"Messenger bird?"
Chen Mo recognized the sudden arrival of the little red penguin at a glance.
Even without using the [Detection Eye], some information about the messenger bird had already appeared in Chen Mo's mind at this time.
This is an elf that was quite unpopular in the previous world.
Chen Mo was able to remember Messenger Bird, first of all, because Messenger Bird appeared for the first time in the official illustrated guide at that time as a real place name and the highest peak in the world - Mount Everest.
As a Chinese, Chen Mo was quite impressed.
Second.
It’s because the messenger bird itself looks quite festive and cute, and according to the official racial characteristics of the messenger bird, it is a very kind-hearted elven tribe with an extremely friendly attitude towards humans. They often help some people in the deep mountains. Human beings in distress.
"Do you think of me as someone who died in a snowstorm?"
Chen Mo looked at the anxious movements of the messenger bird and immediately understood the other party's intention at this time.
For a while.
Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth in his heart.
He is indeed a cute and kind little guy.
"Bah!"
Seeing that Chen Mo and the elves had not moved yet, the messenger bird became a little anxious.
Worried that his call could not reach the other party's ears because of the heavy wind and snow, the messenger bird flapped its wings again and flew down from the treetops.
Chen Mo looked at this scene curiously.
While holding onto its pocket-shaped white tail with one wing, it can still freely use both wings to fly.
It's pretty awesome.
The messenger bird, which had no idea what Chen Mo was thinking at this moment, quickly rushed to Chen Mo and the elves in the face of the wind and snow, waving its wings again and reminding them loudly again.
"Bah! Bah! Bah!" (Come with me quickly! The snowstorm is too big! It's dangerous to stay here!)
Perhaps because he was afraid that Chen Mo wouldn't understand his language, the messenger bird shouted to Pikachu and other elves.
"Bah!" (Quickly advise your trainer!)
"Thank you. Actually, I can understand them if you don't call them Pikachu."
Chen Mo responded loudly with a smile on his face.
It was the first time I heard a messenger bird that humans could understand its own language. Its expression became obviously a little shocked, but the next second, it shouted with an even more surprised expression.
"Bah!" (Then come with me quickly, it's very dangerous here!)
If it was normal, Chen Mo might have followed the messenger bird.
but now.
Chen Mo has more important tasks to complete.
Since his own waveguide was disrupted by this legendary snowstorm, he needed to explore all of the Countermeasures Bureau's daily inspection routes as soon as possible to find the missing Countermeasures Bureau team.
"Sorry, messenger bird, I understand your good intentions, but I have more important things to do now. The wind and snow here are actually not a great threat to us."
After saying that, Chen Mo was planning to show the messenger bird the isolation barrier made of waveguides.
But that's it.
The messenger bird spoke first again in an eager tone.
"Bah! Bah! Bah!" (I really have no ill intentions towards you. I have helped three humans before, and they are now in my home. Please believe me!)
Chen Mo's almost solid waveguide stopped abruptly at this moment.
The next second.
A smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, then I'll ask you to lead the way."
"Bah!" (It doesn't matter, come with me! The snow is getting heavier! It's too dangerous!)
I don’t know if it was the first time I met a human who could understand me, which made me feel excited, or maybe the messenger bird itself was a chatty elf, and was always there while leading Chen Mo. "Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah," the ground dripped and muttered something.
However, after the messenger bird persuaded Chen Mo to follow him home, in order to save energy, he never shouted as loudly as he did at the beginning. In addition, the wind noise around him was always loud, so Chen Mo could only hear a few words clearly. The messenger bird was complaining about the terrible weather.
"Baili..."
The snow in front is getting deeper and deeper. With the messenger bird's height of less than one meter, when walking on the ground to guide the way, one-third of its body has sunk into the snow.
The messenger bird was troubled.
Just when it was about to give a warning to the human behind, and then fly into the sky to continue leading the way, a pair of arms suddenly grabbed its wings and lifted it up directly.
"Bah!?" (What are you doing!?)
"I'll hold you and walk, and then you'll be responsible for showing me the way."
Chen Mo smiled.
The messenger bird glanced at Chen Mo with a strange look.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
Facing a snowstorm of this magnitude, Messenger Bird always feels that the human in front of him seems to be walking more easily than himself...
Could it be that what he said just now are all true?
The messenger bird was full of doubts, but after hesitating for a few moments, he agreed.
after all.
This is not the last time it goes out today, it still needs to save energy.
"Bah!" (Thank you!)
The messenger bird, which was completely unaware that it was transforming from a helper to a person being helped, politely thanked Chen Mo, then raised its free little wing and kept pointing the way to Chen Mo.
It didn't take long.
Under the guidance of the messenger bird, Chen Mo soon came to a cave with a relatively steep terrain.
Before Chen Mo walked in, a red figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, another messenger bird, and behind this messenger bird, three small white heads poked out.
"Looks like a small family of messenger birds."
Chen Mo said silently in his heart.
at this time.
An exclamation suddenly came from the cave in front.
"What the hell! Teacher Mo!?"
Familiar call format.
Chen Mo looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a young man who looked about twenty-five years old, squeezing at the entrance of the cave, looking at Chen Mo's slowly walking figure with a face full of surprise.
In the cave behind him, the voices of a man and a woman could also be heard.
"Teacher Mo? Where is Teacher Mo!?"
"Sun Ping! Can you please stop squeezing at the entrance of the cave? You have squeezed the Messenger Bird family to the edge! How shameless!"
The young man's face exactly matched the young man named 'Sun Ping' among the missing persons given by Dong Jianguo.
Although Chen Mo had suspicions when he heard the Messenger Bird himself say that he had saved three humans, at this moment, when he saw that Sun Ping was safe and sound, his heart was completely relieved.
People safe is good.
——
The elf group of messenger birds has some similarities in their living habits with the real eagles. When building nests, they all like to set up their nests in places with steep terrain, such as cliffs. .
but.
Because they live in the snow-capped mountains where the weather is changeable, facing the occasional blizzards during the snow season, for the health of their children, the messenger bird family will also move their nests when the snow season arrives, where it is not dangerous and can be In a cave hiding from the wind and snow.
Chen Mo took a rough look at the cave in front of him.
Just looking at the space, if it were just the Messenger Bird family living there, the place would be relatively spacious, but if you add in the three members of the Countermeasures Bureau, Chen Mo and Sun Ping, as well as Pikachu, Mizuwa and other elves, the place will become very crowded. .
"Teacher Mo, thank you so much. I really didn't expect that the bureau would send you to find us. Thank you so much!"
Sun Ping was a little excited.
"fine."
Chen Mo smiled and waved his hand. He first used the satellite phone with a relatively stable signal to tell the Countermeasures Bureau that the group was safe, and then asked the three of them.
"I remember that when you went into the mountains to perform missions, you should have brought the satellite phone provided by the bureau, right?"
"..."
Facing Chen Mo's question, Sun Ping suddenly showed a ashamed expression.
The only woman in the team next to her rolled her eyes at Sun Ping, and then said slowly.
"Teacher Mo, this blizzard came too suddenly. In addition, due to some things before, we deviated from the original route. In the unfamiliar section of the road, Sun Ping accidentally fell and fell. The satellite phone I was holding was also lost. I am very sorry for making everyone in the bureau and you worried..."
"That's it."
Chen Mo nodded. Just when he was about to ask more carefully, a soft call of "Baili" suddenly came from the side.
Turned.
I saw the three small messenger birds holding some common acorns and orange fruits.
"Baili~"
Three little messenger birds pushed the food in front of Chen Mo and Sun Ping, obviously wanting Chen Mo and Sun Ping to eat it.
To this.
Sun Ping quickly shook his head.
"No, no, we've already eaten once just now. You should keep these acorns and oranges for yourself."
"Baili..."
The three little messenger birds were obviously still a little confused, and they were obviously not able to understand Sun Ping's words, so they turned their heads and looked at their parents.
at this time.
The male messenger bird that led Chen Mo into the cave before was now standing at the entrance of the cave, discussing something in a low voice with the female messenger bird.
Chen Mo saw it.
The male messenger bird's formerly bulging white pocket-like tail was now completely deflated.
This little guy, as soon as he came back, stored the collected food in the innermost part of the cave.
Since the snow season came suddenly, Messenger Bird and his family were obviously not ready. The food in the cave would not last even a week, let alone survive the snow season.
The male messenger bird, who understands this, is now mentally prepared to go out again, planning to try his luck in the mountains again to see if he can find more food.
after all.
This year's snow season has come too early, and Messenger Bird knows very well that other elven groups may not be fully prepared to enter the snow season, and are most likely also nervously collecting food for the winter.
If it doesn't move faster, the easy-to-find food in the mountains may be snatched away by other elves.
However, although he was anxious, after hearing the sound from behind, the male messenger bird immediately turned his head and waved his hands to Chen Mo and Sun Ping, obviously wanting them to enjoy it. Then when he was about to spread his wings and fly into the blizzard, a gentle voice sounded from behind.
"Messenger Bird, please wait."
"Baili?"
The messenger bird turned its head and looked at the strangely behaving human that it had just rescued with a puzzled look on its face.
Under the gaze of the messenger bird, Chen Mo shouted to the fat purple man next to him.
"Gengar, take your things out."
"Follow Silicon!"
Gengar laughed twice, then jumped into the air like a treasure. Under the admiring eyes of three little messenger birds that were not yet familiar with flying, he quickly moved his two short hands. Inserted into his chest.
"Bah!"
The three little messenger birds, as well as the Mizui baby from the Countermeasures Bureau, all had expressions of extreme shock on their faces at this moment.
Gengar was very satisfied.
But noticing Chen Mo's indifferent look, Geng Gui pursed his lips again, reduced his slightly redundant movements, and quickly took out boxes of Elf Cubes from his body.
Chen Mo opened the box, tore open a pack of general-flavor Elf Cubes, and handed them to the male messenger bird.
"Taste it?"
"Bah."
After hesitating for a moment, the messenger bird carefully took the piece of Elf Cube handed over by Chen Mo and put it into his mouth.
The next second.
Its eyes suddenly lit up.
"Bah!" (Yummy!)
"That's good."
A smile appeared on Chen Mo's face.
"This food is all yours from now on."
"Pah!?"
The messenger bird was about to shake his head and refuse.
But Chen Mo used the waveguide to explain first.
"Just like you took the initiative to bring me here to escape the snowstorm, the food I gave you was something I did casually. You don't have to worry. I still have a lot of such food here, so just accept it."
soon.
With Bird's communication, the Messenger Bird family finally accepted these elf cubes presented by Chen Mo.
This snow season, their family no longer has to worry about food for the time being.
Seeing the uncontrollable expressions of joy on the faces of the Messenger Bird family, Sun Ping also had a smile on his face at this moment.
"The previous situation was really too dangerous. If it hadn't been for the timely rescue of the messenger bird, the three of us and the Mizui baby would have been buried in the snowstorm."
"You have the nerve to say it's dangerous."
The only woman in the team rolled her eyes at Sun Ping again.
"If you hadn't insisted on deviating from the usual patrol route to chase that mysterious elf, we wouldn't have been trapped in the snowy mountains at all!"
"Mysterious elf?"
Chen Mo turned his head and looked at the three of them curiously.
At this time.
In the three-person team, another male young man who had been silent until now suddenly spoke to Chen Mo in an extremely excited tone.
"That elf is so beautiful. It's definitely the most beautiful elf I've ever seen. It's like a god flying out of the snowy mountains. Teacher Mo, I think it might even be a legendary elf." , because there is no record of it in the Elf Illustrated Book!”
