Chapter 49

Yan Mo is actually very frightened. Anyone who is rubbed against the face for the first time by a huge beak that is hard, cold, and a bit of gold in the dark will probably not feel any emotion other than panic, right?

It's not that he doesn't want to attack, it's just that his arm hurts too much, the injury is still affecting him, and it's hard for him to raise his hand.

As for why he didn't shout and kick the bird's face, because he knew that when facing any animal, especially birds, he must not show a fierce attack, and even some actions that would make the opponent misunderstand. . Of course, if you are at a distance before being caught, you can use violent movements to scare the opponent away.

Although doing so may still not escape the end of being eaten, at least it will not immediately cause this human-faced bird to counterattack and bào anger at him.

He didn't run away either, because the edge of the bird's nest was beside him, and it was difficult for him to shrink a little further, so he simply didn't move.

Even when the bird's beak was pecking at his face, he still thought very naively: if it's a big deal, give it a few bites, anyway, I won't die in a while, and when I recover my strength, even if I don't know where the bird's xué is. , I can also find a chance to smash you! As long as I'm still alive, let's wait and see!

And now... he realizes that he seems to have made the right bet.

His quietness prevented the bird from attacking him, and the other party didn't seem to want to peck at him immediately.

Because the bird's head with only a human face rubbed against him again, this time not with its mouth, but with the side covered with softer feathers on the top of the head near the ears.

Then, the human-faced bird with golden feathers squatted down beside Yan Mo, and was close to his body.

Yan Mo,..." So this means that you don't plan to eat him for the time being?

Ten minutes, twenty minutes... Yan Mo fell asleep.

It's too tiring to stare at the enemy all the time, and his lying position is not suitable for fighting, and the grass and feathers cushioned in this bird's nest are better than the shòu that was laid directly on the ground when he slept for a while. The skin is not sure how much softer it is.

The bird's body next to him was too warm, the high walls of the bird's nest on all sides blocked the cold wind outside, and a little bit of the sun's afterglow shone on him...

Such great hardware conditions, coupled with his slightly blood loss body, even if his stomach growled from hunger, he still threw himself into the arms of the Sleeping God without hesitation.

Shortly after Yan Mo fell asleep, the human-faced bird stood up, looked down at him, and saw the little two-legged monster laying there and drooling, it raised its head and made a grunt that seemed very happy." Voice.

The human-faced bird suddenly jumped slightly, spreading its wings and slipping out of the bird's nest.

The red glow on the horizon gradually disappeared, and the black veil representing danger and tranquility gradually shrouded the entire sky.

The human-faced bird that had a full meal outside flew into the nest with a bunch of yellow-colored fruits in its mouth before the night really fell. Seeing that the little two-legged monster was still sleeping, it threw the fruits to the side of the nest, next to the little two-legged monster. The two-legged monster squatted down, his head shrunk, the bird's eyes closed, and he fell asleep.

Day and night passed, the morning mist rose, and when the light gradually brightened, Yan Mo moved.

For a while, he didn't know where he was.

Slept well this night!

Uh..." His neck hurts! Because he has been sleeping in the same position, not only does his neck hurt, but his shoulders and back are also full of soreness.

correct! Human-faced bird!

Yan Mo, who had moved halfway, froze.

Looking up, the big bird was not in the nest.

Great! Chance!

Yan Mo quickly got up regardless of the pain in his body.

Although the nest wall of the bird's nest is relatively high, because it is a bowl-shaped structure, it is not impossible to climb.

Yan Mo didn't even bother to look at the entire nest, he was digging and scratching, crawling and crawling hard, and finally reached the top edge of the bird's nest, his head sticking out...

The endless grasslands can't be seen at a glance, because the weather is bad today, and the mountains in the distance are shrouded in smoke.

The river below looks like a gray-blue dragon with a lighter body and a lighter color. Because the sun is not out today, there is not much reflection on the water surface. From a distance, it looks like there is no flow.

There are herds of live animals in the grasslands, like wild horses? But those wild horses were far and far away from him, if it wasn't for his eyesight, he wouldn't even be able to tell that the black mass a little bigger than a bean was a horse. And what is said here is not a horizontal distance, but a vertical distance.

This height, by visual inspection, is definitely not less than two kilometers.

No wonder the man-faced bird dared to leave him alone in the nest without fear of him escaping.

This bird's nest was actually built on the top of a high mountain... on a huge stone pillar that was almost as thick up and down!

And this huge stone pillar is standing on the edge of the cliff. The south side of the stone pillar, which is the side he is looking at now, is perpendicular to the mountain below. If he jumps from this side, he will almost be able to wrap it when it hits the ground. Dumplings, I just don't know if he can survive if it's broken like that.

From what he could see, he found that the outermost edge of the bowl-shaped nest even extended beyond the nest seat below."

Said that even if he climbed out, there was no place to stay.

Yan Mo didn't give up, moved slowly, and moved to the opposite side to look at it again.

He first looked at the vertical height of the bird's nest and the ground here.

...Oh, actually, it's really easy to escape from this bird's nest. As long as you don't be afraid of the height of more than 100 meters perpendicular to the nearest ground, and jump directly to the next, you will be free.

Maybe he could tame the human-faced bird and let him take him out?

For his desperate survival, Yan Mo, who had jumped directly from disappointment to God, pretended to be humming the last song of one of his favorite singers before he died. He looked into the distance on the side of the bird's nest.

About three minutes later, the human-faced bird that went out to hunt came back, and from a distance, he saw the little two-legged monster with unkempt hair, blood and dirt on his face, who looked young, holding the edge of the bird's nest tightly with both hands. , was staring blankly outside the bird's nest.

Chapter 36 Salt Lakes and Salt Ponds

What did he see? !

Just about a mile ahead of the stone pillar, there is an arc-shaped sea of ​​splendid purple-red grass that can hardly be seen at both ends.

In the embrace of the sea of ​​purple-red grass with a diameter of at least half a mile on the opposite side, there is a narrow and long eye-shaped lake that is slightly sunken, and neither ends can be seen.

Behind the long and narrow lake is a grassland, and in the distance of the grassland, you can also see a super large lake with an area of ​​unknown size.

And the stone pillar he was on seemed to be in the middle, the top and the edge of a large arc. The fan-shaped land with a radius of nearly one mile around the stone pillar forms an irregular cone-shaped hill, and the stone pillar is the tip of the cone.

Looking from the stone pillar, the land on the right side of the arc is about a kilometer away from the dense forest that completely blocks the line of sight.

There are also many land trees on the left side of the arc, but it is relatively low, and several rolling hills can be seen connecting with the mountains in the distance.

Right in front of the stone pillar, that is, the north he is facing now, in the distance, you can still see the shadowy mountains.

It turns out that this mountain, which is about 2,000 meters high from the grassland below the south, is actually a plain, or more correctly, a plateau?

Regardless of whether this piece of land is a plain, a plateau, or a half-basin, according to this trend of extending to the flanks and the front, even if it reaches the distant high mountains, how vast should this piece of land be?

Yan Mo knocked his head, the terrain seemed a bit familiar, as if he had seen similar terrain in the original world?

I remembered! It's just that in his memory, the plateau-like cliff is not another plain, but the ocean.

It is said that this kind of terrain is the result of the earth's crustal changes and the land squeezing each other. As a result, a part of the land rose, and after the sea water sank, it became a continent with a high drop from the sea level, and the part that fell was still the ocean.

So, was this once part of the ocean? Or is this terrain originally, and there is no ocean at all?

Yan Mo only knows six orifices in geology, and he doesn't bother to study them. No matter what kind of terrain change can cause the long and narrow lake in front of him, that lake already exists.

Yes, the point is the lake! That lake, surrounded by a large sea of ​​purple-red grass, with narrow eyes-like ends at both ends, was the real reason for his sluggishness!

No, in fact, he wasn't in a daze either. What he saw in his eyes was the enthusiasm for seeing great wealth, and the full surprise that he would have good luck if he survived the catastrophe!

The warriors of the Primordial Tribe are looking for salt so hard, and for this reason, they risked their lives to come out with him, a liar and priest, just for that little hope.

The She Clan attacked the Yanshan Clan, and so many people died, so many people had to flee from a safe place to live, just for that little bit of salt.

In addition to the plains at the bottom of the mountains in the south, in this vast land that may account for 10 to 20 percent of the area of ​​his former world, China, I don't know how many primitive and developing indigenous people are looking for salt.

Salt! Salt! Salt!

He was taken away by a human-faced bird. From despair to hope, to when he thought there was no hope of temporarily escaping, he actually saw a huge salt lake covering a vast area under his own prison.

The shore of this salt lake and some shallow places have naturally accumulated a flower-like salt pile crystal.

The salt crystals emit a faint red color, and the clear lake water is also from shallow to slightly darker red. This color is probably related to a certain mineral contained in the lake.

Just like the famous red salt in his original world, also known as Ji salt. This salt is famous for its large particles, few impurities and fresh and strong taste.

He no longer has to worry about white hair growing on his body due to lack of salt, laughing.

As for whether the salt can be eaten or not, he is not worried at all.

Because even if the salt can't be eaten, he doesn't have to worry about lack of salt.

Because he knew the large purplish-red plants that grew into the sea of ​​grass, which were one of the salt canopy, also known as Suaeda salsa, huáng mustard and so on.
