was really a living person floating in the flood.
The man clutched a floating broken log in one hand and a giant egg in the other, his eyes half-squinted, already drowsy.
Ye Xi hurriedly drove the mercerized silver heron down to save people.
The silky silver heron was forced by Ye Xi's obscenity, so he could only flap his wings and chase after the man. In just a few moments, the man had been swept far away by the flood.
Thundered.
The flash torrent was deafening, and the silky silver heron ventured past the roaring flood. Ye Xi hugged its neck with one hand, and the whole person leaned out, and when he passed the person, he grabbed the person's hand on the driftwood, and dragged the person to the bird's back.
The mercerized silver heron was not very large, and there were three people sitting on its back at once, and it was almost crushed into the flood, and it barely flapped its wings before it flew high again and flew towards the cliff.
Back in the cave, Ye Xi immediately put the drowning man on the ground.
This is a burly warrior, with a square mouth and a wide nose, and his eyebrows are like swords, and he can see that he has some origins, and the animal skin clothes he wears and the bone knife he hangs on are not ordinary.
This man must have been floating in the flood for a long time, and even if he was rescued, he was not awake, but one of his hands still held the egg tightly, and he did not have the slightest intention of relaxing.
Something that can make an unconscious person still subconsciously hold onto it...... Ye Xi couldn't help but glance at the egg.
The egg was about the size of an ostrich egg, and the shell was milky white with a fiery red pattern on it, so it was impossible to tell which animal it was.
Ye Xi dragged the man up, carried it face inward on his shoulder, and pressed his shoulder on his abdomen.
After two strokes, the man spat out a large puddle of muddy water and woke up coughing.
Ye Xi put the person on the ground.
The man first glanced at Ye Xi blankly, then looked around anxiously, as if he was looking for something, and then finally calmed down when he saw the egg in his hand.
“...... You saved me?"
Seeing that people were fine, Ye Xi smiled a little: "Yes, you we found in the flash flood." ”
The man touched the egg in his arms, exhaled a long breath, and said, "My name is Fu, and this time thanks to you." ”
"You're welcome, it's just easy. ”
Xiao glanced at Ye Xi and Duan Ling: "Who are you?"
Ye Xi said casually: "It's just a passerby." ”
He smiled, his smile mixed with an indescribable evil spirit. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay passerby, I'm a little hungry now, let's slaughter a bird and lay down my stomach, can you eat together?"
After saying that, the aura on his body changed suddenly, and the aura of a powerful warrior diffused, and he pulled out his bone knife and walked towards the silky silver heron standing at the entrance of the cave.
The silky silver heron, drenched in the rainstorm and shaking its feathers, saw the crane come and screamed sharply, and the frightened one immediately flapped its wings and flew out of the cave.
"Wait!" Ye Xi shouted.
He stopped, looked back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It was this bird who brought you up just now. ”
Xiao frowned and glanced at Ye Xi, then suddenly turned around and walked towards the cave: "Okay, there is a big one in it, since it's better to eat it like this." ”
The female silky silver heron was shaken by the skull, and in fright, she spread her wings and made an attack pose.
"There's still pterosaur meat on the ground that hasn't been eaten, so you can eat this. Ye Xi hurriedly said.
He stopped, and there was a flash of anger in his eyes, but when he turned around, his face was already calm, and he dragged out his tone and said lazily: "Okay, you saved me, you have the final say." ”
The hay had been burned, and the pterodactyl meat placed on it had become cold and hard.
He didn't care, he tore the meat in a big gulp, and after a while, he ate all the remaining meat, and the hungry Jieling only had time to catch a little.
Xiao clutched his stomach and sighed in satisfaction, leaned against the mountain wall, and squinted at Ye Xi.
"You guys are quite bold, you dare two people to hang outside like this, if I'm not mistaken, then the little cub is just a first-level warrior, what about you?
Ye Xi smiled: "It's only level four." ”
"Level 4?" Fu smashed his mouth and grinned at Ye Xi, "That's really bold." ”
After that, he yawned, put the egg in his arms, held it in both hands, leaned against the mountain wall, and closed his eyes: "I'll sleep for a while, don't wake me up." ”
After speaking, the snoring sounded, very evenly, and it was obvious that he had fallen asleep quickly.
Broken Ling glanced at Yu indifferently and started to clean up the wreckage on the ground. He didn't like this guy, not only did he speak so unceremoniously to Wu, but he also grabbed his meat to eat.
The Mercerized Silver Heron family was frightened just now, and the husband and wife picked up a few chicks together, got up from the nest and walked out of the cave - this is about to abandon the nest.
Ye Xi stopped them, glanced at them lightly, and then said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't move the nest." ”
It is not easy for this family to make such a nest on the cliff, and now that the wind and rain are outside, where can they go to live, not to mention that the chicks are still young.
The silky silver herons were not only afraid of the unruly, but also afraid of Ye Xi, and when they saw Ye Xi blocking them, they didn't dare to go anymore, so they could only retract into the nest again.
It's getting dark.
Ye Xi and Duan Ling listened to the snoring, and they also became sleepy, the weather was a little cold, they built a fire next to the cave wall, and lay down next to the warm bonfire and fell asleep.
............
Late at night.
Fu, who had been sleeping against the mountain wall, suddenly opened his eyes.
At this time, the bonfire had not yet burned out, and a small dim flame was constantly flickering.
Ye Xi and Duan Ling were lying by the fire and sleeping soundly, breathing evenly. The Mercerized Silver Heron family also fell asleep, with their heads tied in their fluffy feathers, and the family snuggled up to each other.
After sweeping his gaze, the corners of his mouth pulled slightly.
Feeling his body regaining strength, he carefully placed the egg on the ground, then stood up, stretched, and gently pulled out the bone knife.
Then he dragged the bone knife like this, smiled, and walked towards Ye Xi step by step.
It was still raining outside the cave, and the sound of the dripping rain drowned out all sounds, including footsteps on the ground and the sound of the tip of a knife gently slashing across the ground.
