"Meow, meow, meow, meow~"

The red-feathered bird agrees and will take us somewhere else right away~

One minute later.

The red-feathered bird carried Fang Xiaoxiao, Fang Xiaoxiao held Xiaomiao, and Xiaomiao held the egg.

The four red-feathered finches next to them had backpacks hung around their necks, and they flew thousands of meters at a low altitude. They flew to another big tree and placed them in the tree hole.

This tree hole is full of red feathers, and it looks like the place where red-feathered finches once stayed.

Fang Xiaoxiao climbed into the tree hole, and the red feather bird put down its backpack, but did not return immediately. Instead, it continued to fly forward at a low altitude, picking a few fruits on the way before going back.

This was explained by Fang Xiaoxiao in advance, so that no one would see their movements and guess that the eggs were hidden here.

Night falls.

By the river, several people in black sportswear were eating white bread and swatting mosquitoes with their hands.

"Brother, can you do it this time?"

A man with yellow hair squatted on a stone, swatting mosquitoes hard.

"Don't worry. This time, big brother even brought the props from the bottom of the box. Are you worried that you won't be able to get an egg?"

A woman wearing a black peaked cap was sitting at a simple folding computer desk, tinkering with something, and said something casually.

As they spoke, they both turned their heads to the side and looked at the man in the trench coat with a cigarette butt in his mouth.

The man in the trench coat looked in the direction of the big tree, took a long puff of cigarette, and finished the last puff of the cigarette before throwing the cigarette butt on the grass and stamping it out with his foot, "We will take action when it gets dark."

The two of them silently glanced at the sky, which seemed to be completely dark.

"What I mean is, wait until it's completely dark before you do anything!"

"oh."

"Um."

The two of them were not surprised at all by this result.

It seems that they were also unlucky. They were out poaching super creatures and doing a good job. Suddenly, the boss called them back and told them that the big boss's son wanted to eat mutated bird eggs and asked them to go out and look for them.

They will look for bird eggs, but what are the chances of finding one of these mutated bird eggs? Isn't this embarrassing?

But the boss has a lot of money, and he throws out a lot of money, saying that if the matter is done, it will all be theirs.

The boss agreed immediately and took the two of them, climbing mountains and wading in rivers, fishing for birds and fish... Not to mention mutated eggs, they didn't even catch a few live eggs.

They are not suitable for this.

"Alas~"

"Alas~"

The two of them sighed together and said:

"I want to eat hot pot..."

"Want to eat barbecue..."

Gulu gulu~

At this time, all three people's stomachs growled.



Fang Xiaoxiao was also hungry.

Fang Xiaoxiao nestled in the tree hole, pulled out the bread that she disliked during the day, looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Xiaomiao was lying on the egg, sleeping soundly.

If she had known she would spend the night outdoors, she would have brought instant noodles... no, she would have brought a self-heating hotpot.

Paired with two braised chicken feet, no, the more I think about it, the hungrier I get.

If she waited until tomorrow and the eggs hadn't hatched yet, she wouldn't wait any longer and would take Xiaomiao back for a warm meal first.

Fang Xiaoxiao was thinking about food, and fell asleep in a daze.

When she opened her eyes again, she was awakened by the sound of birds chirping.

Accompanied by the shrill chirping of birds, there was a fiery red light shining in the distant woods.

That's...the direction of the red-feathered bird's nest!

Fang Xiaoxiao was instantly awakened.

"Meow meow meow!"

Xiaomiao was also woken up. When she saw the light of the fire, she immediately climbed onto Fang Xiaoxiao's shoulder and pointed in the direction of the bird's nest with her paws, looking very excited.

"Don't be impatient. Let's wait and see. Maybe the red-feathered birds have already won."

Fang Xiaoxiao coaxed Xiaomiao, but her hands were clenched tighter and tighter, and her mind was a little confused.

Now the red-feathered birds must be fighting with the egg thief. Such a large fire there will definitely attract the attention of the forest guards, and someone should come to the rescue soon.

If she asks for help now, it's likely that the fight will subside before help comes. So, she doesn’t need to do anything extra at all…

Years of experience in dealing with things in the past told her that if you can avoid getting involved in such troublesome matters, don't get involved. Otherwise, it will be a thankless task, and it might even cause trouble.

But……

"Kureha!"

At this moment, a sharp scream came from the distant woods.

No, it looks like the red-feathered bird is injured, quite seriously.

"Meow meow meow!"

Xiaomiao's ears twitched and she immediately became anxious. She pulled Fang Xiaoxiao's clothes and went to help.

"Xiao Miao, don't worry, let me make a call first."

Fang Xiaoxiao no longer hesitated, hugged Xiaomiao, and quickly dialed a number with his smart phone.

After the number beeped three times, it was connected.

"Hello, is this the police station? I discovered a malicious poaching incident here..."

After making the call, Fang Xiaoxiao picked up her schoolbag, poured out the green peaches inside, leaving only the bottom layer, and then put the bird eggs in.

She left the remaining backpack and Qingbi Guo here.

"Xiao Miao, let's go."

"Meow!"

One person and one meow began to climb down from the tree. The tree was too high. Even if Fang Xiaoxiao could climb the tree, his hands would be blistered.

But I can’t care about that now.

Fang Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth, let the blisters burst, and got off the tree with his hands covered in blood.

After running wildly until she reached the big burning tree, she slowed down and hid behind a thick tree trunk, carefully poking her head out.

Fang Xiaoxiao carefully observed the movement in front and held down Xiaomiao to prevent it from rushing out.

"Meow!"

Xiaomiao protested softly, indicating that it would go over to help.

"Please calm down!"

Fang Xiaoxiao said to him in a stern tone for the first time: "Look at the current situation clearly first, and rushing over all at once will only cause chaos!"

"Meow……"

Xiaomiao was stunned for a moment, then stopped moving, and like Fang Xiaoxiao, went to observe the situation in front.

There seemed to be three people on the ground not far away, holding strange weapons in their hands, firing cannonballs and nets into the sky.

On the ground in front, several red-feathered finches were caught in a net and were spraying fire randomly nearby.

Under the illumination of the surrounding fire, Fang Xiaoxiao could see that because of their violent struggle, several wounds were cut on their bodies.

On the tree trunk, the red-feathered finches almost surrounded the three people, flying fast, swooping and attacking, or breathing fire.

However, these attacks were all blocked four or five meters away from the three people.

It seemed that these egg thieves were equipped with high-level energy shields.

I just hope they didn’t bring too much energy liquid...

Fang Xiaoxiao looked around and found no red-feathered bird.

Where did it go...could it have been arrested?

Fang Xiaoxiao felt a little anxious, and searched carefully, and finally found it behind a group of red-feathered finches.

The red-feathered bird was lying on a thick branch at this time, blocked by the red-feathered birds. Its body was heaving violently, and it seemed that it was seriously injured.

When she looked carefully, she could even see some dried blood under the tree trunk.

Fang Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it any longer, and looked down at the Zhi Nao time. Ten minutes had passed.

Why hasn’t the rescue team arrived yet?
