Chapter 268: Chicks
In the heart of the island, there are all kinds of rare man-eating flowers, which are huge and as fierce as ordinary giant beasts. www.biquge.info At this moment, there was a sudden sound in the silent forest, and if you looked closely, you saw that the flower tube of a cluster of overlord flowers began to shake violently, and several protrusions appeared on the surface from time to time, as if something was struggling desperately inside, and it was about to break out.
The shaking lasted for only a few seconds, and then it calmed down again. Immediately after, several sword qi burst out, and in a flash of red light, the huge flower tube suddenly exploded, turning into countless tiny fragments scattered on the surrounding ground. Without the shelter of the flower tube, the dense vines seemed to have lost their source of energy, and began to wither and shrink, but in an instant, they had lost their vitality. At this moment, a figure swept out of it and staggered forward a few steps before barely steady.
"It's disgusting. Qiushui scolded. I saw that his body was covered with viscous liquid, exuding a fishy smell. He glanced back at the shattered overlord flower, and then took a quick step towards the outskirts of the island. I have to say that although these mucus are disgusting, they still have a certain effect, and in the next journey, Qiushui was attacked by several man-eating flowers, but whenever they got close to Qiushui's body, they stopped hunting, as if they had encountered something terrible, and they evacuated one after another. In this way, Qiushui was able to leave this terror zone safely and return to the edge of the basin again.
Still beside the brook, the autumn water washed away the filth from his body, and when he saw that it was dark, he made a fire here, and caught a few fish from the stream, intending to rest here for a while. This is the first time that Autumn Water has felt the change of day and night, and of course there are lighting measures in the city, which will change the intensity of the light with the change of day and night, but it is still dwarfed by the change in the sky itself. As he grew older, he longed for the sun more and more, hoping to see what this legend could illuminate the entire continent, even once. But so far, no one knows where the sun has gone, and some skeptics have even begun to believe that the sun itself does not exist, just a big lie told by its predecessors. Of course, Qiushui doesn't think so, because Zhu Jue said that there is indeed a sun in their world, rising in the east and setting in the west every day, tirelessly.
Just as Qiushui was wandering, two figures suddenly flew from the distant sky, and Qiushui looked at it and saw that it was a red vulture again! One of the slightly larger red vultures was injured in the previous confrontation with Qiushui, and his flying movements were a little uncoordinated. The other, smaller one, apparently its mate, let out a screech before swooping down on itself.
Qiushui's face turned pale, and he dodged their attack in an instant, and the two red vultures swayed up again, scattering in mid-air, and then launched a flanking attack on Qiushui from two directions. In the face of their sharp attack, Qiu Shui did not dodge, but with a wave of his hand, he shot out two sword qi to counterattack. The female vulture hurriedly turned around, barely dodging the sword qi. And the male vulture was injured in his body, and he couldn't dodge for a while, and was rubbed on his wings by the sword qi, and suddenly fell from the air like a kite with a broken string.
Seeing this, the female vulture let out an angry roar, and then, like a great peng, spread her wings and rushed towards the autumn water. Qiushui stretched out his hands and pressed against the huge body of the female vulture, and took a few steps back on his feet before he could barely stabilize his body. Then he grabbed the female vulture's beak with his hand and flung it outward, hitting the male and flying upside down with him.
A few minutes later, Qiushui patted the soil on his hands, and a smug look appeared on his face. In front of him, two red vultures were tied to their thick trunks by a green vine, their beaks bound by long, tough white leaves, and they could only make a muffled sound in their throats.
"It's you who are asking for your own suffering, but don't blame me. Qiushui shrugged his shoulders and turned back to the campfire. At this moment, the fish on the fire has already been scorched, exuding an unpleasant smell, Qiushui sighed, and lost the interest in eating for a while, so he directly put on the package on his back, and then continued to walk out, hoping to return to the shore as soon as possible to prevent all kinds of accidents.
From time to time, there were bursts of insect chirping in my ears, one after another, so I was not irritable. Before the autumn water had gone far, his stomach was already rumbling, which made him feel a pang of regret, thinking that he should have caught another fish just now, and then went on the road when he was full. At this time, he felt the package on his back move slightly.
"Huh?" Qiushui stopped, turned to look, and found that there was nothing behind him, only dense woods, and owls bobbing their heads in the branches. At the same time, the package moved again, and this time Qiushui clearly felt that something seemed to be hiding in it. Thinking that the golden branches and leaves were still inside, Qiushui suddenly raised his vigilance, and he hurriedly put the package on the ground, and then opened it carefully. The next moment, a pair of round eyes met his four eyes, and the insects around him stopped abruptly.
"Isn't it......" Qiushui gently picked up the little guy in front of him with his hand, it was a young chick, with a bare body, as if it had just been born. If you take a closer look, the golden branches and leaves he worked so hard to find have been bitten by this guy at the moment, and they are miserable. Qiu Shui suppressed the anger in his heart, examined it carefully, and suddenly thought of something, and muttered: "The reason why those two red vultures are eyeing me is because of ......"
At this time, the little red vulture let out a clear sound, and then arched Qiushui's palm with his head, apparently taking him for his mother. Looking at its pleasing appearance, Qiushui hesitated for a moment, then gently put it back into the package. Then, he turned around and returned the way he came.
"I'm just hungry and want to catch two more fish. Qiushui said to himself. Soon, he came to the place where he had just rested again, but the scene in front of him made him stunned for a moment. I saw that there was a mess all around, a few thick trees were broken at the waist, and the place where the red vulture was originally bound was now only a red feather. Qiushui frowned, not knowing what had happened here in the short time he had been gone. At this time, he noticed that there seemed to be a series of huge footprints on the ground not far away, sinking deep into the earth. Qiushui was stunned for a moment, then slowly shifted his gaze along the footprints, and finally fixed on the body of a certain behemoth.
"Oh my God. Qiushui swallowed, an expression of disbelief on his face.
