Chapter 262 The Vanishing Giant Vulture
Chapter 262 The Vanishing Giant Vulture
"Giant Eagle? It's been a long time, right?"
"Yeah, why do I feel like I haven't seen a giant eagle for half a month? Where did that bird go?"
"No wonder A-Lin asked me if I had seen a giant eagle a few days ago."
"Master, where is the giant eagle?"
Mu Qingqing sighed slightly, "I don't know where the giant eagle has gone."
In the battle with Shimai, the giant eagle also suffered a lot of injuries. Mu Qingqing thought that the females in the tribe had healed the giant eagle. However, later on, the tribesmen told her that the giant eagle had run to a corner of the forest to lick its wounds alone.
Only then did Mu Qingqing realize that the giant eagle not only had external injuries, but also internal injuries. No wonder the giant eagle's flying speed had slowed down a lot during this period.
For Mu Qingqing, the giant eagle is more than just a mount.
The giant eagle is very intelligent and has its own little temper. Mu Qingqing has already treated it as a member of the family.
So she ran to the giant eagle's nest as soon as possible. The giant eagle's nest was also in the forest. The giant eagle loved water and always submerged its wings completely in the pool, leaving only its head exposed and squinting its eyes comfortably.
So Mu Qingqing specially dug a pool in the forest, covered it with tiles, and there was a stream next to it, just right to divert water into it.
When the giant vulture saw the swimming pool, it flapped its wings excitedly, blowing all the orcs nearby into the stream. Then it tilted its neck and laughed.
However, when Mu Qingqing went there, the giant eagle was not in the pool, and the water was not as clear, but light pink. It was obvious that the giant eagle was injured and blood was dripping into the pool.
The orcs didn't know much about the giant eagle and were full of speculation.
"Maybe he ran out to play by himself and will come back after a while?"
Lang Yi was lying on the swing and sneered when he heard this.
"As long as the giant eagle can be tamed and used by humans, there is no need to play with it, unless it is a young giant eagle."
"Then, could it be that it encountered a new giant vulture and ran away with someone?" As soon as the orc said this, sighs arose around him.
The giant eagle is talking like a love affair.
Giant vultures are hermaphrodites, so even though spring has arrived, they will never go into estrus like wild animals.
So it’s really hard to find the reason.
Mu Qingqing sighed and sat on the swing, swinging back and forth.
The tribesmen are still speculating and discussing.
Until a weak voice was heard.
"Could it be that the giant eagle knew it was dying?"
Mu Qingqing paused in her shaking movements and looked up at the source of the voice.
A half-grown eagle cub was lying at the window looking out.
Seeing this, his father glared at him.
"You're not sleeping yet. Don't you know you have to go to school tomorrow?"
It was just like when Mu Qingqing was once scolded by her family, which was inexplicably funny.
She looked at the kid in a gentle voice, "Ah You, why do you say that?"
There were many little ones in the tribe, but Mu Qingqing could only remember a few of them. She remembered Ayou because the giant eagle was with Ayou every time she called it over.
The man and the bird didn't know when they started playing together.
Ah You mustered up the courage to speak.
"The last time I saw the giant vulture, it wasn't in good condition. It was coughing and coughing up blood. I parted its feathers and didn't see any injuries..."
Ayou's memory is not coherent. His father said that when he was a child, Ayou learned to fly very slowly and even fell on his head. Later, he became the laughing stock of the Eagle tribe and was often bullied, so his parents took him away from the original tribe.
No wonder Ayou likes the giant eagle soaring in the sky.
"When the giant eagle flew away, it looked at you for a long time."
Mu Qingqing was startled and pointed at her nose.
"I?"
Ah You nodded, "Yes, Lord Beast, the giant eagle was lying in the woods watching you, and you were teaching the little cheetah to walk on the beach..."
Mu Qingqing suddenly remembered what happened that day, it had been almost half a month.
"Then I went to look for it, and when it saw me coming, it flew away and never appeared again."
Mu Qingqing suddenly remembered the dog Dahuang that she raised in the countryside in her previous life. The dog also knew that he was dying, so he secretly ran away to a place where his owner could not find him and waited to die.
Could it be that the giant eagle is the same?
Mu Qingqing's heart sank at once.
There were only a few giant vultures in Wanshou City, and two of them died in the war.
The only ones alive now are the giant eagles in Hu Ze's and Mu Qingqing's hands.
The roads are much smoother now, and generally speaking, you can just drive to get around. The use of giant vultures is far less frequent than before.
Mu Qingqing didn't realize that the giant eagle had disappeared for such a long time, and she felt a little ashamed.
After thinking it over again and again, Mu Qingqing said something.
"Tomorrow, Yingjun, Yingyou, Yingshen, come with me to take a look in the direction of the mine. There is a swamp there."
To the east of the Fuxi tribe is the direction of Wanshou City, to the west is the Poseidon Tribe, and to the south is the mine where the coolies often go.
The mine was discovered as early as when Mu Qingqing first arrived.
Or iron ore.
There is no iron ore in her space, only finished iron objects, so the iron ore plays a huge role.
Behind the mine is a foggy swamp. The tribesmen have never been there and have no idea what the situation is like there.
After Mu Qingqing finished speaking, Ying Jun and the others responded with a "yes", especially Ying You. He liked giant eagles in the first place and was of course willing to go find the missing giant eagle by himself.
Mo Xiao suppressed his anger, dragged Mu Qingqing back to the cabin, and then started to settle accounts with her.
He didn't understand why Mu Qingqing was struggling all the time even though she was pregnant, and she finally had some peaceful life.
“It was just a bird.”
Seeing that Mo Xiao looked unhappy, Mu Qingqing pouted and looked aggrieved.
Of course she knew that the giant vulture was just a bird, but she couldn't just ignore it.
Just like her previous dream about the north, because of that dream, she became alert so that she did not reach the point of no return.
In recent days, she had another dream. She dreamed that the sky was black. In her dream, she thought it was night, but in fact, there were giant vultures soaring in the sky, covering the entire sky.
Their eyes were red, and they were not afraid of the power of bullets. They swooped down, picked up their tribesmen, and slammed them heavily to the ground!
It was bloody and horrifying!
Not only that, the sky above the entire tribe was shrouded in light green gas, like methane.
Some of the tribesmen coughed up blood, some danced wildly with red eyes, like madmen, and some grabbed their arms desperately, leaving bloody marks so deep that the bones were visible.
These things made Mu Qingqing think more.
It was also because of these dreams that she went to look for the giant eagle, but the giant eagle just disappeared.
Mu Qingqing took this matter to heart.
After hearing these words, Mo Xiao fell silent.
He gently touched Mu Qingqing's cheek and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Is this the price you paid for coming to the Orc Continent?"
Mu Qingqing blinked and leaned into his arms.
Maybe so.
There is always something that needs her to solve, and there is always danger coming!
