After entering the dense forest, the two of them walked cautiously toward the location of the spiritual bird...
Although it was already noon and the sunlight was strong and hot, the light could not penetrate the layers of leaves, and the dense forest was still dark and deep.
The dark wind that penetrates all around makes the bushes rustle, like the ghostly sound in the abyss, which makes one's hair stand on end. From deep in the jungle, the creepy screams or howls of monsters are heard from time to time. Or howl...
The jungle is still full of dangers.
Zhou Yun stopped, looked around and then landed on a bush.
"What's the matter, Yun?"
"We enter alone like this, the target is huge, and it will also attract the attention of the surrounding monsters. Maybe at this moment, there are several monsters peeping at us in the dark."
"We all have weapons, don't be afraid of them!"
"It's easy to deal with one or two, but what if there's another group?"
Zhou Yun's words made Liu Hanyang's expression become tense. He looked around, and the more he looked, the more he felt that there were countless eyes in the darkness staring at them eagerly...
"We have to disguise ourselves," she said, striding over to the bushes.
He understood what she meant, and immediately came to the bush and imitated her and squatted down.
The two began to break off branches from the bushes, and they broke a lot in less than a cup of tea.
"Get down, Hanyang, I'll help you disguise."
He lay on the ground, and she began to disguise him, first weaving a frame around his body with longer branches, and then inserting branches of different lengths with leaves on the frame.
About 10 minutes later, a thick layer of leaves covered his body, making him look like a tree man, blending into the surrounding environment.
"The craftsmanship is pretty good, it looks really similar!" he praised.
She smiled calmly: "It's my turn. I'll copy the gourd and draw the scoop. Can you do it?"
"It should be no problem, but you can guide me."
She leaned down, and he picked up a branch casually, gesturing with his hands, but he didn't know how to start.
"It's not that easy, is it?"
He smiled bitterly, and then handed the branch into her hand.
"According to my body shape, tie a few circles around my body first, and then use other branches to fix them lengthwise. Come on, tie them up from the waist first, step by step..."
Amid her frequent corrections and his rush, it took 30 minutes to complete a frame based on Zhou Yun's body shape. The next step was to insert branches with leaves. This step was completed by him. Handy.
The two of them crawled deeper into the jungle. Whenever they heard rapid footsteps from all around, they immediately stopped and lurked quietly, waiting for some large animals to pass by before continuing to crawl.
"It was really hard for our ancestors. Fortunately, they evolved to walk upright. I already had backache after climbing more than 30 meters." He said, beating his waist with his hand.
"Our ancestors should have been in trees to begin with, right?"
"They would occasionally move on the ground. It was this occasional change, coupled with changes in the environment, that gave us humans the ability to walk upright. This started a vigorous history of human civilization."
"I hope that this expedition to the universe will once again start a great revolution for mankind, allowing the fire of human civilization to be passed down from generation to generation in every corner of the universe."
"Definitely!" he said, clenching his fists.
After a moment, he turned to look at her and asked with concern: "How are you, are you tired?"
"I'm alright."
The two continued to crawl forward, encountering various animals during the process, including large herbivores, cruel and ferocious beasts, and some animals that amazed them. They were exuding a faint blue color. The light has a pair of broad wings, like a butterfly or a dragonfly, as light and charming as an elf.
After crawling in the jungle for about 20 minutes without any danger, the two finally arrived at the bottom of the canyon where the spiritual bird was trapped.
The two men were hiding by the nearby bushes, about 30 meters away from the valley bottom. Their perfect camouflage blended in with the surrounding environment. It was impossible to spot them unless you looked carefully.
This is also
In the place where there had been a conflict with the beast that looked like a tyrannosaur, the remains of several beasts were lying on the ground, and more of them were piles of minced meat.
Two big trees crossed and fell to the ground. The huge tree crown occupied most of the open space and covered the bottom of the canyon. There were more than a dozen young beasts playing with each other on the trees and on the surrounding ground, which looked helpless. Carefree and innocent.
The two large trees that were once their home have fallen to the ground.
Zhou Yun blamed herself a little, with a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes. She and Liu Hanyang destroyed these two big trees, which was equivalent to destroying the home where the beast cubs depended on for survival.
"We didn't do it on purpose. We didn't know there were them in the trees before we started, let alone that such beasts would live in the trees. Don't you think so, Yun?"
"Hey, no matter there are a thousand reasons, after all, we destroyed their home."
"This is the universe. There are still many things we don't understand. We don't have to blame ourselves too much for our unintentional actions. Perhaps, under our feet, we are destroying the home of another group of young lives."
She sighed and nodded.
The two of them turned their attention to the big tree again. They noticed that there were several adult beasts standing next to the cubs. They seemed to be the mothers of the cubs. The mature beasts in the group had disappeared, and they might be looking for them. In the new habitat, they either went to look for food, or they have not returned while chasing the two of them.
The two of them looked up at the cliff that looked like a line of sky. To their delight, the spirit bird still landed on the raised rock, without the previous fear and uneasiness.
It turned out that the raptor hovering in the sky had flown away. With no hope of hunting, it chose to give up.
The threats from the air and the ground were eliminated in both directions, which completely relaxed the spirit bird's mind. However, due to an injury to one of its wings and uncertainty about the situation on the ground, it did not fly to the bottom of the valley.
Perhaps, it is waiting for the arrival of Liu Hanyang and Zhou Yun.
The two of them stared quietly at the wild beast cubs playing and playing on the ground and on the fallen trees. Liu Hanyang slowly stretched out his hand, and arcs of light surged from his hand...
He activated the dark matter thought weapon and aimed at a female beast that was closer...
"No!" Zhou Yun suppressed his hand and said in a low voice, "If you kill the mother of the cubs, who will take care of these cubs?"
"They are ferocious beasts! How can we reach the bottom of the valley without destroying them?"
"There are many ways to get to the bottom, and it doesn't have to be a massacre!"
After she finished speaking, she looked back and said, "Follow me."
"Where to go?"
"beach!"
"Beach!? We just came from there, why do we have to..."
Before he could finish speaking, she had already crawled back 6 or 7 meters.
In desperation, he bit the bullet and followed behind. Even though he was unhappy in his heart, he knew that his mistakes had led to a series of passivity. She might have her own reasons for doing this.
More than 20 minutes later, the two returned to the beach. They came to the corpse of the big insect. Without saying anything, Zhou Yun took out the dagger and cut on the back of the big insect.
Liu Hanyang understood what she meant. He closed his eyes and listened to a sound of "POP!", and a lightsaber about 1 meter long popped out from his fingertips.
His dark matter mind weapon activated.
He came to her side, waved the lightsaber in his hand, and worked hard to cut the muscles on the insect's back...
Soon, several pieces of meat of different sizes were cut off, and Zhou Yun divided them into palm-sized pieces, and then together with Liu Hanyang, placed a piece every 3 meters on the ground toward the jungle. Let it go.
Finally, the two placed the pieces of meat about 50 meters away from the valley bottom. In this way, a long path of meat pieces was formed from the insect corpse on the coast to the current location.
Zhou Yun's method was to attract the beasts to the corpse of the big insect through pieces of meat, thereby successfully luring them away.
Just when the two were about to place the remaining pieces of meat at the last 50 meters, Liu Hanyang looked up and suddenly found that there were more than a dozen adult beasts standing around them. They lowered their heads and stared fiercely.
Looking at the two of them.
These adult beasts are back.
Zhou Yun simply straightened up and pointed the electromagnetic pulse gun at them with a "Wow!" Liu Hanyang also stood up and pointed his finger at them.
"Hey, take these pieces of meat and eat them!" She said, throwing all the pieces of meat in front of them, and then turned the gun and pointed it at the beast cubs in front of them on the left.
"Boom!" She gestured, making an explosive movement, and then continued to threaten, "I know that you have experienced the power of this gun. You must not want to see me use it to bombard your children again, right? "
The beasts looked at the pieces of meat on the ground, then looked at their cubs in the direction Zhou Yun pointed, as if they understood what she meant.
They still have memories of the previous tragedy.
"We just want to reach the bottom of the valley, and you just want to fill your stomach. Now that there is food, everyone can get what they need, how about it?" She said, slowly moving towards the bottom of the valley.
Suddenly, bursts of jubilant sounds came from behind the beasts. They turned around and saw several adult female beasts and a group of cubs advancing along a path full of meat. From time to time, loud noises were heard. A delicious sound.
Perhaps it was the attraction brought by the food, or maybe Zhou Yun's threat worked. The beasts slowly backed away, then quickly turned around to join the gluttonous feast.
Looking at the beasts' retreating figures, Liu Hanyang let out a long sigh of relief, while Zhou Yun looked at them with a look of relief. This was exactly the result she wanted.
He cast an admiring look at her, with love in his eyes.
"Hey, let's go, what are you staring at?"
"Oh!" He responded and followed her towards the bottom of the valley.
