Chapter 62: The Golden Eagle Abandoned Son
Lu Xing thought for a while: "You don't have to look for a place where no one is around, I heard that there are many settlements that occupy the mountains now, and those can be used as our bases!" ”
"Ah...... Do you use it to rob it, I'm afraid we're choking enough! ”
Qiao Fengtao was stunned when he heard this, you must know that it is a settlement where the mountain is king, and the armed forces are not something that can be underestimated casually.
"Huh...... To put it bluntly, those armed forces that occupy the mountains are a rabble, and there is no cohesion without faith, and I dare say that as long as their leaders are destroyed, those so-called armed forces will immediately collapse, and even defect on the verge of battle. ”
Lu Xinghun said nonchalantly.
Pang Lei looked at him, and suddenly his voice raised several degrees: "Ah Xing, buddy likes your contemptuous tone of voice, and I am a little enthusiastic when I say it!" ”
The others also nodded in agreement: "That's it...... It is! ”
Qiao Fengtao took out a crumpled map from the pocket of his training uniform and flattened it on the ground: "Ah Xing, since we have the idea of robbing the settlement, we might as well go around in a big circle this time and see where there is a suitable place!" ”
Lu Xing thought for a while and said, "Everyone take a look and brainstorm!" ”
To say that the state with the most mountains in China is nothing more than the Qianzhou region, with the most plateaus and mountains, known as 'eight mountains, one water and one field', the state's landform is summarized as: plateau, mountain, hill and basin four basic types, of which 92.5% of the area is mountains and hills. There is no three-foot flat, and the sky is sunny for three days, which describes the topography and weather of Qianzhou.
Because the Qianzhou area is adjacent to Sichuanzhou, Chongqing, Ezhou, Yunnanzhou, Guizhou, etc., before the natural disaster, it was regarded as a transportation hub in southwest China.
However, due to the topography, the population density of the entire Qianzhou is not too large, which leads to the fact that after the cataclysm, the settlements here are relatively scattered and weak, and with the acceleration of the evolutionary process, the wilderness is accelerating the pace of encroaching on human settlements.
Lu Xing pointed to Qianzhou on the map and said: "I think the Qianzhou area has the most settlements that meet our conditions, and there are countless former civilization roadbeds extending in all directions, which can provide great convenience for us to walk in the wilderness in the future, and besides, Qianzhou is almost the hub of the entire southwest region, and the geographical location is also very good, what do you think?" ”
Except for Qiao Fengtao and Pang Lei, who could barely understand the map, the others didn't even know a word, and when they heard Lu Xing's words, the others suddenly felt a pain, and Li Lin looked at the three people who could understand the map with an ugly face.
"If you have any ideas, just say it, we don't even know a few words, and we still recognize a woolen map!"
A group of young people looked at each other, and then laughed, in these troubled times, the vast majority of people in the slums do not know how to read, and there is nothing to be ashamed of.
After laughing for a while, Lu Xing said: "In this case, let's go around the periphery of Qianzhou to see if there is anything suitable, let's write it down first, and then go back to the settlement first, I want to see if the 'Yaksha' hunting team also has this idea of occupying the mountain as the king." ”
When Pang Lei heard this, he suddenly asked, "Are you a member of the 'Yaksha' hunting team?" ”
Lu Xing nodded.
"Damn, in the entire 258 North District, there is no one who does not know about the 'Yaksha' hunting team and the tavern, that group of people is a rare combination in the ghetto, they have been together for more than ten years and have not been separated, and they have not heard of anything unpleasant, which is rare in the ghetto."
Qiao Fengtao then spoke: "Pang Lei is right, I am from the Eastern District, and I have also heard of 'Yaksha', which is very good, and now in this kind of world, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the clear stream representing the human race!" ”
While everyone was chatting, they ignorantly set off a grand plan to set off a frenzy of hope on the land of China in the future.
Lu Xing glanced at the sky: "Let's camp here today, there is a top predator like a leopard, so don't worry about safety!" ”
When the rest of the human race gathered in the settlement, the wilderness returned to its original appearance, and the night except the moon and the stars would shine, and the jungle tonight was mottled with moonlight, not dark.
After eating the two roast rabbits, everyone stayed away from the campfire, because they were all hunters, and they knew that in the wilderness today, the animals were not afraid of the campfire, but would approach the campfire with curiosity.
"Goo...... Cuckoo...... Mutter! ”
The jungle set off by the cries of night owls in the distance was too quiet, and it seemed that even the insects around were rarely heard, Lu Xing frowned, this situation was definitely not normal.
"Gollum!"
Hearing the leopard's snoring, Lu Xing was a little relieved, because with the size of the leopard, it was difficult for a wild beast to pose a threat to it, and the big cat had a strong deterrent power against other beasts.
Sensing it with his eyes closed, he was a little surprised, because this time under the full perception, the range has actually expanded to more than three hundred meters, in the spiritual perception, everything is clearer than before, the comrades-in-arms around him, the blood flow in the blood vessels of the body can be clearly reflected in the mind, and even the growth of plants in the perception seems to be vaguely visible, and everything seems to be quietly changing in the dead environment.
Lu Xing could feel that this feeling of dead silence was the kind of mental state that he had been immersed in the soul level before, and in this state, he could teleport at will.
"Fluttering Ridge...... Fluttering! ”
Suddenly, the sound of birds flapping their wings was heard, and on the edge of perception, two hen-sized birds flapped their wings from a rock wall three hundred meters away and fell.
Perceiving these two things, Lu Xing stood up and was about to rush in the direction of the rock wall, when the leopard next to him opened his eyes and glanced at him, and then fell asleep again.
Pang Lei heard the voice and saw that it was Lu Xing who stood up: "Ah Xing, what's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, you sleep with you, I'll go to the rock wall over there, and I'll be back in a while!"
In the moonlight, the wings of the two hen-like things were obviously not developed, and even if they tried to flap, they still inevitably fell to the ground.
Halfway up the cliff, a large gray shadow crouched on a protruding rock, ignoring the guy who fell to the ground.
Lu Xing used his ability to teleport from the dense forest to the depression under the rock wall, and these two little things made his eyes very hot, because these were the young birds of the two golden eagles.
There is a legend among hunters that the golden eagle is a large fierce bird, and the growth is very cruel, a pair of golden eagle parents, each time they lay eggs, there will be two or more, because the super large amount of food causes the golden eagle parents to have no ability to raise more than two young birds, so when the chicks can move, they will fight with each other, and the weak one will be squeezed out of the nest and become an abandoned outcast.
However, fate seems to have played a joke on the golden eagle group, and the chicks left in the nest are carefully cared for until they are fully fed, and when they are able to soar for nine days, the golden eagle parents will expel them and leave them to fend for themselves.
From the moment of hatching, the golden eagle chicks are taken care of by their parents, and flying is their instinct, but hunting is a skill that requires long-term training to master, so sadly, most of these elves who fly to the sky can't survive the first harsh winter because their hunting skills are too poor.
Those who were the first to be pushed out of the lair, after going through hardships, eventually grew up and became more resilient, and from the moment they flew into the sky, they were destined to become the kings of the heavenly dome.
Lu Xing has seen golden eagles countless times in the wilderness, and after these guys have evolved, they are extremely large, and the wingspan of adult golden eagles can reach more than ten meters or more.
More than once he thought about catching one or communicating with one of them to become friends, like he had with wolves, but adult golden eagles were too vigilant and would hardly get close to humans at a distance of 100 meters, and their keen senses made it difficult for humans or beasts to get close to them.
In addition, the adult golden eagle is too dangerous, Lu Xing has seen it with his own eyes, there are hunters' rifles have not caused effective damage to it, only a few feathers have been shot down, he has also picked up a few golden eagle feathers, the hard ones are almost catching up with the metal, and there is no problem with cutting muscles.
Now he sees two golden eagle discarded children, he is a little overjoyed, if this thing is fed since childhood, very obedient and not to say, and very loyal to the owner, it is very suitable to be used as a falcon, and it is also more face-saving to take it out, and further, as long as you are bold enough, it is not impossible to ride it for nine days, provided that you are not afraid of heights.
After the two golden eagle chicks landed, they chirped and wailed, and one seemed to be a little injured, and walked with a limp, because they had just entered an unfamiliar environment, and the two little ones snuggled together and looked around blankly.
Lu Xing saw the distance, and he teleported to the two golden eagles, and then picked up the young birds with a cat's waist, and entered the dense forest with a teleportation, and then closed his eyes to perceive the adult golden eagle.
This guy seems to have noticed that something is wrong, the two young birds that were squeezed out just now disappeared in the blink of an eye, although it doesn't care whether the abandoned child lives or dies, but watching the young birds disappear still makes it a little uneasy.
"Wow...... Phew! ”
After the adult golden eagle chirped a few times, it jumped to the edge of the nest next to it, looked at the remaining chicks inside, and forgot about the disappearance of the young birds just now.
Lu Xing held two young birds, and returned to the campsite after several teleportations, and the leopard glanced at him, and seemed to be a little puzzled by the two young birds he was holding in his arms, tilting his head to look at it a few times and then no longer paying attention.
Pang Lei hadn't slept since he left, and when he saw him coming back, he immediately ran over and asked, "Ah Xing is back, what are you holding in your arms, pheasant?" ”
Lu Xing glanced at him: "Gotta ...... Brother Lei, what kind of eyes do you have, this is an eagle, I suddenly feel that it is not fragrant when you say it! ”
"Ah...... What...... Is it really an eagle, I'll see! ”
By the moonlight, the two of them looked at the two young birds carefully, and Pang Lei smashed his mouth: "Tut-tut...... They are really golden eagle chicks, Ah Xing, do you know, they are the protector of every hunter, it can bless us not to be blinded by the darkness, and every hunt can be fully loaded! ”
Lu Xing suddenly wanted to punch this product's mouth: "How old is it, it's still so superstitious, you have returned with a full load a few times, can you see human nature in the dark, it is an evolved animal, there were before, but it is not so big, in the future, when these two are raised, buddies sit on its back, go wherever you want, and fly freely for nine days from now on, won't it be windy!" ”
