2. Fusion Recipe (1)
Staring at the corpse of the leopard for a moment, Yang Xiao's mind immediately came alive, although he didn't know why this leopard died, but there was such a big lump of protein in the near wax moon, which was much stronger than rat meat.
He didn't care how this guy died, it was not easy to survive in this dangerous dense forest, after making sure that the leopard was dead, Yang Xiao immediately jumped on the corpse, put his head into the bloody wound, pecked, and while pecking, he stretched out his hook and claw, and kept pulling on the corpse.
This claw can't be counted on to make some tools, but if you use it to cut flesh, you can use it to the fullest.
After cutting off the flesh, Yang Xiao did not eat it immediately, it fluttered its wings and flew into the sky with the flesh and blood of the leopard, and flew into its own tree hole. Although Ru Mao drinks blood, but after all, he is a human mind, just eat a full meal on the ground, but I am afraid that it will not be long before this corpse will be found by other animals in the dense forest, only while those strong scavengers have not arrived, quickly grab the maximum benefit, this is the most in line with the current way of survival.
After flying up and down more than a dozen times, Yang Xiao cut off one of the leopard's most developed hind legs, and at this moment, he couldn't continue.
The animals in the forest came from all directions after smelling the blood, and the first to arrive was the big hovering birds, which looked similar to the crows that Yang Xiao had met in his previous life, but they were larger, more than a foot long.
Compared with half-hangers like Yang Xiao, they are professional scavenging birds, and after they fall densely from the sky to the ground, they will peck at the leopard's carcass, and they will not let go of the corners and corners, and the bones cut out by Yang Xiao are pecked and swallowed by them.
In a short time, several wolverines with green eyes staggered out of the jungle, and they swooped down on the corpse, driving away all sorts of scavenging birds that had fallen from the sky, and making a noise on the ground, and before long the hapless leopard was broken down to bones.
Yang Xiao naturally did not get involved in the battle below, at this moment he was sitting in the high hole, eating leopard meat, while looking at the other animals below who were fighting for the corpse, compared with those animals competing for food, he was a little more calm.
From the perspective of human beings, these meats seem to be a small fortune at this moment, but Yang Xiao is not satisfied, he sits in the cave, and can't help but think about it again.
It's been a few years since I came to this world, and Yang Xiao also has some understanding of the changes in the solar terms in the forest, which is about to enter winter, and it is becoming more and more difficult to find animal food in the forest.
This kind of thing of running away after eating only one heart and liver seemed a little unbelievable to Yang Xiao, and he felt that this thing was definitely not done by animals.
......
Time flowed quietly in the wind and snow, and soon, a month passed. The dense forest is firmly covered with snow, and the temperature is getting lower day by day.
Yang Xiao's life is okay with the help of leopard meat, even if he doesn't hunt mice, he has gained weight in the cave. If it was a human in a previous life, he would probably be distressed by this, but in this dense forest, the larger size undoubtedly means that his position on the food chain can be higher, although it is just an owl, he can grow so big by nature, but even if he becomes the big one in his kind, then his territory and range of activities can be larger.
On this day, the snow was unusually heavy, and Yang Xiao was sleeping in the cave, and suddenly, he was awakened again by the sound of birdsong in the distance.
This time the whine was much farther away than the last time, but the fear in the chirping was still as sensitive as ever to Yang Xiao. He immediately pricked up his head and came out of the hole, listening carefully in the direction from which the whine was coming from.
The cries came from the dense forests in the eastern area, mixed with the sound of wings flapping.
Yang Xiao didn't run this time, and he couldn't run either.
As an owl, he barely has any vision during the day, and everything he sees is extremely blurry, and leaving the cave at this time is looking for death.
He could only peck two branches with his mouth, pull twice with his legs, and block the hole tightly, and then he stood by the mouth of the cave, quietly listening to the sounds outside, listening and pretending to sleep.
The sound of the birds came first, followed by a dull roar, mixed with the creaking of tree trunks and branches.
Yang Xiao was uneasy, it was daytime at the moment, he really couldn't do anything, he could only pray that chaos would stay away from him.
Finally, the roar and crash ended.
There was no sound in the forest for a while, and the silence lasted for more than an hour. Then, Yang Xiao heard the soft sound of wings fluttering in the sky, as well as the rustling of snow in the snow on the ground, and at the same time, there was a faint trace of blood in the air.
This bloody breath was like a signal for the canteen to open, attracting those carnivores in the dense forest.
Yang Xiao estimated that there was a chance that something similar would happen to him before, but this time the location was not on his territory, and it was also daytime, even if he had the idea of getting a piece of the pie in his heart, but Xiao would never go out during the day.
This precept is firmly engraved in his veins, more profoundly than any knowledge.
Finally, the dim day is over.
Yang Xiao shook his wings, and his big eyes opened in the twilight.
The winter twilight disappeared faster than expected, and it jumped out of the hole, shook its wings, and looked straight in the direction of the day's sounds.
Under the dark gray sky, a large group of carnivorous birds were rattling in the sky, all kinds of birds.
Yang Xiao did not hesitate to spread his wings, jumped down from the branches, and swept towards the place where the birds were flying and circling.
After so much time, and with so many birds flying there, safety must be safe, but there is definitely not much food left.
In the gliding, the distance of several kilometers was fleeting, and soon, Yang Xiao came to the place where the birds were flying.
In the snow, there was a huge snow ape three people tall, perhaps, once a snow ape.
At the moment, it is probably a skeleton of bones, lying on the snow in a patch of red.
Next to the red bones, there were several huge white wolves, lying on the snow, constantly licking their red paws, it seemed that they were already full, and at the moment they were in charge of feeding a few unusually strong iron-gray birds.
Yang Xiaoxiao recognized the large birds, they were members of the vulture family, they were twice the size of the owl like him, they were among the most ferocious birds in the jungle, and the diet even included some juvenile fawns.
The eagles were perched above the carcass, a few were in charge of guarding, staring at the other birds on the branches, and the others were feasting on the corpse of the great ape, with a clear division of labor, apparently with a certain intelligence.
Birds that dare to fall from the branches to snatch food are quickly driven away, and they are not allowed to get touched. But that doesn't stop the small, hungry birds in the trees from jumping down from time to time to fight for some minced meat.
Yang Xiao naturally won't go down, maybe those astute birds can fight for some minced meat in his dexterity, but Yang Xiao can't, his size is not as exaggerated as the vulture, but it is not like a bird that can rely on some minced meat to satisfy his stomach, it is embarrassing to not go up or down, fortunately, he still has some surplus food, and he can't touch the moldy heads of these vultures for some residues.
He just stared at those huge eyes, relying on extremely keen night vision, and watched the scene of the food competition from afar.
Although the snow was as lively as the animal meeting, Yang Xiao didn't think that any of the beasts present could kill the giant snow ape.
Like the leopard before it, these things are the top animals in the forest, and there are almost no natural predators. Especially this snow ape, Yang Xiao has never seen this size in the past three years.
But the overlord of this forest is now dying in the snow so desolately. The corpses didn't eat much, what was this doing, and what was it about?
Yang Xiao thought of the wriggling white hair he saw that night, and a string burst in his heart, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky. The double moon has slowly risen over the horizon, and it is clear that this is a completely different world from Earth.
As he was watching, suddenly, there was the sound of rumbling and shaking footsteps in the distant snow, and in the footsteps, there was a terrible roar.
The white wolves lying on the snow stood up in one fell swoop, grinning and retreating, and the vultures that were lying on the bones to feed also raised their heads, flapped their wings, and flew high into the air, quacking and screaming.
As the ground shook, a smaller snow ape rushed out of the dense forest, wailing, struggling to drive away the birds from the ape's bones, and then, on its knees, hugged the bones, and beat its chest and feet.
Yang Xiao looked at this scene under the cover of pine needles in the distance, and his huge eyes narrowed.
Those beasts and vultures competing for food may not understand or care, but Yang Xiao can clearly see that the small snow ape already has a certain intelligence, it is grieving, maybe the dead snow ape is its companion.
