Chapter 50 Miracle
Fengyun and Baozai ate the roasted golden hamster, with relaxed brows and a happy expression. It was obvious that they enjoyed eating very comfortably.
Fengyun admits that he underestimated the gopher, although it looks ugly, it tastes very delicious after roasting.
The meat is tender, very fragrant, and there are many small crispy bones. It tastes crunchy and very enjoyable.
In a short time, all four gophers were eaten, and there were not many bones left.
Bao ate one, and Fengyun ate three.
After the gophers were roasted, Fengyun originally wanted to give one to Lei, but was stopped by Fengyun: "I want you to hunt down the gophers in the valley together, but you can only eat the prey you killed. What you can harvest, you can only go hungry."
After eating the gopher, Fengyun stood up and looked up at the sky. The sun had already sunk behind the mountain, and the sky began to darken.
"Uncle Bao, let's hunt gophers tomorrow, can we?"
"I have no objection, but I want to remind you that you only have seven days, no, five days. You only have five days, and if you fail to kill all the gophers within the stipulated time, you will be punished. My kindness Mind you, the punishment is terrible."
"Uncle Bao, what's the matter with the five-day deadline? I remember it very clearly. When you asked Lei Ge and me to hunt gophers, you didn't mention the deadline, let alone the so-called punishment."
"Really? Maybe I forgot it at the time. Now that I remember it, I'll tell you. Boy Yun, are you unwilling to accept it?"
"I am willing. I just hope that next time Uncle Bao can tell the whole story at once, so as not to make Lei Ge and I feel uneasy. This will also affect our completion of the task, won't it?"
Fengyun didn't refuse, he knew that even if he refused, it wouldn't change the result.
"Definitely, definitely, next time I will tell you everything."
Bao seemed to hear the sarcasm hidden in Feng Yun's words, and a rare flush appeared on his face.
"I'm going to prepare a place for you."
Bao stood up and walked towards the rock wall not far away, preparing to dig a cave for the three of them to rest at night.
At night, it is not a good idea to sleep in the wild, not only may be bitten by poisonous insects, but also may be attacked by wild animals.
"Uncle Bao, I'll go too."
Lei looked at Fengyun with complicated eyes, followed Bao's footsteps, and walked towards the rock wall together.
Fengyun thought for a while, but didn't follow. He picked up his bow, took a dozen arrows, jumped onto the stone wall, and entered the valley again.
He was going to check the situation again.
He proposed to Bao to hunt the gophers tomorrow, but if there were gophers in his field of vision, he would not let them go.
The sky was a little dark, but it didn't have much impact on Fengyun. Even if the snake god's eyes were not activated, he could still see clearly.
After scanning a small area with his eyes, Feng Yun found several piles of new soil.
"It's a little difficult for me and Lei to complete the task for five days, but it's not impossible to succeed."
There was a trace of relaxation in Fengyun's expression.
He discovered a weakness in Gophers.
Although it makes holes in the ground, hides underground, and rarely comes to the ground, it is difficult to find their traces, but their requirements for ventilation seem to be very high.
When he left the valley, he sealed all the vents that the gophers had left on the ground, just to test their reactions.
The new mounds on the ground gave him the answer he was looking for, and as soon as the vents were blocked, they would quickly dig new ones.
Of course, this may just be a habit of the gophers. It doesn't mean that they will be suffocated to death if the vents are blocked, but this does not affect his completion of the task.
Fengyun had already figured out that Storm asked him and Lei to hunt gophers in order to exercise their observation ability, reaction speed, and the accuracy of bows and spears.
If you want to find the traces of the gophers, you need keen observation skills. If you want to hunt the gophers, you need their reaction speed to be fast enough, and the accuracy of the bow and spear determines whether they can hunt successfully.
Fengyun admits that the task assigned to him and Lei by Bao is not easy, especially after he set the time limit as five days.
Even if he discovered the weakness of the gophers, he could force them to show up by blocking the vents, but the range of the valley was too large, and even if there were gophers opening vents on the ground, it would be difficult to find them.
Even if traces of them are found, there is no way to guarantee that there will be a chance to make a move.
He could shoot arrows very far, but he couldn't cover the entire valley. In other words, the gopher mice he found were probably out of his attack range.
Of course, he can run towards the target, but the gopher is very alert and will complete the digging of the vent in the shortest possible time, or simply give up and hide in the ground immediately, and the opportunity is fleeting.
Fengyun walked lightly and walked deep into the valley, holding an arrow in his left hand and a bow in his right hand, wanting to see if there would be any unexpected gains.
Being able to kill one more is tantamount to reducing the burden on him and Lei, and the hope of completing the task is also increased.
Fengyun was lucky, before reaching the end of the valley, he found a total of five gophers, three of which were within his attack range.
He unleashed three blows, all of which hit the target, twice to the head, killing him instantly, and the other he shot through the foreleg.
However, he still killed it before it escaped.
During the whole process, he also saw the fierce side of the gopher.
The gopher that was shot through its front leg began to bite the arrow shaft the next moment it was shot.
When it found that he was rushing over, and the arrow shaft could not be bitten off in a short time, it became impatient, and even bit the foreleg that was pinned by the arrow, and wanted to bite the flesh, so as to gain a chance to escape .
Fengyun shot through one of its eyes with another arrow and directly took its life.
After that, he never got any more.
Fengyun knew the reason, and he blamed the gopher who was shot through the front leg.
In the process of struggling to break free from the arrow shaft, it let out a scream, shrill, ear-piercing, and sharp, which must have been heard by other gophers, frightened them, and dared not come to the ground again.
After jumping on the stone wall, he didn't leave directly, but turned around and looked towards the valley.
His eyes suddenly lit up, the eyeballs turned into vertical pupils, and the flames were still burning, but they were already inside the pupils, no longer emitting light, and they were not facing each other, so the changes in his eyes could not be seen at all.
He activated the eyes of the snake god.
He had a panoramic view of the whole valley, and in his field of vision, there was another situation in the valley. There were many color patches of different shades, which were caused by the difference in temperature.
The most obvious of these are the mounds that the gophers had pushed to the ground to dig the vents, and they were noticeably lighter in color than the rest of the place, meaning they were cooler.
Although it is already autumn, the residual power of the heat has not dissipated, the weather is still relatively hot, and the temperature underground is much lower than the temperature on the surface.
The color of the mounds also has shades, which can help Fengyun deduce when they were pushed out of the ground. The lighter the color, the later it appeared.
After watching for a while, a sneer suddenly emerged from the corner of Fengyun's mouth.
Opening the bow and releasing the arrow, an arrow shot out under the push of the bowstring, and was deeply nailed to a small tree thirty feet away from the stone wall.
Jumping off the stone wall, Feng Yun quickly walked to the small tree, ignored most of the arrows that had been driven into the ground, but drew a short knife from his waist, and cut the small tree in two with a light wave.
Remove the branches and leaves of the small tree, sharpen one end, and use the pointed end to dig around the arrow.
After a while, Fengyun dug a hole, the whole arrow was exposed, and a chubby animal was hanging on the arrow shaft, which was a gopher.
"This time the confidence in completing the task is even greater."
Holding the arrow tail, Fengyun lifted up the gopher, with a satisfied smile on his face.
When he was watching the situation in the valley just now, he suddenly found that the color in one place suddenly became lighter, which caught his attention.
He immediately gathered his eyes and looked over, and found that there was movement in the place where the color became lighter. The ground was moving and rising, and then fresh soil was pushed out of the ground.
There are gophers pushing dirt into the ground.
He immediately had the answer, and then shot an arrow, killing the gopher that hadn't shown up yet.
This is a very useful discovery for him.
He could take advantage of this to spot a gopher early and shoot it before it even emerges.
Feng Yun carried four gophers into the cave dug out by the storm.
Neither Storm nor Lei showed any surprise. From their point of view, this was normal. Fengyun could shoot gophers before, and of course he can now.
Although the snake god's eyes can help Fengyun discover the traces of the gophers in advance, he still manages to complete the task before the deadline, almost overtime.
He is not incapable of completing the task ahead of schedule.
If he wanted to complete the task, it wouldn't take five days, not even five hours, to kill all the gophers.
In the process of using the Zombie Eye, he discovered a new usage of it.
Once, he focused his eyes on the ground, and suddenly found a blurred dark patch in his vision.
In order to figure out what was going on, he tried hard to see clearly, but a strange scene appeared.
The dark spots became clear, and the size was rapidly growing, and finally fixed, no longer changing, but no matter how he looked at it, it seemed familiar.
He grabbed the spear and threw it, the slender point digging deep into the ground, piercing the dark patch.
The dark patch twitched a bit, then stayed still.
He walked towards it, but found that the color of the plaque was fading during the process. Although the fading speed was not fast and it was easy to ignore, it still did not escape his eyes.
He dug the ground and found a gopher impaled on a spear.
He wasn't surprised at all, he had already guessed the identity of the dark plaque.
He was very happy that the Zombie Eyes gave him an ability similar to clairvoyance.
With this discovery, he no longer rushed to kill the gopher, and spent most of his time exploring the eyes of the snake god and practicing spear and archery.
