Chapter 188 Raising Birds
The expedition continued along their planned route.
After leaving the area of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe, the Yuanxing tribe walked for another six days, passing some small bazaars or some medium-sized tribes in the middle of the country, exchanging some things.
Shao Xuan marked the places he passed along the road on the map he had drawn, and even the characteristics of each tribe were marked on it.
Because he had to hurry, he didn't exchange too many things, Shao Xuan just exchanged some very representative items with tribal characteristics or small items with commemorative significance, and traveled lightly.
Of course, when passing through some barren mountains and mountains along the way, the team also encountered some wild beasts, and even fierce beasts. It's just that there are relatively few fierce beasts, most of them are wild beasts, and the people in the long journey team pointed to the map and told Shao Xuan, most of the fierce beasts are in this direction on the map, and that side is exactly the direction where Shao Xuan plans to go to the hometown of the Yanjiao tribe.
It is said that there are very few human tribes living there, and it is a vast mountain forest area, where fierce beasts are often infested, and there are all kinds of unimaginable dangers, and it is a place that every traveler does not want to go.
Shao Xuan had the idea of taking a look in the past, and when he came out, he naturally had to go to the hometown of the Yanjiao tribe to see, to see what kind of secrets the ancestors of Yanjiao had in their hearts, and to see what the "root" that Lao Hao said.
Since the road is different, Shao Xuan naturally has to separate from the distant tribe.
"Are you really going to leave the group? It's dangerous to be alone. After hearing that Shao Xuan was leaving, he persuaded him.
"It's hard to get out of the tribe, and I want to look everywhere. When I'm ready, I'll follow the route to find you. Shao Xuan said.
Along the way, some of the maps in the central part of Shao Xuan have been drawn according to what he knows, although there are still many places where the people of the long-distance team have not been there, and the animal skin scroll is still empty. But Shao Xuan is not in a hurry, just finish it slowly.
After saying goodbye to the traveling team, Shao Xuan walked in the direction of the Yanjiao tribe's hometown that Lao Hao had said. This time, he was the only one, and sometimes in order to hurry, when he encountered a place with more complicated terrain, he would let Chirp take a ride.
A day later.
Shao Xuan looked at the map in his hand. According to the above, this is the territory of the "Lu" tribe, and when approaching the territory of the Ministry, Shao Xuan will ask Chirp to be more careful, and these tribes are very well guarded.
To get to the old place, you need to go around the Lu tribe. The chirping in the air had already made the shouts of people around him, and Shao Xuan also heard some movements. Those people seemed to deliberately restrain their breath, and they did not communicate loudly, they were all silent.
It should be someone from the Lu tribe. It's just that Shao Xuan doesn't know why the other party is so careful, no matter what, Shao Xuan has to be more guarded.
Whew-
The sound of some branches and leaves rubbing against each other, and the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps, did not look like a human movement.
Shao Xuan jumped to a tree, intending to take a look from a high place. Although the people of the Far Traveler team told Shao Xuan, the people of the Lu tribe were not very threatening. But Shao Xuan still has to be cautious, if the other party has a bad attitude. Just let the chirping in the air answer.
Click-
The footsteps were closer, and the speed was very fast, Shao Xuan couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly, but according to the movement of the branches, it could be seen that it was a tall guy who came over.
As the footsteps approached, Shao Xuan hid behind the dense branches. Looking out from between the leaves.
Click-click
When Fang Feng passed by the tree where Shao Xuan was hiding, he paused and turned back.
Shao Xuan held the handle of the knife in his hand, guessing if the other party had found himself. The trees around here are not tall, and now this one is still chosen by Shao Xuan to be more suitable for hiding figures.
Just thinking about it. Shao Xuan saw that the branch below was pulled apart, and he lowered his head, which happened to be on the head of a big bird, and this bird still had a fruit in its mouth. The fruit is from this tree.
Obviously, the bird only found the fruit, not Shao Xuan, but he didn't want to, and when he pulled the branch when he bit the fruit, he saw the person hiding inside.
One man and one bird are so right.
The place where Shao Xuan is hiding is at least five meters from the ground, and this bird's head is less than a meter away from Shao Xuan, which shows the height of this big bird.
With Ah Guang's dire crane in front, Shao Xuan was on guard against such a big bird, and after the branches below were pulled apart, Shao Xuan held the stone knife and planned to slash it.
However, before Shao Xuan could move, the bird screamed, and the crumbs in its mouth fell off, so he turned around and spread his big feet and ran away.
Shao Xuan: "......" is blind to such a big guy!
If it were replaced by Ah Guang's dire crane that used its head as a hoe, it would probably be pecked directly by a bird's beak, right? However, this bird was even more surprised than Shao Xuan, and even ran away in panic and fear as if the little white rabbit had encountered a big bad wolf.
Shao Xuan brushed aside the branches and looked at the bird that had fled like the wind.
Like Ah Guang's dire crane, its upper limbs are also degraded and unable to fly, and its body looks fatter than Ah Guang's dire crane, and its lower limbs are slightly thicker and very fleshy.
Whew-
The shadow in the sky swept down, grabbed the big bird that had not run far, and then flew again.
After chirping grabbed the big bird, a seven-person team rushed out of the woods, they didn't notice Shao Xuan at first, they just stared at the air, shouting and scolding, one of them also projected the spear in his hand, but the chirp flew too fast, and it also bent, and the spear missed a lot.
"Caught!"
"Where did the eagle come from? This eagle has never been seen before!"
A few people over there shouted, and then noticed Shao Xuan standing next to him.
"Who are you?" asked one of them, skeptically.
"I'm passing by, ahem, what, that's just my eagle up there. Shao Xuan saw that although the other party's face was uncertain, he didn't mean to continue throwing spears, so he blew a whistle and gestured into the air.
Chirping grabbed the struggling bird and circled in the sky before landing.
The people over there were also worried that Chirp would directly throw the big bird from the air, but Chirp only threw the big bird in front of Shao Xuan when it was close to the ground, and then quickly flew up, it didn't have a good impression of the person who threw the spear at him.
The big bird that was put on the ground, but there were some claw marks on its body, and it was a little frightened, and it didn't ease up for a while, and when it took a while, it was going to continue to slide, but unfortunately, it was tied up with a straw rope by a few people over there.
"Are you really just passing through?" asked the leader over there, a little better this time.
"Yes, I was resting here when the big bird came running. Shao Xuan said.
"I'm so sorry, I thought the eagle was going to take our bird. The man laughed. He had an impression of every eagle in the vicinity that came to steal food from their tribe, and the one he saw just now was indeed very unfamiliar. Moreover, the domesticated eagle is different from the wild eagle, just now he saw the eagle's talons painted on the painting, but he didn't see it clearly, he guessed that it should be a totem pattern or something.
The Lu tribe is generally reluctant to make enemies with others, so for many tribes, even if they are not close, they will not offend. The young man in front of him can raise such a big eagle, and the tribe he belongs to should also be a relatively large tribe, right?
"The Lu tribe, the rock dove. The man introduced himself.
"Yanjiao Tribe, Shao Xuan. ”
A few people from the Yanjiao tribe looked at each other, as if it was the first time they had heard of it, could it be that it was far away from here?
"You're coming with a long journey?" one asked.
"Well, I just parted with them not long ago. ”
Sure enough, it came from afar. A few people thought.
Looking at the eagle in the sky, the rock dove said to Shao Xuan, "Shao Xuan, can you do us another favor?"
You say. ”
The rock dove briefly said the matter, it turned out that every once in a while, the Lu tribe would transport some of the animals they raised, exchange things with people from other tribes, and then come back, but there was an accident early this morning, and the defect in the fence was not repaired in time, and it was washed out by a big bird, and then several more ran away.
They sent five teams to pursue them in five directions, but they have not been able to find them all.
"So, I want you to ...... The eagle was to help find it and see if it could be found. Iwadove said.
"Okay. It wasn't that difficult, Shao Xuan called it down and said a few words, and then let it fly away.
Three of them, who had been busy all morning, sat down on the ground, thinking that if the eagle could not be found, they would have to continue.
"Hey, it's coming!!" said one of the men who was staring at the sky excitedly.
They had only seen eagles in the sky snatch their livestock before, and this was the first time they had asked an eagle to help recover an escaped livestock.
It was only the first one, and after about ten minutes, the second one was also found. After two of them, Chirp failed to bring back a single big bird.
"There should be no one around here, let's go back and see if anyone else finds it. Iwadove said.
At the same time, in order to thank Shao Xuan, the rock dove also sent an invitation to Shao Xuan. In the small talk just now, Shao Xuan revealed his interest in raising big birds, which is also something that the Lu tribe is very proud of, they like to let people see the results of their breeding, so that they can trade with more people in the future.
"Come with us, we have the largest feedlot in the central region, and many people have traded with us......"
The rock dove brought Shao Xuan into the tribe, and when he talked about raising it, his tone was full of pride.
Shao Xuan, on the other hand, looked at the scene in front of him in surprise.
They stood on the hill and looked out over the low-lying area, where there were hundreds of birds as big as the previous one, and although they looked about the size of the dinosaur, they were docile and vegetarians.
In Shao Xuan's eyes, this is simply a lump of meat! (To be continued......)
