Chapter 48: Aftermath

  I stared at the little firebird in confusion as it jumped to the side of the big firebird, and then the big firebird slowly shifted its body, moving its wings to one side, completely exposing the two bullet holes.

  The little guy took a look and was startled again, then took a step back. The big firebird called out to it in a soft voice, and the little firebird looked at it before walking back again.

  Suddenly, this guy used its long pointed beak to poke into the firebird's bullet hole. I was startled, but then I also understood that this guy is too clever!

  They can even use their long beaks to pick up bullets? It seems that the wisdom of animals is not low either, it's just that some animals' potential has not been tapped.

  But when I saw the big bird trembling all over, I knew how painful it was. However, it never made a sound, just looking at the little bird removing bullets for it.

  Seeing this, I immediately swam over and leaned against it with my own body, so that it would feel a bit better. It looked at me gratefully and then closed its eyes slightly.

  Suddenly, the little bird quickly pulled out a bullet shell from its mouth. I looked and indeed it was a bullet head that it had been holding in its beak. It shook it off and the bullet fell to the ground with a "ting" sound.

  After seeing the success, the little guy suddenly jumped up and was excitedly inviting us to share the credit. The big firebird called out to it lightly, as if praising it, then called on it to pick another one.

  The little guy who got praised, this time didn't have the timidity from earlier, and again reached into the second bullet hole of the big firebird, as if he had already become numb to the pain. This time, the big firebird didn't feel the same pain as before.

  Soon, another crisp sound, the second bullet was also picked out by Xiao Huo Niao and thrown to the ground. At this time, I felt relieved, it seemed that this method really worked.

  Humans have their own ways of healing wounds, while animals surprisingly also have their own survival methods, and I further understood the wisdom of animals.

  At this moment, the giant ape and the cobra suddenly came in. I took a look, the giant ape was dragging a dead wild deer, while the cobra had two small fish in its mouth.

  It turns out that the two of them went out hunting, I know that the wild deer dragged back by Jù Hěn is definitely our food, and the fish in Yǎn Jiàn Shé's mouth is for Xiaǒ Huǒ Niǎo to eat. It seems that Dà Huǒ Niǎo and I were injured, but Jù Yuán itself was not seriously injured, so they both became our babysitters.

  When the giant ape and the snake had just put down their food, this little guy didn't go to eat the food, but instead suddenly rushed onto the giant ape's head, chirping "Squeak! Squeak!" at it.

  But I soon understood what it meant, the little guy was addicted to pulling bullets, and when he saw that the giant ape had a wound on its buttocks, he also wanted to pull out the bullet for it.

  After a while, the giant ape also understood the meaning of the little firebird and immediately let the little firebird remove the bullets for it. However, the skin of this big guy was thick, so the bullet didn't go in too deep, making it easy for the little firebird to take out the bullets.

  After taking it out, the giant ape looked back at its wound and then gave a low growl to the little firebird as if to thank it. At this time, the little firebird flew over, picked up the two fish on the ground with one bite, and swallowed them in one gulp.

  Originally, the little guy saw the wound on my tail and wanted to take out the bullet for me. I was so amused that this guy had really become addicted, thinking he was a doctor. But where did the bullet come from in my tail? When the bullet hit me earlier, it was because of the close distance and hitting the very end of my tail, so the bullet had already passed through and didn't stay inside my body.

  At this time, the giant ape and the glasses snake also let me and the great firebird use food, but I didn't rush, instead picked up the wild deer on the ground and sent it to the side of the great firebird, letting it peck at some first, after all, it was now injured too heavily, not daring to move randomly.

  The large bird looked at us with gratitude, then without hesitation, it started pecking away. Afterwards, it let me eat some, actually I was already hungry, these past few days I hadn't really eaten well.

  As soon as I saw it, I didn't eat anymore. I immediately pounced on it, tore off a piece of meat, and hastily swallowed it down. It wasn't until I had swallowed almost half the wild deer that I was satisfied. However, at this time, I was also shocked by my own appetite. When did I become so capable of eating?

  But I didn't think that much, after eating, I lay down to digest the food, probably because they had eaten outside, so when they saw us resting, they also lay down to rest.

  After being nourished by the solar flares and regulating my own breathing, until the seventh day, I found that my injury had fully recovered, and there was no residual internal injury, which made me very happy.

  During this time, the giant ape did not come to absorb the sunflower's light, it knew that we two wounded needed it, so it quietly went out with the glasses snake to hunt for us, taking care of the two wounded and one young.

  After I recovered, I took another look at the injury of the big firebird. As soon as I looked, I was startled. Previously, I hadn't noticed, but now I felt that there wasn't a single thread of vital energy being released from its body. I asked it what was going on, and it just shook its head, indicating that it didn't know either.

  If the evil energy is not released, then there are only two possibilities: either the ferocious beast itself has retracted its energy, or the energy on the ferocious beast's body has been dispersed, turning it into an ordinary wild animal.

  The Phoenix was injured and should not have been able to control its own vital energy, so it's impossible that none of it leaked out. That is to say, its vital energy had been dispersed.

  Thinking of this, I felt a pang in my heart and immediately told it about the matter. After hearing me out, it also felt a pang at first, but soon it turned around to comfort me, saying that being able to keep our lives and be together with its child was already a blessing from heaven.

  I know it's consoling me, from the king of the sky to an ordinary bird, who wouldn't be sad? It was transformed like this because it saved me, which really makes my heart ache and feel guilty.

  At first, if I hadn't escaped to this place, such a thing wouldn't have happened. However, the giant ape and the large firebird persuaded me together that if I hadn't come at that time, they would have been killed by each other in their last self-destructive fight, how could they still be jumping around like now?

  I thought so, but I still transferred all the hatred to Old Man Liu's family. If he hadn't sent troops to surround and kill me for the sake of his damned grandson, the Great Firebird wouldn't have lost its spiritual energy and become an ordinary wild beast.

  This grudge, I must avenge it. No matter who you are or how great your power is, none of that matters to me. What's important is, you have to die.

  Fortunately, the injury of the big firebird has healed. After losing a lot of blood and energy, this former fierce beast has become tame.

  However, after this incident, we were very happy. Two ferocious beasts, a spectacled cobra and two beautiful birds of paradise chased each other in the flower clusters among the hills.

  From a distance, it looks a bit strange, but it's also a beautiful landscape. Since this thing passed, I've also relaxed a lot. For now, I'll accompany them for a quiet period of time before thinking of ways to leave this place.

  However, while we were having fun, something happened at the Liu's house. Mr. Liu was looking gloomy and asked Old Hou beside him, "Old Hou, how is the person you are looking for?"

  "Hou Lao replied: 'Old master, I've already found the person. His kung fu is not inferior to mine. Just wait for your orders!'"

  Old Liu's face was filled with anger, and he said: "This group of good-for-nothings, went to six small groups, not only did they fail to catch that vicious snake, but they also lost so many team members. This time... Alas! I reckon it can't be escaped!"

  Hou Lao said: "Old master, this matter may not be as serious as you think."

  Mr. Liu suddenly looked much older, shook his head, and seemed to be muttering to himself: "This matter, no one is clearer than me, I've been in this circle for so many years, and there are still many people looking for my handle, now this matter, haha!"

  However, in another room, an old man with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes said to the bodyguard beside him, "Hmph! This guy actually dared to use the troops to avenge his personal grievances. The Liu family really doesn't put us old guys in their eyes!"
